Fiscal 2015 Guidance

eGain is reiterating its previously stated guidance of total annual revenue for fiscal 2015, ending June 30, 2015, of between $80 million and $85 million, and that it expects to exit fiscal 2015 with an adjusted EBITDA run rate of at least 5%.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The reported results include adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, defined as net income (loss), adjusted for the impact of purchase accounting adjustments to deferred revenue related to acquisitions, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, interest expense, net, income tax (benefit) provision, amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition-related expenses and severance and related charges. Non-GAAP results are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. eGain's management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare the company's performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, and for budgeting and planning purposes. eGain 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, and that it allows for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. 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. eGain urges investors to review the reconciliation and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the company's business.
