SAN CARLOS, Calif., April 3, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- DemandTec, Inc. (Nasdaq:DMAN), a leading provider of on-demand merchandising and marketing software services for retailers and consumer products companies, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2008 ended February 29, 2008.

"During the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2008, we delivered financial results that met or exceeded our guidance and, even more importantly, we continued to make progress against our three point growth strategy -- winning new retailers, expanding our relationships with existing retailers and consumer products (CP) companies, and leveraging our strong presence with retailers to create and expand our relationships with their CP trading partners," said Dan Fishback, President and Chief Executive Officer of DemandTec.

Fishback added, "From a long-term perspective, we are optimistic about DemandTec's opportunity based on the strategic nature of the market we are serving, combined with our proven value proposition, expanding global presence, strong competitive position and SaaS business model that is based on recurring revenue. We plan to continue investing in our business during fiscal 2009 to solidify and extend our market leadership position, much as our industry leading customers seek to gain a strategic advantage during more challenging macroeconomic times. At the same time, we remain focused on cash flow generation for our stockholders."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The accompanying press release dated April 3, 2008 contains non-GAAP financial measures. The above table reconciles the non-GAAP financial measures in the press release to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP cost of revenue, gross profit, gross margin, operating expenses, income (loss) from operations, net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, and net income (loss) per share amounts.

Our non-GAAP financial measures generally exclude costs and expenses for (i) amortization of purchased intangible assets related to our acquisition of TradePoint, Inc. and (ii) stock-based compensation:

Amortization of Purchased Intangible Assets. In accordance with GAAP, we amortize intangible assets acquired in connection with our acquisition of TradePoint, Inc. over the estimated useful lives of the assets. We exclude these amortization costs in our non-GAAP financial measures because they (i) result from a prior acquisition, rather than the ongoing operating performance of our business, and (ii) absent additional acquisitions, are expected to decline over time as the remaining carrying amounts of these assets are amortized. We believe excluding these costs helps investors compare our financial performance with that of other companies with different acquisition histories. However, we recognize that amortization costs provide a helpful measure of the financial impact and performance of prior acquisitions and consider our non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with our GAAP financial results that include amortization costs.

Stock-Based Compensation Expenses. We exclude stock-based compensation expense associated with equity incentives granted to employees, non-employees and non-executive directors in our non-GAAP financial measures. While stock-based compensation is a significant component of our expenses, we believe that investors may wish to exclude the effects of stock-based compensation expense in comparing our financial performance with that of other companies.

Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP financial measures, which should be considered as the primarily financial metrics for evaluating our financial performance. Significantly, non-GAAP financial measures are not based on a comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Instead, they are based on subjective determinations by management designed to supplement our GAAP financial measures. They are subject to a number of important limitations and should be considered only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our non-GAAP financial measures differ from GAAP measures with the same names, may vary over time and may differ from non-GAAP financial measures with the same or similar names used by other companies. Accordingly, investors should exercise caution when evaluating our non-GAAP financial measures.
