CUPERTINO, CA – March 4, 2010 – ArcSight, Inc. (NASDAQ: ARST), a leading global provider of security and compliance management solutions that protect enterprises and government agencies, today announced financial results for its fiscal third quarter ended January 31, 2010.
For the third quarter of fiscal 2010, ArcSight reported total revenues of $46.1 million compared to total revenues of $36.4 million reported in the third quarter of fiscal 2009. Net income on a GAAP basis for the third quarter of fiscal 2010 was $2.2 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, including $223,000 in amortization of intangible assets and $2.8 million in stock-based compensation expense. This compares to a GAAP net income of $5.1 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, reported in the third quarter of fiscal 2009, including $210,000 in amortization of intangible assets and $1.7 million in stock-based compensation expense. During the third quarter of fiscal 2009, ArcSight made significant reductions in operating expenses in response to the rapid deterioration in global and U.S. economic and financial market conditions, resulting in an unusually high level of profitability during the period as revenues remained relatively strong. In fiscal 2010, the company returned to its more typical investment for future growth, making it difficult to compare third quarter fiscal 2010 profitability with the same period of the prior year.
Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2010 was $5.3 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, which compares to a non-GAAP net income of $6.9 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, reported in the third quarter of fiscal 2009, in each case excluding the above-mentioned amortization and stock-based compensation charges.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2010, the company generated $23.2 million in cash from operations and closed the third quarter with cash, cash equivalents and short term investments of $131.8 million.
“We are very pleased with another quarter of strong results and the growth opportunities going forward,” commented Tom Reilly, president and CEO of ArcSight. “We believe the long-term growth opportunities in the public sector and emerging regulations in healthcare and critical infrastructure verticals will continue to fuel investments in security and compliance solutions.”
Business Outlook
The following forward-looking statements reflect expectations as of March 4, 2010. Results may be materially different and could be affected by the factors detailed in this release and in recent ArcSight SEC filings.
Fourth Quarter Expectations – Ending April 30, 2010
Based on current business trends and the visibility the company has from third quarter performance, ArcSight expects revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 to be in the range of $48 million to $52 million, representing growth in the range of 22-32% over the same quarter of fiscal 2009.
ArcSight expects non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 to be in the range of $5.0 million to $6.7 million, or $0.14 to $0.18 per diluted share, which excludes stock-based compensation expense and amortization of intangibles.
Full Year Expectations – Fiscal Year Ending April 30, 2010
For fiscal 2010, ArcSight expects revenue to be in the range of $174.2 million to $178.2 million and non-GAAP net income in the range of $18.7 million to $20.4 million, or $0.52 to $0.57 per diluted share, excluding the above-mentioned charges.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
ArcSight reports all financial information required in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). To supplement the ArcSight unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, ArcSight uses certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the results of ArcSight operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures used by ArcSight include historical non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude amortization of intangible assets and stock-based compensation from the ArcSight statement of operations.
For a description of these items, including the reasons why management adjusts for them, and reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, please see the section of the accompanying tables titled “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information” as well as the related tables that precede it. ArcSight may consider whether other significant non-recurring items that arise in the future should also be excluded in calculating the non-GAAP financial measures it uses.
ArcSight believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the performance of ArcSight by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the company’s core business, operating results or future outlook. ArcSight management uses, and believes that investors benefit from referring to, these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing operating results of ArcSight, as well as when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate comparisons of the performance of ArcSight to prior periods.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to the reasons stated above, which are generally applicable to each of the items ArcSight excludes from its non-GAAP financial measures, ArcSight believes it is appropriate to exclude certain items for the following reasons:
Amortization of Intangibles. When analyzing the operating performance of an acquired entity, ArcSight management focuses on the total return provided by the investment (i.e., operating profit generated from the acquired entity as compared to the purchase price paid) without taking into consideration any allocations made for accounting purposes. Because the purchase price for an acquisition necessarily reflects the accounting value assigned to intangible assets (including acquired in-process technology and goodwill), when analyzing the operating performance of an acquisition in subsequent periods, ArcSight management excludes the GAAP impact of the amortization of acquired intangible assets to its financial results. ArcSight believes that such an approach is useful in understanding the long-term return provided by an acquisition and that investors benefit from a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the accounting amortization expense associated with acquired intangible assets.
In addition, in accordance with GAAP, ArcSight generally recognizes expenses for internally-developed intangible assets as they are incurred until technological feasibility is reached, notwithstanding the potential future benefit such assets may provide. Unlike internally developed intangible assets, however, and also in accordance with GAAP, ArcSight generally capitalizes the cost of acquired intangible assets and recognizes that cost as an expense over the useful lives of the assets acquired (other than goodwill, which is not amortized, and acquired in-process technology, which is expensed immediately, as required under GAAP). As a result of their GAAP treatment, there is an inherent lack of comparability between the financial performance of internally developed intangible assets and acquired intangible assets. Accordingly, ArcSight believes it is useful to provide, as a supplement to its GAAP operating results, a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the amortization of acquired intangibles.
Stock-Based Compensation. When evaluating the performance of its consolidated results, ArcSight does not consider stock-based compensation charges. Likewise, the ArcSight management team excludes stock-based compensation expense from its operating plans. In contrast, the ArcSight management team is held accountable for cash-based compensation and such amounts are included in its operating plans. Further, when considering the impact of equity award grants, ArcSight places a greater emphasis on overall stockholder dilution rather than the accounting charges associated with such grants.
ArcSight believes it is useful to provide a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes stock-based compensation in order to better understand the long-term performance of its business.
