  • (1888PressRelease) February 06, 2013 - DUBAI, United Arab Emirates -- Interactive Intelligence Group Inc. (Nasdaq: ININ), a global provider of unified IP business communications solutions, has announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended Dec. 31, 2012.

    "Our strong performance during the fourth quarter led to a record year for orders and revenues," said Interactive Intelligence founder and CEO, Dr. Donald Brown. "In 2012, we have further extended our product leadership position and gained even more momentum in cloud-based offerings, which is the fastest growing segment of the contact center market. The number of our new cloud-based customers reached record levels in the fourth quarter and the total dollar amount of contracts continues growing at a rate significantly higher than the overall market.

    "While continuing to add some of the most recognized global companies as customers, we remain committed to maintaining our pace of innovation, with several new products scheduled for release this year," continued Brown. "Looking forward, given our strong global pipeline of opportunities, we are reaffirming our 2013 total order growth forecast of 20 percent and expect cloud-based orders to represent approximately 50 percent of total 2013 orders. We remain focused on innovation, product leadership and cloud-based growth and are confident in our long-term financial profile, which will be driven by growth in recurring revenues." 

    Fourth Quarter 2012 Financial Highlights:
    Orders: Total orders grew by 119 percent from the fourth quarter of 2011, while cloud-based orders were up 311 percent over the fourth quarter of 2011 and comprised 39 percent of total orders. The company signed 68 contracts over $250,000, which included 19 orders over $1.0 million, up from 37 and six, respectively, in the fourth quarter of 2011.

    Revenues: Total revenues were $70.5 million, an increase of 22 percent over the fourth quarter of 2011. Recurring revenues, which include both maintenance and support from perpetual license agreements and cloud-based revenues, increased 31 percent to $33.1 million and accounted for 47 percent of total revenues. Cloud-based revenues increased 47 percent to $6.6 million. Product revenues were $27.2 million and services revenues were $10.2 million, compared to $26.5 million and $6.0 million, respectively, in the fourth quarter of 2011.

    Total Deferred Revenues: Deferred revenues increased to $91.9 million as of Dec. 31, 2012, from $75.4 million as of Dec. 31, 2011. In addition, the amount of unbilled future cloud-based revenues as of Dec. 31, 2012 increased to $89.5 million from $34.6 million as of Dec. 31, 2011. The combination of deferred revenues and unbilled future cloud-based revenues was $181.4 million, up 65 percent from $110.0 million as of Dec. 31, 2011.

The year-over-year decline in operating income resulted from the deferral of revenues due to an increase in cloud-based orders, certain premises-based orders received in the fourth quarter of 2012 for which revenues were deferred to future periods, and the increased investment in sales, marketing, and research and development to expand the company's product leadership and share in the cloud-based market.

The year-over-year decline in operating income resulted from deferral of revenues due to an increase in cloud-based orders, certain premises-based orders received in 2012 for which revenues were deferred to future periods, and the increased investment in sales, marketing, and research and development to expand the company's product leadership and share in the cloud-based market.
