Qumu Corporation (NASDAQ: QUMU) today reported financial results for the
first quarter ended March 31, 2019. The Company reported first quarter
revenue of $7.1 million, a net loss of $(950,000) and adjusted EBITDA, a
non-GAAP measure, of $210,000, ending the quarter with cash of $8.6
million.

“Qumu has delivered a strong start to 2019, building on momentum from
the second half of 2018. Given our growing revenue, strong sales
pipeline, solid balance sheet and positive adjusted EBITDA for three of
the last four quarters, we have a high degree of confidence in our 2019
annual financial guidance,” said Vern Hanzlik, Qumu’s President and CEO.
“Convergence of the Enterprise Video market with the Web and Video
Conferencing market traditionally dominated by firms like Zoom, Cisco,
Microsoft, and Google is happening as we speak—and Qumu is directly
benefiting from it.”

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, revenue was $7.1 million,
compared to $4.8 million last year, and net loss was $(950,000), or
$(0.10) per diluted share, compared to $(4.5) million, or $(0.48) per
diluted share, for the first quarter 2018. For the three months ended
March 31, 2019, adjusted EBITDA was $210,000, compared to adjusted

Non-GAAP Information

To supplement the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements
presented on a GAAP basis, the Company uses adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP
measure, which excludes certain items from net income (loss), a GAAP
measure. Adjusted EBITDA excludes items related to interest income and
expense, the impact of income-based taxes, depreciation and
amortization, stock-based compensation, change in fair value of warrant
liabilities, foreign currency gains and losses, and other non-operating
income and expenses.

The Company uses both GAAP and non-GAAP measures when planning,
monitoring, and evaluating the Company’s performance. The Company
believes that adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it provides
supplemental information that allows investors to review the Company’s
results of operations from the same perspective as management and the
Company’s board of directors. Non-GAAP results are presented for
supplemental informational purposes only for understanding our operating
results. The non-GAAP results should not be considered a substitute for
financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used
by other companies.

See the attached Supplemental Financial Information for a reconciliation
of net loss, a GAAP measure, to adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, for
the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.
