GTT Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2015 Financial Results
Q4 Revenue Grew 83% YoY to $114.8 Million; Adjusted EBITDA Grew 152% YoY to $25.5 Million
2015 Revenue Grew 78% to $369 Million; Adjusted EBITDA Grew 114% to $77 Million
McLean, VA, March 3, 2016 - GTT Communications, Inc. (NYSE: GTT), the leading global cloud networking provider to multinational clients, announced today its financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2015.

Fourth quarter highlights:
Revenue increased by 83.3% to $114.8 million compared to $62.7 million in fourth quarter 2014, and by 18.4% compared to $97.0 million in third quarter 2015.
Gross profit margin expanded by approximately 810 basis points to 46.1% compared to 38.0% in fourth quarter 2014, and expanded approximately 110 basis points compared to 45.0% in third quarter 2015.
Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) increased by 151.7% to $25.5 million compared to $10.1 million in fourth quarter 2014, and by 22.5% compared to $20.8 million in third quarter 2015. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded by approximately 610 basis points to 22.2% compared to 16.2% in fourth quarter 2014, and by approximately 70 basis points compared to 21.5% in third quarter 2015.
Capital expenditures were $4.2 million in fourth quarter 2015 compared to $2.8 million in fourth quarter 2014, and $3.5 million in third quarter 2015. Capital expenditures were approximately 3.7% of revenue during the fourth quarter. Unlevered free cash flow, defined as Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures, was $21.3 million compared to $7.4 million in fourth quarter 2014, and $17.3 million in third quarter 2015.
Using constant currency (i) when compared to fourth quarter 2014, fourth quarter 2015 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA would have been higher than reported by $1.9 million and $1.0 million, respectively, and (ii) when compared to third quarter 2015, fourth quarter 2015 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA would have been higher than reported by $0.3 million and $0.1 million, respectively.
The increases in revenue, gross profit, Adjusted EBITDA and unlevered free cash flow are due primarily to the acquisitions of MegaPath’s managed services business on April 1, 2015, and One Source Networks (“OSN”) on October 22, 2015, as well as organic growth.

Full year highlights:
Revenue increased by 78.1% to $369.3 million compared to $207.3 million in 2014.
Gross profit margin expanded by approximately 640 basis points to 44.6% compared to 38.2% in 2014.
Adjusted EBITDA increased by 113.6% to $77.0 million compared to $36.1 million in 2014, and Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded by approximately 350 basis points to 20.9% compared to 17.4% in 2014.
Capital expenditures were $14.1 million in 2015 compared to $5.8 million in 2014. Capital expenditures were approximately 3.8% of revenue during 2015. Unlevered free cash flow, defined as Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures, was $63.0 million compared to $30.2 million in 2014.
Using constant currency, when compared to 2014, 2015 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA would have been higher than reported by $11.8 million and $5.9 million, respectively.
The increases in revenue, gross profit, Adjusted EBITDA and unlevered free cash flow are due primarily to the acquisitions of MegaPath’s managed services business on April 1, 2015, and One Source Networks on October 22, 2015, as well as organic growth.

Pro forma highlights, assuming (i) One Source Networks and MegaPath’s managed services business historical results had been included for all periods presented, and (ii) constant currency:
Fourth quarter 2015 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA grew by 8.8% and 53.7%, respectively, compared to fourth quarter 2014.



Fourth quarter 2015 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA and grew by 2.2% and 5.8%, respectively, compared to third quarter 2015.
Full year 2015 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA grew by 8.0% and 49.1%, respectively, compared to full year 2014.

*Note: See “Annex A: Non-GAAP Financial Information” for more information regarding the computation of Adjusted EBITDA, Gross Profit, Unlevered Free Cash Flow, Constant Currency and Pro Forma calculations.

The company reported net income of $27.6 million in fourth quarter 2015 and $19.3 million for the full year 2015.  Net income was driven by an income tax benefit of approximately $34 million recorded in the fourth quarter, which was primarily related to the release of the company’s valuation allowance against U.S. deferred tax assets, based on management’s conclusion that it was more likely that not that the company would be able to utilize its U.S. net operating loss carryforwards in the future.  There was no cash impact from the release of valuation allowance.  The company’s estimated U.S. federal net operating loss carryforward position was $83.6 million as of December 31, 2015.

“2015 was a terrific year for GTT,” stated Rick Calder, GTT president and CEO. “We delivered a strong fourth quarter, with over 2% sequential revenue growth and approximately 6% sequential Adjusted EBITDA growth, reflecting the scale and momentum we gained through our strategic acquisitions and our organic growth initiatives. We ended the year with a very strong foundation for continued growth in 2016, having expanded our geographic reach, our portfolio of cloud networking services, our roster of blue-chip clients and our leadership team.”

“GTT’s fourth quarter performance demonstrates our ability to successfully manage rapid growth, both organically and via acquisitions, and to drive significant margin expansion, while maintaining our commitment to the capex-light model,” stated Mike Sicoli, chief financial officer. “We expect to complete our integration of OSN by the end of first quarter 2016, and to complete our integration of Telnes Broadband, which we acquired in February, by the end of second quarter 2016. With our enhanced global platform, we are well positioned for another year of growth and margin expansion in 2016.”

ANNEX A: Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), from time to time we may use or publicly disclose certain “non-GAAP financial measures” in the course of our financial presentations, earnings releases, earnings conference calls, and otherwise. For these purposes, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) defines a “non-GAAP financial measure” as a numerical measure of historical or future financial performance, financial positions or cash flows that (i) excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that effectively exclude amounts, included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in financial statements, and (ii) includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that effectively include amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented.

Non-GAAP financial measures are provided as additional information to investors to provide an alternative method for assessing our financial condition and operating results. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when taken together with our GAAP financial measures, allow us and our investors to better evaluate our performance and profitability. These measures are not in accordance with, or a substitute for, GAAP, and may be different from or inconsistent with non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. These measures should be used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP, and should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures.

Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, whenever we refer to a non-GAAP financial measure, we will also generally present the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, along with a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measure we reference with such comparable GAAP financial measure.

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”)
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income/(loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) adjusted to exclude severance, restructuring and other exit costs, acquisition-related transaction and integration costs, losses on extinguishment of debt, stock-based compensation and from time to time, other non-cash or non-recurring items.

We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate operating performance, and this financial measure is among the primary measures we use for planning and forecasting future periods. We further believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is relevant and useful for investors because it allows investors to view results in a manner similar to the method used by management, and makes it easier to compare our results with the results of other companies that have different financing and capital structures. In addition, we have debt covenants that are based on a leverage ratio which utilizes a modified EBITDA calculation, as defined in our Credit Agreement. The modified EBITDA calculation is similar to our definition of Adjusted EBITDA; however, it includes the pro forma Adjusted EBITDA of and expected

8



cost synergies from the companies acquired by us during the applicable reporting period. Finally, Adjusted EBITDA results, along with other quantitative and qualitative information, are utilized by management and our compensation committee for purposes of determining bonus payouts to our employees.

Unlevered Free Cash Flow
Unlevered Free Cash Flow is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less purchases of property and equipment, which we also refer to as capital expenditures. We use this measure to evaluate the level of capital expenditures needed to support our revenue and Adjusted EBITDA, and we believe this measure is also used by investors to evaluate us relative to peer companies in the telecommunications industry.

The following is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Unlevered Free Cash Flow from Net Income (Loss) (amounts in thousands):

Constant Currency
We evaluate our results of operations both as reported and on a constant currency basis. The constant currency presentation, which is a non-GAAP measure, excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We believe providing constant currency information offers valuable supplemental information regarding our results of operations, consistent with how we evaluate our performance. We calculate constant currency results by converting our current period local currency financial results using prior period exchange rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our prior period reported results.

Pro Forma Financial Information
In addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, from time to time we may use or publicly disclose certain “pro forma” financial measures in the course of our financial presentations, earnings releases, earnings conference calls and otherwise. We believe certain pro forma financial measures provide a more comparable view of our results relative to prior periods, particularly given the number of acquisitions we have completed in the past. The following unaudited pro forma financial information and related notes present the historical financial information of GTT as if the acquisitions of United Networks Service Inc. (“UNSi”), MegaPath Corporation (“MegaPath”) and One Source Networks, Inc. (“One Source”) had occurred on the first day of the applicable period presented.
