Charleston, S.C. (February 12, 2014) - Blackbaud, Inc. (NASDAQ: BLKB), a leading global provider of software and services for nonprofits, today announced financial results for its fourth quarter and full year-ended December 31, 2013.

“In the fourth quarter, the Blackbaud team delivered a solid finish to a very strong overall year in 2013. Each of our business units performed well, with double-digit growth of recurring revenue in both our enterprise and general markets business units. We continue to see our customers shifting toward subscription and cloud-based products and services. Our continued product optimization and innovation efforts are designed to seize opportunities presented by this trend while we support our leading product and service offering to the non-profit organization marketplace,” stated Tony Boor, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Blackbaud.

“Our financial goals for 2014 reflect a heightened level of operating investments in areas that we expect will fuel accelerated growth, strengthen our competitive advantages, and enable greater efficiencies throughout our global operations. Many of these investments will provide significant leverage in our business model, which we expect will increase growth and profitability in 2015, and beyond,” concluded, Mr. Gianoni.

These statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Although Blackbaud attempts to be accurate in making these forward-looking statements, it is possible that future circumstances might differ from the assumptions on which such statements are based. In addition, other important factors that could cause results to differ materially include the following: the ability to attract and retain key personnel; management of integration of acquired companies and other risks associated with acquisitions; general economic risks; uncertainty regarding increased business and renewals from existing customers; continued success in sales growth; risks associated with successful implementation of multiple integrated software products; risks related to our dividend policy and stock repurchase program, including potential limitations on our ability to grow and the possibility that we might discontinue payment of dividends; risks relating to restrictions imposed by the credit facility; risks associated with management of growth; lengthy sales and implementation cycles, particularly in larger organizations; technological changes that make our products and services less competitive; and the other risk factors set forth from time to time in the SEC filings for Blackbaud, copies of which are available free of charge at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or upon request from Blackbaud's investor relations department.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Blackbaud has provided in this release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. This information includes non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. Blackbaud uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating Blackbaud's ongoing operational performance. Blackbaud believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing its financial results from period to period with other companies in Blackbaud's industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be completely comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to potential differences in the exact method of calculation between companies. Non-GAAP financial measures discussed above exclude items such as a write-down of Convio deferred revenue, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangibles arising from business combinations, acquisition integration costs, restructuring costs, and CEO and employee severance, because they are not directly related to our performance in any particular period, but are for our long-term benefit over multiple periods. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect our ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful period-to-period comparison and analysis of trends in our business.

Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. As previously mentioned, a reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included below in this press release.
