3. This presentation includes forward-looking statements. These statements relate to, among other things, our future financial and operating performance, including our GAAP and non-GAAP guidance, the
growth of the learning and human capital management market, our business strategy, and our plans and objectives for future operations. In light of the risks and uncertainties outlined below, the future
events and circumstances discussed in this presentation may not occur, and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. The Company has
based these forward-looking statements largely on its current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends affecting its business. Forward-looking statements should not be read as
guarantees of future performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by, which such performance or results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are
based on information available at the date of this presentation and management’s good faith belief as of such date with respect to future events, and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could
cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not
limited to:
• Statements regarding the Company’s business strategies;
• The Company’s anticipated future operating results and operating expenses;
• The Company’s ability to attract new clients to enter into subscriptions for its solution;
• The Company’s ability to service those clients effectively and induce them to renew and upgrade their deployments of the Company’s solution;
• The Company’s ability to expand its sales organization to address effectively the new industries, geographies and types of organizations the company intends to target;
• The Company’s ability to accurately forecast revenue and appropriately plan its expenses; market acceptance of enhanced solutions, alternate ways of addressing learning and talent management
needs or new technologies generally by the Company and its competitors; continued acceptance of SaaS as an effective method for delivering learning and talent management solutions and other
business management applications; the attraction and retention of qualified employees and key personnel;
• The Company’s ability to protect and defend its intellectual property; costs associated with defending intellectual property infringement and other claims; events in the markets for the Company’s
solution and alternatives to the Company’s solution, as well as in the United States and global markets generally; future regulatory, judicial and legislative changes in the Company’s industry; changes
in the competitive environment in the Company’s industry and the markets in which the Company operates; and other factors discussed under “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this presentation. You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statement. The Company assumes no obligation to update any
forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting future performance or results, except to the extent required by applicable laws. If the
Company updates one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that it will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements.
In addition to U.S. GAAP financials, this presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, not a substitute for or superior to, measures of
financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Please see the discussion of these non-GAAP financial measures and their reconciliations to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP
measures in the Company’s press release dated February 13, 2018.

58. The Workday “Threat” Has Been Overblown
58
Cornerstone only competes
with Workday in a subset of
it’s total business
Workday primarily competes
in the United states
Workday is ONLY selling talent
to their ERP base

59. 1. Sales focus had been on “easy wins” (i.e. services) at the
expense of recurring sales which drive growth (Recruiting,
Performance, Cornerstone HR)
2. Company missed a product cycle when LEPs came to market
3. Some damage was self-inflicted,especiallyin the Enterprisesegment
4. Marketing message has been weak; market does not
understand breadth of Cornerstone’s capabilities
5. Sales processes are sub-optimized and need major over-haul
So What is the Issue?

• 2018 financial statements and guidance reported under 606 to reflect adoption of
new accounting standard
• Financial statements footnotes will include 2018 results reported under 605
• New disclosure in first quarter 10-Q will provide total backlog
• One-Time Financial Impacts from Adopting ASC 606 (On Jan. 1, 2018)
• Reduction of $7M in deferred revenue with an increase to shareholder equity
• Increase of $16M in deferred commissions with an increase to shareholder equity
*Update from previous guidance of $29M in deferred commissions
• 2018 Financial Impacts
• ~$3M total revenue headwind
• Slight increase to commission expense
• ~$3M operating profit headwind
• No impact to cash flow
• Expect Commission accounting to improve margins by 2pts over the next several years
