Third Quarter 2007 Results From Continuing Operations
Revenues.Total revenues for the third quarter of 2007 were $107.6 million, which represents an increase of nine percent when compared to $98.5 million for the same period in 2006, and an increase of eight percent when compared to $99.5 million for the second quarter of 2007. A significant portion of the increase in revenue in the third quarter, when compared to these prior quarters, relates primarily to the ComTec and Prairie businesses acquired by CSG during the third quarter.
The components of total revenues were as follows:
• | processing revenues for the third quarter of 2007 were $97.8 million, an increase of eight percent when compared to $90.3 million for the same period last year, and the second quarter of 2007. The revenues of ComTec and Prairie fall within this revenue classification, which accounts for a significant portion of the increase over the prior periods; and |
• | software, maintenance and services revenues were $9.8 million for the current quarter, a 20 percent increase when compared to $8.2 million for the same period last year, and a seven percent increase when compared to $9.2 million for the second quarter of 2007. |
Due to the timing of the transaction, CSG’s financial guidance for the third quarter of 2007 did not include the impact of Prairie, which is discussed in further detail below. As a result, excluding the Prairie results, revenues were approximately $105 million, which is within the range of CSG’s previous financial guidance of $105—$107 million for the quarter.
Results of Operations. Income from continuing operations presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for the third quarter of 2007 was $15.2 million ($0.39 per diluted share), compared to $17.4 million ($0.37 per diluted share) for the same period last year, and $15.6 million ($0.37 per diluted share) for the second quarter of 2007.

CSG’s income from continuing operations of $0.39 per diluted share for the current quarter includes a benefit of $0.02 per diluted share when compared to CSG’s previous guidance expectations as a result of lower outstanding shares for the quarter due to higher than expected stock repurchases during the quarter. Absent the impact of this $0.02 benefit, CSG’s earnings per diluted share were within the range of CSG’s previous financial guidance of $0.36 - $0.38 per diluted share for the quarter.

Safe-Harbor Statement
This news release contains forward-looking statements as defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, that are based on assumptions about a number of important factors and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from what appears in this news release. These factors include, but are not limited to: 1) CSG's ability to continue to perform satisfactorily and maintain good customer relations with its four largest clients, Comcast Corporation, Echostar Communications, Time Warner, Inc., and Charter Communications, which combined make up approximately 70% of CSG’s revenues; 2) the continued acceptance of CSG’s Advanced Convergent Platform and its related products and services; 3) CSG's ability to enhance current products and develop new technology that will retain existing clients and capture new market share; 4) significant forays into new markets, which may prove costly and unprofitable; 5) the degree to which CSG's expectations of market penetration and consumer acceptance of advanced IP services prove true — and even if realized, CSG’s ability to meet the billing and customer care needs of those markets; 6) client consolidation, which has decreased the number of potential buyers for many of CSG's products and services; 7) CSG's ability to renew contracts and sell additional products and services to existing and new clients; 8) CSG's ability to successfully deliver on lengthy and/or complex implementation projects, which by their nature, carry much more risk; and 9) CSG’s ability to successfully integrate and manage acquired businesses or assets in order to achieve the expected strategic, operating and financial goals established for such acquisitions. This list is not exhaustive and readers are encouraged to review the additional risks and important factors described in CSG's reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q and other filings made with the SEC.
