DIGI INTERNATIONAL REPORTS FIRST FISCAL QUARTER 2011 RESULTS
MINNEAPOLIS, MN — January 19, 2011 — Digi International® Inc. (NASDAQ: DGII, www.digi.com)
reported revenue of $48.3 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2011, compared with $43.0 million
for the first fiscal quarter of 2010, representing an increase of $5.3 million, or 12.5%. Net
income was $2.3 million, or $0.09 per diluted share in the first fiscal quarter of 2011 compared to
$1.2 million, or $0.05 per diluted share in the year ago comparable quarter. These results for the
first fiscal quarter of 2011 were impacted by favorable tax adjustments of $0.02 per diluted share
that are described elsewhere in this earnings release. Street consensus estimates for the first
fiscal quarter of 2011 included revenue of $47.6 million and earnings per diluted share of $0.08.
Business Results for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2010
Revenue from embedded products in the first fiscal quarter of 2011 was $21.1 million compared to
$18.1 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2010, an increase of $3.0 million, or 16.8%. Revenue
from non-embedded products was $27.2 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2011 compared to $24.9
million in the first fiscal quarter of 2010, an increase of $2.3 million, or 9.3%.
Revenue in North America was $27.7 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2011 compared to $25.5
million in the first fiscal quarter of 2010, an increase of $2.2 million, or 8.7%. Revenue in
Europe was $12.7 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2011 compared to $11.0 million in the
comparable quarter a year ago, an increase of $1.7 million, or 15.0%. Revenue in the Asia region
was $6.1 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2011 compared to $5.4 million in the first fiscal
quarter of 2010, an increase of $0.7 million, or 15.1%. Latin American revenue was $1.8 million in
the first fiscal quarter of 2011 compared to $1.1 million in the comparable quarter a year ago, an
increase of $0.7 million, or 62.6%.
“2011 has started as a year of continued profitability and top-line growth,” said Joe Dunsmore,
Digi’s Chief Executive Officer. “The first fiscal quarter of 2011 marked Digi’s thirty-second
consecutive quarter of profitability. We continued to show solid growth momentum in our wireless
product lines and thus we believe we are in a very strong market position for the remainder of the
fiscal year. We are considerably strengthened in these efforts by the addition of our new Senior
Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Steven E. Snyder, to our management team. We are
benefiting from his industry experience and strategic judgment as we go forward.”
Gross profit was $24.7 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2011 compared to $21.7 million in the
same period in the prior year. The gross margin was 51.0% in the first fiscal quarter of 2011
compared to 50.5% in the first
Digi International Reports First Fiscal Quarter 2011 Results
fiscal quarter of 2010. The gross margin was higher in the first fiscal quarter of 2011 than in
the comparable period a year ago primarily due to customer mix, as well as product cost
reductions and manufacturing efficiencies.
Total operating expenses in the first fiscal quarter of 2011 were $22.0 million, or 45.5% of
revenue, compared to $19.9 million, or 46.2% of revenue, in the first fiscal quarter of 2010. The
increase in operating expenses in the first fiscal quarter of 2011 compared to the same quarter in
the prior year is primarily due to increased investment in the iDigi® platform, increased
headcount, and the reinstatement of the full incentive compensation program that had only partially
been reinstated in the prior fiscal year.
Digi reported operating income of $2.7 million, or 5.5% of net sales, in the first fiscal quarter
of 2011 compared to $1.8 million, or 4.3% of net sales, in the first fiscal quarter of 2010.
Net income was $2.3 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2011, or $0.09 per diluted share,
compared to $1.2 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, in the first fiscal quarter of 2010.
Earnings per diluted share for the first fiscal quarter of 2011 included a discrete tax benefit of
$0.6 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, resulting from the reversal of tax reserves for various
jurisdictions’ tax matters, as well as a discrete benefit resulting from the enactment of
legislation extending the research and development credit that allowed Digi to record tax credits
earned during the last three quarters of fiscal 2010 in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Please
refer to the table reconciling net income and net income per diluted share to non-GAAP net income
and net income per diluted share that is provided later in this earnings release.
Digi’s cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities balance was $91.6 million at December
31, 2010, an increase of $4.0 million over the cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities
balance at September 30, 2010. Please refer to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows
that are included in this earnings release for additional cash flow details. At December 31, 2010,
Digi’s current ratio was 6.5 to 1 compared to 6.7 to 1 at September 30, 2010.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking
terminology such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “target,” “estimate,” “may,” “will,” “expect,” “plan,”
“project,” “should,” or “continue” or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or similar
terminology. Such statements are based on information available to management as of the time of
such statements and relate to, among other things, expectations of the business environment in
which the Company operates, projections of future performance, perceived opportunities in the
market and statements regarding the Company’s mission and vision. Such statements are not
guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions,
including risks related to the highly competitive market in which the Company operates, rapid
changes in technologies that may displace products sold by the Company, declining prices of
networking products, the Company’s reliance on distributors, delays in the Company’s product
development efforts, uncertainty in consumer acceptance of the Company’s products, uncertainty in
global economic conditions which could negatively affect product demand and the financial solvency
of the Company’s customers and suppliers, the ability to achieve the anticipated benefits and
synergies associated with acquisitions, and changes in the Company’s level of revenue or
profitability. These and other risks, uncertainties and assumptions identified from time to time in
the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including without limitation,
its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2010 and its quarterly reports on
Form 10-Q, could cause the Company’s future results to differ materially from those expressed in
any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. Many of such factors are beyond
the Company’s ability to control or predict. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the
date for which they are made. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update publicly any
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
This release includes non-GAAP net income and net income per diluted share data. Management
understands that there are material limitations on the use of non-GAAP measures. Non-GAAP measures
are not substitutes for GAAP measures for the purpose of analyzing financial performance. The
disclosure of these measures does not reflect all charges and gains that were actually recognized
by the Company. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for measures
prepared in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from
non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on
any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Digi believes that non-GAAP measures have
limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with Digi’s results of
operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to
evaluate Digi’s results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.
Digi believes that providing net income and net income per diluted share exclusive of discrete tax
benefits permits investors to compare results with prior periods that did not include these items.
Management uses the aforementioned non-GAAP measures to gain an understanding of the comparative operating performance
of
Digi International Reports First Fiscal Quarter 2011 Results
the Company. In addition, shareholders in the Company have expressed an interest in seeing
financial performance measures exclusive of the impact of decisions relating to taxes, which while
important, are not central to the core operations of Digi’s business.
