For Immediate Release: July 30, 2014

 

WESTFORD, Mass. — Sonus Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq: SONS), a global leader in securing real-time communications, today announced results for the second quarter ended June 27, 2014.

·                  Total Company revenue was $75.6 million, up 9% compared to the second quarter of 2013.

 

·                  Total Growth-related revenue(1) was $38.9 million, up 34% compared to the second quarter of 2013.

 

·                  Channel sales comprised 29% of product revenue, the highest contribution to-date.

 

·                  Company reported revenue from 798 customers, up 48% compared to the second quarter of 2013.

 

·                  GAAP gross margins were 62.6%; non-GAAP gross margins were 65.2%.

 

·                  GAAP loss per share was $0.02; non-GAAP diluted earnings per share were $0.02.

Quotes

 

“Our team has made excellent progress this year, meeting or exceeding all of our financial targets. I’m particularly proud that we have now demonstrated five consecutive quarters of non-GAAP profitability,” said Ray Dolan, president and chief executive officer.  “Looking to the second half of 2014, we are well-positioned to deliver on our targets while also continuing to strengthen our strategic relationships with tier one service providers around the globe.”

 

 

Mark Greenquist, chief financial officer, commented, “Our growth-related revenue grew 34% year over year. Contributing to this strong performance was approximately $5 million in revenue from the recently launched SBC 7000, which only began shipping in the last week of June. This product launch represented the fastest time-to-revenue of any new product in the Company’s history.”  Greenquist continued, “Our revenue guidance for the remainder of this year considers the potential for a large order to be recognized in 2015 instead of this year as originally projected. Despite this timing, based on the strength of our bookings and a robust funnel, we are reiterating our full year revenue forecast of $300 million, including $168 million of growth-related revenue. Higher than projected gross margins in the first half, primarily as a result of greater software-oriented product revenue, coupled with disciplined expense control, allow us to increase our non-GAAP EPS guidance for the year from $0.05 to $0.07.”

 

SBC 7000

 

The recently launched Sonus SBC 7000 Session Border Controller has been selected for deployment by several tier one service providers and a leading call center provider, marking the fastest time-to-revenue for any new product in the Company’s history.  Providing support for up to 150,000 sessions, the SBC 7000 sets a new performance and capacity standard in the industry for secure, reliable delivery of voice, video and collaboration services. It is purpose-built to support emerging services such as high definition (HD) voice and video, Voice over Long-Term Evolution (VoLTE) and Rich Communications Services (RCS), and effectively addresses the unprecedented traffic demands these services will place on networks at access and interconnect borders.

 

Share Repurchases

 

The Company has repurchased 42.3 million shares of common stock (15% of the shares that were outstanding at June 28, 2013) at an average price per share of $3.37.  As of June 27, 2014, the Company had 246.3 million shares outstanding. Approximately $32 million remains available to the Company for potential share repurchases under the current stock buyback program.

 

Cash & Investments

 

The Company ended the second quarter of 2014 with $149.5 million in cash and investments, including the impact of the share repurchases described above.

 

Organizational Changes

 

The Company has made significant progress over the past few years in successfully transitioning the business to sustainable growth and profitability including:

 

 

·                  expanding into high growth next generation communications markets including SBCs (Session Border Controllers) and DSCs (Diameter Signaling Controllers);

 

·                  substantially improving product quality while also increasing the pace of innovation;

 

·                  establishing a robust global channel program and expanding into the enterprise market;

 

·                  improving manufacturing processes, thereby enabling the Company to be more agile and cost effective; and

 

·                  driving broad process improvements across the Company, allowing resources to be redirected into growth areas while also delivering sustained increases in profitability.

 

In an effort to further accelerate the Company’s progress, the following organizational changes are being announced, effective immediately:

 

·                  Anthony Scarfo has been named Executive Vice President, Product Management and Corporate Development.  Scarfo was most recently Executive Vice President, Technology Development, where he was responsible for helping Sonus establish leadership in a number of key technology areas, including moving the entire Sonus SBC product portfolio into software in order to enable emerging cloud architectures.

 

·                  Kevin Riley has been named Vice President, Engineering and Chief Technology Officer.  Riley, who will be a direct report to President and CEO, Ray Dolan, has served as the Company’s CTO since January 2014 and has over 20 years of software development and engineering experience.  He has been instrumental in the Company’s efforts to drive an industry leading technology roadmap, including the award winning Sonus SBC SWe (software edition) and SBC 7000, the most successful new product introduction in the Company’s history.  Riley will continue to drive the Company’s innovation and development activities, with particular focus on enabling SDN and NFV cloud-based architectures of the future.

 

·                  Todd Abbott has stepped down as the Company’s Executive Vice President, Strategy and Go-to-Market, but will remain with the Company in an advisory role until mid-October to assist with an orderly transition of his responsibilities. Abbott has been instrumental over the past three years in creating the Company’s channel program and expanding the Company’s presence into the enterprise market.

 

·                  Michael Swade, Vice President, North American Sales since May 2014, will assume the role of Interim Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales and Marketing.  Swade has nearly 20 years of experience with various sales and marketing leadership positions within the communications industry.  He was most recently Executive Vice President, Sales at Yorktel, a leading global provider of UC&C, cloud, and video managed services for large enterprise and federal government customers. Prior to Yorktel, Swade was at Polycom in various senior leadership roles

 

 

including Senior Vice President, Field Operations, President, Europe, and Vice President, Service Provider and UC Sales.  Swade brings additional leadership experience from Lucent Technologies and Avaya.

Important Information Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

The information in this release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties.  All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this release, including statements in the sections “Quotes” and “Outlook,” statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, business strategy, plans and objectives of management for future operations and plans for future product development and manufacturing, and statements regarding the impact of the PT transaction on Sonus’ financial results, business performance and product offerings, are forward-looking statements.  Without limiting the foregoing, the words “anticipates”, “believes”, “could”, “estimates”, “expects”, “expectations”, “intends”, “may”, “plans”, “seeks”, “projects” and other similar language, whether in the negative or affirmative, are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.

 

Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy and other future conditions.  Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict.  Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including, but not limited to, the timing of our recognition of revenues; economic conditions; our ability to recruit and retain key personnel; difficulties supporting our strategic focus on channel sales; difficulties retaining and expanding our customer base; difficulties leveraging market opportunities; the impact of restructuring activities; our ability to realize benefits from the NET and PT acquisitions; the effects of disruption from the PT transaction, making it more difficult to maintain relationships with employees, customers, business partners or government entities; the success implementing the integration strategies of NET and PT; litigation; actions taken by significant stockholders; difficulties providing solutions that meet the needs of customers; market acceptance of our products and services; rapid technological and market change; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; our ability to maintain partner, reseller, distribution and vendor support and supply relationships; higher risks in international operations and markets; the impact of increased competition; currency fluctuations; changes in the market price of our common stock; and/or failure or circumvention of our controls and procedures.  These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different

 

 

from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.  We therefore caution you against relying on any of these forward-looking statements.  Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in these forward-looking statements are discussed in Part I, Item 2 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, Part I, Item 3 “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” and Part II, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in the Company’s most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  Any forward-looking statement made by us in this release speaks only as of the date of this release.  Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them.  We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

Sonus management uses a number of different financial measures, both GAAP and non-GAAP, in analyzing and assessing the overall performance of the business, making operating decisions, planning and forecasting future periods, and determining payments under compensation programs.  Our annual financial plan is prepared both on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis, and the non-GAAP annual financial plan is approved by our board of directors.  Continuous budgeting and forecasting for revenue and expenses are conducted on a non-GAAP basis (in addition to GAAP) and actual results on a non-GAAP basis are assessed against the annual financial plan.  We consider the use of non-GAAP financial measures helpful in assessing the core performance of our continuing operations and liquidity, and when planning and forecasting future periods.  By continuing operations we mean the ongoing results of the business excluding certain costs, including, but not limited to: cost of product revenue related to the fair value write-up of acquired inventory, stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, impairment of intangible assets, acquisition-related costs, divestiture costs, restructuring and other income arising from the settlement of litigation related to prepaid royalties for software licenses.  We also consider the use of non-GAAP earnings per share helpful in assessing the performance of the continuing operations of our business.  While our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures as a tool to enhance their understanding of certain aspects of our financial performance, our management does not consider these measures to be a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP measures.  In addition, our presentations of these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.  These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered alternatives for, or in isolation from, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

 

Investors are cautioned that there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as an analytical tool.  In particular, many of the adjustments to Sonus’ financial measures reflect the exclusion of items that are recurring and will be reflected in our financial results for the foreseeable future.

 

As part of the assessment of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the PT acquisition, we were required to increase the aggregate fair value of acquired inventory by $1.8 million.  The acquired inventory is being charged to cost of product revenue as it is sold to end customers.  We believe that excluding the incremental cost of product revenue resulting from the fair value write-up of this acquired inventory facilitates the comparison of our operating results to our historical results and to other companies in our industry.

 

 

Stock-based compensation is different from other forms of compensation, as it is a non-cash expense.  For example, a cash salary generally has a fixed and unvarying cash cost.  In contrast, the expense associated with an equity-based award is generally unrelated to the amount of cash ultimately received by the employee, and the cost to us is based on a stock-based compensation valuation methodology and underlying assumptions that may vary over time.  We believe that excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expense from our operating results facilitates the ability of readers of our financial statements to compare our financial results to our historical operating results and to other companies in our industry.

 

We exclude the amortization of acquired intangible assets from non-GAAP expense and income measures.  These amortization amounts are inconsistent in frequency and amount and are significantly impacted by the timing and size of acquisitions.  Although we exclude amortization of acquired intangible assets from our non-GAAP expenses, we believe that it is important for investors to understand that intangible assets contribute to revenue generation.  We believe that excluding the non-cash amortization of intangible assets facilitates the comparison of our financial results to our historical operating results and to other companies in our industry as if the acquired intangible assets had been developed internally rather than acquired.

 

In the second quarter of 2013 we recorded $0.6 million of expense for the write-off of an intellectual property intangible asset which we determined was impaired as of June 28, 2013.  We believe that excluding the impairment of intangible assets facilitates the comparison of our financial results to our historical operating results and to other companies in our industry.

 

We consider certain transition, integration and other acquisition-related costs to be unpredictable and dependent on a significant number of factors that may be outside of our control.  We do not consider these acquisition-related costs to be related to the continuing operations of the acquired business or the Company.  In addition, the size, complexity and/or volume of an acquisition, which often drives the magnitude of acquisition-related costs, may not be indicative of such future costs.  We believe that excluding acquisition-related costs facilitates the comparison of our financial results to our historical operating results and to other companies in our industry.

 

On June 20, 2014, we sold the Multi-Protocol Server (MPS) business that we had acquired in connection with the acquisition of PT.  We incurred $0.4 million of transaction costs related to this divestiture.  We do not consider these divestiture costs to be related to our continuing operations.  We believe that excluding divestiture costs facilitates the comparison of our financial results to our historical operating results and to other companies in our industry.

 

We have recorded restructuring expense to streamline operations and reduce operating costs by closing and consolidating certain facilities and reducing our worldwide workforce.  We believe that excluding restructuring expense facilitates the comparison of our financial results to our historical operating results and to other companies in our industry.

 

In the first quarter of 2014, we recorded $2.25 million of other income related to the settlement of a litigation matter in which we recovered a portion of our losses related to the impairment of certain prepaid royalties for software licenses which we had written off in fiscal 2012.  We believe that excluding the other income arising from this settlement facilitates the comparison of our results to our historical results and other companies in our industry.

 

We believe that providing non-GAAP information to investors, in addition to the GAAP presentation, will allow investors to view the financial results in the way management views the operating results.  We

 

 

further believe that providing this information helps investors to better understand our financial performance and evaluate the efficacy of the methodology and information used by our management to evaluate and measure such performance.
