Management Commentary
"Financial and operational results for the fourth quarter capped off a successful year for ClickSoftware. Specifically, strong bookings of $21 million in the quarter - almost double than the third quarter's level - contributed to a substantial increase in our backlog and deferred revenues which amounted to $27.4 million at the end of the year. In 2009, we acquired a record number of new customers that are globally diverse. APX Alarm, Cable and Wireless, Cez Group, Severn Trent Water, NHS Highland, Portugal Telecom and ROK are some of the companies that recognized the value of ClickSoftware, and came on board during the challenging economy of 2009," said Dr. Moshe BenBassat, ClickSoftware's Chairman and CEO. "While focusing on execution to achieve the results of 2009, we continued to build the platform that, we believe, will accelerate our growth in 2010 and beyond. Our R&D group had a productive year and with three acquisitions in 2009 we enter 2010 with four growth engines: enterprise field force optimization, mobility, shift planning, and small-medium business solutions based on our SaaS offering," he added.
Outlook
For 2010, the Company currently expects to achieve revenues in the approximate range of $71.5 to $74.5 million, representing about 17% to 22% growth over 2009. This outlook is based on $27.4 million in backlog and deferred revenues - which are about 37.5% of 2010 mid revenue target - and current visibility into a growing sales pipeline.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Results
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company's earnings release contains Non-GAAP financial measures of net income and net income per share that exclude the effects of share-based compensation in accordance with the requirements of ASC 718 (originally issued as SFAS No. 123R, "Share-based Payment" ("123R")), tax benefit related to the update of deferred tax asset and the amortization of acquired intangible assets. The Company's management believes the Non-GAAP financial information provided in this release is useful to investors' understanding and assessment of the Company's on-going core operations and prospects for the future. Management also uses both GAAP and Non-GAAP information in evaluating and operating business internally and as such deemed it important to provide all this information to investors. The Non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. Reconciliations between GAAP measures and Non-GAAP measures are provided later in this press release.
