  • Non-GAAP net income was $1.0 million for the first quarter of 2011, compared to $1.6 million for the same period last year. Non-GAAP diluted net income per share was $0.05 for the first quarter of 2011, based on 19.4 million weighted average diluted shares outstanding, compared to non-GAAP diluted net income of $0.11 for the same period last year, based on 14.4 million weighted average diluted shares outstanding.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $1.6 million for the first quarter of 2011, down $0.6 million compared to the same period last year due to public company costs and increased investments in sales and marketing and research and development.

2011 Guidance

Convio is reaffirming its guidance for full year 2011 revenue of approximately $77.5 million to $79.5 million, or 11 to 14 percent annual growth over full year 2010. The company expects diluted non-GAAP net income per share for 2011 to be approximately $0.38 to $0.41, assuming an average weighted diluted share count of approximately 20.1 million shares.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

Management believes that adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income are useful measures of operating performance because they exclude items that we do not consider indicative of our core performance. In the case of adjusted EBITDA, we adjust net income for such things as interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, acquisition related costs and certain non-cash and non-recurring items. Non-GAAP net income adds to net income (loss) amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, acquisition related costs and certain non-cash and non-recurring items such as the gain (loss) on preferred stock warrant revaluation. However, these non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, operating income and net income, or other financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliation to the GAAP equivalents of these non-GAAP measures is contained in tabular form on the attached unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.


Our management uses adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income as measures of operating performance; to prepare our annual operating budget; to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of our business; to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies; to provide consistency and comparability with past financial performance; to facilitate a comparison of our results with those of other companies; and in communications with our board of directors concerning our financial performance.
