Rimage Updates Guidance for Fourth Quarter 2011

Minneapolis, MN – January 23, 2012 – Rimage Corporation (Nasdaq: RIMG) today announced revised guidance for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2011. Based upon preliminary unaudited results, the Company currently anticipates that revenue in the fourth quarter of 2011 will be approximately $22 million. The Company expects to report a fourth quarter net loss on a GAAP basis, including the amortization of intangibles created by the purchase accounting adjustments related to its acquisition of Qumu on October 10, 2011 which were not part of previous earnings guidance, of between $(0.15) and $(0.17). It expects to report a non-GAAP net loss per share of between $(0.12) and $(0.14), including Qumu transaction costs but excluding the amortization of intangibles. The Company had previously provided guidance for fourth quarter 2011 revenue of between $24 and $26 million, which included a $4 to $5 million contribution from Qumu. It had estimated fourth quarter non-GAAP 2011 earnings per share, including $1.3 million of Qumu transaction costs but excluding the impact of amortization of intangibles, of between $(0.02) and $0.01.

The Company also announced that it expects to generate cash from operations in the fourth quarter. In addition, through its quarterly dividend and stock repurchase activities, it returned almost $4 million back to shareholders during the fourth quarter.

For the full year, the Company expects revenue of approximately $84 million. GAAP earnings per share are estimated to be between $0.28 and $0.30. These earnings include the amortization of Qumu intangibles and one time Qumu transaction costs of $1.7 million. After the impact of the Qumu acquisition, quarterly dividend and stock repurchase activity, the Company expects to end fiscal 2011 with approximately $70 million in cash on the balance sheet.

“While our fourth quarter disc publishing revenue came in at approximately $20 million, as expected, Qumu’s revenue was negatively affected by the slippage of several transactions. The result was that Qumu revenue for the quarter totaled approximately $2 million,” said Sherman Black, president and CEO of Rimage. “In addition, while the total year transaction costs related to the Qumu acquisition came in as expected at $1.7 million, the majority were not tax deductible, creating a greater loss per share than we anticipated.”

“We are optimistic that we will close on most of the outstanding transactions in the first half of 2012 and Qumu will be back on track to meet our growth expectations,” continued Mr. Black. “We remain confident about Qumu and its potential. We are positioning ourselves as a leader in the growing market for collaborative, multimedia content management and secure delivery, and we are focused on completing the integration of our two companies to realize the customer and technology synergies we anticipate. For 2012, we continue to believe that our momentum in the marketplace will lead to strong annual revenue growth. If we successfully execute to our plan, this would result in overall double digit revenue growth this year.”

The preliminary results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2011 are subject to the Company’s management and independent auditors’ customary accounting and audit procedures. The Company expects to report its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2011 on Thursday, February 23, 2012.

Note to reconcile non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP
