Macrovision Corporation Reports Record Second Quarter 2004 Revenues


2 August 2004, 4:30pm ET

SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 2, 2004--Macrovision Corporation (Nasdaq:MVSN) announced today that second quarter 2004 net revenues were a record $35.7 million, compared with $29.2 million in the second quarter of 2003, an increase of 22%. Pro forma earnings (before amortization of intangibles from acquisitions, non-cash deferred compensation expense, and impairment gains and losses on investments) were $9.5 million or 14% higher than the $8.4 million recorded in last year's second quarter. Pro forma diluted earnings per share for the quarter were $0.19, or 12% higher than the comparable pro forma earnings per share of $0.17 in the second quarter a year ago.

Net income for the second quarter of 2004 was $8.8 million or 93% higher than the $4.6 million recorded in the second quarter a year ago. Diluted earnings per share for the quarter were $0.18, or 100% higher than the comparable earnings per share of $0.09 in the second quarter a year ago.

Cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term marketable securities were $302.4 million as of June 30, 2004.

"We are very pleased with our second quarter results," said Ian Halifax, CFO at Macrovision. "Our revenues benefited from continued strong performance in our DVD and pay-per-view (PPV) copy protection business and our enterprise software value management business. The second quarter was important to us for a number of reasons, including the announcement of our acquisition of InstallShield(R) Software Corporation; important legal victories that establish a broad scope for key patents related to the Company's software licensing solutions; the introduction and first sales of FLEXnet(TM) Manager, our software asset management system; and the successful launch of our Hawkeye(TM) peer-to-peer file sharing content management service. Revenues for the third quarter of 2004 are estimated to be in the $45-$47 million range, with pro forma EPS of $0.18-$0.19. For the full year 2004, we anticipate revenues of $170M-$175M, with pro forma EPS of $0.86-$0.88. These projections include the impact of the InstallShield acquisition for the second half of the year."

The Company continues to use pro forma reconciliation condensed consolidated statements of income in the presentation of financial results and earnings guidance. Management believes that this presentation may be more meaningful in analyzing the results of operations and income generation, as non-cash, non-operating or non-recurring items (such as amortization of intangibles from acquisitions, amortization of deferred stock-based compensation, impairment losses on investments, in-process research and development write-off and restructuring charges) are excluded from the pro forma earnings calculation. This presentation may be considered more indicative of our ongoing operational performance. The tables below present the differences between pro forma earnings and net income on an absolute and per share basis.
