Cloud and Automation Acceleration Drive Strong Q1 2020 Results

Verint Reiterates Commitment to Continue Board Refreshment This Fiscal Year

June 3, 2019

Dear Fellow Stockholders,

Over two years ago, Verint’s Board began a strategic transformation that is delivering significant value to our stockholders. This successful strategy, which includes accelerated innovation, evolving financial disclosures and Board refreshment – is under serious threat – and so is the value of your investment.

DON’T LET NEUBERGER BERMAN DERAIL VERINT’S SUCCESSFUL TRANSFORMATION

Neuberger Berman, a 2.6% stockholder who has already had input into the selection of one of our eight directors, is attempting to gain additional Board influence so that it can force significant and abrupt changes on Verint that we believe would destroy value.

Our Board has embraced change and is committed to further change to continue to drive stockholder value , but believes that Neuberger Berman’s ideas, if adopted, would harm our customer relationships, disrupt our business momentum, and remove Board members who are vital to the success of our company.

WE ARE OPPOSING NEUBERGER BERMAN IN THIS PROXY CONTEST BECAUSE WE BELIEVE THEIR IDEAS ARE HIGHLY RISKY AND DAMAGING TO YOUR INVESTMENT

We are determined to protect our stockholders from Neuberger Berman’s ill-informed and dangerous ideas . We believe their proposed actions – some of which they have not fully disclosed in public – would damage the value of your investment. We have engaged extensively and have tried to reason with Neuberger Berman, but – despite their public claims – they are privately insisting on increasing their influence on our Board, we believe, to further their value-destructive agenda.

IN OUR PRIVATE DISCUSSIONS, NEUBERGER BERMAN HAS DEMANDED WE COMMIT TO THE FOLLOWING VALUE-DESTRUCTIVE ACTIONS

 

   

      X      

 

 

 

Halt our strong momentum while their unqualified nominees re-evaluate our successful strategy and products

 

   

    X    

 

 

 

 

Split the company now, regardless of the consequences

 

 

 

     X     

 

 

 

Change product and strategy direction even if it causes concern and confusion for our customers

This table shows that our strategy is clearly working. We believe Neuberger Berman has attempted to deliberately mislead stockholders by quoting TSR metrics that intentionally exclude the market’s positive reaction to our FY2019 results and enhanced disclosures. We believe that Neuberger Berman is misleading investors by using metrics that date back to periods prior to 2013, a time when Verint was a controlled company and its parent company was in turmoil, as they well know. These distraction tactics do not change the fact that our performance over the last three years has been excellent.

STRONG Q1 2020 RESULTS ACROSS KEY METRICS 4

Our strong momentum over the last two years accelerated in Q1. Non-GAAP revenue increased 11% y-o-y, margins expanded by 340bps and EPS increased 38% y-o-y. Cash from operations increased 55% y-o-y, reflecting the underlying strength in our business.

CLOUD FIRST STRATEGY

Verint is now one of the largest cloud vendors in our Customer Engagement market and we target 30% - 40% cloud revenue CAGR over the next three years. We have a CLOUD FIRST strategy and our salesforce is leading with SaaS. All our solutions run in the Verint cloud and we have a robust cloud offering ranging from small- to medium-sized business solutions all the way up to enterprise-class solutions, elevating customer experience and driving operating efficiencies.

GAAP Revenue              $122 Million                $151 Million         

Based on our cloud leadership, we believe our large installed base will migrate to the cloud over time creating an opportunity for 2x cloud revenue uplift. We make it easy for our customers to seamlessly transition their installed base by providing feature parity between our on-premise and cloud solutions. Cloud adoption in our market provides a significant opportunity for revenue upside and margin expansion.

ANALYSTS SUPPORT VERINT’S STRATEGY AND GROWTH POTENTIAL

As our growth strategy continues to drive successful results and share price appreciation, research analysts have reported their positive views on Verint’s performance and outlook:

 

 

 

 

Prospects are brightening as the company is executing well, and both segments are achieving healthy revenue growth and improved profitability.”

 

SHAUL EYAL, ANALYST, OPPENHEIMER & CO. RESEARCH REPORT, MAY 30, 2019 8

 

          

 

 

 

 

 

In our opinion after almost two years of hitting/beating Street estimates, this story is starting to finally get the respect from investors it deserves despite some of the recent noise from short reports/bears. The major investments in automation/analytics and cloud are clearly paying dividends in the field and speak to secular tailwinds as more contact centers move to the cloud.”

 

DANIEL IVES, ANALYST, WEDBUSH SECURITIES RESEARCH REPORT, MAY 30, 2019 8

 

 

 

 

We are encouraged by the more granular disclosure, and believe that execution towards the company’s targets should lead to multiple expansion over time. Our price target goes to $72, from $71. Maintain Overweight.”

 

PAUL COSTER, ANALYST, JP MORGAN SECURITIES RESEARCH REPORT, MAY 22, 2019 8

 

 

 

 

Revenue-growth is inflecting to above 10% CAGR, and [Verint] seems well positioned for the deployment of actionable intelligence into adjacencies. We are increasing our estimates... Reiterate Overweight with conviction.”

 

PAUL COSTER, CFA, ANALYST, JP MORGAN RESEARCH REPORT, MAY 7, 2019 8

 

VERINT IS COMMITTED TO CONTINUING TO EVOLVE OUR DISCLOSURES

As our business has evolved, our disclosure has also evolved and it will continue to do so. Verint has enhanced its disclosure in the past as our business changed, based on what we heard would be useful to our investors. We did so again in our first quarter 2020 earnings announcement, sharing three-year non-GAAP revenue and EPS targets that reflect our confidence in our growth strategy and the relevance of these metrics to investors.

Analysts are commenting positively on our enhanced disclosure.

 

 

 

 

We also loudly applaud the increased transparency around revenue/cloud targets as this continues to be a driver for the stock to get re-rated as [Verint] shifts to a software based model adding leverage/scale over the next 12 to 18 months.”

We also liked [the] expanded view into three year Customer Engagement targets, which demonstrate the potential growth and margin opportunities around these trends.”

 

DAN BERGSTROM, ANALYST, RBC CAPITAL MARKETS RESEARCH REPORT, MAY 21, 2019 8

          

 

 

 

We really appreciate the new disclosures. It’s very helpful.”

 

ANUBHAV MEHLA, JEFFERIES RESEARCH ASSOCIATE, VERINT CUSTOMER ENGAGEMENT AUTOMATION AND CLOUD STRATEGY WEBCAST, MAY 7, 2019 8

 

VERINT HAS ROBUST ENGAGEMENT WITH STOCKHOLDERS AND IS COMMITTED TO CONTINUED BOARD REFRESHMENT

Your Board and management team have deep, ongoing engagement with the company’s stockholders, conducting more than 100 calls and meetings with investors representing approximately 65% of our shares over the past 12 months, and we welcome constructive ideas to drive long-term sustainable value creation.

We are committed to ongoing Board refreshment, and we have added three new directors over the last three years, including one director at Neuberger Berman’s suggestion in 2017. This fiscal year we intend to continue the refreshment process and add a director with recent and relevant experience in cloud, cyber security, and/or software who will also enhance the diversity of the Board.

VERINT’S HIGHLY QUALIFIED AND INDEPENDENT BOARD IS COMMITTED AND BEST-SUITED TO EXECUTE THE STRATEGY THAT WILL DRIVE VALUE CREATION FOR ALL VERINT STOCKHOLDERS

We strongly urge stockholders to support Verint by voting “ FOR ” Verint’s entire slate of eight highly qualified directors on the WHITE proxy card.

Sincerely,

The Board of Directors of Verint Systems Inc.

 

If you have any questions, or need assistance in voting your shares, please call the firm assisting us in the solicitation of proxies:

TOLL-FREE at 1 (877) 750-9496 (from the U.S. and Canada)

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION REGARDING NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This document contains non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP forward looking statements. The tables below reconcile the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures, used in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures, provide investors with useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our business by: (i) facilitating the comparison of our financial results and business trends between periods, by excluding certain items that either can vary significantly in amount and frequency, are based upon subjective assumptions, or in certain cases are unplanned for or difficult to forecast; (ii) facilitating the comparison of our financial results and business trends with other technology companies who publish similar non-GAAP measures; and (iii) allowing investors to see and understand key supplementary metrics used by our management to run our business, including for budgeting and forecasting, resource allocation, and compensation matters. We also make these non-GAAP financial measures available because a number of our investors have informed us that they find this supplemental information useful.

 

8


LOGO

 

Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation as substitutes for, or superior to, comparable GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures we present have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP, and these non-GAAP financial measures should only be used to evaluate our results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures do not represent discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business, and we may in the future incur expenses similar to or in addition to the adjustments made in these non-GAAP financial measures. Other companies may calculate similar non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Our non-GAAP Consolidated, Customer Engagement, and Cyber Intelligence three-year targets exclude various GAAP measures, including:

   

Amortization of intangible assets.

   

Stock-based compensation expenses.

   

Revenue adjustments.

   

Acquisition expenses.

   

Restructuring expenses.

Our non-GAAP Consolidated three-year targets also reflect income tax provisions on a non-GAAP basis.

We are unable, without unreasonable efforts, to provide a reconciliation for these GAAP measures which are excluded from our non-GAAP Consolidated, Customer Engagement, and Cyber Intelligence three-year targets, due to the level of unpredictability and uncertainty associated with these items. For these same reasons, we are unable to assess the probable significance of these excluded items.

Our non-GAAP Consolidated, Customer Engagement, and Cyber Intelligence three-year targets reflect foreign currency exchange rates approximately consistent with current rates.

Our non-GAAP outlook for the year ending January 31, 2020 excludes the following GAAP measures which we are able to quantify with reasonable certainty:

   

Amortization of intangible assets of approximately $55 million.

   

Amortization of discount on convertible notes of approximately $12 million.

Our non-GAAP outlook for the year ending January 31, 2020 excludes the following GAAP measures for which we are able to provide a range of probable significance:

 

   

Revenue adjustments are expected to be between approximately $24 million and $26 million.

   

Stock-based compensation is expected to be between approximately $73 million and $77 million, assuming market prices for our common stock approximately consistent with current levels.

Our non-GAAP outlook does not include the potential impact of any in-process business acquisitions that may close after the date hereof, and, unless otherwise specified, reflects foreign currency exchange rates approximately consistent with current rates.

We are unable, without unreasonable efforts, to provide a reconciliation for other GAAP measures which are excluded from our non-GAAP outlook, including the impact of future business acquisitions or acquisition expenses, future restructuring expenses, and non-GAAP income tax adjustments due to the level of unpredictability and uncertainty associated with these items. For these same reasons, we are unable to assess the probable significance of these excluded items.
