  — Revenues totaled $31.6 million, a 22% increase over Q4 2010.
  — Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation,
      amortization and stock-based compensation) totaled $16.4 million, or 52%
      of North America revenues, a 36% increase over Q4 2010.


International Results

      increase over December 31, 2010.
  — Seated diners totaled 2.2 million, a 45% increase over Q4 2010.

      loss of $0.7 million in Q4 2010.

Q4 2011 Consolidated Financial and Operating Summary

 


  — Installed restaurant base as of December 31, 2011, totaled 25,119, a 25%
      increase over December 31, 2010.
  — Seated diners totaled 26.9 million, a 39% increase over Q4 2010.
  — Total revenues were $37.2 million in Q4 2011, up 21% over Q4 2010
      revenues of $30.8 million.
    — Reservation revenues were $20.3 million in Q4 2011, up 32% over Q4
        2010 revenues of $15.4 million.  Reservation revenues primarily
        increased as a result of the increase in seated diners.
    — Subscription revenues were $13.3 million in Q4 2011, up 14% over Q4
        2010 revenues of $11.6 million.  Subscription revenues increased as
        a result of the increase in installed restaurants using our
        Electronic Reservation Book solution.
    — Other revenues were $3.6 million in Q4 2011, down 5% over Q4 2010
        revenues of $3.8 million.  The decrease is primarily the result of a
        decrease in revenue from third-party restaurant coupon sales,
        partially offset by an increase in advertising revenues.

  — Total operating expenses were $26.4 million in Q4 2011, up 4% over Q4
      2010 operating expenses of $25.4 million.  The increase was primarily
      driven by a 13% increase in headcount and an increase in depreciation
      and amortization.

 

  — Total operating income was $10.8 million in Q4 2011 compared to $5.4
      million in Q4 2010.  Non-GAAP consolidated operating income, excluding
      stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangibles
      and acquisition-related expenses was $13.7 million in Q4 2011 compared
      to $9.7 million in Q4 2010.

 

  — The Q4 2011 GAAP income tax expense was $3.8 million, or a 35% tax rate.

 

  — Consolidated net income was $7.0 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, in
      Q4 2011 compared to $5.1 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, in Q4
      2010.  Non-GAAP consolidated net income, which excludes tax-affected
      stock-based compensation expense, tax-affected amortization of acquired
      intangibles and tax-affected acquisition-related expenses, was $8.9
      million, or $0.37 per diluted share, in Q4 2011 compared to $8.0
      million, or $0.33 per diluted share, in Q4 2010.

 

  — During Q4 2011 the Company repurchased 1,089,300 shares of common stock
      at an average price of $37.91 per share.

 

  — As of December 31, 2011, OpenTable had cash and cash equivalents and
      short-term investments of $49.9 million.

 


2011 Consolidated Financial and Operating Summary

 


  — Total revenues were $139.5 million in 2011, up 41% over 2010 revenues of
      $99.0 million.

 

  — Operating income totaled $32.6 million in 2011, or 23% of consolidated
      revenues, an 82% increase over 2010.  Non-GAAP consolidated operating
      income, excluding stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related
      expense and amortization of acquired intangibles, was $47.3 million in
      2011, or 34% of consolidated revenues, a 66% increase over 2010.

 

  — Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA totaled $55.4 million in 2011, or 40% of
      consolidated revenues, a 59% increase over 2010.

 


“The fourth quarter highlights continued growth in our core operating and financial metrics,” said Duncan Robertson, CFO of OpenTable.  “The business continues to deliver solid operating margins and cash flows which enabled us to complete the $50 million share repurchase in early January 2012.”

 

Quarterly Conference Call

 

A conference call will be webcast live today at 2 p.m. PT/5 p.m. ET and will be available through February 28, 2012, at http://investors.opentable.com/events.cfm.  This call may contain forward-looking statements and other material information regarding the Company’s financial and operating results.

 

About Non-GAAP Financial Information

 

The accompanying press release dated February 7, 2012, contains certain non-GAAP financial measures.  Tables are provided in the press release that reconcile the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).  These non-GAAP financial measures include non-GAAP consolidated net income and the related per diluted share amounts, non-GAAP consolidated operating income and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA.  Non-GAAP financial measure adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation and acquisition-related expenses.  Within the Company’s reconciliation to non-GAAP diluted net income per share, the impact of undistributed earnings allocated to participating securities has been excluded.

 

 

To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information about the Company’s core operating results and thus are appropriate to enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s past financial performance and its prospects for the future. Management believes it is useful to exclude stock-based compensation, acquisition-related expenses and amortization of acquired intangibles because they do not reflect the underlying performance of the Company’s business operations. These adjustments to the Company’s GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of the Company’s underlying operational results and trends and performance.  Management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate the Company’s financial results.  The presentation of non-GAAP measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for or superior to financial results determined in accordance with GAAP.

 

Background Information

 

The Company reports consolidated operations in U.S. dollars and operates in two geographic segments: North America and International. The North America segment is comprised of all operations in the United States, Canada and Mexico, and the International segment is comprised of all non-North America operations, which includes operations in Europe and Asia. The Company generates substantially all of its revenues from its restaurant customers. The Company’s revenues primarily include monthly subscription fees, a fee for each restaurant guest seated through online reservations, and other revenue, including installation fees for the Electronic Reservation Book (including training).
