Tuesday, July 21, 2009 4:58 PM


(Source: PrimeNewswire)trackingATLANTA, July 21, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Leading supply chain optimization provider Manhattan Associates, Inc. (Nasdaq:MANH) today reported second quarter 2009 non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.14 compared to $0.42 in the 2008 second quarter and a GAAP loss per share of $0.02 compared to earnings of $0.37 per share in the prior year second quarter. The Company posted total second quarter revenue of $58.4 million, which was down 35% from overall revenue posted in the second quarter of 2008, driving the earnings per share decline.

Manhattan Associates President and CEO Pete Sinisgalli commented, "Similar to the first quarter, businesses continue to be hesitant to release capital. This is particularly true for larger capital expenditures. As a result, we had no million-dollar contracts in either the first quarter or second quarter of the year. Our competitive win rate continues to be favorable, and I believe when businesses in the markets we serve gain confidence in the economy, we will see strong improvement in our financial results."

2009 GUIDANCE

Due to economic uncertainty and limited visibility, Manhattan Associates has decided to suspend its earnings guidance for the remainder of 2009. Our previously published guidance for fiscal year 2009 should not be relied upon as reflecting management's current expectations for full year results.

"Given our challenges forecasting license revenue in the first half of 2009 and the ongoing turbulence in the global economy, we have suspended our earnings guidance for the remainder of the year. We will revisit our guidance policy when markets stabilize," Mr. Sinisgalli said.

GAAP VERSUS NON-GAAP PRESENTATION

The Company provides adjusted operating income, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share in this press release as additional information regarding the Company's operating results. These measures are not in accordance with -- or an alternative for -- GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share measures used by other companies. The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures facilitates investors' understanding of its historical operating trends, because it provides important supplemental measurement information in evaluating the operating results of its business, as distinct from results that include items that are not indicative of ongoing operating results. The Company consequently believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with useful insight into its profitability. This release should be read in conjunction with its Form 8-K earnings release filing for the quarter ended June 30, 2009.

The non-GAAP adjusted operating income, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share exclude the impact of acquisition-related costs and the amortization thereof, the recapture of previously recognized sales tax expense, stock option expense under SFAS 123(R), asset impairment charges, and restructuring charges, all net of income tax effects, and unusual tax adjustments. A reconciliation of the Company's GAAP financial measures to non-GAAP adjustments is included in the supplemental information attached to this release.

The Company has also presented certain information excluding the effect between periods of changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the functional currencies of its foreign subsidiaries. Certain information regarding the effect of currency exchange rate fluctuation on results is included in note 5 to the supplemental information attached to this release.
