"We are very pleased with the overall results for the third quarter, including record revenues," said William W. Smith Jr., President and CEO of Smith Micro Software, Inc. "As expected, our Multimedia division, which was slightly impacted in Q2, bounced back with a strong performance for the quarter."

Mr. Smith continued, "We are also pleased with the continued progress that we have made with our growth strategies for our Connectivity & Security product solution, where we added two new wireless carriers recently, giving us a strong indicator of a healthy data connectivity market as more wireless carriers seek to introduce wireless data connectivity services for their customers in the United States. In addition, contributions from the Compression & Consumer business unit remain strong and the demand for our exclusive republishing products, especially the launch of VMware Fusion contributed to our record Q3 performance. As we announced at the beginning of Q3, we have expanded our multimedia product line with the development of Revue, our newest multimedia product designed for Smartphones running Windows Mobile, one of the fastest growing segments of the Smartphone marketplace. We view this new Smith Micro branded product as an exciting opportunity to reach and significantly expand our customer base in our consumer and OEM segments."

The Company uses a non-GAAP reconciliation of net income and earnings per share in the presentation of financial results in this press release. Management believes that this presentation may be more meaningful in analyzing our income generation, since amortization of intangibles from acquisitions, stock-based compensation, and non-cash tax expense are excluded from the non-GAAP earnings calculation. This presentation may be considered more indicative of our ongoing operational performance. The tables below present the differences between non-GAAP earnings and net income on an absolute and per share basis. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP, and the non-financial measures as reported by Smith Micro Software may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies.
