MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 28, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SPS Commerce (Nasdaq:SPSC), a leading provider of on-demand supply chain management solutions, today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2010.

Revenue was $11.5 million in the third quarter of 2010, compared to $9.6 million in the third quarter of 2009, reflecting 19% growth in revenue from the third quarter 2009. Recurring revenue grew 23% from the third quarter of 2009.

Net income in the third quarter of 2010 was $886,000 or $0.07 per diluted share, compared to net income of $346,000, or $0.04 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2009.

"We saw our relationships grow with partners on all sides of the supply chain, and we continue to deliver a solid value proposition to the SMB market while driving higher revenue streams across our products. In addition, we continue to execute and focus on our unique viral platform that we believe gives us a competitive advantage in the supply chain world."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement its financial statements, SPS Commerce also provides investors with Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income per share, which are non-GAAP financial measures. SPS Commerce believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations. SPS Commerce's management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare the company's performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses and planning purposes. It uses Adjusted EBITDA for purposes of determining executive and senior management incentive compensation. These measures are also presented to the company's board of directors.

EBITDA consists of net income plus depreciation and amortization, interest expense, interest income and income tax (benefit) expense. Adjusted EBITDA consists of EBITDA plus non-cash, share-based compensation expense. SPS Commerce uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of operating performance because it assists the company in comparing performance on a consistent basis, as it removes from operating results the impact of the company's capital structure. SPS Commerce believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to an investor in evaluating the company's operating performance because it is widely used to measure a company's operating performance without regard to items such as depreciation and amortization, which can vary depending upon accounting methods and the book value of assets, and to present a meaningful measure of corporate performance exclusive of the company's capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired.

Non-GAAP net income per share consists of net income plus non-cash, share-based compensation expense and amortization expense related to intangible assets divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. SPS Commerce believes non-GAAP net income per share is useful to an investor because it is widely used to measure a company's operating performance.

These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the company's financial statements and are subject to inherent limitations. SPS Commerce urges investors to review the reconciliation of its non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures that are includes in this press release. The following tables provide reconciliations of net income to Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income per share (in thousands, except per share amounts):
