EXTREME NETWORKS HITS REVENUE TARGET: BEATS EPS

North America Product Revenue Increases 30% Sequentially from Q2

SANTA CLARA, Calif.; April 26, 2010 – Extreme Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXTR) today announced financial results for its 2010 fiscal third quarter ended March 28, 2010. For the quarter, net revenue was $78.2 million, which was in line with Company guidance, and compares to revenue of $79.4 million in the previous quarter and $77.2 million in the third quarter of last year.

“Third quarter revenue reflected solid performance in North America, where product revenue increased 30% from the second quarter, reversing a historic pattern of sequential revenue declines as we executed to our target for the quarter,” said Bob L. Corey, CFO and acting President & CEO of Extreme Networks. “We also posted positive net income and grew revenue-per-employee to the highest level since the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008.

“In addition, during the quarter we announced and began shipping the Summit X480 family of products for the data center, an additional set of modules for the BlackDiamond 8900 family, and a new release of the ExtremeXOS modular operating system. Also, our Direct Attach data center network solution and architecture was recently selected as a finalist for Best of Interop Awards, occurring at Interop in Las Vegas 2010. With our expanded portfolio of products, we expect to grow product revenue by an additional 8%-11% sequentially in our fourth quarter.”

Third quarter non-GAAP operating income was $4.7 million or 6.0 percent of net revenue, compared to $4.3 million or 5.4 percent of net revenue in the previous quarter, and $500,000 or 0.6 percent of net revenue in the third quarter of last year. Additionally, non-GAAP net income was $5.5 million or $0.06 per diluted share, compared to $4.8 million or $0.05 per diluted share in the previous quarter, and $1.2 million or $0.01 per diluted share in the third quarter of last year. Non-GAAP financial results exclude the impact of stock-based compensation and restructuring charges. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures is included in the accompanying financial tables.


Operating income on a GAAP basis for the third quarter was $2.9 million, compared to an operating loss of $1.9 million in the previous quarter and an operating loss of $2.9 million for the third quarter of last year. Net income on a GAAP basis for the third quarter was $3.7 million or $0.04 per diluted share, which included a restructuring charge of $0.4 million and a charge of approximately $1.4 million related to stock based compensation. That compares to a net loss of $1.4 million or $0.02 per diluted share in the previous quarter, and a net loss of $2.2 million or $0.02 per diluted share in the third quarter of last year.

For the third quarter, net revenue in North America was $32.6 million, revenue in EMEA was $31.0 million, and revenue in APAC was $14.6 million. That compares to revenue of $27.5 million in North America, $37.8 million in EMEA, and $14.1 million in APAC in the previous quarter.

2010 Fiscal Fourth Quarter non-GAAP Financial Guidance

For its 2010 fiscal fourth quarter ending June 27, 2010, the Company currently expects net revenue to be in a range of $82-$85 million; gross margin of 57%-59%; non-GAAP operating income of $5.0-$7.0 million; and non-GAAP net income of $0.05-$0.07 per diluted share.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Extreme Networks provides all financial information required in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, we are also providing with this press release non-GAAP net income/(loss), non-GAAP operating income/(loss) and non-GAAP earnings/(loss) per diluted share. In preparing our non-GAAP information, we have excluded, where applicable, the impact of restructuring charges and share-based compensation. We believe that excluding these charges provides both management and investors with additional insight into our current operations, the trends affecting the Company and the Company’s marketplace performance. In particular, management finds it useful to exclude these charges in order to more readily correlate the Company’s operating activities with the Company’s ability to generate cash from operations. Accordingly, management uses these non-GAAP measures, along with the comparable GAAP information, in evaluating our historical performance and in planning our future business


activities. Please note that our non-GAAP measures may be different than those used by other companies. The additional non-GAAP financial information we present should be considered in conjunction with, and not as a substitute for, our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. We have provided a non-GAAP reconciliation of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the periods presented in this release, which are adjusted to exclude restructuring charges and share-based compensation expense for these periods. 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.
