Interactive Intelligence Reports Second-Quarter 2014 Financial Results
Cloud-based revenues increased 77 percent from 2013 second quarter.
- (1888PressRelease) August 08, 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 six months ended June 30, 2014.
"Our second-quarter revenues show the ongoing shift of our business to the cloud and were primarily impacted by lower than expected on-premises orders as well as the deferral of revenues from two sizable contracts we expected to recognize," said Interactive Intelligence founder and CEO Dr. Donald Brown. "The shift to the cloud market is accelerating and will continue to result in more revenues being deferred to future quarters leading to greater overall growth of recurring revenue. Given the ongoing demand for our cloud-based offering and the strength of our pipeline globally, we remain committed to making investments that drive the growth of our business. With the release of our new multi-tenant Interactive Intelligence PureCloud offering expected in October, the company remains well positioned to gain market share and reduce cost of delivery."

Non-GAAP Measures
The non-GAAP measures shown in this release include revenue which was not recognized on a GAAP basis due to purchase accounting adjustments, exclude non-cash stock-based compensation expense, certain acquisition-related expenses and the amortization of certain intangible assets related to acquisitions by the company, and adjust for non-GAAP income tax expense. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included with the financial information included in this press release. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Stock-based compensation expense and amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions are non-cash and non-GAAP income tax expense is pro forma based on non-GAAP earnings. Management believes that the presentation of non-GAAP results, when shown in conjunction with corresponding GAAP measures, provides useful information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends related to the company's results of operations. Further, our management believes that these non-GAAP measures improve management's and investors' ability to compare the company's financial performance with other companies in the technology industry. Because stock-based compensation expense, certain acquisition-related expenses and amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions amounts can vary significantly between companies, it is useful to compare results excluding these amounts. Our management also reviews financial statements that exclude stock-based compensation expense, certain acquisition-related expenses and amortization of intangibles amounts related to acquisitions for its internal budgets.
Forward Looking Statements
This release may contain certain forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the following: rapid technological changes and competitive pressures in the industry; worldwide economic conditions and their impact on customer purchasing decisions; the company's ability to maintain profitability; to manage successfully its growth; to manage successfully its increasingly complex third-party relationships resulting from the software and hardware components being licensed or sold with its solutions; to maintain successful relationships with certain suppliers which may be impacted by the competition in the technology industry; to maintain successful relationships with its current and any new partners; to maintain and improve its current products; to develop new products; to protect its proprietary rights and sensitive customer information adequately; improve the company's brand and name recognition; to successfully integrate acquired businesses; and other factors described in the company's SEC filings, including the company's latest annual report on Form 10-K.
