“We made continued progress in the third quarter, further strengthening our product offering and go-to-market strategy, both of which will be key drivers of our future growth. Our focus on accelerating product development resulted in hiring additional engineering talent to improve the rate at which we can launch new features, specifically for our largest platform, Dice. We also added new commercial sales people – and with our new CRO, Arie Kanofsky, now on board – we will be expanding our commercial sales force significantly over the next few quarters. We believe these investments will further anchor DHI as an industry leader for matching technologists with employers and position the Company to generate sustained long-term revenue growth in the future.”

Business Outlook

DHI expects ongoing tech-focused¹ revenue for the fourth quarter to be sequentially flat with the third quarter and anticipates that Dice revenue will turn to positive year-over-year growth in 2020. The Company continues to expect Adjusted EBITDA margin² for the full 2019 fiscal year to be approximately 23%, as it continues to increase its product and engineering capacity, as well as invest in more sales resources to accelerate growth. The Company is not providing guidance for net income because it cannot reasonably assess the impact of stock-based compensation and income tax expense.
