Total orders up 46 percent from 2013 third quarter; Cloud-based orders double to 68 percent of total orders.
- (1888PressRelease) November 06, 2014 - DUBAI, United Arab Emirates - Interactive Intelligence Group Inc. (Nasdaq: ININ), a global provider of software and services designed to improve the customer experience, has announced financial results for the three and nine months ended Sept. 30, 2014.
"This quarter showed further evidence of our success in generating more revenue from our cloud-based services," said Dr. Donald E. Brown, Interactive Intelligence founder and CEO. "Orders for our cloud solutions not only doubled from the same quarter last year, but moved from less than half to over two-thirds of our total orders received. This growth and shift to the cloud occurred across all of our major geographic markets, and was more prominent among sales to new customers compared to existing follow-on sales.
"We continue to deploy our cloud solutions for new customers, which will contribute to increasing cloud revenues. We expect that the first release of our new multi-tenant PureCloud solution this quarter will further accelerate this trend," Brown concluded.

Nine Months Ended 2014 Financial Highlights:

Including this large cloud-based order, total orders increased 6 percent and cloud-based orders were up 24 percent. Cloud-based orders represented 61 percent of total orders during the first nine months of 2014. In this same period, 129 orders were signed over $250,000, including 31 orders over $1 million.
- Revenues: Total revenues were $248.8 million, an increase of 9 percent over the first nine months of 2013.

Non-GAAP operating loss was $(7.1) million for the first nine months of 2014, compared to non-GAAP operating income of $16.7 million during the same period last year. The year-over-year decline was primarily due to lower than anticipated product revenues, combined with increased sales and marketing expenses to capture cloud market share, and increased research and development expenses to accelerate time-to-market of PureCloud.

GAAP net income for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2013 included an income tax benefit primarily driven by a change in transfer pricing implemented during the second quarter of 2013.
Non-GAAP net loss for the first nine months of 2014 was $(3.8) million, or $(0.18) per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $11.1 million, or $0.53 per diluted share during the same period in 2013.
