eGain Communications Corporation (OTCBB: EGAN), a leading provider of customer service and contact center software, today announced financial results for the first fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2009.
Total revenue for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 was $8.0 million, a decrease of 2% from the comparable year-ago quarter. License revenue was $2.0 million, an increase of 22% from the comparable year-ago quarter. Recurring services revenue was $4.0 million, a decrease of 3% from the comparable year-ago quarter. Professional services revenue was $2.0 million, a decrease of 16% from the comparable year-ago quarter.
Gross margin for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 was 68%, compared to 65% in the comparable year-ago quarter. Total operating costs and expenses for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 were $4.4 million, a decrease of 18% from the comparable year-ago quarter.
Net income for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 was $787,000, or $0.04 per share on a basic and diluted basis, compared to a net loss of $522,000, or $(0.03) per share for the comparable year-ago quarter. Net income for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 included stock-based compensation of $55,000 and interest expense of $277,000, compared to stock-based compensation expense of $83,000 and a net of interest expense and tax benefit of $471,000 for the comparable year-ago quarter.
Total cash and cash equivalents were $4.7 million at September 30, 2009, compared to $7.5 million at June 30, 2009. The decrease in cash was primarily due to a $3.0 million repayment of existing bank borrowings. Cash provided by operations was $462,000 for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010, compared to cash used in operations of $1.4 million in the comparable year-ago quarter. Days sales outstanding in receivables for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 were 52 days, compared to 44 days for the comparable year-ago quarter. Deferred revenues totaled $5.5 million at September 30, 2009 unchanged from June 30, 2009.
eGain's revenues for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 were negatively impacted by the reduced value of foreign currencies when compared to U.S. dollars. On a constant currency basis, using the exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2009, revenues for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 would have been up approximately 4%, rather than down 2% when compared to the first quarter of fiscal year 2009.
"We are pleased with our bookings to jumpstart fiscal 2010," said Ashu Roy, eGain's CEO. "Our earnings and cash flow improved significantly quarter-over-quarter. And we released eGain Service 9, our innovative Customer Interaction Hub suite, at our North America Customer Summit in Las Vegas."
Business Highlights
New Hosting and License Bookings(1)
-- New hosting and license bookings for the first quarter of fiscal year
2010 were $4.2 million, a decrease of 9% from the comparable year-ago
quarter. Of the total new hosting and license bookings in the first quarter
of fiscal year 2010, 47% was from new hosting bookings and 53% was from new
license bookings, compared to 36% from new hosting bookings and 64% from
new license bookings in the comparable year-ago quarter. On a constant
currency basis, using the exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2009,
bookings for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 would have been up
approximately 2%, rather than down 9%, when compared to the same period
last year.
Industry Recognition
-- eGain was placed in the Leaders(2) quadrant of the Gartner Magic
Quadrant for E-Service Suites 2009 report, authored by Johan Jacobs and
Michael Maoz (published September 11, 2009).
-- eGain Service was selected as KMWorld Trend-Setting Product of 2009.
(1) We define New Hosting and License Bookings as new contractual commitments (excluding renewals) received by the company for the purchase of product licenses and hosting services. Such contracts are not cancelable for convenience but may be subject to termination by our customers for cause or breach of contract by us. Furthermore, because we offer a hybrid delivery model, the mix of new license and hosting business in a quarter could also have an impact on our revenue in a particular quarter. Due to effects that these trends have on our short-term revenue and profitability, we believe that it is useful to disclose New Hosting and License Bookings detail in this and future financial releases. We use this metric internally to focus management on the productivity of the sales team and period-to-period changes in our core business. Therefore, we believe that this information is meaningful and helpful in allowing individuals to better assess the ongoing nature of our core operations.
(2) Gartner defines Magic Quadrant leaders as companies that "demonstrate market-defining vision and the ability to execute against that vision through products, services, demonstrable sales figures and solid new references for multiple geographies and vertical industries. Leaders provide functionally diverse and rich e-service suites that can be deployed and supported globally, and have at least five of the six e-service components supported by OEMs. They are suitable for all sizes and complexities of enterprises, and have broad industry coverage. Revenue is strong, and new references are readily available. When asked, their clients reply that this product has affected the organization's competitive position in the market."

(1) We present constant currency information to provide a framework for
assessing how our underlying business performed excluding the effect
of foreign currency rate fluctuations. To present this information,
current and comparable year-ago period results for entities reporting
in currencies other than United States dollars are converted into
United States dollars at the exchange rate in effect June 30, 2009,
which was the last day of our prior fiscal year, rather than the actual
exchange rates in effect during the respective periods.
