For the three months ended March 31, 2018 we delivered net GAAP operating income of $0.6 million on revenues of $5.0 million. Included in operating results above for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were $0.0 million and $0.4 million of share-based compensation expense, respectively.
Deferred revenue at March 31, 2018 was $13.1 million, compared with $18.4 million at December 31, 2017. The decrease is primarily related to our adoption of new revenue recognition accounting guidance on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition method applied to contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Our cash balance at March 31, 2018 was $4.6 million, compared with $1.0 million at December 31, 2017.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The Company's management refers to these non-GAAP financial measures in making operating decisions because they provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company's operating performance. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate management's internal comparisons to the Company's historical operating results and comparisons to competitors' operating results. We include these non-GAAP financial measures (which should be viewed as a supplement to, and not a substitute for, their comparable GAAP measures) in this press release because we believe they are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency into the supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. The non-GAAP financial measures exclude (i) restructuring costs, (ii) effects of our Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock, and (iii) non-cash stock-based compensation charges and any potential tax effects. For a reconciliation of our GAAP and non-GAAP financial results, please refer to our Non-GAAP Operating Data GAAP Reconciliation, presented in this release.
