Pervasive Software Reports Profitable Results for Its Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2006
Company reports 22nd consecutive profitable quarter and authorizes a new $5.0 million stock repurchase program
AUSTIN, TEXAS – July 25, 2006 – Pervasive Software® Inc. (NASDAQ:PVSW), a global value leader in data infrastructure software, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ending June 30, 2006. The June quarter marks the company’s twenty-second consecutive quarter of profitability.
Revenue was $11.2 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006, compared to $12.6 million for the fourth quarter of last fiscal year. Net income was $3.6 million, or $0.16 diluted earnings per share, for the quarter, compared to net income of $1.7 million, or $0.07 diluted earnings per share, for the fourth quarter of last fiscal year. The company’s results for the quarter ending June 30, 2006 included an income tax benefit of $2.3 million versus a provision of $0.1 million in the June quarter of 2005. The company’s continued profitability and stated focus on profitability in the coming year prompted a $2.3 million reduction of a portion of its valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets, giving rise to the tax benefit referred to above. On a pro forma basis, as described below, Pervasive realized net income of $2.3 million, or $0.10 diluted earnings per share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006, compared to pro forma net income of $2.0 million, or $0.09 diluted earnings per share, in the fourth quarter of last fiscal year.
Pervasive continued to generate positive cash flow from operations in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, ending the quarter with $43.5 million in cash and marketable securities and no debt, representing approximately $1.90 per issued and outstanding share.
“I am pleased with the results we achieved in the June quarter, representing our twenty-second consecutive quarter of profitability,” said John Farr, president and chief executive officer for Pervasive. “We managed through some significant events during fiscal year 2006, including the alignment of our teams along product lines, changes in executive management, consolidation of a large portion of our off-shore technical operations back to Austin and reassessment of and reduced emphasis on our open source database initiative. We continue to manage our business for optimum profit and cash flow generation as we solidify our foundation for future growth investments to complement our core businesses.”
Pervasive acquired 612,100 shares of Pervasive common stock on the open market at a total cost of approximately $2.5 million, or approximately $4.12 price per share, during
the quarter ended June 30, 2006. The company has now fully utilized the authorized repurchase funds under its $5.0 million stock repurchase program announced in July 2003. The Board of Directors has approved a new stock repurchase plan effective July 25, 2006, whereby the company may repurchase shares of its common stock with a value of up to $5.0 million. Under the company’s prior two repurchase programs, more than 2,086,000 shares of the company’s common stock have been acquired on the open market at a total cost of approximately $7.4 million. Depending on market conditions and other factors, such purchases may be commenced or suspended at any time without prior notice.
Revenue for the full fiscal year ended June 30, 2006 was $45.6 million, compared to $48.4 million for the previous fiscal year. Net income was $4.8 million, or $0.21 diluted earnings per share, for the full fiscal year, compared to net income of $4.0 million, or $0.17 diluted earnings per share, for the previous fiscal year. The company’s results for fiscal year 2006 included an income tax benefit of $2.2 million versus a provision of $0.3 million in 2005. The company’s continued profitability and stated focus on profitability in the coming year prompted a $2.3 million reduction of a portion of its valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets, giving rise to the tax benefit referred to above. On a pro forma basis, as described below, Pervasive realized pro forma net income of $7.6 million, or $0.32 diluted earnings per share for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, compared to pro forma net income from continuing operations of $5.3 million, or $0.23 diluted earnings per share, for the previous fiscal year.
“This brings to a close our fiscal year 2006 and we look forward to 2007,” continued Farr. “Our objectives for 2007 are focused on the design, validation and delivery of the next major release of our embedded database product near the end of the fiscal year, continued success in growing the sales of our integration product line through highly leverageable and more profitable indirect channels, and the possibility of future acquisitions as we continue to scrutinize the various opportunities coming to our attention, all while maintaining our intense focus on profitability. We continue to be successful generating positive cash flows and enjoy a strong balance sheet which allows us the opportunity to return value to our shareholders in the form of share repurchases on the open market. We enter fiscal 2007 with a new $5 million authorized program for this purpose, our third such program.”
Business Outlook
For the first fiscal 2007 quarter ending September 30, 2006, Pervasive expects revenue to be in the range of $10.5 million to $11.5 million and GAAP-basis diluted earnings per share of $0.00 to $0.03. GAAP-basis profitability is expected to include amortization of purchased intangibles and stock-based compensation expense, together representing approximately $1.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2007, as well as a provision for domestic income tax expense at an effective rate of 34% on pre-tax income before non-deductible amortization of purchased intangibles and stock-based compensation expense. In the September quarter and beyond, the company intends to present pro forma diluted earnings per share, before amortization of purchased intangibles and stock-based
compensation expense, and with prior periods tax effected on a pro forma basis at rates consistent with rates expected in the coming year. Tax provisions as previously reported in comparable periods prior to the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006 were nominal as a result of the previously discussed valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets. The company expects these pro forma adjustments to result in pro forma diluted earnings per share of approximately $0.04 to $0.07 in the September quarter, compared to pro forma diluted and fully taxed earnings per share of $0.04 for the first quarter of fiscal year 2006. The expectation for revenue for the quarter ending September 30, 2006 reflects the potential for a sequential decrease from the quarter ended June 30, 2006 due primarily to the typical international seasonality associated with the summer months.
Pervasive management believes that the pro forma results described in this release are useful for an understanding of Pervasive’s ongoing operations because GAAP results include a non-cash tax benefit associated with the partial reversal of a valuation reserve on net deferred tax assets, non-cash charges associated with the amortization of purchased intangibles and stock-based compensation expense and non-recurring management restructuring charges. Management uses these pro forma results to compare the company’s performance to that of prior periods for analysis of trends, and to evaluate the company’s financial strength, develop budgets, manage expenditures and develop a financial outlook. Pro forma results are supplemental and are not intended as a substitute for GAAP results.
