TheStreet Reports Second Quarter 2011 Results
| · | Revenue from Ongoing Businesses Highest in Eleven Quarters, Up 4% Year-Over-Year |

| · | Average Monthly Unique Visitors Up 33% Year-Over-Year |
NEW YORK (August 3, 2011) – TheStreet (NASDAQ: TST), a leading digital financial media company, today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2011. The Company reported revenue of $15.0 million, a net loss of $(1.7) million and Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $0.7 million for the quarter.
“While the growth rates we experienced in the first quarter moderated as the level of uncertainty in the global financial markets increased and advertisers and investors became more cautious -- particularly as the quarter progressed -- we nonetheless saw a number of key proof points which confirm to us that the Company’s strategy is gaining traction,” said Daryl Otte, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.
“Notably, revenue in both our ongoing businesses continued to grow and in total represented the highest it has been in eleven quarters. This quarter’s performance also highlights the operating leverage in our business model -- while revenue increased on a sequential basis by 6% our operating expenses remained stable. As a result, the company’s Adjusted EBITDA was positive for the quarter and for the first half of the year.
“Other key metrics improved, especially with respect to the demand for our content, as the internally-measured average monthly unique visitors to our network grew by 33% year-over-year. This audience growth, a direct result of the investments made in technology and distribution for our content over the past year, propelled the Company into the top ten rankings in June 2011, up two ranking points compared to the same period last year, as measured by comScore for its broad Business/Finance News/Research category.
“Other notable trends include an increasing rate of subscription revenue growth, resulting from the conversion of recent quarters’ stronger bookings performance to revenue; as well as growth in both the average number of paid subscriptions in the quarter and the average revenue per subscriber – both measured on a year-over-year basis as well as sequentially. Finally, our balance of cash and marketable securities increased by $1.8 million during the quarter," concluded Mr. Otte.
Financial Highlights of Second Quarter 2011
The Company’s ongoing businesses(2) recorded revenue of $15.0 million in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of 4% as compared to the second quarter of 2010. Including revenue from the Company’s former businesses(2) reported in the 2010 period, the Company’s revenue increased 2% in the second quarter as compared to the 2010 period.
| · | Premium Services bookings increased 9% in the second quarter of 2011 as compared to the prior year period. |
| · | Premium Services revenue from ongoing businesses was $10.1 million in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of 4% compared to the prior year period. As the majority of the Company’s Premium Services products are sold on an annual subscription basis, Premium Services revenue is largely a function of prior period bookings. |
| · | The average number of paid subscriptions reached 93,125 in the second quarter of 2011, compared to an average of 89,792 in the second quarter of 2010. |
| · | Average monthly churn(3) was 3.6% in the second quarter of 2011, compared to 3.9% in the second quarter of 2010 and 3.4% in the first quarter of 2011. |
| · | Marketing Services revenue was $5.0 million in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of 2% compared to the prior year period and an increase of 10% compared to the first quarter of 2011. |
| · | Average monthly unique visitors to the Company’s network of sites for the second quarter of 2011, as measured internally, were up 33% as compared to the prior year period. |
Operating expenses for the Company’s ongoing businesses in the second quarter of 2011 were $16.9 million, an increase of 12% as compared to the prior year period and a decrease of 1% on a sequential basis. Including the former businesses reported in the 2010 period, the Company’s operating expenses of $16.9 million in the second quarter of 2011 reflect an increase of 11% as compared to the prior year period. The increase in operating expenses for the Company’s ongoing businesses over the prior year period is primarily a result of a $0.8 million increase in cost of services expense, a net reduction of $0.8 million in the prior year period related to a net gain on the disposition of assets partially offset by an impairment charge, a $0.5 million increase in depreciation and amortization, and a $0.3 million increase in sales and marketing expense, offset in part by a $0.5 million reduction in general and administrative expense.
The Company had a net loss of $(1.7) million in the second quarter of 2011 from its ongoing businesses, as compared to a net loss of $(0.4) million from such ongoing businesses in the prior year period. Including the former businesses reported in the 2010 period, the Company reported a net loss of $(1.7) million in the second quarter of 2011 as compared to a net loss of $(0.3) million in the 2010 period. The Company reported basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders of $(0.05) and $(0.05), respectively, in the second quarter of 2011, as compared with $(0.01) and $(0.01), respectively, in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA for the Company’s ongoing businesses was $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2011, as compared to $0.9 million in the prior year period.
The Company ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities of $77.4 million, an increase of $1.8 million when compared to March 31, 2011. The Company achieved positive free cash flow(1) for the first six months of 2011. Capital expenditures were $0.5 million for the quarter.

(1) To supplement the Company’s financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company uses non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance, including “EBITDA,” “Adjusted EBITDA” and “free cash flow.” EBITDA is adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. This non-GAAP measure is provided to enhance investors’ overall understanding of the Company’s current financial performance and its prospects for the future. Specifically, the Company believes that the non-GAAP EBITDA results are an important indicator of the operational strength of the Company’s business and provide an indication of the Company’s ability to service debt and fund capital expenditures. EBITDA eliminates the uneven effect of considerable amounts of noncash depreciation of tangible assets and amortization of certain intangible assets that were recognized in business combinations. Adjusted EBITDA further eliminates the impact of noncash stock compensation and impairment expenses, restructuring charges and other non-standard one-time charges. A limitation of these measures, however, is that they do not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in the Company’s businesses. Management evaluates the investments in such tangible and intangible assets through other financial measures, such as capital expenditure budgets and investment spending levels. “Free cash flow” means net (loss) income plus non-cash expenses net of gains/losses on dispositions of assets, less changes in operating assets and liabilities and capital expenditures. The Company believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is an important indicator of the Company’s financial results because it gives investors a view of the Company’s ability to generate cash.
The above information with respect to the Company’s ongoing businesses is presented as a non-GAAP measure for illustrative purposes regarding the exclusion of the former businesses. These excluded results are not meant to represent a reflection of the operating activities of the divested B&I Business (defined below) as if on a fully stand-alone basis. The B&I Business historically was not considered an operating segment and management did not measure and maintain certain separate discrete financial information, including cash flows, for the B&I Business.
The above measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. The non-GAAP measure included in this press release has been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure.
(2) The Company’s ongoing businesses exclude (i) the Company’s former Promotions.com subsidiary, which the Company divested in December 2009; (ii) the banking and insurance ratings business (“B&I Business”) of TheStreet Ratings, which the Company divested in May 2010; and (iii) revenue derived from the global research legal settlement that expired in July 2009 (collectively, the “former businesses”).
(3) Average monthly churn rate is defined as subscriber terminations/expirations in the quarter divided by the sum of the beginning subscribers and gross subscriber additions for the quarter, then divided by three. Subscriptions that are on a free-trial basis are not regarded as added or terminated unless the subscription is active at the end of the free-trial period.
All statements contained in this press release other than statements of historical facts are deemed forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including those described in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements contained herein are made as of the date of this press release. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot guarantee future results or occurrences. The Company disclaims any obligation to update these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.
