Concurrent Reports Second Quarter FY2017 Financial Results
Aquari® Storage Solution Gains New Customers;
Improved Operating Performance Leads to Sharply Reduced Net Loss
Conference Call Today at 11 A.M. ET
ATLANTA, Feb. 08, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Concurrent (CCUR), a global provider of high-performance Linux® and storage solutions, today announced financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 ended December 31, 2016.
Fiscal Second Quarter Financial Highlights:
Total revenue increased 19% sequentially and 4% year-over-year to $15.5 million.
- Content Delivery segment revenue (which includes revenue from the company`s Aquari storage solutions product line) increased 41% sequentially to $7.2 million. Content Delivery segment revenue decreased year over year due to a single large customer purchase that occurred in the prior fiscal year period.
- Real-Time segment revenue increased 4% sequentially to $8.3 million and grew 32% from the prior fiscal year period, driven by strength in the company`s Asia-Pacific markets.
Net loss was reduced to $(0.1) million, or $(0.01) per share, compared to a net loss of $(2.9) million, or $(0.32) per share, in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, and a net loss of $(0.3) million, or $(0.03) per share, in the prior fiscal year period.
Adjusted EBITDA improved to $0.7 million, compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $(2.2) million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, and Adjusted EBITDA of $0.3 million in the prior fiscal year period.
Cash and cash equivalents were $18.8 million as of December 31, 2016. Concurrent has no debt.
Quarterly dividend paid during the fiscal second quarter was $0.12 per share.
"We believe our second quarter results begin to illustrate Concurrent`s evolution as we continue to broaden our customer base and expand the addressable market for our Content Delivery products," said Derek Elder, President and CEO. "As we execute our plan to capitalize on the market opportunity, we should generate a more consistent sequential revenue trend as we move into fiscal 2018. In addition, we are positioned to grow our revenue as we bring cost-efficient media delivery and storage solutions, like our Aquari product line, to a broader market. Meanwhile, our Real-Time segment had an excellent quarter driven by strength in our Asia-Pacific markets and expanding footprint in Automotive."
"We introduced several operational efficiencies during the quarter that have led to improved profitability, and implemented additional steps after quarter end. We believe that these efficiency measures, combined with continued progress on the revenue front, will enable us to fund our investments to accelerate topline growth in fiscal 2018. Looking ahead, although we expect we will have a net loss for the remainder of fiscal 2017, we believe we will maintain positive Adjusted EBITDA over the period," Mr. Elder concluded.

Total revenue was $15.5 million, compared to $13.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, and $14.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2016.

Fiscal 2017 Guidance
Management reiterated its fiscal 2017 guidance, which is as follows:
Total revenue for the year is expected to be flat to slightly up from 2016 revenue of $61.1 million.
Although we expect to have a net loss for the remainder of fiscal 2017, Adjusted EBITDA is expected to remain positive.
Non-GAAP Financial Measurements
To supplement the company`s condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), this news release provides information concerning the company`s Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure. Reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found in tables immediately following the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
For purposes of this news release, Adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP net income, less interest income and other income (expense), net, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses, share-based compensation expense and gain on the sale of assets. The company considers Adjusted EBITDA important to understanding its historical results and identifying current and future trends impacting its business. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to compare the company`s performance to that of prior periods and evaluate the company`s financial and operating results on a consistent basis from period to period. The company also believes this measure, when viewed in combination with the company`s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, provides useful information to investors to evaluate ongoing operating results and trends. The adjustments to the company`s GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of the company`s underlying operational results, trends and performance. Additionally, adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of cash flow for management`s discretionary use. We believe that the inclusion of Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors because securities analysts, noteholders and other investors use these non-GAAP financial measures to assess our operating performance across periods on a consistent basis and to evaluate the relative risk of an investment in our securities.
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, however, including the following:
Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our tax expense or any cash requirements to pay income taxes; and
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operations, but may nonetheless have a material impact on our results of operations.
The presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for or superior to the company`s financial results determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the company`s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies, including other companies in our industry.
