“Our long-term goal is to emerge as the leader in storage. We executed well against that vision in our fourth quarter, adding a record 752 new customers, ending fiscal year 2016 with 7,580 customers - a pace of customer acquisition that remains unmatched by any emerging vendor in our industry,” said Suresh Vasudevan, chief executive officer, Nimble Storage. “With the recent expansion of our Predictive Flash platform to include All Flash arrays that leapfrog competitive offerings, we now have an industry-leading storage portfolio that delivers absolute performance, superior scalability and non-stop availability to our customers, at a total cost of ownership (TCO) that is up to 33 to 66 percent lower than competitive all flash arrays.”

“We finished fiscal year 2016 with solid results. Looking ahead at fiscal year 2017, we are very excited about the prospects and traction of our Predictive Flash platform,” said Anup Singh, chief financial officer. “The investments we are making in accelerating our commercial business, and in entering the all flash market will allow us to accelerate market share gains and position Nimble to emerge as the next storage leader.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, Nimble Storage has disclosed in this release and the accompanying tables non-GAAP financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP. The company provides non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss per share, non-GAAP free cash flow and adjusted EBITDA. In computing these non-GAAP financial measures, the company excludes the effects of stock-based compensation, which is a recurring expense for the company. The company has provided a reconciliation below of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

The company discloses these non-GAAP financial measures because they are key measures used by the company’s management and board of directors to understand and evaluate operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve the annual budget and to develop short-term and long-term operational and compensation plans. In particular, the exclusion of certain expenses in calculating non-GAAP financial measures can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of the company’s business. Accordingly, the company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the company’s operating results in the same manner as the company’s management and board of directors.

Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and, as such, should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of the company’s results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
