Total revenue for the first quarter of 2012 was $3.5 million, an increase of 151% over total revenue of $1.4 million for the first quarter of 2011.

Total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2012 were $3.5 million compared to $1.8 million for the first quarter of 2011.

GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2012 was $26,000 compared to a net loss of $801,000, or $0.04 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2011. The net loss in the first quarter of 2011 included $438,000 of non-cash interest and amortization expense related to convertible debt which was converted into common stock and $234,000 of stock-based compensation expense.

Non-GAAP net income, which excludes charges related to convertible debt and stock-based compensation, was $453,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2012 compared to a net loss of $129,000, or $0.01 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2011.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This news release contains non-GAAP financial measures for non-GAAP net income and earnings per share. In evaluating the Company’s performance, management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to supplement financial statements prepared under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures help indicate the Company’s baseline performance before gains, losses or charges that are considered by management to be outside ongoing operating results. Accordingly, management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to gain a better understanding of the Company’s comparative operating performance

from period-to-period and as a basis for planning and forecasting future periods. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures, when read in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP financials, are useful to investors because they provide a basis for meaningful period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s ongoing operating results, including results of operations against investor and analyst financial models, identifying trends in the Company’s underlying business and perform related trend analysis, and a better understanding how management plans and measures the Company’s underlying business.

These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
