SecureWorks (NASDAQ: SCWX), a leading provider of intelligence-driven information security solutions, today announced financial results for its second quarter of fiscal 2018, which ended August 4, 2017.

“We delivered solid performance this quarter driven by double-digit revenue growth, continued gross margin expansion, a narrowing of our net loss and strong operating cash flow,” said Michael R. Cote, Chief Executive Officer of SecureWorks. “Our solutions unlock the value of our clients’ cybersecurity investments, simplify their complex security operations and amplify their defenses by protecting components of their security ecosystem. Looking ahead, we remain confident in our position as a leader in the estimated $20 billion global managed security services market1 and in our ability to improve sales momentum as the changes we made to our sales organization take hold in the second half of the fiscal year.”

Business and operational highlights for the second quarter of fiscal 2018 include the following:

• SecureWorks was noted as a Leader in the recent IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Managed Security Service 2017 Vendor Assessment report for “threat intelligence and advanced threat detection services that are highly sophisticated” and “Customer feedback [which] included praise for SecureWorks’ portal improvements, for the breadth of reports, and for the flexibility of services.”2
• The Company began bundling its Red Cloak® agent with Server Monitoring, thereby providing advanced analytics to significantly enhance visibility into potential threats, and dramatically improving our clients’ security posture through threat detection and response. This added functionality, which allows SecureWorks to gather additional security-specific telemetry, is available for both on-premises and AWS cloud servers that operate on the Windows platform.
• Shortly after the end of the second quarter, the Company joined forces with Carbon Black to deliver managed Advanced Endpoint Threat Prevention (AETP). This fully managed service features strong endpoint threat prevention via Cb Defense, a powerful Next-Generation Antivirus (NGAV) product. SecureWorks Threat Intelligence, backed by its advanced analyst team and built on the Counter Threat Platform™, adds context and actionable intelligence to help clients understand and respond to threats faster. Preventing threats and quickly identifying those that cannot be prevented are key factors in reducing business risk and the cost of a breach for clients.
• The company has expanded its program to orchestrate threat prevention to include certain products from Palo Alto Networks®, Cisco Systems® and Juniper Networks® as a part of the SecureWorks managed solution portfolio. This solution delivers SecureWorks’ proprietary intelligence to market-leading network security control points, providing proactive protection from emerging threats.
• At this year’s annual Black Hat conference, SecureWorks’ Counter Threat Unit released a new threat analysis detailing an intricate, year-long cyber-espionage campaign which used targeted spearphishing and social engineering. By combining robust threat intelligence with its powerful technology, SecureWorks alerted its clients to this campaign in early 2017.
• The Company teamed up with the National Health Information Sharing and Analysis Center (NH-ISAC) to provide critical cybersecurity services to its member organizations as part the NH-ISAC’s CYBERFIT® services.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release presents information about the Company’s non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP research and development expenses, non-GAAP sales and marketing expenses, non-GAAP general and administrative expenses, non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss per share and adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures provided as a supplement to the results provided in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to help evaluate its operating results by facilitating an enhanced understanding of its operating performance and enabling more meaningful period-to-period comparisons. There are limitations to the use of the non-GAAP financial measures presented in the press release. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Other companies, including companies in SecureWorks’ industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently than the Company does, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.

A reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided below for each of the periods indicated. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations in conjunction with the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures for each of the periods presented. In future fiscal periods, the Company may exclude such items and may incur income and expenses similar to these excluded items. Accordingly, the exclusion of these items and other similar items in this non-GAAP presentation should not be interpreted as implying that these items are non-recurring, infrequent or unusual.

The Company excludes the following items from one or more of its non-GAAP financial measures:

Impact of purchase accounting. The impact of purchase accounting consists primarily of purchase accounting adjustments related to a change in the basis of deferred revenue for the going-private transaction of Dell Inc. (“Dell”), an indirect parent of the Company, that was completed on October 29, 2013. The Company believes it is useful to exclude such purchase accounting adjustments related to the foregoing transactions as this deferred revenue generally results from multi-year service contracts under which deferred revenue is established upon sale and revenue is recognized over the term of the contract. Pursuant to the fair value provisions applicable to the accounting for business combinations, GAAP requires this deferred revenue to be recorded at its fair value, which is typically less than the book value. In presenting non-GAAP earnings, the Company adds back the reduction in revenue that results from this revaluation on the expectation that a significant majority of these service contracts will be renewed in the future and therefore the revaluation is not helpful in predicting its ongoing revenue trends. The Company believes that this non-GAAP financial adjustment is useful to investors because it allows investors to (1) evaluate the effectiveness of the methodology and information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, and (2) compare past and future reports of SecureWorks’ financial results, as the revenue reduction related to acquired deferred revenue will not recur when related service contracts are renewed in future periods.

Amortization of intangible assets. Amortization of intangible assets consists of amortization of customer relationships and acquired technology. In connection with Dell’s going-private transaction, all of the Company’s tangible and intangible assets and liabilities were accounted for and recognized at fair value on the transaction date. Accordingly, for periods after October 29, 2013, amortization of intangible assets consists of amortization associated with intangible assets recognized in connection with Dell’s going-private transaction.

Stock-based compensation. Non-cash stock-based compensation relates to awards under both the Dell Technologies and SecureWorks equity plans. We exclude such expenses when assessing the effectiveness of our operating performance since they do not necessarily correlate with the underlying operating performance of the business.

Other expenses. Other expenses include professional fees incurred by the Company in connection with the Company’s initial public offering and amounts expensed in the settlement of a legal matter. The Company excludes these expenses for the purpose of calculating the non-GAAP financial measures because it believes these items are outside the ordinary course of business and do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of its current operating performance or comparisons to its past operating performance.

Aggregate adjustment for income taxes. The aggregate adjustment for income taxes is the estimated combined income tax effect for the adjustments mentioned above. The tax effects are determined based on the tax jurisdictions where the above items were incurred.

As the excluded items can have a material impact on earnings, management compensates for this limitation by relying primarily on GAAP results and using non-GAAP financial measures supplementally. The non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered as indicators of performance in isolation from or as a substitute for revenue, gross margin, research and development expenses, sales and marketing expenses, general and administrative expenses, operating loss or net loss prepared in accordance with GAAP, and should be read only in conjunction with financial information presented on a GAAP basis.
