WESTFORD, Mass.--()--NETSCOUT SYSTEMS, INC. (NASDAQ: NTCT), a leading provider of service assurance, security, and business analytics, today announced financial results for its second quarter fiscal year 2021 ended September 30, 2020.

“We delivered solid earnings per share growth in the second quarter of fiscal year 2021, compared with the same period last year,” stated Anil Singhal, NETSCOUT’s president and chief executive officer. “We are pleased with our ability to serve our customers’ visibility and security needs while ensuring the safety and productivity of our team as we executed our strategy and delivered stable results in this tough and uncharted COVID-19 environment.”

Singhal continued, “Our business and operations have proven to be largely resilient as we navigate the global pandemic and macroeconomic uncertainty. This is due to our relevant solutions, trusted brand, strong customer relationships, dedicated team, and solid financial profile. That said, we are not immune from the impacts of the COVID-19 global pandemic and resulting challenging macro-economic environment that is causing elongated purchasing cycles and we expect our fiscal year financial results to be affected given these uncertainties. However, with long-term market trends in our favor, such as, digital transformation, cloud migration, increased cyber threats, and 5G networks, NETSCOUT is well-positioned as “Guardians of the Connected World” when we emerge from this global crisis.”

Product revenue (GAAP and non-GAAP) for the second quarter of fiscal year 2021 was $92.0 million, which was approximately 45% of total revenue. This compares with second-quarter fiscal year 2020 product revenue (GAAP and non-GAAP) of $102.8 million, which was approximately 47% of total revenue.

NETSCOUT’s income from operations (GAAP) was $3.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2021, compared with a loss from operations (GAAP) of $7.3 million in the comparable quarter one year ago.

This compares with second-quarter fiscal year 2020 non-GAAP income from operations of $31.6 million and a non-GAAP operating margin of 14.6%.

Net loss (GAAP) for the second quarter of fiscal year 2021 was $3.7 million, or $0.05 per share (diluted) versus net loss (GAAP) of $17.5 million, or $0.23 per share (diluted), for the second quarter of fiscal year 2020. On a non-GAAP basis, net income for the second quarter of fiscal year 2021 was $28.2 million, or $0.38 per share (diluted), which compares with $21.4 million, or $0.28 per share (diluted), for the second quarter of fiscal year 2020.

A reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP results is included in the attached financial tables.

The Company’s first-half fiscal year 2021 (GAAP) operating margin was -2.8% versus -7.9% in the comparable period of fiscal year 2020.

The Company’s non-GAAP income from operations for the first half of fiscal year 2021 was $60.5 million with a non-GAAP operating margin of 15.5%, compared with non-GAAP income from operations for the same period of fiscal year 2020 of $43.7 million and a non-GAAP operating margin of 10.9%.
  • For the first six months of fiscal year 2021, NETSCOUT’s net loss (GAAP) was $21.1 million, or $0.29 per share (diluted) compared with a net loss of $46.8 million, or $0.61 per share (diluted) in the same six-month period one year ago.

Outlook:

For fiscal year 2021, NETSCOUT expects revenue (GAAP and non-GAAP) to decline in the mid-to -upper single digits, on a percentage basis, compared with fiscal year 2020. This outlook is due to the COVID-19 global pandemic and resulting challenging macro-economic environment causing elongated purchasing cycles. NETSCOUT will continue to prudently manage its cost structure and expects to deliver improved annual GAAP earnings per share and expects non-GAAP earnings per share to be in-line with our non-GAAP fiscal year 2020 earnings per share number.

Conference Call Instructions:

NETSCOUT will host a conference call to discuss its second-quarter fiscal year 2021 financial results today at 8:30 a.m. ET. This call will be webcast live through NETSCOUT’s website at https://ir.netscout.com/investors/overview/default.aspx. Alternatively, people can listen to the call by dialing (785) 424-1667. The conference call ID is NTCTQ221. A replay of the call will be available after 12:00 p.m. ET on October 29, 2020 for approximately one week. The number for the replay is (800) 283-8486 for U.S./Canada and (402) 220-0869 for international callers.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information:

To supplement the financial measures presented in NETSCOUT's press release in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), NETSCOUT also reports the following non-GAAP measures: non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share (diluted) and non-GAAP earnings before interest and other expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) from operations. Non-GAAP revenue eliminates the GAAP effects of acquisitions by adding back revenue related to deferred revenue revaluation. Non-GAAP gross profit includes the aforementioned revenue adjustments and also removes expenses related to the amortization of acquired intangible assets, share-based compensation, and acquisition-related depreciation. Non-GAAP income from operations includes the aforementioned adjustments and also removes business development and integration expense, compensation for post-combination services, legal expenses related to a civil judgment, restructuring charges, and costs related to new accounting standard implementation, and adds back transitional service agreement income. Non-GAAP net income includes the foregoing adjustments related to non-GAAP income from operations, net of related income tax effects while removing transitional service agreement income and changes in contingent consideration. Non-GAAP EBITDA from operations includes the aforementioned items related to non-GAAP income from operations and also removes non-acquisition related depreciation expense. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures included in the attached tables within this press release.

These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with GAAP, should not be considered an alternative for measures prepared in accordance with GAAP (revenue, gross profit, operating margin, net income and diluted net income per share), and may have limitations because they do not reflect all of NETSCOUT’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should only be used to evaluate NETSCOUT’s results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. The presentation of non-GAAP information is not meant to be considered superior to, in isolation from or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

NETSCOUT believes these non-GAAP financial measures will enhance the reader’s overall understanding of NETSCOUT’s current financial performance and NETSCOUT's prospects for the future by providing a higher degree of transparency for certain financial measures and providing a level of disclosure that helps investors understand how the Company plans and measures its own business. NETSCOUT believes that providing these non-GAAP measures affords investors a view of NETSCOUT’s operating results that may be more easily compared to peer companies and also enables investors to consider NETSCOUT’s operating results on both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis during and following the integration period of NETSCOUT’s acquisitions. Presenting the GAAP measures on their own, without the supplemental non-GAAP disclosures, might not be indicative of NETSCOUT’s core operating results. Furthermore, NETSCOUT believes that the presentation of non-GAAP measures when shown in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures provides useful information to management and investors regarding present and future business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations.

NETSCOUT management regularly uses supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate its business and to make operating decisions. These non-GAAP measures are among the primary factors that management uses in planning and forecasting.
