SELECTICA REPORTS 33% REVENUE INCREASE
FOR THE SECOND QUARTER OF FISCAL 2008
SAN JOSE, Calif. – November 7, 2007 – Selectica, Inc. (Nasdaq: SLTC), a leading provider of enterprise contract lifecycle management and sales configuration solutions, today announced financial results for the second fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2007.
Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2008 was $4.0 million, in line with guidance and an increase of 33% from revenue of $3.0 million for the same period in the previous year. The increase in revenue is primarily due to higher sales of both sales configuration and contract management solutions.
Net loss for the second quarter of fiscal 2008 was $17.8 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, which compares to a net loss of $5.4 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the same period in the previous year. During the second quarter of fiscal 2008, the Company recorded $18.0 million in restructuring charges and legal costs associated with the settlement of patent litigation and the investigation into historical stock option granting practices. Excluding these expenses, non-GAAP net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2008 was $0.2 million, or $0.01 per diluted share.
“We had a highly productive quarter as we generated revenues at the high end of our targeted range, continued to drive costs out of the business, completed upgrades to our core solutions, and resolved long-standing issues that had been impediments to the growth of the Company,” said Robert Jurkowski, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Selectica. “Following the change in management, we completed a strategic review of our operations and determined that both our sales configuration and contract management business units have attractive growth opportunities. Our contract management solutions business is continuing to trend positively and is steadily adding new customers for both subscriptions and traditional licenses. Our sales configuration solutions business also experienced an uptick in activity as we closed a significant license deal in the quarter. We are also continuing to upgrade our installed base with new configurator and pricer solutions and believe we now have a robust application that can be effectively sold through strategic partnerships and Systems Integrators. We believe that the revitalization of our sales configuration business will be an important contributor to the future growth and profitability of the Company.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, Selectica uses non-GAAP measures of operating results, net income and income per share, which are adjusted to exclude certain costs, expenses, and losses we believe appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our past financial performance and also our prospects for the future. These adjustments to our current period GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of Selectica’s underlying operational results and trends and our marketplace performance. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or diluted net income per share prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
