ICG Announces 2010 Fourth Quarter and Year-End Financial Results

Core Consolidated Revenue Increases 27% in 2010

Metastorm Sale Completed

WAYNE, Pa., Feb. 24, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Internet Capital Group, Inc. (Nasdaq:ICGE) ("ICG") today reported its results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2010.

"We are pleased with our financial results, which were driven by strong performance at each of our consolidated core partner companies," said Walter Buckley, ICG's Chief Executive Officer. "2010 was a pivotal year for ICG, as we set out on a path to refine our business model by focusing on core consolidated companies while monetizing certain equity companies. We successfully executed against these goals by increasing our stake in ICG Commerce to over 80% and, more recently, by monetizing our stake in Metastorm, one of our core equity companies. As we look ahead, we are well positioned to continue to report strong operating results within a simpler, more transparent structure."

Financial Results

ICG's GAAP revenue increased to $33.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2010, up from $24.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. GAAP net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 was $0.3 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to $32.0 million, or $0.87 per diluted share, in the comparable 2009 period. Core consolidated revenue totaled $33.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2010, an increase of 27% from the corresponding 2009 period. Core consolidated EBITDA totaled $5.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2010, compared to $4.0 million in the corresponding 2009 period.  

ICG's GAAP revenue increased to $115.7 million for 2010, up from $90.3 million for 2009. GAAP net income for 2010 was $46.6 million, or $1.26 per diluted share, compared to $15.5 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, for 2009. Core consolidated revenue totaled $117.7 million for 2010, an increase of 27% from 2009.  Core consolidated EBITDA totaled $13.7 million for 2010, compared to $9.3 million for 2009.

ICG Commerce

ICG Commerce reported $28.5 million of revenue for the fourth quarter of 2010, representing an increase of 25% over the comparable 2009 period. ICG Commerce reported $101.1 million of revenue for 2010, representing an increase of 24% over 2009. ICG Commerce's EBITDA, excluding stock-based compensation and unusual items, for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 increased to $6.4 million, up from $4.9 million in the comparable 2009 period. ICG Commerce's EBITDA, excluding stock-based compensation and unusual items, for 2010 increased to $17.1 million, up from $13.4 million in 2009.

Metastorm

On February 17, 2011, the sale of Metastorm to Open Text Corporation was consummated. ICG's portion of the sale proceeds consisted of approximately $53 million, approximately $1.6 million of which has been placed in escrow in connection with a customary indemnification holdback. Subject to any indemnification claims that Open Text may assert, the escrowed sale proceeds will be released to ICG nine months following the closing of the transaction.

2011 Guidance

"As we look forward in 2011, we expect core consolidated revenue for the year to be in the range of $142 million to $148 million, representing 21% to 26% growth over 2010 revenue, and core consolidated EBITDA to be in the range of $16 million to $18 million as we continue to support key growth and expansion efforts at our consolidated partner companies," said Kirk Morgan, Chief Financial Officer at ICG. "Additionally, the proceeds from our recent sale of Metastorm will further strengthen our balance sheet, providing us greater financial flexibility to achieve our goals of owning majority stakes in companies and driving growth."

(A) Core consolidated revenue, core consolidated EBITDA and adjusted operating income (loss) are non-GAAP financial measures and have no standardized measurement prescribed by GAAP. Core consolidated revenue is the sum of the revenue of ICG's three core consolidated companies. Core consolidated EBITDA is the sum of the earnings (losses) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and unusual items of ICG's three core consolidated companies. ICG's management considers charges unusual when they are transactional-driven or non-recurring. Adjusted operating income (loss) is operating income (loss), adjusted for depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, and impairment related and other amounts of ICG's three core consolidated companies. ICG's management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors, potential investors, securities analysts and others that enables each such group to evaluate core consolidated companies' current and future prospects in a similar manner as ICG's management and review results on a comparable basis for all periods presented.
