Epicor Software Corporation (NASDAQ: EPIC), a leading provider of
enterprise business software solutions for the midmarket and
divisions of Global 1000 companies, today reported financial
results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2010. All results
should be considered preliminary pending the Company's filing of
its quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
Epicor chairman, president and CEO George Klaus commented, "We
had a strong start to 2010 highlighted by organic first quarter
software license revenue growth of 23% over the first quarter of
2009, which helped drive $8.8 million in free cash flow. This
strong year-over-year organic software growth validates our belief
that our markets are strengthening and that Epicor 9 is creating
more opportunities for our sales force. We expect to maintain this
momentum as pipelines continue to grow across all of the industry
verticals and geographies we address.
"Because of the investments we made throughout the downturn in
2008 and 2009 and the momentum we are generating with Epicor 9,"
Klaus said, "we believe we have the unique opportunity to drive
software growth rates that will outpace the market. Software growth
ultimately drives additional significant revenue streams for Epicor
since more than 80% of our revenues from a customer come after the
initial software sale. We plan to capitalize on our strengthening
pipelines and improving close rates by continuing to prudently
invest in our business, while ensuring we continue to drive revenue
growth, strong cash flows and profitability."
Total revenue for the 2010 first quarter was $99.3 million, with
breakeven GAAP net income. This compares to 2009 first quarter
revenue of $98.7 million, and a GAAP net loss of $1.6 million, or
loss of $0.03 per diluted share.
Non-GAAP(2) net income for the 2010 first quarter was $5.7
million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net
income of $4.7 million, or $0.08 per diluted share in the 2009
first quarter.
2010 First Quarter Revenue by Segment: 2010 first quarter
license revenue was $16.2 million, up more than 23% year over year
when compared to 2009 first quarter license revenue of $13.2
million. 2010 first quarter maintenance revenue grew year over year
by 2% to $48.0 million when compared to 2009 first quarter
maintenance revenue of $46.9 million. Consulting revenue was $31.1
million in the 2010 first quarter, down from 2009 first quarter
consulting revenue of $31.5 million. Hardware and other revenue for
the 2010 first quarter was $4.0 million, down year over year when
compared to hardware and other revenue of $7.2 million in the prior
year's first quarter.
Balance Sheet Summary: The Company's balance sheet at March 31,
2010, included cash and cash equivalents of $104.5 million. The
balance sheet benefited from free cash flow of $8.8 million during
the 2010 first quarter. The Company's total debt balance as of
March 31, 2010, consists primarily of the $230 million obligation
to holders of the Company's 2.375% senior convertible notes (less a
debt discount of $40.1 million) and $67.5 million of borrowings
under the Company's credit facility, currently priced at LIBOR plus
4.0%.
At the end of the 2010 first quarter, net accounts receivable
was approximately $83.5 million. The Company had solid cash
collections of approximately $116 million during the 2010 first
quarter. Days sales outstanding (DSOs) in the 2010 first quarter
were 76, up when compared to 74 in the fourth quarter of 2009.
Deferred revenue at the end of the 2010 first quarter was $97.9
million.
Business Outlook: For Epicor's 2010 second quarter, total
revenue is expected to be $104 to $106 million, with non-GAAP
earnings per diluted share(3) for the 2010 second quarter expected
to be $0.12 to $0.14.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains certain statements which constitute
forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include
statements regarding expected revenues (including growth rates),
earnings and earnings per share (including on a non-GAAP basis),
non-GAAP free cash flow, the Company's products, market share,
business model, sales pipelines and opportunities, competitive
advantage and other statements that are not historical fact. These
forward-looking statements are based on currently available
competitive, financial and economic data together with management's
views and assumptions regarding future events and business
performance as of the time the statements are made and are subject
to risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially
from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking
statements.
Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to,
changes in the demand for enterprise resource planning products,
particularly in light of competitive offerings; the timely
availability and market acceptance of new products and upgrades,
including Epicor 9; the impact of competitive products and pricing;
the discovery of undetected software errors; changes in the
financial condition of Epicor's major commercial customers and
Epicor's future ability to continue to develop and expand its
product and service offerings to address emerging business demand
and technological trends; and other factors discussed in Epicor's
annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 and
other reports Epicor files with the SEC. As a result of these
factors the business or prospects expected by the Company as part
of this announcement may not occur. Epicor undertakes no obligation
to revise or update publicly any forward-looking statements.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures. In
evaluating the Company's performance, management uses certain
non-GAAP financial measures to supplement consolidated financial
statements prepared under GAAP.
Non-GAAP Earnings Measure. The Company uses non-GAAP earnings
measures, adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margins and free cash flow in
this press release. Management believes these non-GAAP measures
help indicate the Company's baseline performance before gains,
losses or charges that are considered by management to be outside
on-going operating results. Accordingly, management uses these
non-GAAP measures to gain a better understanding of the Company's
comparative operating performance from period-to-period and as a
basis for planning and forecasting future periods. Management
believes these non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with the
Company's GAAP financials, provides useful information to investors
by offering:
-- the ability to make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of
the Company's on-going operating results;
-- the ability to better identify trends in the Company's underlying
business and perform related trend analysis;
-- a better understanding of how management plans and measures the
Company's underlying business; and,
-- an easier way to compare the Company's most recent results of
operations against investor and analyst financial models.
The non-GAAP financial measures for 2009 and 2010 used by the
Company are defined to include deferred revenues from NSB that were
adjusted to fair value as required by purchase accounting in
accordance with GAAP reporting, and to exclude amortization of
intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, amortization
of long-term debt discount from the Company's May 2007 convertible
note offering, the write-off of debt issuance fees, restructuring
and other, which include costs associated with workforce reductions
and a Venezuela currency devaluation. The non-GAAP financial
measures for 2010 used by the Company are also defined to reflect
income taxes at a 38% tax rate.
Management believes that the expense associated with the
amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets is
appropriate to be excluded because a significant portion of the
purchase price for acquisitions may be allocated to intangible
assets that have short lives and exclusion of the amortization
expense allows comparisons of operating results that are consistent
over time for both the Company's newly acquired and long-held
businesses. Management also believes that the exclusion of
stock-based compensation allows for more accurate comparisons of
our operating results to our peer companies because of varying
available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the
variety of award types which effect the calculations of stock-based
compensation. Management believes it is appropriate to exclude the
Venezuela currency devaluation charge, the write-off of debt
issuance fees and the amortization of long-term debt discount from
the Company's May 2007 convertible note offering, as well as
restructuring and other charges, which included costs associated
with the integration of NSB into Epicor and costs associated with
workforce reductions, because these charges are not related to the
Company's ongoing business operations and it allows for more
accurate comparisons of our operating results to our peer
companies. Finally, management believes that using a 38% tax rate
is appropriate because it allows comparisons of our operating
results that are more consistent with prior periods presented, as
well as more accurate comparisons of our operating results to our
peer companies.
General. These non-GAAP measures have limitations, however,
because they do not include all items of income and expense that
impact the Company's operations. Management compensates for these
limitations by also considering the Company's GAAP results. The
non-GAAP financial measures the Company uses are not prepared in
accordance with, and should not be considered an alternative to,
measurements required by GAAP, such as operating income, net income
and income per share, and should not be considered measures of the
Company's liquidity. The presentation of this additional
information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measures. In
addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable
to similar measures reported by other companies.
