Double-Take Software, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2007 Financial Results

SOUTHBOROUGH, Mass., Oct 25, 2007 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Double-Take Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: DBTK), a leading provider of recovery solutions, today announced its financial results for the third quarter 2007.

"We are very pleased with our financial and operational performance for the third quarter. Both income and sales were above our expectations and we have made great progress in our R&D and marketing efforts, particularly in the area of developing capabilities to continuously redeploy full systems across wide areas for physical and virtual environments," said Dean Goodermote, Chairman of the Board and CEO of Double-Take Software, Inc.

Total revenue for the quarter, which consists of software revenue, maintenance and professional services revenue, increased 29.8% to $21.3 million in the third quarter of 2007 from $16.4 million in the third quarter of 2006.

Software revenue increased 23.3% to $12.6 million in the third quarter of 2007 from $10.2 million in the third quarter of 2006. Maintenance and professional services revenue increased 40.6% to $8.7 million in the third quarter of 2007 from $6.2 million in the third quarter of 2006.

Operating expenses for the third quarter of 2007 increased 28.1% to $14.7 million from $11.5 million in the third quarter of 2006. Included in operating expenses are the following items:

-- Stock option expense of $1.1 million in the third quarter of 2007 compared to $0.5 million in 2006.

-- Amortization of intangible assets related to the acquisition of Double-Take EMEA of $0.2 million for the third quarter of 2007 and 2006.

Income from operations was $4.6 million in the third quarter of 2007 compared to $2.7 million in the third quarter of 2006.

The Company recorded a tax expense of $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2007 compared to $0.3 million in the third quarter of 2006.

Net income attributable to common stockholders was $3.3 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2007 compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $0.4 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2006.

Income from operations on an adjusted, non-GAAP basis in the third quarter of 2007 was $5.8 million, compared to $3.2 million in the third quarter of 2006. Adjusted, non-GAAP net income before accretion and dividends on preferred stock in the third quarter of 2007 was $4.0 million, compared to $3.0 million in the third quarter of 2006. Dividend and accretion charges occurred until our Initial Public Offering in December 2006 when all preferred shares were converted into common shares.

Adjusted, non-GAAP net income per diluted share was $0.17 in the third quarter of 2007. We calculate these adjusted non-GAAP income measures by excluding the effects in the respective periods of the non-cash SFAS 123R and other stock-based compensation expenses described as components of Operating Expenses above net of the related income taxes. An explanation of these non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation of these measures to GAAP results are provided in the tables included in this press release, and these measures should only be viewed together with the reconciliation and the further explanation given under "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.

Cash, cash equivalents, and short term investments at September 30, 2007 totaled $67.4 million.

In connection with the follow-on offering completed in August, the Company and its executive officers, directors and certain stockholders agreed not to sell any of their shares (aggregating a total of approximately 3.8 million shares), with certain exceptions, until the expiration of a 90 day lock-up period. However, as provided in the lock-up agreements, the issuance of the Company's earnings announcement has extended the original lock-up period. Consequently, the lock-up period will end on November 11, 2007.

Guidance

Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2007 is anticipated to be in the range of $23.1 to $23.6 million and adjusted non-GAAP operating income is expected to be $5.3 to $5.5 million. The effective income tax rate for the fourth quarter is expected to be approximately 35% to 40% and non-GAAP net income per share is expected to be in the range of $0.15 to $0.16 per share excluding the impact of stock-based compensation charges. Weighted average diluted shares using the treasury method are expected to be approximately 23.2 to 23.3 million shares.

After taking the results of the third quarter of 2007 into account, the Company is increasing its full year revenue, operating income and earnings per share guidance. Full-year 2007 revenue is now expected to be in the range of $82.3 to $82.8 million. Non-GAAP operating income is expected to be $18.3 to $18.5 million and adjusted, non-GAAP income per share for the full year 2007 is expected to be in the range of $0.81 to $0.82 excluding the impact of stock based compensation charges and using an estimated full year effective tax rate of approximately 10% to 12%. The full year effective tax rate includes the effects of the deferred tax benefit recorded during Q2 2007. Weighted average diluted shares using the treasury method are assumed to be approximately 23.1 to 23.2 million shares.

See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and "Important Note to Investors" below

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Double-Take Software, Inc. has provided in this press release adjusted financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are identified above as "adjusted, non-GAAP" measures. Double-Take Software, Inc. uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes they are useful to investors, as a supplement to, but not as a substitute for, GAAP measures, in evaluating the Company's operational performance. Double-Take Software, Inc. believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating operating results and trends, and in comparing its financial results with other companies in Double-Take Software, Inc.'s industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. The historical non-GAAP financial measures presented above exclude the following item required to be included by GAAP: non-cash stock-based compensation charges. The Company's expectations for adjusted, non-GAAP income and income per share for the third quarter of 2007 and full-year 2007 exclude the impact of stock-based compensation charges, the amount and significance of which, because of the information and assumptions underlying those charges, cannot readily be determined at this time.

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. A reconciliation of historic non-GAAP financial measures presented above to GAAP results has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release.

(2) Represents noncash stock-based compensation charges associated
 with vesting options for the former CEO.

(3) Presentation of non-GAAP net loss per share prior to accretion and
 dividends on preferred shares for 2006 has not been made because the
 effect would be anti-dilutive. For the three months ended September
 30, 2006, non-GAAP income per share excluding stock based
 compensation but including accretion and dividends on preferred
 shares would have been $0.15 per share. For the nine months ended
 September 30, 2006, non-GAAP income per share excluding stock based
 compensation but including accretion and dividends of preferred
 shares would have been $0.02 per share.
