SANTA CLARA, Calif., May 30, 2013 – Palo Alto Networks, Inc. (NYSE: PANW) today announced financial results for its fiscal third quarter of 2013 ended April 30, 2013.

Total revenue for the fiscal third quarter grew 54 percent year-over-year to $101.3 million, compared with $65.7 million in the fiscal third quarter of 2012. GAAP net loss for the fiscal third quarter was $7.3 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared with net income of $0.8 million, or $0.00 per diluted share, in the fiscal third quarter of 2012.

Palo Alto Networks recorded fiscal third quarter non-GAAP net income of $4.5 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, compared with non-GAAP net income of $4.7 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, in the fiscal third quarter of 2012. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP information is contained in the tables below.

“In our fiscal third quarter, we continued to gain market share, rapidly acquire new customers and extend our penetration within existing customers,” said Mark McLaughlin, president and chief executive officer of Palo Alto Networks. “Revenue grew 54 percent year-over-year despite a tough macroeconomic environment and, during the quarter, we added over 1,000 new end-customers for the sixth consecutive quarter.”

Commenting on the company’s financial results, Steffan Tomlinson, chief financial officer of Palo Alto Networks, added, “On a sequential basis in the fiscal third quarter, gross margin and operating margin improved and we grew deferred revenue 17% to reach $219.3 million.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including statements regarding continued momentum in the company’s business. There are a significant number of factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from statements made in this press release, including: Palo Alto Networks’ limited operating history, particularly as a new public company; risks associated with Palo Alto Networks’ rapid growth, particularly outside of the U.S.; rapidly evolving technological developments in the market for network security products; and general market, political, economic and business conditions.

Additional risks and uncertainties that could affect Palo Alto Networks’ financial results are included under the captions “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in the company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A filed with the SEC on March 5, 2013 which is available on the company’s website at investors.paloaltonetworks.com and on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Additional information will also be set forth in other filings that the company makes with the SEC from time to time. All forward-looking statements in this press release are based on information available to the company as of the date hereof, and Palo Alto Networks does not assume any obligation to update the forward-looking statements provided to reflect events that occur or circumstances that exist after the date on which they were made.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Palo Alto Networks has provided in this release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). The company uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors as an additional tool to evaluate ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the company’s financial results with other companies in its industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures, and should be read only in conjunction with the company’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the company’s non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release, and investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation.

Non-GAAP net income and diluted net income per share. Palo Alto Networks defines non-GAAP net income as net income (loss) plus share-based compensation expense less the related tax effects. Non-GAAP diluted net income per share is defined as non-GAAP net income divided by the diluted weighted-average shares outstanding. Palo Alto Networks considers these non-GAAP financial measures to be useful metrics for management and investors because they exclude the effect of share-based compensation expense so that management and investors can compare the company’s “core business operating results,” meaning its operating performance excluding not only share-based compensation but also, from time to time, discrete charges that are infrequent in nature, over multiple periods. The company also excludes from non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted net income per share the tax effects, including income tax and payroll tax, associated with share-based compensation in order to provide a complete picture of the company’s recurring core business operating results. Without excluding these tax effects, investors would only see the gross effect that excluding these expenses had on the company’s operating results. There are a number of limitations related to the use of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted net income per share versus net income (loss) and diluted net income (loss) per share calculated in accordance with GAAP. First, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted net income per share exclude share-based compensation expense and related tax effects. Share-based compensation has been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in the company’s business. Second, share-based compensation is an important part of Palo Alto Networks employees’ compensation and

impacts their performance. Third, the components of the costs that Palo Alto Networks excludes in its calculation of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted net income per share may differ from the components that its peer companies exclude when they report their non-GAAP results of operations. Palo Alto Networks compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted net income per share and evaluating non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted net income per share together with net income (loss) and diluted net income (loss) per share calculated in accordance with GAAP. In the future, the company may also exclude non-recurring expenses and other expenses that do not reflect the company’s core business operating results.
