Guidance for 2011 Annual Performance
DealerTrack’s revenue and GAAP and non-GAAP earnings guidance for the full year 2011 is as follows:

 
 

 

 
Expected GAAP Results
§
Revenue for the year is expected to be between $316.0 million and $324.0 million, net of approximately $3.7 million of contra-revenue.
§
GAAP net income for the year is expected to be between $2.9 million and $5.4 million.
§
Diluted GAAP net income per share for the year is expected to be between $0.07 and $0.13.

Expected Non-GAAP Results
§
Adjusted EBITDA for the year is expected to be between $57.0 million and $61.0 million.
§
Adjusted net income for the year is expected to be between $29.2 million and $31.7 million.
§
Diluted adjusted net income per share for the year is expected to be between $0.68 and $0.74.

GAAP net income and adjusted net income per share guidance for the year are based on an assumed 42.8 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding.   The guidance assumes that for 2011 new car sales will be approximately 12.8 million units and used car sales will be approximately 13.0 million units.  The guidance also includes the impact of DealerTrack’s recent acquisition of triVIN Holdings, Inc. which closed at the end of January.

Mark O’Neil, chairman and chief executive officer of DealerTrack, commented, “We are very pleased with our non-GAAP results for the fourth quarter as our businesses benefited from an improving operating environment.”  O’Neil continued, “We are continuing to see the benefits of our investments as we generated an adjusted EBITDA margin in excess of 20 percent for the second consecutive quarter.”

Conference Call

DealerTrack will host a conference call to discuss its fourth quarter and full year 2010 results and other matters on February 16, 2011 at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time.  The conference call will be webcast live on the Internet at http://ir.dealertrack.com/eventdetail.cfm?eventid=91881. In addition, a live audio of the call will be accessible to the public by calling 877-303-6648 (domestic) or 970-315-0443 (international); no access code is necessary. Callers should dial in approximately 10 minutes before the call begins. A replay will be available on the DealerTrack website until March 9, 2011.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The non-GAAP measures of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income disclosures are not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and are not intended to be used in lieu of GAAP presentations of net income. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP net income (loss) excluding interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses, contra-revenue and may exclude certain items such as:  impairment charges, restructuring charges, acquisition-related earn-out compensation expense and professional service fees, realized gains or (losses) on securities and certain other non-recurring items.  Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP net income (loss) excluding stock-based compensation expense, the amortization of acquired identifiable intangibles, contra-revenueand may also exclude certain items, such as: impairment charges, restructuring charges, acquisition-related earn-out compensation expense and professional service fees, realized gains or (losses) on securities and certain other non-recurring items.  These adjustments to net income, which are shown before taxes, are adjusted for their tax impact.

Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income are presented because management believes they provide additional information with respect to the performance of our fundamental business activities as the purchase accounting treatment of acquisitions can have a negative impact on our GAAP results because the depreciation and amortization expenses associated with acquired assets, as well as particular intangibles (which tend to have a relatively short useful life), can be substantial in the first several years following an acquisition. As a result, we monitor our adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income and other business statistics as a measure of operating performance in addition to net income and the other measures included in our consolidated financial statements. Management believes the adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income information is useful to investors for these reasons. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance. Management believes the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income is GAAP net income and has provided a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income and adjusted net income to GAAP net income, in Attachment 4 to this press release.
