For the three-month period ended June 30, 2011 (the “2011 Quarter”), the Company reported revenues of approximately $16.5 million, which represented an increase of approximately $1.3 million, or approximately 8.0%, from the approximately $15.2 million in revenues reported for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010 (the “2010 Quarter”). For the 2011 Quarter, the Company reported net income of approximately $617,000, or an increase of approximately 109% from net income of approximately $295,000 reported for the 2010 Quarter.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2011 (the “2011 Period”), the Company reported revenues of approximately $33.6 million, which represented an increase of approximately $3.3 million, or approximately 11%, from the approximately $30.3 million in revenues reported for the six months ended June 30, 2010 (the “2010 Period”). For the 2011 Period, the Company reported net income of approximately $954,000, compared with approximately $159,000 reported for the 2010 Period.

“Although the financial markets have fluctuated greatly,” stated Marshall Leeds, the Company’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, “we have continued to enjoy growth in revenue in 2011 when compared with 2010 due primarily to our success in recruiting the finest advisors in the industry. Further, we are pleased to report both higher net income and EBITDA for each of the three- and six-month periods. For the three-month period, the Company generated EBITDA of approximately $1.13 million, as adjusted, and approximately $2.15 million, as adjusted, for the six-month period.” Mr. Leeds continued: “We know that without the hard work and dedication of our financial advisors, their staffs and our home office associates, these accomplishments would not be possible.”

The Company is a Florida-based financial services holding company that provides, through its operating subsidiary, Summit Brokerage Services, Inc. (“Summit Brokerage”), a broad range of securities brokerage and investment services to primarily individual investors. Summit Brokerage also sells insurance products, predominantly fixed and variable annuities and life insurance through its subsidiary, SBS Insurance Agency of Florida. Summit Brokerage also provides asset management services through its investment advisor, Summit Financial Group, Inc.

Summit Brokerage is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and is a member of FINRA (f/k/a NASD), the Municipal Securities Rule Making Board, and the National Futures Association.

The following table presents a reconciliation of EBITDA, as adjusted, to net income as reported:

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, adjusted for non-cash compensation expense is a key metric the Company uses in evaluating its financial performance. EBITDA is considered a non-GAAP financial measure as defined by Regulation G, promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company considers EBITDA, as adjusted, important in monitoring and evaluating its financial performance on a consistent basis across various periods, as well as for purposes of, analyzing and evaluating financial and strategic planning decisions regarding future operating investments and potential acquisitions. The Company believes that EBITDA, as adjusted, eliminates items that are not part of its core operations, or do not involve a cash outlay, such as stock-related compensation. EBITDA, as adjusted, should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, pre-tax income, net income and cash flows from operating activities.
