LONGMONT, Colo. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — August 3, 2010 — DigitalGlobe, Inc. (NYSE: DGI), a leading global provider of commercial high-resolution earth imagery products and services, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010.
Second quarter 2010 revenue was $81.0 million, an increase of 16% compared with the same period last year. Second quarter 2010 net income was $0.5 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared with net income of $8.4 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the same period last year. Net income for the second quarter included the impact of accelerating the depreciation of certain software assets, which impacted pre-tax results by $1.9 million, or $0.04 per diluted share.
Second quarter 2010 Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $44.2 million, compared with second quarter 2009 Adjusted EBITDA of $42.4 million.
“We are very pleased with our record second quarter results. Our double-digit top-line growth was propelled by strong commercial results and continued execution in our direct access program. The addition of WorldView-2 to our constellation at the beginning of the year has been instrumental to our growth, providing materially faster, more reliable collection, refresh and monitoring for our customers. We are also pleased with the progress we are making in expanding our finished product and service offerings,” said Jill Smith, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We continue to have great confidence that we will reach the 2010 milestones for our business across all of our key performance metrics.”
Second Quarter Business Highlights
- Defense and Intelligence segment revenue was $63.2 million, up 8% compared with the second quarter 2009, driven primarily by the company’s Direct Access Program (DAP), which generated $9.6 million in the quarter. The company brought its third and fourth DAP customers into operation in the quarter.
- Commercial segment revenue was $17.8 million, up 52% compared with the second quarter 2009, driven primarily by strength in consumer and international civil government, which make up nearly two-thirds of segment revenue.
- In the quarter, the company delivered substantially all of its tasking orders within 45 days, reinforcing the industry-leading collection, refresh and monitoring capabilities of its constellation.
- The company’s ImageLibrary now holds more than 89 percent of the earth’s landmass, with 79 percent of its imagery less than two years old.
- The company continues to expand its finished product and service offerings, including the launch of its Advanced Ortho Series and expanded global web services and cloud computing offerings.
- In the quarter, the company extended two core value added services contracts with the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), Rapid Delivery of Online Geo-Spatial Intelligence (RDOG) and Crisis Event Service.
Full-Year 2010 Outlook
The company reaffirmed its full-year 2010 outlook:
- Full year 2010 total revenue is expected to be between $330 million and $360 million.
- Full year 2010 diluted earnings per share are expected to be between $0.25 and $0.55.
- Full year 2010 Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $185 million and $210 million, with margins between 56% and 58%.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This presentation and other of our reports, filings, and public announcements may contain or incorporate forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. Forward-looking statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. We generally identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar words, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words.
Any forward-looking statements are based upon our historical performance and on our current plans, estimates and expectations. The inclusion of this forward-looking information should not be regarded as a representation by us that the future plans, estimates or expectations will be achieved. Such forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties and assumptions. A number of important factors could cause our actual results or performance to differ materially from those indicated by such forward looking statements, including: the loss, reduction or change in terms of any of our primary contracts; the loss or impairment of our satellites; loss or damage to the content contained in our ImageLibrary; interruption or failure of our ground system and other infrastructure, decrease in demand for our imagery products and services; increased competition that may reduce our market share or cause us to lower our prices; our failure to obtain or maintain required regulatory approvals and licenses; changes in U.S. foreign law or regulation that may limit our ability to distribute our imagery products and services; the costs associated with being a public company; and other important factors, all as described more fully in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any of these forward looking statements.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used in internal operating reports by management and the board of directors to evaluate the performance of our operations and is also used by analysts, investment banks and lenders for the same purpose. Adjusted EBITDA is a measure of our current period operating performance, excluding charges for capital, depreciation related to prior period capital expenditures and items which are considered non-core in nature.
We believe that the elimination of certain non-cash and non-operating items enables a more consistent measurement of period to period performance of our operations, as well as a comparison of our operating performance to companies in our industry. We believe this measure is particularly important in a capital intensive industry such as ours, in which our current period depreciation is not a good indication of our current or future period capital expenditures. The cost to construct and launch a satellite and build the related ground infrastructure may vary greatly from one satellite to another, depending on the satellite’s size, type and capabilities. For example, our QuickBird satellite, which we are currently depreciating, cost significantly less than our WorldView-1 or WorldView-2 satellites. Current depreciation expense is not indicative of the revenue generating potential of the satellites.
Adjusted EBITDA excludes interest income (expense), net, income taxes and loss from early extinguishment of debt because these items are associated with our capitalization and tax structures. Adjusted EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization expense because these non-cash expenses reflect the impact of prior capital expenditure decisions which are not indicative of future capital expenditure requirements. Adjusted EBITDA excludes non-cash stock compensation expense because these are non-cash expenses and loss on derivative instrument because these items are not related to our primary operations.
We use Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with traditional GAAP operating performance measures as part of our overall assessment of our performance and we do not place undue reliance on this measure as our only measure of operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized term under generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, in the United States and may not be defined similarly by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net income, as an indication of financial performance, or as an alternative to cash flow from operations as a measure of liquidity. There are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures, including the difficulty associated with comparing companies that use similar performance measures whose calculations may differ from ours.
