REDWOOD CITY, CALIF. -- October 24, 2007 -- BroadVision, Inc. (OTCBB: BVSN), a global provider of e-business solutions, today reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2007. Revenues for the third quarter were $12.8 million, compared with revenues of $13.3 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2007 and $13.6 million for the comparable quarter of 2006.
License revenue for the third quarter was $5.3 million versus $5.5 million in the prior quarter and $4.8 million in the comparable quarter of 2006. The majority of the third quarter license revenue was generated from the company's core Commerce and Portal solutions from customers including Siemens, DSG Retail, Epson, Alstom and several other brand name global customers.
In the third quarter of 2007, BroadVision posted net income on a U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") basis of $5.5 million, or $0.05 per basic and diluted share, as compared with GAAP net income of $8.4 million, or $0.08 per share, for the second quarter of 2007 and GAAP net income of $5.4 million, or $0.08 per basic and diluted share, for the third quarter of 2006.
Pro forma net income for the third quarter of 2007 was $6.7 million, or $0.06 per basic and diluted share, compared with a pro forma net income of $5.9 million, or $0.06 per basic share and $0.05 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2007 and a pro forma net income of $4.0 million, or $0.06 per basic and diluted share, in the third quarter of 2006. These pro forma results exclude restructuring charges, stock compensation expense under SFAS 123R, and revaluation of warrant liabilities. A reconciliation of these pro-forma figures to GAAP net income figures is included in a table on the attached financial statements. The Company believes its pro forma results provide useful information because they reflect the Company's financial performance excluding certain charges, credits, gains and losses that the Company believes are not indicative of its ongoing operations.
As of September 30, 2007, the company had a cash balance of $50.7 million, representing a $4.5 million, or 10%, increase over the June 30, 2007 balance of $46.2 million and a 37% increase from the year's starting cash position of $37.0 million, due primarily to positive cash flow generated from operations.
The Company formally released BroadVision 8.1TM on time at the end of the third quarter, a major milestone in completing the Company's new K2 (Kona * Kukini)TM e-business solution sets. The official launch of BroadVision 8.1TM is scheduled for November 8, 2007 during BVUG'2007 (BroadVision User Group Conference 2007). Furthermore, the Company successfully launched BroadVision OnDemand, Inc. (BVOD) and its flagship CHRMTM on-demand offering on August 2, 2007 at Beijing for the China market. BVOD plans to launch CHRMTM in other major world markets in early first quarter 2008.
