Richard Davies wrote: The UK has a good crop of technology pioneers in cloud computing - for example ElasticHosts, FlexiScale, Flexiant, OnApp - and also some strong government initiatives such as G-Cloud.
We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.
Terremark Worldwide, Inc. (NASDAQ:TMRK), a leading global provider of
managed IT infrastructure services, today reported its results for the
quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2010.
The company delivered record bookings of $45.5 for the quarter ended
March 31, 2010. For fiscal year 2010, Terremark produced total revenues
of $292.3 million and EBITDA, as adjusted, of $81.0 million,
respectively, in line with previously announced guidance.
“With another very strong quarter and fiscal year, Terremark continues
to produce the positive results that reflect the strong demand among
federal and enterprise customers for our suite of industry-leading
solutions across our global footprint and our proven ability to
successfully execute our strategic plan,” said Manuel D. Medina,
Chairman and CEO of Terremark. “Our consecutive quarters of record
bookings, robust pipeline and strategic expansion create a solid base
for fiscal 2011 and a clear path for sustained growth.”
“Our strong performance across all our key financial metrics, and the
positive momentum we have generated in previous quarters, validates the
confidence we have in our ability to deliver strong results,” said Jose
Segrera, Chief Financial Officer of Terremark.
Q4 FY10 Financial Highlights
Total revenues for the quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2010
were $82.5 million, representing increases of 11% compared to the
third quarter of fiscal 2010 and 20% over the previous fiscal year,
respectively. Total revenues for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010
were $292.3 million, representing a 17% increase over the prior fiscal
year.
EBITDA, as adjusted, for the fourth quarter was $26.5 million,
representing a 20% year-over-year increase and a 34% sequential
increase; EBITDA, as adjusted, for fiscal year 2010 was $81.0 million,
representing a 32% increase over the prior fiscal year. EBITDA, as
adjusted, is defined as income (loss) from operations less
depreciation, amortization, integration expenses, certain legal and
professional costs, litigation and employment settlements, share-based
payments, including share-settled liabilities and other non-cash
expenses. EBITDA, as adjusted, should be considered in addition to,
but not in lieu of, income (loss) from operations reported under
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
Income from operations for the fourth quarter was $12.4 million,
representing a 15% year-over-year increase.
Gross profit margins, excluding depreciation and amortization, were
50% for the quarter and 45% for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010.
Cross connects billed to customers increased to 9,154 as of March 31,
2010 from 8,883 the previous quarter and 8,339 a year earlier,
representing increases of 3% and 10%, respectively. The consistent
increase in cross connects billed to customers underscores the
compelling value of Terremark’s network-neutral model.
Utilization of total colocation space utilization was 29.0% as of
March 31, 2010. Utilization of built-out colocation space was 54.4% as
of March 31, 2010.
Q4 FY10 Business Highlights
Terremark increased the annualized cloud computing run rate to $21.9
million during the fourth quarter, a 27% increase from the previous
quarter. The company’s cloud computing solutions continue to gain
traction with Fortune 500 enterprises and federal government agencies
looking to deploy and manage applications faster, while substantially
reducing their total cost of ownership.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2010, Terremark added 56 new
customers, for a total of 1,350 customers at the end of the period.
Terremark had another quarter of record bookings with $45.5 million of
new annual contract value booked in the quarter ended March 31, 2010.
The company had $30.1 million of recurring bookings in the quarter,
also the best in the company’s history.
Terremark recently announced the launch of the third datacenter at its
Network Access Point (NAP) of the Capital Region campus. With more
than 65 percent of the available datacenter space at the campus
contracted, including the recently launched third datacenter, the
company acquired 27 acres of land adjacent to the campus to
accommodate future success-based growth. The $5-million land
acquisition provides Terremark the ability to add at least 250,000
square feet of high-quality datacenter space and close to 100,000
square feet of Class A office space, effectively doubling the size of
the campus. Terremark also unveiled the NAP of the Capital Region’s
72,000-square-foot headquarters building, which includes a 150-seat
auditorium built to the Federal government’s Physical Security
Standards for Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities (SCIF)
and approximately 50,000 square feet of Class A office space that can
be built to SCIF specifications in order to meet customer demands.
Business Outlook
For the first quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company expects revenues to
range from $77 million to $79 million and EBITDA, as adjusted, to
range from $18 million to $20 million.
For the full 2011 fiscal year, the Company raises guidance of revenues
to range from $338 million to $343 million and EBITDA, as adjusted, to
range from $98 million to $101 million.
The foregoing statements regarding targets for the quarter and full year
are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially. These are
the Company’s targets, not predictions of actual performance.

Statements contained in this press release may constitute
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Terremark's actual results may
differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements
due to a number of risks, including uncertainties inherent in government
contracting, its ability to cross-sell across an acquired customer base,
ability to increase revenue yields within facilities, ability to
refinance existing debt, uncertainties and other factors, as discussed
in Terremark's filings with the SEC. These factors include, without
limitation, Terremark's ability to obtain funding for its business
plans, uncertainty in the demand for Terremark's services or products,
Terremark's ability to manage its growth, and the successful integration
of operations of acquired companies. Terremark does not assume any
obligation to update these forward-looking statements.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Terremark continues to provide all information required in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), but it believes
that evaluating its ongoing operating results may be difficult if
limited to reviewing only GAAP financial measures. Accordingly,
Terremark uses non-GAAP financial measures, such as EBITDA, as adjusted.
In presenting these non-GAAP financial measures, Terremark excludes
certain items that it believes are not good indicators of the Company's
current or future operating performance. These items are depreciation,
amortization, integration expenses, certain legal and professional
costs, litigation and employment settlements, share-based payments,
including share-settled liabilities and other non-cash expenses.
Terremark intends to calculate the various non-GAAP financial measures
in future periods on a basis consistent with its calculation of those
measures for the three and twelve months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009
and the three months ended December 31, 2009, presented within this
press release.
