SAN JOSE, CA -- 01/29/2008 -- Callidus Software Inc. (NASDAQ: CALD), the leader in Sales Performance Management (SPM), today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.

In addition, the net new Annual Contract Value (ACV) of on-demand bookings in the quarter was up over 850% to $6.5 million, compared to the same quarter last year, and up over 150%, compared to Q3 2007.
Fourth quarter net loss was $2.7 million, or ($0.09) per share, and included $1.0 million of stock-based compensation expense, $1.5 million of restructuring expense and a benefit for income taxes of $0.6 million. This compares to net income of $0.1 million, or $0.00 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2006, which included $1.1 million of stock-based compensation expense and a benefit for income taxes of approximately $62,000.
Cash and investments totaled $50.6 million at December 31, 2007, a decrease of $2.3 million from December 31, 2006.
For the full fiscal year 2007, total revenues were up 34% from $76.1 million in 2006 to $101.7 million. License revenues were up 3% to $28.6 million in 2007. Subscription and support revenues were up 33% to $23.9 million in 2007. Annual Contract Value Bookings for the On-Demand business were up 285% to $11.7 million in 2007. Net loss for fiscal 2007 was $12.3 million, or ($0.42) per share, which included $5.0 million of stock-based compensation, $1.5 million of restructuring expense and a benefit for income taxes of $0.5 million. This compares to 2006 net loss of $8.7 million, or ($0.31) per share, which included $4.8 million of stock-based compensation expense and a benefit for income taxes of approximately $62,000.
"Callidus crossed $100 million in annual revenues for the first time in 2007," said Leslie Stretch, president and CEO at Callidus Software. "Our revenues, combined with our on-demand bookings, reflect the growing demand for sales performance management solutions. I am especially pleased with the strong growth in our on-demand business. We ended 2007 with $14.8 million in cumulative ACV bookings, up 78% compared to the end of Q3. We were also able to deliver improved operating expenses in Q4 as we realized some early cost savings from the reduction in force we executed in December. We expect further improvements will crystallize in 2008."
"I am pleased with how quickly we were able to innovate and meet the growing demand for Software-as-a-Service (SaaS). We continue to grow our business rapidly and believe that we are the clear market leader in the on-demand SPM space. Our on-demand customers range from 100 payees to over 5,000 payees and span many industries in over 120 countries," Stretch concluded.
Recent Business Highlights
- -- Including the Compensation Technologies acquisition, Callidus now has
over 44,000 payees signed-up for its Callidus On-Demand solution.
- -- Callidus signed an exclusive resale agreement with IMS Health, the
world's leading provider of market intelligence to the pharmaceutical and
healthcare industries. Callidus On-Demand will be deployed as the software
platform for IMS' new IMS Precision Compensation™ offering.
- -- Callidus was one of only two vendors to receive a "Positive" rating
from Gartner, Inc., the highest rating given in the firm's MarketScope for
Insurance Incentive Compensation Management Applications, 2007. In the
report, Gartner evaluated eight incentive compensation management vendors.
- -- Callidus released Version 5.2 of its suite of software products. The
5.2 release delivered key enhancements to scalability, analytics, and
producer management.
- -- Callidus acquired Compensation Technologies to add a consulting and
hosting business to the portfolio as part of the drive to enhance the SaaS
business.
- -- Callidus executed cost savings measures, including the reduction of
its workforce by 8%. Callidus also announced a $10 million share
repurchase program, which is expected to begin on February 1, 2008.
Financial Outlook
- -- Total revenues for the first quarter of 2008, which will include
revenues from Compensation Technologies, is expected to be between $25.0
million and $26.5 million.
- -- Operating expenses, including stock-based compensation of
approximately $1.0 million, are expected to be between $13.2 million and
$14.0 million as compared to $15.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2007.
- -- For fiscal 2008, we expect subscription and support revenues to be
between $35.0 million and $40.0 million, an increase of 47% to 67% from the
previous year. As we increase our focus on our on-demand service, license
revenues will likely be lower in 2008 compared to 2007. We are not
providing full-year guidance on total revenues, expenses, or earnings per
share. Moving forward, we anticipate that subscription and support
revenues and improved profitability will be central characteristics of our
business.
