"The continued strong execution around our growth pillars of cloud, analytics and artificial intelligence led to another quarter of double digit increases in total revenue and earnings per share. For each of these growth pillars, we believe that we are still at the early stage of our journey with a long runway for growth ahead of us," said Barak Eilam, CEO, NICE.

Mr. Eilam continued, "A major part of this journey is the cloud, which grew 28% this quarter and is being driven by the continued success of our CXone platform, the only true, native, open cloud platform in the industry encompassing the broadest portfolio of customer experience solutions. We are witnessing a growing movement of large enterprises shifting to the cloud, and we are capturing an increasing number of these opportunities with CXone.

Analytics was also a healthy contributor to the strong results in the second quarter. Analytics solutions infused with artificial intelligence, like robotic process automation and ActimizeWatch, are helping to fuel the continued success of our analytics portfolio."

Non-GAAP financial measures consist of GAAP financial measures adjusted to exclude: amortization of acquired intangible assets, share-based compensation, certain business combination accounting entries, amortization of discount on long term debt, ASC 606 to ASC 605 adjustments and tax adjustment re non-GAAP adjustments. The purpose of such adjustments is to give an indication of our performance exclusive of non-cash charges and other items that are considered by management to be outside of our core operating results. Our non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures, and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our management regularly uses our supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate our business and make operating decisions. These non-GAAP measures are among the primary factors management uses in planning for and forecasting future periods. Business combination accounting rules requires us to recognize a legal performance obligation related to a revenue arrangement of an acquired entity. The amount assigned to that liability should be based on its fair value at the date of acquisition. The non-GAAP adjustment is intended to reflect the full amount of such revenue. We believe this adjustment is useful to investors as a measure of the ongoing performance of our business. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide consistent and comparable measures to help investors understand our current and future operating cash flow performance. These non-GAAP financial measures may differ materially from the non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Reconciliation between results on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis is provided in a table immediately following the Consolidated Statements of Income.
