Interactive Intelligence Reports 2016 First Quarter Financial Results

Interactive Intelligence Group Inc. (Nasdaq: ININ), a global leader of cloud services for customer engagement, communications and collaboration, has announced financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2016.

“PureCloud® sales exceeded our expectations this quarter,” said Dr. Donald Brown, Interactive Intelligence founder and CEO. “We went from 24 PureCloud® customers at the end of last year, to 142 by the close of the first quarter, and we’re still in the very early stages of selling it worldwide. We’re excited to see both large and small customers embrace the speed to value delivered through PureCloud®, which offers a compelling feature-set delivered through a flexible, monthly licensing model enabling rapid configuration and deployment.”

Brown added, “Our indirect channel rapidly adopted PureCloud®, as partners drove almost 25% of the PureCloud® deals in the quarter, and our strategy to simplify our licensing model through monthly contracts was leveraged by the vast majority of our new customers. Overall, we participated in more deals than ever in our history and added a record 163 new customers across all three of our product lines in the quarter.

“Although results from our on-premises solution came in as expected, more of these contracts came from our partner channel in this and the previous quarter,” Brown continued. “This impacted our professional services revenues and the difference went to our bottom line. The business still efficiently generated cash in the quarter, with operating cash flow of $11.2 million.”

Brown concluded, “We are focused on becoming the leader in the customer engagement market, and our strategy is based on providing industry-leading solutions for organizations anywhere, of any size, and implemented in any way, whether in the cloud or on-premises. We plan to gain market share by addressing the fastest growing segment of the market with PureCloud®, while giving no ground to competitors in traditional segments with our robust CIC and CaaS offerings.”

Non-GAAP Measures

The non-GAAP measures shown in this release include revenue which was not recognized on a GAAP basis due to purchase accounting adjustments, exclude non-cash stock-based compensation expense, certain acquisition-related expenses, the amortization of certain intangible assets related to acquisitions by the company and the amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs and adjust for non-GAAP income tax expense. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included with the financial information included in this press release. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions, and amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs are non-cash, and non-GAAP income tax expense is pro forma based on non-GAAP earnings. 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, our management believes that these non-GAAP measures improve management's and investors' ability to compare the company's financial performance with other companies in the technology industry. Because stock-based compensation expense, certain acquisition-related expenses, amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions and amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs amounts can vary significantly between companies, it is useful to compare results excluding these amounts. Our management also reviews financial statements that exclude stock-based compensation expense, certain acquisition-related expenses, amortization of intangibles amounts related to acquisitions, amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs, and pro forma income tax expense for its internal budgets.

Forward Looking Statements

This release may contain certain forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the following: rapid technological changes and competitive pressures in the industry; worldwide economic conditions and their impact on customer purchasing decisions; the company's profitability; the company’s ability to: manage successfully its growth; meet debt service requirements; manage successfully its increasingly complex third-party relationships resulting from the software and hardware components being licensed or sold with its product offerings; maintain successful relationships with certain suppliers which may be impacted by the competition in the technology industry; maintain successful relationships with its current and any new partners; maintain and improve its current products; develop new products; protect its proprietary rights and sensitive customer information adequately; improve the company’s brand and name recognition; successfully integrate acquired businesses; and other factors described in the company's SEC filings, including the company's latest annual report on Form 10-K.
