MINNEAPOLIS - July 27, 2006 --
Digital River, Inc. (NASDAQ: DRIV), a global leader in e-commerce outsourcing,
today reported its second quarter 2006 financial results.
Q2
Revenue
Second quarter revenue totaled $71.3 million, an
increase of 39 percent from revenue of $51.1 million in the second quarter of
2005.
Q2 GAAP Results
Second quarter GAAP
net income was $13.3 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, including $3.5 million
of stock-based compensation expense. This compared to net income of $10.2
million, or $0.26 per diluted share, including no stock-based compensation
expense in the second quarter of 2005. These results represent a year-over-year
increase of 30 percent in GAAP net income and 15 percent in GAAP diluted net
income per share.
Q2 Non-GAAP Results
Based
on the Company’s non-GAAP measurements, second quarter non-GAAP net income was
$18.7 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, compared to net income, on a similar
basis, of $12.1 million, or $0.29 per diluted share in the second quarter of
2005. This represents a year-over-year increase of 54 percent in non-GAAP net
income and 41 percent in non-GAAP diluted net income per share.
Non-GAAP
net income is computed by starting with GAAP pre-tax income as reported on the
Company’s statement of operations, adding back amortization of
acquisition-related intangibles, and beginning in 2006, stock-based compensation
expense, to calculate non-GAAP pre-tax income. This figure is then taxed at 31
percent, the Company’s anticipated effective tax rate, to arrive at non-GAAP net
income. This amount is then divided by fully-diluted GAAP shares outstanding,
which includes the impact of the Company’s contingent convertible notes, to
derive non-GAAP diluted net income per share. To provide further clarity, a
detailed reconciliation on the comparability of the GAAP and non-GAAP data has
been provided in table form following the financial statements accompanying this
announcement.

expense in the first half of 2005.
Six Months Ended June 30,
2006, Non-GAAP Results:
Based on the Company’s non-GAAP

million, or $0.65 per diluted share in the first half of 2005.
“We are
pleased with our solid second quarter results,” said Joel Ronning, Digital
River’s CEO. “During last quarter, we continued to excel in global online
