BRIDGEWATER, NJ — May 7, 2012 — Synchronoss Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: SNCR), the world’s leading provider of transaction management, cloud enablement and connectivity services for connected devices, today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2012.
“We are pleased with the company’s performance during the first quarter, which contributed to revenue coming in at the high end of our guidance, continued non-GAAP gross margin expansion and profitability exceeding our expectations,” said Stephen G. Waldis, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Synchronoss.
Waldis added, “The success of our cloud-based mobility services strategy is evidenced by our expanded relationship with Verizon Wireless. We believe our multi-year agreement provides a solid opportunity for us to deploy the first ever comprehensive carrier based subscriber cloud platform designed to manage millions of devices for a unique and personalized experience. With both Verizion and Vodafone subscribers as anchor clients, we feel we are well positioned to drive our expanded roadmap over the coming years.”
For the first quarter of 2012, on a GAAP basis, Synchronoss reported net revenues of $64.6 million, representing an increase of 22% compared to the first quarter of 2011. Gross profit was $35.9 million and income from operations was $8.3 million in the first quarter of 2012. Net income applicable to common stock was $5.5 million, leading to diluted earnings per share of $0.14, compared to $0.04 for the first quarter of 2011.
On a non-GAAP basis, Synchronoss reported net revenues, which adds back the purchase accounting adjustment related to revenues for certain acquisitions, of $64.9 million, an increase of 22% compared to the first quarter of 2011. Gross profit for the first quarter of 2012 was $37.5 million, representing a gross margin of 58%. Income from operations was $15.3 million in the first quarter of 2012, representing a year-over-year increase of 27% and an operating margin of 24%. Net income was $10.1 million in the first quarter of 2012, leading to diluted earnings per share of $0.26, an increase of 30% compared to $0.20 for the first quarter of 2011.
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.”
Lawrence R. Irving, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, said “Synchronoss’ non-GAAP gross margin expanded by over 150 basis points on a year-over-year basis and over 100 basis points on a sequential basis. The primary driver to our gross margin expansion continues to be carriers’ growing adoption and scaling of cloud-based services associated with our highly differentiated ConvergenceNow® Plus+ platform.”
Other First Quarter and Recent Business Highlights:
· Today announced the expansion of its enhanced ConvergenceNow® Plus+ cloud enablement and synchronization platform for Tier One Operators. This enhanced and scalable cloud enablement platform will enable Tier One Operators to deliver a comprehensive and personalized cloud experience to their subscribers across all connected devices.
· Business outside of the AT&T relationship accounted for approximately $32.3 million of non-GAAP revenue, representing approximately 50% of total revenue. Verizon Wireless remained the largest contributor to Synchronoss’ business outside of AT&T, representing over 10% of Synchronoss’ revenue for the quarter. Business related to AT&T accounted for approximately $32.6 million of non-GAAP revenue, representing the other 50% of total revenue.
· Announced the relocation and expansion of its Bridgewater, New Jersey corporate headquarters into an 80,000 SF facility in Bridgewater Crossing.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Synchronoss has provided in this release selected financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. This information includes historical non-GAAP revenues, gross profit, operating income, net income, effective tax rate, earnings per share and cash flows from operating activities. Synchronoss uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating Synchronoss’ ongoing operational performance. Synchronoss believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends, and in comparing its financial results with other companies in Synchronoss’ industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. As noted, the non-GAAP financial results discussed above add back the deferred revenue write-down associated with acquisitions, fair value stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related costs, changes in the contingent consideration obligation, deferred compensation expense related to earn outs and amortization of intangibles associated with acquisitions.
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as detailed above. As previously mentioned, a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release.
