Glowpoint Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2009 Results
Anticipates Continued Growth in Revenue and Contribution Margin in 2010

HILLSIDE, N.J. March 31, 2010 – Glowpoint, Inc. (OTCBB: GLOW), a carrier-grade provider of managed services for telepresence and video conferencing, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2009, which included record annualized monthly recurring revenue and positive operating income.

Core revenue was $6.34 million for the quarter, an increase of 14.3% from the comparable period last year. Total annual revenue was $26.5 million versus $24.5 million in 2008. This included non-core revenue of $1.3 million in 2009 which decreased from $2.6 million in 2008. Excluding non-core revenue, which is expected to be eliminated by the end of 2010, total core revenue grew from $21.9 million in 2008 to $25.2 million in 2009, a 14.8% increase. The Company anticipates that its 2010 core revenue growth rate will exceed 20% in 2010. These increases are primarily attributable to the growth of the Company’s VNOC managed service and Telepresence interExchange Network (TEN) service offerings. In addition, the Company expects that its contribution margin will continue to improve throughout the year driven by the continued reduction of our network and infrastructure expenses and global managed service costs as a percentage of sales.

Key highlights for the fourth quarter of 2009 include:
 
·  
Managed Video Services Revenue: Increased by $0.7 million, currently representing 14% of quarterly revenues as compared to 4% in the previous period
 
·  
Core Revenues: Increased 14.3% to $6.34 million for the quarter from $5.54 million in the comparable quarter for 2008
 
·  
Lowered Operating Expenses: Excluding income from the one-time reversal of the sales tax accrual, quarterly operating expenses dropped 8.3% to $6.94 million in 2009, from $7.57 million for the same period in 2008, while total quarterly revenues increased.
 
·  
Settlements in Sales Taxes and Regulatory Fees: Reduced accrual for sales taxes by $3.3 million, from $4.4 million as of last quarter, to $1.1 million to reflect settlements with taxing authorities and amounts that management believes can be reasonably estimated
 
·  
Elimination of “Going Concern”: With the financing announced by the Company yesterday, together with its cash flow projections and current results, the Company eliminated its “going concern” opinion that has been included since its 2006 financial statements.
 
·  
New Financial Statement Format: Provides greater visibility into our operations as we execute on our strategy to increase our focus on being a leading provider of managed video services and hosted cloud-based services for video applications

“The $3 million financing and improvements in our capital structure, which we announced yesterday, provide the Company with capital needed to take advantage of the growing managed video services market,” said Glowpoint Co-CEO David W. Robinson. "We’ve made a significant amount of progress and feel the Company is in a great position to achieve continued positive operating results.”

“The video communications market continues its transformation into a critical component within the unified communications space,” said Glowpoint President and Co-CEO Joseph Laezza. “Now is the time for Glowpoint to focus on our long term growth and profitability through strategic alliances and product development initiatives, while growing our internal sales and marketing efforts. We are extremely well positioned to capitalize on Glowpoint’s leadership in the expanding market for managed video as an integral and driving force behind the growth of unified communications.”
