“We have clearly gained traction and market share in enterprise software,” said CEO John Chen in a statement this morning. “We more than doubled our software and licensing revenue in Q4 and exceeded our target of $500 million for the full year. Looking to FY 2017, our strategy is on track and our growth engines are in place to continue to generate above market growth in software and achieve our profitability objectives.”

The GAAP gross margin was $210 million or 45.3% of revenue. Excluding the resource alignment program charges, the non-GAAP gross margin was $237 million or 48.7% of revenue. Charges related to the program were about $180 million pretax.
