BigBand Announces Second Quarter 2010 Results

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., August 4th, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) — BigBand Networks, Inc., (NASDAQ: BBND), a leader in digital video networking, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010.

Revenues for the second quarter of 2010 were $26.4 million, compared to $39.0 million for the second quarter of 2009. GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2010 was $9.6 million, or ($0.14) per share, compared to GAAP net income of $3.1 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, reported in the second quarter of 2009.

On a non-GAAP basis, the Company reported a net loss of $5.1 million, or ($0.07) per share, in the second quarter of 2010. This compares to net income of $6.0 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, reported in the second quarter of 2009. Second quarter 2010 non-GAAP results exclude primarily $3.6 million in stock-based compensation expense and $1.0 million related to restructuring charges. Our non-GAAP results for the quarters reflect the adjustments described in the Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures attached to this press release.

The Company closed the second quarter of 2010 with $163.1 million in cash and marketable securities.

“During the second quarter, we increased our Switched Digital Video footprint to more than 37 million households and worked with customers to advance their IPTV deployments,” commented Amir Bassan-Eskenazi, President and CEO of BigBand Networks. “I am encouraged by the progress we have made in our products and technology. We expect these investments to yield long-term growth and shareholder value.”

Third Quarter 2010 Business Outlook:

For the third quarter of 2010, management provides the following outlook:

• Net revenues are expected to be in the range of $24 million to $27 million.

• GAAP gross margins are expected to be in the range of 52% to 54%.

• Non-GAAP gross margins are expected to be in the range of 54% to 56%.

• GAAP operating expenses are expected to be in the range of $22.0 million to $22.5 million.

• Non-GAAP operating expenses, excluding stock-based compensation expense, are expected to be in the range of $19.0 million to $19.5 million.

• GAAP net loss per share is expected to be in the range of ($0.11) to ($0.14).

• Non-GAAP net loss per share is expected to be in the range of ($0.06) to ($0.09).

The following table shows our non-GAAP outlook for the quarter ending September 30, 2010 reconciled to our GAAP outlook.

	Estimated Loss per Share
	Low			High
GAAP net loss		($0.11	)		($0.14	)
Stock-based compensation and related income taxes		0.05			0.05
Non-GAAP net loss		($0.06	)		($0.09	)

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

BigBand reports all financial information required in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), but we believe that evaluating our ongoing operating results may be difficult to understand if limited to reviewing only GAAP financial measures. Many of our investors have requested that we disclose non-GAAP information because it is useful in understanding our performance as it excludes non-cash and other one-time charges or benefits that many investors feel may obscure our true operating results. Likewise, management uses non-GAAP measures to manage and assess the profitability of our business going forward and does not consider stock-based compensation expense and related taxes, or restructuring charges in managing our operations. Specifically, management does not consider these expenses/benefits when developing and monitoring our budgets and spending. The economic substance behind our decision to exclude stock-based compensation relates to these charges being non-cash in nature. We exclude restructuring charges, as they are one-time events. As a result, we use calculations of non-GAAP operating income, net income, net income per share and gross margin, which exclude these expenses when evaluating our ongoing operations and allocating resources within the organization.

As a result, our management believes it is useful for itself and investors to review both GAAP information that includes such charges and non-GAAP financial measures that exclude these charges because management believes such information enables readers of these financial results to have a better understanding of the overall performance of our ongoing business operations in the periods presented.

Whenever we use a non-GAAP financial measure, we provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the most closely applicable GAAP financial measure. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the

reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
