Digital River Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2009 Financial Results
Reports Record Fourth Quarter Revenue Performance
MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--January 28, 2010--Digital River, Inc. (NASDAQ: DRIV), a leading provider of global e-commerce solutions, reports its fourth quarter and full year financial results.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year Ended Dec. 31, 2009
GAAP Results
Fourth quarter revenue totaled $104.9 million, compared to $95.9 million during the same period in 2008. These results exceeded management’s fourth quarter revenue guidance of $94 - 98 million. For the full year 2009, Digital River reported revenue of $403.8 million, compared to $394.2 million reported in 2008.
Fourth quarter GAAP net income was $13.6 million, or $0.36 per diluted share. This compared to GAAP net income of $16.5 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2008. These results exceeded management’s fourth quarter earnings guidance of $0.18 - $0.22 per diluted share. For the full year 2009, GAAP net income was $53.0 million, or $1.41 per diluted share. This compared to GAAP net income of $63.6 million, or $1.55 per diluted share, during the same period in 2008.
Non-GAAP Results
Fourth quarter non-GAAP net income was $15.3 million, or $0.40 per diluted share. This compared to non-GAAP net income of $19.8 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2008. These results exceeded management’s fourth quarter earnings guidance of $0.30 - $0.34 per diluted share. For the full year 2009, non-GAAP net income was $67.8 million, or $1.80 per diluted share. This compared to non-GAAP net income of $78.3 million, or $1.86 per diluted share in 2008.
Non-GAAP net income is computed by starting with GAAP pre-tax income as reported on the company’s statement of income, then adding back amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, stock-based compensation expense and restructuring related charges to calculate non-GAAP pre-tax income. This amount is then taxed at 27 percent to arrive at non-GAAP net income. This amount is then divided by fully-diluted GAAP shares outstanding to derive non-GAAP diluted net income per share. To provide further clarity, a detailed reconciliation on the comparability of the GAAP and non-GAAP data has been provided in table form following the financial statements accompanying this release.
“In the fourth quarter, we reported record revenue and our results exceeded expectations. For the first time since the recession hit, we are seeing top-line, year-over-year growth rates in line with 2007 and 2008 organic growth rates,” said Joel Ronning, Digital River’s CEO. “As part of our 2010 operating plan, we expect returns on our recent investments in sales and new products, while we focus on improving our scalability and efficiency.”
First Quarter 2010 Guidance
Management’s expectation for forward-looking guidance for the first quarter, ending March 31, 2010, is as follows:
-
Total revenue of $95 - $99 million;
- Revenue, excluding Symantec, is expected to be approximately $80 - $81 million;
- Revenue related to Symantec products is expected to be between $15 - $18 million;
- GAAP diluted net income per share of $0.05 - $0.10, assuming a 27 percent tax rate; and
- Non-GAAP diluted net income per share of $0.18 - $0.23, assuming a 27 percent tax rate.
