Item 1.01.         Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

First Amendment to Credit Agreement

 

As of October 30, 2015, Internap Corporation (the “Company”), the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”) and Jefferies Finance LLC, as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”), and as consented to by guarantor parties thereto, entered into a First Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”). The First Amendment amends the Credit Agreement, dated as of November 26, 2013 (the “Credit Agreement”), among the Company, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, by removing from the definition of “change in control” the alleged “dead hand proxy put” provision whereby certain changes in the composition of the Company’s board of directors would have constituted a change of control and thereby an event of default under the Credit Agreement.

 

The Company and its subsidiaries from time to time have had, and may continue to have, various commercial, lending or other relationships with the Lenders and the Lenders’ respective affiliates.

ATLANTA, GA – (November 5, 2015) Internap Corporation (NASDAQ: INAP), a provider of high-performance Internet infrastructure services, today announced financial results for the third quarter of 2015.

 

“Our company-wide growth initiatives are beginning to yield encouraging results.

Additionally, customer churn is improving while channel partner productivity is increasing,” said Michael Ruffolo, President and Chief Executive Officer of Internap. “We believe our third quarter 2015 results provide a solid foundation to accelerate top-line revenue growth and expand margins. With a disciplined approach to capital allocation, we are encouraged in our ability to generate positive levered free cash flow. We remain confident that our compelling performance-based value proposition should drive long-term profitable growth for the business.”

Revenue

 

Revenue totaled $78.3 million in the third quarter, a decrease of 7% year-over-year and 3% sequentially. The year-over-year decrease was due to the loss of revenue related to customer attrition following our migration out of the New York metro data center into our Secaucus facility, the decrease in partner colocation revenue and lower IP revenue, partially offset by organic growth in core data center services revenue. Sequentially, revenue declined in data center services and IP services.

 

Data center services revenue totaled $58.6 million in the third quarter, a decrease of 5% year-over-year and 1% sequentially. The year-over-year decrease was primarily due to the loss of revenue from the New York metro data center migration. The sequential decrease was primarily attributable to previously-disclosed hosting churn experienced late in the second quarter of 2015, partially offset by organic growth in core revenues. Partner colocation revenue declined due to our strategy to focus on selling into our company-controlled data centers.

 

IP services revenue totaled $19.7 million in the third quarter, a decrease of 14% year-over-year and 6% sequentially. Both decreases were driven by a decline in IP pricing for new and renewing customers and the loss of legacy contracts.

 

Net Loss

 

GAAP net loss was $(14.2) million, or $(0.27) per share, compared with $(9.4) million, or $(0.18) per share, in the third quarter of 2014 and $(12.5) million, or $(0.24) per share, in the second quarter of 2015.

 

Normalized net loss was $(10.0) million, or $(0.19) per share, compared with normalized net loss of $(7.5) million, or $(0.15) per share, in the third quarter of 2014, and normalized net loss of $(10.3) million, or $(0.20) per share, in the second quarter of 2015.

 

Segment Profit and Adjusted EBITDA

 

Segment profit totaled $44.6 million in the third quarter, a 6% decrease year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter. Segment margin was 57.0%, an increase of 90 basis points year-over-year and a decrease of 200 basis points sequentially.

 

Data center services segment profit totaled $33.5 million in the third quarter, a 1% decrease compared with the third quarter of 2014 and a 4% decrease from the second quarter of 2015. Data center services segment margin was 57.2% in the third quarter, up 220 basis points year-over-year and down 180 basis points sequentially. An increasing proportion of higher-margin services, specifically colocation sold in company-controlled data centers, hosting and cloud services drove data center services segment profit and margin higher compared with the third quarter of 2014. Higher seasonal power costs resulted in a decrease in data center services segment profit and margin compared with the second quarter of 2015.

 

IP services segment profit totaled $11.1 million in the third quarter, an 18% decrease compared with the third quarter of 2014 and a 10% decrease from the second quarter of 2015. IP services segment margin was 56.5% in the third quarter, down 250 basis points year-over-year and 240 basis points sequentially. Lower IP transit revenue and the loss of legacy contracts drove the decrease in segment profit and segment margin.

 

Adjusted EBITDA totaled $19.8 million in the third quarter, flat compared with the third quarter of 2014 and a 3% increase from the second quarter of 2015. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 25.2% in the third quarter, up 190 basis points year-over-year and 140 basis points sequentially. Lower cash operating expense 4 positively impacted adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin. Benefits included a decrease in sales and marketing costs primarily related to the removal of redundancies in connection with the phase-out of the iWeb trade name and other marketing program efficiencies. General and administrative costs decreased primarily due to lower cash-based compensation.

 

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Statement

 

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $18.3 million at September 30, 2015. Total debt was $376.3 million, net of discount, at the end of the quarter, including $57.5 million in capital lease obligations.

 

Cash generated from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was $10.8 million. Capital expenditures over the same period were $10.9 million and cash interest expense was $6.7 million, resulting in $2.2 million of levered free cash flow.

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This press release contains forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include statements related to our ability to accelerate top-line growth, expand margins, generate positive levered free cash flow and drive long-term profitable growth and our expectations for full-year 2015 revenue, adjusted EBITDA and capital expenditures. Our ability to accelerate top-line growth, expand margins, generate positive levered free cash flow and drive long-term profitable growth and our expectations for full-year 2015 revenue, adjusted EBITDA and capital expenditures are based on certain assumptions, including anticipated new product launches, our ability to execute on our business strategy, leveraging of multiple routes to market, expanded brand awareness for high-performance Internet infrastructure services and customer churn levels. These assumptions may prove to be inaccurate in the future. Because such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, there are important factors that could cause Internap’s actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. These factors include our ability to execute on our business strategy and drive growth; the robustness of the IT infrastructure services market; our ability to achieve or sustain profitability; our ability to expand margins and drive higher returns on investment; our ability to complete expansion of company-controlled data centers within the expected timeframe; our ability to sell into new and existing data center space; the actual performance of our IT infrastructure services; our ability to maintain current customers and obtain new ones, whether in a cost-effective manner or at all; our ability to correctly forecast capital needs, demand planning and space utilization; our ability to respond successfully to technological change and the resulting competition; the availability of services from Internet network service providers or network service providers providing network access loops and local loops on favorable terms, or at all; failure of third party suppliers to deliver their products and services on favorable terms, or at all; failures in our network operations centers, data centers, network access points or computer systems; our ability to provide or improve Internet infrastructure services to our customers; and our ability to protect our intellectual property, as well as other factors discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. We undertake no obligation to update, amend or clarify any forward-looking statement for any reason.

INTERNAP CORPORATION
NON-GAAP (ADJUSTED) FINANCIAL MEASURES

 

In addition to providing financial measurements based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), Internap has historically provided additional financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP (“non-GAAP”), including adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, normalized net loss, normalized diluted shares outstanding, segment profit and segment margin and cash operating expense. The most directly comparable GAAP equivalent to adjusted EBITDA and normalized net loss is loss from operations and net loss, respectively. The most directly comparable GAAP equivalent to normalized diluted shares outstanding is diluted common shares outstanding.

 

We define non-GAAP measures as follows:

 

Adjusted EBITDA is loss from operations plus depreciation and amortization, loss (gain) on disposals of property and equipment, exit activities, restructuring and impairments, stock-based compensation, acquisition costs and strategic alternatives and related costs.

 

Adjusted EBITDA margin is adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues.

 

Normalized net loss is net loss plus exit activities, restructuring and impairments, stock-based compensation, acquisition costs and strategic alternatives and related costs.

 

Normalized diluted shares outstanding are diluted shares of common stock outstanding used in GAAP net loss per share calculations, excluding the dilutive effect of stock-based compensation using the treasury stock method.

 

Normalized net loss per share is normalized net loss divided by basic and normalized diluted shares outstanding.

 

Segment profit is segment revenues less direct costs of sales and services, exclusive of depreciation and amortization for the segment, as presented in the notes to our consolidated financial statements. Segment profit does not include direct costs of customer support, direct costs of amortization of acquired and developed technologies or any other depreciation or amortization associated with direct costs.

 

Segment margin is segment profit as a percentage of segment revenues.

 

Levered free cash flow is adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures, net of equipment sale-leaseback transactions and cash paid for interest.

 

Cash operating expense is GAAP operating expense less direct cost of sales and services, depreciation and amortization, loss (gain) on disposals of property and equipment, exit activities, restructuring and impairments, stock-based compensation, acquisition costs and strategic alternatives and related costs.

 

We detail reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure in the reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP measures below. We believe that presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations.

 

We believe that excluding depreciation and amortization and loss on disposals of property and equipment, as well as impairments and restructuring, to calculate adjusted EBITDA provides supplemental information and an alternative presentation that is useful to investors’ understanding of our core operating results and trends. Not only are depreciation and amortization expenses based on historical costs of assets that may have little bearing on present or future replacement costs, but also they are based on management estimates of remaining useful lives. Loss on disposals of property and equipment is also based on historical costs of assets that may have little bearing on replacement costs. Impairments and restructuring expenses primarily reflect goodwill impairments and subsequent plan adjustments in sublease income assumptions for certain properties included in our previously disclosed restructuring plans.

 

We believe that impairment and restructuring charges are unique costs that we do not expect to recur on a regular basis, and consequently, we do not consider these charges as a normal component of expenses related to current and ongoing operations.

 

Similarly, we believe that excluding the effects of stock-based compensation from non-GAAP financial measures provides supplemental information and an alternative presentation useful to investors’ understanding of our core operating results and trends. Investors have indicated that they consider financial measures of our results of operations excluding stock-based compensation as important supplemental information useful to their understanding of our historical results and estimating our future results.

INTERNAP CORPORATION
NON-GAAP (ADJUSTED) FINANCIAL MEASURES (Continued)

 

We also believe that, in excluding the effects of stock-based compensation, our non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with transparency into what management uses to measure and forecast our results of operations, to compare on a consistent basis our results of operations for the current period to that of prior periods and to compare our results of operations on a more consistent basis against that of other companies, in making financial and operating decisions and to establish certain management compensation.

 

Stock-based compensation is an important part of total compensation, especially from the perspective of employees. We believe, however, that supplementing GAAP net loss and net loss per share information by providing normalized net loss and normalized net loss per share, excluding the effect of exit activities, restructuring and impairments, stock-based compensation and acquisition costs in all periods, is useful to investors because it enables additional and more meaningful period-to-period comparisons. We consider normalized diluted shares to be another important indicator of our overall performance because it eliminates the effect of non-cash items.

 

Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of liquidity calculated in accordance with GAAP, and should be viewed as a supplement to — not a substitute for — our results of operations presented on the basis of GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA does not purport to represent cash flow provided by operating activities as defined by GAAP. Our statements of cash flows present our cash flow activity in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to similarly-titled measures reported by other companies.

 

We believe adjusted EBITDA is used by and is useful to investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating our operating performance because it provides them with an additional tool to compare business performance across companies and across periods. We believe that:

 

EBITDA is widely used by investors to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items such as interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, which can vary substantially from company-to-company depending upon accounting methods and book value of assets, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired; and

 

investors commonly adjust EBITDA information to eliminate the effect of disposals of property and equipment, impairments, restructuring and stock-based compensation which vary widely from company-to-company and impair comparability.

 

Our management uses adjusted EBITDA:

 

as a measure of operating performance to assist in comparing performance from period-to-period on a consistent basis;

 

as a measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations; and

 

in communications with the board of directors, analysts and investors concerning our financial performance.

 

Our presentation of segment profit and segment margin excludes direct costs of customer support and depreciation and amortization in order to allow investors to see the business through the eyes of management. Management views direct costs of network, sales and services as generally less controllable, external costs and management regularly monitors the margin of revenues in excess of these direct costs. Similarly, we view the costs of customer support to also be an important component of costs of revenues but believe that the costs of customer support to be more within our control and to some degree discretionary as we can adjust those costs by hiring and terminating employees.

 

Segment margin is an important metric to our investors and analysts, as we have regularly discussed and disclosed the effects of third party vendors’ pricing declines and the corresponding effect on our revenues. The presentation of segment margin highlights the impact of the pricing declines and allows investors and analysts to evaluate our revenue generation performance relative to direct costs of network, sales and services. Conversely, we have much greater latitude in controlling the compensation component of costs of revenues, represented by customer support, and we analyze this component separately from the direct external costs.

 

We also have excluded depreciation and amortization from segment profit and segment margin because, as noted above, they are based on estimated useful lives of tangible and intangible assets. Further, depreciation and amortization are based on historical costs incurred to build out our deployed network and the historical costs of these assets may not be indicative of current or future capital expenditures.

INTERNAP CORPORATION
NON-GAAP (ADJUSTED) FINANCIAL MEASURES (Continued)

 

Although we believe, for the foregoing reasons, that our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information to investors regarding our results of operations, our non-GAAP financial measures should only be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, any measure of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

 

Use of non-GAAP financial measures is subject to inherent limitations because they do not include all the expenses that must be included under GAAP and because they involve the exercise of judgment of which charges should properly be excluded from the non-GAAP financial measure. Management accounts for these limitations by not relying exclusively on non-GAAP financial measures, but only using such information to supplement GAAP financial measures. Our non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same non-GAAP measures, and may not be calculated in the same manner, as those used by other companies.
