Interactive Intelligence Reports Record Third Quarter Revenues
29 percent increase in revenues drives profitability
INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 29, 2007 -“ Interactive Intelligence Inc. (Nasdaq: ININ), a global developer of business communications solutions, reported record results for the quarter and nine-month period ended Sept. 30, 2007.
For the third quarter, revenues in 2007 were a record $28.7 million, up 29 percent over revenues of $22.2 million in 2006. Operating income for the third quarter increased 23 percent to $2.1 million in 2007 from $1.7 million in 2006, which included stock-based compensation expense of $812,000 in 2007 and $451,000 in 2006. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) for the third quarter were $0.13 in 2007. EPS in the same quarter last year were $0.36, including a non-cash income tax benefit of $5.0 million, or $0.26 per share, recorded to reduce the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets.
For the third quarter, non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) net income was $3.3 million in 2007, or EPS of $0.17, compared to non-GAAP net income of $2.2 million in 2006, or EPS of $0.12. The non-GAAP differences were due to exclusion of the non-cash income tax benefit recorded in the third quarter of 2006 and stock-based compensation expense recorded in both years.
-śWe are seeing growth in all major geographies,-ť said Interactive Intelligence founder and CEO, Dr. Donald E. Brown. -śDuring the quarter we experienced strength in large contact center sales, as well as a rise in the licensing of our foundational voice over IP products, such as our gateways and media servers. These higher revenues are driving steady increases in profitability while we continue to invest in the development of new technology.-ť
For the nine months ended Sept. 30, revenues in 2007 were a record $79.9 million, up 35 percent over revenues of $59.4 million in 2006. Operating income for the nine months ended Sept. 30 increased 48 percent to $5.4 million in 2007 from $3.7 million in 2006, which included stock-based compensation expense of $2.3 million in 2007 and $1.6 million in 2006. EPS for the nine months ended Sept. 30 were $0.33 in 2007. EPS for the same period in 2006 were $0.48, including the non-cash income tax benefit of $5.0 million.
Cash and short-term investments as of Sept. 30, 2007 totaled $34.4 million, up from $27.1 million on Dec. 31, 2006. Cash flow from operations for the first nine months of 2007 was $9.8 million, compared to $6.6 million for the first nine months of 2006.
As further testament to its success in the contact center market, industry analyst firm, Gartner, positioned Interactive Intelligence in the leaders-™ quadrant of its recently published Contact Center Infrastructure report.
An additional benchmark of the company-™s continued growth was a jump this year of 21 spots to rank 209th among Software Magazine-™s 500 largest global software and services suppliers.
Interactive Intelligence was also added earlier this year to the Russell 2000® Index, a listing of U.S. stocks from industry-leading small-cap companies.
Interactive Intelligence will host a conference call today, Oct. 29, at 4:30 p.m. EDT, featuring Dr. Brown and the company-™s CFO, Stephen R. Head. There will be a live Q&A session following opening remarks.
To access the teleconference, please dial 1 866.316.1372 at least five minutes prior to the start of the call. Ask for the teleconference by the following name: "Interactive Intelligence third quarter earnings call."
The teleconference will also be broadcast live on Interactive Intelligence-™s investor relations' page at http://www.inin.com/investors. An archive of the teleconference will be posted following the call.
The non-GAAP measures shown in this release exclude non-cash stock-based compensation expense for stock options and a non-cash income tax benefit. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included after the financial information included in this press release. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Management believes that the presentation of non-GAAP results, when shown in conjunction with corresponding GAAP measures, provides useful information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends related to the company-™s results of operations. Further, management believes that these non-GAAP measures improve management-™s and investors-™ ability to compare the company-™s financial performance with historical periods because certain historical periods did not include stock-based compensation expense for stock options or the non-cash income tax benefit related to the reduction in the valuation allowance for the deferred tax assets. Interactive Intelligence-™s management uses these non-GAAP results to compare its performance to its competitors in the software industry. Because the stock-based compensation expense and non-cash tax benefit can vary significantly between companies, it is useful to compare results without these amounts. Management also uses financial statements that do not include stock-based compensation expense related for stock options or non-cash income tax benefits for its internal budgets.
