Nuance Announces Fourth Fiscal Quarter 2007 Results
Strong Demand for Speech Solutions, Continued Operational
Performance and Synergies from Acquisitions Fuel Results above
Expectations
BURLINGTON, Mass., November 15, 2007
Nuance Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: NUAN) today announced
financial results for the fourth fiscal quarter ended September
30, 2007. Nuance reported revenues of $179.9 million in the
quarter ended September 30, 2007, a 40 percent increase over
revenues of $128.1 million in the quarter ended September 30,
2006. On a GAAP basis, Nuance recognized a net loss of $3.4
million, or $(0.02) per share, in the quarter ended September
30, 2007, compared with a net loss of $7.2 million, or $(0.04)
per share, in the quarter ended September 30, 2006. xseries
In addition to using GAAP results in evaluating the
business, management also believes it is useful to evaluate
results using non-GAAP measures. Using a non-GAAP measure, the
Company reported non-GAAP revenue of approximately $187.2
million, up 41 percent from the same period last year. Using a
non-GAAP measure, Nuance reported non-GAAP net income of $37.0
million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the period ending
September 30, 2007, compared to non-GAAP net income of $26.3
million, or $0.14 per diluted share, in the quarter ended
September 30, 2006. maxtor
These GAAP figures exclude revenues lost to purchase
accounting in conjunction with the Company¯ acquisition of
BeVocal, Inc., VoiceSignal Technologies, Inc. and Tegic
Communications. The non-GAAP net income amount excludes
non-cash taxes and interest, amortization of intangible assets,
non-cash amortization of stock-based compensation, and
acquisition-related transition and integration costs and
charges. See ËAAP to non-GAAP Reconciliation below for
further information on the Company¯ non-GAAP measures. data storage
Øuance ended 2007 on a particularly high note,
delivering robust performance in several major product areas
and producing strong organic revenue growth, said Paul Ricci,
chairman and CEO of Nuance. Ùur results in the fourth
quarter reflect favorable trends and momentum the Company
experienced throughout 2007. In particular, we have witnessed
strong demand from customers and partners across our diverse
speech markets, improved operational performance through
expense discipline and operating leverage, and enjoyed
strategic and operational synergies from recent acquisitions.
Combined, these factors delivered results for the quarter and
the year above expectations and positioned Nuance for continued
achievement in 2008. hitachi

"Computer industry analysts estimate that some 60 percent of all corporate data exists only on desktop and laptop computers, " said Walter Scott, CEO of Acronis. "Incorporating Acronis True Image with New Mexico Software backup server is the ideal solution to capture that corporate data and ensure that it is not lost. While traditional server backups are effective for protecting server data, every company should have a combination of server and workstation backup plans."
