CMGI (CMGI - surged after it broadened its profits for the quarter ended Oct. 31. The Waltham, Mass.-based marketing company earned $10.3 million, or 2 cents a share, compared with $2.1 million, or break-even a share, a year ago. Revenue dipped 6.5% to $283.6 million, a decline that CMGI attributes to expected lower revenue from a single client due to a change in the client's supply chain model.

CMGI Reports Financial Results for Second Quarter of Fiscal 2007
Monday February 26, 4:26 pm ET 
Company Reports Strong Improvement in Operating Results and Net Income


WALTHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CMGI, Inc. (Nasdaq: CMGI - News) today reported financial results for its second quarter of fiscal year 2007, ended January 31, 2007.
Financial Summary

Net revenue increased 1.9% from prior year to $324.8 million
Gross margins improved to 12.5% compared with 9.5% in the prior year period
Operating income improved to $11.3 million or 3.5% of revenue from an operating loss of $1.7 million in the prior year
Non-GAAP operating income more than doubled, to $19.5 million from $8.8 million in the second quarter of the prior year
Net income increased to $35.9 million compared to a net loss of $6.3 million in the same period last year
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at January 31, 2007 increased to $275.0 million from $163.0 million at January 31, 2006
Second Quarter Consolidated Financial Results

CMGI reported net revenue of $324.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2007, compared to net revenue of $318.8 million for the same period one year ago, a $6.0 million or 1.9% increase.

Operating income was $11.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 compared to an operating loss of $1.7 million in the prior period, an improvement of $13.0 million year over year. The operating income improvement was primarily driven by an increase in gross margins from 9.5% to 12.5% year over year and lower restructuring costs. Contributing factors to the gross margin improvement included strong volumes in Asia from certain higher margin programs, improved work mix in the Americas and new business wins and productivity gains in Europe. Compared to the Company's third and fourth fiscal quarters, gross margin percentage is typically strongest in the second quarter due to seasonality-based demand for certain of the Company's clients' products. In addition, the Company recorded $2.9 million of lower restructuring costs as compared to the prior year.

During the quarter, CMGI also continued to invest in its strategic initiatives which are focused on penetrating new target vertical markets including Communications, Storage and Consumer Electronics, expanding service offerings, deploying a new Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) technology platform and implementing a shared services model, which includes consolidating IT and finance infrastructures. These investments totaled approximately $3.1 million during the quarter, of which approximately $2.1 million was recorded as an operating expense in the period, with the remainder capitalized on the balance sheet.

"We have been making meaningful progress across our business and are beginning to see improved results from our efforts," said Joseph C. Lawler, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of CMGI. "Our increase in revenue was achieved despite a $20.9 million decline in revenue related to a previously announced program change for a single client."

Excluding net charges related to depreciation, amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation and restructuring, CMGI reported non-GAAP operating income of $19.5 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 versus non-GAAP operating income of $8.8 million for the same period in fiscal 2006, a $10.7 million or 122% improvement. The increase in non-GAAP operating income primarily reflects the operating income improvements noted above.

For the second quarter, CMGI reported net income of $35.9 million or $0.07 diluted earnings per share, compared to a net loss of $6.3 million or $0.02 diluted loss per share for the same period in the prior fiscal year. Net income primarily reflects the improved operating income performance as well as a gain of $28.7 million from the acquisition by EMC Corporation of Avamar Technologies, a company in which @Ventures held an investment. "Our @Ventures business continues to provide significant liquidity and new investment opportunities," said Lawler.

As of January 31, 2007, CMGI had working capital of approximately $319.4 million compared with $259.7 million at January 31, 2006. Included in working capital as of January 31, 2007 were cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaling $275.0 million compared to $163.0 million at January 31, 2006.

"Looking forward, in our supply chain business we believe that executing on our strategy of pursuing higher margin services in our target vertical markets, introducing new solutions and investing in operational improvements will help us achieve long term growth," added Lawler. "I expect that we will see some changes in our client base and work mix, with work from our target markets supplementing or replacing work from our more established markets of computing and software."

The Company was recently informed that a business unit of Hewlett Packard intends to migrate away from ModusLink Corporation a program which accounts for approximately $100.0 million of annual revenue. The operating income associated with this program is estimated at less than $3.0 million per year. The Company expects volumes associated with this program to decline late in the third quarter and does not expect the loss of this program to have a significant impact on results for this year.

"While this program represents a sizable amount of revenue, its working capital requirements are high and its gross margins and operating margins are well below those of our financial goals," said Lawler. "We believe exiting this program will contribute to the achievement of our long-term financial goals."

Outlook

The Company currently expects revenues of approximately $1.10 billion in fiscal 2007. With respect to gross margin percentage, while the Company does not expect second half gross margin levels to approximate the levels achieved in the second quarter, the Company does expect full year gross margin percentage to show improvement over the prior year.

Conference Call Information

CMGI will hold a conference call to discuss its fiscal 2007 second quarter results at 5:00 PM Eastern Time on February 26, 2007. Investors can listen to the conference call on the Internet at www.cmgi.com/investor. To listen to the live call, go to the Web site at least 15 minutes prior to the start time to download and install the necessary audio software.

Non-GAAP Information

The Company believes that its non-GAAP measure of operating income/(loss) ("non-GAAP operating income/(loss)") provides investors with a useful supplemental measure of the Company's operating performance by excluding the impact of non-cash charges and restructuring activities. Each of the excluded items was excluded because they may be considered to be of a non-operational or non-cash nature. Historically, CMGI has recorded significant impairment and restructuring charges. These charges, as well as charges related to depreciation, amortization of intangible assets and stock-based compensation, have been excluded for the purpose of enhancing the understanding by both management and investors of the underlying baseline operating results and trends of the business, which management uses to evaluate our financial performance for purposes of planning and forecasting future periods. Non-GAAP operating income/(loss) does not have any standardized definition and, therefore, is unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other reporting companies. Non-GAAP operating income/(loss) should not be evaluated in isolation of, or as a substitute for, the Company's financial results prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The Company's usage of non-GAAP operating income/(loss), and the underlying methodology in excluding certain charges, is not necessarily an indication of the results of operations that may be expected in the future, or that the Company will not, in fact, incur such charges in future periods. A table reconciling CMGI's non-GAAP operating income/(loss) to its GAAP operating income/(loss) and its GAAP net income/(loss) is included in the statement of operations information in this release.

This release contains forward-looking statements, which address a variety of subjects including, for example, expected revenues and gross margins to be achieved in fiscal 2007, the further execution of ModusLink's strategic business plan and impact of that plan, the expected impact of strategic initiatives and restructuring actions, our assessment of the expected impact of the loss of the program referenced in this release, our assessment of the supply chain management industry and the opportunities afforded ModusLink in that industry and the prospects for the Company's @Ventures business.

The following important factors and uncertainties, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements: CMGI's success, including its ability to improve its cash position, expand its operations and revenues, lower its costs, improve its gross margins and sustain profitability, depends on its ability to execute on its business strategy and the continued and increased demand for and market acceptance of its products and services; CMGI's management may face strain on managerial and operational resources as they try to oversee the expanded operations; CMGI may not be able to expand its operations in accordance with its business strategy; CMGI's cash balances may not be sufficient to allow CMGI to meet all of its business and investment goals; CMGI may experience difficulties integrating technologies, operations and personnel in accordance with its business strategy; CMGI derives a significant portion of its revenue from a small number of customers and the loss of any of those customers could significantly damage CMGI's financial condition and results of operations; ModusLink frequently sells to its supply chain management clients on a purchase order basis rather than pursuant to contracts with minimum purchase requirements, and therefore its sales are subject to demand variability; risks inherent with conducting international operations; the mergers and acquisitions and IPO markets are inherently unpredictable and liquidity events for companies in the venture capital portfolio may not occur; and increased competition and technological changes in the markets in which CMGI competes.

In conjunction with the investment in Earthanol, Peter Mills, a Managing Director of @Ventures, has joined Earthanol's board of directors.

Larry Folks, Chief Executive Officer of Earthanol, said, "We are very pleased to add Nth Power, @Ventures, and Calvert Funds to our investor team, which includes existing investor, Sail Venture Partners, and are delighted that our vision to convert available waste streams into green renewable fuels can now be realized.

Hoorah Baby !
Has been upgraded to a buy from a hold. Net income went up a whopping 668% in the second quarter of fiscal 2007, translating into an 800% increase in earnings per share. Such stellar numbers have already pushed the stock price up; however, TheStreet.com Ratings feels there is still room to run. CMGI had been rated a hold since November 2005.
