"Q2 was another solid quarter. We delivered approximately 42% year-over-year revenue growth, added cash to the balance sheet, and posted our third consecutive quarter of profitability. We achieved continued growth in our user base both nationally and internationally, and we continued to expand the portfolio of apps we offer our toolbar and homepage users," commented Peter Corrao, Vertro's President and CEO.
"While we are pleased to have continued our recent trend of increasing sequential quarterly revenue, we believe our growth in the second quarter was tempered by our focus on regaining compliance with NASDAQ's shareholder equity requirement. We cautiously managed our customer acquisition program during the quarter to try and ensure that we could regain compliance with only a minimal capital raise. We are pleased to have now regained compliance with the NASDAQ shareholder equity requirement and expect to get back to more robust revenue growth for the remainder of 2010 and beyond."

Vertro believes that "EBITDA," "Adjusted EBITDA," "Adjusted net income/loss," and "Adjusted net income/loss per share" provide meaningful measures for comparison of the Company's current and projected operating performance with its historical results due to the significant changes in non-cash amortization that began in 2004 primarily due to certain intangible assets resulting from mergers and acquisitions that have since been written off. Vertro defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization) plus non-cash compensation expense and plus or minus certain identified revenues or expenses that are not expected to recur or be representative of future ongoing operation of the business. Vertro uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as internal measures of its business and believes they are utilized as important measures of performance by the investment community. Vertro sets goals and awards bonuses in part based on performance relative to Adjusted EBITDA. Vertro defines Adjusted net income/loss as net income/loss plus amortization and non-cash compensation expense, plus or minus certain identified revenues or expenses that are not expected to recur or be representative of future ongoing operation of the business, in each case including the tax effects (if any) of the adjustment. Vertro believes the use of these measures does not lessen the importance of GAAP measures.
