inContact Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2010 Financial Results

Fourth Quarter Produces Significant Incremental Software Revenue and Represents The Third Consecutive Quarter of Record Bookings

SALT LAKE CITY – March 10, 2011 – inContact (NASDAQ: SAAS, the leading provider of on-demand contact center software and contact center agent optimization tools, today reported financial results for fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2010.

“In the fourth quarter, we achieved approximately $500,000 in sequential software revenue growth, largely as a result of our strategic investments in sales and marketing that began earlier in the year,” said Paul Jarman, inContact CEO. “We feel that this momentum represents the beginning of a long term growth trend in software revenues and contributed to several key milestones for the company in fourth quarter.

“In fourth quarter we closed 45 contracts, of which 32 were new contracts and 13 were upsells in existing accounts. These bookings represent a 98% increase in estimated software revenue potential over the bookings in Q4 of 2009. It also represents a 98% increase in the estimated value per contract over the estimated value per contract in Q4 of 2009. The growth in the size of the customers purchasing our solutions is representative of the recent announcement of our strong entry into the European market through our contract with Johnston’s Press, which will ramp to approximately 500 agents by 2012.”

Revenue

Software segment revenue totaled $8.8 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2010, an increase of 11% from $7.9 million in the same period in 2009. For the full year ended December 31, 2010, software segment revenue totaled $33.7 million, an increase of 16% from $29.1 million for 2009. Software segment revenue includes all monthly recurring revenue related to the delivery of our software applications, plus the associated professional services and setup fees.

Consolidated revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2010 was $20.3 million, versus $20.8 million for the same period in 2009. This reflects a decrease of $1.3 million in Telecom segment revenue due to expected attrition, which was offset by an increase of $800,000 in Software segment revenue.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Consolidated gross profit decreased $231,000 in the fourth quarter 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. Software segment gross profit increased $191,000 in the quarter compared to the same period in 2009.

Consolidated gross margin percentage remained flat at 43%. Software segment gross margin percentage decreased to 62% in the fourth quarter compared to 66% for the same period in 2009. Half of this difference is attributable to higher non-cash amortization of previously capitalized software development costs, and the remaining amount is attributable to an investment in professional services and customer services, in order to manage the growth from new customers. Software segment gross margin, excluding non-cash charges, was 72% for Q4 2010 versus 74% for Q4 2009.

Net Income

Net loss for the quarter ended December 31, 2010 was $1.2 million, or ($0.04) per share, as compared to a net income of $332,000 or $0.01 per share for the same period in 2009. Our decrease in net results is primarily due to increased expenditures for software segment marketing activities totaling over $1 million. Included in the quarterly net loss is $1.5 million of depreciation and amortization and $378,000 of stock-based compensation. For the full year ended December 31, 2010, the company reported a net loss of $1.1 million versus a net loss of $2.9 million for 2009.


EBITDAS

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation (EBITDAS) for the fourth quarter was a positive $766,000 versus $2.2 million during the same period in 2009. Our decrease in EBITDAS is primarily due to increased expenditures for software segment marketing activities totaling over $1 million. EBITDAS for the full year ended December 31, 2010 was $6.1 million versus $4.4 million in 2009. EBITDAS is a non-GAAP measure management believes provides important insight into our operating results (see reconciliation of non-GAAP measures below).

“As a result of our strong pipeline, (as exemplified by the two new Fortune Global 500 customers we closed in the first quarter), the growing average deal size, and the accelerating adoption of cloud-based solutions, we see tremendous opportunities for inContact in 2011,” Jarman concluded. “To capitalize on our rapidly building momentum, we will accelerate our successful marketing programs and add new, high-impact demand generation activities; continue our R&D innovation and extend our growing technology partner ecosystem; expand our channel footprint to accelerate partner deal flow; strengthen and grow our newly established international markets in Europe and the Philippines and continue to provide the industry’s best support for our customers.

“Never before in the history of inContact have we seen such meaningful opportunities in this multi-billion dollar industry. We have generated record bookings for the past three consecutive quarters as well as for the year. We are benefiting from the momentum of our marketing investments as cloud technology becomes the choice for more and more businesses. We have the product portfolio, partners, people and market presence required to fuel our growth in 2011 and beyond.”

SEGMENT REPORTING

We operate under two business segments: Software and Telecom. The Software segment includes all monthly recurring revenue related to the delivery of our software applications plus the associated professional services and setup fees related to the software services product features. The Telecom segment includes all voice and data long distance services provided to customers.


For segment reporting, we classify operating expenses as either “direct” or “indirect”. Direct expense refers to costs attributable solely to either selling and marketing efforts or research and development efforts. Indirect expense refers to costs that management considers to be overhead in running the business. Management evaluates expenditures for both selling and marketing and research and development efforts at the segment level without the allocation of overhead expenses, such as rent, utilities and depreciation on property and equipment.

Operating segment revenues and profitability for the quarters and years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were as follows (in thousands):

RECONCILIATION of NON-GAAP MEASURES:

Adjusted Net Income, which is calculated as Net loss less amortization of intangible assets and stock-based compensation, and “EBITDAS,” which is calculated as Earnings Before deductions for Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization, are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Adjusted Net Income and EBITDAS are provided for the use of the reader in understanding our operating results and are not prepared in accordance with, nor do they serve as an alternative to GAAP measures and may be materially different from similar measures used by other companies. While not a substitute for information prepared in accordance with GAAP, management believes that this information is helpful for investors to more easily understand our operating financial performance. Management also believes this measure may better enable an investor to form views of our potential financial performance in the future. This measure has limitations as an analytical tool, and investors should not consider Adjusted Net Income and EBITDAS in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
