Sajan, Inc. Announces Financial Results for 1^st Quarter 2016

Board Authorizes Stock Repurchase Program

RIVER FALLS, Wis., May 12, 2016- Sajan, Inc. (NASDAQ: SAJA), a leading provider of global language services and translation management system technology, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2016.

Revenues were $6,777,000, which represented a decrease of 9% compared to revenues of $7,481,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. The Company reported a net loss of $200,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared to net income of $4,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. Adjusted EBITDA was $27,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared to $346,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. See the section entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss).

Shannon Zimmerman, CEO of Sajan, commented on the Company’s first quarter results: “Our first quarter is typically impacted by slower translation spending by our customers. This year we saw this seasonality manifest itself in the pattern displayed by last year’s first quarter top 10 customers. Seven of these top 10 customers had an aggregate 30% decrease in revenue, while 3 of them had an aggregate 22% increase in revenue. This pattern was repeated with many of our customers during the quarter, and although we benefited from new business and current customers with increased spending in the quarter, the overall impact was a 9% decline in total revenue. I would like to emphasize that our relationships with our customers are strong and that we are well positioned to see revenue growth during the rest of the year.”

Mr. Zimmerman continued: “ During the quarter we made numerous sales and operational improvements including the following:

The Company also announced today that its Board of Directors has approved the repurchase of up to $300,000 of the Company’s common stock. “Our Board of Directors and senior management strongly believe that Sajan’s growth prospects and long-term strategy are not reflected by the Company’s current stock price,” said Zimmerman. “The stock repurchase program underscores the strength of our balance sheet and the confidence we have in our business, and demonstrates our commitment to maximizing value for our shareholders.”

Under the stock repurchase program, Sajan may repurchase shares in open-market purchases in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations, including Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The extent to which Sajan repurchases its shares, and the timing of such repurchases, will depend upon a variety of factors, including market conditions, regulatory requirements and other corporate considerations, as determined by Sajan’s management team. The repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures – Adjusted EBITDA

The Company calculates Adjusted EBITDA by taking net income (loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP, and adding interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation. The Company believes that this non-GAAP measure of financial results provides useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Company management uses this non-GAAP measure to compare Company performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses and for budgeting and planning purposes. This measure is also used in financial reports prepared for management and the board of directors. The Company believes that the use of this non-GAAP financial measure 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 companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.

Company management does not consider this non-GAAP measure in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of this non-GAAP financial measure is that it excludes significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In addition, it is subject to inherent limitations as it reflects the exercise of judgments by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining this non-GAAP financial measure. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents this non-GAAP financial measure in connection with GAAP results. The Company urges investors to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.
