Jive Software Announces First Quarter 2014 Financial Results


  • 1Q total revenue of $41.0 million, up 21% year-over-year
  • 1Q short-term billings of $42.1 million, up 16% year-over-year

PALO ALTO, Calif., May 6, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Jive Software, Inc. (Nasdaq:JIVE), a leader in social business, today announced financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2014.

"Jive delivered a strong start to the year with financial results that met or exceeded the high end of our guidance range," stated Tony Zingale, Chairman & CEO of Jive Software. "Customers continue to respond favorably to our more refined go-to-market strategy, which targets the highest areas of value add and ROI for social business platforms - portals, social intranets and external communities."

Zingale added, "We delivered on an important milestone with the recent announcement of our strategic relationship with Cisco that expands our existing go-to-market footprint. Cisco and its channel partners will now resell Jive solutions as a fully integrated component of the Cisco collaboration family. We believe we are executing well against our overall strategy and are increasingly well positioned to deliver accelerating growth in the second half of 2014."

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

First Quarter and Recent Business Highlights

  • Signed new and expanded customer relationships including: ARaymond Network, David Yurman, Esri, FireEye, Globe Telecom, Kimberly Clark, Leidos, MUFG Americas Union Bank, Plex Systems, Sky Deutschland AG, Société Générale, the San Francisco Giants, and Verizon, among others. 
     
  • Announced a relationship with Cisco that combines Jive's industry-leading enterprise collaboration and communication platform with Cisco's real-time technologies like WebEx and Jabber. Cisco and its partner network will now resell Jive solutions as a fully integrated component of the Cisco collaboration family.
     
  • Introduced a new iPad app for Producteev by Jive, which complements the existing offerings for MacOS, iPhone and Android devices. Producteev Pro, a premium version of Producteev which provides deeper integration with Microsoft Outlook, was also made available.

Financial Outlook

As of May 6, 2014, Jive is initiating guidance for its second quarter 2014 and updating guidance for the full year 2014, as follows:

  • Second Quarter 2014 Guidance: Total revenue is expected to be in the range of $41.5 million to $42.5 million. Non-GAAP loss from operations is expected to be in the range of $7.1 million to $8.1 million. Non-GAAP net loss per share is expected to be in the range of $0.10 to $0.12 based on approximately 70.3 million weighted-average diluted shares outstanding.
     
  • Full Year 2014 Guidance: Total revenue is expected to be in the range of $171.0 million to $176.0 million. Non-GAAP loss from operations is expected to be in the range of $26.0 million to $30.0 million. Non-GAAP net loss per share is expected to be in the range of $0.38 to $0.45 based on approximately 70.7 million weighted-average diluted shares outstanding.  Free cash flow is expected to be in the range of negative $15.0 million to negative $20.0 million. 

With respect to the Company's expectations under "Financial Outlook" above, the Company has not reconciled non-GAAP loss from operations or non-GAAP net loss per share to GAAP loss from operations and GAAP net loss per share because the Company does not provide guidance for stock-based compensation, income taxes or amortization of intangible assets, which are reconciling items between those Non-GAAP and GAAP measures. As items that impact loss from operations and loss per share are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted, the Company is unable to provide such guidance. Accordingly, a reconciliation to loss from operations and net loss per share is not available without unreasonable effort.

Quarterly Conference Call

Jive will host a conference call today at 2:00 p.m. PT (5:00 p.m. ET) to review the company's financial results for the first quarter 2014, in addition to discussing the company's outlook for the second quarter and full year 2014.  To access this call, dial (888) 747-4666 (domestic) or (913) 312-1453 (international) with conference ID 6067725. A live webcast of the conference call will be accessible from the investor relations section of Jive's website at http://investors.jivesoftware.com/ and a replay will be archived and accessible at: http://investors.jivesoftware.com/events.cfm. A replay of this conference call can also be accessed through May 13, 2014, by dialing (877) 870-5176 (domestic) or (858) 384-5517 (international).

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures in this release. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. 

Non-GAAP gross profit, loss from operations, net loss and net loss per share exclude stock-based compensation expenses and amortization of acquisition related intangible assets. Total billings is defined by the Company as revenue plus the change in total deferred revenue. Short-term billings is defined as revenue plus the change in short-term deferred revenue. Management presents these non-GAAP financial measures because it considers them to be important supplemental measures of performance. Management uses the non-GAAP financial measures for planning purposes, including analysis of the Company's performance against prior periods, the preparation of operating budgets and to determine appropriate levels of operating and capital investments. Management also believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide additional insight for analysts and investors in evaluating the Company's financial and operational performance. However, these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and are not intended to be an alternative to financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. We intend to provide these non-GAAP financial measures as part of our future earnings discussions and, therefore, the inclusion of these non-GAAP financial measures will provide consistency in our financial reporting. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to GAAP is provided in the accompanying tables.
