Kenexa (Nasdaq: KNXA), a global provider of business solutions for human resources, today announced operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2010.

For the third quarter of 2010, Kenexa reported total revenue of $50.8 million, an increase of 26% compared to $40.3 million for the third quarter of 2009. Within total revenue, subscription revenue was $39.8 million for the third quarter of 2010, an increase of 20% compared with $33.2 million in the third quarter of 2009. Professional services and other revenue was $11.0 million for the third quarter of 2010, an increase of 55% compared to $7.1 million for the third quarter of 2009.

“Kenexa’s growing business momentum continued in the third quarter, leading to revenue and profitability that were ahead of our expectations. Each area of our business delivered a solid performance, including our software, content and RPO business,” said Rudy Karsan, Chief Executive Officer of Kenexa. “While we continue to have a cautious stance on the pace of economic recovery, we are encouraged by Kenexa’s growing success with the world’s largest organizations. Customer interest levels remain high and we saw a significant increase in attendance at our World Conference in September, the combination of which provides us with optimism regarding Kenexa’s outlook.”

Karsan added, “We are excited to have successfully completed the cash tender process related to the acquisition of Salary.com, which establishes Kenexa as the leading provider of on-demand compensation management solutions. Kenexa is already highly differentiated based on our unique business model focused on delivering a broad range of best-in-class solutions, proprietary content, services and RPO. The addition of Salary.com’s software and content is highly synergistic with Kenexa’s existing suite of solutions and further differentiates our value proposition to large, global organizations.”

Non-GAAP income from operations, which excludes share-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangibles and fees related to our acquisitions was $4.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010, above the Company’s guidance of $3.4 million to $3.6 million and compared to $4.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Non-GAAP net income available to common shareholders, which excludes the items listed above, was $3.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $4.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Non-GAAP net income available to common shareholders was $0.16 per diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 2010, above the Company’s guidance of $0.12 to $0.13 and compared to $0.18 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2009.

Kenexa’s income from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2010, determined in accordance with GAAP, was $1.5 million, compared to $1.9 million for the same period of 2009. GAAP net income allocable to common shareholders was approximately $150,000, or $0.01 per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to net income of $1.6 million, or $0.07 per diluted share in the same period of 2009.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results has been provided in the financial statement tables included at the end of this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Kenexa had cash, cash equivalents and investments of $90.4 million at September 30, 2010, an increase from $65.5 million at the end of the prior quarter. The increase in cash was primarily the result of drawing $25 million against a line of credit to partially fund the acquisition of Salary.com shortly after the close of the quarter. The Company also generated cash from operations of $6.6 million during the third quarter, which was partially offset by capital expenditures and the purchase of CHPD. Deferred revenue was $58.7 million at September 30, 2010, an increase of 33% from September 30, 2009.

On October 1, 2010, Kenexa announced the completion of the acquisition of Salary.com. In consideration of the acquisition, Kenexa used approximately $55 million of cash and approximately $25 million of long-term debt. The Company’s fourth quarter 2010 balance sheet will reflect the consideration used for the Salary.com acquisition.

Other Third Quarter and Recent Highlights

  • More than 40 “preferred partner” customers were added during the quarter (defined as customers that spend more than $50,000 annually).
  • The average annual revenue from the Company’s top 80 customers was greater than $1.2 million, an increase from the over $1.1 million level in the prior quarter.
  • Kenexa 2x Mobile™ was recognized as a Top HR Product of the Year by Human Resource Executive® magazine. Winners were determined based on several factors: how innovative the product is, how much value it adds to the HR function, ease of use, and whether the product delivers on its promises.
  • Kenexa hosted its 2010 Kenexa World Conference in Philadelphia during September. The Company had record attendance for its annual users group meeting, with participation up at 2.5 times on a year-over-year basis.

Business Outlook

Based on information as of today, November 2, 2010, the Company is issuing financial guidance as follows:

Fourth Quarter 2010*: The Company expects non-GAAP revenue to be $58 million to $60 million, which includes contribution of approximately $8 million to $9 million from Salary.com, and non-GAAP operating income to be $6.0 million to $6.9 million. Assuming an effective tax rate for reporting purposes of approximately 20% and approximately 23.6 million shares outstanding, Kenexa expects its non-GAAP net income per diluted share to be $0.19 to $0.22.

Full Year 2010*: The Company expects non-GAAP revenue to be $193 million to $195 million, which includes contribution of approximately $8 million to $9 million from Salary.com, and non-GAAP operating income to be $16.3 million to $17.2 million. Assuming an effective tax rate for reporting purposes of approximately 20% and approximately 23.5 million shares outstanding, Kenexa expects its non-GAAP net income per diluted share to be $0.55 to $0.59.

Full Year 2011*: The Company expects non-GAAP revenue to be $235 million to $245 million, which assumes a contribution from Salary.com in the low-to-mid $30 million range, and non-GAAP operating income to be $19.0 million to $27.0 million. Assuming an effective tax rate for reporting purposes of approximately 20% and approximately 24 million shares outstanding, Kenexa expects its non-GAAP net income per diluted share to be $0.58 to $0.85.

* Kenexa is not providing guidance on GAAP revenue at this time due to the uncertainty around its acquired deferred revenue analysis. Kenexa’s non-GAAP results will exclude stock based compensation expense, amortization of intangibles associated with acquisitions, fees related to closing the Salary.com acquisition and the purchase accounting reduction to Salary.com’s revenue.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes certain “forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other statements contained in this press release that are not historical facts and statements identified by words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates" or words of similar meaning. These statements may contain, among other things, guidance as to future revenue and earnings, operations, expected benefits from acquisitions, prospects of the business generally, intellectual property and the development of products. These statements are based on our current beliefs or expectations and are inherently subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those set forth under the caption "Risk Factors" in Kenexa’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and as revised or supplemented by Kenexa’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations due to changes in global political, economic, business, competitive, market and regulatory factors, Kenexa’s ability to implement business and acquisition strategies or to complete or integrate acquisitions. Kenexa does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this document as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures. Kenexa believes that non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Kenexa’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP results to compare the Company’s performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, for purposes of determining executive incentive compensation, and for budget and planning purposes. These measures are used in monthly financial reports prepared for management and in quarterly financial reports presented to the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing its financial measures with other companies in the Company’s industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.

Management of the Company does not consider such non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to such measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of such non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which charges are excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures.

In order to compensate for these limitations, management of the Company presents its non-GAAP financial measures in connection with its GAAP results. Kenexa urges investors and potential investors in the Company’s securities to review the reconciliation of its non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures which it includes in press releases announcing earnings information, including this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.

We have not provided a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the directly comparable GAAP measures because, due primarily to variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections, not all of the information necessary for a quantitative reconciliation is available to us without unreasonable efforts.

Kenexa presents the following non-GAAP financial measures in this press release: non-GAAP income from operations; non-GAAP net income available to common shareholders’; non-GAAP gross profit; non-GAAP sales and marketing expense; non-GAAP general and administrative expense; non-GAAP research and development expense; non-GAAP operating margin, and non-GAAP net income per diluted share as described below.

The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures exclude the following:

Share-based compensation expense. Share-based compensation expense consists of expenses for stock options and stock awards that the Company began recording in accordance with ASC 718 during the first quarter of 2006. Share-based compensation was $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Share-based compensation expenses are excluded in the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures because share-based compensation amounts are difficult to forecast. This is due in part to the magnitude of the charges which depends upon the volume and timing of stock option grants, which are unpredictable and can vary dramatically from period to period, and external factors such as interest rates and the trading price and volatility of the Company’s common stock. The Company believes that this exclusion provides meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operating results because these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate the comparison of results for future periods with results from past periods. The dilutive effect of all outstanding options is included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share on both a GAAP and a non-GAAP basis.

Amortization of acquired intangible assets. In accordance with GAAP, operating expenses include amortization of acquired intangible assets which are amortized over the estimated useful lives of such assets. Amortization of acquired intangible assets was $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010, and $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Amortization of acquired intangible assets is excluded from the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures because the Company believes that such exclusion facilitates comparisons to its historical operating results and to the results of other companies in the same industry, which have their own unique acquisition histories.

Acquisition-related fees. In accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, acquisition-related fees including advisory, legal, accounting and other professional fees are reported as expense in the periods in which the costs are incurred and the services are received. Acquisition-related fees of $0.9 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2010 include legal, travel, and other fees not expected to reoccur from the acquisitions of Salary.com and CHPD. Acquisition-related fees are excluded in the non-GAAP financial measures because the Company believes that such exclusion facilitates comparisons to its historical operating results and to the results of other companies in the same industry, which have their own unique acquisition histories.

Accretion of variable interest entity. In accordance with ASC 810, Variable Interest Entities, the Chinese joint venture is subject to periodic adjustment in its fair market value. The accretion of the variable interest entity of $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 is excluded in the non-GAAP financial measures because the Company believes that such exclusion facilitates comparisons to its historical operating results and to the results of other companies in the same industry, which have their own unique acquisition histories.
