Financial Highlights for Q2 2015, compared with the Second Quarter of 2014:  

• Total revenue increased by 47% to $12.2 million
• Total non-GAAP revenue increased by 49% to $12.5 million*
• Total license revenue grew 53% to $6.8 million
• Net loss reduced by 31% to $0.8 million

"The expansion of Attunity's Big Data management platform, our strong offering for the cloud and the ongoing investments in the sales and marketing teams, resulted in another quarter of record revenue," said Shimon Alon, Chairman and CEO of Attunity. "Looking ahead, we plan to keep investing in strategic partnerships with leading Cloud and Big Data providers to capitalize on the large opportunity within these rapidly growing markets."

Big Data Management

In the second quarter, Attunity further broadened its Big Data platform, which now provides a comprehensive end-to-end data management solution - from data collection and aggregation, to data movement and automation, to the optimization of different data warehouses. As a result, enterprise customers and strategic partners alike have recognized the value that Attunity and each of its products provides, as well as the synergies they offer in a complete solution.

During the second quarter, Attunity started to monetize Attunity Visibility by securing several large orders, including one from a large computer technology company. We believe that the traction secured to date is a strong testament to the quality and demand for a solution that enables customers to analyze data utilization levels to improve efficiency.

Attunity Replicate continues to drive revenues with key orders. The solution's strong performance amounts to over 50% of the Company's license revenue and we expect it to drive revenue growth throughout fiscal year 2015.

Sales and Marketing

Attunity continues to invest in its sales and marketing teams to drive consistent growth, which has yielded substantially increased productivity, enabling the business to close larger deals in higher volumes. Since the end of the 2014 fiscal year, Attunity has continued to grow the number of its quota-carrying sales people. This progress reflects the Company's long-term strategy to achieve sustainable growth through the addition of sales, business development, lead development and inside sales personnel to garner new customers and expand the footprint within existing accounts.

Sales management produced improved results across all geographical regions and business lines, including the first major deal in Japan.

"In the fast-pace world of Big Data, we are uniquely positioned to take advantage of new opportunities to further grow our business as customers' needs evolve and expand. This includes leveraging our highly scalable solutions and distribution channels," concluded Mr. Alon.

Financial Results for Q2 2015

Total revenues for the second quarter of 2015 increased 47% to $12.2 million, compared with $8.3 million for the same period in 2014. This included license revenues for the second quarter of 2015, which increased 53% to $6.8 million, compared with $4.4 million for the same period in 2014. It also includes maintenance and service revenue, which grew 41% to $5.4 million compared with $3.9 million for the same period in 2014.

Total non-GAAP revenue for the second quarter of 2015 was $12.5 million, compared with $8.4 million for the same period in 2014. This includes non-GAAP maintenance and service revenue of $5.8 million, which grew 46% from the same period in 2014.*

The growth in total revenue is primarily due to the sales team's increased productivity and the procurement of several key deals during the quarter, including revenue from a major cloud services company.

Operating loss for the second quarter of 2015 was $0.7 million, compared with $1.0 million for the same period in 2014. This decrease was primarily due to the increase in revenue.

Non-GAAP operating income for the second quarter of 2015 excludes $2.1 million in expenses and amortization associated with acquisitions and equity-based compensation expenses, compared with $0.8 million of similar expenses, for the same period in 2014.*

Net loss for the second quarter of 2015 was $0.8 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, compared with $1.2 million, or $0.08 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2014.

Non-GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2015 was $1.1 million, compared with a non-GAAP net loss of $0.4 million for the same period in 2014. Non-GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2015 excludes a total of $1.9 million in expenses mostly associated with acquisitions and equity-based compensation expenses, compared with $0.7 million of similar expenses for the same period in 2014.*
