Campbell, Calif., November 14, 2011 – Rainmaker Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: RMKR), a leading global provider of B2B e-commerce solutions that drive online sales and renewal for products, subscriptions and training for clients and their channel partners, today reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2011.
Net revenue in the third quarter of 2011 was $9.6 million, a 6% sequential increase from net revenue in the preceding quarter of $9.1 million.
Recent Business Highlights
• | Second consecutive quarter of sequential revenue growth |
• | Announcing two new e-commerce storefront clients |
• | Renewed multiple existing agreements with key Fortune 50 hardware client |
• | Appointed Gary Briggs, a current Board member and VP of Marketing at Google, as lead independent director |
• | Sequentially decreased quarterly net loss by over $600 thousand |
• | Significantly lowered break-even point through cost reductions of over $3 million annually |
Rainmaker CEO and Chairman Michael Silton commented, “We continue to make traction in our e-commerce transformation strategy focused on online sales and renewals and have brought our operating cash flow breakeven down significantly. We are launching storefronts for two new e-commerce clients and we were recently awarded extensions of multiple existing contracts by our key Fortune 50 Hardware client. For the third quarter, we generated continued sequential growth in revenue, improved margins, and reduced operating expenses. We continue to streamline the organization, have taken significant actions to reduce costs and we remain on track to achieve a return to positive cash flow within our current resources. Our sales pipeline continues to grow and we remain focused on taking advantage of the significant market opportunity in B2B e-commerce by signing additional e-commerce clients that will contribute to continued revenue growth and margin improvement in 2012.”
Third quarter 2011 adjusted EBITDA, which excludes non-cash stock compensation expense, was negative $1.3 million, compared to negative $1.8 million in the preceding quarter. See Exhibit A for a reconciliation of GAAP net loss to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Rainmaker Systems' management evaluates and makes operating decisions using various performance measures. In addition to GAAP results, Rainmaker also considers adjusted net revenue, non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss per share, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, which excludes non-cash stock compensation expense from EBITDA. These non-GAAP measures are derived from the revenue generated by Rainmaker's business and the costs directly related to the generation of that revenue, such as costs of services, sales and marketing expenses, technology expenses and general and administrative expenses, that management considers in evaluating the Company's operating performance. These non-GAAP measures exclude certain revenues and expenses that management does not consider to be related to the Company's core operating performance.
EBITDA was negative $1.8 million for the third quarter of 2011. EBITDA consists of net loss excluding interest and other expense, income taxes, depreciation & amortization and certain other non-cash items. Provision for income taxes was $9,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Non-cash charges for depreciation of property and equipment were $705,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Non-cash charges for amortization of acquisition related intangibles were $70,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Interest and other expense was $73,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The loss on fair value re-measurement was $114,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and related to an increase in the accrued liability for the potential earnout from the acquisition of Optima. The change in fair value of warrant liability was $70,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and related to a reduction in the fair value of the common stock warrant liability from the June 2011 equity financing. Adjusted EBITDA was negative $1.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and adds back to EBITDA non-cash stock based compensation expense of $534,000 incurred in the third quarter of 2011. See Exhibit A for a reconciliation of GAAP net loss to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA.
Non-GAAP net loss was $2.0 million for the third quarter of 2011 and consists of net loss excluding stock based compensation expense, amortization of purchased intangible assets, loss on fair value re-measurement and change in fair value of warrant liability. Stock based compensation expense was $534,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and represents the current quarter recognition of compensation expense related to stock options and restricted stock awards granted prior to and during the quarter. The loss on fair value re-measurement was $114,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and related to an increase in the accrued liability for the potential earnout from the acquisition of Optima. Amortization of intangible assets was $70,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The change in fair value of warrant liability was $70,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and related to a reduction in the fair value of the common stock warrant liability from the June 2011 equity financing. See Exhibit B for a reconciliation of GAAP net loss to non-GAAP net loss.
Non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss per share, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are supplemental measures of Rainmaker's performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, they should not be considered as an alternative to any performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity. Rainmaker presents these non-GAAP measures because management considers them to be important supplemental measures of Rainmaker's operating performance and profitability trends, and because management believes they give investors useful information on period-to-period performance as evaluated by management. Rainmaker believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures provides consistency and comparability with Rainmaker's past financial reports and also facilitates comparisons with other companies in Rainmaker's industry, a number of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results. Management has used these non-GAAP measures when evaluating operating performance because management believes that the inclusion or exclusion of the items described above provides an additional measure of the Company's core operating results and facilitates comparisons of the Company's core operating performance against prior periods and the Company's business model objectives. Rainmaker has chosen to provide this information to investors to enable them to perform additional analysis of past, present and future operating performance and as a supplemental means to evaluation of the Company's ongoing core operations.

We regularly use EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA internally to manage our business and make operating decisions. |

____________________________________
(1) To supplement our financial results presented on a GAAP basis, we use non-GAAP net loss, which excludes certain business combination accounting entries and expenses related to acquisitions as well as other expenses including stock-based compensation and non-recurring items. As we have completed several acquisitions since 2005, we believe non-GAAP net loss provides useful information to investors regarding the underlying business trends and performance of the Company's ongoing operations and is useful for period over period comparisons of such operations. Non-GAAP net loss is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP net loss, and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
(2) We estimate the fair value of share based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model for option grants and our closing share price as reported on NASDAQ for restricted share grants. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods. Stock-based compensation expenses will recur in future periods.
(3) We have excluded the effect of amortization of intangibles from our non-GAAP net loss. We believe this helps investors understand a significant reason why our GAAP operating expenses increase following acquisitions. Investors should note that the use of intangible assets contributed to revenue earned during the period and will contribute to future revenue generation and should also note that these amortization expenses are recurring.
(4) In the quarter ended September 30, 2011, we recorded a loss on fair value re-measurement of $114,000 related to the change in the accrued estimated liability for the potential earnout from the acquisition of Optima. In the quarter ended September 30, 2011, we recorded a gain in fair value of the warrant liability of $70,000 related to a reduction in the common stock warrant liability from the June 2011 equity financing.
