|

|
| • | Continued focus on customer service and satisfaction, including the creation of a customer leadership council |

In January 2005, the Company created NaviSite India Private Limited, based in New Delhi, India, to expand NaviSite’s international footprint and provide the ability to rapidly scale operations and broaden the Company’s service offerings. Growth highlights for the India office in the third quarter include:
| • | The Company continued to hire professionals in engineering, management and network operations center functions, establishing the framework to accelerate our expansion during the upcoming quarters |
|
| • | Delivered remote infrastructure management services, managed messaging, networking and PeopleSoft application services and expanded into key growth areas, such as EnterpriseOne and Oracle DBA services |
NaviSite continued to make strides in its Company-wide initiatives to streamline operational expenses. As part of this effort, in February 2005, NaviSite signed an agreement which provided a Las Vegas-based company the use of approximately 29,000 square feet of space and the sale of infrastructure equipment in the Las Vegas data center in exchange for an initial payment of $600,000 and approximately $55,000 per month until February 2007. NaviSite retained approximately 2,000 square feet in the data center to service and support its current and future customers.
NaviSite expanded its marketing efforts to reflect the updated positioning of the Company and showcase its comprehensive portfolio of offerings, which include outsourcing services, professional services and SaaS. As part of this expanded marketing focus, NaviSite re-designed and re-launched its Web site which now allows Web site visitors to directly use chat functionality with NaviSite personnel as an additional channel of communication.

“NaviSite continues its steady climb to improve operational efficiency, with our record EBITDA and continued customer traction,” said Arthur Becker, CEO of NaviSite. “We anticipate revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2005, ending July 31, 2005, will be in the range of $26.3 million to $26.8 million and EBITDA, excluding impairment and other one-time charges, to be between $3.7 million and $4.2 million.” We have yet to realize the positive impact on expenses from our India operation which we anticipate will commence in the first quarter of fiscal year 2006.
EBITDA
EBITDA is not a recognized measure for financial statement presentation under United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). The Company believes that the non-GAAP measure of EBITDA provides investors with a useful supplemental measure of the Company’s actual and expected operating and financial performance by excluding the impact of interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and non-cash compensation. The Company also excludes impairment and other one-time charges from its non-GAAP measure, as such items may be considered to be of a non-operational nature. EBITDA does not have any standardized definition and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other reporting companies. Management uses EBITDA to assist in evaluating the
Page 3 of 10
Corporate Headquarters: 400 Minuteman Road, Andover MA, 01810 USA
Company’s actual and expected operating and financial performance. These non-GAAP results should not be evaluated in isolation of, or as a substitute for, the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. A table reconciling the Company’s net loss, as reported, to EBITDA is included in the consolidated financial statements in this release. The Company believes that using expected EBITDA as a performance measure, together with expected net loss, will help investors better understand the Company’s underlying financial performance. A table reconciling expected net loss to expected EBITDA for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2005 is also included in this release.
