FalconStor Software Announces Third Quarter 2014 Results
MELVILLE, N.Y., October 29, 2014—FalconStor Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: FALC), a market leader in data protection and migration, today announced financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2014.
“The 2014 calendar year has been an inflection point for FalconStor,” said Gary Quinn, FalconStor President and CEO. “Throughout the year, we have stabilized our employees, partners and customers with updates of our products, discussions of new products on the horizon, and the launching of a new FalconStor image and message: #BEFREE. As we have indicated during the last twelve months, the path to profitability and growth will not be a straight line. I am pleased with our performance in EMEA, Asia and Japan, but not pleased with our Americas sales performance, where we had a significant decline quarter over quarter and year over year. We are putting in place new go-to-market strategies for the new products we intend to announce in Q1 2015. We believe that improvements to our Americas sales performance will result from that improved go-to-market plan, and will complement the transitions we have made in EMEA, Asia and Japan. We remain optimistic for the long-term prospects for FalconStor.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The Company’s management refers to these non-GAAP financial measures in making operating decisions because they provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operating performance. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate management’s internal comparisons to the Company’s historical operating results and comparisons to competitors’ operating results. We include these non-GAAP financial measures (which should be viewed as a supplement to, and not a substitute for, their comparable GAAP measures) in this press release because we believe they are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency into the supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. The non-GAAP financial measures exclude (i) costs associated with the Company’s class action and derivative lawsuits, government investigations, and related legal fees, (ii) restructuring costs, (iii) effects of our Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock, (iv) impact of the tax benefits realized from the reversal of uncertain tax positions due to the expiration of applicable statutes of limitations and (v) noncash stock-based compensation charges and any potential tax effects. For a reconciliation of our GAAP and non-GAAP financial results, please refer to our Non-GAAP Operating Data GAAP Reconciliation, presented in this release.
