Intralinks Announces Third Quarter 2016 Results

NEW YORK, NY - November 2, 2016 - Intralinks Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: IL), a leading, global SaaS provider of secure content collaboration solutions, today announced its results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2016.

"Our results this quarter reflect our focus on expanding profit margins and cash flow," said Ron Hovsepian, Intralinks’ president and chief executive officer. "The initiatives we are taking resulted in a significant improvement in our non-GAAP operating margin which was 13% for the quarter, the highest in nearly five years. The improvement in our profitability also contributed to our significantly higher free cash flow during the third quarter. We are well positioned to continue to grow our business at double digit rates and further improve profitability in the fourth quarter, and into 2017 and beyond."

Business Outlook

Commenting on the company's outlook, Chris Lafond, Intralinks' chief financial officer said, "Our efforts to expand profit margins and increase cash flow are progressing at a faster pace than we anticipated as we accelerate our efforts to rationalize our cost structure. As a result, we have again increased our non-GAAP adjusted operating margin guidance for the year. This will also contribute to our higher expectations for free cash flow. We will deliver these results while continuing to make the investments necessary to drive double digit revenue growth."

Based on information available as of November 2, 2016, Intralinks is providing guidance for 2016 as follows:

Fourth Quarter 2016

Revenue: $78.9 million to $80.9 million

GAAP operating income $0.4 million to $1.4 million

Non-GAAP adjusted operating income: $9.3 million to $10.3 million

GAAP net (loss) income per share: $(0.04) to $0.01

Non-GAAP adjusted net income per share: $0.08 to $0.09

Full Year 2016

Revenue: $298.0 million to $300.0 million

GAAP operating loss: $(7.4) million to $(6.4) million

Non-GAAP adjusted operating income: $28.0 million to $29.0 million

GAAP net loss per share: $(0.27) to $(0.25)

Non-GAAP adjusted net income per share: $0.24 to $0.26

The company has a valuation allowance on its net U.S. deferred tax assets as we currently believe the assets will not be recoverable. Given expected improvements in business performance and other potential actions, it is possible we could conclude in the near future that a valuation allowance will no longer be required. If the company were to release the valuation allowance in the future, the current estimate of the GAAP income tax benefit that would be recognized could be as much as $26.0 million.

Business Metrics

ARR growth represents the percentage increase in the value attributable to all of our renewable subscription contracts for which revenue is recognized on a ratable basis as compared to the same date in the prior year. ARR is calculated as the annualized value of all renewable subscription contracts in effect at a specific point in time, without regard to the duration of the contract.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP” or “U.S. GAAP”). Our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the definitions used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore comparability may be limited. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to the company's results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered substitutes for or superior to the company's U.S. GAAP results. We endeavor to compensate for the limitations of the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release by providing the comparable GAAP measures with equal or greater prominence. We encourage investors to examine the reconciling adjustments between the GAAP and non-GAAP measures, which are included in this release.

Management defines its non-GAAP financial measures as follows:


•	Non-GAAP adjusted operating income represents the corresponding GAAP measure adjusted to exclude, if applicable: (1) amortization of intangible assets, (2) stock-based compensation expense and (3) impairment charges or asset write-offs.


•	Non-GAAP adjusted net income represents the corresponding GAAP measure adjusted to exclude, if applicable: (1) amortization of intangible assets, (2) stock-based compensation expense and (3) impairment charges or asset write-offs. The income tax expense included in non-GAAP adjusted net income is calculated using an estimated long-term effective tax rate.


•	Non-GAAP adjusted net income per share represents non-GAAP adjusted net income (which is defined above) divided by fully diluted weighted average shares outstanding.


•	Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less capitalized software development costs and capital expenditures.


•	The Company refers to growth rates at constant currency so that the results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates to facilitate comparisons of the Company's performance from one period to another. Constant currency for revenue is calculated by retranslating current and prior period revenue at a consistent rate.

Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed with our results under U.S. GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provide useful information about our period-over-period growth and provide additional information that is useful for evaluating our operating performance. In addition, free cash flow provides management with useful information for managing the cash needs of our business. Management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide a more meaningful comparison of our operating results against those of other companies in our industry, as well as on a period-over-period basis, because these measures exclude items that are not representative of our operating performance, such as amortization of intangible assets and stock-based compensation expense.

Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP financial measures are included in this press release.
