Income Statement Items
Revenues
Revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 were
The growth in revenues over the prior quarter and the comparable prior year period was driven by an increase in revenue from both our Enterprise Technology and Service Provider Technology platforms.
Gross Profit Margin - Gross Profit as a percentage of Revenue
During the first quarter of fiscal 2027, GAAP gross profit was
The increase in gross profit margin as compared to the prior quarter and the comparable prior year period was primarily driven by lower indirect costs, offset in part by higher component costs.
Since the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company has experienced an increase in certain component costs. Component costs may continue to rise, and availability may remain constrained. These factors may result in near-term pressure on our gross profit margins, particularly to the extent we are unable to offset higher component costs through pricing or other measures. In addition, ongoing supply constraints could limit our ability to meet customer demand and negatively impact our revenues and gross profit margins.
Research and Development
During the first quarter of fiscal 2027, research and development ("R&D") expenses were
The increase in R&D expenses as compared to the comparable prior year period was primarily driven by higher software expenses, employee-related expenses and facility costs.
Sales, General and Administrative
The Company’s sales, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 were
The increase in SG&A costs as compared to the prior quarter was primarily attributable to higher professional fees and provision for credit losses on accounts receivable, offset in part by lower marketing expenses. The increase in SG&A as compared to the comparable prior year period was primarily driven by higher professional fees, credit card processing fees arising from incremental webstore sales, employee-related expenses, and provision for credit losses on accounts receivable.
Interest Income (Expense) and Other, net
During the first quarter of fiscal 2027, the Company reported interest income (expense) and other, net ("I&O") income of
The increase in I&O income compared to the prior quarter was primarily driven by higher interest income on invested cash. The increase in I&O income as compared to the comparable prior year period was primarily attributable to higher interest income on invested cash and lower interest expense driven by a decrease in outstanding debt.
Net Income and Earnings Per Share
During the first quarter of fiscal 2027, GAAP net income was

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial results prepared under generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, we use non-GAAP measures of net income and earnings per diluted share that are adjusted to exclude certain costs, expenses and gains such as share-based compensation expense and the tax effects of these non-GAAP adjustments.
Reconciliations of the adjustments to GAAP results for the periods presented are provided above. In addition, an explanation of the ways in which management uses non-GAAP financial information to evaluate its business, the substance behind management’s decision to use this non-GAAP financial information, material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial information, the manner in which management compensates for those limitations, and the substantive reasons management believes that this non-GAAP financial information provides useful information to investors is included under the paragraphs below.
Usefulness of Non-GAAP Financial Information to Investors
We believe that the presentation of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share provides important supplemental information regarding non-cash expenses, significant items that we believe are important to understanding our financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and results of operations. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share are among the primary indicators used by management as a basis for planning and forecasting future periods and by management and our board of directors to determine whether our operating performance has met specified targets and thresholds. Management uses non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share when evaluating operating performance because it believes that the exclusion of the items described below, for which the amounts or timing may vary significantly depending upon the Company’s activities and other factors, facilitates comparability of the Company’s operating performance from period to period. We have chosen to provide this information to investors so they can analyze our operating results in the same way that management does and use this information in their assessment of our business and the valuation of our Company.
About our Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Earnings per Diluted Share
We compute non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share by adjusting GAAP net income and GAAP earnings per diluted share to remove the impact of certain adjustments and the tax effect of those adjustments. Items excluded from net income are:
- Share-based compensation expense and
- Tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments, applying the principles of ASC 740.
These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP and may be materially different from other non-GAAP measures, including similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. The presentation of this additional information should not be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or superior to, net income or earnings per diluted share prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results.
For more information on the non-GAAP adjustments, please see the table captioned "Reconciliation of GAAP Net Income to Non-GAAP Net Income" included in this press release.
