Varonis Systems reported stronger third-quarter operating momentum on November 3, but the pending Proofpoint takeover is limiting the information available to investors. The company disclosed the results for the quarter ended September 30 in an earnings release carried by Varonis' earnings release.

Varonis generated 189.5 million US dollars in third-quarter revenue, up from 161.6 million US dollars a year earlier. SaaS revenue rose to 185.1 million US dollars from 125.8 million US dollars, reflecting continued customer migration from term licenses and maintenance services.

SaaS transition drives recurring growth

SaaS annual recurring revenue reached 774.6 million US dollars at the end of September, an increase of 42 percent year over year. Excluding customer conversions, growth was 24 percent, giving investors a clearer view of expansion beyond the migration effect.

GAAP operating loss widened to 47.7 million US dollars from 35.9 million US dollars in the prior-year quarter. On a non-GAAP basis, operating income increased to 7.6 million US dollars from 0.2 million US dollars. The adjusted measure excludes stock-based compensation, related payroll taxes, amortization of acquired intangible assets and acquisition-related expenses.

Acquisition limits financial visibility

Varonis will not provide forward-looking guidance or update earlier guidance and did not hold a conference call for the quarter because of the pending acquisition by Proofpoint. Proofpoint announced on October 15 that it intends to acquire Varonis in an all-cash transaction valued at approximately 6.3 billion US dollars, with shareholders set to receive 49.75 US dollars per share.

Proofpoint said the transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2027, subject to customary closing conditions, including shareholder and regulatory approvals. Until completion, the companies will continue to operate independently, according to Proofpoint's transaction announcement.
