Bazaarvoice (BV) Tops Q2 EPS by 4c

Number of Active Clients: Beginning as of our fourth fiscal quarter of 2014, we define an active client as an organization from which we are currently recognizing recurring revenue, and we count organizations that are closely related as one client, even if they have signed separate contractual agreements. We believe that our ability to increase our active client base is a leading indicator of our ability to grow revenue.
Further, due to the presentation of the PowerReviews business as discontinued operations since our fourth fiscal quarter of 2014 and subsequent divestiture in the first fiscal quarter of 2015, we have separated our active clients into two categories: 1) active clients from continuing operations and 2) active clients from discontinued operations. As a result of this analysis, each category could include a common client who may have organizations for which we recognized recurring revenue that have separate signed contractual agreements.
All periods prior to the fourth fiscal quarter of 2014 discussed in this press release or presented in the accompanying financial tables have been revised to conform to this definition of an active client.
