Business outlook

For the year ended January 31, 2019, the Company revised its previously provided outlook as follows:

  • Revenue in the range of $284 million and $287 million;
  • Net income in the range of $70 million and $73 million;
  • Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $115 million and $118 million;
  • Non-GAAP net income in the range of $72 million and $75 million; and
  • Non-GAAP net income per diluted share range between $1.13 and $1.17.

Non-GAAP net income per diluted share outlook is based on an estimated 64.0 million diluted weighted-average shares outstanding.

The Company also provided fiscal year 2020 revenue guidance in the range of $333 million to $339 million.

A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used throughout this release to the most comparable GAAP financial measures is included with the financial table at the end of this release.
