Guidewire Software Announces Third Quarter Fiscal 2013 Financial Results

Foster City, CA - May 28, 2013 - Guidewire Software, Inc. (NYSE: GWRE), a provider of software products for property and casualty insurers, today announced its financial results for the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2013.

“Revenue and profitability were ahead of our expectations in the third quarter, and rolling four quarter recurring term license and maintenance revenue grew by 34% from a year ago. In addition to strong financial results, our momentum continued with PolicyCenter and full InsuranceSuite sales, international expansion and customer go lives,” said Marcus Ryu, Chief Executive Officer of Guidewire Software. “We continue to believe that we are in the early stage of our market opportunity, and we continue to invest in expanding our product capabilities and global reach to advance our leadership position."

Third Quarter Fiscal 2013 Financial Highlights

Revenue
Total revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 was $68.3 million, an increase of 20% from the comparable period in fiscal 2012.
Total license revenue, including term and perpetual licenses, for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 was $22.9 million, an increase of 6% from the comparable period in fiscal 2012. Recurring term license revenue was $17.9 million, a 16% increase from a year ago and revenue from perpetual licenses was $5.0 million compared with $6.3 million a year ago. Maintenance revenue was $9.1 million, up 17% from the comparable period in fiscal 2012, and services revenue was $36.2 million, up 31% from the comparable period in fiscal 2012.
Rolling four-quarter recurring term license and maintenance revenue was $130.9 million, an increase of 34% from the comparable period in fiscal 2012.

Profitability
GAAP operating loss was ($4.4) million for the third quarter of fiscal 2013, compared to operating income of $4.8 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2012.
Non-GAAP operating income was $3.9 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2013, compared to $9.1 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2012.
Adjusted EBITDA was $5.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2013, compared to $9.9 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2012.
GAAP net loss was ($2.7) million for the third quarter of fiscal 2013, compared to GAAP net income of $3.1 million for the comparable period in fiscal 2012. GAAP net loss per share was ($0.05), based on diluted weighted average shares outstanding of 57.0 million, compared to a GAAP net income per share of $0.05 for the comparable period in fiscal 2012, based on diluted weighted average shares outstanding of 60.1 million.
Non-GAAP net income was $2.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2013, compared to $5.9 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2012. Non-GAAP net income per diluted share was $0.04, based on diluted weighted average shares outstanding of 62.2 million, compared to $0.10 for the third quarter of fiscal 2012, based on diluted weighted average shares outstanding of 60.1 million.
Each profitability metric was better than the company's guidance, and decreases in year-over-year profitability comparisons were as expected and primarily due to anticipated investments in long-term growth.

Balance Sheet
The Company had $203.6 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments at April 30, 2013, compared to $203.2 million at January 31, 2013. Cash flow from operations was $5.0 million in the third quarter, compared to $10.3 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2012.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains the following non-GAAP financial measures: Non-GAAP operating income, Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP net income and Non-GAAP earnings per share.
Guidewire believes that these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Guidewire's financial condition and results of operations. The Company's management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare the company's performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, for purposes of determining executive and senior management incentive compensation and for budgeting and planning purposes. The Company 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 the Company's financial measures with other software companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.
Management of the Company does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company's financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents non-GAAP financial measures in connection with GAAP results. Guidewire urges investors to review the reconciliation of its non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures, which it includes in press releases announcing quarterly financial results, including this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company's business.
Reconciliation tables of the most comparable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release are included with the financial tables at the end of this release.

However, as net income was earned on a Non-GAAP basis, these shares have a dilutive effect on Non-GAAP earnings per share and are included here.
