SAN JOSE, Calif. – July 27, 2016 – Quantum Corp. (NYSE: QTM) today reported results for the fiscal first quarter 2017 ended June 30, 2016 (all comparisons are relative to the fiscal first quarter 2016)1 :
| |
• | Total revenue was $116.3 million, an increase of $5.4 million. |
| |
• | Scale-out storage revenue grew to $30.8 million, up from $27.8 million. |
| |
• | Total data protection revenue increased to $76.9 million, consisting of $21.5 million in disk backup systems revenue (up 24 percent), $42.6 million in tape automation revenue (down |
| |
• | 4 percent) and $12.8 million in devices and media revenue (up 17 percent). |
| |
• | Royalty revenue was $8.6 million, a decline of $1.6 million. |
| |
• | Quantum reported a GAAP operating loss of $2.1 million and non-GAAP2 operating income of $2.1 million, an improvement of $6.1 million and $6.5 million, respectively. |
| |
• | The GAAP net loss was $3.8 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, and non-GAAP net income was $360,000, or $0.00 per diluted share. This represented an improvement of $0.03 per diluted share on both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis. |
|
| | | | |
| | | | |
| | | | |
1 Revenue figures for scale-out storage, data protection, disk backup systems and tape automation include related service revenue. |
2 A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures is included in the accompanying tables. Historical data on non-GAAP items is available in the company’s supplemental financial information posted on its website. |
| |
• | The company generated $5.2 million in cash from operations, in contrast to using $13.6 million in cash in the comparable quarter a year ago. |
“We’re very pleased with our first quarter results, as we delivered year-over-year revenue growth, with strong contributions from both our scale-out storage and data protection product lines,” said Jon Gacek, president and CEO of Quantum. “In scale-out storage, we continued to build on our momentum, securing major wins across our priority vertical markets and use cases and further expanding the addressable markets where our scale-out storage solutions offer unique value. For example, in April we announced a large public cloud, scale-out storage win, which we expected to generate $10 million in total revenue for the year. That opportunity has since expanded, and we now expect the resulting revenue contributions — which started in the first quarter — to total at least $20 million for the year.
“On the data protection side of our business, we closed a multi-million dollar DXi® deduplication deal and capitalized on a more stable tape backup market, where we are a long-standing leader. We also significantly improved our bottom line performance, as we continued to benefit from the cost reductions and operational changes we implemented over the previous six months, which further strengthened our business model and the leverage it provides.
“In short, we had a strong start to fiscal 2017, and we’re focused on building on our momentum to drive continued growth, profitability and cash flow. Based on our first quarter results, we have increased confidence in our ability to meet the full year guidance we provided on our May earnings call.”
Fiscal Second Quarter 2017 Outlook
Quantum provided the following guidance for the fiscal second quarter:
| |
• | Total revenue of $118 million to $122 million. |
| |
• | GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin of 41-42 percent. |
| |
• | GAAP and non-GAAP operating expenses of $50 million to $51 million and $48 million to $49 million, respectively. |
| |
• | Interest expense of $1.5 million and taxes of $400,000. |
| |
• | GAAP and non-GAAP loss per share of $0.01 to $0.00. |
Finally, Quantum CFO Fuad Ahmad provided an update on the company’s refinancing activities.
“We are in discussions with a number of financial institutions regarding expanding our credit line to provide sufficient near- and long-term liquidity and to create a clear and executable roadmap to address our convertible notes due November 2017,” said Ahmad. “We’ve received strong indications of interest from two different lending sources, each of which has provided preliminary terms that, if successfully executed in a definitive agreement, not
only would provide substantial additional liquidity but also should alleviate any perceived market risks related to the convertible notes.”
Fiscal First Quarter 2017 Business Highlights
| |
• | Quantum introduced three new reference architectures for video surveillance and security environments. These architectures address the storage challenges presented by new fixed cameras, expansions of existing security systems, and law enforcement implementations. They are based on the company’s unique tiered storage approach which provides the performance, capacity and accessibility that are essential in meeting today’s increasing demands for managing surveillance data. |
| |
• | The company announced that Avid® has developed a connector for its Interplay® | MAM system and Quantum’s StorNext Storage Manager™ that enables seamless integration of Quantum archive storage systems into Avid media environments. As a result, media and entertainment customers now have the ability to access and control StorNext® archive and restore functions through Interplay | MAM, including automated movement of content across different archive storage tiers. This solution provides more intelligent, long-term content management, faster access to a nearline archive tier via standard network protocols and better protection of Avid projects with an archive strategy. |
| |
• | Lab testing by Enterprise Strategy Group, an independent analyst firm, confirmed that Quantum’s Artico™ active archive appliance offers a simple-to-configure-and-manage tiered archive that is easily integrated into existing workflows. ESG Lab demonstrated that Artico works with tape, object storage and cloud repositories while its policy-based data management enables data movement, protection and resiliency, retention and encryption. ESG also affirmed that Artico’s NAS connectivity makes it easy to integrate and that its automated tiered storage engine makes it transparent to archive data on demand. |
| |
• | Komprise Inc. and Quantum announced a joint solution which enables organizations to seamlessly integrate archive storage into their active workflows to cope with exponential data growth under tight budgets. The combination of Komprise data management software and services with Quantum Lattus® object storage or Artico active archive solutions delivers scalable capacity and automated data movement without disrupting users or applications. |

“Safe Harbor” Statement: This press release contains “forward-looking” statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements. Specifically, but without limitation, statements relating to: i) our expectation that a large public cloud, scale-out storage win will result in revenue of at least $20 million for the year; ii) our focus on building on our momentum to drive continued growth, profitability and cash flow, our increased confidence in our ability to meet our full year guidance; iii) all of our statements under the heading titled “Fiscal Second Quarter 2017 Outlook”; and iv) our statements regarding our refinancing activities, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Safe Harbor. All forward-looking statements in this press release are based on information available to Quantum on the date hereof. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause Quantum’s actual results to differ materially from those implied by the forward-looking statements. More detailed information about these risk factors are set forth in Quantum’s periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, but not limited to, those risks and uncertainties listed in the section entitled “Risk Factors,” in Quantum’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 3, 2016. Quantum expressly disclaims any obligation to update or alter its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Quantum believes that the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed above provide useful and supplemental information to investors regarding its quarterly financial performance. Quantum management and Board of Directors use these non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate the company’s business results and make operating decisions. For instance, Quantum management often makes decisions regarding staffing, future management priorities and how the company will direct future operating expenses on the basis of non-GAAP financial measures. In addition, compensation of our employees is based in part on the performance of our business based on non-GAAP operating income.
The non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release exclude the impact of the items below for the following reasons:
Amortization of Intangible Assets
This includes acquired intangibles such as purchased technology in connection with prior acquisitions. These expenses are not factored into management’s evaluation of potential acquisitions or Quantum’s performance after completion of the acquisitions because they are not related to Quantum’s core operating performance. In addition, the frequency and amount of such charges can vary significantly based on the size and timing of acquisitions and the maturities of the businesses being acquired. Excluding acquisition-related charges from non-GAAP measures provides investors with a basis to compare Quantum against the performance of other companies without the variability caused by purchase accounting.
Share-Based Compensation Expense
Share-based compensation expense relates primarily to equity awards such as stock options and restricted stock units. Share-based compensation is a non-cash expense that varies in amount from period to period and is dependent on market forces that are often beyond Quantum’s control. Management believes that non-GAAP measures adjusted for share-based compensation provide investors with a basis to measure Quantum’s core performance against the performance of other companies without the variability created by share-based compensation as a result of the variety of equity awards used by other companies and the varying methodologies and assumptions used.
Restructuring Charges
Restructuring charges primarily relate to expenses associated with changes to Quantum’s operating structure. Restructuring charges are excluded from non-GAAP financial measures because they are not considered core operating activities. Although Quantum has engaged in various restructuring activities in the past, each has been a discrete event based on a unique set of business objectives. Management believes that it is appropriate to exclude restructuring charges from Quantum’s non-GAAP financial measures, as it enhances the ability of investors to compare Quantum’s period-over-period operating results from continuing operations.
Proxy Contest and Related Costs
Proxy contest and related costs are expenses incurred to respond to activities and inquiries of VIEX Capital Advisors, LLC, including their proxy solicitation. These costs are not considered core operating activities. Management believes that it is appropriate to exclude these costs in order to provide investors the ability to compare Quantum’s period-over-period operating results from continuing operations.
Crossroads Patent Litigation Costs
Crossroads patent litigation costs are expenses incurred to defend ourselves and perform other activities related to a patent infringement lawsuit filed by Crossroads Systems, Inc. These costs are excluded from non-GAAP financial measures because they are not considered core operating activities, and management believes that it is appropriate to exclude these costs in order to provide investors the ability to compare Quantum’s period-over-period operating results from continuing operations.
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. They are limited in value because they exclude charges that have a material impact on the company’s reported financial results and, therefore, should not be relied upon as the sole financial measures to evaluate the company. The non-GAAP financial measures are meant to supplement, and be viewed in conjunction with, GAAP financial measures. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided in the tables accompanying this press release.
