Intermix Reports First Quarter Financial Results
LOS ANGELES, CA, August 15, 2005 – Intermix Media, Inc. (AMEX: MIX) filed its quarterly report for the quarter ended June 30, 2005, with the Securities and Exchange Commission today. The Company reported record revenue of $26.7 million for the first quarter of its 2006 fiscal year, an increase of 59 percent over the same quarter last year. The Company also reported net income of $1.2 million for the first quarter, compared to net income of $130,000 in the same period last year. First-quarter earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses (“EBITDA”) were $2.9 million, compared to $870,000 in the same period last year. Net income and EBITDA for the first quarter ended June 30, 2005 include $1.0 million of previously deferred gain recorded in connection with the Company’s sale of its Skilljam business in July of 2004.
Product marketing segment revenues for the first quarter increased 32 percent to $13.9 million, up from $10.6 million for the same quarter last year. This increase is primarily due to higher sales of the Hydrodermtm product line at the Company’s Alena business unit.
Network segment revenues for the first quarter increased 106 percent to $12.7 million, up from $6.2 million for the same period last year. This increase is primarily due to the growth of MySpace, the Company’s acquisition of Focalex, Inc. in November 2004, and to increased sales of branded advertising.
In light of the Company’s announcement on July 18, 2005, of its entry into an agreement with Fox Interactive Media, Inc. (“FIM”) and certain of its affiliates providing for the merger of the Company with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of FIM (the “Merger”), the Company has not scheduled and does not intend to hold a conference call to discuss the financial results announced today nor does the Company intend to update or provide any further information with respect to any previously issued forecasts.

Note 1 | Amounts represent 6 percent per annum accretion of the liquidation preference related to the Company’s Series A preferred stock, as well as the accrual of payment-in-kind dividends related to the Company’s Series C and Series C-1 preferred stock. The accrual of dividends related to Series C preferred stock terminated as of October 31, 2004 in accordance with the terms of such preferred stock. The accrual of dividends related to Series C-1 preferred stock will continue through September 30, 2005 and totals approximately $50,000 per quarter. |
Note 2 | In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached final consensus on EITF 03-6, “Participating Securities and the Two-Class Method under FASB Statement No. 128,” which requires companies that have participating securities to allocate undistributed earnings to common shares and participating securities based on the proportion of undistributed earnings that each would have been entitled to had all the period’s earnings been distributed. The Company’s Series A, B and C preferred stock are participating securities as defined in EITF 03-6, in that such preferred stock would be entitled to either liquidation proceeds in preference to common stockholder or dividends in preference to common stockholders, if and when such a dividend would be declared. Both liquidation preference and preferred dividends would be in accordance with predetermined formulas. EITF 03-6 was effective for fiscal periods beginning after March 31, 2004 and earnings per share reported in prior periods must be retroactively adjusted to comply with EITF 03-6. The Company adopted EITF 03-6 in the quarter ended September 30, 2004. EITF 03-6 had no impact on prior year per share amounts because of the net losses for the prior periods. |

Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDA (Note 1)

Note (1) - EBITDA included in this press release is a non-GAAP measure that is defined as net income excluding the effects of interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses; and impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets. EBITDA as defined above may not be similar to EBITDA measures used by other companies and are not measurements under generally accepted accounting principles.
We believe that EBITDA provide useful information to investors about the Company’s performance because they eliminate the effects of period to period changes in costs associated with capital investments, impairment of assets related to those investments and interest on debt and capital lease obligations that we do not believe are reflective of the underlying performance of the Company’s business operations. Management uses EBITDA in evaluating the overall performance of the Company’s business operations.
Although management finds EBITDA useful for evaluating aspects of the Company’s business, its reliance on this measure is limited because the excluded items often have a material effect on the Company’s earnings and earnings per share calculated in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, management always uses EBITDA in conjunction with GAAP earnings and earnings per share measures. The Company believes that EBITDA provides investors with an additional tool for evaluating the Company’s core performance, which management uses in its own evaluation of performance, and a base line for assessing the future earnings potential of the Company. While the GAAP results are more complete, the Company provides investors with this supplemental metric since, with reconciliation to GAAP, it may allow for greater insight into the Company’s financial results.
