Campbell, Calif. – May 13, 2010 – Rainmaker Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: RMKR), a leading global provider of ecommerce solutions and telesales services designed to drive more revenue for clients and their channel partners, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2010.
First quarter net revenue was $14.8 million, gross margin was 58%, and GAAP net income was $395,000, or $0.02 per diluted share. Total cash and cash equivalents increased to $17.1 million at March 31, 2010, compared to $15.1 million at December 31, 2009.
During the first quarter, Rainmaker received a one-time buyout of a customer contract in the amount of $4.6 million, accounted for as revenue. This amount represents approximately six months of revenue under that contract, which the Company would have earned from the termination at the end of February through the end of the minimum term of the contract. Excluding this nonrecurring revenue, first quarter 2010 adjusted net revenue was $10.2 million, compared to net revenue of $10.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2009 and net revenue of $12.4 million in the first quarter of 2009.
Based on information Rainmaker received on April 30, 2010 from a private company in which Rainmaker invested in 2007 in the form of a secured note and a minority equity investment, Rainmaker has taken a non-cash charge in the first quarter of 2010 for the carrying value of its minority equity investment of $740,000.
For comparative purposes, the following discussion of adjusted gross margin, adjusted net loss and non-GAAP net loss excludes the one-time, nonrecurring contract buyout and the write-off of the minority investment (See Exhibit A for reconciliation of net revenue, gross margin and net income (loss) to adjusted net revenue, adjusted gross margin and adjusted net loss; see Exhibit B for a reconciliation of net income (loss) to non-GAAP net loss):
Adjusted gross margin was 39% in the first quarter of 2010, compared to 40% in the preceding quarter and 42% in the first quarter of 2009.
Adjusted net loss for the first quarter of 2010 was $3.5 million, or a loss of $0.16 per share, compared to a net loss for the preceding quarter of $2.5 million, or a loss of $0.13 per share, and a net loss for the first quarter of 2009 of $3.9 million, or a loss of $0.20 per share.
Non-GAAP net loss for the first quarter of 2010 was $2.5 million, or a loss of $0.11 per share.

Total shares outstanding at March 31, 2010 were approximately 22.4 million common shares, which include approximately 2.2 million unvested restricted shares. In addition, Rainmaker had 1.8 million unexercised options and warrants outstanding with a weighted average exercise price of approximately $3.13 per share.

Cash provided by operations in the first quarter of 2010 was $2.7 million and included the $4.6 million buyout of the customer contract. Cash used in the first quarter of 2010 included $510,000 for capital equipment purchases and $265,000 in repayments under our revolving line of credit.

This term loan will be added to Rainmaker's existing loan of $1.7 million and amortized over a three-year period beginning as of April 1, 2010.

Financial Guidance
Conference Call
Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Rainmaker Systems' management evaluates and makes operating decisions using various performance measures. In addition to GAAP results, Rainmaker also considers non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA, which excludes non-cash stock compensation expense from EBITDA. These non-GAAP measures are derived from the revenue generated by Rainmaker's business and the costs directly related to the generation of that revenue, such as costs of services, sales and marketing expenses, technology expenses and general and administrative expenses, that management considers in evaluating the Company's operating performance. These non-GAAP measures exclude certain revenues and expenses that management does not consider to be related to the Company's core operating performance.
Non-GAAP net income (loss) consists of net loss excluding equity plan-related compensation expenses, amortization of purchased intangible assets and certain non-recurring expenses. Stock compensation adjustments were $777,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and represents the current quarter recognition of compensation expense related to stock options and restricted stock awards granted prior to and during the quarter. Non-recurring contract buyout was $4,650,000 and represents approximately six months of revenue under a customer contract, which the Company would have earned from the termination of that contract at the end of February through the end of the minimum term of the contract. Amortization of intangible assets was $201,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and related primarily to the prior acquisitions of Sunset Direct, ViewCentral, Qinteraction, Grow Commerce and Optima. Write-down of the minority investment of $740,000 relates to Rainmaker's carrying value of its equity investment in a private company.
EBITDA was $2.4 million for the first quarter of 2010. EBITDA consists of net income (loss) excluding interest income or expense, income taxes, and depreciation & amortization. Provision for income taxes was $96,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Non-cash charges for depreciation of property and equipment were $938,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Non-cash charges for amortization of acquisition related intangibles were $201,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and related primarily to our prior business acquisitions. Interest and other expense was $814,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and related primarily to a write-down of the carrying value of Rainmaker's minority equity investment of $740,000 . Adjusted EBITDA was $3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and adds back to EBITDA non-cash stock based compensation expense of $777,000 incurred in the first quarter of 2010. See Exhibit C for a reconciliation of GAAP net income (loss) to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA.
To facilitate comparisons to prior periods, Rainmaker also measured in the first quarter adjusted net revenue, adjusted gross margin, adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) per share to exclude the one-time nonrecurring contract buyout and the write-off of the minority investment, as set forth above.
Non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net revenue, adjusted gross margin, adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) per share are supplemental measures of Rainmaker's performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. Moreover, they should not be considered as an alternative to any performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity. Rainmaker presents these non-GAAP measures because management considers them to be important supplemental measures of Rainmaker's operating performance and profitability trends, and because management believes they give investors useful information on period-to-period performance as evaluated by management. Rainmaker believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures provides consistency and comparability with Rainmaker's past financial reports and also facilitates comparisons with other companies in Rainmaker's industry, a number of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results. Management has used these non-GAAP measures when evaluating operating performance because management believes that the inclusion or exclusion of the items described above provides an additional measure of the Company's core operating results and facilitates comparisons of the Company's core operating performance against prior periods and the Company's business model objectives. Rainmaker has chosen to provide this information to investors to enable them to perform additional analyses of past, present and future operating performance and as a supplemental means to evaluation of the Company's ongoing core operations.
