About Non-GAAP Financial Information
 
ZAGG considers earnings before stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, iFrogz acquisition expenses, iFrogz inventory fair value write-up, provision for income taxes, impairment of note receivable, other expense, and noncontrolling interest ("Adjusted EBITDA") to be an important financial indicator of the Company's operational strength and the performance of its business.
 
In addition, ZAGG considers net income attributable to stockholders before stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, iFrogz acquisition expenses, iFrogz inventory fair value write-up, impairment of note receivable, other expense, expense related to the former CEO’s departure, and noncontrolling interest (“non-GAAP net income attributable to stockholders”) to be a valuable metric of the operational performance of the Company.
 
These results should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), but should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results.
 
A reconciliation of the differences between Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP income attributable to stockholders, and the most comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, is presented under the heading "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Information to GAAP" immediately following the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations included below.
 
Outlook
 
ZAGG is increasing full year guidance for 2012 revenue to $259.0 million —$262.0 million, from the previous forecast of $256 million, and Adjusted EBITDA of $59.0 million — $62.0 million, from the previous range of $56 – $61 million. This compares to reported revenue for 2011 of $179.1 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $45.3 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Disclosure
 
Investors are cautioned that the Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income attributable to stockholders (both defined above) contained in this press release are not financial measures under generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, they should not be construed as alternatives to any other measures of performance determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or as indicators of our operating performance, liquidity or cash flows generated by operating, investing and financing activities, as there may be significant factors or trends that they fail to address. We present this financial information because we believe that it is helpful to some investors as a measure of our performance. We caution investors that non-GAAP financial information, by its nature, departs from traditional accounting conventions; accordingly, its use can make it difficult to compare our current results with our results from other reporting periods and with the results of other companies.
