LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – May 11, 2011 — Acxiom® Corporation (Nasdaq: ACXM), a recognized leader in marketing services and technology, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2011. Acxiom will hold a conference call at 10:00 a.m. CDT today to further discuss this information. Interested parties are invited to listen to the call, which will be broadcast via the Internet at www.acxiom.com. The company will reference presentation slides that will be available on the website prior to the call.

Jerry Gramaglia, Acxiom’s interim chief executive officer, said, “Our results for the fourth quarter and for the entire fiscal 2011 year were in line with our expectations expressed in our March 30th announcement. In the fourth quarter and continuing into fiscal year 2012, Acxiom’s focus is on delivering exceptional value to the world’s top marketers. In turn, we continue to be rewarded with long term renewals and significantly expanded business relationships.”

Fourth Quarter 2011 Highlights:

Loss from operations of $53.0 million in the current-year fourth quarter compared to income from operations of $35.2 million in the fourth quarter of the prior year. Excluding the impact of unusual items, income from operations in the current quarter would be $34.9 million, a 4.3% increase over the prior-year quarter.

Loss per diluted share attributable to Acxiom stockholders of $0.83 in the current quarter, compared to earnings per share of $0.21 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010. Excluding the impact of unusual items in both periods, earnings per diluted share attributable to Acxiom stockholders would be $0.21 in the current period, a 10.5% increase over $0.19 the prior-year quarter.

Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially. The following are factors, among others, that could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements: the possibility that certain contracts may not generate the anticipated revenue or profitability or may not be closed within the anticipated time frames; the possibility that significant customers may experience extreme, severe economic difficulty or otherwise reduce the amount of business they do with us; the possibility that we will not successfully complete customer contract requirements on time or meet the service levels specified in the contracts, which may result in contract penalties or lost revenue; the possibility that data suppliers might withdraw data from us, leading to our inability to provide certain products and services to our clients, which could lead to decreases in our operating results; the possibility that we may not be able to attract, retain or motivate qualified technical, sales and leadership associates, or that we may lose key associates; the possibility that we may be unable to quickly and seamlessly integrate a new chief executive officer and chief financial officer; the possibility that we will not be able to continue to receive credit upon satisfactory terms and conditions; the possibility that negative changes in economic conditions in general or other conditions might lead to a reduction in demand for our products and services; the possibility that there will be changes in consumer or business information industries and markets that negatively impact the company; the possibility that the historical seasonality of our business may change; the possibility that we will not be able to achieve cost reductions and avoid unanticipated costs; the possibility that the fair value of certain of our assets may not be equal to the carrying value of those assets now or in future time periods; the possibility that changes in accounting pronouncements may occur and may impact these forward-looking statements; the possibility that we may encounter difficulties when entering new markets or industries; the possibility that we could experience loss of data center capacity or interruption of telecommunication links; and other risks and uncertainties, including those detailed from time to time in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our current reports on Form 8-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and annual reports on Form 10-K, particularly the discussion under the caption “Item 1A, RISK FACTORS” in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2010, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 26, 2010.

With respect to the provision of products or services outside our primary base of operations in the United States, all of the above factors apply, along with the difficulty of doing business in numerous sovereign jurisdictions due to differences in scale, competition, culture, laws and regulations.
