FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2011
 
Revenue
 
 
Total revenues for 3Q11 were $122.7 million, up 8% as compared to $114.1 million in 3Q10. Managed Services revenues were $39.3 million in 3Q11, up 28% as compared to $30.8 million in 3Q10. Messaging Services revenues were $58.7 million in 3Q11, down slightly in comparison to $58.8 million in 3Q10. B2B Software and Services, Data Synchronization, and Custom Outsourcing revenues were $24.7 million in aggregate for 3Q11, up 1% as compared to $24.5 million in 3Q10.
 
Our total revenues for 3Q11 and 3Q10 have been negatively impacted by the write-down of certain deferred revenue from RollStream, Inc. (“RollStream”) in relation to the acquisition of RollStream on March 28, 2011 and from Inovis International, Inc. (“Inovis”) in relation to the acquisition of Inovis on June 2, 2010, in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). These amounts totaled $0.1 million (predominantly related to RollStream) and $1.4 million (solely related to Inovis) in 3Q11 and 3Q10, respectively. Adjusting for such write-downs, pro forma total revenues for 3Q11 were $122.8 million, up 6% as compared to $115.6 million in 3Q10. Pro forma Managed Services revenues were $39.4 million in 3Q11, up 27% as compared to $31.0 million in 3Q10. Pro forma Messaging Services revenues were $58.7 million in 3Q11, down 1% as compared to $59.1 million in 3Q10. Pro forma aggregate B2B Software and Services, Data Synchronization, and Custom Outsourcing revenues were $24.7 million in 3Q11, down 3% as compared to $25.4 million in 3Q10.

Management relies upon Adjusted EBITDA as a primary measure to review and assess operating performance of its business and management team.

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 $25.2 million at the end of 3Q11, as compared to $15.1 million at the end of 2Q11. There were no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility at the end of 3Q11 as compared to $16.0 million outstanding at the end of 2Q11. At the end of both 3Q11 and 2Q11, $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 $63.5 million and $37.4 million at the end 3Q11 and 2Q11, respectively.
 
Capital expenditures (“CAPEX”) were $11.9 million in 3Q11, as compared to $7.4 million in 3Q10.
 
 
CUSTOMER ACQUISITION ACTIVITY
 
Total MCV for 3Q11 was $44.7 million, as compared to $40.2 million in 3Q10. Sales activity in 3Q11 continued to be focused predominantly on new Managed Services deals which represented 72% of total MCV in the quarter as compared to 76% in the same quarter last year.

MCV is the incremental future minimum committed revenue of new sales agreements signed in the current period by our 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.
 

 
 
NEW AND REVISED FINANCIAL GUIDANCE
 
 
For 4Q11, revenues are expected to be in the range of $121 to $123 million and Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $42 to $44 million. This would result in FY11 revenue of between $477 and $479 million, higher than prior guidance of $470 to $475 million, and FY11 Adjusted EBITDA of between $154 and $156 million, within the range of previous guidance for FY11 of $150 to $160 million. Guidance for CAPEX for FY11 is increased to $41 to $43 million from our prior guidance of $38 to $41 million based on expected CAPEX of $7 to $9 million in 4Q11, and MCV guidance for FY11 is increased to $165 to $170 million from $155 to $165 million based on expected MCV of $45 to $50 million in 4Q11. 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.
