Interactive Intelligence Reports 2008 Second Quarter Results

INDIANAPOLIS --(Business Wire)-- Interactive Intelligence Inc. (Nasdaq: ININ), a global developer of unified IP business communications solutions, announced results for the quarter and six-month period ended June 30, 2008.

The company reported record 2008 second quarter revenues of $30.6 million, a 13 percent increase from $27.1 million in the same quarter last year.

Operating income for the 2008 second quarter was $1.3 million, compared to $2.2 million in the 2007 second quarter. Non-GAAP (non-generally accepted accounting principles) operating income was $2.2 million, compared to $3.0 million in the second quarter of 2007. Non-GAAP operating income excludes charges for stock-based compensation for the second quarter of $944,000 in 2008 and $806,000 in 2007.



Net income in the 2008 second quarter was $845,000, with diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.04, compared to $2.4 million and $0.12, respectively, in the 2007 second quarter. Net income includes fully taxed earnings in 2008. Non-GAAP net income was $2.4 million with EPS of $0.13, compared to $3.2 million and $0.17, respectively, in the 2007 second quarter. Non-GAAP net income excludes charges for stock-based compensation and non-cash tax expense.

"We received an increased number of orders in the second quarter and we were pleased with the number of new customers licensing our solutions," said Interactive Intelligence founder and CEO, Dr. Donald E. Brown. "However, we did see a lower dollar amount of orders from existing customers, which we attribute to the current economic slowdown. While we see no change in our long-term market opportunity or in the competitive advantages our solutions offer, we are responding to this tougher sales environment by adjusting our previously planned operating expenses until general market conditions improve."



For the six months ended June 30, 2008, revenues were a record $60.1 million, a 17 percent increase from $51.4 million in the same period in 2007.

Operating income for the first half of 2008 was $2.7 million, compared to $3.6 million for the first half of 2007. For the first half of 2008, non-GAAP operating income was $4.6 million, compared to $5.1 million in the first half of 2007. Non-GAAP operating income excludes charges for stock-based compensation of $1.9 million in 2008 and $1.5 million in 2007.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $2.0 million, with EPS of $0.10, compared to $4.1 million and $0.22, respectively, in the first half of 2007. Net income includes fully taxed earnings in 2008. Non-GAAP net income was $5.3 million with EPS of $0.28, compared to $5.6 million and $0.29, respectively, in the first half of 2007. Non-GAAP net income excludes charges for stock-based compensation and non-cash tax expense.

Cash and short-term investments as of June 30, 2008 totaled $49.7 million, up from $46.3 million on Dec. 31, 2007. Cash flow from operations for the first six months of 2008 was $6.8 million, compared to $6.9 million in the first half of 2007.

Board Approves Share Repurchase Program

Today, Interactive Intelligence's board of directors approved a share repurchase program for its common stock under which the company may purchase up to a maximum aggregate purchase price of $10 million from time to time over the next year. The purchases under this program may be made in the open market and in privately negotiated transactions. The number of shares to be purchased and the timing of purchases under the program will be based on both business and market conditions. Any repurchases will be made using the company's cash resources, and the program may be amended, suspended or discontinued at any time. Interactive Intelligence does not intend to publicly announce any suspension of the program. Any shares acquired will be available for stock-based compensation awards and other corporate purposes. The program authorizes, but does not commit, the company to repurchase shares of its common stock.

"With our share repurchase program announced today, we reaffirm our confidence in the long-term future of the company," Brown said. "Our balance sheet and liquidity are strong and the value of our products is being recognized by the market. We believe that we can invest in the growth initiatives that are key to our future success and take this step to enhance returns."

The non-GAAP measures shown in this release exclude non-cash stock-based compensation expense for stock options and non-cash income tax expense. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included after the financial information included in this press release. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Management believes that the presentation of non-GAAP results, when shown in conjunction with corresponding GAAP measures, provides useful information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends related to the company's results of operations. Further, management believes that these non-GAAP measures improve management's and investors' ability to compare the company's financial performance with historical periods because certain historical periods excluded stock-based compensation expense for stock options (prior to 2007) and income tax expense and benefits have varied significantly and are primarily non-cash. Interactive Intelligence's management uses these non-GAAP results to compare its performance to its peers in the software industry. Because stock-based compensation expense and non-cash income tax expense amounts can vary significantly between companies, it is useful to compare results excluding these amounts. Management also uses financial statements that exclude stock-based compensation expense related to stock options and non-cash income tax amounts for its internal budgets.

This release contains certain forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the following: rapid technological changes in the industry; the company's ability to maintain profitability; to manage successfully its growth and increasingly complex third-party relationships; to maintain successful relationships with its current and any new partners; to maintain and improve its current products; to develop new products; to protect its proprietary rights adequately; and other factors described in the company's SEC filings, including the company's latest annual report on Form 10-K.
