Guidewire Software Announces First Quarter Fiscal 2014 Financial Results
Foster City, CA - December 3, 2013 - Guidewire Software, Inc. (NYSE: GWRE), a provider of software products for Property/Casualty (P/C) insurers, today announced its financial results for the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2013.
“Our first quarter results reflected our customary seasonality, but exceeded expectations for both revenue and profitability,” said Marcus Ryu, Chief Executive Officer of Guidewire Software. “We see good validation for the investments we are making in our existing products and in new initiatives that expand our market opportunity. We also announced new capabilities in InsuranceSuite8, which were positively received by customers at our Connections user conference in October. We also added three paying Guidewire Live customers and have since closed the first sale of our new data management capabilities.”
Ryu added, “Based on our pipeline and long-term view of global P/C industry demand for legacy core system replacement, we are investing to expand on our leadership position and pursue opportunities that we expect to lead to sustained revenue growth and profitability in the years ahead.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains the following non-GAAP financial measures: Non-GAAP operating income, 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.
