2019 Conference Call Scheduled for March 4, 2020

Qumu Corporation QUMU, the leading provider of best-in-class video technology for the enterprise, announced preliminary financial results for its full year ended December 31, 2019. The preliminary financial results for 2019 are subject to the Company's management and its independent auditors' customary audit procedures.

Full year 2019 revenue is expected to be approximately $25.4 million, compared to financial guidance issued by the Company of 2019 revenue of $27 million. Fourth quarter revenue was less than expected due to several large expansion agreements with existing customers that were delayed in the contracting process. The Company's preliminary gross margin percentage for 2019 is expected to be approximately 72%, which compares favorably to the Company's previous financial guidance of expected gross margin percentage of high 60s to low 70s.

Net loss for 2019 is expected to be approximately $(6.5) million, which differs from previous guidance of $(5.1) million primarily due to fourth quarter revenue delays. The Company also provided financial guidance for 2019 adjusted EBTIDA, a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA excludes items from net income (loss), a GAAP measure, 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. Adjusted EBITDA for 2019 is expected to be approximately $(2.9) million, which differs from previous guidance of $(1.5) million primarily due to fourth quarter revenue delays.

The company finished the year with customer retention of approximately 92% and cash of $10.6 million after completing a public offering of common stock and fully repaying the ESW Holdings, Inc. term loan.
