BEDFORD, MA, March 26, 2020 (GlobeNewswire) — Progress (NASDAQ: PRGS), the leading provider of application development and digital experience technologies, today announced results for its fiscal first quarter ended February 29, 2020.

On a GAAP basis, revenue was $109.7 million during the quarter compared to $89.5 million in the same quarter last year, a year-over-year increase of 22% on an actual currency basis and 23% on a constant currency basis. On a non-GAAP basis, revenue was $113.8 million during the quarter compared to $89.5 million in the same quarter last year, an increase of 27% on an actual currency basis and 28% on a constant currency basis.

“Q1 was a very strong quarter for us,” said Yogesh Gupta, CEO at Progress. “We exceeded both our revenue and EPS guidance, sustaining the momentum we achieved in 2019. Given the durable nature of our business, I’m confident that we can deliver solid results despite the current level of macro-economic uncertainty. Longer-term, we remain optimistic in our opportunity to drive shareholder value through accretive acquisitions in the software infrastructure space."

2020 Updated Business Outlook

Progress provides the following updated guidance for the fiscal year ending November 30, 2020 and the fiscal second quarter ending May 31, 2020, which reflects the expected impact of COVID-19 and changes in currency translation:

	Prior FY 2020 Guidance (January 16, 2020)				Updated FY 2020 Guidance (March 26, 2020)
(In millions, except percentages and per share amounts)	FY 2020 GAAP*		FY 2020 Non-GAAP		FY 2020 GAAP		FY 2020 Non-GAAP
Revenue	$440 - $447		$448 - $455		$420 - $430		$428 - $438
Diluted earnings per share	$1.87 - $1.91		$2.87 - $2.92		$1.73 - $1.80		$2.73 - $2.80
Operating margin	27%		39%		27%		39%
Cash from operations (GAAP) / Adjusted free cash flow (Non-GAAP)	$149 - $154		$145 - $150		$128 - $138		$125 - $135
Effective tax rate	21	%	20	%	22	%	21	%

*The FY2020 projected GAAP diluted earnings per share of $1.96 to $2.01 shown in the January 16, 2020 press release was incorrect, and should have been $1.87 to $1.91. The FY2020 projected GAAP effective tax rate of 17% shown in the January 16, 2020 press release was incorrect, and should have been 21%.

	Q2 2020 Guidance
(In millions, except per share amounts)	Q2 2020 GAAP	Q2 2020 Non-GAAP
Revenue	$93 - $99	$95 - $101
Diluted earnings per share	$0.36 - $0.40	$0.60 - $0.64

The expected economic impact of the COVID-19 crisis on our current 2020 business outlook is a reduction of approximately $10 to $13 million on GAAP and non-GAAP revenue, and approximately $0.06 to $0.08 on GAAP and non-GAAP earnings per share.

Based on current exchange rates, the expected negative currency translation impact on Progress' fiscal year 2020 business outlook compared to 2019 exchange rates is approximately $7 million on GAAP and non-GAAP revenue, and $0.06 on GAAP and non-GAAP earnings per share. The expected negative currency translation impact on Progress' fiscal Q2 2020 business outlook compared to 2019 exchange rates is approximately $2.5 million on GAAP and non-GAAP revenue, and $0.02 on GAAP and non-GAAP earnings per share. To the extent that there are changes in exchange rates versus the current environment, this may have an impact on Progress' business outlook.
