Item 8.01 Other Events.

On February 28, 2017, Marin Software Incorporated (the “Company”) issued guidance that the Company’s non-GAAP loss from operations for the first quarter ending March 31, 2017 would be between $(5.6) to $(5.1) million (“Q1 Operating Loss Guidance”) and non-GAAP net loss per share for the first quarter ending March 31, 2017 would be between $(0.14) to $(0.13) (“Q1 Net Loss Per Share Guidance”).

On May 9, 2017, the Company hosted a conference call to announce the financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017 (the “Earnings Call”).  As stated on the Earnings Call, the Company’s non-GAAP loss from operations for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017 was $(3.2) million (“Q1 Operating Loss Results”) and non-GAAP net loss per share for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017 was $(0.08) (“Q1 Net Loss Per Share Results”), as stated on the Earnings Call. On the Earnings Call, the Company stated that the amount by which the Q1 Operating Loss Results exceeded the high end of the Q1 Operating Loss Guidance was $1.1 million, when it was actually $1.9 million, and that the amount by which the Q1 Net Loss Per Share Results exceeded the high end of the Q1 Net Loss Per Share Guidance was $0.03 per share, when it was actually $0.05 per share.

The corrected amounts are as follows: (a) the Q1 Operating Loss Results exceeded the high end of the Q1 Operating Loss Guidance by $1.9 million, rather than $1.1 million, and (b) the Q1 Net Loss Per Share Results exceeded the high end of the Q1 Net Loss Per Share Guidance by $0.05 per share, rather than $0.03 per share.
