Doug Robinson, Verint CFO, added, "Throughout this year we delivered strong SaaS metrics and are pleased with our cloud transition. We are also pleased with our ability to manage through the FX environment with a natural hedge on the bottom line. In Q3, we saw a change in behavior from our perpetual license customers and expect perpetual revenue to come in lower than our original outlook. Our current outlook reflects continued strong SaaS growth, including an acceleration in New SaaS ACV bookings in the second half of the year, as well as a continued perpetual revenue decline."

Share Buyback Program

Verint today also announced that our Board of Directors has authorized a new share repurchase program whereby we may repurchase up to $200 million of common stock over the period from December 12, 2022 until January 31, 2025. We may utilize a number of different methods to effect the repurchases, including but not limited to, open market purchases and accelerated share repurchases, and some or all of the repurchases may be made through Rule 10b5-1 plans. The specific timing, price, and size of purchases will depend on prevailing stock prices, general market and economic conditions, and other considerations. The program may be extended, suspended, or discontinued at any time without prior notice and does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of common stock.

Mr. Bodner continued, "Long term, we operate in a favorable market that supports sustainable SaaS growth. Our new $200 million share buyback program reflects the confidence we have in our long term opportunity."

We are unable, without unreasonable efforts, to provide a reconciliation for other GAAP measures which are excluded from our non-GAAP outlook, including the impact of future business acquisitions or acquisition expenses, future restructuring expenses, and non-GAAP income tax adjustments due to the level of unpredictability and uncertainty associated with these items. For these same reasons, we are unable to assess the probable significance of these excluded items.
