Management Commentary

"The results of the fourth quarter show that ClickSoftware has turned the corner. Strong execution was driven by a record number of new customers, growing traction for our cloud-based SaaS offering and increased market demand for mobility products," said Dr. Moshe BenBassat, ClickSoftware's Founder and CEO. "The win-rate against the competition was quite convincing, specifically for large clients. We added 19 new customers during the fourth quarter, 10 of which selected our cloud-based solution. For the full year of 2013, we had 54 new customer wins, which is 50% above the 34 new customers we had in 2012. The trend of large enterprise organizations considering a SaaS offering is on the rise and our ability to offer a best-of-breed solution, both on premise and in the cloud, is a key competitive advantage for ClickSoftware."

"While the shift to the cloud impacted up-front license revenues in 2013, we saw a significant increase in our base of recurring cloud revenues and expect greater visibility in 2014 as the stream continues to grow.  We have a strong pipeline of new business opportunities for the year ahead and a healthy mix of perpetual and SaaS-based opportunities going forward. We continue to introduce new innovations in the cloud, mobile and the artificial intelligence (ClickButler) technologies that serve to ensure our competitive," added Dr. Moshe BenBassat.

Dr. BenBassat concluded, "Aiming at continuous agility, alignment and efficiency, we have made an organizational change that will empower our territories operations to be more autonomous in their processes and decision making, achieving our Company goals effectively, efficiently and with high velocity. I am pleased to announce the promotion of two ClickSoftware's veterans: Mr. Zvi Piritz to President of EMEA & APAC, and Mr. Stephen Timms to President of Americas."

Financial Outlook

For 2014, the Company currently expects top line growth of 8% to 11%, and to achieve revenues in the $111 to $115 million range. This outlook is based on approximately $42.7 million in backlog and deferred revenues, current visibility into a growing sales pipeline and expected expansion into new territories and industry verticals. Non-GAAP fully diluted earnings per share for 2014 is expected to be in the range of $0.06 to $0.12, which excludes share-based compensation costs of approximately $0.09, and deferred taxes expense of approximately $0.01 per fully diluted share. GAAP fully diluted earnings per share is expected to be in the range of ($0.04) to $0.02.
