ServiceSource Reports Third Quarter 2017 Financial Results

DENVER, November 8, 2017 - ServiceSource® (Nasdaq: SREV), a global leader in outsourced customer success and revenue growth solutions, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2017.

“With all key financial metrics beating guidance, ServiceSource delivered a solid quarter in Q3. Our teams executed well on multiple fronts, with another strong quarter of new logo and expansion sales complemented by improved performance and outcomes for our installed base,” said Christopher M. Carrington, CEO of ServiceSource. “While Q4 revenue will be muted from our earlier expectations, we continue to see improvements in the underlying long-term fundamentals of the business.”

GAAP revenue was $58.1 million in the third quarter, representing a 7.0% decrease from the $62.5 million delivered in the same period in the prior year.

For the third quarter of fiscal year 2017, GAAP net loss in the quarter was $5.2 million, or $0.06 per share, compared with GAAP net loss of $9.3 million, or $0.11 per share, for the same period last year. Non-GAAP net income in the quarter was $2.0 million compared with Non-GAAP net income of $1.3 million for the same period last year. Non-GAAP net income was $0.02 per basic and diluted share, compared with non-GAAP net income of $0.02 per basic and diluted share for the same period last year. Adjusted EBITDA was income of $5.7 million, compared with income of $4.1 million for the same period last year.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures has been provided following the financial statement tables included in this press release.

For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, ServiceSource is providing the following guidance:

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement its financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, ServiceSource also provides investors with non-GAAP gross profit, net income, net income per share and Adjusted EBITDA. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the closest GAAP financial measure is presented in the financial tables below under the heading, "GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation."

ServiceSource believes that the non-GAAP financial information provided in this release can assist investors in understanding and assessing its on-going core operations and prospects for the future and provides an additional tool for investors to use in comparing ServiceSource's financial results with other companies in the industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.

Non-GAAP revenue is defined as net revenue plus revenue not recognized in the period due to the impact of purchase accounting rules related to deferred revenue acquired.

Non-GAAP gross profit consists of gross profit plus adjustments to stock-based compensation, amortization of purchased intangible assets and amortization of internally-developed software.

Non-GAAP net income (loss) consists of net loss plus stock-based compensation, amortization of purchased intangible assets, amortization of internally-developed software, restructuring and other related costs, litigation reserve, (gain) loss on cost basis equity investment, non-cash interest expense and applying an income tax rate of 40% on non-GAAP adjustments as well as the impact of normalizing the effective income tax rate. Stock-based compensation expense is expected to vary depending on the number of new grants issued, changes in the company's stock price, stock market volatility, expected option lives and risk-free rates of return, all of which are difficult to estimate.

EBITDA consists of net loss plus depreciation and amortization, interest expense, other expenses, net, and income tax (benefit) expense. Adjusted EBITDA consists of EBITDA plus non-cash stock-based compensation expense, restructuring and other related costs, litigation reserve and (gain) loss on cost basis equity investment. ServiceSource uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of operating performance because it assists the company in comparing performance on a consistent basis, as it removes from the operating results the impact of the company's capital structure.

These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

Footnotes to GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation                
(A) Stock-based compensation. Included in our GAAP presentation of cost of revenue and operating expenses, stock-based compensation consists of expenses for stock options and awards and purchase rights under our stock purchase plan. We exclude stock-based compensation expense from our non-GAAP measures because some investors may view it as not reflective of our core operating performance as it is a non-cash expense.
(B) Amortization of internally-developed software. Included in our GAAP presentation of cost of revenue and operating expenses, amortization of internally-developed software reflects non-cash expense for certain software purchases and software developed or obtained for internal use. We exclude these expenses from our non-GAAP measures because we believe they are not indicative of our core operating performance.
(C) Amortization of purchased intangibles. Included in our GAAP presentation of gross margin and operating expenses is amortization of purchased intangible assets. We believe amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, such as the amortization of the cost associated with an acquired company’s research and development efforts, trade names and customer relationships, are items arising from pre-acquisition activities and therefore are properly determined at the time of an acquisition. Although these intangible assets are continually evaluated for impairment, amortization of the cost of purchased intangibles is a static expense, one that is not typically affected by operations during any particular period.
(D) Restructuring and other. Included in our GAAP presentation, we incurred expenses related to our restructuring effort to better align our cost structure with current revenue levels. Restructuring and other expenses consist primarily of stock compensation related to the accelerated vesting of certain equity awards, employees' severance payments, related employee benefits, related legal fees, asset impairment charges and charges related to leases and other contract termination costs. These are one-time in nature costs that are not indicative of our core operating performance.

(E) Litigation reserve. The Company records a contingent liability when it is probably that a loss has been incurred and the amount is reasonably estimable in accordance with accounting for contingencies. As of September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company has accrued a $1.5 million reserve relating to our potential liability for currently pending disputes. These reserves are one-time in nature charges that are not indicative of our core operating performance.

(F) (Gain) loss on cost basis equity investment. In 2013 we made an equity investment in a private company for $4.5 million, which represented less than 5% of the outstanding equity of the company. Based on unfavorable growth trends and declining financial performance of this private company, the Company determined that its investment was fully impaired and recorded a $2.3 million and $2.2 million impairment charge in the third and fourth quarters of 2016, respectively. During the quarter ended September 30, 2017, the Company sold this investment for $2.1 million in cash and recorded the proceeds as a gain.

(G) Non-cash interest expense. Under GAAP, we are required to separately account for liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components of the $150 million convertible senior notes that were issued in August 2013. Accordingly, for GAAP purposes we are required to recognize effective interest expense on our convertible senior notes which includes interest cost related to the amortization of debt issuance costs and the contractual 1.5% interest rate of the note. The difference between the effective interest expense and the contractual interest expense is excluded from our assessment of our operating performance because we believe that this non-cash expense is not indicative of ongoing operating performance. We believe that the exclusion of the non-cash interest expense provides investors a view of our core operating performance.

(H) Income tax effect on non-GAAP adjustments as well as the impact of normalizing the effective income tax rate. This adjusts (i) the provision for income taxes to reflect the effect of the non-GAAP items A, B, C, D, E, F and G noted above on our non-GAAP net loss; (ii) the income tax rate to a normalized effective tax rate of 40%; and (iii) non-GAAP earnings per share based on a fully-diluted share count.
