News Release
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Daegis Inc. Announces Corporate Update
● Daegis fourth quarter revenue increases sequentially as enterprise software focus and channel strategy progress |
● Company to enact cost reduction measures to better align with the needs of the business |
IRVING, Texas June 3, 2015 Daegis Inc. (Daegis or the Company) (NASDAQ: DAEG), a global information governance, data migration and application development software company, today announced a corporate update in advance of its July 2015 full fiscal year and fourth quarter financial results announcement. The Company will further its enterprise software focus through both its direct and recently implemented channel sales strategies, while enacting cost reduction measures to right size the business.
Daegis is pre-announcing fourth quarter estimated total revenue of $6.1 million, a 7% increase sequentially compared to $5.7 million in the third quarter. The Company is reporting its revenue at this time to provide investors with information on the progress of its recent initiatives to leverage its product portfolio in the enterprise software segment. Full financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal 2015 will be reported during the Companys upcoming earnings release and conference call presently anticipated taking place in late July.
As part of the execution of its strategy, Daegis will continue to integrate its eDiscovery technology into its broader information governance platform, while de-emphasizing the eDiscovery services component of its offering. This will entail a reduction in force with those employees who primarily service the Companys legal clients. The cost reduction will impact approximately 25 employees, or 17% of the workforce. Daegis will incur one-time costs of approximately $300,000 and is expected to save approximately $1.6 million in costs for fiscal 2016 and $1.8 to $2.0 million on an annual basis.
We are on pace with executing our business plan, said Tim Bacci, CEO of Daegis. The decision to reduce our eDiscovery services offering was a difficult one, but its the right one for the future direction of the business. The market has shifted to require comprehensive software oriented information governance solutions that address the growing volumes of data in the enterprise. Our holistic information governance software solution with its combination of archiving, analytics and eDiscovery is a competitive differentiator for us. Matter-based eDiscovery services are no longer core to our strategy and we determined it was time to downplay this aspect of our offering. This move allows us to significantly reduce costs and continue the expansion of our global channel sales program. Bacci concluded, Were making the tough decisions to remove costs from the business to right size the operations based on our current revenue structure, and working to re-finance our debt as we reported last month. These changes and the debt re-financing work led us to push our quarterly financial results reporting to late July. This is later than usual for us, but within the 90-day window for year-end reporting. Were optimistic our actions are the right ones to take Daegis to the next level.
