CAMPBELL, Calif., April 27, 2015 – Barracuda Networks, Inc. (NYSE: CUDA), a leading provider of cloud-connected security and storage solutions, today announced results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year 2015, which ended February 28, 2015.

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2015 Financial Highlights

Billings: For the fourth quarter, gross billings were $96.1 million which represents 17.2% growth from the prior year and more than 20% growth on a constant currency basis. For fiscal 2015, gross billings grew 17.5% to $364.3 million, up from $310.0 million in fiscal 2014.

Revenue: Total revenue for the fourth quarter grew 19.6% from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, to $72.2 million. For the full year, total revenue was $277.4 million. Appliance revenue, in the fourth quarter, reached $20.9 million and for the full year was $83.1 million. Subscription revenue grew to $51.2 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 up 22.0% from $42.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014. For fiscal 2015, subscription revenue was $194.3 million and represented 70.0% of total revenue.

Net Income/Loss: GAAP net loss was $68.4 million in the fourth quarter and $67.5 million for the full fiscal year. The loss per share was $1.30 based on a basic share count of 52.6 million and 51.9 million for the fourth quarter and fiscal 2015, respectively. The GAAP loss was primarily due to a one-time, non-cash charge of $67.7 million to establish a deferred tax asset valuation allowance. Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 was $3.7 million, or $0.07 earnings per share, based on a diluted share count of 54.7 million. Non-GAAP net income excludes $64.3 million in income tax expense and the effect of non-GAAP exclusions, $5.4 million in stock-based compensation expense, $1.1 million net in other income and expense, $0.7 million in acquisition and other non-recurring charges and $0.6 million in amortization of intangibles. For the full year fiscal 2015, non-GAAP net income was $15.1 million, or $0.28 earnings per share, based on a diluted share count of 54.0 million. The reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP information is contained in the tables below.

“We closed a strong and exciting year for Barracuda, experiencing continued demand across all major product categories and geographies. On a constant currency basis, quarterly billings growth accelerated for the fourth consecutive quarter, increasing more than 20% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 compared to the prior year,” said BJ Jenkins, president and CEO. “We now have more than 243,000 active subscribers, accelerated the growth in multiproduct customers to nearly 35,000, and the number of Barracuda Shops grew 41% to almost 11,000. We believe our results continue to reflect the progress we have made in strengthening our position as a leading provider of security and storage solutions that simplify the lives of IT professionals.”

“We achieved record revenue and billings in the fourth quarter and for the full year. In addition to accelerating revenue growth for fiscal 2015, we also expanded our non-GAAP operating margin by more than 480 basis points,” said David Faugno, CFO. “For the full year, adjusted EBITDA grew 50% to $79 million, which was 29% of total revenue.”

Forward-Looking Statements

This announcement contains forward-looking statements related to product and solution strength and expectations regarding financial performance. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of certain risk factors, including, but not limited to: fluctuations in demand for the Company’s products and services; a highly competitive business environment for network security and storage solutions; the Company’s effectiveness in controlling expenses; the possibility that the Company might experience delays in the development of new technology and products; customer response to its new technology and products; risks related to pending or future litigation and regulatory matters; continued relationships with its partners; and a dependency on third parties for certain components of the Company’s products. The Company undertakes no obligation to update the forward-looking information in this release. More information about potential factors that could affect the Company’s business and financial results is included in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, without limitation, under the captions: “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and “Risk Factors,” which are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Barracuda provides all financial information required in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, we are also providing with this press release non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP operating income, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted free cash flow. In preparing our non-GAAP information, we have excluded certain amounts as set forth in the attached financial tables and footnotes. We believe that excluding these items provides both management and investors with additional insight into our current operations and the trends affecting the Company. In particular, management finds it useful to exclude these items in order to more readily correlate the Company’s operating activities with the Company’s ability to generate cash from

operations. Accordingly, management uses these non-GAAP measures, along with the comparable GAAP information, in evaluating our historical performance and in planning our future business activities. Please note that our non-GAAP measures may be different than those used by other companies. The additional non-GAAP financial information we present should be considered in conjunction with, and not as a substitute for, our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. We have provided a non-GAAP reconciliation of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the periods presented in this release, which exclude certain amounts as set forth in the attached financial tables and footnotes for these periods. These measures should only be used to evaluate the Company’s results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures for comparable financial information and understanding of the Company’s ongoing performance as a business. Barracuda uses both GAAP and non-GAAP measures to evaluate and manage its operations.

Reconciliation of Selected GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures

(in thousands, except per share information)

(Unaudited)

(1)

Amortization of Intangible Assets. We provide non-GAAP information which excludes expenses for the amortization of intangible assets, as well as certain losses from disposal of such assets, that primarily relate to purchased intangible assets associated with our acquisitions. We believe that eliminating this expense from our non-GAAP measures is useful to investors, because the amortization of intangible assets can be inconsistent in amount and frequency and is significantly impacted by the timing and magnitude of our acquisition transactions, which also vary in frequency from period to period. Accordingly, we analyze the performance of our operations in each period without regard to such expenses.

(2)

Depreciation Expense. We provide non-GAAP information which excludes depreciation expense related to the amortization of property and equipment, as well as certain losses from disposal of such assets. We believe that eliminating this expense from our non-GAAP measures is useful to investors, because the acquisition of property and equipment, and the corresponding depreciation expense, can be inconsistent in amount and can vary from period to period.

(3)

Stock-Based Compensation Expense. We provide non-GAAP information which excludes expenses for stock-based compensation. We believe the exclusion of this item allows for financial results that are more indicative of our continuing operations. We believe that the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense provides for a better comparison of our operating results to prior periods and to our peer companies as the calculations of stock-based compensation vary from period to period and company to company due to different valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types.

(4)

Acquisition and Other Non-Recurring Charges. We exclude certain expense items resulting from acquisitions and other non-recurring charges, which we do not expect to recur in our continuing operating results. We believe that adjusting for these charges allows us to better compare results from period to period in order to assess the ongoing operating results of our business. The charges include: (i) costs associated with an internal investigation of export control compliance and (ii) legal, valuation consulting and other expenses incurred in connection with acquisitions, the fair value remeasurements of contingent considerations, and the payments made under the terms of certain acquisition agreements.

(5)

Income Tax Effect of Non-GAAP Exclusions. We believe providing financial information with and without the income tax effect of excluding items related to our non-GAAP financial measures provide our management and users of the financial statements with better clarity regarding the ongoing performance and future liquidity of our business. Excluded items include, but are not limited to: (i) amortization expense of intangible assets, (ii) stock-based compensation expense, and (iii) acquisition and other non-recurring charges. In addition, we excluded a tax charge for establishing a valuation allowance. In assessing the realizability of our deferred tax assets, we recorded a non-cash charge to income tax expense to establish a valuation allowance against a significant portion of those assets, including U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets and certain foreign deferred tax assets. As part of establishing the valuation allowance, we will assess and record any necessary quarterly changes to the valuation allowance and the corresponding income tax expense or benefit, which will be excluded for non-GAAP purposes as we believe it will provide investors with a better view of ongoing performance and future liquidity of our business.

(6)

Other Expense (Income) Adjustments. We provide non-GAAP information that excludes the effect of certain other income and losses. These adjustments most significantly consist of foreign currency remeasurement gains and losses. For all non-functional currency account balances, the remeasurement of such balances to the functional currency will result in either a foreign exchange gain or a loss which is recorded in other income (expense), net. We believe that eliminating these items from our non-GAAP measures is useful to investors, because foreign currency remeasurement adjustments can be inconsistent in amount and can vary from period to period.

(7)

Non-Controlling Interest. We provide non-GAAP information that includes the results related to entities in which we hold a minority interest. We believe that adjusting for these amounts allows us to better compare results from period to period in order to assess the ongoing operating results of our business, including entities for which we own a minority interest.

(8)	Non-GAAP Diluted Earnings Per Share. We provide non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. The non-GAAP diluted earnings per share amount is calculated based on our non-GAAP net income divided by the weighted-average diluted shares outstanding for the period.

Adjusted EBITDA (1)	$	20,206		$	16,832		$	79,105		$	52,906

(1)

Adjusted EBITDA. We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus increases in deferred revenue and increases in the associated deferred costs, plus non-cash and non-operating charges which include: (i) other expense (income), net, (ii) provision for (benefit from) income taxes, (iii) acquisition and other non-recurring charges, (iv) stock-based compensation expense, (v) amortization of intangible assets, including certain losses on disposal of intangible assets, and (vi) depreciation expense, including certain losses on disposal of fixed assets. The deferred revenue balances as of February 28, 2015 and November 30, 2014 exclude the remaining acquisition date deferred revenue amounts assumed in connection with our acquisition of C2C Systems Limited. We believe adjusted EBITDA provides an indication of profitability from our operations, and provides a consistent measure of our performance from period to period.

(1)

Acquisition and Other Non-Recurring Charges. We exclude the cash flow impact resulting from acquisitions and other non-recurring charges, which we do not expect to recur in our continuing operating results. We believe that adjusting for these cash outflows allows us to better compare results from period to period in order to assess the ongoing operating results of our business. The cash flows include: (i) payments associated with our previous CEO transition, (ii) payments associated with an internal investigation of export control compliance, and (iii) payments related to legal, valuation consulting and other expenses incurred in connection with acquisitions, as well as the payments under the terms of certain acquisition agreements.

(2)

Adjusted Free Cash Flow. We define adjusted free cash flow as cash flows from operating activities less the purchases of property and equipment plus the cash flow effect of acquisition and other non-recurring charges. We believe that adjusting free cash flow to exclude these charges allows us to better compare results from period to period in order to assess the ongoing free cash flow of our business. We believe adjusted free cash flow is an important liquidity measure that reflects the cash generated by the business after the purchase of property and equipment that can then be used for, among other things, strategic acquisitions, investments in the business and funding ongoing operations.

On a trailing 12-month basis, adjusted free cash flow was the following:

(1)

Gross Billings. We define gross billings as total revenue plus the change in deferred revenue and other adjustments, which primarily consist of returns and reserves with respect to the 30-day right of return we provide to customers, as well as rebates for certain channel partner activities. The deferred revenue balances as of February 28, 2015 and November 30, 2014 exclude the remaining acquisition date deferred revenue amounts assumed in connection with our acquisition of C2C Systems Limited. We believe that gross billings provide insight into the sales of our solutions and performance of our business.

(2)

In order to determine how our business performed exclusive of the effect of foreign currency fluctuations, we compare the percentage change in our gross billings from one period to another using a constant currency. To present this gross billings information, the current and comparative prior period results for entities that operate in other than U.S. dollars are converted into U.S. dollars at constant exchange rates. For example, the rates in effect at February 28, 2014, which was the last day of our prior fiscal year’s comparable quarter, were used to convert current and comparable prior period gross billings rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the respective period.
