Our strong financial performance can be traced directly to our continuing commitment to customer retention and to managing our business efficiently and profitably. Over the past nine months, our new management team has made excellent strides in executing on our business strategy, which we believe will create even greater value for all shareholders.”
Paul Jalbert, CFO at Progress, said: “Our Q3 and year-to-date results have enabled us to again increase our full-year estimates for revenue, operating margin, earnings per share and adjusted free cash flow. Going forward, we will continue to manage our business efficiently, strengthening and optimizing our core business. Through our recently increased dividend and share repurchase authorization, we have also enhanced our capital allocation strategy to return more operating cash flow to shareholders.”

Other fiscal third quarter 2017 metrics and recent results included:
| • | Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $191.3 million at the end of the quarter; |
| • | DSO was 48 days, compared to 49 days in the fiscal third quarter of 2016 and 42 days in the fiscal second quarter of 2017; |
| • | Progress repurchased 0.6 million shares for $19.0 million during the fiscal third quarter of 2017; and |
| • | On September 6, 2017, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.14 per share of common stock that will be paid on December 15, 2017 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 1, 2017. This represents an increase of 12% to our quarterly dividend. |
Share Repurchase Program
Progress also announced today that its Board of Directors has increased the total share repurchase authorization from the $91 million remaining on the previous authorization to $250 million. Progress' intent is to utilize $150 million of this authorization by the end of fiscal year 2018, and the total amount by the end of fiscal year 2019.
Business Outlook
Progress provides the following updated guidance for the fiscal year ending November 30, 2017 and the fourth fiscal quarter ending November 30, 2017:
| (In millions, except percentages and per share amounts) | FY 2017 GAAP | FY 2017 Non-GAAP | Q4 2017 GAAP | Q4 2017 Non-GAAP | ||||
| Revenue | $393 - $396 | $394 - $397 | $112 - $115 | $112 - $115 | ||||
| Diluted earnings per share | $0.74 - $0.78 | $1.82 - $1.85 | $0.33 - $0.36 | $0.58 - $0.61 | ||||
| Operating margin | 18% | 35% | * | * | ||||
| Operating cash flows / adjusted free cash flow | $89 - $94 | $105 - $110 | * | * | ||||
| Effective tax rate | 44 | % | 33% - 34% | * | * | |||
*We do not provide guidance for this financial measure.
Progress' fiscal 2017 financial guidance is based on current exchange rates. The positive currency translation impact on Progress' fiscal year 2017 business outlook compared to 2016 exchange rates is approximately $1.0 million on non-GAAP revenue. The currency translation impact on the fiscal 2017 non-GAAP earnings per share guidance is not meaningful. The positive currency translation impact on Progress' fiscal Q4 2017 business outlook compared to 2016 exchange rates on non-GAAP revenue and non-GAAP earnings per share is approximately $2.0 million to $3.0 million and $0.01, respectively. To the extent that there are further changes in exchange rates versus the current environment, this may have an additional impact on Progress' business outlook.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
Progress provides non-GAAP supplemental information to its financial results.
We use this non-GAAP information to evaluate our period-over-period operating performance because our management believes the information helps illustrate underlying trends in our business and provides us with a more comparable measure of our continuing business, as well as a greater understanding of the results from the primary operations of our business, by excluding the effects of certain items that do not reflect the ordinary earnings of our operations. Management also uses this
2
non-GAAP financial information to establish budgets and operational goals, which are communicated internally and externally, evaluate performance, and allocate resources. In addition, compensation of our executives and non-executive employees is based in part on the performance of our business evaluated using this same non-GAAP information.
However, this non-GAAP information is not in accordance with, or an alternative to, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and should be considered in conjunction with our GAAP results as the items excluded from the non-GAAP information often have a material impact on Progress’ financial results. A reconciliation of non-GAAP adjustments to Progress' GAAP financial results is included in the tables below and is available on the Progress website at www.progress.com within the investor relations section.
As described in more detail below, non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP costs of sales and operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations and operating margin, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share exclude the effect of purchase accounting on the fair value of acquired deferred revenue, amortization of acquired intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring charges, acquisition-related expenses, certain identified non-operating gains and losses, and the related tax effects of the preceding items. We also provide guidance on adjusted free cash flow, which is equal to cash flows from operating activities less purchases of property and equipment and capitalized software development costs, plus restructuring payments.
In the noted fiscal periods, we adjusted for the following items from our GAAP financial results to arrive at our non-GAAP financial measures:
| • | Acquisition-related revenue - In all periods presented, we include acquisition-related revenue, which constitutes revenue reflected as pre-acquisition deferred revenue that would otherwise have been recognized but for the purchase accounting treatment of acquisitions. The acquisition-related revenue relates to Telerik, which we acquired on December 2, 2014, and Kinvey, which we acquired on June 1, 2017. Since GAAP accounting requires the elimination of this revenue, GAAP results alone do not fully capture all of our economic activities. We believe these adjustments are useful to management and investors as a measure of the ongoing performance of the business because, although we cannot be certain that customers will renew their contracts, we have historically experienced high renewal rates on maintenance and support agreements and other customer contracts. Additionally, although acquisition-related revenue adjustments are non-recurring with respect to past acquisitions, we expect to incur these adjustments in connection with any future acquisitions. |
| • | Amortization of acquired intangibles - In all periods presented, we exclude amortization of acquired intangibles because those expenses are unrelated to our core operating performance and the intangible assets acquired vary significantly based on the timing and magnitude of our acquisition transactions and the maturities of the businesses acquired. |
| • | Impairment of acquired intangibles - In the third quarter of fiscal year 2016, we exclude an impairment charge applicable to acquired intangible assets because such expense distorts trends and is not part of our core operating results. Such impairment charges are inconsistent in amount and frequency and we believe that eliminating these amounts, when significant and not reflective of ongoing business and operating results, facilitates a more meaningful evaluation of our current operating performance and comparisons to our operating performance in other periods. |
| • | Stock-based compensation - In all periods presented, we exclude stock-based compensation to be consistent with the way management and the financial community evaluates our performance and the methods used by analysts to calculate consensus estimates. The expense related to stock-based awards is generally not controllable in the short-term and can vary significantly based on the timing, size and nature of awards granted. As such, we do not include these charges in operating plans. Stock-based compensation will continue in future periods. |
| • | Restructuring expenses - In all periods presented, we exclude restructuring expenses incurred because those expenses distort trends and are not part of our core operating results. |
| • | Acquisition-related and transition expenses - In all periods presented, we exclude acquisition-related expenses because those expenses distort trends and are not part of our core operating results. In recent years, we have completed a number of acquisitions, which result in our incurring operating expenses which would not otherwise have been incurred. By excluding certain transition, integration and other acquisition-related expense items in connection with acquisitions, this provides more meaningful comparisons of the financial results to our historical operations and |
3
forward looking guidance and the financial results of less acquisitive peer companies. We consider these types of costs and adjustments, to a great extent, to be unpredictable and dependent on a significant number of factors that are outside of our control. Furthermore, we do not consider these acquisition-related costs and adjustments to be related to the organic continuing operations of the acquired businesses and are generally not relevant to assessing or estimating the long-term performance of the acquired assets. In addition, the size, complexity and/or volume of past acquisitions, which often drives the magnitude of acquisition related costs, may not be indicative of the size, complexity and/or volume of future acquisitions.
| • | Income tax adjustment - In all periods presented, we adjust our income tax provision by excluding the tax impact of the non-GAAP adjustments discussed above. |
Constant Currency
Revenue from our international operations has historically represented a substantial portion of our total revenue. As a result, our revenue results have been impacted, and we expect will continue to be impacted, by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. For example, if the local currencies of our foreign subsidiaries strengthen, our consolidated results stated in U.S. dollars are positively impacted.
As exchange rates are an important factor in understanding period to period comparisons, we present revenue growth rates on a constant currency basis, which helps improve the understanding of our revenue results and our performance in comparison to prior periods. The constant currency information presented is calculated by translating current period results using prior period weighted average foreign currency exchange rates. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with GAAP.
Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
