"Third quarter revenue and operating results were in line with
our expectations. As expected, on Oct.
31, the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA)
notified us that they have decided to cancel our Service Level
Agreement (SLA) part of the EnhancedView contract. Effective
Dec. 1, 2012, we will no longer be
providing imagery to the NGA," said Matt O'Connell, GeoEye's chief
executive officer and president.
"We will continue to provide other services to the NGA under
EnhancedView, including the Web delivery platform, secure
operations and value-added production services," O'Connell
continued. "We continue to move forward with our combination with
DigitalGlobe. We expect to close the transaction late this year or
in the first quarter of 2013."
THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
Total revenues were $87.1 million
for the third quarter of 2012, a $1.3
million increase from the third quarter of 2011. Net income
available to common stockholders for the third quarter of 2012 was
$7.6 million, or $0.33 per fully diluted share, compared to
$11.7 million, or $0.51 per fully diluted share, for the third
quarter of 2011. When adjusted for transaction costs related to the
combination with DigitalGlobe, net income available to common
stockholders for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2012, was $12.0
million, or $0.53 per fully
diluted share.
Operating profit was $15.2 million
for the third quarter of 2012, which included $8.3 million of transaction-related costs.
Operating margin was 17.4 percent for the third quarter of 2012,
compared to 27.7 percent in the third quarter of 2011. Adjusted
EBITDA (a non-GAAP measurement defined as net income before
interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, non-cash recognition
of stock compensation expense and other items including transaction
related costs) was $43.4 million for
the third quarter of 2012, compared to $43.7
million in the same period in 2011.
The company ended the third quarter of 2012 with unrestricted
cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $229.4 million; total assets of approximately
$1.5 billion; stockholders' equity of
$550.8 million and long-term debt of
$513.4 million.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure
that represents net income before depreciation and amortization
expenses, net interest income or expense, provision for income
taxes, non-cash stock-based compensation expense and other items
including transaction related costs. We believe that Adjusted
EBITDA provides useful information to investors because it is an
indicator of the strength and performance of our ongoing
operations. However, Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized term
under financial performance under GAAP, and our calculation of
Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to the calculation of
similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted Net Income Available to Common
Stockholders is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents net
income available to common stockholders before other items
including transaction related costs, net of tax. Adjusted
Diluted EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents fully
diluted earnings per share before other items, net of tax. We
believe that Adjusted Net Income Available to Common Stockholders
and Adjusted Diluted EPS provide useful information to investors
because they allow investors to evaluate our performance for
different periods on a more comparable basis by excluding items
that are not related to the ongoing operations of our
business. However, Adjusted Net Income Available to Common
Stockholders and Adjusted Diluted EPS are not recognized terms
under financial performance under GAAP, and our calculation of
Adjusted Net Income Available to Common Stockholders and Adjusted
Diluted EPS may not be comparable to the calculation of similarly
titled measures of other companies.

Without limitation, the words "anticipates," "believes,"

expenditures and statements expressing general optimism about
future operating results, are forward-looking statements.
Similarly, statements that describe our business strategy, outlook,
objectives, plans, intentions or goals also are forward-looking
statements. All such forward-looking statements and those presented
elsewhere by our management from time to time are subject to
certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those in forward-looking statements. These
risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those

10-K for the year ended December 31,
2011, which we filed with the Securities and Exchange
