OPNT Opiant Pharmaceuticals Inc

OPNET Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq:OPNT), a leading provider of solutions for application and network performance management, today announced that revenue for the first fiscal quarter, ended June 30, 2011, was $40.2 million, compared to $31.1 million for the same quarter in the prior fiscal year. Diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 were $0.18, compared to $0.06 for the same quarter in the prior fiscal year. The Company also announced today a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share, which represents one quarter of the Company's fiscal 2012 annual dividend target of $0.48, payable on September 29, 2011 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on September 15, 2011. During fiscal 2011, the Company paid aggregate quarterly dividends of $0.40 per share and a one-time special dividend of $0.75 per share.

Marc A. Cohen, OPNET's Chairman and CEO, stated, "We are very pleased to report strong quarterly results for fiscal Q1. Our performance was driven by both sequential and year over year increases in revenue from corporate enterprise and United States government customers; although, total revenue was down sequentially due to the seasonal buying patterns of international customers. Our strong quarterly performance allowed us to achieve record operating income of $6.3 million."

Mr. Cohen continued, "APM product sales continued to drive our performance, and accounted for 58% of our total product bookings during the quarter. APM product sales increased 24% over the same quarter last year. We believe that the growth in APM is being driven by both superior analytics, and our end-to-end solutions that span networks, applications, and systems. We further believe that these competitive advantages can generate sustained growth in product revenue and profitability over the long term."

The Company's first quarter fiscal 2012 financial results are presented below. The non-GAAP results exclude the income statement effects of stock-based compensation and acquisition-related amortization of intangible assets.  A reconciliation of GAAP results to non-GAAP results has been provided in the financial statement table following the text of the press release. For further information, please refer to the section of the press release titled "Use of Non-GAAP Measures."

Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2012 Financial Outlook

OPNET currently expects fiscal 2012 second quarter GAAP revenue to be between $40.0 million and $44.0 million, and GAAP diluted net income per common share to be between $0.16 and $0.24 and non-GAAP diluted net income per common share to be between $0.19 and $0.27. The non-GAAP diluted net income per common share expectation excludes approximately $654,000 of expense associated with stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and the related impact of these adjustments on the provision for income taxes. These estimates represent management's current expectations about the Company's future financial performance, based on information available at this time.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

OPNET uses a variety of financial measures that are not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, as supplemental measures to GAAP to evaluate its operational performance. These financial measures, which include non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, exclude the impact of certain items and, therefore, have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP. A detailed explanation of each of the adjustments to such financial measures is described below. A reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to its most comparable GAAP financial measure is also included below.

Management uses non-GAAP financial measures (a) to evaluate OPNET's historical and prospective financial performance as well as its performance relative to its competitors, and (b) to measure operational profitability and the accuracy of forecasting. In addition, many financial analysts who follow OPNET focus on and publish both historical results and future projections based on non-GAAP financial measures. OPNET believes that it is in the best interest of its investors to provide this information to analysts so that they accurately report the non-GAAP financial information. Moreover, investors have historically requested these non-GAAP financial measures as a means of providing consistent and comparable information with past reports of financial results.

While management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors, there are limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, are not reported by all of OPNET's competitors and may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of OPNET's competitors due to potential differences in the exact method of calculation. OPNET compensates for these limitations by using these non-GAAP financial measures only as supplements to GAAP financial measures and by providing the reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP financial measures.

The adjustments we use to derive these non-GAAP financial measures, and the basis for such adjustments, are outlined below:

Amortization of intangibles and its related tax impact. OPNET incurs amortization of intangibles related to various acquisitions it has made in recent years. This amortization is included in the following line items of its GAAP presentation:

• cost of revenue -- amortization of acquired technology and customer relationships
• operating expenses -- research and development

Management excludes these expenses and their related tax impact for the purpose of calculating non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share when it evaluates the continuing operational performance of OPNET because these costs are fixed at the time of an acquisition, are then amortized over a period of three to five years after the acquisition and generally cannot be changed or influenced by management after the acquisition. Accordingly, management does not consider these expenses for purposes of evaluating the performance of OPNET during the applicable time period after a given acquisition, and it excludes such expenses when evaluating OPNET's financial performance.

Stock-based compensation expense and its related tax impact. OPNET incurs expense related to stock-based compensation, which is included in the following line items of its GAAP presentation:

• cost of revenue -- product updates, technical support and services
• cost of revenue -- professional services
• operating expenses --research and development
• operating expenses -- sales and marketing
• operating expenses – general and administrative

Although stock-based compensation is an expense of OPNET and is viewed as a form of compensation, management excludes these expenses for the purpose of calculating non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share when it evaluates the continuing operational performance of OPNET. Specifically, OPNET excludes stock-based compensation during its quarterly and annual assessments of OPNET's and management's performance. In evaluating the performance of senior management, stock-based compensation is excluded from expenditure and profitability results.

Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.  Non-GAAP diluted net income per common share reflects the elimination of amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense and the related tax impacts, all as discussed above. In addition, in cases in which the non-GAAP net income changes from negative to positive when compared to the GAAP net income, or vice versa, the non-GAAP per-share calculation also gives effect to an adjustment to the number of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding reflecting the application of the treasury method and the fact that shares previously considered anti-dilutive would now be considered dilutive, or vice versa.
