Web.com Reports Record Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2011 Financial Results

 

·Fourth quarter revenue and profitability exceed high end of Web.com’s guidance
·Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) grew 4% sequentially in 4Q (excluding Network Solutions), increased 13% in FY11
·Customer retention improves to new record level
·Net debt reduction of $23 million since Network Solutions acquisition; repayment ahead of schedule

 

JACKSONVILLE, FL – February 16, 2012 – Web.com Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: WWWW), a leading provider of internet services and online marketing solutions for small businesses, today announced results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2011.

 

“Web.com delivered revenue and profitability that were above our expectations for the fourth quarter, representing a strong finish to a record year and a great start to Web.com’s future following the Network Solutions acquisition,” said David Brown, Chairman and CEO of Web.com. “During 2011, we completed the integration of Register.com and delivered on each of our key objectives, including accelerated revenue growth, ARPU expansion, reduced customer churn and strong profitability and cash flow generation.”

 

“We are excited about Web.com’s outlook as we begin 2012. By replicating integration and growth strategies that have been successful in the past, we are making excellent progress incorporating the Network Solutions organization, and are quite pleased with the contribution our joint teams are already making in just this short period of time. In addition to building on our track record of driving ARPU growth, we believe that we are well positioned to stabilize and grow our much larger subscriber base as we proceed through 2012. With far greater resources, we believe we have the opportunity to drive shareholder value as we use the combined company’s strong cash flow to invest in growth initiatives as well as rapidly de-lever our balance sheet.”

 

Summary of Fourth Quarter 2011 Financial Results:

 

·Total revenue, calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), was $73.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, compared to $37.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2010. Non-GAAP revenue, which adds back the impact of the fair value adjustment to acquired deferred revenue, was $96.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, above the company’s guidance range of $93.0 million to $95.0 million.

 

·Operating loss, calculated in accordance with GAAP, was $32.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2011 and included a $23.4 million negative impact related to the fair value adjustment to acquired deferred revenue and prepaid registry fees, and $17.0 million of restructuring charges and corporate development expenses. For the fourth quarter of 2010, the company reported a GAAP operating loss of $4.4 million which included a $7.6 million negative impact from the fair value adjustment to acquired deferred revenue and prepaid registry fees.

 

 
 

 

 

·GAAP net income from continuing operations was $3.6 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2011, and included the above mentioned impact related to the fair value adjustment to acquired deferred revenue and prepaid registry fees, restructuring charges and corporate development expenses, and an income tax benefit of $53.7 million. GAAP net loss from continuing operations was $16.1 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2010.

 

·Non-GAAP operating income was $23.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, compared to $8.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 and representing a record non-GAAP operating margin of 24%.

 

·Non-GAAP net income from continuing operations was $12.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, or $0.28 per diluted share, above the company’s guidance of $0.22 to $0.24 per diluted share. The Company had non-GAAP net income of $6.6 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2010.

 

·Adjusted EBITDA was $24.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, compared to $9.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 and representing a record 26% adjusted EBITDA margin.

 

·The Company generated cash from operations of $4.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2011 and $13.4 million excluding the pay down of accrued restructuring expenses and certain expenses associated with the Network Solutions acquisition. This compared to $6.8 million and $8.0 million, excluding corporate development expenses associated with the Register.com acquisition, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2010.

 

Fourth Quarter and Recent Business Highlights:

 

·Web.com’s average revenue per user (ARPU), excluding the contribution from Network Solutions, was $17.38 for the fourth quarter of 2011, representing a sequential increase of 4% from $16.73 in the third quarter of 2011 and up 13% over the prior year period. On a proforma basis and including the contribution from Network Solutions, ARPU was $12.86 for the fourth quarter of 2011.

 

·Web.com’s customer churn, excluding the contribution from Network Solutions, was 1.6% for the fourth quarter of 2011, representing a new record level and down from 1.7% in the prior two quarters. Customer churn was approximately 1% for the fourth quarter of 2011 including the contribution from Network Solutions.

 

·Web.com’s total net subscribers were approximately 2,957,000 at the end of the fourth quarter of 2011 due to the addition of Network Solutions’ subscriber base during the fourth quarter, and up from 913,000 subscribers at the end of the third quarter. The 2,957,000 subscriber level takes into account the overlap of approximately 40,000 shared customers between Web.com and Network Solutions.

 

 
 

 

 

Excluding the contribution from Network Solutions, Web.com saw a reduction of 4,800 subscribers in the fourth quarter. This represents a significant improvement compared to the loss of 13,000 subscribers sustained in the third quarter of 2011 and the loss of 20,000 subscribers per quarter experienced by Register.com prior to its acquisition by Web.com. Including the 5,700 subscribers Network Solutions lost during the partial quarter, the combined company lost 10,500 net subscribers in the period.

 

·After receiving Web.com shareholder approval, we successfully completed the acquisition of Network Solutions from NetSol Holdings LLC on October 27, 2011.

 

·Web.com reduced its highest-interest-cost, second lien debt by $30 million during the fourth quarter of 2011 using a combination of cash and $12 million from its lower-interest-cost revolving credit facility. The company also made a $5 million prepayment on its first lien loan in January 2012. Both repayments were in advance of the debt repayment schedule.

 

Summary of Full Year 2011 Financial Results:

 

·Total revenue, calculated in accordance with GAAP, was $199.2 million for 2011, compared to $120.3 million for 2010. Non-GAAP revenue, which adds back the impact of the fair value adjustment to acquired deferred revenue, was $234.4 million for 2011, compared to $133.4 million in 2010.

 

·Operating loss, calculated in accordance with GAAP, was $40.8 million for 2011 and included a $36.0 million negative impact related to the fair value adjustment to acquired deferred revenue and prepaid registry fees as well as $22.6 million in restructuring charges and corporate development expenses. For 2010, the company reported GAAP operating loss of $14.5 million which included a $13.3 million negative impact from the fair value adjustment to acquired deferred revenue and prepaid registry fees, as well as $5.1 million in restructuring charges and corporate development expenses.

 

·GAAP net loss from continuing operations was $9.6 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, for 2011 and included the above mentioned impact related to the fair value adjustment to acquired deferred revenue and prepaid registry fees, restructuring charges and corporate development expenses, and a $53.0 million income tax benefit. GAAP net loss from continuing operations was $6.6 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, in 2010.

 

·Non-GAAP operating income was $50.2 million for 2011, compared to $21.4 million for 2010 and representing a record non-GAAP operating margin of 21%.

 

·Non-GAAP net income from continuing operations was $35.3 million for 2011, or $1.05 per diluted share, compared to $18.4 million, or $0.68 per diluted share for 2010.

 

 
 

 

 

·Adjusted EBITDA was $54.2 million for 2011, compared to $24.3 million for 2010 and representing a record 23% adjusted EBITDA margin.

 

·Cash flow from operations was $14.9 million for 2011 and $30.9 million excluding the pay down of accrued restructuring expenses, and certain expenses associated with the Network Solutions acquisition.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Some of the measures in this press release are non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of the SEC Regulation G. Web.com believes presenting non-GAAP measures is useful to investors, because it describes the operating performance of the company, excluding some recurring charges that are included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Web.com’s management uses these non-GAAP measures as important indicators of the Company’s past performance and in planning and forecasting performance in future periods. The non-GAAP financial information Web.com presents may not be comparable to similarly-titled financial measures used by other companies, and investors should not consider non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or in substitution for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP. You are encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures included elsewhere in this press release.

 

 
 

 

 

Relative to each of the non-GAAP measures Web.com presents above, management further sets forth its rationale as follows:

 

·Non-GAAP Revenue.  We exclude from non-GAAP revenue the impact of the fair value adjustment to deferred revenue because we believe that excluding such measures helps management and investors better understand our revenue trends.

 

·Non-GAAP Operating Income. Web.com excludes from non-GAAP operating income amortization of intangibles, fair value adjustment to deferred revenue and prepaid registry fees, restructuring charges, corporate development expenses and stock-based compensation charges. Management believes that excluding these items assists investors in evaluating period-over-period changes in Web.com’s operating income without the impact of items that are not a result of the Company’s day-to-day business and operations.
·Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Net Income Per Diluted Share. Web.com excludes from non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share amortization of intangibles, income tax expense, fair value adjustment to deferred revenue and prepaid registry fees, restructuring charges, corporate development expenses, amortization of deferred financing fees, stock-based compensation, and includes cash income tax expense, because management believes that excluding such measures helps investors better understand the Company’s operating activities.
·Adjusted EBITDA. Web.com excludes from Adjusted EBITDA depreciation expense, amortization of intangibles, income tax, interest expense, interest income, stock-based compensation, corporate development expenses, and restructuring charges, because management believes that excluding such items helps investors better understand the Company's operating activities.
·In respect of the foregoing, Web.com provides the following supplemental information to provide additional context for the use and consideration of the non-GAAP financial measures used elsewhere in this press release:
·Stock-based compensation. These expenses consist of expenses for employee stock options and employee stock purchases under ASC 718-10. While stock-based compensation expense calculated in accordance with ASC 718-10 constitutes an ongoing and recurring expense, such expense is excluded from non-GAAP results because it is not an expense that typically requires or will require cash settlement by Web.com and because such expense is not used by management to assess the core profitability of the Company’s business operations. Web.com further believes these measures are useful to investors in that they allow for greater transparency to certain line items in our financial statements. In addition, excluding this item from various non-GAAP measures facilitates comparisons to the Company’s competitors’ operating results.
·Amortization of intangibles. Web.com incurs amortization of acquired intangibles under ASC 805-10-65. Acquired intangibles primarily consist of customer relationships, non-compete agreements, trade names, and developed technology. Web.com expects to amortize for accounting purposes the fair value of the acquired intangibles based on the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible assets will be consumed as revenue is generated. Although the intangible assets generate revenue for Web.com, the item is excluded because this expense is non-cash in nature and because the Company believes the non-GAAP financial measures excluding this item provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operational performance. In addition, excluding this item from various non-GAAP measures facilitates management’s internal comparisons to Web.com’s historical operating results and comparisons to the Company’s competitors’ operating results.
·Depreciation expense. Web.com incurs depreciation expense associated with its fixed assets. Although the fixed assets generate revenue for Web.com, the item is excluded because this expense is non-cash in nature and because the Company believes the non-GAAP financial measures excluding this item provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operational performance, liquidity and its ability to invest in research and development and fund acquisitions and capital expenditures. In addition, excluding this item from certain non-GAAP measures facilitates management’s internal comparisons to Web.com’s historical operating results and comparisons to the Company’s competitors’ operating results.

 

 
 

 

·Amortization of deferred financing fees. Web.com incurs amortization expense related to deferred financing fees. This item is excluded because Web.com believes the non-GAAP measures excluding this item provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operational performance. In addition, excluding this item from various non-GAAP measures facilitates management’s internal comparisons to Web.com’s historical operating results and comparisons to the Company’s competitors’ operating results.
·Restructuring charges. Web.com has recorded restructuring charges. Web.com excludes the impact of these expenses from its non-GAAP measures, because such expense is not used by management to assess the core profitability of the Company’s business operations.
·Income tax expense. Due to the magnitude of Web.com’s historical net operating losses and related deferred tax asset, the Company excludes income tax expense from its non-GAAP measures primarily because they are not indicative of the cash tax paid by the Company and therefore are not reflective of ongoing operating results. Further, excluding this non-cash item from non-GAAP measures facilitates management’s internal comparisons to the Company’s historical operating results. Web.com also excludes income tax expense altogether from certain non-GAAP financial measures because the Company believes that the non-GAAP measures excluding this item provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operational performance and facilitates management’s internal comparisons to the Company’s historical operating results and comparisons to the Company’s competitors’ operating results.
·Fair value adjustment to deferred revenue and prepaid registry fees. Web.com has recorded a fair value adjustment to acquired deferred revenue and prepaid registry fees in accordance with ASC 805-10-65. Web.com excludes the impact of this adjustment from its non-GAAP measures, because doing so results in non-GAAP revenue and non-GAAP net income which are reflective of ongoing operating results and more comparable to historical operating results, since the majority of the Company’s revenue is recurring subscription revenue. Excluding the fair value adjustment to deferred revenue and prepaid registry fees therefore facilitates management’s internal comparisons to Web.com’s historical operating results.
·Corporate development expenses. Web.com incurred expenses relating to the acquisition and successful integration of acquisitions. Web.com excludes the impact of these expenses from its non-GAAP measures, because such expense is not used by management to assess the core profitability of the Company’s business operations.
