More importantly, our Cloud Telecommunications Segment service revenue had a very impressive 28% increase compared to the second quarter of 2016. Cloud Telecommunications service revenue is a very important factor to use in gauging our future growth. That growth will propel us to cash flow break even and profitability. Even with this impressive growth, we have continued to be very effective in controlling our costs, we reduced our operating expenses for the second quarter of 2017 10% compared to the second quarter of 2016. Also, very encouraging is the substantial reduction in GAAP loss of $(0.02) per diluted common share, compared to a net GAAP loss of $(0.06) per diluted common share for the second quarter of 2016."

Mihaylo added, "We continue to provide top of the line products at a price point that will save most businesses money. I am proud of the effort of our team, we have highly satisfied customers and our products and services continue to be the best in the industry as shown by our recent 2017 Communications Solutions Products of the Year Award. I continue to be convinced that we will achieve cash flow breakeven and GAAP net income this year. We will continue to grow the business organically and we are always open to accretive acquisitions. The growth in our business convinced us that it is now time to take the Crexendo Ride The Cloud © to a larger audience, we will be attending the 2017 Rodman & Renshaw Annual Global Investment Conference in New York taking place September 11 - 12."

Doug Gaylor, President and COO, stated, "The entire team and I are working hard every day to increase sales, provide the best customer products, services and experiences in the industry. We believe the changes we have put forth in the sales process are impacting our results positively. We are continuously making improvements in our marketing and customer acquisition process.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To evaluate our business, we consider and use non-generally accepted accounting principles (Non-GAAP) net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of operating performance. These measures include the same adjustments that management takes into account when it reviews and assesses operating performance on a period-to-period basis. We consider Non-GAAP net income (loss) to be an important indicator of overall business performance because it allows us to evaluate results without the effects of share-based compensation, rent expense paid with common stock, interest expense paid with common stock, and amortization of intangibles. We define EBITDA as U.S. GAAP net income (loss) before interest income, interest expense, other income and expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA provides a useful metric to investors to compare us with other companies within our industry and across industries. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for share-based compensation, and rent expense paid with stock. We use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to review and assess operating performance. We also believe use of Adjusted EBITDA facilitates investors’ use of operating performance comparisons from period to period, as well as across companies.

In our August 7, 2017 earnings press release, as furnished on Form 8-K, we included Non-GAAP net loss, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. The terms Non-GAAP net loss, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA are not defined under U.S. GAAP, and are not measures of operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in analytical tools, and when assessing our operating performance, Non-GAAP net loss, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for net loss or other consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations include, but are not limited to:

  • EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
  • they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
  • they do not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt that we may incur;
  • they do not reflect income taxes or the cash requirements for any tax payments;
  • although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will be replaced sometime in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
  • while share-based compensation is a component of operating expense, the impact on our financial statements compared to other companies can vary significantly due to such factors as the assumed life of the options and the assumed volatility of our common stock; and
  • other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our U.S. GAAP results and using Non-GAAP net income (loss), EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA only as supplemental support for management's analysis of business performance. Non-GAAP net income (loss), EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are calculated as follows for the periods presented.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In accordance with the requirements of Regulation G issued by the SEC, we are presenting the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures and reconciling the unaudited Non-GAAP financial metrics to the comparable U.S. GAAP measures.
