Operating Segment Results
For the quarter ended December 31, 2011, Tech & Clearance segment revenues increased 25% year-over-year to $31.1 million or 66% of Dice Holdings' consolidated revenues. Growth was driven by a 16% increase in the average number of recruitment package customers served at Dice.com to 8,300, as well as a 10% increase in the average monthly revenue those customers generated. In addition, revenues from ClearanceJobs.com increased 18% year-over-year.
The Finance segment accounted for 24% of Dice Holdings' consolidated revenues in the fourth quarter of 2011. eFinancialCareers revenues for the fourth quarter of 2011 increased 15% year-over-year to $11.1 million.
In the fourth quarter of 2011, the Energy segment represented 9% of consolidated revenues. The energy segment grew 56% year-over-year to contribute $4.2 million in revenues in the quarter ended December 31, 2011, reflecting an increase in the number of customers utilizing Rigzone's career center.
Other segment revenues increased 24% to $0.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 from the comparable 2010 period. The Other segment includes AllHealthcareJobs and Targeted Job Fairs.
Full Year Operating Results
Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2011 increased 39% to $179.1 million, as compared to $129.0 million in the same period in 2010. Recruitment activity at Dice.com and eFinancialCareers improved as compared to the same period a year ago. In addition, the energy segment contributed revenues of $15.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, driven in part by the acquisitions of Rigzone (August 11, 2010) and WorldwideWorker (May 6, 2010). Currency translation from pound sterling to U.S. dollars favorably impacted revenues for the year ended December 31, 2011 by $1.4 million from the comparable 2010 period.
By segment, Tech & Clearance revenues increased 30% to $115.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. In the same period, the Finance segment contributed revenues of $45.0 million, an increase of 33% (or 29% measured in pound sterling). The Energy segment contributed $15.6 million and Other segment revenues increased 35% to $3.5 million. On a pro forma basis, Energy segment revenues would have increased 53% year-over-year had Rigzone and WorldwideWorker been owned for the entire 2010 year.

Management Comments
Scot Melland, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “The fourth quarter caps a terrific year for the company. Every single brand in our online portfolio - from Dice to AllHealthcareJobs - eclipsed previous annual revenue records. It's clear the efficiency in our services, combined with our specialty focus, continues to be highly valued by hiring managers and recruiters." Mr. Melland added, "We are excited about 2012 and expect to grow even in a more uncertain recruiting environment. Our strategic priorities are unchanged: expand the number of customers using our services, capitalize on the global opportunity in our energy vertical and serve more markets around the world."
Mike Durney, Senior Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer, commented, “Our record financial performance was aided by our distinct advantage - efficient recruiting of highly skilled professionals. This results in consistently high-levels of profitability and free cash flow - which topped $60 million this year. We've repurchased over 2 million shares of stock since the initiation of the program in the fall." Mr. Durney added, "We will continue to focus on profitable growth making prudent investments to optimize our opportunities."

Notes Regarding the Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Dice Holdings, Inc. (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 in the United States ("GAAP") and may be different from non-GAAP measures reported by other companies. The Company believes that its presentation of non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, non-cash stock based compensation expense, and other non-recurring income or expense (“Adjusted EBITDA”), free cash flow, net cash and net debt, provides useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the Company's management uses these measures for reviewing the financial results of the Company and for budgeting and planning purposes.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is a metric used by management to measure operating performance. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure for internal monitoring and planning, including preparation of annual budgets, analyzing investment decisions and evaluating profitability and performance comparisons between us and our competitors. The Company also uses this measure to calculate amounts of performance based compensation under the senior management incentive bonus program. Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in our Credit Agreement, represents net income (loss) plus (to the extent deducted in calculating such net income (loss)) interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock option expenses, losses resulting from certain dispositions outside the ordinary course of business, certain writeoffs in connection with indebtedness, impairment charges with respect to long-lived assets, expenses incurred in connection with an equity offering, extraordinary or non-recurring non-cash expenses or losses, transaction costs in connection with the Credit Agreement up to $250,000, deferred revenues written off in connection with acquisition purchase accounting adjustments, writeoff of non-cash stock compensation expense, and business interruption insurance proceeds, minus (to the extent included in calculating such net income (loss)) non-cash income or gains, interest income, and any income or gain resulting from certain dispositions outside the ordinary course of business.
We consider Adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, to be an important indicator to investors because it provides information related to our ability to provide cash flows to meet future debt service, capital expenditures and working capital requirements and to fund future growth as well as to monitor compliance with financial covenants. We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure because we believe that this measure provides our board of directors, management and investors with additional information to measure our performance, provide comparisons from period to period and company to company by excluding potential differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting interest expense) and tax positions (such as the impact on periods or companies of changes in effective tax rates or net operating losses), and to estimate our value.
We present Adjusted EBITDA because covenants in our Credit Agreement contain ratios based on this measure. Our Credit Agreement is material to us because it is one of our primary sources of liquidity. If our Adjusted EBITDA were to decline below certain levels, covenants in our Credit Agreement that are based on Adjusted EBITDA may be violated and could cause a default and acceleration of payment obligations under our Credit Agreement.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our profitability or liquidity.
6
Free Cash Flow
We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities adding back the portion of payment of Rigzone acquisition contingency included in operating activities on the cash flows statement minus capital expenditures. We believe free cash flow is an important non-GAAP measure as it provides useful cash flow information regarding our ability to service, incur or pay down indebtedness or repurchase our common stock. We use free cash flow as a measure to reflect cash available to service our debt as well as to fund our expenditures. A limitation of using free cash flow versus the GAAP measure of net cash provided by operating activities is that free cash flow does not represent the total increase or decrease in the cash balance from operations for the period since it excludes cash used for capital expenditures during the period.
Net Cash/Net Debt
Net Cash is defined as cash and cash equivalents and investments less total debt. Net Debt is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents and investments. We consider Net Cash and Net Debt to be important measures of liquidity and indicators of our ability to meet ongoing obligations. We also use Net Cash and Net Debt, among other measures, in evaluating our choices for capital deployment. Net Cash and Net Debt presented herein are non-GAAP measures and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on those statements because they are subject to numerous uncertainties and factors relating to our operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Forward-looking statements include information concerning our possible or assumed future results of operations, including descriptions of our business strategy. These statements often include words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate” or similar expressions, including without limitation statements under the heading “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” These statements are based on assumptions that we have made in light of our experience in the industry as well as our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect our actual financial results or results of operations and could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, competition from existing and future competitors in the highly competitive developing market in which we operate, failure to adapt our business model to keep pace with rapid changes in the recruiting and career services business, failure to maintain and develop our reputation and brand recognition, failure to increase or maintain the number of customers who purchase recruitment packages, cyclicality or downturns in the economy or industries we serve, the failure to attract qualified professionals to our websites or grow the number of qualified professionals who use our websites, the failure to successfully identify or integrate acquisitions, U.S. and foreign government regulation of the Internet and taxation, our ability to borrow funds under our revolving credit facility or refinance our indebtedness and restrictions on our current and future operations under our credit facility. These factors and others are discussed in more detail in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, under the headings “Risk Factors,” “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, all of which are available on the Investor Relations page of our website at www.diceholdingsinc.com.
You should keep in mind that any forward-looking statement made by us herein, or elsewhere, speaks only as of the date on which we make it. New risks and uncertainties come up from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict these events or how they may affect us. We have no obligation to update any forward-looking statements after the date hereof, except as required by federal securities laws.
