Business Outlook
Progresss fiscal 2015 financial guidance includes the impact of the significant strengthening of the US dollar that began in late 2014 and is based on current exchange rates. The negative currency translation impact on Progresss 2015 business outlook compared to 2014 exchange rates is $25 - $26 million on non-GAAP revenue and $0.14 - $0.15 on non-GAAP earnings per share. To the extent that there are further changes in exchange rates versus the current environment, this may have an additional impact on Progresss business outlook.
Progress provides the following revised guidance for the fiscal year ending November 30, 2015:
Non-GAAP revenue is expected to be between $410 million and $415 million (previously $415-$425 million);
Non-GAAP earnings per share is expected to be between $1.51 and $1.55 (previously $1.45-$1.52);
Non-GAAP operating margin is expected to be approximately 29% (previously 28%);
Free cash flow is expected to be between $92 million and $95 million (unchanged); and
Non-GAAP effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 33% (unchanged).
Progress provides the following guidance for the fiscal fourth quarter ending November 30, 2015:
Non-GAAP revenue is expected to be between $113 million and $118 million; and
Non-GAAP earnings per share is expected to be between $0.47 and $0.51.
