Altigen Communications, Inc. Reports First Quarter Results for Fiscal Year 2020Press Release | 01/22/2020
MILPITAS, CA / ACCESSWIRE / January 22, 2020 / Altigen Communications, Inc. (OTCQB:ATGN), a Silicon Valley based Microsoft ISV and Cloud Solutions provider, announced today its financial results for the first quarter ended December 31, 2019.
Adoption of the New FASB Lease Accounting Standard (ASC 842)
The Company adopted the new ASC 842 lease accounting standard in the first quarter of 2020, which resulted in the recognition of "Operating right-of-use assets" of $1.1 million and "Operating lease liabilities" of $1.1 million, a portion of which is in current liabilities, as of December 31, 2019. There was no impact on the Company's consolidated statements of operations or cash flows. Refer to our upcoming Quarterly Report for further details.
Financial Results
Net Revenue: Total revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 was $2.84 million, compared to $2.66 million in the preceding quarter, and compared to $2.78 million in the prior year quarter. First quarter revenue consisted of:
• Cloud services revenue of $1.7 million, representing an increase of 7% and 17%, respectively, compared to the preceding quarter and the prior year period.
• Software assurance revenue of $722,000, representing an increase of 1% and a decrease of 7%, respectively, compared to the preceding quarter and the prior year period.
• Software license revenue of $204,000, representing a decrease of 23% and 55%, respectively, compared to the previous quarter and the prior year period.
• Professional services and other revenue of $214,000, representing an increase of 145% and 139%, respectively, compared to the preceding quarter and the prior year period.
Gross Margin: Gross margin in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 was 77.6%, compared to 80.3% in the preceding quarter, and compared to 82.9% in the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily driven by higher amortization of capitalized software and acquisition related costs, and to a lesser extent, a shift in our product mix.
GAAP Net Income: For the first quarter of fiscal 2020, GAAP net income was $502,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared with GAAP net income of $290,000, or $0.01 per diluted share in the preceding quarter, and compared with GAAP net income of $612,000, or $0.02 per diluted share in the same period in 2019. As previously disclosed, the Company's fourth quarter fiscal 2019 financial results include a non-cash tax expense of approximately $285,000. The tax expense differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to an increase in the amount of net operating losses expected to be utilized before expiration.
Non-GAAP Net Income: Non-GAAP net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 was $621,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared with non-GAAP net income of $635,000, or $0.02 per diluted share in the preceding quarter, and compared with non-GAAP net income of $736,000, or $0.03 per diluted share in the same period a year ago, representing a slight decrease of 2% and 16%, respectively, primarily as a result of lower gross margin.
GAAP Operating Expenses: GAAP operating expenses totaled $1.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2020, compared with $1.6 million in the preceding quarter, and compared with $1.7 million during the same period a year ago.
Non-GAAP Operating Expenses: Non-GAAP operating expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2020 totaled $1.7 million, compared with $1.6 million in the preceding quarter, and $1.6 million in the comparable period last year.
Balance Sheet
As of December 31, 2019, cash and cash equivalents totaled $4.4 million and working capital was $3.4 million.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In calculating non-GAAP financial measures, we exclude certain items to facilitate a review of the comparability of our core operating performance on a period-to-period basis. The excluded items represent stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expenses and other non-recurring or unusual items that may arise from time to time that we do not consider to be directly related to core operating performance. We use non-GAAP measures to evaluate the core operating performance of our business and to perform financial planning. Since we find these measures to be useful, we believe that investors benefit from seeing results reviewed by management in addition to seeing GAAP results. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with our GAAP financials, provide useful information to investors by facilitating: (i) the comparability of our on-going operating results over the periods presented and (ii) the ability to identify trends in our underlying business.
The following are explanations of each type of adjustment that we incorporate into non-GAAP financial measures:
Stock-based compensation expense
Stock-based compensation expense is impacted by the Company's future hiring and retention needs and the future fair market value of the Company's common stock, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. Furthermore, stock-based compensation expense is generally fixed at the time of grant, then amortized over a period of several years, and generally cannot be changed or influenced by management after the grant. The Company believes that the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense assists investors in the comparisons of operating results to peer companies. Stock-based compensation expense can vary significantly based on the timing, size and nature of awards granted.
Depreciation and amortization expenses
Depreciation and amortization expense includes the depreciation of property and equipment, amortization of capitalized software, as well as amortization of intangible assets. Such expenses are fixed at the time of an acquisition, then amortized over a period of several years. While depreciation and amortization are considered operating costs under GAAP, these expenses primarily represent non-cash current period expense which vary widely from company to company. Management believes that the exclusion of depreciation and amortization expense provides a supplemental measure of the Company's ongoing operating performance.
Other non-recurring or unusual charges
The Company has excluded certain other expenses that are the result of other, non-comparable events to measure operating performance. These events arise outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations. Given the unique nature of the matters relating to these costs, the Company believes these items are not normal operating expenses. For example, legal settlements and judgments vary significantly, in their nature, size and frequency, and, due to this volatility, the Company believes the costs associated with legal settlements and judgments are not normal operating expenses. The Company believes that the exclusion of such out-of-the-ordinary-course amounts provides supplemental information to assist in the comparison of the financial results of the Company from period to period and, therefore, provides useful supplemental information to investors.
Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation. They should be considered as a supplement to, not a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

MILPITAS, CA / ACCESSWIRE / December 3, 2019 / Altigen Communications, Inc. (OTCQB:ATGN), a Silicon Valley based Microsoft ISV and Cloud Solutions provider, announced today its financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended September 30, 2019.
Full Year Fiscal 2019 Financial Highlights
Total revenue of $10.6 million
Cloud revenue of $6.2 million
Operating income was $2.1 million
Cash and cash equivalents of $4.4 million at Sept. 30, 2019
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2019 Financial Highlights
Total revenue of $2.7 million
Cloud revenue of $1.6 million
Operating income was $554,000
"Fiscal 2019 represented a strong financial performance and marked our 3rd consecutive year of profitable growth. As we continued our transition to the cloud, we experienced a 31% decline in one-time revenue. Despite those headwinds, which are a natural by-product of a conversion to monthly recurring revenue, overall company revenue grew by 6%, primarily as a result of our 24% increase in cloud revenue."
"We also achieved a number of important milestones during the year, including extending our service and support agreement with our largest strategic partner, Fiserv; acquiring the customer base of WorkSpace Communications, which will contribute to our growth in the Microsoft UC space; and the launch of a new Direct Routing (SIP trunk) service, the first of many new solutions for Microsoft Teams."
Adoption of the New Revenue Recognition Standard - ASC 606
During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company adopted accounting standard ASC 606, Revenue From Contracts With Customers ("ASC 606"). The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact to our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations presented herein. Refer to our upcoming Annual Report for fiscal year ended September 30, 2019 for further details.
Full Year Fiscal 2019 Financial Results
Net Revenue: For the twelve months ended September 30, 2019, total revenue grew 6% to $10.6 million, in comparison to $10.0 million for fiscal 2018. Revenue consisted of:
Cloud services revenue of $6.2 million, an increase of 24% compared to fiscal 2018.
Software assurance revenue of $2.9 million, a decrease of 9% compared to fiscal 2018.
Software and professional services revenue of $1.5 million, a decrease of 14% compared to fiscal 2018.
Gross Margin: Total gross margin decreased 210 basis points to 81.4% for the twelve-month period of fiscal 2019, compared to 83.5% in the comparable period last year, driven primarily by a shift in our product mix, and to a lesser extent, higher amortization of capitalized software and acquisition related costs.
GAAP Net Income: For fiscal 2019, GAAP net income was $1.9 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared with GAAP net income of $9.8 million, or $0.40 per diluted share for fiscal 2018. The Company's fourth quarter fiscal 2019 financial results include a non-cash tax expense of approximately $285,000. The tax expense differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to an increase in the amount of net operating losses expected to be utilized before expiration. Fiscal 2018 financial results include a one-time non-cash income tax benefit of approximately $8.7 million related to the release of the tax valuation allowance previously recorded against a significant portion of the Company's deferred tax assets.
Non-GAAP Net Income: Non-GAAP net income for fiscal 2019 was $2.5 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared with non-GAAP net income of $1.8 million, or $0.07 per diluted share for fiscal 2018.
GAAP Operating Expenses: For the full-year 2019, GAAP operating expenses decreased $703,000, or 10% to $6.5 million, compared to $7.2 million for the full-year 2018. The decrease was primarily attributable to a $604,000 litigation accrual recognized in the second half of fiscal 2018, in connection with the pending CTI complaint. For additional information, please refer to the Company's filings with the OTCQB over-the-counter market, including the Company's most recent Quarterly Report filed on August 16, 2019.
Non-GAAP Operating Expenses: Non-GAAP operating expenses for fiscal 2019 decreased $236,000, or 4% to $6.3 million, compared to $6.5 million in fiscal 2018.
Fourth Quarter Fiscal Year 2019 Financial Results
Net Revenue: Fourth quarter total revenue was $2.7 million in both fiscal 2019 and 2018. Fourth quarter revenue consisted of:

Software assurance revenue of $712,000, a decrease of 6% compared to a year ago.
Software and professional services revenue of $352,000, a decrease of 33% compared to a year ago.
Gross Margin: Gross margin decreased 280 basis points to 80.3% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, from 83.1% in the prior-year quarter, driven primarily by a shift in our product mix, and to a lesser extent, higher amortization of capitalized software and acquisition related costs.
GAAP Net Income: For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, GAAP net income was $290,000, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared with GAAP net income of $9.0 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, for the comparable period of the prior year. The Company recorded a non-cash tax expense of approximately $285,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The tax expense differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to an increase in the amount of net operating losses expected to be utilized before expiration. The Company's fourth quarter fiscal 2018 financial results include a one-time non-cash income tax benefit of approximately $8.7 million related to the release of the tax valuation allowance recorded against a significant portion of the Company's deferred tax assets.
Non-GAAP Net Income: Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 was $635,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared with non-GAAP net income of $614,000, or $0.02 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018.
GAAP Operating Expenses: GAAP operating expenses for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 decreased $306,000, or 16% to $1.6 million, compared to $1.9 million during the same period a year ago, driven primarily by lower litigation expenses in connection with the pending CTI complaint. For additional information, please refer to the Company's filings with the OTCQB over-the-counter market, including the Company's most recent Quarterly Report filed on August 16, 2019.
Non-GAAP Operating Expenses: Non-GAAP operating expenses for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 totaled $1.6 million, the same as in the prior-year quarter.

Stock-based compensation expense is impacted by the Company's future hiring and retention needs and the future fair market value of the Company's common stock, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. Furthermore, stock-based compensation expense is generally fixed at the time of grant, then amortized over a period of several years, and generally cannot be changed or influenced by management after the grant.

Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation. They should be considered as a supplement to, not a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
