CONTINUOUS ACCOUNTING AS THE BLUEPRINT FOR MODERN FINANCE:KEY TOPIC AT INTHEBLACK EMEA 2017

LONDON and LOS ANGELES – May 31, 2017 – Financial controls and automation software company BlackLine, Inc. (Nasdaq: BL) will host InTheBlack (ITB) EMEA 2017, its seventh annual European User Conference, next week in London, home of the company’s EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) headquarters. The conference will feature speakers from BlackLine customers, including British Gas, Dentsu Aegis, Maersk Line, Tarmac and Telenor, with Finance and Accounting (F&A) professionals sharing best practices learned in transforming their organization’s processes using BlackLine’s cloud-based platform. Representatives from SAP, FSN and The Hackett Group also will provide insight on leveraging technology to streamline F&A operations.

A key theme for this year’s conference is Continuous Accounting, an advance over the traditional record-to-report process where real-time automation, controls and period-end tasks are embedded within day-to-day activities enabling companies to continually capture, validate and analyze financial data in a timely and precise manner.

F&A team members from other BlackLine customer companies from around the world are registered to attend, joining BlackLine’s team of experts in London. As part of the company’s ongoing commitment to provide its EMEA customers with superior service, BlackLine has designed the two-day event as an interactive forum for attendees to share their ideas on how F&A can get the most value out of the BlackLine platform. Through a dual-track program, both new and experienced users will be given an opportunity to:

·Learn best practices from BlackLine’s team of experts and other customers

·Hear how experienced users from other regional companies creatively use BlackLine

·Preview upcoming software enhancements

·Directly influence the product direction going forward
