  Grow revenue with fiscal discipline
  Achieve double digit organic sales growth by
  Reducing churn
  Achieving new sales goals
  Increasing average revenue per dealer (ARPD)
  Increasing recurring revenue as a percentage of total revenue
  Launching new products
  Increase ARI visibility
 …but the market sets the price
  Our perspective
  We are undervalued (using industry valuation norms)
  Continued strategic focus and business execution can drive a return to fair value
  We believe that we are doing the right strategic and operational things to
 increase shareholder value
 
 

 
Outlook
 Expect a slow recovery in several ARI verticals
 Expect revenue growth in FY12
 Expect continued improvement in operating income
 & EBITDA
 Continue to improve cash flow from operations
 Expect to launch a new product to increase ARPD
 and drive international growth (BRIC)
 Expect to reduce churn through increased focus and
 product enhancements
