QAD Reports Fiscal 2019 Third Quarter and Year-To-Date Financial Results--YTD Subscription Revenue Grows 36 Percent and YTD Subscription Gross Margin Improves Nine Percentage Points to 63 Percent--

SANTA BARBARA, Calif., Nov. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- QAD Inc. (Nasdaq: QADA) (Nasdaq: QADB), a leading provider of flexible, cloud-based enterprise software and services for global manufacturing companies, today reported financial results for the fiscal 2019 third quarter and first nine months ended October 31, 2018. 

Fiscal 2019 Third Quarter Financial Highlights:

Total revenue for the fiscal 2019 third quarter grew to $79.6 million, from $77 million for the fiscal 2018 third quarter.  Currency had a negative $1.4 million impact on total revenue.  Subscription revenue increased 39 percent year-over-year, and represented 30 percent of total revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2019, an eight-percentage point improvement over the prior-year third quarter. 

Additional fiscal 2019 third quarter financial highlights, versus the comparable period last year, include:

  • Subscription revenue of $23.9 million, compared with $17.2 million. Currency had a $252,000 negative impact.
  • Subscription gross margin of 64 percent, versus 56 percent.
  • License revenue of $4.6 million, compared with $6.6 million. The currency impact was not meaningful.
  • Professional services revenue remained constant at $20.7 million. Currency had a $492,000 negative impact.
  • Maintenance and other revenue of $30.4 million, compared with $32.4 million. Currency had a $550,000 negative impact.
  • GAAP pre-tax income of $3.6 million, versus $1.1 million. GAAP pre-tax income was higher than the company's prior guidance as a result of improved subscription margins and lower personnel expenses.
  • Non-GAAP pre-tax income of $5.7 million, compared with $3.5 million.
  • GAAP net income of $3 million, or $0.14 per diluted Class A share and $0.12 per diluted Class B share, versus a GAAP net loss of $161,000, or $(0.01) per Class A share and $(0.01) per Class B share.

"Our subscription business continued its revenue and margin growth as increasing numbers of global manufacturers embraced the cloud," said Pam Lopker, President of QAD.  "With QAD's new Channel Islands offering now generally available in the cloud, the competitiveness of our product portfolio uniquely positions us for long term cloud revenue growth."

For the first nine months of fiscal 2019, total revenue was $250.3 million, compared with $224.3 million for the first nine months of the prior fiscal year.  Currency had a $2.5 million positive impact on total revenue.  Subscription revenue grew 36% to $67.8 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2019, compared with $50 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2018.  GAAP net income was $5.5 million, or $0.26 per diluted Class A share and $0.23 per diluted Class B share, for the fiscal 2019 year-to-date period, versus a GAAP net loss of $3.9 million, or $(0.21) per Class A share and $(0.17) per Class B share, for the same period last year.  Non-GAAP pre-tax income was $16.2 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2019, compared with $6.1 million for the same period last year.

QAD's cash and equivalents balance was $138.1 million at October 31, 2018, versus $147 million at January 31, 2018.  Cash provided by operations was $15.1 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2019, compared with $2.8 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2018.

Fiscal 2019 Third Quarter Operational Highlights:

  • Received orders from 18 customers representing more than $500,000 each in combined license, subscription, maintenance and professional services billings, including seven orders exceeding $1 million, three of which exceeded $2 million;
  • Received license or cloud orders from companies across QAD's six vertical markets, including: Adient Limited, Amtico Holdings Ltd., Argon Medical Devices, Avnet, Inc., Bakkersland B.V., Block & Company Inc., Danyang UPC Auto Parts Co., LTD, Exactech, Inc., Koninklijke Sanders B.V., Changchun Engley Automotive Industry Co. Ltd., LGC Group Limited, and Renolit SE;
  • Announced availability of the latest version of QAD Cloud ERP and related solutions, including the general availability of its Channel Islands offering for use with QAD Cloud ERP 2018;
  • Announced availability of Production Orders 3.0 with QAD Cloud ERP, which is compatible with the company's Channel Islands offering and includes enhancements to QAD Master Planning and Scheduling Workbenches;
  • Signed system integrator agreements with Tata Consultancy Services and YASH Technologies to provide global consulting and implementation services; and
  • Won the Frost & Sullivan 2018 North American ERP for Automotive Customer Value Leadership Award.

Calculation of Earnings per Share (EPS)

EPS is reported based on the company's dual-class share structure, and includes a calculation for both Class A and Class B shares.  Since Class A shares have rights to 120% of dividends paid on Class B shares, net income is apportioned so that earnings per share attributable to a Class A share are 120% of earnings per share attributable to a Class B share.

Note about Non-GAAP Financial Measures

QAD has disclosed non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA margins, non-GAAP pre-tax income and estimated income tax expense on GAAP earnings in this press release for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2019.  These are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC Regulation G.  QAD defines the non-GAAP measures as follows:

  • Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA - EBITDA is GAAP net income before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA less stock-based compensation expense and the change in the fair value of the interest rate swap.
  • Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA margins - Calculated by dividing non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA by total revenue.
  • Non-GAAP pre-tax income - GAAP income before income taxes not including the effects of stock-based compensation expense, amortization of purchased intangible assets and the change in fair value of the interest rate swap.
  • Estimated income tax expense on GAAP earnings - Defined as GAAP total tax expense excluding changes in reserves for unrecognized tax benefits.

QAD's management uses non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate the business and believes that presenting non-GAAP measures provides useful information to investors regarding the company's underlying business trends and performance of the company's ongoing operations as well as useful metrics for monitoring the company's performance and evaluating it against industry peers.  The non-GAAP financial measures presented should be used in addition to, and in conjunction with, results presented in accordance with GAAP, and should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures.  Management strongly encourages investors to review the company's consolidated financial statements in their entirety and to not rely on any single financial measure in evaluating the company. 

Tables providing a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to their most comparable GAAP measures are included at the end of this press release.

QAD non-GAAP measures reflect adjustments based on the following items:

Stock-based compensation expense: The company has excluded the effect of stock-based compensation expense from its non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP pre-tax income calculations.  Although stock-based compensation expense is calculated in accordance with current GAAP and constitutes an ongoing and recurring expense, such expense is excluded from non-GAAP results because it is not an expense which generally requires cash settlement by QAD, and therefore is not used by the company to assess the profitability of its operations.  The company also believes the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense provides a more useful comparison of its operating results to the operating results of its peers.

Amortization of purchased intangible assets: The company amortizes purchased intangible assets in connection with its acquisitions.  QAD has excluded the effect of amortization of purchased intangible assets, which include purchased technology, customer relationships, trade names and other intangible assets, from its non-GAAP pre-tax income calculation, because doing so makes internal comparisons to the company's historical operating results more consistent.  In addition, the company believes excluding amortization of purchased intangible assets provides a more useful comparison of its operating results to the operating results of its peers.

Change in fair value of the interest rate swap: The company entered into an interest rate swap to mitigate its exposure to the variability of one-month LIBOR for its floating rate debt related to the mortgage of its headquarters.  QAD has excluded the gain/loss adjustments to record the interest rate swap at fair value from its non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP pre-tax income calculations.  The company believes that these fluctuations are not indicative of its operational costs or meaningful in evaluating comparative period results because the company currently has no intention of exiting the debt agreement early; and therefore over the life of the debt the sum of the fair value adjustments will be $0.
