BRIDGEWATER, N.J.—(BUSINESS WIRE)—July 31, 2006—Synchronoss Technologies, Inc.: Synchronoss Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNCR), a leading software provider of order management solutions to the communications services marketplace today announced its operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2006.
Stephen G. Waldis, President and Chief Executive Office of Synchronoss, stated, “We are very pleased with the company’s performance in the second quarter, which was highlighted by an increase in our sequential revenue growth and contribution from recently added VoIP related customers which was better than we expected.” Waldis added, “Strong growth in wireless data services, the continued rapid adoption of VoIP and the increasing use of the e-commerce channel in the Communication Service Providers market are driving strong demand for our on-demand transaction management platform. Synchronoss is well positioned to capitalize on these trends due to our Tier One customer base across each key market segment and our clear technology leadership position.”
For the second quarter of 2006, Synchronoss reported net revenue of $17.4 million, representing an increase of 27% on a year-over-year basis and 11% on a sequential basis. Gross profit for the second quarter of 2006 was $7.8 million, including the impact of fair value stock compensation expense, representing a related gross margin of 44.7%.
Lawrence Irving, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, stated, “In the first quarter of 2006 we signed several large Communication Service Providers as customers targeting the VoIP market. We are pleased with the initial automation rates we realized when looking at this group of customers taken as a whole, and this helped to drive gross margins and operating income that was better than we had originally expected. Expanding our gross margins over time is a key strategic priority as it will help Synchronoss to expand our overall profitability from already strong levels.”
For the second quarter of 2006, Synchronoss reported income from operations, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), of $2.3 million. This included $337,000 of non-cash, fair value stock-based compensation expense. GAAP net income was $1.4 million for the second quarter of 2006, leading to GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.05.
Non-GAAP gross profit for the second quarter of 2006 was $7.9 million, an increase of 36% on a year-over-year basis. The related gross margin for the second quarter of 2006 was 45.4%, an increase of over 310 basis points from the 42.3% from the second quarter of 2005. Non-GAAP income from operations, which excludes fair value stock-based compensation expense, was $2.6 million or a non-GAAP operating margin of 15.2% during the second quarter of 2006. Based on a 41.6% effective tax rate, non-GAAP net income was $1.6 million, leading to non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.06.
A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
Synchronoss had cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $61.8 million at June 30, 2006, an increase of $45.8 million as compared to the end of the prior fiscal year, due primarily to proceeds from the recently completed
initial public offering and secondarily to positive cash flow from operations. Of note, on July 3, 2006, the company’s underwriters exercised the over-allotment option associated with the initial public offering, generating $7.1 million in net proceeds that is not reflected in the company’s cash balance at June 30, 2006.
Other Highlights
| • | | Synchronoss’s relationship with Cingular Wireless remained very strong, highlighted by the highest level of transaction volumes in the company’s history. In addition, business outside of the Cingular relationship, which is primarily driven by customers targeting the VoIP market, grew approximately 24% sequentially to 32% of total revenues, up from 29% of total revenues in the prior quarter. |
|
| • | | In the second quarter of 2006, Synchronoss added SunRocket to its industry leading customer base. SunRocket, one of the nation’s fastest-growing Internet phone service providers, signed an exclusive three-year agreement for Synchronoss’ ActivationNow Technology Platform. |
