REDWOOD SHORES, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Saba (NASDAQ: SABA), the premier People Cloud provider, today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended May 31, 2011.
“We grew our SaaS bookings 276% and SaaS revenue 59% in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011. We now have one of the fastest growing SaaS businesses among public companies,” said Bobby Yazdani, Chairman and CEO of Saba. “We signed four of the five largest transactions in our history during the fiscal year, with all four customers selecting Saba People Cloud Applications. The transformation of our business to SaaS from license is well ahead of plan. I want to take this opportunity to thank the Saba team for all their hard work and dedication, and congratulate them on their success in enabling Saba to become a world-class SaaS company.”
SaaS revenue steadily increased during fiscal year 2011, growing 8% in the first quarter, 19% in the second quarter, 42% in the third quarter, and 59% in the fourth quarter over the respective year-ago periods. Nine of our 12 largest deals in the fourth quarter were for SaaS offerings. The number of new SaaS transactions over $50,000 increased almost three-fold in fiscal year 2011 over fiscal year 2010.
Results for the Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2011
Revenues: Total GAAP revenues were $29.9 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011, up 1% from $29.6 million in the same quarter last year. Total Non-GAAP revenues in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011 were $30.0 million, up 1%, compared to $29.6 million in the same quarter last year. Non-GAAP revenues reflect the exclusion of the fair value adjustments to deferred revenue due to acquisitions.
For fiscal year 2011, total GAAP revenues increased to $116.7 million from $109.6 million in the year ago period. Total Non-GAAP revenues for fiscal year 2011 increased 7% to $116.7 million from $109.6 million in the year ago period.
Deferred Revenue: Total Deferred revenue increased to a record $45.8 million at the end of the fourth quarter of 2011, growing 24% year-over-year and 8% sequentially.
Fourth Quarter Investments: During the fourth quarter, we accelerated our investments in a number of key areas by approximately $2.0 million or $0.07 per share to support our fiscal year 2012 growth initiatives. Areas of investment included:
- Sales Force Expansion -- added country managers in Canada, India, and China and continued expansion of sales capacity and management in existing and new markets
- International Expansion -- launched our operations in China and grew our operations in Latin America and Asia Pacific
- Cloud Operations -- invested in our global cloud operations in preparation for the major release of our new People Cloud Applications which is planned for this Fall and invested in a number of new technological innovations that are planned to be released throughout fiscal year 2012. We also added key executives to run our Cloud business including Shawn Farshchi as Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer and Daniel Lipkin, Vice President of Technology
- Acquisitions -- closed our acquisition of two leading testing and assessment software companies
Earnings (Loss) per Share: GAAP loss per share was $0.17 in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011 compared to fully diluted earnings per share of $0.03 in the same period last year. Non-GAAP loss per share was $0.10 in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011 compared to non-GAAP fully diluted earnings per share of $0.08 in the fourth quarter of last year.
For fiscal year 2011, GAAP loss per share was $0.26 compared to fully diluted earnings per share of $0.09 in fiscal year 2010. Non-GAAP loss per share was $0.02 in fiscal year 2011 compared to non-GAAP fully diluted earnings per share of $0.29 in fiscal year 2010.
Our non-GAAP results are calculated by adjusting GAAP results for the impact of certain items including (i) non-cash amortization of intangibles, (ii) non-cash charges related to share-based compensation expenses, (iii) non-operating reorganization costs, (iv) fair value adjustments to deferred revenue due to acquisitions and (v) other acquisition related costs for legal and accounting services. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results is included in the financial statements accompanying this press release.
Cash: Cash flow from operations was $4.0 million in fiscal year 2011, and cash and cash equivalents at May 31, 2011 were $25.9 million.
Share Repurchase: The Company repurchased 243,648 shares of common stock during the quarter for $2.3 million, bringing the total number of shares repurchased under its share repurchase program to 777,291 shares for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $5.5 million. The Company now has approximately $4.5 million remaining under the repurchase program.
Customers: We added 40 new enterprise customers in the quarter including Fiat/Chrysler, Shire Pharmaceuticals, Fitch Ratings, and Kumon Institute of Education.
In addition, we expanded our footprint with a number of our existing customers in the quarter including W.W. Grainger, Five Guys, Union Bank, Bio-Rad, Novartis, France Telecom, and Kronos.
Partners: We added 14 partners in the fourth quarter including Aon/Hewitt, Satyam, and British Telecom. We have signed 36 new partners in fiscal year 2011 bringing our total number of partners to 107. Our partners once again contributed over 50% of our new business in the quarter.
Acquisitions: We acquired Pedagogue Solutions and Comartis, two leading software companies in the testing and assessment market. These companies provide the foundation of our new Testing and Assessment offerings. “The ability to test and assess skill levels and learning effectiveness is an essential element of any learning management system,” said Bobby Yazdani, Chairman and CEO of Saba. “Organizations need to understand how effectively their people are trained and whether the imparted knowledge and developed skills are being successfully applied. In addition, our new testing and assessment offerings broaden our market opportunities beyond the traditional talent management space.”
Business Outlook
The following statements are based on current expectations as of the date of this release. These statements are forward-looking, and actual results may differ materially. Saba does not undertake any obligations to update these forward-looking statements.
For fiscal year 2012, ending May 31, 2012, we are forecasting total GAAP revenues in the range of $130 million to $133 million.
We are forecasting total bookings to grow approximately 16% to 18% in fiscal year 2012 over fiscal year 2011 with SaaS bookings growth in excess of 110% in fiscal year 2012 over fiscal year 2011.
We expect our operating income in fiscal year 2012 to be impacted by our recent success in selling multi-hundred thousand subscribers on the Cloud. As part of the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board standard for multiple-element revenue arrangements, ASU 2009-13, for certain transactions, we are required to recognize a portion of the respective professional services revenue ratably over the life of the contract while incurring the professional services expense upfront. We estimate this to negatively impact our earnings per share by $0.06 to $0.08 in fiscal year 2012.
As such, we are forecasting GAAP net loss to range from $0.39 to $0.45 per share and non-GAAP net loss to range from $0.17 to $0.23 per share.
Fiscal year 2012 non-GAAP outlook excludes non-cash amortization of intangibles, charges related to stock-based compensation expenses and the impact to revenue for fair value adjustments to deferred revenue due to acquisitions.
Accounting Changes
As previously disclosed, beginning with the third quarter of fiscal year 2011, Saba adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board standard for multiple-element revenue arrangements, ASU 2009-13 for applicable arrangements entered into or materially modified beginning June 1, 2010 (the beginning of the Company’s fiscal year). ASU 2009-13 allows for separate revenue recognition for professional services, with stand-alone value, performed for cloud customers. Professional services revenue for cloud contracts are now recognized as delivered, providing all other revenue recognition criteria are met, rather than being recognized over the life of the cloud contract, as in periods prior to June 1, 2010.
Saba also changed its accounting policy for sales commissions related to cloud transactions from expensing as incurred to capitalizing commissions and expensing them ratably over the life of the contract. This change in commission accounting more closely aligns the expense recognition for cloud transactions with the time period in which revenue is recognized and conforms to prevailing industry practice.
Please refer to the attached tables for the impact of these changes on current and prior period results. You can also visit our website at http://investor.saba.com to view the updated balance sheet and income statement for fiscal year 2010 and the first three quarters of fiscal year 2011.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
Saba has provided its non-GAAP net income and net income per share data in this press release as additional information for investors. This measure is not in accordance with, or an alternative to, generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), and is intended to supplement GAAP financial information, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Other non-GAAP measures provided by the Company in this press release include bookings, defined as total revenues plus the change in total deferred revenue, and annual contract value, defined as the amount of a transaction generally recognized within a twelve month period.
Saba believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors regarding its results of operations. Saba believes it also provides an alternative method of assessing Saba’s operating results that Saba believes is focused on its core on-going operations and may allow investors to perform additional meaningful period-to-period comparisons of its operating results. In addition, Saba’s management team uses these measures for reviewing its financial results, and for budget and planning purposes.

| The company’s non-GAAP financial measures exclude share-based compensation expenses, which consist of expenses for grants of stock options, awards of restricted stock units and purchases of common stock under its Employee Stock Purchase Plan, which Saba began recording under ASC 718-10 (formerly SFAS 123(R)) in the first quarter of fiscal 2007. The Company excludes share-based compensation expenses from our non-GAAP financial measures because the company believes that the information is not a meaningful indicator of the company's operating performance. Weighted average dilutive shares is computed using the method required by ASC 718-10 (formerly SFAS 123(R)) for both GAAP and non-GAAP diluted net income per share. |
|
Amortization of Acquired Developed Technology and Purchased Intangible Assets |
| As a result of various acquisitions of companies and technologies, the company has incurred charges for amortization of acquired developed technology and purchased intangible assets. Management excludes these items from our non-GAAP financial measures when evaluating its operating performance because it believes that it provides for better comparability between periods and provides results that are more reflective of the operating performance of the business. Additionally, management believes that excluding these items facilitates comparisons to the results of other companies in our industry, which have their own unique acquisition histories. |
|
Non-Operating Costs |
| During the third quarter of fiscal year 2010, the company incurred non-operating severance costs related primarily to reorganization in our Marketing and R&D functions. These costs relate to events which, in the company’s view, are not incurred in the ordinary course of operations. The company’s management excludes these costs when evaluating its ongoing performance and/or predicting its earning trends, and therefore excludes these costs when presenting non-GAAP financial measures. |
|
Restructuring |
| During the third quarter of fiscal year 2009, the company implemented a restructuring program to reduce headcount by approximately 5%. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2010, the company adjusted its estimates related to severance costs. The adjustment is classified as restructuring expense in the statement of operations. Management excludes these items from our non-GAAP financial measures when evaluating its operating performance because it believes that it provides for better comparability between periods and provides results that are more reflective of the operating performance of the business. |
|
Fair Value Adjustment to Deferred Revenue |
|
The company includes revenue associated with deferred revenue from acquisitions that was excluded as a result of purchase accounting adjustments to fair value, as required by GAAP, as management believes that it is reflective of ongoing operating results. |
|
Acquisition Related Expenses |
| As a result of the Comartis Group and Pedagogue Solutions, Inc. acquisitions, the company has incurred charges for legal and accounting costs. Management excludes these items from our non-GAAP financial measures when evaluating its operating performance because it believes that it provides for better comparability between periods and provides results that are more reflective of the operating performance of the business. Additionally, management believes that excluding these items facilitates comparisons to the results of other companies in our industry, which have their own unique acquisition histories. |
