SEACHANGE INTERNATIONAL REPORTS

FIRST QUARTER FISCAL 2017 RESULTS

Company Maintains Outlook for Growth and Profitability for Full Fiscal Year 2017

ACTON, Mass. (June 7, 2016) –SeaChange International, Inc. (NASDAQ: SEAC) today reported first quarter fiscal 2017 revenue of $21.6 million and U.S. GAAP loss from operations of $9.6 million, or $0.28 per basic share, compared to first quarter fiscal 2016 revenue of $23.2 million and U.S. GAAP operating loss of $9.5 million, or $0.28 per basic share.

The Company’s U.S. GAAP first quarter fiscal 2017 results included non-GAAP charges of $2.8 million, which consisted primarily of severance and other restructuring costs, stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets from prior acquisitions, and other non-operating expense professional fees, while the first quarter fiscal 2016 results included $2.7 million of similar non-GAAP charges. Non-GAAP loss from operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was $6.8 million, or $0.20 per basic share, which was identical to the first quarter of fiscal 2016 of $6.8 million, or $0.20 per basic share.

“We’re pleased to have achieved first quarter results that are in line with our guidance, which primarily reflect our ability to more rapidly secure customer acceptance of our next-generation software products, as well as our ongoing progress in converting our legacy back office customer base to Adrenalin, including two additional North American service providers during the quarter,” said Ed Terino, Chief Executive Officer, SeaChange. “Based on accelerated customer delivery and ongoing operational improvements, which are further bolstered by our acquisition of DCC Labs last month to reduce our software development costs, SeaChange is on track for achieving full-year profitability, year-over-year revenue growth and double-digit operating margins.”

Anthony Dias, Chief Financial Officer, SeaChange, said, “In the first quarter, we successfully controlled our expenses as expected, while continuing to ramp up our sales and marketing operations for more effective regional reach in the Americas and Europe, and in emerging markets including OTT. By continuing to improve our operational performance, as well as realizing the benefits from our restructuring efforts, we anticipate achieving cost savings of approximately $9 million for this fiscal year. Some of these savings will enable us to invest in our sales and marketing initiatives, as well as contribute significantly to our goal of achieving profitability on a full-year basis for fiscal 2017.”

Commenting on the Company’s outlook, Dias added, “We anticipate our second quarter fiscal 2017 revenue to be in the range of $23 million to $25 million, and non-GAAP operating loss to be in the range of $0.10 to $0.15 per basicshare. For full fiscal 2017, we maintain our outlook for revenues to be in the range of $110 million to $120 million and non-GAAP operating income to be in the range of $0.05 to $0.15 per fully diluted share. Today, we’re providing investors with greater visibility into SeaChange revenues, by type, in a supplemental schedule that we’ve included in our press release. We anticipate updating this schedule in our quarterly announcements going forward.”

SeaChange continues to have a strong balance sheet and ended the first quarter of fiscal 2017 with cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities of $64.5 million, and no debt outstanding.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

We define non-GAAP income (loss) from operations as U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) operating loss plus stock-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets, earn-outs and change in fair value of earn-outs, non-operating expense professional fees and severance and other restructuring costs. We discuss non-GAAP income (loss) from operations in our quarterly earnings releases and certain other communications as we believe non-GAAP income (loss) from operations is an important measure that is not calculated according to U.S. GAAP. We use non-GAAP income (loss) from operations in internal forecasts and models when establishing internal operating budgets, supplementing the financial results and forecasts reported to our Board of Directors, determining a component of bonus compensation for executive officers and other key employees based on operating performance and evaluating short-term and long-term operating trends in our operations. We believe that non-GAAP income (loss) from operations assists in providing an enhanced understanding of our underlying operational measures to manage the business, to evaluate performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace, and to establish operational goals. We believe that these non-GAAP financial adjustments are useful to investors because they allow investors to evaluate the effectiveness of the methodology and information used by management in our financial and operational decision-making.

Non-GAAP income (loss) from operations is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with U.S. GAAP. This non-GAAP financial measure may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. We expect to continue to incur expenses similar to the non-GAAP income (loss) from operations financial adjustments described above, and investors should not infer from our presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure that these costs are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring.

In managing and reviewing our business performance, we exclude a number of items required by U.S. GAAP. Management believes that excluding these items is useful in understanding the trends and managing our operations. We provide these supplemental non-GAAP measures in order to assist the investment community to see SeaChange through the “eyes of management,” and therefore enhance the understanding of SeaChange’s operating performance. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative to, our reported results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures reflect adjustments based on the following items:

Amortization of Intangible Assets. We incur amortization expense of intangible assets related to various acquisitions that have been made in recent years. These intangible assets are valued at the time of acquisition, are then amortized over a period of several years after the acquisition and generally cannot be changed or influenced by management after the acquisition. We believe that exclusion of these expenses allows comparisons of operating results that are consistent over time for both the Company’s newly-acquired and long-held businesses.

Stock-based Compensation Expense. We incur expenses related to stock-based compensation included in our U.S. GAAP presentation of cost of revenues and operating expenses. Although stock-based compensation is an expense we incur and is viewed as a form of compensation, the expense varies in amount from period to period, and is affected by market forces that are difficult to predict and are not within the control of management, such as the market price and volatility of our shares, risk-free interest rates and the expected term and forfeiture rates of the awards.

Earn-outs and Change in Fair Value of Earn-outs. Earn-outs and the change in the fair value of earn-outs are considered by management to be non-recurring expenses to the former shareholders of the businesses we acquire. We also incur expenses due to changes in fair value related to contingent consideration that we believe would otherwise impair comparability among periods.

SeaChange Q1 FY17 Results/Page 9

Professional Fees - Other. We have excluded the effect of legal and other professional fees associated with our acquisitions, divestitures, litigation and strategic alternatives because the amounts are considered significant non-operating expenses.

Severance and Other Restructuring. We incur charges due to the restructuring of our business, including severance charges and facility reductions resulting from our restructuring and streamlining efforts and any changes due to revised estimates, which we generally would not have otherwise incurred in the periods presented as part of our continuing operations.

Depreciation Expense. We incur depreciation expense related to capital assets purchased to support the ongoing operations of the business. These assets are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the useful life of the asset. Purchases of such assets may vary significantly from period to period and without any correlation to underlying operating performance. Management believes that exclusion of depreciation expense allows comparisons of operating results that are consistent across past, present and future periods.
