The increase in operating expenses in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to the same quarter of the prior year is primarily due to increased investment in the iDigi® platform and the full reinstatement for fiscal 2011 of the incentive compensation program which had been only partially reinstated in fiscal 2010. Operating expenses in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 benefited by $0.4 million, or 0.8% of revenue, due to a reduction of the restructuring reserve because expenses associated with the plan were less than expected.

For the six months ended March 31, 2011, Digi reported net income of $4.6 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, compared to net income for the six months ended March 31, 2010 of $2.9 million, or $0.12 per diluted share.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “may,” “will,” “expect,” “plan,” “project,” “should,” or “continue” or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or similar terminology. Such statements are based on information available to management as of the time of such statements and relate to, among other things, expectations of the business environment in which the company operates, projections of future performance, perceived opportunities in the market and statements regarding the company’s mission and vision. Such statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including risks related to the highly competitive market in which the company operates, rapid changes in technologies that may displace products sold by the company, declining prices of networking products, the company’s reliance on distributors, delays in the company’s product development efforts, uncertainty in consumer acceptance of the company’s products, uncertainty in global economic conditions which could negatively affect product demand and the financial solvency of the company’s customers and suppliers, the impact of natural disasters such as the earthquake and tsunami in Japan that could negatively impact the company’s supply chain and customers, the ability to achieve the anticipated benefits and synergies associated with acquisitions, and the changes in the company’s level of revenue or profitability. These and other risks, uncertainties and assumptions identified from time to time in the company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including without limitation, its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2010 and its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, could cause the company’s future results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the company. Many of such factors are beyond the company’s ability to control or predict. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date for which they are made. The company disclaims any intent or obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
This release includes historical non-GAAP operating income, net income and net income per diluted share data.
Digi understands that there are material limitations on the use of non-GAAP measures. Non-GAAP measures are not substitutes for GAAP measures, such as operating income or net income, for the purpose of analyzing financial performance. The disclosure of these measures does not reflect all charges and gains that were actually recognized by the company. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for measures prepared in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Digi believes that non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with Digi’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate Digi’s results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.
Digi believes that providing historical and projected operating income, net income and net income per diluted share exclusive of the change in estimate of restructuring expenses and reversals of tax reserves and discrete tax benefits permits investors to compare results with prior periods that did not include these items.
Digi International Reports Second Fiscal Quarter 2011 Results
Management uses the aforementioned non-GAAP measures to monitor and evaluate ongoing operating results and trends and to gain an understanding of the comparative operating performance of the Company. In addition, shareholders in the Company have expressed an interest in seeing financial performance measures exclusive of the impact of decisions relating to taxes and restructuring, which while important, are not central to the core operations of Digi’s business.
