SYNCHRONOSS TECHNOLOGIES, INC. ANNOUNCES
FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2010 FINANCIAL RESULTS
| • | Fourth quarter non-GAAP total revenue of $51.2 million increases 44% year-over-year |
| • | Fourth quarter non-GAAP operating income of $11.5 million increases 41% year-over-year |
| • | Record customer diversification driven by momentum of our connected device strategy and international efforts |
BRIDGEWATER, NJ – February 7, 2011 – Synchronoss Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: SNCR), the leading global provider of on-demand transaction management software platforms, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2010.
“The fourth quarter was highlighted by revenue that was well above our expectations, and it represented a strong finish to a record year for Synchronoss.” said Stephen G. Waldis, President and Chief Executive Officer of Synchronoss.
“The momentum of our international and connected device strategies is robust as we start 2011. We have plans in place to continue broadening our first major ConvergenceNow® deployment in Europe in addition to significantly expanding our relationship with Verizon Wireless, where we are scaling our ConvergenceNow® Plus+™ deployment,” added Waldis. “The connected device market is expected to grow at a rapid pace at the same time the number and type of devices proliferate. We believe that Synchronoss is well positioned to benefit as the connect-synch-activation capabilities of our technology are enabling tier one carriers and connected device OEMs to gain a competitive advantage by providing a unique, world-class customer experience.”
For the fourth quarter of 2010, Synchronoss reported generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) net revenues of $49.2 million, an increase of 38% compared to the fourth quarter of 2009. Gross profit was $25.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2010. Loss from operations, determined in accordance with GAAP, was $3.2 million, including a $7.4 million earn-out charge related to the FusionOne acquisition. The charge was taken to reflect the increased probability of Synchronoss making earn out payments based on the current and expected performance of FusionOne following the acquisition. GAAP net loss was $4.0 million and GAAP loss per share was ($0.09), compared to GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.14 in the fourth quarter of 2009.
Synchronoss reported non-GAAP net revenues, which adds back the purchase accounting adjustment to FusionOne’s revenues, of $51.2 million, an increase of 44% compared to the fourth quarter of 2009. Non-GAAP gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2010 was $28.9 million, representing a non-GAAP gross margin of 57%. Non-GAAP income from operations was $11.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2010, representing a year-over-year increase of 41% and a non-GAAP operating margin of 22%. Non-GAAP net income, which takes into account adjustments to non-GAAP income from operations, was $7.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2010, leading to non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.21, compared with $0.20 for the fourth quarter of 2009.
Fourth quarter non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was at the high-end of the company’s guidance of $0.20 to $0.21, and included a $0.01 negative impact due to higher shares outstanding following the common stock offering completed during the quarter, which was not anticipated at the time guidance was provided.
A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
Lawrence R. Irving, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer said, “During 2010, Synchronoss made significant investments to expand the capabilities of our transaction management platform enabling cloud-based services , as well as to build out our global presence. We are in the early stages of realizing the payback on those investments as Synchronoss is currently on-boarding more meaningful programs and customers compared to any time in the history of the company.”
Irving added, “We plan to continue investing in R&D and global expansion during 2011 as we believe Synchronoss is well positioned at the center of three powerful long-term growth drivers – connected devices, cloud computing and e-Commerce. Moreover, we believe there is an opportunity to firmly entrench Synchronoss’ market leadership position as our platforms become increasingly integrated with the back office systems of tier one carriers and OEMs on a global scale. We will continue to target strong profitability margins in 2011 even while we invest in our growth drivers, and we remain confident in the long-term scalability of our business model.”
Other Fourth Quarter and Recent Business Highlights:
| • | Business related to AT&T accounted for approximately $27.2 million of revenue, representing 53% of total non-GAAP revenue. Business outside of the AT&T relationship accounted for approximately $24.0 million of non-GAAP revenue, or a record level of 47% of total non-GAAP revenue. |
| • | Synchronoss sold approximately 4.4 million shares of its common stock in a public offering at a price of $25.40 per share, and received approximately $107 million in net proceeds from the offering. |

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Synchronoss has provided in this release selected financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. This information includes historical non-GAAP revenues, operating income, net income, effective tax rate, and earnings per share. Synchronoss uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating Synchronoss’ ongoing operational performance. Synchronoss believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends, and in comparing its financial results with other companies in Synchronoss’ industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. As noted, the non-GAAP financial results discussed above adds back the deferred revenue write-down associated with FusionOne acquisition, fair value stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related costs, restructuring charges, changes in the contingent consideration obligation, deferred compensation expense related to earn outs and amortization of intangibles associated with acquisitions.
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as detailed above. As previously mentioned, a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release.
