ACTIVE Network (NYSE:ACTV), the leader in cloud-based activity and participant management™ solutions, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2013.
Q3 2013 Financial Highlights:
(All comparisons are made to the third quarter of 2012)
“I am very pleased with our third quarter results,” said Jon Belmonte, Interim CEO of ACTIVE Network. “During the quarter, we entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Vista Equity Partners, which we believe will be a very positive event for stockholders and will help position us to further capitalize on the market opportunity.”
Q3 2013 Key Business Highlights
Merger Agreement with Vista Equity Partners
On September 28, 2013, ACTIVE Network entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by affiliates of Vista Equity Partners (“Vista”), a leading private equity firm focused on investments in software, data and technology-enabled businesses, in a transaction valued at approximately $1.05 billion. Pursuant to the agreement, Vista has commenced a tender offer to acquire all of the outstanding shares of ACTIVE Network’s common stock for $14.50 per share, in cash, payable without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes. Any shares not tendered in the offer will be acquired in a second-step merger at the same cash price as paid in the tender offer. The transaction is expected to close before the end of the fourth quarter of 2013. Upon the completion of the transaction, ACTIVE Network will become a privately held company.
Conference Call Information
Due to the previously announced merger agreement with Vista, ACTIVE Network will not host a conference call in conjunction with today's release of its third quarter 2013 results and will not be updating prior financial guidance or providing financial guidance for future periods.

Note With Respect to Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to using GAAP financial results, the Company's management measures and reports non-GAAP financial measures including Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP net income (loss) and Non-GAAP net income (loss) per share. The most directly comparable GAAP financial results for these non-GAAP financial measures are Net income (loss), Net income (loss) and Net income (loss) per share, respectively. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the Company's performance and operations. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures for business planning, to evaluate acquisition opportunities and as a measurement to create incentives and to compensate the Company's management team. In addition, management believes the exclusion or inclusion of certain amounts in calculating these non-GAAP financial measures can provide a useful measure to investors for period-to-period comparisons. These non-GAAP financial measures, however, should be used in addition to, and in conjunction with, the Company's financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company strongly encourages investors to review its financial statements in their entirety and to not rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare the Company's results with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. Please see Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Results below for a reconciliation of our GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.
Forward-Looking Statements
The Active Network, Inc. cautions you that the statements included in this press release that are not a description of historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Any such statements are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties, including the Company's ability to generate revenue and control expenses in order to achieve and maintain profitability, the Company's ability to maintain an adequate rate of growth and improve its operations, including growing its registrations and revenue from registrations, and the Company's ability to successfully manage its acquisitions and investments in businesses, applications and technologies, the effects of the Company’s recent management change, and the Company’s ability to successfully consider and evaluate its strategic alternatives, as well as the other risks detailed from time to time in the reports it files with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As a result of these risks and uncertainties, the Company's actual results may differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. This press release also contains forward-looking statements with respect to the tender offer and related transactions, including the benefits expected from the acquisition and the expected timing of the completion of the transaction. Such statements are based on a number of assumptions that could ultimately prove inaccurate, and are subject to a number of risks, including uncertainties regarding the timing of the closing of the transaction, uncertainties as to the number of the Company’s stockholders who may tender their stock in the tender offer, the possibility that various closing conditions for the transaction may not be satisfied or waived, and general economic and business conditions. Factors that could cause actual results of the tender offer to differ materially include the following: the risk of failing to satisfy conditions to the transaction, the risk that Vista is unable to obtain adequate financing, the risk that the transaction will not close or that closing will be delayed, the risk that the Company’s business will suffer due to uncertainty related to the transaction, the competitive environment in the Company’s industry and competitive responses to the transaction. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. All forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement and the Company undertakes no obligation to revise or update this press release to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof.
