Press Releases: Salary.com Announces Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2010 Financial Results NEEDHAM, MA, May 25, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX News Network) -- Salary.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: SLRY), a leading provider of on-demand talent management, payroll and compensation solutions, today announced financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year, which ended March 31, 2010. Revenue in the fourth quarter was $10.9 million, a decrease of 4% over the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009. Calculated bookings were $11.7 million, a decrease of 5% over the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009. Non-GAAP operating cash flow, which excludes cash payments for severance and CEO transition costs, was an outflow of $1.1 million in the fourth quarter, compared to an outflow of $481,000 in the fourth quarter of 2009. GAAP operating cash flow was an outflow of $1.9 million in the fourth quarter, compared to an outflow of $1.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2009. For the full year, revenue was $45.8 million, up 8% from fiscal 2009. Calculated bookings were $49.6 million, an increase of 2% from fiscal 2009. Non-GAAP operating cash flow, which excludes cash payments for severance and CEO transition costs, was an outflow of $0.6 million, a substantial improvement from an outflow of $7.3 million in fiscal 2009. GAAP operating cash flow was an outflow of $2.0 million, compared to an outflow of $8.2 million in fiscal 2009. Paul Daoust, interim chief executive officer, stated, "While our non-GAAP net income was within our expected range, we are disappointed to report fourth quarter revenue below our guidance, in addition to not achieving our guidance for positive non-GAAP operating cash flow for the full year. However, we have already begun instituting important changes to drive Salary.com forward. While we have achieved recognized leadership in our compensation, talent management, and consumer businesses, our pursuit of additional growth has come at the expense of cash flow. Therefore, going forward we have made the strategic decision to restructure and realign our business to focus on the product lines where we have a history of delivering positive operating cash flow coupled with the most significant growth opportunities in the future." "We are implementing a plan to reduce the number of businesses we are engaged in from five to three, and reduce the number of products we are developing, selling, and supporting from seventeen to ten. As we concentrate on our leading compensation and talent management products, and our strong consumer brand, we will sell our payroll and sales compensation businesses, and stop the development of certain modules we had on our roadmap such as learning and HRMS." "We believe that this focus on our key strengths will reduce our overall cost structure approximately $ 7.0 million on an annualized basis, and allow us to emphasize the business lines where we have our most successful track record and best prospects for the future. We expect that this go-forward strategy will enable us to not only return to positive operating cash flow, but also to achieve positive non-GAAP earnings on a full-year basis for the first time in the company's history in fiscal 2011. We believe these changes we have made will allow us to further strengthen our dominant position in key markets where we excel, driving long-term shareholder value." Fourth Quarter 2010 Financial Summary -- Fourth quarter revenue was $10.9 million, a decrease of 4% over the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009.Fiscal Year 2010 Financial Summary -- Fiscal year 2010 revenue was $45.8 million, an increase of 8% over fiscal year 2009. -- On a GAAP basis, for the fiscal year 2010, Salary.com reported a net loss of $26.2 million, or ($1.59) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $26.5 million, or ($1.62) per diluted share, in the fiscal year 2009. Additional Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2010 Business Highlights -- Salary.com added approximately 100 new enterprise customers in the fourth quarter fiscal 2010, ending the year with approximately 3,700 enterprise customers. Business Outlook Bryce Chicoyne, Salary.com's chief financial officer said, "We are disappointed with our results for the fourth quarter, with revenue slightly below our guidance. A disputed receivables balance from one payroll customer was resolved after our fourth quarter ended, for which we have already received a $1.2 million payment. We have begun the process of making significant changes to our business strategy that we believe positions us for profitable growth. By reducing resource requirements and making the decision to divest certain business activities, Salary.com will be able to focus on our historical strengths that have driven positive cash flow in the past. We believe our reduced cost structure will enable us to achieve non-GAAP profitability on a full-year basis for the first time in our history, even without improvements in the overall business climate."

Non-GAAP financial measures discussed in the press release relate to the Company's net income and operating expenses and exclude amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, restructuring charges, CEO transition costs and asset impairment charges. This press release also discusses operating cash flows excluding non-recurring severance and CEO transition costs as well. By excluding these items and by providing information on the Company's bookings in addition to its GAAP revenues, Salary.com can evaluate its operations and can compare its results on a more consistent basis to the results of other companies in the industry. Management uses the non-GAAP financial measures for planning purposes, including the preparation of operating budgets and to determine appropriate levels of operating and capital investments. Management also believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide additional insight for analysts and investors in evaluating the Company's financial and operational performance and in assisting investors in comparing the Company's financial performance to those of other companies in the Company's industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be an alternative to financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from our GAAP results of operations. Pursuant to the requirements of the SEC Regulation G, a detailed reconciliation between the Company's GAAP and non-GAAP financial results is provided in this press release and investors are advised to carefully review and consider this information as well as the GAAP financial results that are disclosed in the Company's SEC filings.
