"More and more customers are leveraging storage virtualization to re-architect their data centers in order to gain efficiency, flexibility and cost savings, and NetApp provides the most compelling value proposition in the industry for both private and public cloud deployments," said Tom Georgens, president and CEO. "Our success is evident in our results, as NetApp won a record number of new customers, significantly increased our units shipped -- including a record number of high-end systems, and saw solid revenue growth across almost all geographies in our third quarter."
Outlook
- NetApp estimates revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 to be in the range of $1.645 billion to $1.725 billion, which equates to approximately 5% to 10% sequential revenue growth and approximately 15% to 21% year-over-year revenue growth.
- NetApp estimates that fourth quarter fiscal year 2012 GAAP earnings per share will be approximately $0.38 to $0.43 per share. NetApp estimates that fourth quarter fiscal year 2012 non-GAAP earnings per share will be approximately $0.60 to $0.65 per share.
- NetApp estimates that share count for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 will increase to approximately 378 million shares, including an estimated 8 million shares from the Company's outstanding convertible notes(3). Share count does not include the Company's outstanding note hedges which are expected to offset 80% of the dilution from the convertible notes at maturity or conversion.

NetApp Usage of Non-GAAP Financials
The Company refers to the non-GAAP financial measures cited above in making operating decisions because they provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company's ongoing operational performance. Non-GAAP net income excludes the amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, acquisition-related income and expenses, restructuring and other charges, asset impairments, non-cash interest expense associated with our convertible debt, net losses or gains on investments, and our GAAP tax provision, but includes a non-GAAP tax provision based upon our projected annual non-GAAP effective tax rate for the first three quarters of the fiscal year and an actual non-GAAP tax provision for the fourth quarter of the fiscal year. We have excluded these items in order to enhance investors' understanding of our ongoing operations. The use of these non-GAAP financial measures has material limitations because they should not be used to evaluate our Company without reference to their corresponding GAAP financial measures. As such, we compensate for these material limitations by using these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with GAAP financial measures.
These non-GAAP financial measures are used to: (1) measure Company performance against historical results, (2) facilitate comparisons to our competitors' operating results, and (3) allow greater transparency with respect to information used by management in financial and operational decision making. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are used to measure Company performance for the purposes of determining employee incentive plan compensation. We have historically reported similar non-GAAP financial measures to our investors and believe that the inclusion of comparative numbers provides consistency in our financial reporting at this time.
