On a Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) basis, total revenue for the third quarter 2006 was $27.0 million, an increase of 46% from the $18.4 million reported in the third quarter of 2005. License revenue was $7.2 million, compared to $6.6 million a year ago. GAAP net loss was $2.7 million, or $0.11 per share fully diluted, compared to net income of $0.1 million, or $0.01 per share fully diluted, reported in the third quarter of 2005.
Deferred revenue on a GAAP basis at the end of the third quarter increased 59% year over year to end the quarter at $25.4 million, compared to $16.0 million for the same quarter of the previous year.
Non-GAAP revenue in the third quarter of 2006 increased by 49% to $27.5 million from revenue of $18.5 million as reported for the third quarter of 2005. License revenue was $7.5 million, compared to $6.7 million a year ago. Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter was $1.1 million, or $0.04 per share fully diluted, compared to non-GAAP net income of $1.3 million, or $0.06 per share fully diluted, for the third quarter a year ago.
Non-GAAP results exclude the impact of certain one-time charges primarily related to restructuring activities, and non-cash accounting adjustments and charges primarily related to acquisition accounting and stock-based compensation. A reconciliation to the GAAP results is provided in the attached statements.
"Our record revenue for the third quarter was driven by continued strong demand for our LMS solutions from both new and existing customers," said Don Fowler, SumTotal's chief executive officer. "We experienced particular strength in sales in the healthcare and financial services segments, demonstrating our continued traction in our target market segments. While I am disappointed with our higher-than-anticipated service expenses, I expect to see improvement this quarter in our service margins."
