Auriga reiterates a 'Buy' on Broadsoft (NASDAQ: BSFT) price target of $50.00.
Analyust, Kevin Dade, said, "Sales benefitted from solid book-and-ship business and the recognition of $5.5M in deferred (although maintenance and service deferred increased sequentially to $37.2M from $36.5M in December) and billings fell to $32.8M from $47.7M in December. Operating margin expanded to 22.6% from 18.5% in March 2011. While BroadSoft's position appears uniquely defined in providing hosted UC and SIP trunking applications to its service provider customer base, the company contends that carrier activity remains difficult to forecast in the current environment, and on that basis presented guidance for the June quarter that was identical to its original March quarter expectation of $36-$38M and $0.17-$0.23 non-GAAP EPS."
