Total revenue for 4Q11 was $124.2 million, up 2% as compared to $121.5 million in 4Q10. Managed Services revenue was $42.8 million in 4Q11, up 26% as compared to $34.0 million in 4Q10.

These amounts totaled $0.1 million (solely related to RollStream) and $2.4 million (solely related to “Inovis”) in 4Q11 and 4Q10, respectively. Adjusting for such write-downs, pro forma total revenue for 4Q11 was $124.3 million, up slightly as compared to $123.9 million in 4Q10.

Adjusted EBITDA
 
Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and certain other charges (“Adjusted EBITDA”, a non-GAAP measure) for 4Q11 was $43.2 million, the same as in 4Q10. Adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2011 was $155.2 million, 11.2% higher than the full year 2010, and 1.1% lower than pro forma Adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2010.
 
Management relies upon Adjusted EBITDA as a primary measure to review and assess operating performance of its business and management team. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as (i) an alternative to net income, (ii) as a measure of operating income, or cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, or (iii) as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies. The table below reconciles net income to Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL EXPENDITURES
 
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $13.0 million at the end of 4Q11, as compared to $25.2 million at the end of 3Q11. There was $3.0 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility at the end of 4Q11 while no amounts were outstanding at the end of 3Q11. At the end of both 4Q11 and 3Q11, $11.7 million of the $50 million of revolving credit facility capacity was pledged as security for certain letters of credit. Therefore, total available cash liquidity, including cash and cash equivalents and total revolving credit facility capacity less outstanding borrowings and letters of credit secured by the revolving credit facility, was $48.3 million and $63.5 million at the end 4Q11 and 3Q11, respectively.
 
On February 29, 2012, GXS amended its revolving credit facility to achieve more favorable terms, including (i) extended the expiration date to March 15, 2015 (from December 23, 2012), (ii) eliminated the minimum interest rate associated with the Base Rate and LIBOR (which were previously 3.0% and 2.0%, respectively), (iii) reduced the spread applicable to Eurodollar rate loans to 4.50% per annum and the spread applicable to Base rate loans to 3.50% per annum (which were 5.5% and 4.5%, respectively), (iv) lowered the annual commitment fee to 0.50% per annum (from 0.75% per annum), and (v) amended the net leverage ratio to permit such ratio as of the last day of any fiscal quarter to be as high as 5.75:1 (from 5.25:1). All other material terms and conditions remained unchanged.

Capital expenditures (“CAPEX”) were $8.5 million in 4Q11, as compared to $8.4 million in 4Q10. For the full year 2011, CAPEX totaled $42.8 million as compared to $35.3 million in 2010.
 
CUSTOMER ACQUISITION ACTIVITY
 
Total MCV for 4Q11 was $55.3 million, as compared to $44.1 million in 4Q10. Sales activity in 4Q11 continued to be focused predominantly on new Managed Services deals which comprised 77% of total MCV in the quarter as compared to 66% in 4Q10. For the full year 2011, MCV was $175.0 million, as compared to $142.9 million in 2010, a 22% increase, which also represents a record year in MCV for GXS.

MCV is the incremental future minimum committed revenue of new sales agreements signed in the current period by customers. If the new contract signed is to replace an existing revenue stream, the MCV is adjusted to reflect only the incremental value from the sale. The MCV calculations are not reflected or recorded within the condensed consolidated financial statements. MCV is not a measure of financial condition or financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to deferred income or revenues, as a measure of financial condition or operating performance.
 
FINANCIAL GUIDANCE
 
As GXS moves into 2012, the company continues to experience strong demand for its B2B integration solutions and increasing customer expectations for service excellence. “To support our growth aspirations, we plan to continue to increase investments in sales and marketing to continue to drive growth in Managed Services MCV,” commented Gregg Clevenger, GXS Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, “while simultaneously investing operating expense and CAPEX in programs designed to: (i) improve the overall customer experience, (ii) improve network stability, flexibility and redundancy, (iii) enhance our ability to quickly and efficiently launch new products, and (iv) reduce the cost and enhance the speed of new customer implementations – all while continuing to drive efficiencies in G&A expense where possible.” These investments are expected to put pressure on annual Adjusted EBITDA margins over the next two years while providing a foundation for margin expansion thereafter.
 
For 2012, revenue is expected to be in the range of $480 to $490 million, representing annual growth of up to 2.1%. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $145 to $150 million, representing a decrease of between 6.6% and 3.4% versus the full year 2011. CAPEX is expected to be in the range of $45 to $50 million, representing an increase of between 5.2% and 16.9% versus 2011. MCV is expected to be in the range of $190 to $200 million, representing an increase of between 8.6% and 14.3% versus the full year 2011.
 
For 1Q12, revenue is expected to be in the range of $116 to $117 million and Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $32 to $33 million, representing a 1.6% to 2.5% increase over 1Q11 revenue and between a 2.7% decline and 0.3% increase in Adjusted EBITDA versus 1Q11.
 
 
9

 
 
For 2Q12, revenue is expected to be in the range of $118 to $119 million and Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $34 to $35 million, representing between a 0.7% decline and a 0.2% increase versus 2Q11 revenue and between a 10.1% decrease and 7.5% decrease in Adjusted EBITDA versus 2Q11.
 
Achieving this guidance is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties as described in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As a result, there can be no assurance that such guidance can be achieved.
