CONWAY, AR — (Marketwired) — 10/22/15 — Inuvo, Inc. (NYSE MKT: INUV), an advertising technology and digital publishing company, today announced revenues of $19.3 million in the third quarter of 2015 compared to $13.0 million in the same quarter last year, a 48% increase. Net income in the third quarter of 2015 was $651,000 or $0.03 per diluted share compared to $403,000 or $0.02 per diluted share in the same quarter of 2014. For the first nine months of 2015, revenue was $49.4 million, a 45% increase over the first nine months of last year. Net income for the first nine months of 2015 was $1,723,000 or $0.07 per diluted share compared to $1,460,000 or $0.06 per diluted share in the same period last year.

“Our trailing twelve months financial performance year-over-year, with revenue up 43%, net income up 96% and free cash flow nearly doubling is and will continue to provide the opportunity to make investments in new technologies, explore innovative marketing strategies, hire exceptional people and where appropriate, try out new ideas,” stated Rich Howe, Chairman and CEO of Inuvo. “Our profits provide the means for our continued growth while also, as was the case in this last quarter, the flexibility to pay off our debt in its entirety.”

Revenue was up 48% to $19.3 million from $13.0 million in 2014.

Partner revenue was up 2% to $7.2 million from $7.1 million.

Owned & Operated revenue was up 102% to $12.0 million from $5.9 million.

Net income was up 62% to $651,000 or $0.03 per diluted share from 2014.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, was up 14.7% to $1.3 million from $1.2 million in 2014.

Free Cash Flow, a non-GAAP measure was up 86% to $1.7 million from $900 thousand in 2014.

All bank debt has been repaid with a balance of zero at September 30, 2015 compared to $3.6 million at December 31, 2014.

Revenue was up 45% to $49.4 million from $34.1 million in 2014.

Owned & Operated revenue was up 58% to $25.3 million from $16.0 million in 2014.

Free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure more than doubled to $4.1 million compared to 2014.

The Inuvo business is managed along two segments, the Partner Network and the Owned and Operated Network. The Partner Network facilitates transactions between advertisers and our partners– websites and applications. The Owned and Operated Network designs, builds and markets mobile-ready consumer websites and applications mainly under the ALOT brand. The segments share the utilization of the company–s core ad delivery software as a service (SaaS) technologies.

Net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2015, were $19.3 million as compared to $13.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014. Revenue in our Partner Network was $7.2 million in the third quarter of 2015 compared to $7.1 million in the same quarter last year and compared to $9.3 million in the second quarter 2015. As expected and as reported last quarter, the high level of automotive advertising we experienced in the second quarter 2015 did not materialize in the third quarter 2015. Revenue in our Owned and Operated Network was $12.0 million in the third quarter of 2015 compared to $5.9 million in the same quarter last year and is the result of expansion across the sites both existing and new, along with the acquisition of a Partner, whose revenue of approximately $1 million per quarter was formerly counted in the Partner Network. Operating expenses increased from $6.7 million in the third quarter of 2014 to $12.7 million in the same quarter this year, due primarily to higher marketing expense which increased to $10.2 million in the quarter that ended September 30, 2015 compared to $4.3 million in the same quarter last year associated with the expansion and acquisition of sites.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2015, Net Income was $651,000 or $0.03 per diluted share compared to $403,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2014.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2015, Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure was $1.3 million compared to $1.2 million in the third quarter of 2014.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $3.9 million at September 30, 2015. All bank debt was repaid and reduced to zero at September 30, 2015 from $3.6 million at December 31, 2014.

We anticipate 2015 revenue to be between $66 million and $68.5 million, which represents an increase of 33% to 38% over 2014.

This press release contains certain forward-looking statements that are based upon current expectations and involve certain risks and uncertainties within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words or expressions such as “anticipate,” “plan,” “will,” “intend,” “believe” or “expect–” or variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements made with respect to expectations with respect to our lack of profitable operating history, changes in our business, potential need for additional capital, fluctuations in demand; changes to economic growth in the U.S. economy; and government policies and regulations, including, but not limited to those affecting the Internet, all as set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and our most recent Form 10-Q. All forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, many of which are generally outside the control of Inuvo and are difficult to predict. Inuvo undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

In addition to disclosing financial results in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), our earnings release contains the non-GAAP financial measure “Adjusted EBITDA” and “Free Cash Flow.”

Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow are not measures of performance defined in accordance with GAAP. However, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow are useful to investors in evaluating the Company–s performance because Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow are commonly used financial analysis tool for measuring and comparing companies in the Company–s industry in areas of operating performance.

Management believes that the disclosure of Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow offers an additional view of the Company–s operations that, when coupled with the GAAP results and the reconciliation to GAAP net income, provides a more complete understanding of the Company–s results of operations and the factors and trends affecting the Company–s business.

Reconciliation of Net Income from Continuing Operations before Taxes to Adjusted EBITDA

We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our performance. We defined Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) from continuing operations before taxes plus (i) interest expense, net, (ii) depreciation, (iii) amortization, (iv) stock-based compensation, and (v) accrued severance and other non-recurring, noncash expense. These further adjustments are itemized above. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same or similar to some of the adjustments in the presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

Reconciliation of Net Income to Free Cash Flow

We present Free Cash Flow as a supplemental measure of our performance. We defined Free Cash Flow as GAAP net income plus (i) adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities and (ii) purchases of equipment and capitalized development costs. These further adjustments are itemized above. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Free Cash Flow, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same or similar to some of the adjustments in the presentation. Our presentation of Free Cash Flow should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
