MicroStrategy Announces Record Revenues of $351 Million in 2007
20th Consecutive Quarter of Year-Over-Year Revenue Growth
MCLEAN, Va., (February 01, 2008) –
MicroStrategy® Incorporated (Nasdaq: MSTR – News), a leading worldwide provider of business intelligence software, today announced financial results for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 (the fourth quarter of its 2007 fiscal year).
Fourth quarter 2007 revenue was $97.6 million versus $92.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2006, a 5% increase. This marked the twentieth consecutive quarter of year-over-year revenue growth. Revenue for the full year 2007 was $350.7 million versus $313.8 million for the full year 2006, a 12% increase. Product licenses revenue for the fourth quarter of 2007 was $31.7 million versus $36.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2006, a 13% decrease. Product support, services and other revenues for the fourth quarter of 2007 were $65.9 million versus $55.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2006, an 18% increase. Revenues from non-core operations, which consist of MicroStrategy’s Alarm.com subsidiary and Angel.com business unit, were $4.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2007 compared to $2.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2006.
Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2007 were $57.0 million versus $48.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2006, a 19% increase. The increase in fourth quarter operating expenses was primarily due to an increase in the worldwide employee headcount of our core business intelligence (BI) business and reflects the continued expansion in the fourth quarter of 2007 of our worldwide sales and services organization and administrative and IT support functions. Operating expenses related to Alarm.com and Angel.com were $5.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 compared to $2.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2006, a 102% increase. This increase in non-core operating expenses was primarily due to a bad debt allowance of $2.1 million related to our Alarm.com subsidiary recorded during the fourth quarter of 2007. Fourth quarter 2007 consolidated income from operations was $26.6 million, or 27% of revenue, versus $32.0 million, or 35% of revenue, for the fourth quarter of 2006. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2007 was $17.7 million, or $1.41 per share on a diluted basis, compared to $22.4 million, or $1.68 per share on a diluted basis, for the fourth quarter of 2006.
During the fourth quarter of 2007, MicroStrategy repurchased 252,675 shares of its class A common stock for $26.4 million at an average price per share of $104.46, including broker commissions. As of December 31, 2007, MicroStrategy had 9,183,396 shares of class A common stock and 2,770,244 shares of class B common stock outstanding.
“During 2007, we recruited a substantial number of talented employees, significantly augmented our global business capacity, and welcomed many new customers,” said Arthur S. Locke, III, MicroStrategy’s Executive Vice President, Finance & Chief Financial Officer. “MicroStrategy achieved record revenues in the fourth quarter and sustained a high operating margin while continuing to expand its global reach. We are delighted with the progress we have made this past year and look forward to leveraging our strengths as an independent business intelligence company in 2008.”
