MicroStrategy Announces Third Quarter 2013 Financial Results

TYSONS CORNER, Va., Oct. 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ — MicroStrategy(R) Incorporated (Nasdaq: MSTR), a leading worldwide provider of enterprise software platforms, today announced financial results for the three-month period ended September 30, 2013 (the third quarter of its 2013 fiscal year).

Third quarter 2013 revenues were $141.9 million versus $136.1 million for the third quarter of 2012, a 4% increase. Product licenses revenues for the third quarter of 2013 were $33.8 million versus $31.7 million for the third quarter of 2012, a 6% increase. Product support and other services revenues for the third quarter of 2013 were $108.2 million versus $104.3 million for the third quarter of 2012, a 4% increase.

Operating expenses for the third quarter of 2013 were $97.0 million versus $93.9 million for the third quarter of 2012, a 3% increase.

Income from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2013 was $11.6 million, as compared to income from continuing operations of $7.3 million for the third quarter of 2012, a 59% increase. Net income for the third quarter of 2013 was $17.1 million, or $1.52 per share on a diluted basis, as compared to net income of $4.8 million, or $0.43 per share on a diluted basis, for the third quarter of 2012.

Non-GAAP income from continuing operations, which excludes share-based compensation expense, was $12.1 million for the third quarter of 2013, as compared to non-GAAP income from continuing operations of $7.3 million for the third quarter of 2012, a 65% increase.

For the third quarter of 2013, MicroStrategy’s effective tax rate was a benefit of 102%, as compared to a provision of 29% for the third quarter of 2012. MicroStrategy recorded a benefit from income taxes for the third quarter of 2013 in the amount of $8.7 million, as compared to a provision from income taxes in the amount of $2.1 million for the third quarter of 2012. The changes in the effective tax rate and income taxes for the third quarter of 2013, as compared to the third quarter of 2012, were primarily due to a $12.7 million release of liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits as the statute of limitations with respect to certain previously filed tax returns expired in the third quarter of 2013.

As of September 30, 2013, MicroStrategy had cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, excluding those held-for-sale, of $343.9 million versus $223.1 million as of December 31, 2012, an increase of $120.9 million. As of September 30, 2013, MicroStrategy had 9.1 million shares of class A common stock and 2.2 million shares of class B common stock outstanding.

The table at the end of this press release includes a reconciliation of income from continuing operations to non-GAAP income from continuing operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. An explanation of this measure is also included under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measure.”

MicroStrategy Announces the New MicroStrategy Analytics Platform(TM)

This month, MicroStrategy unveiled its new MicroStrategy Analytics Platform, a comprehensive family of powerful, easy-to-use analytics solutions. The MicroStrategy Analytics Platform is MicroStrategy’s most important new software release in years and is the culmination of over two decades of innovation in analytics and business intelligence. It includes three distinct products:

 -- MicroStrategy Analytics Enterprise(TM) (Enterprise-grade business 
 intelligence) 
 
 -- MicroStrategy Analytics Desktop(TM) (Free self-service visual analytics 
 tool) 
 
 -- MicroStrategy Analytics Express(TM) (Free Cloud-based self-service visual 
 analytics) 

Together, these products support a full spectrum of business needs with maximum flexibility and affordability, running at individual, team, departmental, or enterprise-scale, can be delivered as a desktop application, on the web or mobile devices, support high performance analytics on gigabytes, terabytes, or petabytes of data, and can be deployed on-premises or up to 100x more quickly in the MicroStrategy Cloud(TM). The three MicroStrategy Analytics Platform products also share a common user experience — making it easy to start small with self-service analytics and grow into the production-grade features of Enterprise.

“We are thrilled to introduce our powerful, new Desktop product, which we have made easy to download and freely available to all users at www.microstrategy.com,” said Paul Zolfaghari, President, MicroStrategy Incorporated. “With the addition of Desktop and other product enhancements, we now offer a complete analytics platform for the enterprise as well as for the departmental, self-service user. We believe that we have transformed the self-service analytics market with our new on-the-fly data blending technology, free out-of-the-box map analytics for all MicroStrategy customers, supercharged in-memory analytics to support 10x more data than previously, and industry-leading performance, with improvements in both speed and throughput in Big Data analytics.”

MicroStrategy Launches MicroStrategy Analytics Desktop(TM)

As part of the new MicroStrategy Analytics Platform, MicroStrategy launched MicroStrategy Analytics Desktop, the company’s new desktop-based product for self-service data visualization. The product is freely available and can be downloaded at http://www.microstrategy.com/free/desktop. MicroStrategy Analytics Desktop is a fast, powerful, easy-to-use product that will enable business end users to gain deep insight into their own data. With MicroStrategy Analytics Desktop, it takes just minutes for an end user to gain valuable insight into their data by creating stunning, useful visualizations without the need of an IT department. After a simple download and installation process that can be completed in less than five minutes, an end user can:

 -- Access Data. Users can quickly connect to data from any source. Users 
 can pull data from Excel files, relational databases, multi-dimensional 
 databases, cloud-based applications and even Hadoop -- all without 
 writing a single line of scripting or SQL code. And, unlike pricey data 
 visualization solutions that charge even more to access data from 
 databases, with MicroStrategy Analytics Desktop, it is all included for 
 free. 
 
 -- Visualize. Business users can quickly illuminate the story in their data 
 by creating beautiful, impactful data visualizations. With just a few 
 clicks, these brilliant visualizations -- from basic pie graphs to 
 advanced matrices, networks and maps -- bring the underlying data to 
 life. MicroStrategy Analytics Desktop is powered by MicroStrategy"s 
 lightning-fast in-memory database technology -- the same technology 
 behind some of the world"s largest business intelligence implementations, 
 but in a package now easily accessible to everyone. 
 
 -- Build Dashboards. Building dashboards has never been faster or easier. 
 Users simply drag-and-drop to arrange multiple visualizations in a 
 dashboard to convey a story. Users can also blend/combine data from 
 different sources to create new metrics and data views. No IT needed. 
 
 -- Share. Users can share insights by exporting and sending their dashboard 
 as an image, a PDF file, or a full MicroStrategy Analytics Desktop file. 
 It has never been easier to creatively share and experience visual 
 insight from data. 

“MicroStrategy Analytics Desktop represents an extraordinary advance in analytics and BI because it allows users to connect to data, create compelling visualizations, and share those insights within minutes, all without IT assistance,” said Paul Zolfaghari, President, MicroStrategy Incorporated. “We designed it to be easy to download and install, so that anyone could get more from their data in minutes. We also made it fast and easy to use, with MicroStrategy performance and power — so you can analyze billions of rows of data on your desktop. It is faster than ever and stunningly effective.”

MicroStrategy Positioned in the “Challengers” Quadrant of the 2013 Magic Quadrant for Mobile Application Development Platforms

In August 2013, MicroStrategy announced that it debuted in the “Challengers” quadrant in Gartner’s 2013 “Magic Quadrant for Mobile Application Development Platforms” (MADP) report. The evaluation was based on the completeness of MicroStrategy’s vision and ability to execute.

“We are extremely pleased that our MicroStrategy Mobile App platform has been placed in the Gartner Magic Quadrant,” said Paul Zolfaghari, President, MicroStrategy Incorporated. “MicroStrategy has invested heavily in mobile platform technology designed to help our customers take advantage of what the company and our founder, Michael Saylor, see as the coming ‘Mobile Wave’.”

For six consecutive years, Gartner has positioned MicroStrategy’s Analytics Platform in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Business Intelligence. “MicroStrategy Mobile is now independently recognized for the value it offers customers searching specifically for a mobile app platform,” added Zolfaghari. “MicroStrategy Mobile brings to life analytics, transactions, workflows, and multimedia in platform-built custom native apps for tablets and smartphones. As a result, we have seen hundreds of our customers use our mobile platform to build apps that reach beyond BI and include enterprise workflow and transactional processing.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measure

MicroStrategy is providing a supplemental financial measure for income from continuing operations that excludes the impact of share-based compensation arrangements. This financial measure is not a measurement of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and, as a result, this financial measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure internally to help understand, manage, and evaluate business performance and to help make operating decisions. MicroStrategy believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is also useful to investors and analysts in comparing its performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis because it excludes a significant non-cash expense that the Company believes is not reflective of its general business performance. In addition, accounting for share-based compensation arrangements requires significant management judgment and the resulting expense could vary significantly in comparison to other companies. Therefore, MicroStrategy believes the use of this non-GAAP financial measure can also facilitate comparison of the Company’s operating results to those of its competitors.
