Pending Merger Transaction
On April 27, 2011, LoopNet and the CoStar Group, Inc. (CoStar) announced the signing of a merger
agreement for the acquisition of LoopNet by CoStar (the Merger), which was approved by LoopNets
stockholders at a special meeting on July 11, 2011. Completion of the Merger is subject to the
expiration or termination of the waiting period imposed by the Hart-Scott Rodino Antitrust
Improvement Act of 1976 as amended, and satisfaction or waiver of the other closing conditions
specified in the merger agreement. The Merger is expected to close by the end of 2011.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes discussions of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net
income per share, which are non-GAAP financial measures provided as a complement to results
provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America (GAAP). The term Adjusted EBITDA refers to a financial measure that we define as
earnings before net interest and other income (expense), income taxes, depreciation, amortization,
stock-based compensation, litigation related recoveries and acquisition related costs. The term
non-GAAP net income refers to a financial measure that we define as net income before stock-based
compensation, litigation related recoveries, acquisition related costs and amortization of acquired
intangible assets. Non-GAAP net income is also provided on a per share basis, using shares
outstanding at the relevant period of measurement. Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and
non-GAAP net income per share are not substitutes for measures determined in accordance with GAAP,
and may not be comparable to Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share
as reported by other companies. We believe Adjusted EBITDA to be relevant and useful information to
our investors as this measure is an integral part of our internal management reporting and planning
process and is the primary measure used by our management to evaluate the operating performance of
our business. The components of Adjusted EBITDA include the key revenue and expense items for
which our operating managers are responsible and upon which we evaluate their performance, and we
also use Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes and in presentations to our board of directors. We
believe non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share to be relevant and useful
information to our investors as they provide meaningful insight into the Companys performance
while excluding infrequent and non-recurring items that may not be considered directly related to
our on-going business operations. We believe that non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per
share are also used by companies and investors to evaluate comparable performance in the online
marketplace and platform industry. We also believe that Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and
non-GAAP net income per share allow for a more accurate comparison of our operating results over
historical periods. A limitation of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income
per share is that they do not include all items that impact our net income for the period.
Management compensates for this limitation by also relying on the comparable GAAP financial measure
of net income, which includes the items that are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income
and non-GAAP net income per share. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures should be
considered as a complement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding
measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to GAAP is
provided in the attached tables.
