SYNCHRONOSS TECHNOLOGIES, INC. ANNOUNCES
FIRST QUARTER 2011 FINANCIAL RESULTS
| • | Non-GAAP total revenue of $53.4 million increases 52% year-over-year |
| • | Non-GAAP operating income of $12.0 million increases 61% year-over-year |
| • | Non-GAAP EPS of $0.20 increases 43% year-over-year |
BRIDGEWATER, NJ – May 3, 2011 – Synchronoss Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: SNCR), the world’s leading provider of transaction management, cloud enablement and connectivity services for connected devices, today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2011.
“The first quarter was a strong start to the new year, with revenue exceeding our expectations and non-GAAP operating income growing by over 60% year-over-year while at the same time we increased investments in our strategic growth initiatives,” said Stephen G. Waldis, President and Chief Executive Officer of Synchronoss.”
“We believe that Synchronoss’ long-term growth profile continues to improve. We are in the early stages of expanding relationships with major tier one service providers, such as Verizon and Vodafone, and we believe that significant growth potential remains with our largest customer, AT&T. In addition, we will introduce new smart connectivity capabilities to our ConvergenceNow® Plus+™ platform in late 2011 that we believe will enhance our value proposition to service providers and OEMs, further embed Synchronoss directly on devices and expand our market opportunity.”
For the first quarter of 2011, Synchronoss reported generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) net revenues of $52.9 million, an increase of 51% compared to the first quarter of 2010. Gross profit was $28.3 million in the first quarter of 2011. Income from operations, determined in accordance with GAAP, was $1.7 million, including a $4.2 million charge related to the earn-out provision associated with the FusionOne acquisition. The charge was taken to reflect the continued performance of FusionOne following the acquisition, including the company’s visibility into expected contributions for the remainder of 2011. GAAP net income applicable to common stockholders was $1.5 million and GAAP diluted earnings per share were $0.04, compared to $0.09 for the first quarter of 2010.
Synchronoss reported non-GAAP net revenues, which adds back the purchase accounting adjustment to FusionOne’s revenues, of $53.4 million, an increase of 52% compared to the first quarter of 2010. Non-GAAP gross profit for the first quarter of 2011 was $30.1 million, representing a non-GAAP gross margin of 56%. Non-GAAP income from operations was $12.0 million in the first quarter of 2011, representing a year-over-year increase of 61% and a non-GAAP operating margin of 23%. Non-GAAP net income, which takes into account adjustments to non-GAAP income from operations, was $7.8 million in the first quarter of 2011, leading to non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.20, an increase of 43% compared with $0.14 for the first quarter of 2010.
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.”
“Synchronoss expanded its non-GAAP gross margin by approximately 400 basis points on a year-over-year basis, which drove the strong growth in non-GAAP operating income and earnings per share during the quarter,” said Lawrence R. Irving, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. ”While we plan to increase R&D investments in order to accelerate our time to market and meet customer demand for our new SmartMobility™ product, our gross margin and bottom line objectives remain consistent for the full year 2011. Equally important, our increased product investments are a clear reflection of our optimism regarding Synchronoss’ ability to monetize this new and highly complementary market opportunity.”
Other First Quarter and Recent Business Highlights:
| • | Business related to AT&T accounted for approximately $27.1 million of revenue, representing 51% of total non-GAAP revenue. Business outside of the AT&T relationship accounted for approximately $26.3 million of non-GAAP revenue, or a record level of 49% of total non-GAAP revenue for the quarter. Verizon was the largest contributor to Synchronoss’ business outside of AT&T, representing over 10% of the company’s revenue for the quarter. |
| • | Synchronoss issued a separate press release today announcing that it will enhance its ConvergenceNow® Plus+ platform with the addition of SmartMobility™. SmartMobility will drive faster and more efficient device connectivity from the cloud. Synchronoss also announced the acquisition of privately-held Sapience Knowledge Systems, which brings significant domain expertise and will help accelerate Synchronoss’ time to market with its new mobility management products. |
| • | Reached a milestone in scalability with the Company’s ConvergenceNow®Plus+™ platform and its Network Address Book module. The Synchronoss platform has been performing live production deployments routinely supporting more than 4,000 transactions per minute and managing bursts in excess of 400 transactions per second when needed. |
| • | Expanded its ConvergenceNow® Plus+™ platform’s Content Transfer & Synchronization module to migrate content over the air between connected devices for the iPhone® to both GSM and CDMA versions. The expanded support offers consumers more choice and further enables them to transfer their contacts and content when moving between mobile devices. |
| • | Introduced the Enterprise Edition of the Company’s ConvergenceNow® Platform, includes a customized portal for operator administrators, customer account managers and individual subscribers that is designed to streamline the ordering and provisioning process for wireless devices and communication services. |

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 add back the deferred revenue write-down associated with FusionOne acquisition, fair value stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related costs, 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.
