TROY, Mich., Nov. 08, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Altair (Nasdaq:ALTR) released its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2018.
“Altair’s third quarter results reflected better than expected profitability and continued software momentum, despite greater than expected foreign exchange headwinds,” said James Scapa, Founder, Chairman and CEO. “We are seeing broad-based growth across our business, including in the auto sector, due to the superior accuracy and time to value Altair’s solutions provide in the product design process.”
Scapa continued, “The pending acquisition of Datawatch significantly advances our vision of simulation driven design by accelerating the convergence of data and simulation. Similarly, the recently completed acquisition of SimSolid is a revolutionary advance in design simulation that will greatly enhance the accuracy and speed of product design. We are confident our expanded product offerings position us well to build upon our leadership in the CAE market and generate continue strong revenue growth and expanding profitability.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains the following non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income, Non-GAAP Net Income Per Share and Free Cash Flow.
Altair believes that these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations. The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare the Company’s performance to that of prior periods for trend analysis, for purposes of determining executive and senior management incentive compensation and for budgeting and planning purposes. The Company also believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other software companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.
Company management does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Altair urges investors to review the reconciliation of its non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures, which it includes in press releases announcing quarterly financial results, including this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.
Reconciliation tables of the most comparable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release are included with the financial tables at the end of this release.
