CEO Commentary
"Verint is an actionable intelligence leader in two markets, Customer
Engagement and Cyber Intelligence. In Customer Engagement, we continue
to focus our strategy across four pillars: expanding our portfolio;
delivering advanced analytics; offering deployment flexibility; and,
growing our partner network. We are pleased with the progress we have
made year-to-date on our strategy, and expect our Customer Engagement
business to achieve mid-single digit non-GAAP revenue growth on a
constant currency basis for the year, and similar growth next fiscal
year," said Dan Bodner, Verint CEO and President.
"In Cyber Intelligence, we are pleased with our strong recent order
activity reflecting governments' need for sophisticated cyber
intelligence solutions to address pressing security threats. We expect
to finish the year with a strong fourth quarter and expect mid-to-high
single digit revenue growth on a constant currency basis next year in
Cyber Intelligence," Bodner continued.
"This is the first quarter we are reporting as two segments and we are
taking steps to provide our two businesses greater agility to extend
market leadership in their respective markets," concluded Bodner.
Financial Outlook
Below is Verint's non-GAAP outlook for the year ending January 31, 2017.
-
We expect total revenue to be $1.075 billion +/- 2.0% and diluted
earnings per share to be approximately $2.50 at the mid-point of our
revenue guidance.
Below is Verint's non-GAAP preliminary outlook for the year ending
January 31, 2018.
-
In Customer Engagement, we expect mid-single digit revenue growth on a
constant currency basis.
-
In Cyber Intelligence, we expect mid-to-high single digit revenue
growth on a constant currency basis.
-
Overall, we expect our earnings to grow slightly faster than revenue
with some operating margin improvement.
We are not providing a complete quantitative reconciliation of our
non-GAAP outlook to the corresponding GAAP information because the GAAP
measures that we exclude from our non-GAAP outlook are uncertain and
difficult to predict, and are therefore not available without
unreasonable effort. Moreover, because of these uncertainties, we are
only able to assess a range of the probable significance for some but
not all of these excluded GAAP measures.
Our non-GAAP outlook for the year ending January 31, 2017 excludes the
following GAAP measures which we are able to quantify with reasonable
certainty:
-
Amortization of intangible assets - approximately $80 million.
-
Amortization of discount on convertible notes - approximately $11
million.
Our non-GAAP outlook for the year ending January 31, 2017 excludes the
following GAAP measures for which we are able to provide a range of
probable significance:
-
Revenue adjustments related to completed acquisitions - for the nine
months ended October 31, 2016, revenue adjustments related to
completed acquisitions were approximately $7 million, and are expected
to be between approximately $7 million and $8 million for the year
ending January 31, 2017.
-
Stock-based compensation - for the nine months ended October 31, 2016,
stock-based compensation was approximately $46 million, and is
expected to be between approximately $60 million and $65 million for
the year ending January 31, 2017, assuming market prices for our
common stock approximately consistent with current levels.
Our non-GAAP outlook does not include the potential impact of any
in-process business acquisitions that may close after the date hereof,
and, unless otherwise specified, reflects foreign currency exchange
rates approximately consistent with current rates.
We are unable to assess the probable significance of other GAAP measures
which are excluded from our non-GAAP outlook, including the impact of
future business acquisitions or acquisition expenses, future
restructuring expenses, and non-GAAP tax adjustments due to the level of
unpredictability and uncertainty associated with these items. Actual
amounts for these measures for the three and nine months ended October
31, 2016 appear in Table 3 to this press release.
Conference Call Information
We will conduct a conference call today at 4:30 p.m. ET to discuss our
results for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2016 and outlook
for the year ending January 31, 2017. An online, real-time webcast of
the conference call will be available on our website at www.verint.com.

Cautions About Forward-Looking Statements This press release
contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding
expectations, predictions, views, opportunities, plans, strategies,
beliefs, and statements of similar effect relating to Verint Systems
Inc. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future
performance and they are based on management's expectations that involve
a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and
other important factors, any of which could cause our actual results or
conditions to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by
the forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that could cause our
actual results or conditions to differ materially from current
expectations include, among others: uncertainties regarding the impact
of general economic conditions in the United States and abroad,
particularly in information technology spending and government budgets,
on our business; risks associated with our ability to keep pace with
technological changes, evolving industry standards, and customer
challenges, such as the proliferation and strengthening of encryption
and the transition of portions of the software market to the cloud, to
adapt to changing market potential from area to area within our markets,
and to successfully develop, launch, and drive demand for new,
innovative, high-quality products that meet or exceed customer needs,
while simultaneously preserving our legacy businesses; risks due to
aggressive competition in all of our markets, including with respect to
maintaining margins and sufficient levels of investment in our business;
risks created by the continued consolidation of our competitors or the
introduction of large competitors in our markets with greater resources
than we have; risks associated with our ability to successfully compete
for, consummate, and implement mergers and acquisitions, including risks
associated with valuations, capital constraints, costs and expenses,
maintaining profitability levels, expansion into new areas, management
distraction, post-acquisition integration activities, and potential
asset impairments; risks relating to our ability to effectively and
efficiently enhance our existing operations and execute on our growth
strategy and profitability goals, including managing investments in our
business and operations, managing our cloud transition and our revenue
mix, and enhancing and securing our internal and external operations;
risks associated with our ability to effectively and efficiently
allocate limited financial and human resources to business,
developmental, strategic, or other opportunities, and risk that such
investments may not come to fruition or produce satisfactory returns;
risks that we may be unable to establish and maintain relationships with
key resellers, partners, and systems integrators; risks associated with
our reliance on third-party suppliers, partners, or original equipment
manufacturers ("OEMs") for certain components, products, or services,
including companies that may compete with us or work with our
competitors; risks associated with the mishandling or perceived
mishandling of sensitive or confidential information and with security
vulnerabilities or lapses, including information technology system
breaches, failures, or disruptions; risks that our products or services,
or those of third-party suppliers, partners, or OEMs which we
incorporate into our offerings or otherwise rely on, may contain defects
or may be vulnerable to cyber-attacks; risks associated with our
significant international operations, including, among others, in
Israel, Europe, and Asia, exposure to regions subject to political or
economic instability, and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates; risks
associated with a significant amount of our business coming from
domestic and foreign government customers, including the ability to
maintain security clearances for applicable projects; risks associated
with complex and changing local and foreign regulatory environments in
the jurisdictions in which we operate; risks associated with our ability
to retain and recruit qualified personnel in regions in which we
operate, including in new markets and growth areas we may enter;
challenges associated with selling sophisticated solutions, including
with respect to educating our customers on the benefits of our solutions
or assisting them in realizing such benefits; challenges associated with
pursuing larger sales opportunities, including with respect to longer
sales cycles, transaction reductions, deferrals, or cancellations during
the sales cycle, risk of customer concentration, our ability to
accurately forecast when a sales opportunity will convert to an order,
or to forecast revenue and expenses, and increased volatility of our
operating results from period to period; risks that our intellectual
property rights may not be adequate to protect our business or assets or
that others may make claims on our intellectual property or claim
infringement on their intellectual property rights; risks that our
customers or partners delay or cancel orders or are unable to honor
contractual commitments due to liquidity issues, challenges in their
business, or otherwise; risks that we may experience liquidity or
working capital issues and related risks that financing sources may be
unavailable to us on reasonable terms or at all; risks associated with
significant leverage resulting from our current debt position or our
ability to incur additional debt, including with respect to liquidity
considerations, covenant limitations and compliance, fluctuations in
interest rates, dilution considerations (with respect to our convertible
notes), and our ability to maintain our credit ratings; risks arising as
a result of contingent or other obligations or liabilities assumed in
our acquisition of our former parent company, Comverse Technology, Inc.
("CTI"), or associated with formerly being consolidated with, and part
of a consolidated tax group with, CTI, or as a result of CTI's former
subsidiary, Xura, Inc. (formerly, Comverse, Inc.), being unwilling or
unable to provide us with certain indemnities or transition services to
which we are entitled; risks relating to the adequacy of our existing
infrastructure, systems, processes, policies, procedures, and personnel
and our ability to successfully implement and maintain adequate systems
and internal controls for our current and future operations and
reporting needs, including related risks of financial statement
omissions, misstatements, restatements, or filing delays; and risks
associated with changing tax rates, tax laws and regulations, and the
continuing availability of expected tax benefits. We assume no
obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statement, except as
otherwise required by law. For a detailed discussion of these risk
factors, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
January 31, 2016, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter
ended October 31, 2016, when filed, and other filings we make with the

(1) Revenue for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2016 at
constant currency is calculated by translating current-period
foreign currency revenue into U.S. dollars using average foreign
currency exchange rates for the three and nine months ended October
31, 2015 rather than actual current-period foreign currency exchange
rates.

Verint Systems Inc. and Subsidiaries Supplemental
Information About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures, consisting of
non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP gross profit and gross margin, non-GAAP
operating income and operating margin, non-GAAP other income (expense),
net, non-GAAP provision (benefit) for income taxes and non-GAAP
effective income tax rate, non-GAAP net income attributable to Verint
Systems Inc., non-GAAP net income per common share attributable to
Verint Systems Inc., adjusted EBITDA, net debt, and constant currency
measures. Tables 2 and 3 include a reconciliation of each non-GAAP
financial measure for completed periods presented in this press release
to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
We believe these non-GAAP financial measures, used in conjunction with
the corresponding GAAP measures, provide investors with useful
supplemental information about the financial performance of our business
by:
-
facilitating the comparison of our financial results and business
trends between periods, including by excluding certain items that
either can vary significantly in amount and frequency, are based upon
subjective assumptions, or in certain cases are unplanned for or
difficult to forecast,
-
facilitating the comparison of our financial results and business
trends with other technology companies who publish similar non-GAAP
measures, and
-
allowing investors to see and understand key supplementary metrics
used by our management to run our business, including for budgeting
and forecasting, resource allocation, and compensation matters.
We also make these non-GAAP financial measures available because a
number of our investors have informed us that they find this
supplemental information useful.
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation as
substitutes for, or superior to, comparable GAAP financial measures. The
non-GAAP financial measures we present have limitations in that they do
not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations
as determined in accordance with GAAP, and these non-GAAP financial
measures should only be used to evaluate our results of operations in
conjunction with the corresponding GAAP financial measures. These
non-GAAP financial measures do not represent discretionary cash
available to us to invest in the growth of our business, and we may in
the future incur expenses similar to or in addition to the adjustments
made in these non-GAAP financial measures. Other companies may calculate
similar non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting
their usefulness as comparative measures.
Our non-GAAP financial measures are calculated by making the following
adjustments to our GAAP financial measures:
Revenue adjustments related to acquisitions. We exclude from our
non-GAAP revenue the impact of fair value adjustments required under
GAAP relating to acquired customer support contracts, which would have
otherwise been recognized on a stand-alone basis. We believe that it is
useful for investors to understand the total amount of revenue that we
and the acquired company would have recognized on a stand-alone basis
under GAAP, absent the accounting adjustment associated with the
business acquisition. Our non-GAAP revenue also reflects certain
adjustments from aligning an acquired company's revenue recognition
policies to our policies. We believe that our non-GAAP revenue measure
helps management and investors understand our revenue trends and serves
as a useful measure of ongoing business performance.
Amortization of acquired technology and other acquired intangible
assets. When we acquire an entity, we are required under GAAP to
record the fair values of the intangible assets of the acquired entity
and amortize those assets over their useful lives. We exclude the
amortization of acquired intangible assets, including acquired
technology, from our non-GAAP financial measures because they are
inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by
the timing and size of acquisitions. We also exclude these amounts to
provide easier comparability of pre- and post-acquisition operating
results.
Stock-based compensation expenses. We exclude stock-based
compensation expenses related to restricted stock awards, stock bonus
programs, bonus share programs, and other stock-based awards from our
non-GAAP financial measures. We evaluate our performance both with and
without these measures because stock-based compensation is typically a
non-cash expense and can vary significantly over time based on the
timing, size and nature of awards granted, and is influenced in part by
certain factors which are generally beyond our control, such as the
volatility of the price of our common stock. In addition, measurement of
stock-based compensation is subject to varying valuation methodologies
and subjective assumptions, and therefore we believe that excluding
stock-based compensation from our non-GAAP financial measures allows for
meaningful comparisons of our current operating results to our
historical operating results and to other companies in our industry.
Unrealized gains and losses on certain derivatives, net. We
exclude from our non-GAAP financial measures unrealized gains and losses
on certain foreign currency derivatives which are not designated as
hedges under accounting guidance. We exclude unrealized gains and losses
on foreign currency derivatives that serve as economic hedges against
variability in the cash flows of recognized assets or liabilities, or of
forecasted transactions. These contracts, if designated as hedges under
accounting guidance, would be considered "cash flow" hedges. These
unrealized gains and losses are excluded from our non-GAAP financial
measures because they are non-cash transactions which are highly
variable from period to period. Upon settlement of these foreign
currency derivatives, any realized gain or loss is included in our
non-GAAP financial measures.
Amortization of convertible note discount. Our non-GAAP financial
measures exclude the amortization of the imputed discount on our
convertible notes. Under GAAP, certain convertible debt instruments that
may be settled in cash upon conversion are required to be bifurcated
into separate liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components
in a manner that reflects the issuer's assumed non-convertible debt
borrowing rate. For GAAP purposes, we are required to recognize imputed
interest expense on the difference between our assumed non-convertible
debt borrowing rate and the coupon rate on our $400.0 million of 1.50%
convertible notes. This difference is excluded from our non-GAAP
financial measures because we believe that this expense is based upon
subjective assumptions and does not reflect the cash cost of our
convertible debt.
Acquisition Expenses, net. In connection with acquisition
activity (including with respect to acquisitions that are not
consummated), we incur expenses, including legal, accounting, and other
professional fees, integration costs, changes in the fair value of
contingent consideration obligations, and other costs. Integration costs
may consist of information technology expenses as systems are integrated
across the combined entity, consulting expenses, marketing expenses, and
professional fees, as well as non-cash charges to write-off or impair
the value of redundant assets. We exclude these expenses from our
non-GAAP financial measures because they are unpredictable, can vary
based on the size and complexity of each transaction, and are unrelated
to our continuing operations or to the continuing operations of the
acquired businesses.
Restructuring Expenses. We exclude restructuring expenses from
our non-GAAP financial measures, which include employee termination
costs, facility exit costs, certain professional fees, asset impairment
charges, and other costs directly associated with resource realignments
incurred in reaction to changing strategies or business conditions. All
of these costs can vary significantly in amount and frequency based on
the nature of the actions as well as the changing needs of our business
and we believe that excluding them provides easier comparability of pre-
and post-restructuring operating results.
Impairment Charges and Other Adjustments. We exclude from our
non-GAAP financial measures asset impairment charges other than those
associated with restructuring or acquisition activity, rent expense for
redundant facilities, and gains or losses on sales of property, all of
which are unusual in nature and can vary significantly in amount and
frequency.
Non-GAAP income tax adjustments. We exclude our GAAP provision
(benefit) for income taxes from our non-GAAP measures of net income
attributable to Verint Systems Inc., and instead include a non-GAAP
provision for income taxes, determined by applying a non-GAAP effective
income tax rate to our income before provision for income taxes, as
adjusted for the non-GAAP items described above. The non-GAAP effective
income tax rate is generally based upon the income taxes we expect to
pay in the reporting year. We adjust our non-GAAP effective income tax
rate to exclude current-year tax payments or refunds associated with
prior-year income tax returns and related amendments which were
significantly delayed as a result of our previous extended filing delay.
Our GAAP effective income tax rate can vary significantly from year to
year as a result of tax law changes, settlements with tax authorities,
changes in the geographic mix of earnings including acquisition
activity, changes in the projected realizability of deferred tax assets,
and other unusual or period-specific events, all of which can vary in
size and frequency. We believe that our non-GAAP effective income tax
rate removes much of this variability and facilitates
meaningful comparisons of operating results across periods. Our non-GAAP
effective income tax rate for the year ending January 31, 2017 is
currently approximately 9%, and was 8.1% for the year ended January 31,
2016. We evaluate our non-GAAP effective income tax rate on an ongoing
basis and it can change from time to time. Our non-GAAP income tax rate
can differ materially from our GAAP effective income tax rate.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure defined as net income (loss)
before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation
expense, amortization expense, revenue adjustments related to
acquisitions, restructuring expenses, acquisition expenses, and other
expenses excluded from our non-GAAP financial measures as described
above. We believe that adjusted EBITDA is also commonly used by
investors to evaluate operating performance between competitors because
it helps reduce variability caused by differences in capital structures,
income taxes, stock-based compensation accounting policies, and
depreciation and amortization policies. Adjusted EBITDA is also used by
credit rating agencies, lenders, and other parties to evaluate our
creditworthiness.
Net Debt
Net Debt is a non-GAAP measure defined as the sum of long-term and
short-term debt on our consolidated balance sheet, excluding unamortized
discounts and issuance costs, less the sum of cash and cash equivalents,
restricted cash and bank time deposits, and short-term investments. We
use this non-GAAP financial measure to help evaluate our capital
structure, financial leverage, and our ability to reduce debt and to
fund investing and financing activities, and believe that it provides
useful information to investors.
Supplemental Information About Constant Currency
Because we operate on a global basis and transact business in many
currencies, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates can affect
our consolidated U.S. dollar operating results. To facilitate the
assessment of our performance excluding the effect of foreign currency
exchange rate fluctuations, we calculate our GAAP and non-GAAP revenue,
cost of revenue, and operating expenses on both an as-reported basis and
a constant currency basis, allowing for comparison of results between
periods as if foreign currency exchange rates had remained constant. We
perform our constant currency calculations by translating current-period
foreign currency results into U.S. dollars using prior-period average
foreign currency exchange rates or hedge rates, as applicable, rather
than current period exchange rates. We believe that constant currency
measures, which exclude the impact of changes in foreign currency
exchange rates, facilitate the assessment of underlying business trends.
Unless otherwise indicated, our financial outlook for revenue, operating
margin, and diluted earnings per share, which is provided on a non-GAAP
basis, reflects foreign currency exchange rates approximately consistent
with rates in effect when the outlook is provided.
We also incur foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the
revaluation and settlement of monetary assets and liabilities that are
denominated in currencies other than the entity's functional currency.
We periodically report our historical non-GAAP diluted net income per
share both inclusive and exclusive of these net foreign exchange gains
or losses. Our financial outlook for diluted earnings per share includes
net foreign exchange gains or losses incurred to date, if any, but does
not include potential future gains or losses.
