1.
Basis of Presentation
Commvault Systems, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Commvault” or the “Company”) is a leading provider of data and information management software applications and related services. The Company develops, markets and sells a suite of software applications and services, primarily in North America, Europe, Australia and Asia, that provides its customers with data protection solutions supporting all major operating systems, applications, and databases on virtual and physical servers, NAS shares, cloud-based infrastructures, and mobile devices; management through a single console; multiple protection methods including backup and archive, snapshot management, replication, and content indexing for eDiscovery; efficient storage management using deduplication for disk, tape and cloud; integration with the industry's top storage arrays; complete virtual infrastructure management supporting multiple hypervisors; security capabilities to limit access to critical data; policy based data management; and an end-user experience that allows them to protect, find and recover their own data using common tools such as web browsers, Microsoft Outlook and File Explorer. The Company also provides its customers with a broad range of professional and customer support services.
The consolidated financial statements as of
June 30, 2016
and for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
2015
are unaudited, and in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal
2016
. The results reported in these financial statements should not necessarily be taken as indicative of results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year.
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. The Company bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The amounts of assets and liabilities reported in the Company’s balance sheets and the amounts of revenues and expenses reported for each of its periods presented are affected by estimates and assumptions, which are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, income taxes and related reserves, stock-based compensation and accounting for research and development costs. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no significant changes in the Company’s accounting policies during the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
as compared to the significant accounting policies described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
March 31, 2016
.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Revenue Recognition
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" (ASU 2014-09) and has since modified the standard with ASU 2015-14, "Deferral of the Effective Date." These standards replace existing revenue recognition rules with a comprehensive revenue measurement and recognition standard and expanded disclosure requirements. The new standard becomes effective for the Company's fiscal 2019 with early adoption permitted in fiscal 2018. The Company is in the process of determining the impact of the standard on the financial statements and the timing of adoption. The FASB allows two adoption methods under the new standard. Under one method, a company will apply the rules to contracts in all reporting periods presented. The Company currently believes it will apply this method of adoption.

Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”). Under ASU 2016-02, a lessee will recognize in the balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-to-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The amendments of this ASU are effective for the Company's fiscal 2020, with early adoption permitted. A company will be required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on the financial statements.

Stock-based Compensation
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, "Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting," which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The Company is required to adopt the new guidance in fiscal 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-09 will have on the financial statements.

There have been no other accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted by the Company which are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Revenue Recognition
The Company derives revenues from
two
primary sources: software licenses and services. Services include customer support, consulting, assessment and design services, installation services and training. A typical sales arrangement includes both licenses and services.
For sales arrangements involving multiple elements, the Company recognizes revenue using the residual method. Under the residual method, the Company allocates and defers revenue for the undelivered elements based on fair value and recognizes the difference between the total arrangement fee and the amount deferred for the undelivered elements as revenue. The determination of fair value of the undelivered elements in multiple-element arrangements is based on the price charged when such elements are sold separately, which is commonly referred to as vendor-specific objective-evidence, or VSOE.
The Company’s software licenses typically provide for a perpetual right to use the Company’s software and are sold on a per-terabyte basis, on a per-copy basis, as site licenses or as a solution set. Software licenses sold on a capacity basis provide the customer with unlimited licenses of specified software products based on a defined level of terabytes of data under management. Site licenses give the customer the additional right to deploy the software on a limited basis during a specified term. Solution sets are generally sold on a per unit basis such as per virtual machine for our virtual machine backup, recovery and cloud management solution set; per mailbox for our email archive solution set and per user for our endpoint data protection solution set.
The Company recognizes software revenue through direct sales channels upon receipt of a purchase order or other persuasive evidence and when all other basic revenue recognition criteria are met as described below. The Company recognizes software revenue through all indirect sales channels on a sell-through model. A sell-through model requires that the Company recognize revenue when the basic revenue recognition criteria are met as described below and these channels complete the sale of the Company’s software products to the end-user. Revenue from software licenses sold through an original equipment manufacturer partner is recognized upon the receipt of a royalty report or purchase order from that original equipment manufacturer partner.

Services revenue includes revenue from customer support and other professional services. Customer support includes software updates on a when-and-if-available basis, telephone support, integrated web-based support and bug fixes or patches. Customer support revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the customer support agreement, which is typically
one
year. To determine the price for the customer support element when sold separately, the Company primarily uses historical renewal rates. Historical renewal rates are supported by performing an analysis in which the Company segregates its customer support renewal contracts into different classes based on specific criteria including, but not limited to, the dollar amount of the software purchased, the level of customer support being provided and the distribution channel. As a result of this analysis, the Company has concluded that it has established VSOE for the different classes of customer support when the support is sold as part of a multiple-element sales arrangement. The Company’s determination of fair value for customer support has not changed for the periods presented.
The Company’s other professional services include consulting services, implementation and post-deployment services and education services. Other professional services provided by the Company are not mandatory and can also be performed by the customer or a third-party. In addition to a signed purchase order, the Company’s consulting services and implementation and post-deployment services are, in some cases, evidenced by a Statement of Work, which defines the specific scope of such services to be performed when sold and performed on a stand-alone basis or included in multiple-element sales arrangements. Revenues from consulting services and implementation and post-deployment services are based upon a daily or weekly rate and are recognized when the services are completed. Education services include courses taught by the Company’s instructors or third-party contractors either at one of the Company’s facilities or at the customer’s site. Education services fees are recognized as revenue after the course has been provided. Based on the Company’s analysis of such other professional services transactions sold on a stand-alone basis, the Company has concluded it has established VSOE for such other professional services when sold in connection with a multiple-element sales arrangement. The Company generally performs its other professional services within
90
days of entering into an agreement. The Company’s determination of fair value for other professional services has not changed for the periods presented.
The Company has analyzed all of the undelivered elements included in its multiple-element sales arrangements and determined that VSOE of fair value exists to allocate revenues to services. Accordingly, assuming all basic revenue recognition criteria are met, software revenue is recognized upon delivery of the software license using the residual method.
The Company considers the four basic revenue recognition criteria for each of the elements as follows:
|
•
|
Persuasive evidence of an arrangement with the customer exists.
The Company’s customary practice is to require a purchase order and, in some cases, a written contract signed by both the customer and the Company, or other persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists prior to recognizing revenue related to an arrangement.
|
|
•
|
Delivery or performance has occurred.
The Company’s software applications are either physically or electronically delivered to customers with standard transfer terms such as FOB shipping point. Software and/or software license keys for add-on orders or software updates are typically delivered in an electronic format. If products that are essential to the functionality of the delivered software in an arrangement have not been delivered, the Company does not consider delivery to have occurred. Services revenue is recognized when the services are completed, except for customer support, which is recognized ratably over the term of the customer support agreement, which is typically
one
year.
|
|
•
|
Vendor’s fee is fixed or determinable.
The fee customers pay for software applications, customer support and other professional services is negotiated at the outset of a sales arrangement. The fees are therefore considered to be fixed or determinable at the inception of the arrangement. The Company evaluates instances when extended payment terms are granted to determine if revenue should be deferred until payment becomes due.
|
|
•
|
Collection is probable.
Probability of collection is assessed on a customer-by-customer basis. Each new customer undergoes a credit review process to evaluate its financial position and ability to pay. If the Company determines from the outset of an arrangement that collection is not probable based upon the review process, revenue is recognized at the earlier of when cash is collected or when sufficient credit becomes available, assuming all of the other basic revenue recognition criteria are met.
|
The Company’s sales arrangements generally do not include acceptance clauses. However, if an arrangement does include an acceptance clause, revenue for such an arrangement is deferred and recognized upon acceptance. Acceptance occurs upon the earliest of receipt of a written customer acceptance, waiver of customer acceptance or expiration of the acceptance period.

Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenues represent amounts collected from, or invoiced to, customers in excess of revenues recognized. This results primarily from the billing of annual customer support agreements, and billings for other professional services fees that have not yet been performed by the Company and receipt of license fees that are deferred due to one or more of the revenue recognition criteria not being met. The value of deferred revenues will increase or decrease based on the timing of invoices and recognition of revenue. The Company expenses internal direct and incremental costs related to contract acquisition and origination as incurred.
Deferred revenue consists of the following:

Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company grants credit to customers in a wide variety of industries worldwide and generally does not require collateral. Credit losses relating to these customers have been minimal.
Sales through the Company’s distribution agreement with Arrow Enterprise Computing Solutions, Inc. (“Arrow”) totaled
34%
and
35%
of total revenues for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
2015
, respectively. Arrow accounted for approximately
46%
of total accounts receivable as of
June 30, 2016
and
43%
of total accounts receivable as of
March 31, 2016
.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Company’s cash equivalents balance consists primarily of money market funds. The Company’s short-term investments balance consists of U.S. Treasury Bills with maturities of one year or less. The Company accounts for its short-term investments as held to maturity.
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for such asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value should maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. To measure fair value, the Company uses the following fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

4. Net Loss per Common Share
Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, vesting of restricted stock units and shares to be purchased under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The dilutive effect of such potential common shares is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method.

5. Commitments and Contingencies
In the normal course of its business, the Company may be involved in various claims, negotiations and legal actions. As of June 30, 2016, the Company is not aware of any asserted or unasserted claims, negotiations and legal actions for which a loss is considered reasonably possible of occurring and would require disclosure under the guidance.
On September 10, 2014, a purported class action complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey against the Company, its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer. The case is captioned In re Commvault Systems, Inc. Securities Litigation (Master File No. 3:14-cv-05628-MAS-LHG). The suit alleges that the Company made materially false and misleading statements, or failed to disclose material facts, regarding the Company's financial results, business, operations and prospects in violation of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The suit asserts claims covering an alleged class period from May 7, 2013 through April 24, 2014. It is purportedly brought on behalf of purchasers of the Company's common stock during that period, and seeks compensatory damages, costs and expenses, as well as equitable or other relief. Lead plaintiff, the Arkansas Teachers Retirement System, was appointed on January 12, 2015, and on March 18, 2015, an amended complaint was filed by the plaintiffs. On December 17, 2015, the defendant motion to dismiss the case was granted and the case dismissed; however, the plaintiffs were permitted to re-file their claim, which they did on February 5, 2016. Defendants filed another motion to dismiss on April 5, 2016, which remains pending with the court. Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, the Company cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of this matter. The Company is unable at this time to determine whether the outcome of the litigation will have a material impact on its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. As of June 30, 2016 the Company has not recorded a reserve for this matter.

6. Revolving Credit Facility
On June 30, 2014, the Company entered into a
five
-year
$250,000
revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility is available for share repurchases, general corporate purposes, and letters of credit. The Credit Facility contains financial maintenance covenants including a leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio. The Credit Facility also contains certain customary events of default which would permit the lenders to, among other things, declare all loans then outstanding to be immediately due and payable if such default is not cured within applicable grace periods. The Credit Facility also limits the Company's ability to incur certain additional indebtedness, create or permit liens on assets, make acquisitions, make investments, loans or advances, sell or transfer assets, pay dividends or distributions, and engage in certain transactions with foreign affiliates. Outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility accrue interest at an annual rate equal to London Interbank Offered Rate plus
1.50%
subject to increases based on the Company's actual leverage. The unused balance on the Credit Facility is also subject to a
0.25%
annual interest charge subject to increases based on the Company's actual leverage. As of
June 30, 2016
, there were
no
borrowings under the Credit Facility and the Company was in compliance with all covenants.
The Company has deferred the expense related to debt issuance costs, which are classified as Other Assets, and will amortize the costs into interest expense over the term of the Credit Facility. Unamortized amounts at
June 30, 2016
were
$757
. The amortization of debt issuance costs was
$63
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and 2015 and is included in Interest expense.
7. Capitalization
The company did not repurchase any of its shares during the
three months ended June 30, 2016
. As of
June 30, 2016
,
$93,102
remained in the stock repurchase authorization that expires on March 31, 2017.
8. Stock Plans
The following table presents the stock-based compensation expense included in Cost of services revenue, Sales and marketing, Research and development and General and administrative expenses for the
three

Performance Based Awards
In May 2016, the Company granted
115
performance restricted stock units ("PSU") to certain executives. Vesting of these awards is contingent upon i) the Company meeting certain company-wide revenue and non-GAAP performance goals (performance-based) in fiscal 2017 and ii) the Company's customary service periods. The awards vest in
three
annual tranches and have a maximum potential to vest at
200%
(
230
shares) based on actual fiscal 2017 performance. The related stock-based compensation expense is determined based on the value of the underlying shares on the date of grant and is recognized over the vesting term using the accelerated method. During the interim financial periods, management estimates the probable number of PSU’s that would vest until the ultimate achievement of the performance goals is known. The awards are included in the restricted stock unit table.

Awards with a Market Condition
In May 2016, the Company granted
115
market performance stock units to certain executives. The vesting of these awards is contingent upon the Company meeting certain total shareholder return ("TSR") levels as compared to a market index over the next
three
years. The awards vest in
three
annual tranches and have a maximum potential to vest at
200%
(
230
shares) based on TSR performance. The related stock-based compensation expense is determined based on the estimated fair value of the underlying shares on the date of grant and is recognized using the accelerated method over the vesting term. The estimated fair value was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The fair value of the awards granted in May was
$56.72
. The awards are included in the restricted stock unit table.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Purchase Plan”) is a shareholder approved plan under which substantially all employees may purchase the Company’s common stock through payroll deductions at a price equal to
85%
of the lower of the fair market values of the stock as of the beginning or the end of
six
-month offering periods. An employee’s payroll deductions under the Purchase Plan are limited to
10%
of the employee’s salary and employees may not purchase more than
$25
of stock during any calendar year. As of
June 30, 2016
,
2,643
shares were reserved for future issuance under the Purchase Plan. The Purchase Plan is considered compensatory and the fair value of the discount and look back provision are estimated using the Black-Scholes formula and recognized over the
six
month withholding period prior to purchase. The total expense associated with the Purchase Plan was
$679
for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
$677
for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
.
9. Income Taxes
Income tax benefit was
$581
in the three months ended June 30, 2016, an effective tax rate of
22%
. The effective rate is lower than the statuary rate primarily because of
$616
of income tax expense related to a change in the estimated state tax rate applied to the state deferred tax assets and the state income tax payable.
Income tax benefit was
$4,998
in the three months ended June 30, 2015, an effective tax rate of
79%
. The effective rate in the three months ended June 30, 2015 is higher than the statuary rate because projected unfavorable permanent differences represented a greater percentage of projected loss before taxes.
Unrecognized Tax Benefits
The calculation of the Company’s tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations in each of its tax jurisdictions. The number of years with open tax audits varies depending on the tax jurisdiction. A number of years may lapse before a particular matter is audited and finally resolved. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

Commvault Systems, Inc
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Unaudited (continued)
(In thousands, except per share data)
All of the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits would favorably impact the effective tax rate if they were recognized. Components of the reserve are classified as either current or long-term in the Consolidated Balance Sheet based on when the Company expects each of the items to be settled. Unrecognized tax benefits and the related accrued interest and penalties totaling
$2,083
are recorded as Other Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, of which
$214
represents interest and penalties. The Company also has unrecognized tax benefits and related accrued interest and penalties totaling
$237
as a reduction of Deferred Tax Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, of which
$94
represents interest and penalties.
Other Tax Items
The Company conducts business globally and as a result, files income tax returns in the United States and in various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world, including such major jurisdictions as the United States, Australia, Canada, Germany, Netherlands and United Kingdom. The years subject to income tax examination in the Company’s foreign jurisdictions cover the maximum time period with respect to these jurisdictions. Due to net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards, in some cases the tax years continue to remain subject to examination with respect to such NOLs. As of June 30, 2016, none of the Company's legal entities are under audit by a major tax jurisdiction.

You should read the following discussion and analysis along with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. The statements in this discussion regarding our expectations of our future performance, liquidity and capital resources, and other non-historical statements are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties described under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by any forward-looking statements.
Overview
We are a leading provider of data and information management software applications and related services. Our software platform is an enterprise level, integrated data and information management solution, built from the ground up on a single platform and unified code base. Our platform contains software functionality that works together seamlessly, sharing a single code and common function set to deliver Data Protection - Backup & Recovery; Cloud and Infrastructure Management; and Retention and Compliance across physical, virtual and cloud environments. All software functionality share the same back-end technologies to deliver the benefits of a holistic approach to protecting, managing, and accessing data. Our software addresses many aspects of data management in the enterprise, while providing scalability and control of data and information. Our software enables our customers to simply and cost-effectively protect and manage their enterprise data throughout its lifecycle, from the mobile worker to the remote office, to the data center, covering the leading operating systems, relational databases, virtualized environments and applications. We also provide our customers with a broad range of professional services that are delivered by our worldwide support and field operations. As of
June 30, 2016
, we had licensed our software applications to approximately 23,000 registered customers.
Our software licenses typically provide for a perpetual right to use our software and are sold on a per-terabyte capacity basis, on a per-copy basis, as site licenses or as a solution set. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, approximately 68% of software license revenue was sold on a capacity basis. This compares to approximately 73% of software license revenue was sold on a capacity basis during fiscal 2016. Capacity-based software licenses provide our customers with unlimited licenses of specified software products based on a defined level of terabytes of data under management. As a result, when we sell our platform through a capacity license, certain of the various Commvault functionalities are bundled into one capacity-based price. We anticipate that capacity-based licenses will continue to account for the majority of our software license revenue for fiscal 2017. Site licenses give the customer the additional right to deploy the software on a limited basis during a specified term. Our primary solution sets in our software suite include virtual machine backup, recovery and cloud management; endpoint data protection; and email archive. These solution sets can be individually deployed or combined as part of a comprehensive data protection and information management solution. Our solution sets are generally sold on a per-unit basis such as per virtual machine for our virtual machine backup, recovery and cloud management solution set; per mailbox for our email archive solution set and per user for our endpoint data protection solution set.
Historically, an insignificant amount of our revenue has been sold under subscription, or term-based, license arrangements. In these arrangements, the customer has the right to use the software on either a capacity basis or per-copy or per-unit basis over a designated period of time. Revenue in these arrangements is recognized ratably over the term of the agreement. Over the next several years, we expect revenue from these types of arrangements to become a more significant portion of our total revenue.
The industry in which we currently operate continues to go through accelerating changes as the result of compounding data growth and the introduction of new technologies. We remain focused on both the data and information management trends in the marketplace and, in fact, a material portion of our existing research and development expenses are utilized toward the development of such new technologies. While we are confident in our ability to meet these changing industry demands with our Commvault suite and potential future releases, the development, release and timing of any features or functionality remain at our sole discretion and our solutions or other technologies may not be widely adopted.
Given the nature of the industry in which we operate, our software applications are subject to obsolescence. We continually develop and introduce updates to our existing software applications in order to keep pace with evolving industry technologies. In addition, we must address evolving industry standards, changing customer requirements and competitive software applications that may render our existing software applications obsolete. For each of our software applications, we provide full support for the current generally available release and one prior release. When we declare a product release obsolete, a customer notice is delivered twelve months prior to the effective date of obsolescence announcing continuation of full product support for the first six months. We provide an additional six months of extended assistance support in which we only provide existing workarounds or fixes that do not require additional development activity. We do not have existing plans to make any of our software products permanently obsolete.

Sources of Revenues
We derive a significant portion of our total revenues from sales of licenses of our software applications. We do not customize our software for a specific end-user customer. We sell our software applications to end-user customers both directly through our sales force and indirectly through our global network of value-added reseller partners, systems integrators, corporate resellers and original equipment manufacturers. Our software revenue was
42%
and
41%
of our total revenues for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
2015
, respectively.
In recent fiscal periods, we have generated approximately three-quarters of our software revenue from our existing customer base and approximately one-quarter of our software revenue from new customers. In addition, our total software revenue in any particular period is, to a certain extent, dependent upon our ability to generate revenues from large customer software deals, which we refer to as enterprise software transactions. Enterprise software transactions (transactions greater than $0.1 million) represented approximately
52%
and
49%
of our total software revenue in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
2015
, respectively.
Software revenue generated through indirect distribution channels was
83%
of total software revenue in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and was approximately
89%
of total software revenue in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. Software revenue generated through direct distribution channels was approximately
17%
of total software revenue in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and was approximately
11%
of total software revenue in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. The dollar value of software revenue generated through indirect distribution channels
increased
approximately
$3.1 million
, or
6%
, in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
compared to the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. The dollar value of software revenue generated through direct distribution channels
increased
approximately
$4.4 million
, or
70%
, in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
compared to the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. The increase in the dollar value of software revenue generated through our direct sales force is primarily the result of several large enterprise transactions. Deals initiated by our direct sales force are sometimes transacted through indirect channels based on end-user customer requirements, which are not always in our control and can cause this overall percentage split to vary from period-to-period. As such, there may be fluctuations in the dollars and percentage of software revenue generated through our direct distribution channels from time-to-time. We believe that the growth of our software revenue, derived from both our indirect channel partners and direct sales force, are key attributes to our long-term growth strategy. We will continue to invest in both our channel relationships and direct sales force in the future, but we continue to expect more revenue to be generated through indirect distribution channels over the long term. The failure of our indirect distribution channels or our direct sales force to effectively sell our software applications could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and results of operations.
Our primary original equipment manufacturer agreement is with Hitachi Data Systems ("HDS") and allows them to market, sell and support our software applications and services on a stand-alone basis and/or incorporate our software applications into their own hardware products. Our original equipment manufacturer partners, including HDS, have no obligation to recommend or offer our software applications exclusively or at all, and they have no minimum sales requirements and can terminate our relationship at any time. Sales through our original equipment manufacturer agreements, accounted for
15%
of our total revenues for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
18%
of our total revenues for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
.
We also have non-exclusive distribution agreements covering our North American commercial markets and our U.S. Federal Government market with Arrow Enterprise Computing Solutions, Inc. ("Arrow"), a subsidiary of Arrow Electronics, Inc., and Avnet Technology Solutions ("Avnet"), a subsidiary of Avnet, Inc. Pursuant to these distribution agreements, these distributors’ primary role is to enable a more efficient and effective distribution channel for our products and services by managing our reseller partners and leveraging their own industry experience. We generated approximately
34%
of our total revenues through Arrow in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
, and approximately
35%
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. If Arrow or Avnet were to discontinue or reduce the sales of our products or if our agreement with Arrow or Avnet was terminated, and if we were unable to take back the management of our reseller channel or find another North American distributor to replace Arrow or Avnet, then it could have a material adverse effect on our future business.
Our services revenue was
58%
of our total revenues for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
59%
of our total revenues for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. Our services revenue is made up of fees from the delivery of customer support and other professional services, which are typically sold in connection with the sale of our software applications. Customer support agreements provide technical support and unspecified software updates on a when-and-if-available basis for an annual fee based on licenses purchased and the level of service subscribed. Other professional services include consulting, assessment and design services, implementation and post-deployment services and training, all of which to date have predominantly been sold in connection with the sale of software applications.
17
Most of our customer support agreements are for a one year term. As the end of the annual period approaches, we pursue the renewal of the agreement with the customer. Historically, maintenance renewals have represented a significant portion of our total revenue. Because of this characteristic of our business, if our customers choose not to renew their maintenance and support agreements with us on beneficial terms, or at all, our business, operating results and financial condition could be harmed. In addition, we are currently going through a re-alignment of our maintenance pricing to be more competitive in the market and make it easier for our customers to do business with Commvault. This maintenance pricing re-alignment will phase in over the current fiscal year and is primarily focused on the mid- to lower-end of the market (non-enterprise customers) which impacts approximately a quarter of our existing maintenance revenue dollar base. If we are not successful with our maintenance pricing re-alignment strategy, our business and financial performance might also be adversely impacted.
The gross margin of our services revenue was
77%
for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
76%
for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. Overall, our services revenue has lower gross margins than our software revenue. The gross margin of our software revenue was approximately
99%
for both the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. An increase in the percentage of total revenues represented by services revenue may adversely affect our overall gross margins.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rates’ Impact on Results of Operations
Sales outside the United States were approximately
44%
of our total revenue for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
45%
of our total revenue for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. The income statements of our non-U.S. operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates for each applicable month in a period. To the extent the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies, the translation of these foreign currency denominated transactions generally results in increased revenue, operating expenses and income from operations for our non-U.S. operations. Similarly, our revenue, operating expenses and net income will generally decrease for our non-U.S. operations if the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies.
Using the average foreign currency exchange rates from the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
our software revenue would have been higher by $0.9 million, our services revenue would have been higher by $0.9 million, our cost of sales would have been higher by approximately $0.1 million and our operating expenses would have been higher by $1.7 million from non-U.S. operations for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
.
In addition, we are exposed to risks of foreign currency fluctuation primarily from cash balances, accounts receivables and intercompany accounts denominated in foreign currencies and are subject to the resulting transaction gains and losses, which are recorded as a component of general and administrative expenses. We recognized a net foreign currency transaction gain of
$0.3
million in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
. We recognized net foreign currency transaction losses of approximately $0.2 million in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. In many instances, we could have reasonably used different accounting estimates, and in other instances changes in the accounting estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period-to-period. Accordingly, actual results could differ significantly from the estimates made by our management. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected.
In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require management’s judgment in its application, while in other cases, significant judgment is required in selecting among available alternative accounting standards that allow different accounting treatment for similar transactions. We consider these policies requiring significant management judgment to be critical accounting policies. These critical accounting policies are:
•
Revenue Recognition;
•
Stock-Based Compensation;
•
Accounting for Income Taxes; and
•
Software Development Costs
18
There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates during the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
March 31, 2016
. In addition, please see Note 2 of Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our fiscal
2016
Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for a description of our accounting policies.

Total revenues
increased
$13.3 million
, or
10%
, from
$139.1 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
to
$152.4 million
in the
three

Software Revenue.
Software revenue
increased
$7.4 million
, or
13%
, from
$56.5 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
to
$63.9 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
. Software revenue represented
42%
of our total revenues in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and compared to
41%
of total revenues in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
.
We track software revenue on a geographic basis. The geographic regions that are tracked are the Americas (United States, Canada, Latin America), EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) and APAC (Australia, New Zealand, Southeast Asia, China). Americas, EMEA and APAC represented 55%, 30% and 15% of total software revenue, respectively, for the three months ended
June 30, 2016
. The year-over-year increase of Software Revenue in the Americas, EMEA and APAC was 12%,
11%
and
22%
, respectively.
|
▪
|
The increase in Americas software revenue for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
was the result of an increase in the number of enterprise revenue transactions.
|
|
▪
|
EMEA software revenue increased primarily as a result of an increase in non-enterprise transaction revenue.
|
|
▪
|
The increase in APAC software revenue was primarily the result of an increase in the average dollar amount of enterprise transactions. This increase was partially offset by the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to APAC currencies. Using exchange rates from the first three months of fiscal
2016
, the increase in year-over-year software revenue would have been 28% compared to the actual increase of
22%
.
|
|
▪
|
Our software revenue in EMEA and APAC is subject to changes in foreign exchange rates as more fully discussed above in the “Foreign Currency Exchange Rates’ Impact on Results of Operations” section.

Software revenue derived from enterprise software transactions (transactions greater than $0.1 million) represented approximately
52%
of our software revenue in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and approximately
49%
of our software revenue in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. Enterprise software transaction revenue
increased
by
$5.3 million
, or
19%
, in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
compared to the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. This
increase
was driven by a
23%
increase in the number of transactions partially offset by a
4%
decline in the average dollar amount of such transactions. The average sales price was approximately
$242,000
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and approximately
$251,000
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. Software revenue derived from transactions less than $0.1 million
increased
$2.2 million
, or
8%
, in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
compared to the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
.
Services Revenue.
Services revenue
increased
$5.8 million
, or
7%
, from
$82.6 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
to
$88.5 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
. Services revenue represented
58%
of our total revenues in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
59%
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. The increase in services revenue is due to a
$6.6 million
increase
in revenue from customer support agreements as a result of software sales to new customers and renewal agreements with our installed software base. The increase in customer support revenue was partially offset by a decline in professional services revenue.
Cost of Revenues
. Total cost of revenues
increased
$0.4 million
, or
2%
, from
$20.5 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
to
$21.0 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
. Total cost of revenues represented
14%
of our total revenues in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
15%
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
.
Operating Expenses
Sales and Marketing.
Sales and marketing expenses
increased
$6.9 million
, or
8%
, from
$85.8 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
to
$92.7 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
. The increase is primarily due to a $4.2 million increase in employee compensation and related expenses, including $1.1 million in stock-based compensation, mainly attributable to the expansion of our sales force from the prior year. In addition, during the first quarter the Company held its first worldwide sales meeting in several years which also contributed to the year over year increase in sales and marketing expense. Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenues
decreased
to
61%
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
from
62%
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
.
Research and Development.
Research and development expenses
increased
$2.5 million
, or
15%
, from
$16.8 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
to
$19.2 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
. The
increase
is due to a $1.9 million increase in salary and related expenses resulting from the expansion of our engineering group. Research and development expenses as a percentage of total revenues was
13%
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
12%
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. Investing in research and development has been a priority for Commvault, and we anticipate continued spending related to the development of our data and information management software applications.
General and Administrative.
General and administrative expenses
increased
$0.1 million
, or
1%
, from
$19.8 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
to
$19.9 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
. General and administrative expenses in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
includes approximately
$0.3
million of net foreign currency transaction gains compared to approximately $0.2 million of net foreign currency transaction loss in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues was
13%
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
14%
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
.
Depreciation and Amortization.
Depreciation expense
decreased
by
$0.4 million
from
$2.5 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
to
$2.1 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
.
Income Tax Benefit
Income tax benefit was $0.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to a benefit of $5.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2015. The effective tax rate in the three months ended June 30, 2016 was 22% as compared to 79% in the three months ended June 30, 2015. The effective rate in the three months ended June 30, 2016 is lower than the statutory rate primarily because of $0.6 million of income tax expense related to a change in the estimated state tax rate applied to the state deferred tax assets and the state income tax payable. The effective rate in the three months ended June 30, 2015 is higher than the statuary rate because projected unfavorable permanent differences represented a greater percentage of projected loss before taxes. We estimate that cash expenditures for income taxes in fiscal 2017 will be less than $5 million.
20
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of
June 30, 2016
, our cash and cash equivalents balance of
$302.2 million
primarily consisted of cash and money market funds. In addition, as of
June 30, 2016
we have short-term investments invested in U.S. Treasury Bills totaling
$107.9 million
. In recent fiscal years, our principal source of liquidity has been cash provided by operations.
As of
June 30, 2016
, the amount of cash and cash equivalents held outside of the United States by our foreign legal entities was approximately
$147 million
. These balances are dispersed across many international locations around the world. We believe that such dispersion meets the current and anticipated future liquidity needs of our foreign legal entities. In addition, it is our intention to indefinitely reinvest undistributed earnings of our foreign legal entities. In the event we needed to repatriate funds from outside of the United States, such repatriation would likely be subject to restrictions by local laws and/or tax consequences including foreign withholding taxes or U.S. income taxes. It is not currently practical to estimate the legal restrictions or tax liability that would arise from such repatriations.
We have a five-year $250 million revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) that expires in 2019. The Credit Facility is available for share repurchases, general corporate purposes, and letters of credit. The Credit Facility contains financial maintenance covenants including a leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio. The Credit Facility also contains certain customary events of default which would permit the lenders to, among other things, declare all loans then outstanding to be immediately due and payable if such default is not cured within applicable grace periods. The Credit Facility also limits our ability to incur certain additional indebtedness, create or permit liens on assets, make acquisitions, make investments, loans or advances, sell or transfer assets, pay dividends or distributions, and engage in certain transactions with foreign affiliates. Outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility accrue interest at an annual rate equal to London Interbank Offered Rate plus 1.50% subject to increases based on the Company's actual leverage. The unused balance on the Credit Facility is also subject to a 0.25% annual interest charge subject to increases based on the Company's actual leverage. As of
June 30, 2016
, there were
no
borrowings under the Credit Facility and we believe we are in compliance with all covenants.
During the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
, we did not repurchase any of common stock shares under our share repurchase program. As of
June 30, 2016
, there was
$93 million
remaining in the share repurchase program which expires on March 31, 2017. Under our stock repurchase program, repurchased shares are constructively retired and returned to unissued status. Our stock repurchase program has been funded by our existing cash and cash equivalent balances as well as cash flows provided by our operations.
Our future stock repurchase activity is subject to the business judgment of our management and Board of Directors, taking into consideration our historical and projected results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and other anticipated capital requirements or investment alternatives. Our stock repurchase program reduces the dilutive impact on our common shares outstanding associated with stock option exercises and our previous public and private stock offerings through the repurchase of common stock we believe is undervalued.
Our summarized cash flow information is as follows (in thousands):

Net cash provided by operating activities was
$24.0 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
$21.9 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. In the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
, cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to net loss adjusted for the impact of non-cash charges, a decrease in accounts receivable due to timing of cash receipts and an increase in deferred revenue. These cash increases were partially offset by a decrease in accrued liabilities. In the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
, cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to net loss adjusted for the impact of non-cash charges, and decreases in accounts receivable due to timing of cash receipts, partially offset by a reduction of accrued expenses.

Net cash used in investing activities was
$9.9 million
for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
$14.7 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. In the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
, cash used in investing activities was related to $8.9 million in net purchases of U.S. Treasury Bills and $1.0 million of capital expenditures. In the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
, cash used in investing activities was primarily due to $10.9 million in net purchases of U.S. Treasury Bills, $2.1 million of incremental spending on the Company’s planned corporate campus headquarters, and $1.7 million of capital expenditures.
Net cash provided by financing activities was
$1.8 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
$3.5 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. The cash provided by financing activities in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
was due to
$1.6 million
of proceeds from the exercise of stock options and
$0.3 million
of excess tax benefits recognized as a result of the stock option exercises and restricted stock vesting. The net cash provided by financing activities in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
was primarily due to $1.8 million of excess tax benefits recognized as a result of the stock option exercises and $1.7 million of proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
Working capital
increased
$17.7 million
from
$252.4 million
as of
March 31, 2016
to
$270.1 million
as of
June 30, 2016
. The net increase in working capital is due primarily to a net increase in cash and short-term investments as a result of cash flow generated from operations. We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and our cash from operations will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for working capital, capital expenditures and potential stock repurchases for at least the next 12 months. We may seek additional funding through public or private financings or other arrangements during this period. Adequate funds may not be available when needed or may not be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. If additional funds are raised by issuing equity securities, dilution to existing stockholders will result. If we raise additional funds by obtaining loans from third parties, including borrowing under our revolving credit facility, the terms of those financing arrangements may include negative covenants or other restrictions on our business that could impair our operational flexibility, and would also require us to fund additional interest expense. If funding is insufficient at any time in the future, we may be unable to develop or enhance our products or services, take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of
June 30, 2016
, other than our operating leases, we do not have off-balance sheet financing arrangements, including any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities.
Indemnifications
Certain of our software licensing agreements contain certain provisions that indemnify our customers from any claim, suit or proceeding arising from alleged or actual intellectual property infringement. These provisions continue in perpetuity along with our software licensing agreements. We have never incurred a liability relating to one of these indemnification provisions in the past and we believe that the likelihood of any future payout relating to these provisions is remote. Therefore, we have not recorded a liability during any period related to these indemnification provisions.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Revenue Recognition
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" (ASU 2014-09) and has since modified the standard with ASU 2015-14, "Deferral of the Effective Date." These standards replace existing revenue recognition rules with a comprehensive revenue measurement and recognition standard and expanded disclosure requirements. The new standard becomes effective for our fiscal 2019 with early adoption permitted in fiscal 2018. We are still in the process of determining the impact of the standard on our financial statements and the timing of our adoption. The FASB allows two adoption methods under the new standard. Under one method, a company will apply the rules to contracts in all reporting periods presented. We currently believe we will apply this method of adoption. While we continue to evaluate the impact of the new standard, we believe the standard may require us to implement new revenue recognition processes, which will change our internal controls over revenue recognition.
Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”). Under ASU 2016-02, a lessee will recognize in the balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-to-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The amendments of this ASU are effective for our fiscal 2020, with early adoption permitted. An entity will be required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. We are currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on our financial statements.
22
Stock-based Compensation
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, "Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting," which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The Company is required to adopt the new guidance in fiscal 2018 with early adoption permitted. We are currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-09 will have on the financial statements.
Interest Rate Risk
As of
June 30, 2016
, our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments consisted primarily of money market funds and U.S. Treasury Bills. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we are not subject to any material interest rate risk on these balances.
Foreign Currency Risk
Economic Exposure
As a global company, we face exposure to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our international sales are generally denominated in foreign currencies and this revenue could be materially affected by currency fluctuations. Approximately
44%
of our sales were outside the United States for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
. Our primary exposures are to fluctuations in exchange rates for the U.S. dollar versus the Euro, and to a lesser extent, the Australian dollar, British pound sterling, Canadian dollar, Chinese yuan, Indian rupee, Korean won and Singapore dollar. Changes in currency exchange rates could adversely affect our reported revenues and require us to reduce our prices to remain competitive in foreign markets, which could also have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. Historically, we have periodically reviewed and revised the pricing of our products available to our customers in foreign countries and we have not maintained excess cash balances in foreign accounts.
Transaction Exposure
Our exposure to foreign currency transaction gains and losses is primarily the result of certain net receivables due from our foreign subsidiaries and customers being denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the subsidiary. Our foreign subsidiaries conduct their businesses in local currency and we generally do not maintain excess U.S. dollar cash balances in foreign accounts.
Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are recorded in “General and administrative expenses” in the Consolidated Statements of Loss. We recognized a net foreign currency transaction gain of
$0.3
million in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
. We recognized net foreign currency transaction losses of $0.2 million in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2015
. The net foreign currency transaction gains and losses recorded in “General and administrative” expenses include settlement gains and losses on forward contracts disclosed below.
To date, we have selectively hedged our exposure to foreign currency transaction gains and losses on the balance sheet through the use of forward contracts, which were not designated as hedging instruments. The duration of forward contracts utilized for hedging our balance sheet exposure is generally one to three months. Gains and losses from these contracts are recorded in general and administrative expenses. As of
June 30, 2016
and
March 31, 2016
, we did not have any forward contracts outstanding. We recorded net realized gains and losses of less than $0.1 million related to the settlement of forward exchange contracts in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2016
and 2015. In the future, we may enter into additional foreign currency based hedging contracts to reduce our exposure to significant fluctuations in currency exchange rates on the balance sheet.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of
June 30, 2016
. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of
June 30, 2016
.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the
first
quarter of fiscal 2016 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
23
Inherent Limitations on Internal Controls
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that our disclosures controls and procedures or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
24
From time to time, we are subject to claims in legal proceedings arising in the normal course of our business. Except as discussed below, we do not believe that we are currently party to any pending legal action that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business or operating results.
On September 10, 2014, a purported class action complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey against the Company, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer. The case is captioned In re Commvault Systems, Inc. Securities Litigation (Master File No. 3:14-cv-05628-MAS-LHG). The suit alleges that we made materially false and misleading statements, or failed to disclose material facts, regarding our financial results, business, operations and prospects in violation of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The suit asserts claims covering an alleged class period from May 7, 2013 through April 24, 2014. It is purportedly brought on behalf of purchasers of our common stock during that period, and seeks compensatory damages, costs and expenses, as well as equitable or other relief. Lead plaintiff, the Arkansas Teachers Retirement System, was appointed on January 12, 2015, and on March 18, 2015, an amended complaint was filed by the plaintiffs. On December 17, 2015, the defendant motion to dismiss the case was granted and the case dismissed; however, the plaintiffs were permitted to re-file their claim, which they did on February 5, 2016. Defendants filed another motion to dismiss on April 5, 2016, which remains pending with the court. Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of this matter. We are unable at this time to determine whether the outcome of the litigation will have a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
March 31, 2016
, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. If any of the risks actually occur, our business, financial conditions or results of operations could be negatively affected. In that case, the trading price of our stock could decline, and our stockholders may lose part or all of their investment.
