MELVILLE, N.Y.--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--FalconStor Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: FALC), the market leader in disk-based data protection solutions, today announced financial results for its fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2010.
"We are excited about our new sales team in North America and about delivering on our vision of service-oriented data protection in 2011. FalconStor is on course for delivering the next generation of data protection solutions."
Total revenues for the fourth quarter of 2010 were $26.5 million, an increase of 18% compared with $22.4 million in the same period a year ago. GAAP income from operations for the fourth quarter of 2010 was $0.8 million, compared with a loss from operations of $3.3 million for the same period a year ago. GAAP net loss for the quarter was $0.1 million with breakeven earnings per share compared with a net loss of $1.5 million or $0.03 per share for the same period a year ago.
Non-GAAP income from operations was $2.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2010, compared with a loss from operations of $1.2 million for the same period a year ago. Non-GAAP net income was $2.2 million or $0.05 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2010, compared with a net loss of $0.8 million or $0.02 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2009. Non-GAAP results exclude the effects of stock-based compensation net of the related income taxes.
For the year ended December 31, 2010, revenues declined 7% to $82.8 million, compared with $89.5 million for the same period a year ago. GAAP loss from operations for 2010 was $17.6 million compared with a loss of $6.3 million in 2009. GAAP net loss was $35.4 million, or $0.78 per share for 2010 compared with a net loss of $3.1 million, or $0.07 per share in 2009. In 2010, the Company concluded that its domestic deferred tax assets could not be realized on a more-likely-than-not basis, therefore a valuation allowance of $16.3 million was required to be recorded on these previously recognized deferred tax assets. This valuation allowance had no cash impact and was recorded within the tax provision during the third quarter of 2010, and is included within the full year 2010 tax provision.
Non-GAAP loss from operations in 2010 was $8.9 million compared with income from operations of $2.5 million in 2009. Non-GAAP results exclude the effects of stock-based compensation expense net of the related income taxes.
The Company closed the year with $37.3 million in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities. Cash flow from operations for the fourth quarter of 2010 was $4.2 million and for the full year 2010 cash flow from operations was ($1.7) million. Deferred revenue at December 31, 2010 was $23.5 million, an increase of 6% compared with the same period a year ago.
aWe achieved a solid fourth quarter, which was highlighted by record quarterly revenues and significant enterprise wins with our partner Hitachi Data Systems. We are pleased to see the results of our increased focus on partners and channel operations,a said Jim McNiel, president and CEO of FalconStor Software. aWe are excited about our new sales team in North America and about delivering on our vision of service-oriented data protection in 2011. FalconStor is on course for delivering the next generation of data protection solutions.a

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The Companya™s management refers to these non-GAAP financial measures in making operating decisions because they provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Companya™s operating performance. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate managementa™s internal comparisons to the Companya™s historical operating results and comparisons to competitorsa™ operating results. We include these non-GAAP financial measures (which should be viewed as a supplement to, and not a substitute for, their comparable GAAP measures) in this press release because we believe they are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency into the supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. The non-GAAP financial measures exclude noncash stock-based compensation charges for all periods presented. The sum of quarterly non-GAAP net income (loss) and per share amounts do not equal the annual non-GAAP amounts reported due to an adjustment to the non-GAAP tax provision amount recorded in the third quarter of 2010. For a reconciliation of our GAAP and non-GAAP financial results, please refer to our Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures, which is included in this press release.
