Website Information
We routinely post important information for investors on our website www.ExactTarget.com in the "Investor Relations" section. We intend to use this website as a means of disclosing material, non-public information and for complying with our disclosure obligations under Regulation Fair Disclosure. Accordingly, investors should monitor the Investor Relations section of our website, in addition to following our press releases, SEC filings, public conference calls, presentations and webcasts. The information contained on, or that may be accessed through, our website is not incorporated by reference into, and is not a part of, this document.




Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes information about non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net (Loss)/Income and Adjusted Net (Loss)/Income per Share. We believe these measures provide important supplemental information regarding our operating performance and are often used by investors and analysts in their evaluation of companies such as ours. In addition, we use Adjusted EBITDA as a key measurement of our operating performance because it assists us in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis by removing the impact of certain non-cash and non-operating items. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as Net (Loss)/Income before (1) other (income) expense, which includes interest income, interest expense and other income and expense, (2) income tax expense (benefit), (3) depreciation and amortization of property and equipment, (4) amortization of intangible assets and (5) stock-based compensation. Adjusted Net (Loss)/Income is calculated as Net (Loss)/Income before (1) amortization of intangible assets, and (2) stock-based compensation. Adjusted Net (Loss)/Income per Share is calculated as Adjusted Net (Loss)/Income divided by weighted average shares outstanding on a GAAP basis. These non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. Adjusted Net (Loss)/Income and Adjusted EBITDA reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that we believe, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business.

Safe Harbor Statement
This press release contains forward-looking statements about expected financial metrics such as revenue, Adjusted Net (Loss)/Income and Adjusted Net (Loss)/Income per Share. The achievement or success of the matters covered by such forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. If any such risks or uncertainties materialize or if any of the assumptions prove incorrect, the company’s results could differ materially from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements we make. The risks and uncertainties referred to above include - but are not limited to - risks associated with possible fluctuations in the company’s financial and operating performance; attracting and retaining clients; defects or errors in the company’s solutions; unexpected decrease in clients’ use of email; ability to gain customer acceptance of cross-channel marketing; changes in domestic and international data privacy regulations; compromises of the company’s security measures; infrastructure scalability; third-party hardware and software; competition; the company’s ability to hire, retain and motivate employees and manage the company’s domestic and international growth; successful client deployment and utilization of the company’s existing and future solutions; changes in the company’s sales cycle; various financial aspects of the company’s subscription model; unexpected increases in attrition or decreases in new business; the emerging markets in which the company operates; unique aspects of entering or expanding in international markets; litigation related to intellectual property and other matters, and any related claims, negotiations and settlements; unanticipated changes in the company’s effective tax rate; fluctuations in the number of shares we have outstanding and the price of such shares; foreign currency exchange rates; interest rates; and general developments in the economy, financial markets, and credit markets. Further information on these and other factors that could affect the company’s financial results is included in the Registration Statement on Form S-1 we filed earlier in 2012 in connection with our initial public offering as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Additional information will also be set forth in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, annual reports on Form 10-K and other filings that we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
