Sal Iannuzzi, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Monster Worldwide, said, “Our focus in 2010 was dedicated to building momentum across all geographies and within our major vertical markets.

As such, we are reiterating our outlook of 20-25% bookings and revenue growth for 2011, and underscoring our commitment to significantly improve the profitability profile of Monster.”
Fourth Quarter Results

On a year over year basis, currency translation had a $5 million negative impact on bookings in the fourth quarter.

GAAP revenue of $255 million includes a $3.3 million purchase accounting adjustment related to the HotJobs acquisition. Non-GAAP revenue of $258 million increased 21% from revenue of $213 million in the fourth quarter of 2009. On a year over year basis, currency translation had a $3 million negative impact on non-GAAP revenue in the fourth quarter.
Total Careers revenue on a non-GAAP basis was $226 million, an increase of 26%, compared to $179 million in the fourth quarter of 2009.
Non-GAAP Careers-North America revenue was $124 million, an increase of 37% compared to $91 million in the fourth quarter of 2009. Careers-International revenue increased 15% to $102 million compared with $88 million in the prior year period. Internet Advertising & Fees revenue of $32 million decreased 4% compared to $34 million in the fourth quarter of 2009.
Consolidated GAAP operating expenses were $253 million. Net income was $501 thousand, or break-even, on a per share basis. This compares to a net loss of $2 million, or $0.02 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2009.
Net income for the fourth quarter included a pre-tax adjustment of $9.8 million, or $0.05 per share net of tax. These items consisted of a $3.3 million reduction to revenue due to the purchase accounting adjustment related to the acquisition of HotJobs and $6.6 million primarily related to HotJobs transaction and integration costs. These pro forma items are fully described in the “Notes Regarding the Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and are reconciled to the GAAP measure in the accompanying tables.
Monster Worldwide non-GAAP income was $7.1 million, or $0.06 per share, which was negatively impacted by $1 million of currency translation on a year over year basis. This compares to a non-GAAP loss of $1.5 million, or $0.01 per share in the fourth quarter of 2009. On a non-GAAP basis, operating expenses were $246 million or a 16% year over year increase compared to $213 million in the fourth quarter of 2009. The majority of the increase in operating expenses was due to the acquisition of HotJobs.

Notes Regarding the Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company has provided certain non-GAAP financial information as additional information for its operating results. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and may be different from non-GAAP measures reported by other companies. The Company believes that its presentation of non-GAAP measures provides useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations.
Non-GAAP revenue, operating expenses, operating income, operating margin, net-income or loss and diluted earnings per share all exclude certain pro forma adjustments including: net costs associated with the Company’s historical stock option grant practices; the strategic restructuring actions initiated in the third quarter of 2007; severance charges related to the targeted global headcount reduction; facility charges primarily related to the product and technology global reorganization; the fair value adjustment to deferred revenue in connection with the acquisition of ChinaHR and HotJobs; realized and unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities; acquisition and integration-related costs associated with the acquisition of HotJobs; and a net non-cash benefit relating to the reversal of an income tax liability for uncertain tax positions. The Company uses these non-GAAP measures for reviewing the ongoing results of the Company’s core business operations and in certain instances, for measuring performance under certain of the Company’s incentive compensation plans. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) is defined as net income or loss before interest income or expense, income tax expense or benefit, net gain or loss in equity interests, depreciation and amortization and non-cash compensation expense. The Company considers EBITDA to be an important indicator of its operational strength which the Company believes is useful to management and investors in evaluating its operating performance. EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Operating income before depreciation and amortization (“OIBDA”) is defined as net income or loss from operations before depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, amortization of stock-based compensation and non-cash costs incurred in connection with the Company’s restructuring program. The Company considers OIBDA to be an important indicator of its operational strength. This measure eliminates the effects of depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, amortization of stock-based compensation and non-cash restructuring costs from period to period, which the Company believes is useful to management and investors in evaluating its operating performance. OIBDA is a non-GAAP measure and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Bookings represent the dollar value of contractual orders received in the relevant period.
Free cash flow is defined as cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures. Free cash flow is considered a liquidity measure and provides useful information about the Company’s ability to generate cash after investments in property and equipment. Free cash flow reflected herein is a non-GAAP measure and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Free cash flow does not reflect the total change in the Company’s cash position for the period and should not be considered a substitute for such a measure.
Net cash and securities is defined as cash and cash equivalents plus short-term and long-term marketable securities, less total debt. Total available liquidity is defined as cash and cash equivalents, plus short-term and long-term marketable securities plus unused borrowings under our credit facility. The Company considers net cash and securities and total available liquidity to be important measures of liquidity and indicators of its ability to meet its ongoing obligations. The Company also uses net cash and securities and total available liquidity, among other measures, in evaluating its choices for capital deployment. Net cash and securities and total available liquidity are presented herein as non-GAAP measures and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
