ServiceSource Reports First Quarter 2018 Financial Results
Strong Start to Year with Quarterly Performance Better Than Guidance
Return to Year-Over-Year Revenue Growth
Raising Revenue Outlook for the Full Year

DENVER, May 3, 2018 - ServiceSource (NASDAQ: SREV), a global leader in outsourced inside sales, customer success and recurring revenue growth and retention solutions, today announced financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

“ServiceSource had a strong start to the year, outperforming our guidance and returning to revenue growth a full quarter ahead of plan,” said Christopher M. Carrington, CEO of ServiceSource. “Beyond our financial performance, we had the strongest Q1 for new sales wins in the history of the Company and made significant progress on our five strategic initiatives. We signed five new logos and had a great quarter locking in multi-year contracts that included material expansions and extensions for several large clients. Given the strong Q1 performance, confidence in the positive momentum of the business, and conviction that ServiceSource has passed its inflection point, we are pleased to raise our revenue outlook for the year.”

Key Financial Results – First Quarter 2018
GAAP revenue for Q1 2018 was $58.6 million, an increase of 3.3% compared with $56.7 million reported for Q1 2017.
GAAP net loss for Q1 2018 was $11.7 million or $0.13 per diluted share, compared with GAAP net loss of $11.6 million or $0.13 per diluted share reported for Q1 2017.
Non-GAAP net loss for Q1 2018 was $0.5 million or $0.01 per diluted share, compared with non-GAAP net loss of $1.6 million or $0.02 per diluted share reported for Q1 2017.
Adjusted EBITDA for Q1 2018 was $1.6 million, an increase of $2.5 million compared with negative $0.9 million reported for Q1 2017.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures is provided following the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statement tables contained within this press release.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, ServiceSource provides investors with non-GAAP gross profit, net income (loss), net income (loss) per diluted 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 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 gross profit consists of gross profit plus adjustments to stock-based compensation, amortization of internally-developed software and amortization of purchased intangible assets.
Non-GAAP net income (loss) consists of net income (loss) plus stock-based compensation, amortization of internally-developed software, amortization of purchased intangible assets, restructuring and other related costs, impairment loss on investment securities, amortization of contract acquisition costs related to the initial adoption of ASC 606, non-cash interest expense and applying an income tax rate of 26.5% and 40.0% as of March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017, respectively, 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 interest rates, all of which are difficult to estimate.
EBITDA consists of net income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization, interest expense and other income/(expense), and income tax benefit (expense). Adjusted EBITDA consists of EBITDA plus non-cash stock-based compensation expense, amortization of contract acquisition costs related to the initial adoption of ASC 606, restructuring and other related costs and impairment loss on investment securities. 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 the impact of the Company's capital structure and other non-cash or non-recurring items from operating results.
These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

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, 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-based 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) Impairment loss on investment securities. Included in our GAAP presentation, this impairment of available-for-sale investment securities is equal to the difference between the fair value and amortized cost basis of the securities and was recognized in net loss (amounts were previously recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) as an unrealized loss) due to our intent to sell these securities to repay our $150.0 million convertible notes due August 1, 2018. This charge is not related to or indicative of our ongoing core operating performance.
(F) Amortization of contract acquisition costs - ASC 606 initial adoption. Upon adoption of Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 606”) using the modified retrospective approach, we capitalized approximately $3.3 million of previously expensed sales commissions from 2015, 2016 and 2017. Amortization of these amounts are included in our GAAP presentation as sales and marketing expense. We believe this non-cash amortization expense is not related to or indicative of our current or future operating performance.
(G) Non-cash interest expense. Under GAAP, we are required to separately account for liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components of the $150.0 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 rate expense and the contractual interest rate 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; and (ii) the income tax rate to a normalized effective tax rate of 26.5% and 40.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
(I) Shares used in calculating diluted net income (loss) per share on a non-GAAP basis. Due to net losses in both periods, the share count for basic and diluted earnings per share is the same.
