Lawson Software Reports Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2009 Financial Results
Q4 2009 GAAP EPS of $0.06 and non-GAAP EPS of $0.10
ST. PAUL, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Regulatory News:
Lawson Software, Inc. (Nasdaq: LWSN) today reported financial results for its
fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009, which ended May 31, 2009. Lawson reported
revenues of $186.2 million, down 20 percent from the fourth quarter of fiscal
2008, or 11 percent at constant currency. Currency fluctuations negatively
impacted revenues as foreign currencies weakened substantially over the past
year compared to the U.S. dollar. License fees declined 19 percent, or 12
percent adjusted for currency, principally from a lower level of software sales
to manufacturing customers in the Europe, Middle East and Africa region.
Consulting revenues declined 34 percent, or 25 percent adjusted for currency,
driven primarily by fewer billable consultants and reduced software license
sales throughout the year resulting in lower bookings for consulting and
implementation services. Maintenance revenues declined 4 percent due to
currency, but increased 4 percent on a constant currency basis.
Fourth quarter GAAP net income of $9.8 million, or $0.06 per diluted share
increased compared to net income of $3.7 million, or $0.02 per diluted share in
the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008, primarily driven by a $3.4 million benefit in
the provision for income taxes reflecting a reduction in the company's valuation
allowance against certain foreign tax assets. This adjustment increased net
earnings per diluted share by approximately $0.02. Other impacts on earnings per
share include the following:
Gross margin as a percent of revenues increased to 55 percent from 53 percent a
year ago as a higher mix of maintenance revenues to total revenues offset a
lower consulting margin.
Operating expenses, including research and development, sales and marketing,
general and administrative and amortization of acquired intangibles, declined by
$25.8 million but were partially offset by an $8.9 million restructuring charge
in the quarter.
Interest income declined $2.4 million, or 84 percent, due to lower earned
interest on investments, consistent with marketplace declines in interest rates.
Other expenses decreased as the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008 included a $6.1
million impairment charge for auction rate securities.
The company estimates currency fluctuations had a positive impact of
approximately $0.01 on net earnings per diluted share for the fourth quarter.
Included in GAAP net income and earnings per diluted share results are pre-tax
expenses of $14.9 million for restructuring, amortization of acquired intangible
assets, non-cash stock-based compensation, amortization of purchased maintenance
contracts, purchase accounting impact on consulting costs and pre-merger claims
reserve adjustment. Excluding these expenses and including $0.1 million of
revenue impacted by purchase accounting adjustments, non-GAAP net income for the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 was $17 million, or $0.10 per diluted share.
Non-GAAP net income per diluted share includes a non-GAAP provision for income
taxes based upon an estimated rate of 35 percent. The company estimates currency
fluctuations had no material impact on non-GAAP net earnings per diluted share
for the fourth quarter. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share of $0.10 were flat
compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008.
“Our fourth quarter completed a successful year given the environment,” said
Harry Debes, Lawson president and chief executive officer. “During our fiscal
year we invested in new products and services to help our customers get more
value out of their existing Lawson solutions. We redefined the user experience
with Lawson Smart Office and Lawson Enterprise Search. We continued to deepen
our focus on our vertical markets, and we successfully launched Lawson's
industry-specific solution for the Equipment Service Management and Rental
market. We also aligned our costs early in our fiscal year to respond to a
weakening global economy. All these efforts enabled Lawson to achieve an annual
non-GAAP operating margin of 12 percent and EPS of $0.35, both of which are the
highest in our public company history.”
Twelve Months Ended May 31, 2009
Total revenues for the twelve months ended May 31, 2009 were $757.3 million,
down 11 percent, or 6 percent adjusted for currency, from revenues of $852
million during the same fiscal 2008 period. GAAP net income was $18.9 million,
or $0.11 per diluted share, increasing from net income of $13.7 million, or
$0.08 per diluted share in the comparable fiscal 2008 period. Other factors
impacting earnings per share include the following:
Gross margin as a percent of revenues increased to 52 percent from 51 percent in
fiscal 2008 due to a higher mix of maintenance revenues to total revenues and an
increase maintenance margin which offset a lower consulting margin.
Operating expenses, including research and development, sales and marketing,
general and administrative and amortization of acquired intangibles, declined by
$54.7 million but were partially offset by $20 million of restructuring expense.
Interest income declined $13.8 million, or 69 percent, due to lower earned
interest on investments, consistent with marketplace declines in interest rates.
Other expense decreased as fiscal 2008 included impairment charges of $18.4
million for auction rate securities.
The provision for income taxes declined 21 percent primarily because the prior
fiscal year had an impairment charge for auction rate securities with no
associated tax benefit recorded.
The company estimates currency fluctuations had a positive impact of
approximately $0.01 on net earnings per diluted share for the twelve-month
period.
Included in the twelve-month GAAP results are pre-tax expenses of $46.1 million
for restructuring, amortization of acquired intangible assets, non-cash
stock-based compensation, amortization of purchased maintenance contracts,
purchase accounting impact on consulting costs and pre-merger claims reserve
adjustments. Excluding these expenses and including $0.5 million of revenue
impacted by purchase accounting adjustments, non-GAAP net income for the twelve
months ended May 31, 2009, was $58.7 million, or $0.35 per diluted share. The
company estimates currency fluctuations had a positive impact of approximately
$0.01 on non-GAAP net earnings per diluted share for the twelve-month period.
Non-GAAP net income per diluted share includes a non-GAAP provision for income
taxes based upon an estimated rate of 35 percent. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted
share of $0.35 increased year-over-year from $0.33 for the twelve months ended
May 31, 2008.
Financial Guidance
For the first quarter of fiscal 2010, which ends Aug. 31, 2009, the company is
providing guidance using foreign exchange rates as of the end of June 2009. The
company estimates total revenues of $160 million to $165 million. The company
anticipates GAAP fully diluted earnings per share will be $0.01 to $0.03.
Non-GAAP fully diluted earnings per share are forecasted to be in the range of
$0.05, excluding approximately $9 million of pre-tax expenses related to the
amortization of acquired intangible assets, non-cash stock-based compensation,
incremental non-cash convertible note interest, and amortization of purchased
maintenance contracts. The company also forecasts total net other expense of
approximately $1.2 million per quarter. The non-GAAP effective tax rate for the
first quarter is estimated at 37 percent, which the company expects to apply
consistently throughout the fiscal year. The company is not providing financial
guidance for the full fiscal year ending May 31, 2010 but expects to modestly
improve non-GAAP operating margin over fiscal 2009.
Implementation of FSP APB 14-1
The anticipated first quarter GAAP earnings per diluted share include $2.1
million of incremental non-cash interest expense resulting from the
implementation of a new accounting standard related to the company's convertible
notes. This interest is excluded from the company's non-GAAP results. For the
fiscal year the incremental non-cash interest expense related to the company's
convertible notes is anticipated to be $8.3 million.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
The method we use to produce non-GAAP results is not in accordance with GAAP and
may differ from the methods used by other companies. These non-GAAP results
should not be regarded as a substitute for corresponding GAAP measures but
instead should be utilized as a supplemental measure of operating performance in
evaluating our business. Non-GAAP measures do have limitations in that they do
not reflect certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported
financial results. As such, these non-GAAP measures should be viewed in
conjunction with both our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP
and the reconciliation of the supplemental non-GAAP financial measures to the
comparable GAAP results provided for each period presented, which are attached
to this release.
Our primary non-GAAP reconciling items are as follows:
Purchase accounting impact on revenue - Lawson's non-GAAP financial results
include pro forma adjustments for deferred maintenance and consulting revenues
that we would have recognized under GAAP but for the related purchase
accounting. The deferred revenue for maintenance and consulting on the acquired
entity's balance sheet, at the time of the acquisition, was eliminated from GAAP
results as part of the purchase accounting for the acquisition. As a result, our
GAAP results do not, in management's view, reflect all of our maintenance and
consulting activity. We believe the inclusion of the pro forma revenue
adjustment provides investors a helpful alternative view of Lawson's maintenance
and consulting operations.
Amortization of purchased maintenance contracts - We have excluded amortization
of purchased maintenance contracts from our non-GAAP results. The purchase price
related to these contracts is being amortized based upon the proportion of
future cash flows estimated to be generated each period over the estimated
useful lives of the contracts. We believe that the exclusion of the amortization
expense related to the purchased maintenance contracts provides investors an
enhanced understanding of our results of operations.
Incremental non-cash interest related to convertible debt - We have excluded the
incremental non-cash interest expense related to our $240.0 million in 2.5%
senior convertible notes that we are required to recognize under FSP APB 14-1
from our non-GAAP results of operations beginning with the three-month period
ending August 31, 2009. This FSP requires us to recognize significant additional
non-cash interest expense based on the market rate for similar debt instruments
that do not contain a comparable conversion feature. We have allocated a portion
of the proceeds from the issuance of the senior notes to the embedded conversion
feature resulting in a discount on our senior notes. The debt discount is being
amortized as additional non-cash interest expense over the term of the notes
using the effective interest method. These non-cash interest charges are not
included in our operating plans and are not included in management's assessment
of our operating performance. We believe that the exclusion of the non-cash
interest charges provide investors useful information relating to the cost
structure of our operations.
Stock-based compensation - Expense related to stock-based compensation has been
excluded from our non-GAAP results of operations. These charges consist of the
estimated fair value of share-based awards including stock option, restricted
stock, restricted stock units and share purchases under our employee stock
purchase plan. While the charges for stock-based compensation are of a recurring
nature, as we grant stock-based awards to attract and retain quality employees
and as an incentive to help achieve financial and other corporate goals, we
exclude them from our results of operation in assessing our operating
performance. These charges are typically non-cash and are often the result of
complex calculations using an option pricing model that estimates stock-based
awards' fair value based on factors such as volatility and risk-free interest
rates that are beyond our control. The expense related to stock-based awards is
generally not controllable in the short-term and can vary significantly based on
the timing, size and nature of awards granted. As such, we do not include such
charges in our operating plans. In addition, we believe the exclusion of these
charges facilitates comparisons of our operating results with those of our
competitors who may have different policies regarding the use of stock-based
awards.
Pre-merger claims reserve adjustment - We have excluded the adjustment to our
pre-merger claims reserve from our non-GAAP results. As part of the purchase
accounting relating to the Intentia transaction, we established a reserve for
Intentia customer claims and disputes that arose before the acquisition which
were originally recorded to goodwill. As we are outside the period in which
adjustments to such purchase accounting is allowed, adjustments to the reserve
are recorded in our general and administrative expenses under GAAP. We do not
consider the adjustments to this reserve established under purchase accounting
in our assessment of our operating performance. Further, since the original
reserve was established in purchase accounting, the original charge was not
reflected in our operating statement. We believe that the exclusion of the
pre-merger claims reserve adjustment provides investors an appropriate
alternative view of our results of operations and facilitates comparisons of our
results period-over-period.
Restructuring - We have recorded various restructuring charges related to
actions taken to reduce our cost structure to enhance operating effectiveness
and improve profitability and to eliminate certain redundancies in connection
with acquisitions. These restructuring activities impacted different functional
areas of our operations in different locations and were undertaken to meet
specific business objectives in light of the facts and circumstances at the time
of each restructuring event. These charges include costs related to severance
and other termination benefits as well as costs to exit leased facilities. These
restructuring charges are excluded from management's assessment of our operating
performance. We believe that the exclusion of the non-recurring restructuring
charges provide investors an enhanced view of the cost structure of our
operations and facilitates comparisons with the results of other periods that
may not reflect such charges or may reflect different levels of such charges.
Amortization - We have excluded amortization of acquisition-related intangible
assets including purchased technology, client lists, customer relationships,
trademarks, order backlog and non-compete agreements from our non-GAAP results.
The fair value of the intangible assets, which was allocated to these assets
through purchase accounting, is amortized using accelerated or straight-line
methods which approximate the proportion of future cash flows estimated to be
generated each period over the estimated useful lives of the applicable assets.
While these non-cash amortization charges are recurring in nature and the
underlying assets benefit our operations, this amortization expense can
fluctuate significantly based on the nature, timing and size of our past
acquisitions and may be affected by any future acquisitions. This makes
comparisons of our current and historic operating performance difficult.
Therefore, we exclude such accounting expenses when analyzing the results of all
our operations including those of acquired entities. We believe that the
exclusion of the amortization expense of acquisition-related intangible assets
provides investors useful information facilitating comparison of our results
period-over-period and with other companies in the software industry as they
each have their own acquisition histories and related adjustments.
Impairment of long-term investments - The liquidity and fair value of our
investments in marketable securities, including Auction Rate Securities (ARS),
were negatively impacted in fiscal 2008 by the uncertainty in the credit markets
and exposure to the financial condition of bond insurance companies. As a
result, during the second, third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2008 we recorded
impairment charges to reduce the carrying value of our ARS investments. The
impairment charges related to our ARS investments have been excluded from our
non-GAAP results of operations. These impairment charges are excluded from
management's assessment of our operating performance. We believe that the
exclusion of these unique charges provide investors an enhanced view of our
operations and facilitates comparisons with the results of other periods that do
not reflect such charges.
