MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Dec. 2, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Pure Storage (NYSE: PSTG) today announced financial results for the third fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2015.

Pure Storage posted revenue of $131.4 million and GAAP net loss of $56.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2016.  These results compare to revenue of $49.2 million and a GAAP net loss of $40.4 million in the year-ago quarter. GAAP gross margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2016 was 61.1% and GAAP product gross margin was 63.0%, compared to 58.3% and 61.9%, respectively, in the year-ago quarter. Non-GAAP net loss was $29.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2016, compared to $33.7 million in the year-ago quarter. Non-GAAP gross margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2016 was 61.7% and non-GAAP product gross margin was 63.1%, compared to 58.7% and 62.0%, respectively, in the year-ago quarter.

"We had an outstanding third quarter including record revenue, gross margin and operating margin," said Scott Dietzen, CEO of Pure Storage. "Pure delivers customers a storage platform that transforms their businesses and their IT environments through a dramatic increase in performance with flash, and a reduction in complexity and costs through a cloud-centric model. None of our primary competitors are properly enabling customers to reap the benefits of flash and cloud, the biggest changes to the storage market in decades, as we are. We believe this is why others in the storage space are stumbling while we are growing."

"We achieved record revenue while improving operating leverage," said Tim Riitters, CFO of Pure Storage. "We will continue to drive growth and market share gains with a close eye on profitability over time." 

Pure Storage also grew its customer base to more than 1,350 organizations, adding more than 250 new customers in the third quarter, including Domino's Pizza and The Boston Globe. Existing customers ConocoPhillips, LinkedIn and ServiceNow also expanded the scope of their relationships with Pure Storage, lending to a strong and continually growing customer base.

Financial Outlook

Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2016 Guidance:

  • Revenue in the range of $134 million to $139 million
  • Non-GAAP gross margin in the range of 62% to 65%
  • Non-GAAP operating margin in the range of (24%) to (18%)

All forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures contained in this section titled "Financial Outlook" exclude stock-based compensation expense and, as applicable, other special items.  We have not reconciled guidance for non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP operating margin to their most directly comparable GAAP measures because such items that impact these measures are not within our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure guidance to the corresponding GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable effort.

Pure Storage will host a teleconference to discuss the third quarter of fiscal 2016 results at 5:30 a.m. Pacific Standard Time on December 3, 2015. Pure Storage will post its supplemental earnings presentation to our investor relations website at investor.purestorage.com following the conference call.  Teleconference details are as follows:

Forward Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements regarding our products, business and operations, including our ability to maximize growth and market share in the short term and profitability over time and our financial outlook for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 and statements regarding our products, business and operations. Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and are based on potentially inaccurate assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected or implied by the forward-looking statements. Actual results may differ materially from the results predicted, and reported results should not be considered as an indication of future performance. The potential risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from the results predicted include, among others, those risks and uncertainties included under the captions "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in the final Prospectus related to our initial public offering of Class A common stock filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933 (Registration No. 333-206312), and other reports on file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which are available on our investor relations website at investor.purestorage.com and on the SEC website at www.sec.gov. Additional information will also be set forth in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended October 31, 2015. All information provided in this release and in the attachments is as of December 2, 2015, and we undertake no duty to update this information unless required by law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss per share, free cash flow, and free cash flow as a percentage of revenue.  In computing these non-GAAP financial measures, we exclude the effects of stock-based compensation expense, assumed preferred stock conversion, and a one-time charge for an equity grant to the Pure Good Foundation in the third quarter of fiscal 2016. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We use these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Our management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity by excluding certain expenses and expenditures such as stock-based compensation expense that may not be indicative of our ongoing core business operating results. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when analyzing historical performance and liquidity and planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and our non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures, please see the tables captioned "Reconciliations of non-GAAP results of operations to the nearest comparable GAAP measures" and "Reconciliation from net cash used in operating activities to free cash flow," included at the end of this release.
