ATLANTA , April 21, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Leading Supply Chain and Omnichannel Commerce Solutions provider Manhattan Associates Inc. (NASDAQ: MANH) today reported record first quarter revenue of $153.9 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020, applying the new revenue recognition standard retrospectively. GAAP diluted earnings per share for Q1 2020 was $0.35 compared to $0.32 in Q1 2019. Non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share for Q1 2020 was $0.40 compared to $0.41 in Q1 2019.
“Q1 was a solid quarter for Manhattan Associates, especially in light of the impact the COVID-19 pandemic is having globally,” said Manhattan Associates president and CEO Eddie Capel. “Our growing cloud business outperformed, with noticeable revenue growth and continued strength in overall bookings. Despite near-term uncertainty, we continue to see growing enthusiasm for our unified supply chain and omnichannel commerce solutions as companies around the world are beginning to realize more than ever that the modern supply chain is absolutely mission-critical and strategically important.”Regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, Mr. Capel added, “We are seeing some shifts in the expected timing of deal closings from Q2 to the second half of the year and delays of some of our services projects. But in general, we are not seeing cancelations and are seeing a larger pipeline of opportunities for the balance of the year versus a quarter ago. During this period of greater uncertainty, we are focusing first and foremost on the health and safety of our employees, while continuing to best serve our customers in a virtual environment. At the same time, we are taking appropriate actions, such as previously announced expense management strategies, that we believe will allow us to manage through this volatile period while ensuring we are best-positioned to capitalize on the market opportunities when we return to a more normal operating environment.”“We remain confident on our long-term growth trajectory,” Mr. Capel concluded, “but we are taking a conservative approach as we position the business in the near term.” Mr. Capel stated that, “As such, we are updating our full-year financial guidance to reflect what we know today and with the visibility we have for the remainder of the year.”FIRST QUARTER 2020 FINANCIAL SUMMARY:Consolidated total revenue was $153.9 million in Q1 2020, compared to $148.4 million in Q1 2019.Cloud subscription revenue was $17.3 million in Q1 2020, compared to $7.9 million in Q1 2019.License revenue was $9.7 million in Q1 2020, compared to $12.4 million in Q1 2019.Service revenue was $87.4 million in Q1 2020, compared to $88.6 million in Q1 2019.GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.35 in Q1 2020 compared to $0.32 in Q1 2019.Adjusted diluted earnings per share, a non-GAAP measure, was $0.40 in Q1 2020, compared to $0.41 in Q1 2019.GAAP operating income was $24.2 million in Q1 2020, compared to $28.3 million in Q1 2019.Adjusted operating income, a non-GAAP measure, was $31.9 million in Q1 2020, compared to $35.6 million in Q1 2019.Cash flow from operations was $11.6 million for Q1 2020, compared to $35.2 million for Q1 2019.

These measures are not in accordance with, or alternatives to, GAAP, and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. The Company believes the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures facilitates investors’ ability to understand and compare the Company’s results and guidance, because the measures provide supplemental information in evaluating the operating results of its business, as distinct from results that include items not indicative of ongoing operating results, and because the Company believes its peers typically publish similar non-GAAP measures. This release should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 8-K earnings release filing for the three months ended March 31, 2020.Non-GAAP adjusted operating income and margin, adjusted income tax provision, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share exclude the impact of equity-based compensation, acquisition-related costs and the amortization of these costs, (from time to time) restructuring charges – all net of income tax effects. We include reconciliations of the Company’s GAAP financial measures to non-GAAP adjustments in the supplemental information attached to this release.ABOUT MANHATTAN ASSOCIATESManhattan Associates is a technology leader in supply chain and omnichannel commerce.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION1. Corporate Response to COVID-19:Our results for the first quarter were in line with our internal expectations due to continued demand for our cloud-based supply chain and omnichannel commerce solutions. However, the impacts of global macroeconomic disruption directly related to coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) on our business are currently uncertain. Therefore, we are taking a conservative approach and proactive measures to position our company for uncertainty in the near-term while maintaining flexibility to extend our market-leading position when a normalization of business activity resumes. As previously announced, effective April 1, 2020, we reduced the salaries of the chief executive officer and the board of directors by 25%, the chief financial officer by 15%, and other named executive officers by 10%; and suspended our share repurchase program. We are also aggressively reducing operating expenses globally.Importantly, we believe these expense reductions will not materially impact our ability to support our customers or make key investments in research and development to further extend our competitive positioning. We will continue to actively monitor the situation and may take further actions that modify our business operations as may be required by federal, state or local authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, and partners.2.
