NORCROSS, GA, December 6, 2011- (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - EasyLink Services International Corporation ("EasyLink" or "Company") (NasdaqCM: ESIC) (www.easylink.com), a global provider of on-demand cloud based comprehensive messaging and e-commerce applications, reported fiscal first quarter 2012 results setting record levels for fiscal first quarter results.
“These results demonstrate that enterprises across a broad range of industries continue to migrate their global communications requirements to the cloud and are increasingly choosing us for our innovative value-added solutions and services.” said Tom Stallings, CEO of EasyLink. “Delivering these solid results speaks to EasyLink's exceptional value proposition of cloud delivered mission-critical messaging and communications services and our recurring revenue model which continues to produce consistent levels of predictive revenue and significant cash generation.”
Financial Review
Revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was a first quarter record at $47.0 million, up 107%, compared to $22.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was $31.3 million, up 94%, compared to $16.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011.
On Demand Messaging revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2012, which includes fax, production messaging, document capture and management, e-mail services, and notifications services, was approximately $37.7 million compared to approximately $13.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011.
Supply Chain Messaging revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2012, which includes electronic data interchange (“EDI”) products and services and other legacy applications, was approximately $9.3 million compared to approximately $9.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011.
Net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was approximately $3.3 million, or $0.10 per basic and diluted share compared to approximately $1.0 million or $0.03 per basic and diluted share in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Non-GAAP net income ex-items was $5.4 million, or $0.17 per adjusted basic share and $0.16 per adjusted diluted share compared to approximately $3.2 million, or $0.11 per adjusted basic and diluted share in the first quarter of fiscal 2011.
Adjusted EBITDA, which includes non-cash compensation expense and acquisition and integration related charges, was approximately $11.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2012, up 79%, compared to approximately $6.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011.
In fiscal 2011 for purposes of strengthening and broadening our product offerings and capturing market share, we acquired the Send and Notify advanced messaging businesses, known as the Xpedite business, from Premiere Global Services, Inc. It should be noted that the comparisons to first quarter of fiscal 2011 only include the results of the Xpedite business from the date of the acquisition, October 21, 2010, through the end of the Company's fiscal 2011 first quarter on October 31, 2010.
Cash Flow Statement and Balance Sheet
Cash generated from operations for the three months ending October 31, 2011 was $7.5 million, up 52.6% from the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Our cash and cash equivalents at October 31, 2011 totaled $23.0 million.
Non-GAAP Presentation
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures that are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. This press release should be read in conjunction with the Company's Form 8-K earnings release filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the first fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2011.
In addition, these non-GAAP measures: (i) are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles; and (ii) have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with EasyLink's results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. As such, these measures should only be used to evaluate EasyLink's results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.
EasyLink believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures, when shown in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures, provides useful supplemental information to investors and management regarding financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations because they exclude certain non-cash charges or items that we do not believe are reflective of our ongoing operating results when assessing the performance of our business.
EasyLink believes that these non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate the comparison by management and investors of results between periods and among our peer companies. However, our peer companies may calculate similar non-GAAP financial measures differently than EasyLink, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
See reconciliation of GAAP to non- GAAP numbers including GAAP net income to Adjusted EBITDA at the end of this release for details.
