SeaChange International Reports First Quarter Fiscal 2018 Results

ACTON, Mass. (June 6, 2017) SeaChange International, Inc. (NASDAQ: SEAC) today reported first quarter fiscal 2018 revenue of $16.7 million and U.S. GAAP loss from operations of $5.5 million, or $0.16 per basic share, compared to first quarter fiscal 2017 revenue of $21.6 million and U.S. GAAP loss from operations of $9.6 million, or $0.28 per basic share.

The Company's U.S. GAAP first quarter fiscal 2018 results included non-GAAP charges of $3.8 million, which consisted primarily of severance and other restructuring costs of $2.1 million, stock-based compensation of $0.9 million and amortization of intangible assets from prior acquisitions of $0.6 million, while the first quarter fiscal 2017 results included $2.8 million of similar non-GAAP charges. The non-GAAP loss from operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 was $1.7 million, or $0.05 per basic share, compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017 non-GAAP loss from operations of $6.8 million, or $0.20 per share.

Ed Terino, Chief Executive Officer, SeaChange, said, In the first quarter of fiscal 2018, we saw success with existing and new customers for IP video and cloud-based deployments, as well as green field customer opportunities globally for our end-to-end solutions, all of which are collectively strengthening our pipeline for the year. At the same time, our ongoing restructuring initiatives yielded positive results more quickly. We continue to be focused on achieving a return to profitability, positive cash flow and revenue growth in the second half of this fiscal year.

Peter Faubert, Chief Financial Officer, SeaChange, said, We are pleased with our progress starting out the fiscal year, as we achieved revenue within our guidance range, but as importantly, well exceeded our forecast for non-GAAP EPS results due to higher margins and lower operating expense. Our gross profit margin was 59 percent, progressing to our goal of attaining margins in the low 60s on a recurring basis, especially as our revenue mix continues to transition from perpetual licenses to a monthly recurring revenue or SaaS basis.

We're on target to achieve a total of $38 million in cost savings on an annual run-rate basis from the program we started last year, which will include approximately $17 million to $18 million in annual run-rate savings in fiscal 2018," Faubert added. As Ed notes, we remain focused on returning the company to profitability and revenue growth in the second half of fiscal 2018. While we expect that the transition to subscription-based revenue models for more opportunities will pressure our top-line results in the short term, we believe this will improve both the visibility into and predictability of our revenue growth.

SeaChange ended the first quarter of fiscal 2018 with cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities of approximately $37 million, and no debt outstanding.

Outlook

SeaChange anticipates second quarter fiscal 2018 revenue to be in the range of $17 million to $20 million, U.S. GAAP loss from operations to be in the range of $0.13 to $0.07 per basic share, and non-GAAP loss from operations to be in the range of $0.09 to $0.03 per basic share. For full fiscal 2018, SeaChange anticipates revenue to be in the range of $80 million to $90 million, U.S. GAAP loss from operations to be in the range of $0.37 to $0.25 per basic share and non-GAAP operating income to be in the range of a loss of $0.10 per basic share to income of $0.02 per diluted share.

These GAAP estimates are subject to a number of variables that are outside of management's control, including the size of restructuring expenses, which are influenced by the timing of certain non-U.S. restructuring activities, and stock price fluctuations. The Company has made no provision for restructuring expense in its outlook for the second quarter of fiscal 2018.
