BROCADE REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FISCAL YEAR 2006 RESULTS
Q4 06 RECORD REVENUE OF $208.8 MILLION INCREASES 11% SEQUENTIALLY AND
44% YEAR-OVER-YEAR
SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Brocade Communications
Systems, Inc. (Brocade(R)) (Nasdaq: BRCD) today reported financial results for
its fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006 (Q4 06), which ended October 28, 2006.
Revenues for Q4 06 were a record $208.8 million. Revenues for Q4 06 increased
11% from $188.9 million reported in the third quarter of fiscal year 2006 (Q3
06) and increased 44% from $145.5 million reported in the fourth quarter of
fiscal year 2005 (Q4 05). Revenues for fiscal year 2006 (FY 06) were $750.6
million, an increase of 31% from $574.1 million reported in fiscal year 2005
(FY 05).
Commenting on the Company's fourth quarter and fiscal year 2006 results,
Michael Klayko, Brocade CEO, said, "Our fourth quarter was outstanding and a
very strong finish to fiscal 2006. Throughout the year we have continued to
execute well and I am proud of our team. Overall, we gained share across our
product family and solidified our leadership position. The success in our
Storage Area Network (SAN) business has helped us to drive returns this year
while at the same time allowing us to invest for future growth."
Reporting on a GAAP basis, net income for Q4 06 was $20.0 million, or $0.07
per share basic and diluted. This compares to GAAP net income for Q3 06 of $24.5
million, or $0.09 per share basic and diluted, and GAAP net income for Q4 05 of
$1.1 million, or $0.00 per share basic and diluted. Net income for FY 06 was
$67.6 million, or $0.25 per share basic and diluted as compared to net income
for FY 05 of $43.1 million, or $0.16 per share basic and diluted.
Non-GAAP net income for Q4 06 was $39.4 million or $0.15 per share basic and
$0.14 per share diluted, as compared to non-GAAP net income for Q3 06 of $31.0
million, or $0.11 per share basic and diluted, and non-GAAP net income for Q4 05
of $19.0 million, or $0.07 per share basic and diluted. Non-GAAP net income for
FY 06 was $122.8 million, or $0.46 per share basic and $0.45 per share diluted
as compared to non-GAAP net income for FY 05 of $69.3 million, or $0.26 per
share basic and diluted. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in
addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be
considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. A detailed
reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP information is contained in the tables
included herein.
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year balances in order to
conform to the current year presentation.
Q4 06 Financial Highlights
-- Q4 06 non-GAAP gross margin was 62.1%, compared to non-GAAP gross margin
of 60.2% in Q3 06 and 55.3% in Q4 05.
-- Q4 06 non-GAAP operating margin was 21.5%, compared to non-GAAP operating
margin of 17.4% in Q3 06 and non-GAAP operating margin of 9.2% in Q4 05.
-- Q4 06 cash flow from operations was $52.8 million, compared to $26.3
million in Q3 06 and $39.4 million in Q4 05. Historically, the Company's
cash flows are seasonally stronger in the second and fourth fiscal
quarters and seasonally weaker in the first and third fiscal quarters due
to the timing of employee compensation programs.
-- Cash and investments at the end of Q4 06 were $582.6 million. This
compares to the cash and cash equivalents and investments balance,
including restricted short-term investments, net of the Company's
convertible debt at the end of each period, of $518.6 million and $485.5
million as of the end of Q3 06 and Q4 05, respectively. In Q4 06, the
Company redeemed its outstanding 2% convertible notes using restricted
short-term investments and no longer has outstanding debt.
-- Day sales outstanding in accounts receivable for Q4'06 were 43 days,
compared to 38 days in Q3 06 and 44 days in Q4 05.
-- For Q4 06, three customers, EMC, HP, and IBM, each accounted for 10% or
more of total revenues and together represented approximately 74% of
total revenues. The same three customers each accounted for 10% or more
of total revenues and together represented approximately 74% in Q3 06 and
71% in Q4 05 of total revenues.
-- As of October 28, 2006, the Company had 1,440 employees, compared with
1,399 employees as of July 29, 2006 and 1,160 employees as of October 29,
2005.
Q4 06 Business Highlights
During the quarter, news announcements highlighted the Company's continued
progress of its strategy for growth and diversification through product and
technology leadership.
-- Brocade announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement to
acquire McDATA Corporation. The acquisition is subject to obtaining
approval from both Brocade and McDATA stockholders, regulatory approvals
and certain other closing conditions.
-- Brocade announced two new executive appointments - Regan McGrath, as Vice
President of North America Sales and Senya Rahmil as Vice President of
Worldwide Customer Support. The new VP appointments underscore the
Company's continued and growing commitment to customer satisfaction.
-- Brocade introduced more than 20 new and enhanced products and services
that allow customers to more efficiently access corporate information,
consolidate resources, and manage their data center infrastructure. These
new and enhanced products cross over Brocade's SAN solutions, Brocade's
file management software solutions that address the emerging File Area
Network (FAN) market segment, and Brocade's growing professional services
business.
-- Brocade announced successful completion of the latest FICON qualification
for the Brocade SilkWorm(R) 48000 and Brocade SilkWorm(R) 4100.
-- Brocade was recognized for outstanding innovation in SAN product design,
delivering on its commitment to offer the most high-performance and
innovative storage networking products in the industry. The Brocade
SilkWorm(R) 4900 Switch claimed the Big Bytes award for the best storage
networking product in the SAN category.
-- Brocade announced the expansion of the Brocade SAN Health family. The
expanded SAN Health family provides SAN administrators with highly

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and the related conference call contain non-GAAP
financial measures. In evaluating the Company's performance, management uses
certain non-GAAP financial measures to supplement consolidated financial
statements prepared under GAAP.
Non-GAAP Earnings Measure. Management believes that the non-GAAP net income
measure used in this press release allows management to gain a better
understanding of the Company's comparative operating performance from
period-to-period and to its competitors' operating results. Management also
believes this non-GAAP measure helps indicate the Company baseline performance
before gains, losses or charges that are considered by management to be outside
on-going operating results. Accordingly, management uses this non-GAAP measure
for planning and forecasting of future periods and in making decisions regarding
operations performance and the allocation of resources. Management believes this
non-GAAP earnings measure, when read in conjunction with the Company's GAAP
financials, provides useful information to investors by offering:
-- the ability to make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of the
Company's on-going operating results;
-- the ability to better identify trends in the Company's underlying
business and perform related trend analysis;
-- a better understanding of how management plans and measures the Company's
underlying business; and
-- an easier way to compare the Company's most recent results of operations
against investor and analyst financial models.
Management excludes certain gains or losses and benefits or costs in
determining non-GAAP net income that are the result of infrequent events, or
arose outside the ordinary course of our continuing operations. Management
believes that it is appropriate to evaluate the Company's operating performance
by excluding those items that are not indicative of ongoing operating results or
limit comparability. Such items include: (i) gains or losses on disposition of
marketable or equity investments, (ii) acquisition and integration related
expenses, (iii) costs associated with facilities lease losses, severance or
restructurings, (iv) gains or losses as well as call premium on debt redemption,
(v) legal fees associated with indemnification obligations, and costs of the
related SEC investigation and internal review, (vi) SEC settlement provision,
(vii) one-time warranty benefit, and (viii) fees and taxes related to the
repatriation of foreign earnings under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.
Management also excludes the following non-cash charges in determining
non-GAAP net income: (i) stock-based compensation, (ii) amortization of
purchased intangible assets and (iii) in-process research and development.
Because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and
the variety of award types, management believes that the exclusion of
stock-based compensation allows for more accurate comparisons of our operating
results to our peer companies. Further, management believes that excluding
stock-based compensation expense allows for a more accurate comparison of our
financial results to previous periods during which our equity-based awards were
not required to be reflected on our income statement. Management believes that
the expense associated with the amortization of acquisition-related intangible
assets is appropriate to be excluded because a significant portion of the
purchase price for acquisitions may be allocated to intangible assets that have
short lives and exclusion of the amortization expense allows comparisons of
operating results that are consistent over time for both the Company's newly
acquired and long-held businesses. In addition, management believes it is
appropriate to exclude the in-process research and development expenses which
are related to acquisitions as opposed to the Company's ongoing operations.
Finally, management believes that it is appropriate to exclude the tax
effects of the items noted above in order to present a more meaningful measure
on Non-GAAP net income.
General. These non-GAAP measures have limitations, however, because they do
not include all items of income and expense that impact the Company. Management
compensates for these limitations by also considering the Company's GAAP
results. The non-GAAP financial measures the Company uses are not prepared in
accordance with, and should not be considered an alternative to, measurements
required by GAAP, such as operating income, net income and income per share, and
should not be considered measures of the Company's liquidity. The presentation
of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as
a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measures. In addition, these
non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures reported
by other companies.
