Extreme Networks Reports Q1 Revenue and EPS Growth

Extreme Networks Reports Q1 Revenue and EPS GrowthSANTA CLARA, Calif.; Oct. 24, 2007 – Extreme Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXTR) today announced financial results for its fiscal first quarter ended September 30, 2007. For the quarter, net revenue increased 6 percent to $89.0 million, from $83.8 million in the fiscal first quarter of 2007.

Non-GAAP net income for the fiscal first quarter of 2008, excluding $1.0 million in stock-based compensation charges, was $4.7 million or $0.04 EPS per diluted share. That compares to a year-ago non-GAAP net loss of $1.5 million or a loss of $0.01 per diluted share, which excludes $1.9 million in stock-based compensation charges and a $1.5 million restructuring charge. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures is included in the accompanying financial tables.


"We are pleased to see a continuation of our turnaround this quarter, with substantial improvement to operating margins, and with revenue up both sequentially and year-over-year to a level we have not seen since December 2005," said Mark Canepa, president and CEO of Extreme Networks. "We continue to demonstrate consistent measured progress. Our results reflect solid demand for our products."


Cash, short-term investments, and marketable securities were $224.7 million as of September 30, 2007, compared to $215.9 million as of July 1, 2007, reflecting positive cash flow from operations.


Conference Call
Extreme Networks will host a conference call to discuss these results today at 5:30 p.m. Eastern Time (2:30 p.m. Pacific Time). A live webcast and replay of the call will be available at http://www.extremenetworks.com/about-extreme/investor-relations.aspx. Financial information to be discussed during the conference call is posted on the Investor Relations section of the Company's website (www.extremenetworks.com).


Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Extreme Networks provides all financial information required in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). To supplement its consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company has provided a non-GAAP reconciliation of its Consolidated Statement of Operations for the fiscal quarters ended September 30, 2007 and October 1, 2006, which are adjusted to exclude share-based compensation expense and costs associated with the restructuring of the Company's Japan operations. These non-GAAP measures are not computed in accordance with GAAP and may differ from the methods used by other companies. These non-GAAP measures are not meant as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures. These measures should only be used to evaluate the Company's results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures for comparable financial information and understanding of the Company's ongoing performance as a business. Extreme Networks uses both GAAP and non-GAAP measures to evaluate and manage its operations.
