DynaVox Reports Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2012 Results

PITTSBURGH, PA – May 14, 2012 – DynaVox (NASDAQ: DVOX), the world’s leading provider of communication and education products for individuals with significant speech, language and learning disabilities, today announced results for the third quarter ended March 30, 2012.

For the third quarter ended March 30, 2012, net sales decreased 16% to $24.0 million, compared to net sales of $28.7 million for the third quarter ended April 1, 2011. Sales of the Company’s speech generating devices decreased 9% to $20.7 million, and sales of its special education software declined 44% to $3.3 million from the prior year.

Gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal year 2012 decreased 13% to $17.4 million, compared to $19.9 million in the third quarter of the prior year. The Company’s gross margin expanded 270 basis points to 72.3% in the third quarter, compared to 69.6% in the third quarter of the prior year. The gross margin expansion was primarily the result of lower device royalty costs related to the Company’s EyeMax product and an inventory obsolescence charge recorded in the prior period.

Operating loss was $58.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2012, compared to operating income of $3.8 million in the same period a year ago. The operating loss was mainly due to a $62.1 million impairment charge related to goodwill and other intangible assets the Company recorded during the third quarter of fiscal year 2012, compared to an impairment charge of $1.0 million recorded in the prior year. Excluding both of these impairment charges, the Company’s operating expenses declined 8% during the third quarter, compared to the prior year, and its operating income for the third quarter declined 28% to $3.5 million, compared to $4.8 million in the prior year.

Third quarter GAAP net loss was $14.1 million, or $1.33 per share, compared to GAAP net income of $0.7 million, or $0.07 per share, for the same quarter a year ago. Adjusted pro forma net income, as defined below in Explanatory Note and Non-GAAP Financial Measures, was $1.8 million for the third quarter, compared to $2.6 million in the prior year, and adjusted pro forma net income per share for the third quarter was $0.06 per share, compared to $0.09 per share in the prior year.

Adjusted EBITDA, as defined below in Explanatory Note and Non-GAAP Financial Measures, decreased 23% year over year in the third quarter of 2012 to $5.0 million from $6.5 million in the previous year.

“The end of government supported funding under ARRA, as well as the US state and EU government budget constraints, significantly impacted our performance during the third quarter, resulting in lower than expected sales,” said Ed Donnelly, DynaVox’s Chief Executive Officer. “In the meantime, we continued to implement our revised strategies and to reduce operating costs, which helped us minimize this negative impact on our bottom line performance.”

“While our operating environment remains very challenging and unpredictable, we still believe strongly in the large, significantly under penetrated markets in which we are the leader. We remain focused on serving our important customers and continue to invest in research and development to navigate these challenging times,” concluded Mr. Donnelly.

Results for the Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended March 30, 2012

For the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2012, net sales decreased 3% to $73.4 million from $75.8 million in the same period last year.

Gross profit for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2012 decreased 0.4% to $53.0 million. The Company’s gross margin expanded 200 basis points to 72.2% from 70.2% in the same period last year.

Operating loss for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal year 2012 was $53.4 million, compared to operating income of $4.7 million in the prior year. Excluding the impairment charges in both thirty-nine week periods, the Company’s operating income increased 52% to $8.7 million, compared to $5.8 million in the prior year.

GAAP net loss for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal year 2012 was $13.3 million, or $1.29 per share, compared to GAAP net income of $0.3 million, or $0.03 per share, a year ago. Adjusted pro forma net income was $4.4 million for the first thirty-nine weeks, compared to $2.1 million in the prior year, and adjusted pro forma net income per share for the first thirty-nine weeks was $0.15 per share, compared to $0.07 per share in the prior year.

For the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2012, Adjusted EBITDA was $13.7 million, an increase of 23%, from $11.2 million in the same period last year.

DynaVox Inc. completed an initial public offering (IPO) on April 27, 2010. As a result of the IPO and certain other recapitalization transactions, DynaVox Inc. became the sole managing member of and has a controlling interest in DynaVox Systems Holdings LLC and its subsidiaries (“DynaVox Holdings”).

This release presents adjusted pro forma net income (loss), which as defined by the Company represents net income (loss) before non-controlling interest and impairment loss and after pro forma corporate income tax expense applied at an assumed 38.0% rate, which includes a provision for U.S. federal income taxes, assumes the highest statutory rates apportioned to each state, local and/or foreign jurisdiction and assumes the full exchange of Holdings Units of DynaVox Holdings into Class A Common Stock. Adjusted pro forma net income (loss) per share consists of adjusted pro forma net income divided by the aggregate number of the Company’s Class A Common Stock outstanding, assuming full exchange of Holdings Units of DynaVox Holdings into Class A Common Stock of DynaVox Inc. and giving effect to the dilutive impact, if any, of stock options and restricted stock awards. The Company believes that Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income (Loss), when presented together with the comparable measure presented in accordance with GAAP, is useful to investors to assist in their understanding of the effect of the Company’s organizational structure on its reported results and also in comparing the Company’s results across different periods.

This release also presents Adjusted EBITDA, as defined by the Company as the income (loss) before income taxes, interest income, interest expense, impairment loss, depreciation, amortization and other adjustments noted in the table below.

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted pro forma net income (loss) and adjusted pro forma net income (loss) per share, however, do not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), net income (loss) per share or cash flow from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP, and our calculations thereof may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other companies.
