Commenting on the preliminary financial results, Ashu Roy, eGain CEO, said: “Although our fourth quarter revenue came in lower than prior guidance, we are pleased with our greater than 25% year-over-year growth in bookings. I am particularly encouraged with our cloud bookings that came in stronger than expected, including four on-premise customers migrating to the eGain Cloud. New cloud bookings in the quarter accounted for 57% of total new bookings, up from 25% of new bookings in the prior quarter. Several license deals we expected to close slipped out of the quarter; some have since closed.”
Mr. Roy concluded, “To accelerate our cloud sales, we are appointing Joseph Brown to lead North America Sales. Joe brings a proven track record in driving cloud based sales at RightNow Technologies and Avangate.”
These results are based on preliminary information and are subject to change. The company plans to announce final fiscal 2015 fourth quarter and full year results on September 10, 2015. The Company intends to provide a non-GAAP reconciliation, and updated guidance for fiscal 2016 at that time.
The reported results include adjusted revenue, a non-GAAP financial measure, defined as revenue adjusted for the impact of purchase accounting adjustments to deferred revenue related to acquisition. Non-GAAP results are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. eGain–s management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare the company–s performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, and for budgeting and planning purposes. eGain believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures 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 software companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors, and that it allows for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making.
