    Fiscal 2021 Third Quarter Financial Guidance

    For the third quarter of fiscal 2021 ending March 31, 2021, eGain expects:

    • SaaS revenue of between $15.8 million to $16.3 million.
    • Total revenue of between $18.3 million to $18.8 million.
    • GAAP net loss of $500,000 to $1.5 million, or $(0.02) to $(0.05) per share.
    • Non-GAAP net loss of breakeven to $1.0 million, or $0.00 per basic share to $(0.03) per share.

    Guidance Assumptions:

    • Includes an expected $300,000 sequential decline in SaaS revenue due to fewer days in the fiscal third quarter than in the second quarter.
    • Includes an expected $400,000 sequential decline in SaaS revenue due to seasonal volume increases in the second quarter that are not expected to repeat in the fiscal third quarter.
    • Includes stock-based compensation expense of approximately $500,000.
    • Includes depreciation and amortization of approximately $100,000.
    • Weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 32.9 million.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental information relating to our operating results. Such non-GAAP financial measures are adjusted for stock-based compensation expense and amortization of acquired intangible assets. Non-GAAP results are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. eGain’s management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare the Company’s performance to that of prior periods for trend analysis and for budgeting and planning purposes. eGain 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 the Company’s financial measures with other software companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors, and that it allows for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. Reconciliation tables of the most comparable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release are included with the financial tables at the end of this release. eGain urges investors to review the reconciliation and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.
