), the premier provider of people-centric enterprise solutions, today announced that it has determined that it will be unable to regain compliance with the Company's SEC filing requirements for continued listing of its common stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market by the previously reported April 4, 2013 deadline set by The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC Hearings Panel (the “Panel”). As previously reported, the Company is not current in its periodic report filing requirements with the SEC as a result of the Company's pending restatement of prior financial results. While the Company has been working diligently to complete the restatement and regain compliance with its reporting requirements, the Company has determined that it will be unable to achieve these objectives prior to the April 4, 2013 deadline. The Company has made significant progress toward completion of the restatement, including the determination of completion dates for our consulting services arrangements. The finalization of these completion dates is needed to recognize revenue from such arrangements on contract completion, rather than on a proportional performance basis, and complete the restatement. The Company anticipates that the impact of the restatement on its financial statements: will change the time period during which the affected revenues, including a portion of the Company's cloud-based subscription services, were recognized, generally shifting the timing of such revenues to later periods; will not result in changes in the cumulative revenue to be recognized over the duration of the Company's contractual arrangements; and will not result in changes in cumulative cash flow from operations. The Company intends to complete the restatement and regain compliance with its filing requirements as soon as practicable. In connection with becoming current in its SEC filing requirements, the Company intends to apply for prompt readmission to the NASDAQ Global Select Market so that it can trade on that market as early as possible after regaining compliance with the listing requirements. Although the Company has set a revised objective to complete the restatement process in the next few months, there are some inherent uncertainties in the amount of time required to complete the work and there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in meeting this timing goal. The Company anticipates that its shares of common stock will be delisted from the NASDAQ Global Select Market later this week. Following the suspension of trading in the Company's common stock on NASDAQ, the Company expects that its shares will trade on the OTC Markets – OTC Pink Tier while the Company works to finalize the restatement. The Company's trading symbol will remain SABA. For quotes or additional information on OTC Markets and the OTC Pink Tier, you may visit www.otcmarkets.com.

However, with respect to certain metrics not expected to be impacted by the restatement, the Company is providing the following guidance: In the first three quarters of fiscal year 2013 (ended February 28, 2013), cloud bookings (the annual contract value of cloud arrangements) grew 23% over the respective nine-month period a year ago, while cloud billings (cloud revenue plus the change in cloud deferred revenue) remained relatively flat Cloud renewal rates for the first nine months of 2013 remained in excess of 90% Signed 146 new customers in the first nine months of fiscal year 2013, already exceeding the 141 new customers added in fiscal year 2012 Reached over 10.6 million cloud subscribers Approximately $12.1 million in cash (after aggregate payments of approximately $7.6 million associated with the accounting review and restatement) and $25 million in debt at the end of the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 Cash flow from operations, excluding costs associated with the accounting review and restructuring, was approximately breakeven for the nine months ended February 28, 2013, and is expected to be approximately breakeven for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2013 The Company continues to innovate and introduce to the market new products and new versions of existing products.
