PALO ALTO, Calif., Jan. 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW) the global leader in virtualization solutions from the desktop to the datacenter, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2007:
"VMware executed at a remarkable pace in 2007 as customer interest and partner attention increased several fold," said Diane Greene, president and chief executive officer of VMware. "We begin 2008 with more than 100,000 customers, 500 technology and consulting partners, nearly 10,000 go-to-market partners, and more than 5,000 employees. As others begin to enter the market, VMware and our partners are continuing to broaden and deepen our highly reliable end-to-end virtualization solutions.
"From the desktop to the datacenter, VMware products are providing significant capital and operational cost savings to customers," continued Greene. "VMware is enabling organizations of all sizes to deploy and manage two to three times the number of application workloads per administrator, while using four to 10 times less data center capacity. VMware's vision for the virtual datacenter is delivering tremendous value to our customers today and our product pipeline for 2008 promises to deliver much more."
VMware plans to host a conference call today to review its fourth-quarter and full-year financial results and provide forward-looking guidance for 2008. The call is scheduled to begin at 2:00 p.m. PT/ 5:00 p.m. ET and can be accessed via the Web at http://ir.vmware.com. The Internet broadcast and related slides will be available live, and a replay will be available following completion of the live broadcast for approximately 30 days.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
VMware has provided a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure used in this earnings release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. These non-GAAP financial measures, which are used as measures of VMware's performance, should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or in isolation from, measures of VMware's financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. These measures differ from GAAP in that they exclude stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, the write-off of in-process research and development, and the net effect of the amortization and capitalization of software development costs under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86 ("FAS86"), VMware's bases for these adjustments are described below.
VMware's management uses the non-GAAP financial measures referenced in this release and shown in the accompanying schedules to gain an understanding of VMware's comparative operating results (when comparing such results with previous periods or forecasts) and its future prospects and excludes the above-listed items (stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, write-off of in-process research and development, and the net effect of the amortization and capitalization of software development costs under FAS86) from its internal operating plans and measurement of financial performance, including budgeting, calculating bonus payments, and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures are used by VMware's management in their financial and operating decision-making because management believes they reflect VMware's ongoing business in a manner that allows meaningful period-to-period comparisons. As the non-GAAP financial measures exclude non-cash expenses that VMware believes are not reflective of ongoing operating results, management believes the non-GAAP financial measures enable management to better analyze trends in its business. VMware's management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others (a) in understanding and evaluating VMware's current operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management does, if they so choose, and (b) in comparing in a consistent manner VMware's current financial results with VMware's past financial results.
In addition to the foregoing, management believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors and others in assessing VMware's operating performance due to the following factors:
VMware's non-GAAP financial measures may be defined differently than similar terms used by other companies and, accordingly, may not be comparable to similarly-titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. There are significant limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures. Specifically, the non-GAAP financial measures that exclude stock-based compensation, intangible amortization, in-process research and development, and the net effect of the amortization and capitalization of software development costs under FAS86, do not include all items of income and expense that affect VMware's operations. More specifically, in the case of stock-based compensation, if VMware did not pay out a portion of its compensation in the form of stock-based compensation, the cash salary expense included in costs of revenues and operating expenses would be higher. In the case of intangible amortization, while not directly affecting VMware's cash position, it represents the loss of value of intangible assets over time. As a result, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share, which exclude this expense, do not reflect the full economic loss in value of those intangible assets. Management compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to VMware's financial results as determined in accordance with GAAP, which reconciliations are set forth in the accompanying schedules to this release, in the current report on Form 8-K furnished to the SEC on the date hereof and on http://ir.vmware.com.
