CYREN Reports Third Quarter 2014 Results

MCLEAN, Va., Nov. 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- CYREN Ltd. (NASDAQ: CYRN), a global provider of cloud-based cybersecurity solutions, today announced its third quarter 2014 financial results for the period ending September 30, 2014.

Third Quarter 2014 Financial Highlights:

Revenues in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (US GAAP) totaled $7.7 million for the third quarter of 2014 compared to $8.0 million in the third quarter of 2013.
Non-GAAP revenues totaled $7.8 million for the third quarter of 2014 compared to $8.1 million in the third quarter of 2013. The difference between non-GAAP and GAAP revenue is derived from the fact that deferred revenues consolidated from acquired companies are accounted under GAAP based on fair value.
GAAP net loss for the third quarter of 2014 was $0.7 million compared to a net loss of $0.9 million in the third quarter of 2013.
GAAP loss per basic and diluted share for the third quarter of 2014 was $0.02, compared to a loss of $0.03 in the third quarter of 2013.
Non-GAAP net loss for the third quarter 2014 was $0.7 million compared to non-GAAP net income of $0.3 million in the third quarter of 2013.
Non-GAAP loss per basic and diluted share for the third quarter 2014 was $0.02, compared to non-GAAP earnings per diluted share of $0.01 in the third quarter of 2013.
Cash used by operating activities during the quarter was $0.1 million. Net cash provided by financing activities during the quarter was $10.2 million.
Cash as of September 30, 2014 was $13.1 million, compared to $3.1 million as of June 30, 2014. In addition, the company had drawn $5.3 million under its $7.5 million credit facility. The increase in cash primarily reflects the $10.2 million in net proceeds CYREN raised in a registered direct offering that closed on July 30, 2014.

"CYREN remains in a strong financial position with the revenue generated from our embedded business and the capital raised in July. We see particularly strong demand from enterprise customers for our embedded solutions and strong interest in our cloud-based CYREN WebSecurity offering," said Lior Samuelson, CEO and Chairman of the Board at CYREN. "We continue work with our increasing number of channel partners to accelerate the onboarding process and revenue growth. We are also focusing resources on enterprises who are actively seeking to replace or augment their existing security appliances with a next generation SaaS-based solution."

For information regarding the non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this release, please see "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information" and "Reconciliation of Selected GAAP Measures to Non GAAP Measures."

Business Highlights:

CYREN completed a registered direct offering, which was oversubscribed and brought in $11.5 million in gross proceeds, strengthening the company's balance sheet and giving it the ability to further execute its growth strategy.
Tesco, a leading retailer in the United Kingdom, will use the company's Embedded URL Filtering product in a new version of an Android tablet being released ahead of the holiday season. This is one of the first times CYREN's URL filtering solutions will be embedded in an Android device.
CYREN extended its contract with ATOS Germany to provide the company's EmailSecurity solution to large enterprise customers. The renewed contract will run through mid-2018. CYREN is also working with ATOS Germany to expand their partnership to include reselling the WebSecurity and EmailSecurity SaaS solutions.
CYREN signed a three-year deal to provide embedded AntiSpam and Outbound AntiSpam solutions to one of the largest security technology companies in the world. This supplements two other CYREN contracts with this company that utilize CYREN's embedded Antivirus solutions.
During the third quarter, the company increased the number of CYREN WebSecurity partners to 24 (up from 18 at the end of the second quarter), including distributors and resellers in 18 countries.

Business Outlook

The company expects fourth quarter revenues to be at similar levels as the third quarter, and full year 2014 revenue to be flat to slightly down compared with 2013. The above outlook is as of the date of this release, and the company undertakes no obligation to update its estimates in the future.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
Non-GAAP financial measures consist of GAAP financial measures adjusted to exclude: stock-based compensation expenses, amortization and impairment of acquired intangible assets, executive termination costs, deferred taxes and deferred revenues related to acquisitions, acquisition related costs, onetime settlement agreements, reorganization expenses and adjustments to earn-out obligations. The purpose of such adjustments is to give an indication of the company's performance exclusive of non-cash charges and other items that are considered by management to be outside of the company's core operating results. The company's non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures, and should be read only in conjunction with the company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Company management regularly uses supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate the business and make operating decisions.

These non-GAAP measures are among the primary factors management uses in planning for and forecasting future periods. The company believes this adjustment is useful to investors as a measure of the ongoing performance of the business. The company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide consistent and comparable measures to help investors understand the company's current and future operating cash flow performance. These non-GAAP financial measures may differ materially from the non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Reconciliation between results on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis is provided in a table immediately following the Consolidated Statements of Income. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Management uses both GAAP and non-GAAP measures when evaluating the business internally and therefore felt it important to make these non-GAAP adjustments available to investors.
