Verint Announces Q3 FY2021 Results
Strong Sequential Growth in Q3; Expect Strong Q4 and Resuming Guidance
Customer Engagement Cloud Momentum Expected to Continue in Q4 and Next Year
Separation Plan on Track; Announcing New Name for Cyber Intelligence Business – Cognyte Software Ltd
Virtual Investor Days to be Held in January Ahead of Separation to Review Strategies and Long-Term Targets
MELVILLE, N.Y., December 9, 2020 - Verint® Systems Inc. (NASDAQ: VRNT), a global Actionable Intelligence® leader, today announced results for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2020 (FY2021). Revenue for the three months ended October 31, 2020 was $328 million on a GAAP basis and $331 million on a non-GAAP basis. For the three months ended October 31, 2020, diluted EPS was $0.11 on a GAAP basis, and $1.02 on a non-GAAP basis. Revenue for the nine months ended October 31, 2020 was $925 million on a GAAP basis and $936 million on a non-GAAP basis. For the nine months ended October 31, 2020, diluted EPS was $0.11 on a GAAP basis, and $2.61 on a non-GAAP basis.
“We had a solid Q3 with strong sequential revenue growth and year-over-year adjusted EBITDA growth, driving a 16% increase in cash from operations year-to-date. We made significant progress with all our key initiatives, including the business separation, Customer Engagement cloud transition and Cyber Intelligence software model margin expansion. Our shift to the cloud is accelerating and our on-premises business continued to recover from the initial impact of COVID-19. We expect to finish the year strong and are resuming guidance,” said Dan Bodner, CEO.
Separation Progress Highlights
•On track to complete the separation shortly after fiscal year-end
•Expect to make public filing with the SEC within two weeks
•Unveiling new name for our Cyber Intelligence business - Cognyte Software Ltd
•Cognyte expected to be listed on NASDAQ with ticker CGNT
•Virtual investor days and management roadshows to take place in January
Bodner continued: “Both of our businesses are market leaders that have significant growth opportunities. We look forward to discussing each company's strategies and financial models for the post-separation period at our investor days in January.”
Customer Engagement Q3 Highlights
•Large Cloud Orders Across Multiple Industries (TCV): Including orders for $11 million (insurance), $3 million (healthcare), $2 million (banking), $2 million (business services), $2 million (financial services), and $2 million (utilities)
•Strong Cloud Momentum: On track for approximately 20% non-GAAP cloud revenue growth this year, excluding ForeSee
“In Q3, we experienced another strong quarter of cloud revenue growth and continued to win new cloud customers and displace competitors due to our product differentiation and partner agnostic strategy. COVID-19 is accelerating our cloud transition and for the full year we expect - for the first time - about half of our new software bookings (on a perpetual license equivalent basis) to come from SaaS, a significant increase from about one third in the prior year. We also expect recurring revenue to represent 80% of our software revenue, a 400bps increase from the prior year. Looking forward, next year we expect our cloud revenue growth to accelerate and to substantially complete our cloud transition.” said Bodner.
Cyber Intelligence Q3 Highlights
•Large Orders: Including one for ~$15 million, one for ~$7.5 million, and four for ~$5 million each
•Software Model Drives Margin Expansion and Strong Gross Profit Growth: Gross margins increased 900bps year-over-year and gross profit increased 21% year-over-year, each on a non-GAAP estimated fully allocated basis
Bodner continued, “In Q3, we continued to win many large deals due to our differentiated analytical security software. We are executing well on our software strategy and expect our gross margins to exceed 70% this year on a non-GAAP estimated fully allocated basis. Cognyte is well positioned to be an independent public company with a large and growing TAM, differentiated security analytics software portfolio, and strong track record.”
Announcing Cognyte and Verint Investor Days - January 11th and January 21st
Verint and Cognyte will each host their own respective virtual investor days in January. Members of each company’s leadership team will discuss a variety of topics including their business’ growth strategies and long-term outlooks. A question and answer session will follow the prepared remarks and members of the investment community are invited to submit questions ahead of or during the applicable investor day.
•Cognyte Investor Day: Monday, January 11, 2021, beginning at 10am ET.
•Verint Investor Day: Thursday, January 21, 2021, beginning at 10am ET.
Additionally, both the Verint and Cognyte management teams will be conducting virtual roadshows following their respective investor days.
Resuming FY2021 Guidance and Providing Initial FY2022 Outlook and Long-Term Targets on Today's Conference Call
•Our FY2021 non-GAAP revenue outlook is $1.280 billion with a range of +/- 1%
•Our FY2021 non-GAAP diluted EPS outlook is $3.40 at the midpoint of our revenue guidance
“We are pleased with the building momentum in our businesses, our visibility has improved and we are providing guidance for the current year. In addition, we will provide an initial view on our outlook for FY2022 and long-term targets during today’s conference call. We will also provide more details at our virtual investor days in January,” said Doug Robinson, CFO of Verint.
Our non-GAAP outlook for the year ending January 31, 2021 excludes the following GAAP measures which we are able to quantify with reasonable certainty:
•Amortization of intangible assets of approximately $50 million, including $48 million in Customer Engagement and $2 million in Cyber Intelligence.
•Amortization of discount on convertible notes of approximately $13 million, all of which pertains to Customer Engagement.
•Costs to separate Verint into two independent public companies of approximately $45 million, including $28 million attributable to Customer Engagement and $17 million attributable to Cyber Intelligence.
Our non-GAAP outlook for the year ending January 31, 2021 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 $12 million and $15 million, including between $9 million and $11 million in Customer Engagement and between $3 million and $4 million in Cyber Intelligence.
•Stock-based compensation is expected to be between approximately $68 million and $78 million, assuming market prices for our common stock approximately consistent with current levels, including between $46 million and $52 million in Customer Engagement and between $22 million and $26 million in Cyber Intelligence.
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. While historical results may not be indicative of future results, actual amounts for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2020 and 2019 for the GAAP measures excluded from our non-GAAP outlook appear in Tables 2 and 3 to this press release.
Conference Call Information
We will conduct a conference call today at 4:30 p.m. ET to discuss our results for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2020, outlook, and long-term targets. An online, real-time webcast of the conference call and webcast slides will be available on our website at www.verint.com.

revenue; risks associated with our ability to keep pace with technological advances and challenges and evolving industry standards; to adapt to changing market potential from area to area within our markets; and to successfully develop, launch, and drive demand for new, innovative, high-quality products that meet or exceed customer needs, while simultaneously preserving our legacy businesses and migrating away from areas of commoditization;

Verint Systems Inc. and Subsidiaries
Supplemental Information About Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Operating Metrics
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures, consisting of non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP software revenue (includes cloud and support), non-GAAP perpetual revenue, non-GAAP support revenue, non-GAAP professional services revenue, non-GAAP recurring revenue, non-GAAP nonrecurring revenue, non-GAAP cloud revenue, non-GAAP SaaS revenue, non-GAAP bundled SaaS revenue, non-GAAP unbundled SaaS revenue, non-GAAP optional managed services revenue, estimated GAAP fully allocated cost of revenue, estimated GAAP and non-GAAP fully allocated gross profit and gross margins, estimated GAAP and non-GAAP fully allocated research and development, net, estimated GAAP and non-GAAP fully allocated selling, general and administrative expenses, estimated GAAP and non-GAAP fully allocated operating income and operating margins, non-GAAP other income (expense), net, non-GAAP provision (benefit) for income taxes and non-GAAP effective income tax rate, non-GAAP net income attributable to Verint Systems Inc. common shares, non-GAAP diluted net income per common share attributable to Verint Systems Inc., estimated fully allocated adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margins, net debt, non-GAAP segment expenses, non-GAAP shared support expenses and constant currency measures. The tables above include a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure for completed periods presented in this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
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:
•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,
•facilitating the comparison of our financial results and business trends with other technology companies who publish similar non-GAAP measures, and
•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.
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 financial measures are calculated by making the following adjustments to our GAAP financial measures:
Revenue adjustments. We exclude from our non-GAAP revenue the impact of fair value adjustments required under GAAP relating to cloud services and customer support contracts acquired in a business acquisition, which would have otherwise been recognized on a stand-alone basis. We believe that it is useful for investors to understand the total amount of revenue that we and the acquired company would have recognized on a stand-alone basis under GAAP, absent the accounting adjustment associated with the business acquisition. Our non-GAAP revenue also reflects certain adjustments from aligning an acquired company’s revenue recognition policies to our policies. We believe that our non-GAAP revenue measure helps management and investors understand our revenue trends and serves as a useful measure of ongoing business performance.
Amortization of acquired technology and other acquired intangible assets. When we acquire an entity, we are required under GAAP to record the fair values of the intangible assets of the acquired entity and amortize those assets over their useful lives. We exclude the amortization of acquired intangible assets, including acquired technology, from our non-GAAP financial measures because they are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and size of acquisitions. We also exclude these amounts to provide easier comparability of pre- and post-acquisition operating results.
Stock-based compensation expenses. We exclude stock-based compensation expenses related to restricted stock awards, stock bonus programs, bonus share programs, and other stock-based awards from our non-GAAP financial measures. We evaluate our performance both with and without these measures because stock-based compensation is typically a non-cash expense and can vary significantly over time based on the timing, size and nature of awards granted, and is influenced in part by certain factors which are generally beyond our control, such as the volatility of the price of our common stock. In addition, measurement of stock-based compensation is subject to varying valuation methodologies and subjective assumptions, and therefore we believe that excluding stock-based compensation from our non-GAAP financial measures allows for meaningful comparisons of our current operating results to our historical operating results and to other companies in our industry.
Unrealized gains and losses on certain derivatives, net. We exclude from our non-GAAP financial measures unrealized gains and losses on certain foreign currency derivatives which are not designated as hedges under accounting guidance. We exclude unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency derivatives that serve as economic hedges against variability in the cash flows of recognized assets or liabilities, or of forecasted transactions. These contracts, if designated as hedges under accounting guidance, would be considered “cash flow” hedges. These unrealized gains and losses are excluded from our non-GAAP financial measures because they are non-cash transactions which are highly variable from period to period. Upon settlement of these foreign currency derivatives, any realized gain or loss is included in our non-GAAP financial measures.
Amortization of convertible note discount. Our non-GAAP financial measures exclude the amortization of the imputed discount on our convertible notes. Under GAAP, certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion are required to be bifurcated into separate liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components in a manner that reflects the issuer’s assumed non-convertible debt borrowing rate. For GAAP purposes, we are required to recognize imputed interest expense on the difference between our assumed non-convertible debt borrowing rate and the coupon rate on our 1.50% convertible notes. This difference is excluded from our non-GAAP financial measures because we believe that this expense is based upon subjective assumptions and does not reflect the cash cost of our convertible debt.
Expenses and losses on debt modification or retirement. We exclude from our non-GAAP financial measures losses on early retirements of debt attributable to refinancing or repaying our debt, and expenses incurred to modify debt terms, because we believe they are not reflective of our ongoing operations.
Change in fair value of future tranche right. On December 4, 2019, we entered into an Investment Agreement with an affiliate of Apax Partners (the “Apax Investor”), whereby the Apax Investor agreed to make an investment in us of up to $400.0 million of convertible preferred stock. In connection with the Apax Investor’s first $200.0 million investment on May 7, 2020 (for 200,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock), we determined that our obligation to issue, and the Apax Investor’s obligation to purchase, up to 200,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock upon the completion of the spin-off of our Cyber Intelligence Solutions business and other customary closing conditions (the “Future Tranche Right”) meets the definition of a freestanding financial instrument. This Future Tranche Right is reported at fair value as an asset or liability on our consolidated balance sheet, and is remeasured at fair value each reporting period until settlement, with changes in its fair value recognized within other income (expense), net on the consolidated statement of operations. We are excluding this change in fair value of the Future Tranche Right from our non-GAAP financial measures because it is unusual in nature, can vary significantly in amount, and is unrelated to our ongoing operations.
Acquisition expenses, net. In connection with acquisition activity (including with respect to acquisitions that are not consummated), we incur expenses, including legal, accounting, and other professional fees, integration costs, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration obligations, and other costs. Integration costs may consist of information technology expenses as systems are integrated across the combined entity, consulting expenses, marketing expenses, and professional fees, as well as non-cash charges to write-off or impair the value of redundant assets. We exclude these expenses from our non-GAAP financial measures because they are unpredictable, can vary based on the size and complexity of each transaction, and are unrelated to our continuing operations or to the continuing operations of the acquired businesses.
Restructuring expenses. We exclude restructuring expenses from our non-GAAP financial measures, which include employee termination costs, facility exit costs, certain professional fees, asset impairment charges, and other costs directly associated with resource realignments incurred in reaction to changing strategies or business conditions. All of these costs can vary significantly in amount and frequency based on the nature of the actions as well as the
changing needs of our business and we believe that excluding them provides easier comparability of pre- and post-restructuring operating results.
Separation expenses. On December 4, 2019, we announced our intention to separate into two independent publicly traded companies: one which will consist of our Customer Engagement Solutions business, and one which will consist of our Cyber Intelligence Solutions business. We are incurring significant expenses to prepare for this separation, including third-party advisory, accounting, legal, consulting, and other similar services related to the separation as well as costs associated with the operational separation of the two businesses, including those related to human resources, brand management, real estate, and information technology (which IT expenses are included in Separation expenses to the extent not capitalized). Separation expenses also include incremental cash income taxes related to the reorganization of legal entities and operations in order to effect the separation. These costs are incremental to our normal operating expenses and are being incurred solely as a result of the separation transaction. Accordingly, we are excluding these separation expenses from our non-GAAP financial measures in order to evaluate our performance on a comparable basis.
Impairment charges and other adjustments. We exclude from our non-GAAP financial measures asset impairment charges (other than those already included within restructuring or acquisition activity), rent expense for redundant facilities, gains or losses on sales of property, gains or losses on settlements of certain legal matters, and certain professional fees unrelated to our ongoing operations, including fees and expenses (or recoveries) related to a shareholder proxy contest that was settled in June 2019 of $(1.3) million and $7.8 million during the nine months ended October 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, all of which are unusual in nature and can vary significantly in amount and frequency.
Non-GAAP income tax adjustments. We exclude our GAAP provision (benefit) for income taxes from our non-GAAP measures of net income attributable to Verint Systems Inc., and instead include a non-GAAP provision for income taxes, determined by applying a non-GAAP effective income tax rate to our income before provision for income taxes, as adjusted for the non-GAAP items described above. The non-GAAP effective income tax rate is generally based upon the income taxes we expect to pay in the reporting year. Our GAAP effective income tax rate can vary significantly from year to year as a result of tax law changes, settlements with tax authorities, changes in the geographic mix of earnings including acquisition activity, changes in the projected realizability of deferred tax assets, and other unusual or period-specific events, all of which can vary in size and frequency. We believe that our non-GAAP effective income tax rate removes much of this variability and facilitates meaningful comparisons of operating results across periods. Our non-GAAP effective income tax rate for the year ending January 31, 2021 is currently approximately 8%, and was 8% for the year ended January 31, 2020. We evaluate our non-GAAP effective income tax rate on an ongoing basis and it can change from time to time. Our non-GAAP income tax rate can differ materially from our GAAP effective income tax rate.
Customer Engagement Revenue Metrics and Operating Metrics
Software (includes cloud and support) includes, software licenses, appliances, SaaS and optional managed services. Recurring Software Revenue includes SaaS, optional managed services and support revenue.
Cloud revenue, on both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis, primarily consists of SaaS and optional managed services. A portion of our revenue associated with unbundled SaaS is included within support revenue. We expect this amount to become larger and more meaningful over time and intend to include it in our cloud revenue and exclude it from our support revenue.
SaaS revenue includes bundled SaaS, software with standard managed services and unbundled SaaS that we account for as term licenses where managed services are purchased separately.
Optional Managed Services is recurring services that are intended to improve our customers operations and reduce expenses.
New SaaS Annual Contract Value (ACV) includes the annualized contract value of all new SaaS contracts received within the period; in cases where SaaS is offered to partners through usage-based contracts, we include the incremental value of usage contracts over a rolling four quarters.
New Perpetual License Equivalent Bookings are used to normalize between perpetual and SaaS bookings and measure overall software growth. We calculate new perpetual license equivalent bookings by multiplying New SaaS
ACV bookings (excluding bookings from maintenance conversions, except for the uplift) by a conversion factor of 2.0 and adding that amount to perpetual license bookings. The conversion factor of 2.0 is an estimate that is derived from an analysis of our historical bookings and may change over time. Management uses perpetual license equivalent bookings to understand our performance, including our software growth and SaaS/perpetual license mix. This metric should not be viewed in isolation from other operating metrics that we make available to investors. The New Perpetual License Equivalent Bookings calculation was adjusted in Q4 FY2020 for the full year to exclude bookings from maintenance conversion, except for uplift.
Cyber Intelligence Recurring and Nonrecurring Revenue Metrics
Recurring revenue, on both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis, primarily consists of initial and renewal support, subscription software licenses, and SaaS in certain limited transactions.
Nonrecurring revenue, on both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis, primarily consists of our perpetual licenses, long-term projects including software customizations that are recognized over time using a percentage of completion (“POC”) method, consulting, implementation and installation services, training, and hardware.
We believe that recurring and nonrecurring revenue provide investors with useful insight into the nature and sustainability of our revenue streams. The recurrence of these revenue streams in future periods depends on a number of factors including contractual periods and customers' renewal decisions. Please see “Revenue adjustments” above for an explanation for why we present these revenue numbers on both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization expense, revenue adjustments, restructuring expenses, acquisition expenses, and other expenses excluded from our non-GAAP financial measures as described above. We believe that adjusted EBITDA is also commonly used by investors to evaluate operating performance between companies because it helps reduce variability caused by differences in capital structures, income taxes, stock-based compensation, accounting policies, and depreciation and amortization policies. Adjusted EBITDA is also used by credit rating agencies, lenders, and other parties to evaluate our creditworthiness.
Net Debt
Net Debt is a non-GAAP measure defined as the sum of long-term and short-term debt on our consolidated balance sheet, excluding unamortized discounts and issuance costs, less the sum of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, restricted cash equivalents, restricted bank time deposits, and restricted investments (including long-term portions), and short-term investments. We use this non-GAAP financial measure to help evaluate our capital structure, financial leverage, and our ability to reduce debt and to fund investing and financing activities, and believe that it provides useful information to investors.
Supplemental Information About Constant Currency
Because we operate on a global basis and transact business in many currencies, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates can affect our consolidated U.S. dollar operating results. To facilitate the assessment of our performance excluding the effect of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, we calculate our GAAP and non-GAAP revenue, cost of revenue, and operating expenses on both an as-reported basis and a constant currency basis, allowing for comparison of results between periods as if foreign currency exchange rates had remained constant. We perform our constant currency calculations by translating current-period foreign currency results into U.S. dollars using prior-period average foreign currency exchange rates or hedge rates, as applicable, rather than current period exchange rates. We believe that constant currency measures, which exclude the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, facilitate the assessment of underlying business trends.
Unless otherwise indicated, our financial outlook for revenue, operating margin, and diluted earnings per share, which is provided on a non-GAAP basis, reflects foreign currency exchange rates approximately consistent with rates in effect when the outlook is provided.
We also incur foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the revaluation and settlement of monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency. We periodically report our historical non-GAAP diluted net income per share both inclusive and exclusive of these net foreign exchange gains or losses. Our financial outlook for diluted earnings per share includes net foreign exchange gains or losses incurred to date, if any, but does not include potential future gains or losses.
