Note on Forward-Looking Statements
Statements made in this document that are not historical facts are "forward-looking statements" and accordingly involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described herein. Forward-looking statements include, for example, all statements relating to projected financial performance (including without limitation statements involving projections of revenue, margin, income (loss), earnings (loss) per share, cash usage, capital structure, and other financial items); the plans and objectives of management for future operations, partnerships, products, services or investments; and future performance in economic and other terms. The potential risks and uncertainties that could cause results to differ materially include, among others, our ability to retain and grow major partnerships, our ability to market and sell software and services to consumers and small businesses, our ability to maintain and grow revenue, our ability to scale and manage our workforce and our ability to control expenses and achieve desired margins. These and other risks are detailed in Support.com's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including without limitation its latest Annual Report on Form 10-K and its latest quarterly report on Form 10-Q, copies of which may be obtained from www.sec.gov. Support.com does not intend to update this information to reflect future events or circumstances, and disclaims any obligation to do so except as may be required by law.
Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Support.com has excluded stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and impairment charges, income tax impact of the disposition of business units on continuing operations, acquisition expense and tax expense associated with acquired goodwill from its GAAP results in order to determine the non-GAAP financial measure of net loss per share referenced in this document. We believe that the non-GAAP measures, when viewed in addition to and not in lieu of our reported GAAP results, assist investors in understanding our results of operations.
A. Stock-based compensation. Management excludes stock-based compensation expense when evaluating its operating performance because such expense does not require cash settlement and because such expense is not used by management to assess the performance of the Company's business. Stock-based compensation expense was $937,000 in the third quarter of 2011, compared to $727,000 in the third quarter of 2010 and $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2011.
B. Amortization of intangible assets. Management excludes acquisition-related intangible asset amortization and related charges when evaluating its operating performance because the Company does not acquire businesses on a predictable cycle and excluding such charges enables more consistent evaluation of the Company's operating performance. Management also excludes such charges because they represent non-cash expenses. Amortization expense was $330,000 in the third quarter of 2011, compared to $93,000 in the third quarter of 2010 and $122,000 in the second quarter of 2011.
C. Restructuring and impairment charges. Management excludes restructuring and impairment charges when evaluating its operating performance because the Company does not undertake restructurings on a predicable basis and excluding such charges enables more consistent evaluation of the Company's operating performance. Restructuring and impairment charges were $368,000 in the third quarter of 2011, compared to zero in the third quarter of 2010 and $65,000 in the second quarter of 2011.
D. Income tax impact of disposition of business units on continuing operations. Management excludes the income tax impact of the disposition of business units when evaluating the performance of its continuing operations because this tax impact is not a result of the Company's continuing operations. The income tax expense related to the disposal of business units was zero in the third quarter of 2011, compared to $58,000 in the third quarter of 2010 and zero in the second quarter of 2011.
E. Acquisition expense. Management excludes acquisition expense such as legal fees and advisor fees when evaluating its operating performance because the Company does not acquire businesses on a predictable cycle and excluding such expense enables more consistent evaluation of the Company's operating performance. Acquisition expense was $190,000 in the third quarter of 2011, compared to zero in the third quarter of 2010 and $348,000 in the second quarter of 2011.
F. Tax expense associated with acquired goodwill. The Company is required to record a deferred tax liability and the related tax expense that results from the amortization for income tax purposes of acquired goodwill. Management excludes tax expense associated with acquired goodwill when evaluating its operating performance because the Company does not acquire businesses on a predictable cycle and excluding such expense enables more consistent evaluation of the Company’s operating performance. Tax expense associated with acquired goodwill was $270,000 in the third quarter of 2011, compared to zero in the third quarter of 2010 and zero in the second quarter of 2011.
The Company believes that non-GAAP measures have significant limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company's financial results as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate the Company's financial results in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. In addition, the exclusion of the charges and expenses indicated above from the non-GAAP financial measures presented does not indicate an expectation by management that such charges and expenses will not be incurred in subsequent periods.

The adjustments above reconcile the Company's GAAP financial results to the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company. The Company's non-GAAP financial measures exclude stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and impairment charges, income tax impact of the disposition of business units on continuing operations, acquisition expense and tax expense associated with acquired goodwill. The Company believes that presentation of these non-GAAP items provides meaningful supplemental information to investors, when viewed in conjunction with, and not in lieu of, the Company's GAAP results. However, the non-GAAP financial measures have not been prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP information should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures. See the text of this press release for more information on non-GAAP financial measures.
2011 amounts are subject to completion of management's and its independent registered public accounting firm's customary closing and review procedures.
