“Helping companies – and entire industries – work smarter and more efficiently is the guiding principle on which Determine was founded. We are now aggressively expanding the application of those two concepts across the company as we position for increased success, most notably in our customer acquisition and management teams.

Recently, Determine announced that Gérard Dahan has taken over leadership of worldwide marketing, sales and customer management as Determine’s newly named Global Chief Revenue and Marketing Officer. This is one part of our diligence in reshaping and streamlining our ecosystem of stakeholders, roles, responsibilities, KPIs and compensation. While it’s still early in the process, the entire company is rallying around the new Sales, Marketing and Customer Management structure to support its success.

In terms of fiscal efficiency, Determine has been vigorously eliminating costs, including over $2 million in annual expenses across the board since mid-year. The company will continue to make additional cost management adjustments opportunistically.

We are continuing to efficiently and effectively deliver the Determine message to prospects and customers who seek to derive bottom-line value from our best-in-class modular Source-to-Pay and Enterprise Contract Management Solutions.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), this press release and the accompanying tables contain certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share, which we believe are helpful in understanding our past financial performance and future results. For reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, please see the section of the accompanying tables titled, “GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations”. Our non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The difference between GAAP and non-GAAP gross profit is the elimination of the amortization of acquisition related intangibles, stock based compensation and severance expense from the costs of revenue. Non-GAAP net loss excludes the non-GAAP gross profit items as well as acquisition related costs.

Our management regularly uses our supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand and manage our business and forecast future periods; as such, we believe it is useful for investors to understand the effects of these items on our total operations. Further, please note that our non-GAAP revenue is intended to reflect the full amount of revenues that would have been otherwise recorded by the acquired entities of Iasta and b-pack, while our non-GAAP gross profit also excludes the amortization of intangibles that occurred due to the acquisition of the entities of Iasta and b-pack.

Annualized Bookings is an operating measure not derived from the company’s revenues or any other amounts presented in accordance with GAAP in the company’s statement of income, balance sheet or statement of cash flows or other equivalent statements.
