Lawson Software Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2008 Financial Results
Total revenues increase 18 percent year-over-year
ST. PAUL, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 7, 2008--Regulatory News:
Lawson Software, Inc. (Nasdaq: LWSN) today reported financial
results for its second quarter of fiscal year 2008, which ended Nov.
30, 2007. Lawson reported GAAP (generally accepted accounting
principles) revenues for the quarter of $218.6 million, up 18 percent
from revenues of $184.5 million in its fiscal 2007 second quarter. The
company reported double-digit increases in all lines of revenues:
license fee revenues increased 50 percent to $33 million, maintenance
revenues rose 19 percent to $84.7 million, and consulting revenues
rose 10 percent to $100.9 million.
Second quarter GAAP net income was $3.7 million, or $0.02 per
diluted share, compared with a net loss of $3.5 million, or $0.02 per
share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2007. The year-over-year
improvement in net income was primarily attributable to growth in
software license and maintenance revenue. These revenue gains were
offset by a non-operating permanent impairment charge of $4.2 million
recorded in other income to reduce the fair value of auction-rate
securities held by the company, which is further described below. This
impairment charge impacted net earnings by $0.02 per diluted share.
The company estimates currency fluctuations also had a negative impact
of $0.01 on net earnings per share. Refer to Table 1 attached to this
release for a summary of the impact of currency fluctuation to
Lawson's year-over-year performance.
Included in the reported GAAP net income and earnings per share
results are pre-tax expenses totaling $7.7 million for amortization of
acquired intangible assets, amortization of purchased maintenance
contracts, purchase accounting impact on consulting costs and
restructuring charges, the $4.2 million permanent impairment charge
for auction rate securities and $2.2 million of non-cash stock-based
compensation. Excluding these expenses and including $0.4 million of
maintenance and services revenue impacted by purchase accounting
adjustments made to the opening deferred revenue balances acquired
from the former Intentia International AB, non-GAAP net income for the
second quarter of fiscal 2008 was $15.6 million, or $0.09 per diluted
share."Our second quarter results show that business was strong in all
regions and verticals," said Harry Debes, Lawson president and CEO."While there is always more to be done, we are making excellent
progress in our business and that is reflected in our year-over-year
growth in revenues and earnings."
Six-Months Ended Nov. 30, 2007
GAAP revenues for the six months ended Nov. 30, 2007 were $406
million, up 17 percent from revenues of $346.3 million during the same
fiscal 2007 period. GAAP net income was $9.3 million, or $0.05 per
diluted share, improving from a net loss of $19.3 million, or $0.10
per share. The company estimates currency fluctuations had a negative
impact of $0.02 on net earnings per diluted share for the six-month
period.
Included in the reported six-month GAAP results are pre-tax
expenses of $19.4 million for amortization of acquired intangible
assets, permanent impairment charge for auction rate securities,
amortization of purchased maintenance contracts, purchase accounting
impact on consulting costs and restructuring charges, and $4.3 million
of non-cash stock-based compensation. Excluding these expenses and
including $1 million of maintenance and services revenue impacted by
purchase accounting adjustments made to the opening deferred revenuebalances acquired from the former Intentia International AB, non-GAAP
net income for the six months ended Nov. 30, 2007, was $28.3 million,
or $0.15 per diluted share.
Financial Guidance
For the third quarter of fiscal year 2008, which ends Feb. 29,
2008, the company estimates total revenues of $216 million to $220
million, which includes license fee growth of approximately 20 percent
over the previous year's comparable period. The company anticipates
GAAP fully diluted earnings per share will be $0.03 to $0.04,
exclusive of further impairments in auction rate securities. Non-GAAP
fully diluted earnings per share are forecasted to be between $0.07
and $0.08, excluding approximately $9.5 million of pre-tax expenses
related to the amortization of acquisition-related intangibles,
amortization of purchased maintenance contracts and stock-based
compensation charges. The non-GAAP effective tax rate for fiscal 2008
is anticipated to be in the range of 37 percent and 40 percent.
Second Quarter Fiscal 2008 Key Metrics
-- Cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and long-term
investments at quarter-end were $424.1 million (excluding $7.5
million of restricted cash,) compared to the Aug. 31, 2007,
balance of $483.1 million (excluding $7 million of restricted
cash).
-- Total deferred revenues were $176.5 million, including $36.1
million of deferred license revenues, compared to the Aug. 31,
2007, balance of $236.3 million, including $35.3 million of
deferred license revenue. Total deferred revenues declined
because of lower deferred maintenance revenue resulting from
the company's renewal dates now occurring in the third and
fourth quarters.
-- Total software license deal activity increased to 331 closed
deals, compared to 307 deals in the second quarter of fiscal
2007. Average selling price of all deals closed remained
relatively constant year-over-year.
-- Thirty-eight new customer deals were signed, compared with 27
in the second quarter a year ago. Average selling price of new
customer deals was $373,000, compared to $420,000 a year ago.
This trend is expected considering the smaller average deal
sizes for M3 sales outside of the Americas.
-- Two deals greater than $1 million and eight deals between
$500,000 and $1 million were signed, compared to three deals
greater than $1 million and 13 deals in the $500,000 to $1
million range in the second quarter fiscal 2007.
-- The Americas region represented 52 percent of total revenue;
Europe, Middle East, and Africa region represented
approximately 44 percent of total revenue; and Asia-Pacific
represented 4 percent of total revenue.
-- Key customer wins: Americas - Children's Hospital Central
California; City of Columbus, Ohio; City of Topeka, Kansas;
Marsh Supermarkets; Mosaic Sales Solutions; The Nebraska
Medical Center; Oldcastle and Scott County Minnesota; EMEA
-Boissons Glacieres Internationales; D2i Groupe Invicta;
Fletchers Bakeries; and Pork Farms Limited; Asia-Pacific -
Kumfs New Zealand; Sheppard Industries Limited; and THK,
Japan.
-- The company repurchased 331,766 shares of common stock in the
second quarter for $3.1 million at an average price of $9.29
per share. Since inception of the $200 million buyback
authorization in November 2006, the company has repurchased
12.5 million shares for $111.6 million at an average price of
$8.93, representing 6.7 percent of our shares outstanding as
of November 2006.
Impairment Charge for Auction Rate Securities
As of Nov. 30, 2007, the company had a total of $431.6 million in
cash and equivalents including $27.6 million in marketable securities
and $58.7 million in long-term investments. The company has a long
history of investing excess cash under a conservative corporate policy
that only allows investments in highly rated investment-grade
securities, with preservation of capital and liquidity as primary
objectives. The company's long-term investments at Nov. 30, 2007 were
held in auction rate securities that are currently rated AA or AAA and
are current on all obligations. However, the liquidity and fair value
of these securities has been impacted primarily by the uncertainty in
the credit markets and these securities' exposure to the financial
condition of the bond insurance companies. As a result, the company
believed it was prudent to record a permanent impairment charge of
$4.2 million as well as a temporary impairment charge of $0.8 million
to reduce the value of our auction rate securities to their estimated
fair value of $58.7 million as of Nov. 30, 2007, based in part on
market information provided by the broker-dealer managing our
investments. The permanent impairment charge is recorded as a
non-operating loss in other income which impacts GAAP fully diluted
earnings by $0.02 per share. The temporary impairment charge of $0.8
million is recorded as an unrealized loss in shareholders' equity. The
impairment charges represent future expected capital losses for which
the company currently does not have available capital gains to offset.
Accordingly, no tax benefits were recorded with this impairment. The
company has also classified the auction rate securities as long-term
investments at Nov. 30, 2007.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements that
contain risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements
contain statements of intent, belief or current expectations of Lawson
Software and its management. Such forward-looking statements are not
guarantees of future results and involve risks and uncertainties that
may cause actual results to differ materially from the potential
results discussed in the forward-looking statements. The company is
not obligated to update forward-looking statements based on
circumstances or events that occur in the future. Risks and
uncertainties that may cause such differences include but are not
limited to: uncertainties in Lawson's ability to realize synergies and
revenue opportunities anticipated from the Intentia International
acquisition; uncertainties in the software industry; uncertainties as
to when and whether the conditions for the recognition of deferred
revenue will be satisfied; increased competition; uncertainty
regarding potential future deterioration in the market for auction
rate securities which could result in additional permanent impairment
charges, global military conflicts; terrorist attacks; pandemics, and
any future events in response to these developments; changes in
conditions in the company's targeted industries and other risk factors
listed in the company's most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and
the most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission. Lawson assumes no obligation to update any
forward-looking information contained in this press release.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, Lawson Software
reports non-GAAP financial results. These non-GAAP results exclude
amortization of all acquisition-related intangibles, amortization of
purchased maintenance contracts, Intentia integration costs,
restructuring charges, certain stock-based compensation expenses and
other expenses. In addition, Lawson's non-GAAP financial results
include pro forma revenue for maintenance and consulting contracts
acquired in the Intentia acquisition for which the deferred revenue on
Intentia's balance sheet has been eliminated from GAAP results as part
of the purchase accounting for the acquisition. Lawson's management
believes the non-GAAP measures used in this press release are useful
to investors because they provide supplemental information that
research analysts frequently use to analyze software companies that
have recently made significant acquisitions. Management uses these
non-GAAP measures to evaluate its financial results, develop budgets
and manage expenditures. The method Lawson uses to produce non-GAAP
results is not computed according to GAAP, may differ from the methods
used by other companies, and should not be regarded as a replacement
for corresponding GAAP measures. Investors are encouraged to review
the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the
comparable GAAP results, which is attached to this release.

We provide the percent change in the results from one period to
another using constant currency disclosure to adjust year-over-year
measurements for impacts due to currency fluctuations. Constant
currency changes should be considered in addition to, and not as a
substitute for changes in revenues, expenses, income, or other
measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with US
GAAP. We calculate constant currency changes by converting entities
reporting in currencies other than the United States dollar at the
exchange rate in effect for the current period rather than the
previous period.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information In addition to reporting
financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, or GAAP, Lawson Software reports non-GAAP financial
results. These non-GAAP results exclude amortization of all
acquisition-related intangibles, Intentia integration costs, and other
expenses. In addition, Lawson's non-GAAP financial results include pro
forma revenue for maintenance and consulting contracts acquired in the
Intentia acquisition for which the deferred revenue on Intentia's
balance sheet has been eliminated from GAAP results as part of the
purchase accounting for the acquisition. Lawson's management believes
the non-GAAP measures used in this press release are useful to
investors because they provide supplemental information that research
analysts frequently use to analyze software companies that have
recently made significant acquisitions. Management uses these non-GAAP
measures to evaluate its financial results, develop budgets and manage
expenditures. The method Lawson uses to produce non-GAAP results is
not computed according to GAAP, may differ from the methods used by
other companies, and should not be regarded as a replacement for
corresponding GAAP measures. Investors are encouraged to review the
reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable
GAAP results, which is attached to this release.
