DATALINK REPORTS 2012 SECOND QUARTER AND SIX MONTH OPERATING RESULTS

 

Second Quarter and Six Month Revenues Up 34% and 36% Year-Over-Year, Respectively

 

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn., July 26, 2012 — Datalink (Nasdaq: DTLK), a leading provider of data center infrastructure and services, today reported results for its second quarter and six months that ended June 30, 2012.  Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, increased 34% to $120.0 million compared to $89.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.  Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012, increased 36% to $239.1 million compared to $175.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

 

GAAP Results

 

On a GAAP basis, the company reported net earnings of $3.2 million or $0.18 per diluted share for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012.  This compares to net earnings of $2.7 million or $0.16 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the company reported net earnings of $5.4 million or $0.31 per diluted share, compared to net earnings of $4.4 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

 

Non-GAAP Results

 

Non-GAAP net earnings for the second quarter of 2012 were $4.0 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net earnings of $3.3 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2011.  For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the company reported non-GAAP net earnings of $6.9 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net earnings of $5.5 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2011.  A

 



 

detailed reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP information is contained in the tables included herein.

 

Datalink’s results for the first two quarters of 2012 include the additional 3.3 million common shares issued by the company in connection with the follow-on stock offering in March 2011 and the results of operations from the acquisition of Midwave Corporation, which was completed on October 3, 2011.

 

Highlights of the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2012, include:

 

·                  Record second quarter and first six month revenues and earnings.

 

·                  Continuing improvement in non-GAAP operating margin, reaching 5.6% in second quarter 2012 compared to 4.1% in the previous quarter.

 

·                  Record $42.7 million combined customer support and professional services revenues in second quarter 2012, up 29% from second quarter 2011 and 10% from first quarter 2012. Second quarter professional services revenues alone were up 17% from first quarter 2012 and 100% from the comparable quarter in 2011.

 

·                  Continued growth in customers who did over $1 million of business with the company from 15 in second quarter 2011 to 22 in second quarter 2012.

 

·                  A 31% second quarter increase in virtual data center (VDC) sales, with 24 VDC projects valued at $21.7 million in second quarter 2012 compared to 17 VDC projects valued at $16.6 million in first quarter 2012.

 

·                  Achievement of Flexpod Premium Partner status from Cisco and NetApp, becoming the first North American channel partner to achieve the new certification.

 

·                  Introduction of new managed monitoring and managed backup services, which are among the latest initiatives to increase margins by expanding the company’s services portfolio.

 

“We turned in a solid revenue and earnings performance in the first half of 2012, and our pipeline continues to grow because of rising demand for modern data center infrastructures.  At

 



 

the same time, longer sales cycles that we began to see the last month of the quarter impacted our second quarter revenue.  Companies are scrutinizing large capital expenditures more carefully than in the past, and we expect that pattern to continue for the remainder of the year,” said Paul Lidsky, Datalink’s president and CEO. “We have taken that into account in our third-quarter guidance.”

 

Outlook

 

Based on the company’s current backlog, sales pipeline and lengthening sales cycles, the company projects revenues of $117 million to $122 million for the third quarter of 2012 compared to $90.2 million for the third quarter of 2011.  This represents an increase in expected revenues of between 30% and 35%. The company expects third quarter 2012 net earnings to be between $0.16 and $0.21 per diluted share on a GAAP basis, and net earnings of between $0.20 and $0.25 per diluted share on a non-GAAP basis.  This compares to net earnings of $0.16 per diluted share and $0.21 per diluted share on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis, respectively, for the same period in 2011.

 

Non-GAAP earnings per share exclude the effect of acquisition accounting adjustments from the Incentra acquisition to deferred revenue and costs, integration and transaction costs related to the Midwave acquisition, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, and the related effects on income taxes. The company estimates this total effect will be approximately $0.04 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2012.

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for certain forward-looking statements.  This press release contains forward-looking statements, including our internal projections of anticipated results for the third quarter of 2012, which reflect our views regarding future events and financial performance.  These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including those identified below, which could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or those anticipated.  The words “aim,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “project,” “should” and other expressions which indicate future events and trends identify forward-looking statements.  Actual future results and trends may differ materially from historical results or those anticipated depending upon a variety of factors, including, but not limited to:  the level of continuing demand for storage, including the effects of current economic and credit conditions; competition and pricing pressures and timing of our installations that may adversely affect our revenues and profits; the length of our sales cycle; fixed employment costs that may impact profitability if we suffer revenue shortfalls; revenue recognition policies that may unpredictably defer reporting of our revenues; our ability to hire and retain key technical and sales personnel; our dependence on key suppliers; our ability to adapt to rapid technological change; risks associated with integrating our acquisition of Midwave, as well as possible future acquisitions; fluctuations in our quarterly operating results; future changes in applicable accounting rules; and volatility in our stock price. Further, our revenues for any particular quarter are not necessarily reflected by our backlog of contracted orders, which also may fluctuate unpredictably.  We cannot assure that we can grow or maintain our revenue and backlog from current levels.  Additional factors that may cause actual results to differ from our assumptions and expectations include those set forth in our most recent filing on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Any forward-looking statement made by us in this press release is based only on information currently available to us and speaks only as of the date on which it is made.  We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

 



 

Non-GAAP Details

 

Non-GAAP financial measures exclude the impact from acquisition accounting adjustments to deferred revenue and costs, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquisition intangible assets, integration and transaction costs related to acquisitions and the related effects on income taxes.  These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for measures prepared in accordance with, GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. We believe that non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate our results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.

 

These non-GAAP financial measures facilitate management’s internal comparisons to our historical operating results and comparisons to competitors’ operating results. We include these non-GAAP financial measures in our earnings announcement because we believe they are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making, such as employee compensation planning. We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP measures when shown in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures provides useful information to investors and management regarding financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and results of operations.
