Pegasystems Reports Q1 12 Revenue of $111 Million; A 9% Increase From Q1 11
Q1 12 GAAP EPS of $0.10 and Q1 12 Non-GAAP EPS of $0.23; Leading Analyst Reports Pega Gains BPM Market Share
(firmenpresse) - CAMBRIDGE, MA -- (Marketwire) -- 05/03/12 -- (NASDAQ: PEGA) today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2012. Revenue for the first quarter of 2012 increased 9% to $111.2 million compared to the first quarter of 2011. Net income for the first quarter of 2012 was $4.1 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared to net income of $4.7 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2011.
"In addition to continued growth in our traditional industries, we had new traction in emerging segments such as energy, manufacturing, and government," said Alan Trefler, Founder and CEO of Pegasystems. "This interest in our industry-leading software for customer centricity was facilitated by the increased engagement of our partner ecosystem. Major client wins included some of the largest global firms, including a major Canadian financial services institution, an electronics manufacturer, an enormous energy company, and a top-tier European insurer."
"Leading industry analysts confirmed our momentum by reporting Pegasystems as the fastest-growing BPM vendor, surpassing Oracle and Adobe in market share. Our leading position in CRM was similarly confirmed in their updated CRM vendor ranking. We improved our position even before we brought to market our new marketing analytics automation platform that gives CMOs a 'killer app' for inbound and outbound marketing to drive improved customer experience and revenue growth. We're looking forward to hosting 2,000 attendees at our upcoming PegaWORLD user conference to dig into these hot topics with our clients and partners," concluded Mr. Trefler.
Craig Dynes, Pegasystems' CFO, added, "In addition to our earnings, the fact that we were able to grow the aggregate value of our license backlog from a Q4 to a Q1 is evidence of a solid start to the year. We are working a good pipeline of deals in what we expect will be another back-end loaded year."

To supplement financial results presented on a GAAP basis, the Company provides Non-GAAP measures, including in this release. Pegasystems' management utilizes a number of different financial measures, both GAAP and Non-GAAP, in analyzing and assessing the overall performance of the business, for making operating decisions, and for forecasting and planning for future periods. The Company's annual financial plan is prepared both on a GAAP and Non-GAAP basis, and the Non-GAAP annual financial plan is approved by our board of directors. In addition and as a consequence of the importance of these measures in managing the business, the Company uses Non-GAAP measures and results in the evaluation process to establish management's compensation.
The Non-GAAP measures exclude certain business combination accounting entries and expenses related to our 2010 acquisition of Chordiant, as well as other significant expenses including stock-based compensation. The Company believes that these Non-GAAP measures are helpful in understanding our past financial performance and our anticipated future results. These Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the Company's GAAP to Non-GAAP measures is included in the financial schedules at the end of the release.
