Perficient Acquires Kerdock Consulting

~ Deal Expected To Be Accretive to Cash Earnings Per Share in 2010 ~

St. Louis - March 29, 2010 --Perficient, Inc. (NASDAQ: PRFT), a leading information technology consulting firm serving Global 2000 and other large enterprise customers throughout North America, today announced that it has acquired Kerdock Consulting, LLC, an Oracle business intelligence and enterprise performance management consulting firm with approximately $8 million in annual revenues. The transaction is expected to increase Perficient’s annualized revenues to more than $200 million – with approximately 1,100 consulting, technology, sales and support professionals in 17 markets in North America. The acquisition is expected to be accretive to cash earnings per share in 2010.

 “Kerdock is a well structured transaction that brings a strong team and client roster, strategically important  expertise with the Hyperion stack of enterprise performance management tools and exceptional bill rates and gross margins,” said Jeffrey Davis, Perficient’s chief executive officer and president.  “The acquisition of Kerdock is a great way to restart our acquisition program and we look forward to aggressively pursuing additional acquisition opportunities in 2010.”

“In addition to building upon our existing significant expertise around the Oracle platform, Kerdock brings us access to CFO suites, where enterprise performance management solution purchase decisions are typically made”, said Kathy Henely, Perficient’s chief operating officer.  “Adding and strengthening relationships with CFOs will provide us access to pursue additional opportunities to expand our presence by bringing our full services portfolio to the enterprise.”

The acquisition of Kerdock:

§   Deepens Perficient's high-end expertise in the high growth enterprise performance management space;

§   Increases Perficient’s market presence in Houston, a large and growing market for enterprise technology services;

§   Adds nearly 45 consulting, technology, sales and support professionals;

§   Adds client relationships with enterprise customers including: Ashmore Energy, CardTronics, Continental Airlines, Rice University, Texas Children’s Hospital, Parker Drilling and many more; and

§   Presents the opportunity to utilize Perficient’s geographic footprint and client relationships to provide additional opportunities for Kerdock’s solution offerings.

“Joining Perficient provides a real opportunity to accelerate the success and momentum of our business,” said Emil Fernandez, Kerdock’s chief executive officer. “This is the beginning of our opportunity to do something much bigger with our solutions and services portfolio.”

Fernandez will join Perficient in a key leadership role, serving as the General Manager of Perficient’s Oracle Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) business unit, reporting directly to Don Kasica, Perficient’s Vice-President of Field Operations, West.

The consideration paid in the transaction is approximately $6 million assuming the full earnout is achieved and excluding transaction costs, and includes $3.4 million in cash and approximately $2.6 million worth of Perficient common stock (based on the average closing price of Perficient’s common stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market for the thirty trading days immediately preceding the acquisition close per the terms of the acquisition agreement). GAAP accounting will require using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the close date in reporting the value of the stock consideration paid in the acquisition.
