FOSTER CITY, Calif., Feb 13, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Equinix, Inc. (Nasdaq:EQIX), the leading provider of
network-neutral data centers and Internet exchange services, today
reported quarterly and year-end results for the period ended December
31, 2007.
Revenues were $138.7 million for the fourth quarter, a 34%
increase over the previous quarter, and $419.4 million for the
year-ended December 31, 2007, a 46% increase over 2006 revenues.
Recurring revenues, consisting primarily of colocation,
interconnection and managed services, were $131.6 million for the
fourth quarter, a 33% increase over the previous quarter, and $399.6
million for the year-ended December 31, 2007, a 46% increase over
2006. Non-recurring revenues were $7.1 million in the quarter and
$19.8 million for the year-ended December 31, 2007.
Cost of revenues were $92.5 million for the fourth quarter and
$263.7 million for the year-ended December 31, 2007, a 40% increase
over cost of revenues for 2006. Cost of revenues, excluding
depreciation, amortization, accretion and stock-based compensation of
$33.0 million for the fourth quarter and $98.3 million for the year,
were $59.5 million for the fourth quarter, a 48% increase over the
previous quarter, and $165.4 million for the year-ended 2007, a 48%
increase over 2006. Cash gross margins, defined as gross profit less
depreciation, amortization, accretion and stock-based compensation,
divided by revenues, for the quarter were 57%, down from 61% the
previous quarter and 63% the same quarter last year. The reduction in
cash gross margins reflects the first full quarter's results from the
company's operations in Europe. Cash gross margins were 61% for the
full year of 2007, the same as in the prior year.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $46.8 million
for the fourth quarter and $146.5 million for the year-ended December
31, 2007. Selling, general and administrative expenses, excluding
depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation of $14.6
million for the fourth quarter and $47.9 million for the year, were
$32.2 million for the fourth quarter, a 40% increase over the previous
quarter, and $98.6 million for 2007, a 34% increase over 2006.
Net loss for the fourth quarter was $6.1 million, including
stock-based compensation expense of $11.7 million. This represents a
basic and diluted net loss per share of $0.17 based on a weighted
average share count of 36.0 million. Net loss for the year-ended
December 31, 2007 was $5.2 million, including stock-based compensation
expense of $42.7 million, or a basic and diluted net loss per share of
$0.16 based on a weighted average share count of 32.1 million.
EBITDA, defined as income or loss from operations before
depreciation, amortization, accretion, stock-based compensation
expense, restructuring charges and any gains or losses from asset
sales, for the fourth quarter was $47.1 million, an increase of 16%
from the previous quarter, and $155.4 million for the year-ended 2007,
up 52% from 2006.
"Equinix delivered exceptional results in 2007, creating a strong
platform for growth in 2008," said Steve Smith, CEO of
Equinix. "Although we continue to closely monitor our leading
indicators, we continue to see no let up in demand. Strong day-to-day
execution, a fully funded expansion plan, and a continued focus on
customer requirements will accelerate our market leadership in 2008."
Capital expenditures in the fourth quarter were $121.0 million, of
which $17.9 million was attributed to ongoing capital expenditures and
$103.1 million was attributed to expansion capital expenditures.
Capital expenditures for the year-ended December 31, 2007, excluding
purchases of real estate and the IXEurope acquisition, were $416.8
million, of which $43.6 million was attributed to ongoing capital
expenditures and $373.2 million was attributed to expansion capital
expenditures. In addition, the Company invested $120.5 million to
acquire properties in the Los Angeles and Silicon Valley markets in
2007.
The Company generated cash from operating activities of $14.0
million for the fourth quarter as compared to $48.7 million in the
previous quarter, as the Company settled outstanding obligations
related to the IXEurope acquisition. Cash generated from operating
activities for the year-ended December 31, 2007 was $121.0 million as
compared to $75.9 million in the previous year. Cash used in investing
activities was $103.4 million in the fourth quarter as compared to
$718.2 million in the previous quarter. Cash used in investing
activities for the year was $1.0 billion as compared to $155.0 million
in the previous year.
As of December 31, 2007, the Company's cash, cash equivalents and
investments were $383.9 million, as compared to $156.5 million as of
December 31, 2006.

unanticipated costs or difficulties relating to the integration
of companies we have or will acquire into Equinix; a failure to
receive significant revenue from customers in recently built out or

contemplated from time to time; competition from existing and new
competitors; the ability to generate sufficient cash flow or otherwise

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Equinix continues to provide all information required in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), but
it believes that evaluating its ongoing operating results may be
difficult if limited to reviewing only GAAP financial measures.
Accordingly, Equinix uses non-GAAP financial measures, such as
non-GAAP revenues, EBITDA, cash cost of revenues, cash gross margins,
cash operating expenses (also known as cash selling, general and
administrative expenses or cash SG&A), non-GAAP net income (loss),
free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow to evaluate its operations.
In presenting these non-GAAP financial measures, Equinix excludes
certain non-cash or non-recurring items that it believes are not good
indicators of the Company's current or future operating performance.
These non-cash or non-recurring items are a non-recurring revenue
adjustment with respect to 2006 results, depreciation, amortization,
accretion, stock-based compensation, restructuring charges and, with
respect to 2006 results, the gain on Honolulu IBX sale, and with
respect to 2007 results, the loss from conversion and extinguishment
of debt and gain on EMS sale. Recent legislative and regulatory
changes encourage use of and emphasis on GAAP financial metrics and
require companies to explain why non-GAAP financial metrics are
relevant to management and investors. Equinix excludes these non-cash
or non-recurring items in order for Equinix's lenders, investors, and
industry analysts who review and report on the Company, to better
evaluate the Company's operating performance and cash spending levels
relative to its industry sector and competitor base.
Equinix excludes depreciation expense as these charges primarily
relate to the initial construction costs of our IBX centers and do not
reflect our current or future cash spending levels to support our
business. Our IBX centers are long-lived assets, and have an economic
life greater than ten years. The construction costs of our IBX centers
do not recur and future capital expenditures remain minor relative to
our initial investment. This is a trend we expect to continue. In
addition, depreciation is also based on the estimated useful lives of
our IBX centers. These estimates could vary from actual performance of
the asset, are based on historic costs incurred to build out our IBX
centers, and are not indicative of current or expected future capital
expenditures. Therefore, Equinix excludes depreciation from its
operating results when evaluating its operations.
In addition, in presenting the non-GAAP financial measures,
Equinix excludes amortization expense related to certain intangible
assets, as it represents a cost that may not recur and is not a good
indicator of the Company's current or future operating performance.
Equinix excludes accretion expense, both as it relates to its asset
retirement obligations as well as its accrued restructuring charge
liabilities, as these expenses represent costs, which Equinix believes
are not meaningful in evaluating the Company's current operations.
Equinix excludes non-cash stock-based compensation expense as it
represents expense attributed to stock awards that have no current or
future cash obligations. As such, we, and our investors and analysts,
exclude this stock-based compensation expense when assessing the cash
generating performance of our operations. Equinix excludes
restructuring charges from its non-GAAP financial measures. The
restructuring charges relate to the Company's decision to exit leases
for excess space adjacent to several of our IBX centers, which we do
not intend to build out now or in the future. With respect to its 2006
results, Equinix reports non-GAAP revenues and excludes the gain on
Honolulu IBX sale. Non-GAAP revenues exclude a revenue adjustment
recorded in the fourth quarter of 2006 in connection with our adoption
of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, which is a one-time adjustment
and will not recur. The gain on Honolulu IBX sale represents a unique
transaction for the Company and future sales of IBX centers are not
expected. The Honolulu market was not considered a core, strategic
market for the Company. With respect to its 2007 results, Equinix
excludes the loss from conversion and extinguishment of debt and the
gain from EMS sale. The loss from conversion and extinguishment of
debt represents activity that is not typical for the company. The gain
on EMS sale represents a unique transaction for the Company and future
sales of other service offerings are not expected. Management believes
such items as restructuring charges, the gain on the sale of an IBX
center and a service offering and the loss from conversion and
extinguishment of debt are unique transactions that are not expected
to recur, and consequently, does not consider these items as a normal
component of expenses or income related to current and ongoing
operations.
Our management does not itself, nor does it suggest that investors
should, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from,
or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance
with GAAP. However, we have presented such non-GAAP financial measures
to provide investors with an additional tool to evaluate our operating
results in a manner that focuses on what management believes to be our
core, ongoing business operations. Management believes that the
inclusion of these non-GAAP financial measures provide consistency and
comparability with past reports and provide a better understanding of
the overall performance of the business and its ability to perform in
subsequent periods. Equinix believes that if it did not provide such
non-GAAP financial information, investors would not have all the
necessary data to analyze Equinix effectively.
Investors should note, however, that the non-GAAP financial
measures used by Equinix may not be the same non-GAAP financial
measures, and may not be calculated in the same manner, as that of
other companies. In addition, whenever Equinix uses such non-GAAP
financial measures, it provides a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial
measures to the most closely applicable GAAP financial measure.
Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures
and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their
most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
Equinix does not provide forward-looking guidance for certain
financial data, such as depreciation, amortization, accretion, net
income (loss) from operations, cash generated from operating
activities and cash used in investing activities, and as a result, is
not able to provide a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial
measures for forward-looking data. Equinix intends to calculate the
various non-GAAP financial measures in future periods consistent with
how it was calculated for the three and twelve months ended December
31, 2007 and 2006, presented within this press release.
