Achieves 11.1% Revenue and 40.1% Net Income Growth; Non-GAAP Organic Revenue Growth of 6.5%
Increases Full-Year Financial Goals for Revenue and Non-GAAP Income From Operations

Charleston, S.C. (July 30, 2014) - Blackbaud, Inc. (NASDAQ:BLKB), a leading global provider of software and services for nonprofits, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended, June 30, 2014.

Second Quarter 2014 Highlights

Non-GAAP organic revenue growth of 6.5%
Total revenue growth of 11.1% to $139.4 million
Recurring revenue represented 72.8% of total revenue
Net income increased by 40.1% to $9.3 million
Diluted earnings per share increased by 33.3%
Cash flow from operations of $31.8 million

Mike Gianoni, President and CEO, commented, “Our team delivered another solid performance in the second quarter of 2014. The company maintained its acceleration of non-GAAP organic revenue growth and we are pleased that our second quarter growth was driven by all business units. Subscriptions growth continues to lead the acceleration, achieving nearly 14% non-GAAP organic growth and 25% GAAP growth this quarter. ”

“The company is well-aligned to execute on our four primary priorities in the back half of 2014: accelerating organic growth, optimizing our product portfolio, increasing recurring revenue and increasing operating efficiencies, and we expect to continue to heighten our focus on operational excellence. Our second quarter and year-to-date results were strong, we believe our momentum is building, and we remain highly-focused on solid execution and increasing value for our shareholders. We are also pleased to now include the WhippleHill cloud-based solutions for our K12 marketplace clients. This represents a market expansion opportunity for us to increase revenue and reach in this important sector of our business,” concluded Mr. Gianoni.

Second Quarter 2014 GAAP Financial Results

Blackbaud generated total revenue of $139.4 million for the second quarter of 2014, an increase of 11.1% compared to $125.5 million for the second quarter of 2013. Income from operations and net income were $16.0 million and $9.3 million, respectively, compared to $14.3 million and $6.6 million, respectively, for the second quarter of 2013. Diluted earnings per share was $0.20 for the second quarter of 2014, compared to $0.15 in the same period last year.

Second Quarter 2014 Non-GAAP Financial Results

Blackbaud achieved non-GAAP organic revenue growth of 6.5%, which includes $5.1 million of incremental revenue in the second quarter of 2013 as if the company had applied gross revenue accounting for our payments solutions in 2013 on a basis consistent with the current period and excludes incremental acquisition-related revenue. Non-GAAP income from operations was $27.0 million for the second quarter of 2014, up from $26.4 million in the same period last year. Non-GAAP net income was $15.8 million for the second quarter of 2014, up from $15.0 million in the same period last year. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.35 for the second quarter of 2014, up from $0.33 in the same period last year. An explanation of these measures is included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” 

Tony Boor, Senior Vice President and CFO, commented, “Our second quarter and year-to-date performance is a reflection of the investments we have made in areas targeted to accelerate growth, increase total recurring revenue, and continue to increase our operational efficiencies. In the second quarter, we continued to make our previously-announced 2014 investments; which impacted our operating margin when compared to the same period last year, and are designed to drive significant returns to our shareholders in the future. With a strong balance sheet and cash flows, we believe the company is positioned with the systems and financial flexibility to drive sustainable increased growth over the long-term.”




Full-Year Financial Goals Update

Blackbaud announced today that it is increasing its 2014 full-year financial goal for revenue to a range from $545.0 million to $560.0 million with a midpoint of $552.5 million and for non-GAAP income from operations to a range from $94.0 million to $100.0 million with a midpoint of $97.0 million. The updated range midpoints for revenue and non-GAAP income from operations represent increases of $10.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively, from previously provided 2014 full-year goals. The increases were a result of the company's better than originally expected second quarter and year to date financial performance which is expected to continue for the remainder of 2014 and as a result of modest incremental revenue expected from the acquisition of WhippleHill.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

The company ended the second quarter with $24.8 million in cash, compared to $32.6 million on March 31, 2014. The company generated $31.8 million in cash flow from operations during the second quarter, used net cash of $32.6 million for the acquisition of WhippleHill Communications, Inc. (“WhippleHill”), and returned $5.5 million to stockholders by way of dividend. Additional details related to the acquisition of WhippleHill can be found in the company's filings with the SEC at www.sec.gov and on the company’s website at www.blackbaud.com/investorrelations.

Dividend

Blackbaud announced today that its Board of Directors has approved a third quarter 2014 dividend of $0.12 per share payable on September 15, 2014 to stockholders of record on August 28, 2014.

Forward-looking Statements

Except for historical information, all of the statements, expectations, and assumptions contained in this news release are forward-looking statements which are subject to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, but not limited to, statements regarding: estimates for achievement of 2014 full-year financial goals; expectations for continued performance in 2014 that is better than originally expected; expectations for incremental revenue from the acquisition of



WhippleHill; the primary priorities for the back half of 2014 including accelerating organic growth, optimizing the product portfolio, increasing recurring revenue and increasing operating efficiencies; the expectation of a heightened focus on operational excellence; the building of momentum in our financial results; market expansion opportunities; and investments in 2014. These statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Although Blackbaud attempts to be accurate in making these forward-looking statements, it is possible that future circumstances might differ from the assumptions on which such statements are based. In addition, other important factors that could cause results to differ materially include the following: management of integration of acquired companies; uncertainty regarding increased business and renewals from existing customers; a shifting revenue mix that may impact gross margin; continued success in sales growth; risks related to our dividend policy and stock repurchase program, including the possibility that we might discontinue payment of dividends; and the other risk factors set forth from time to time in the SEC filings for Blackbaud, copies of which are available free of charge at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or upon request from Blackbaud's investor relations department. Blackbaud assumes no obligation and does not intend to update these forward-looking statements, except as required by law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Blackbaud has provided in this release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. This information includes non-GAAP organic revenue growth, non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. Blackbaud uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating Blackbaud's ongoing operational performance. Blackbaud 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 its financial results from period to period with other companies in Blackbaud's industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be completely comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to potential differences in the exact method of calculation between companies. Non-GAAP financial measures discussed above exclude items such as write-downs of acquisition-related deferred revenue, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangibles arising from business combinations, impairment of capitalized software development costs due to a business combination, acquisition-related integration costs, acquisition-related expenses, CEO transition costs, restructuring costs and loss on debt extinguishment and termination of derivative instruments, because they are not directly related to our performance in any particular period, but are for our long-term benefit over multiple periods. In addition, we discuss non-GAAP revenue, which presents prior period revenue on a basis consistent with the current period by reflecting certain revenue in the 2013 period on a gross basis rather than a net basis. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect our ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful period-to-period comparison and analysis of trends in our business.

Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included below in this press release.

Investors are also encouraged to refer to previously released financial information on the “Investor Relations” page of our website at www.blackbaud.com/investorrelations for analysis of Blackbaud’s historical financial statements for the four quarters and year ended December 31, 2013 that is intended to assist with the evaluation of the company and its performance in light of the change in presentation of our payments solutions from a net to gross basis. That financial information includes non-GAAP operating results as if the previously disclosed change in presentation effective October 1, 2013 had instead occurred on January 1, 2013, which provides the 2013 period base revenue used in calculating non-GAAP organic revenue growth. That financial information also includes operating results as if the previously disclosed change in presentation effective October 1, 2013 had not occurred.
