Interactive Intelligence Reports First-Quarter 2015 Financial Results

 

·

Cloud revenues increased 61 percent, Recurring revenues up 25 percent from 2014 first quarter

·

$13.3 million generated in cash from operations

·

Guidance maintained for 2015 cloud revenue and contracted annual recurring revenues 

 

INDIANAPOLIS, May 4, 2015 -- Interactive Intelligence Group Inc. (Nasdaq: ININ), a global provider of software and services for collaboration, communications, and customer engagement, has announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2015.

 

“We hit our marks in the first quarter and expect to continue doing so for the year,” said Dr. Donald E. Brown, Interactive Intelligence founder and CEO. “In addition to steady growth in revenues from our cloud solutions, we saw improved efficiencies in our cloud delivery operations, increased sales to new customers, growth in the number of large transactions, healthy expansion sales, and an up-tick in orders for our on-premises technology.

 

The launch in March of our new PureCloud Collaborate offering was enthusiastically received. We are proceeding with additional rollouts that extend this new PureCloud multi-tenant platform, as capabilities for unified communications and customer engagement are set for release in the next ninety days.  Based on the large and growing pipeline of opportunities globally, we are reaffirming our guidance for contracted annual recurring revenue growth of 40 percent for 2015.”    

 

“Our strategy is to meet the developing demand for integrated business collaboration, communications, and customer engagement solutions.  We’ve been successfully gaining share in the contact center market for years. Now we’re moving aggressively to also pursue adjacent opportunities that we believe will enable us to significantly expand our total addressable market. Our approach, however, will remain the same: develop superior innovative technology and continually build the capacity of a global sales and support network,” Brown concluded.

 

First Quarter 2015 Financial Highlights:

 

·

Revenues: Total revenues were $89.5 million, an increase of 13 percent from the 2014 first quarter.  Recurring revenues, which include cloud subscriptions and support fees from on-premises licenses, increased 25 percent to $54.2 million and accounted for 61 percent of total revenues, up from 55 percent last year. Revenues from Cloud subscriptions were $21.0 million, an increase of 61 percent from $13.1 million in the first quarter of 2014. Licenses and hardware revenues were $21.6 million and Services revenues $13.6 million, compared to $22.8 million and $13.2 million, respectively, in the same quarter last year.

 

·

Orders: During the first quarter of 2015, Interactive Intelligence added 61 new customers, including 26 new cloud customers, compared to 54 new customers during the first quarter of last year.   Contracts signed over $250,000 increased to 40 in the first quarter of 2015 from 34 in the first quarter of last year. Contracted annual recurring revenue for cloud contracts was down year-over-year because of two very large orders received in the 2014 first quarter. Excluding these two contracts, growth in contracted annual recurring revenue was 44 percent year-over-year. Orders for on-premises licenses increased by 20 percent from the same quarter last year.

 

·

Operating Loss: GAAP operating loss was $4.8 million, in the first quarters of 2015 and 2014. Non-GAAP* operating loss was $1.1 million, compared to a loss of $1.0 million in the same quarter last year.

 

·

Net Loss: GAAP net loss was $3.5 million, or $0.16 per diluted share based on 21.4 million weighted average diluted shares outstanding, compared to GAAP net loss of $2.6 million, or $0.12 per diluted share based on 20.7 million weighted average diluted shares outstanding in the same quarter of 2014. The first quarter 2015 GAAP results included certain non-recurring tax credits of $1.8 million.

 

Non-GAAP net loss was $863,000, or $0.04 per diluted share for the first quarter, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $393,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, in the same quarter last year. Pro forma income taxes are based on a long-term projected effective tax rate of 35 percent.

 

·

Balance sheet: As of March 31, 2015, the company had cash and cash equivalents and investments of $64.9 million, up from $61.7 million as of December 31, 2014.  Total deferred revenue increased to $111.6 million from $110.7 million at the end of last year.

 


 

·

Cash Flows: The company generated $13.3 million from operating activities in the first quarter, compared to $5.3 million in the 2014 quarter.  Capital expenditures totaled $6.3 million, primarily for office space expansion, office equipment, and data center infrastructure, and $5.6 million of PureCloud development costs were capitalized.

Non-GAAP Measures

 

The non-GAAP measures shown in this release include revenue which was not recognized on a GAAP basis due to purchase accounting adjustments, exclude non-cash stock-based compensation expense, certain acquisition-related expenses, the amortization of certain intangible assets related to acquisitions by the company, non-cash expense related to establishing the valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets, and adjustment for non-GAAP income tax expense. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included with the financial information included in this press release. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions, and expenses related to the valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets are non-cash and non-GAAP income tax expense is pro forma based on non-GAAP earnings. Management believes that the presentation of non-GAAP results, when shown in conjunction with corresponding GAAP measures, provides useful information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends related to the company's results of operations. Further, our management believes that these non-GAAP measures improve management's and investors' ability to compare the company's financial performance with other companies in the technology industry. Because stock-based compensation expense, certain acquisition-related expenses and amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions amounts can vary significantly between companies, it is useful to compare results excluding these amounts. Our management also reviews financial statements that exclude stock-based compensation expense, certain acquisition-related expenses, amortization of intangibles amounts related to acquisitions, expense related to the valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets and pro forma income tax expense for its internal budgets.


 

 

Forward Looking Statements

 

This release may contain certain forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the following: rapid technological changes and competitive pressures in the industry; worldwide economic conditions and their impact on customer purchasing decisions; the company's ability to maintain profitability; to manage successfully its growth; to manage successfully its increasingly complex third-party relationships resulting from the software and hardware components being licensed or sold with its solutions; to maintain successful relationships with certain suppliers which may be impacted by the competition in the technology industry; to maintain successful relationships with its current and any new partners; to maintain and improve its current products; to develop new products; to protect its proprietary rights and sensitive customer information adequately; to improve the company’s brand and name recognition; to successfully integrate acquired businesses; and other factors described in the company's SEC filings, including the company's latest annual report on Form 10-K.
