Safe Harbor
This presentation includes forward-looking statements about QAD and its business. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results and events to differ materially. These risks and uncertainties are detailed in QAD’s SEC filings, including the company's latest Annual Report on Form 10-K dated April 13, 2018 and in particular the section titled “Risk Factors” therein and other periodic reports the company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission thereafter.
This presentation contains certain references to financial measures that have been adjusted to exclude certain expenses and other specified items. These financial measures differ from comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) in that they exclude unusual or non-recurring charges, losses, credits or gains. This presentation identifies the specific items excluded from the comparable GAAP financial measure in the calculation of each non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes that financial presentations excluding the impact of these items provide useful supplemental information that is important to a proper understanding of the Company’s business results by investors. These presentations should not be viewed as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies.
The following is intended to outline QAD’s general product direction. It is intended for information purposes only, and may not be incorporated into any contract. It is not a commitment to deliver any material, code, functional capabilities, and should not be relied upon in making purchasing decisions. The development, release, and timing of any features or functional capabilities described for QAD’s products remains at the sole discretion of QAD.

OUR BIG ERP story
$
7
• Big auto complexities immense
• No best practice for our requirements
• Only Big ERP has “Enterprise” financials
• Big ERP gets auto because of their size
• We can afford Big ERP
• Big ERP is largest ERP so we will succeed
• Going with Big ERP is lowest risk
ONLY ONE assumption is true
9
• 25% of prior employees and budgets
• Simplification and standardization
critical
• Not that special. Business units may do
different things but use similar processes:

COMPLEX
SLOW
COSTLY
CONFLICTS
WIIFM?
Difficult to change due to complex one size fits all
(which fits no one well) approach
Slow to implement while business changes, which
grows gap between design and go-live
Long implementations cost more
Implementation partners benefit when the project is
over time and budget
Users simply want to know ‘what’s in it for me?’
REALITIES OF choosing Big ERP
RISK Long projects create risk in a cyclic market like Auto

“We wanted a single ERP vendor with
robust financials and shared services
that could be implemented rapidly,
and we have found that with QAD.”
