Digital River, Inc. (NASDAQ: DRIV),
the revenue growth experts in global cloud commerce, today reported
financial results for its fourth quarter and full year 2012.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year Ended Dec. 31,
2012, Financial Results GAAP Results In
2012 fourth quarter revenue was $101.3 million, exceeding management’s
fourth quarter revenue guidance of $96 to $100 million. For the full
year 2012, revenue was $386.2 million, also exceeding full year revenue
guidance of $381 to $385 million. In 2011, the company reported fourth
quarter revenue of $112 million and full year revenue of $398.1 million.
In 2012, the company reported a GAAP net loss of $200.1 million, or
$6.11 per share, for the fourth quarter, and a GAAP net loss of $195.9
million, or $5.90 per share, for the full year. The net loss includes a
non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $161.1 million net of tax and a
non-cash valuation allowance against deferred tax assets of $43.5
million. The goodwill impairment and tax valuation allowance were both
non-cash charges and are not expected to impact future company
performance. In 2011, the company reported GAAP net income of $4.3
million, or $0.12 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter, and GAAP net
income of $17.2 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, for the full year.
Non-GAAP Results In 2012 on a non-GAAP basis, which
excludes the non-cash goodwill impairment and tax valuation allowance,
the company reported net income of $11.2 million, or $0.31 per diluted
share, in the fourth quarter, and $35.9 million, or $1.02 per diluted
share, for the full year. In 2011, the company reported non-GAAP net
income of $17.7 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, in the fourth
quarter, and non-GAAP net income of $45.6 million, or $1.15 per diluted
share, for the full year.
“Our fourth quarter revenue and non-GAAP earnings performance was in
line with our expectations,” said Tom Madison, Digital River’s chairman
and interim CEO. “We continue to focus the organization on initiatives
that drive revenue for clients. In addition during the quarter, we
divested some non-core assets, reduced expenses in certain areas, as
well as repurchased some of our outstanding convertible debt and common
stock. In early January, we also completed our acquisition of LML
Payment Systems. We plan to accelerate growth across our payments
solution this year as we extend LML’s services to Europe and other
geographies.”
Madison continued, “During 2013, we’ll be making some important
investments to advance our technology toward an even more modular,
cloud-based service, which is where we see the market moving. We believe
these investments will solidify the foundation we need to return to
increasing top-line growth in the future.”
During the quarter, the company repurchased approximately $44 million of
its two percent, 2010 convertible notes in open market transactions.
Additionally, the company repurchased approximately $2.4 million of
common stock.
First Quarter 2013 Guidance Management’s
forward-looking financial expectations for the first quarter of 2013 are
as follows:
Revenue, ranging from $101 to $104 million;
GAAP EPS, ranging from a loss of $0.14 to a loss of $0.09 per share,
using a 17 percent tax rate; and
Non-GAAP EPS, ranging from $0.18 to $0.22 per diluted share, using a
21 percent tax rate.
A detailed table providing a reconciliation of the company’s GAAP and
non-GAAP earnings guidance estimates can be found accompanying this
press release.

Non-GAAP Net Income Calculation Digital River’s non-GAAP
net income (loss) is computed by adjusting GAAP pre-tax income as
reported on the company’s statement of operations by adding back
amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, stock-based
compensation expense, intangible impairments, restructuring costs,
litigation settlements, acquisition and integration costs, unrealized
investment gain or loss, and goodwill impairments, net of a 21 percent
tax rate. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is calculated using the
“if-converted” method with respect to the issuance of the company’s 2004
and 2010 convertible notes, which includes shares reserved upon
conversion of 199,828 and 6,128,581, respectively. In computing non-GAAP
diluted earnings per share, adjust non-GAAP net income to add back debt
interest and issuance cost amortization expenses, net of the tax
benefit, and then divide this amount by fully diluted shares
outstanding. This amount, representing the fully diluted earnings
computation, is selected to represent non-GAAP diluted earnings per
share for each period presented. To provide further clarity, a detailed
reconciliation on the comparability of the GAAP and non-GAAP data has
been provided in table form following the financial statements
accompanying this release.
