REDWOOD CITY, CA – SupportSoft, Inc. (NASDAQ:SPRT), a provider of software and services that make technology work, today reported unaudited financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2008.
Q3 Financial Summary
Total revenue for the third quarter of 2008 was $12.8 million, as compared to $11.6 million in the second quarter of 2008 and $11.3 million in the third quarter of 2007.
For the third quarter of 2008, total Enterprise revenue was $10.7 million as compared to $10.7 million in the second quarter of 2008 and $11.0 million in the year ago quarter. Third quarter Enterprise revenue consisted of $2.9 million of license revenue, $4.0 million of maintenance revenue and $3.8 million of service revenue.
For the third quarter of 2008, Consumer revenue was $2.1 million as compared to $891,000 in the second quarter of 2008 and $278,000 in the third quarter of 2007.
On a GAAP basis, net loss for the third quarter of 2008 was $4.3 million, or $(0.09) per share, compared to a net loss of $4.3 million, or $(0.09) per share, in the second quarter of 2008 and $5.0 million, or $(0.11) per share, in the third quarter of 2007.
Non-GAAP net loss for the third quarter of 2008 was $3.1 million, or $(0.07) per share, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $3.0 million, or $(0.06) per share, in the second quarter of 2008 and $3.5 million, or $(0.08) per share, in the third quarter of 2007. Non-GAAP results exclude stock compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets and restructuring charges. These items totaled $1.2 million for the third quarter of 2008, $1.4 million for the second quarter of 2008 and $1.5 million for the third quarter of 2007. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results is presented in the tables below.
Cash and total investments at September 30, 2008 were $98.3 million, compared to $100.9 million at June 30, 2008. The change in cash and investments reflects approximately $1.7 million used for operations and $853,000 of incremental unrealized loss for auction rate securities.
“Q3 was a strong quarter across our business, with substantial growth in Consumer revenue and continuing profitability in the Enterprise segment. We believe the revenue growth in Consumer, particularly in the current macro environment, further validates our pursuit of this new market,” said Josh Pickus, President and CEO of SupportSoft.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements regarding our expected future performance as well as assumptions underlying or relating to such statements of expectation, all of which are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We are subject to many risks and uncertainties that may materially affect our business and future performance and cause those forward-looking statements to be inaccurate. All statements in this press release, other than statements that are purely historical, are forward-looking statements. Words such as “outlook,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “believes,” “intends,” “plans,” “continuing,” “seeks,” “forecasts,” “estimates,” “goal,” and similar expressions often identify such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements in this press release include, without limitation, the following: the Company’s expected revenue and non-GAAP net loss for the fourth quarter of 2008; expectations regarding the progress of our collaboration with partners (including the Office Depot rollout) and the anticipated impact of those relationships on our business; anticipated new partner relationships; anticipated pilots; contribution to our revenue from our consumer operations; our continuing ability to run our enterprise business profitably while maintaining revenue; assessments of our future growth; and our future plans, investments and opportunities.
Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: our dependence on our third-party alliances and partnerships to help us provide our software and services to consumers; our ability to establish new partnerships and the potential that such partnerships take longer than we expect to produce revenue or do not produce revenue; the potential that cancellations or delays in rolling out our consumer partner programs (including Office Depot) could decrease our revenues; the cancellation or delay of pilots with new consumer partners or the failure of those pilots to mature into full rollouts; our ability to hire, train and manage home-based consumer technology support agents effectively; our ability to achieve broad adoption and acceptance of our offerings, including the new enterprise offerings announced this quarter; the potential for a decrease in revenue in our enterprise segment caused by our reliance on a few large transactions that generally occur at the end of reporting periods or otherwise; long sales cycles; the ability of our software to operate with hardware and software platforms that are used by our customers now or in the future; our ability to compete successfully in the consumer technology support market and the support automation software market; our limited experience in servicing consumers directly; our ability to manage headcount changes including reductions in force; our ability to successfully integrate any acquisitions including YourTechOnline.com; our ability to profitably manage our enterprise business, including our professional services organization and its cost structure, while maintaining revenue; expectations regarding our international business; fluctuation in our quarterly results; diversion of management attention to strategic matters or litigation; our ability to accurately predict performance; our ability to attract and retain key employees; our ability to obtain and enforce sufficient patent protection; the uncertain economic conditions in the United States and in international markets; further weakness or changes in the market for auction rate securities or in other investments we may hold; a determination, upon completion of further quarterly closing and review procedures, that the financial results for the third quarter are different than the results set forth in this press release; as well as other risks detailed from time to time in our SEC filings, including those described in the “Risk Factors” section in our most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on August 7, 2008. You can locate these filings on the Investor Relations page of our website, www.supportsoft.com/investors.

Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
SupportSoft has excluded stock-based compensation expenses, amortization/write-down of intangible assets and restructuring charges from its GAAP results in order to determine the non-GAAP financial measures of net income/loss and net income/loss per share. Each of the excluded items (as such items are applicable to particular time periods) is discussed in more detail below.
Stock-based compensation — we believe that the non-GAAP measures, excluding stock-based compensation expenses, when viewed in addition to and not in lieu of our reported GAAP results, assist investors in understanding our results of operations. Management excludes stock-based compensation expenses when evaluating its performance from period to period because such expenses do not require cash settlement and because such expenses are not used by management to assess the performance of our business.
Amortization/write-down of intangible assets — we do not acquire businesses on a predictable cycle; therefore management excludes acquisition-related intangible asset amortization and related charges when evaluating its operating performance. We also exclude such charges as they represent non-cash expenses.
Restructuring charges — we believe the non-GAAP measures, excluding restructuring charges, provide meaningful supplemental information to investors in understanding our ongoing operational costs and expenses, without the broad-based termination costs that comprised our restructuring expenses. We do not undertake significant restructurings on a predictable basis and, as result, exclude associated charges in order to enable better and more consistent evaluation of our operating expenses before and after such actions are taken.
We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally to evaluate our performance from period to period and against the performance of other software companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures. We also believe that investors benefit from seeing “through the eyes of management” as our operating budgets and compensation programs are based on the non-GAAP financial measures we present in this press release.
Finally, we believe the non-GAAP measures provide useful supplemental information for investors to evaluate our operating results in the same manner as the research analysts that follow SupportSoft, all of whom present non-GAAP projections in their published reports. As such, the non-GAAP measures provided by us facilitate an “apples to apples” comparison of our performance with the financial projections published by the analysts.
The economic substance behind our decision to use such non-GAAP measures is that such measures approximate our controllable operating performance more closely than the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
The material limitation associated with the use of the non-GAAP financial measures is that the non-GAAP measures do not reflect the full economic impact of our activities and reliance solely on non-GAAP measures may lead management to make business decisions with unanticipated economic consequences on our GAAP financial results. We compensate for this limitation by not relying exclusively on non-GAAP financial measures to make business decisions. We also continuously reevaluate which non-GAAP measures are appropriate.
Amounts related to third quarter of 2008 are subject to completion of management’s and its independent registered public accounting firm’s customary closing and review procedures.

Note 1: The adjustments above reconcile the Company’s GAAP financial results to the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company. The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures exclude restructuring charges, stock-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets from the GAAP financial results. The Company believes that presentation of these non-GAAP items provides meaningful supplemental information to investors, when viewed in conjunction with, and not in lieu of, the Company’s GAAP results. However, the non-GAAP financial measures have not been prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP information should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures. See the text of this press release for more information on non-GAAP financial measures.
2008 amounts are subject to completion of management’s and its independent registered public accounting firm’s customary closing and review procedures.
Note 2: In January 2008, we reorganized the Company and created two business segments, Consumer and Enterprise.
Prior to 2008, the Company conducted its business in one segment. Revenue and cost of revenue are provided on a segment basis, all other operating expenses are incorporated into the overall company results for these periods.
