NetSuite Announces Record Second Quarter 2008 Results

                Revenue of $36.6 Million Up 43% Over Q2 2007

         Short-Term Deferred Revenue Growth Rate More than Doubles

                            Quarter-Over-Quarter

                    Reiterates Fiscal Year 2008 Outlook



    SAN MATEO, Calif., Aug. 5 /EMWNews/ -- NetSuite Inc.

(NYSE: N), a leading vendor of on-demand, integrated business management

software suites for mid-market enterprises and divisions of large

companies, today announced operating results for its second quarter, which

ended June 30, 2008.



    



    Total revenue for the second quarter was $36.6 million, a 43% increase

over the second quarter of 2007, and a 7% increase over the first quarter

of 2008. The second quarter of 2008 marked the 35th consecutive quarter of

increased revenue for NetSuite.



    On a GAAP basis, net loss for the second quarter of 2008 was $(3.1

million), or $(0.05) per share, compared to $(9.6 million), or $(1.22) per

share in the second quarter of 2007, an improvement of 67%.



    Net loss on a non-GAAP basis for the second quarter of 2008 was $(0.9

million), or $(0.01) per share, compared with $(1.4 million), or $(0.02)

per share in the second quarter of 2007, an improvement of 34%.



    Net loss on a non-GAAP basis excludes expenses related to stock-based

compensation and the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets.

A reconciliation of net loss and net loss per share on a non-GAAP basis to

their comparable measures on a GAAP basis is provided below in a table

immediately following the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.



    Revenue from the Americas for the second quarter of 2008 was $29.2

million, while revenue from international regions outside of the Americas

was $7.4 million, and now comprises 20% of total revenue. The Company added

more than 400 new customers in the second quarter.



    Short-term deferred revenue grew by 5% to $63.9 million over the first

quarter of 2008. This is compared to a growth rate of 2% in the first

quarter of 2008 over the fourth quarter of 2007, a 127% improvement in the

rate of growth. These comparisons exclude the accounting impact of the

Company's 2006 partnership agreements related to its Japanese subsidiary.



    "While traditional mid-market application vendors struggle, our growth

and record Q2 results validate our belief that mid-sized companies are

hungry for an integrated suite of applications delivered on demand," said

Zach Nelson, CEO of NetSuite. "Our continued success indicates that adding

industry- specific functionality to support the needs of larger

organizations, and investing in the services and support that make

customers successful with NetSuite, are the right strategies and will

continue to expand our market."

    In particular, the following factors, among others, could cause results

to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such

more slowly than expected; quarterly operating results may fluctuate more

than expected; unexpected disruptions of service at the Company's data

center may occur; a security breach may impact operations; risks associated

with material defects or errors in the Company's software or the effect of

recently completed acquisition; our ability to identify and successfully

integrate other businesses and technologies; the risk of loss of power or

disruption in Internet service; failure to manage growth; the ability to

manage operations when faced with competitive pricing and marketing

strategies by competitors; the risk of losing key employees; increased

demands on employees and costs associated with operating as a public

company; evolving government regulation of the Internet and Ecommerce;

changes to current accounting rules; general political, economic and market

conditions and events, including war, conflict or acts of terrorism; and

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures



    The Company's stated results include certain non-GAAP financial

measures, including net loss, weighted average shares outstanding, and net

loss per share. Non-GAAP net loss also excludes expenses related to the

amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets. Non-GAAP net loss

excludes these expenses as they are non-cash items, can be difficult to

predict, and are often excluded by other companies. Additionally, non-GAAP

weighted average shares outstanding, the denominator for the non-GAAP net

loss per share calculation for the periods during 2007, assumes that the

conversion of preferred stock and the issuance of common stock as part of

the Company's Initial Public Offering had occurred at the beginning of the

applicable period. The Company considers these events to be non-routine,

and believes these adjustments provide useful comparative information to

investors.



    The Company considers these non-GAAP financial measures to be important

because they provide useful measures of the operational performance of the

Company and are used by the Company's management for that purpose. In

addition, investors often use measures such as these to evaluate the

financial performance of a company. Non-GAAP results are presented for

supplemental informational purposes only for understanding the Company's

operating results. The non-GAAP results should not be considered a

substitute for financial information presented in accordance with generally

accepted accounting principles, and may be different from non-GAAP measures

used by other companies.

We believe these adjustments are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our past financial performance and also our prospects for the future. These adjustments to our current period GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of NetSuite's underlying operating results and trends and our marketplace performance. The non- GAAP results are an indication of our baseline performance that are considered by management for the purpose of making operational decisions. In addition, these non-GAAP results are the primary indicators management uses as a basis for our planning and forecasting of future periods. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net loss or basic and diluted net loss per share prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Non-GAAP financial measures are not based on a comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and are subject to limitations. (a) Stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R) for options granted after January 1, 2007, and Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 for options granted before January 1, 2007. Amortization of intangible assets resulted from the acquisition of OpenAir, Inc. While a large component of our expense in certain periods, we believe investors may want to exclude the effects of stock-based compensation expense and the amortization of intangible assets in order to compare our financial performance with that of other companies and between time periods. (b) Represents common shares issued in the company's IPO as if the shares were issued as of the beginning of the comparable periods. We believe investors may want to give effect to the issuance for prior periods in order to compare our financial performance with that of other companies and between time periods. (c) Represents common shares from the conversion of convertible preferred shares as if the shares were converted as of the beginning of the comparable periods. Convertible preferred shares were converted into common shares as of December 20, 2007, the date of our IPO. We believe investors may want to give effect to the conversion for prior periods in order to compare our financial performance with that of other companies and between time periods. NetSuite Inc.
