8x8 Announces Third Quarter Fiscal 2007 Results
Company Achieves Monthly Cash Flow Positive Goal Three Months Ahead of Forecast
SANTA CLARA, Calif., -- February 1, 2007 -- 8x8, Inc. (Nasdaq: EGHT), provider of Packet8 (www.packet8.net
) broadband Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and videophone communication services, today announced financial results for its third quarter of fiscal 2007 ended December 31, 2006.Revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 were $13.2 million, compared with $13.2 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 and $8.5 million for the same period of the prior year, an annual increase of 56%. The net loss for the quarter was $3.1 million or $0.05 per share, compared with a net loss of $2.7 million, or $0.04 per share for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 and a net loss of $6.8 million or $0.12 per share for the same period last year, a decrease in net loss of 55% over the prior year period. Total revenues for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, were $38.7 million and $21.6 million, respectively. Net losses for the nine month periods ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, were $11.5 million, or $0.19 per share, and $17.5 million, or $0.32 per share, respectively.
At the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2007, cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, and restricted cash totaled $12.4 million, and the company generated approximately $373,000 in cash during the month of December, three months ahead of the Company's previously stated forecast. The Company burned approximately $2.1M of cash in the third fiscal quarter, compared to $3.3M in the prior quarter and $5.2M in the June quarter.
The net loss in the third fiscal quarter was impacted by aggressive discounting and promotions, as well as $428,000 of employee stock-based compensation expense due to the adoption of Statement of Financial Account Standards No. 123(R), not present in the year-ago period. Excluding the impact of stock option expenses, the third quarter non-GAAP net loss was approximately $2.6 million. Gross margin for the December quarter was 52% compared to 21% for the same period last year.
"The monthly cash growth is a first and a huge milestone for 8x8 as a service provider, and we believe we are the first publicly traded, pure play Voice over IP service provider to achieve this accomplishment," said 8x8 Chairman and CEO Bryan Martin. "While our cash growth during the month of December was largely the result of limited inventory purchases, our cash flow on a steady state basis is now very close to break even, and within the range of our monthly discretionary spending on advertising and other marketing-related functions. We are very pleased that our diversified strategy of focusing on higher margin business service customers with our unique and patent-protected Packet8 Virtual Office technologies and video communication technologies are yielding these landmark results."
"By focusing on Packet8 Virtual Office sales, which have significantly higher margins and lower churn rates than residential services, we are capitalizing on the unique solutions that our Virtual Office services afford small and medium sized businesses. Due to this transition, total sequential quarterly revenue growth slowed, though quarterly revenue from both Virtual Office and video services increased sequentially by 30% and 22%, respectively, on target with our business model. In response to the increased interest in our business services, we more than doubled our direct sales force focused on these channels during the month of December," concluded Mr. Martin.
Early last month, the Company announced that over 6,000 U.S. based companies, ranging in size from three to 250 employees, now subscribe to the Packet8 Virtual Office suite of business services.
8x8 will host a conference call today at 9:00 a.m. ET to discuss its third fiscal quarter results. The event and replays of the call can be accessed from the events page of 8x8's corporate website at http://www.8x8.com
