RADNOR, Pa., Aug. 7, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ICG Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: ICGE ) ("ICG") today reported its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2014.
Revenue was $19.0 million for the second quarter of 2014, up from $13.5 million for the second quarter of 2013. Net loss for the second quarter of 2014 was $(12.9) million, or $(0.35) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $(6.9) million, or $(0.19) per diluted share, for the corresponding 2013 quarter. Non-GAAP net income (loss) for the second quarter of 2014 was $(4.3) million, or $(0.12) per share, compared to a Non-GAAP net income (loss) of $(3.7) million, or $(0.10) per diluted share, for the comparable prior year quarter.
Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $37.5 million, up from $25.5 million for the comparable period of 2013. Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $(23.0) million, or $(0.62) per diluted share, compared to net income of $12.2 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, for the corresponding 2013 period which reflects the gains that ICG realized on the 2013 sales of Channel Intelligence and Investor Force.
"We were pleased with our continued revenue growth and are excited about a number of new market expansion initiatives," said Walter Buckley, ICG's Chief Executive Officer. "Topping that list is MSDSonline's recent acquisition of Knowledge Management Innovations, a cloud-based technology provider to the global environmental health and safety sector. The addition of KMI increases the depth and breadth of the MSDSonline platform, specifically around incident management and reporting, and expands our footprint in the environmental health and safety sector."
"Additionally, we increased both sales and marketing and research and development by approximately 50% compared to the second quarter of last year," continued Buckley. "These investments position us for ongoing innovation and market leadership, which will enable us to drive strong growth and long term value creation."
Guidance
Due to the KMI acquisition positively impacting revenue for the remainder of 2014 by $1 million, ICG is increasing its 2014 annual revenue guidance by $1 million to the range of $79.0 million and $81.0 million. Non-GAAP net income (loss) per share continues to be expected in the range of $(0.36) to $(0.41) per diluted share for the full year of 2014.
Stockholder Approval of Name Change to Actua
At its 2014 Annual Meeting, ICG received stockholder approval to change its name to Actua Corporation. This change will take effect on September 3, 2014. With the open of trading on that date, ICG's ticker symbol on the Nasdaq exchange will change from ICGE to ACTA.

About ICG's Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release contains non-GAAP financial measures. The tables above reconcile these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. ICG strongly urges investors and potential investors in our securities to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures that are included in this release.
ICG's management believes that its non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors because they allow investors to view the business through the eyes of management and provide meaningful supplemental information regarding ICG's operating results, as they exclude amounts that ICG excludes as part of its monitoring of operating results and assessment of the performance of the business.
ICG presents the following non-GAAP financial measures in this release: (1) non-GAAP net income (loss) (also referred to as adjusted net income (loss)) and (2) non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share (also referred to as adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share). ICG excludes items from these non-GAAP financial measures as described below.
Non-GAAP net income (loss), excludes the additional following items:
- Share-based compensation . ICG excludes share-based compensation expenses and other expenses associated with equity granted to employees and non-employee directors primarily because they are non-cash expenses that ICG does not consider part of ongoing operating results when assessing the performance of its business, and the exclusion of these expenses facilitates the comparison of results over different time periods and the comparison of ICG's results with results of other companies.
- Amortization of intangibles . ICG excludes amortization of acquired intangibles, which consists primarily of customer relationships and technology, because they are expenses that ICG does not consider part of ongoing operating results when assessing the performance of its business, and ICG believes that doing so facilitates comparisons to its historical operating results and to the results of other companies.
- Impairment-related and other costs . ICG excludes the effect of impairment-related and other costs, which primarily include impairment charges, revaluation of contingent consideration, restructuring and severance fees, acquisition related costs, legal and settlement costs and other one-time costs, because ICG does not consider them part of ongoing operating results when assessing the performance of its business and believes it is useful for investors to understand the effects of these items on ICG's operations.
- Other income (loss), net . ICG excludes the effect of other income (loss), net, which primarily includes transaction-driven gains and losses, as well as certain foreign currency impacts, because ICG does not consider them part of ongoing operating results when assessing the performance of its business and believes it is useful for investors to understand the effects of these items on ICG's operations.
- Acquired businesses' deferred revenue . ICG includes acquired businesses' previously deferred revenues that are not recognized under GAAP because ICG considers them a part of ongoing operating results when assessing the performance of its business and believes it is useful for investors to understand the effects of these items on its operations.
- Equity loss . In accordance with GAAP, ICG recognizes its share of the earnings or losses of each company accounted for under the equity method and adjusts the carrying amount for each such company for its share of the earnings or losses of the company. ICG excludes GAAP equity income (loss) because it is significantly impacted by factors outside its direct control.
- Current non-cash income tax benefit on discrete items . ICG excludes the impact of any current non-cash income tax benefit associated with discrete items as ICG believes it is useful for investors to understand the effect of this item and ICG does not consider them a part of ongoing operating results when assessing the performance of its business.
- Income (loss) from discontinued operations . ICG excludes the income (loss) from discontinued operations as ICG believes it is useful for investors to understand the effect of these items for all periods presented as ICG does not consider them a part of ongoing operating results when assessing the performance of its business.
- Impact of non-controlling interest (NCI) on discontinued operations . ICG does not own 100% of the discontinued operations presented. Therefore ICG excludes the impact of the NCI on discontinued operations as ICG believes it is useful for investors to understand the effect of these items for all periods presented as compared to what has historically been provided as ICG does not consider them a part of ongoing operating results when assessing the performance of its business.
Non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share is calculated as follows:
- Non-GAAP net income (loss) (as defined above) is the numerator.
- Shares used in calculation of non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share . For periods where GAAP and non-GAAP net income (loss) are both losses, ICG uses the same number of shares used to calculate GAAP and non-GAAP net loss per share. For periods where GAAP and non-GAAP net income (loss) are both income, ICG uses the same number of shares used to calculate GAAP and non-GAAP net income per diluted share. For periods where GAAP net income (loss) is a loss but non-GAAP net income (loss) is income, ICG includes the impact of incremental dilutive securities for the period to determine non-GAAP net income per diluted share. For periods where GAAP net income (loss) is income but non-GAAP net income (loss) is a loss, ICG excludes the impact of incremental dilutive securities for the period to determine non-GAAP net loss per diluted share.
ICG believes that the following considerations apply to the non-GAAP financial measures that it presents:
- ICG's management uses non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share in internal reports used by management in monitoring and making decisions regarding ICG's business, including in monthly financial reports prepared for management and in periodic reports to ICG's Board of Directors.
- An important limitation of ICG's non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude expenses, some of which may be significant, that are required by GAAP to be recorded. In addition, non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations because they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which charges to exclude from the non-GAAP financial measures.
- To mitigate the limitations associated with non-GAAP financial measures, ICG reconciles its non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest comparable GAAP financial measures and recommends that investors and potential investors do not give undue weight to its non-GAAP financial measures.
