Management Commentary

Pat Goepel , Chief Executive Officer of Asure Software commented, "We are pleased with our performance in the second quarter. Asure Software continues to execute on our key business strategies, with an integrated focus across all areas of the business from sales and account management to marketing and product development. SaaS-based recurring revenue increased for the quarter. While overall bookings increased this quarter over the previous quarter, we did see a decrease in SaaS-based bookings. We see our customer demand still being split between traditional On Premise solutions versus more leading edge On Demand solutions. We believe the market will continue to shift to SaaS-based solutions, but not at the rate we originally planned. As such, we have lowered our annual revenue and annual EBITDA guidance. We are still confident in our progress.   Our "Land & Expand" sales strategy continues to prove successful with several expanded contracts and strategic opportunities. Additionally, our UK and EMEA-based initiatives saw significant success in the second quarter both in new sales as well as expanded partnership opportunities. Staying focused on the business strategy and following through with solid execution has been and will continue to be critical to our success."  

Jennifer Crow , Asure's Chief Financial Officer added, "We executed on our plan to bolster stockholders' equity and raised $3.5 million in cash in the second quarter by selling shares pursuant to our Form S-3. With part of the proceeds, we reduced our short-term liabilities and paid down $2.0 million of our Senior Notes Payable with our primary debt lender.  The equity raise and increased cash flow from operations have strengthened our overall financial position and allow us to enter the second half of the year with cash on hand of $3.5 million."

"Safe Harbor" Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995:

Statements in this press release regarding Asure's business which are not historical facts are "forward-looking statements" that involve risks and uncertainties. Such risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements.

*Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes the following financial measures defined as a non-GAAP financial measure by the Securities and Exchange Commission: EBITDA and GAAP Net Income/(Loss) excluding one-time items. These supplemental financial measures are not required by GAAP, nor are the presentation of this financial information intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Management recognizes that non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the items associated with Asure's earnings results as determined in accordance with GAAP. However, for the reasons described below, management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate the performance of Asure's business. Asure's management believes that it is important to provide investors with these same tools, together with reconciliation to GAAP, for evaluating the performance of Asure's business, as it may provide additional insight into Asure's financial results. See the "Reconciliation of GAAP Net Income/(Loss) to Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization and Stock Compensation Expense (EBITDA)" and the "Reconciliation of GAAP Net Income/(Loss) to Net Earnings Excluding One-Time Items" tables included in this press release for further information regarding these non-GAAP financial measures. In addition, these measures are presented because management believes they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and others in the evaluation of companies.

EBITDA is calculated by adding income taxes, interest expense, depreciation and amortization and stock compensation expense to net earnings, EBITDA is not defined under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings and other consolidated earnings data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of Asure's profitability.

Net Earnings Excluding One-Time Items is calculated by combining the company's GAAP Net Earnings, or earnings per share, with items that are one time in nature and are not expected to recur on a dollar or per share basis.

Free Cash Flow is computed by subtracting capital expenditures from cash flow from operations, each as determined in accordance with GAAP and as reflected in the statement of cash flows.

Non-GAAP Revenue is computed added back the deferred revenue fair market valuation to GAAP revenue.
