ST. LOUIS, Feb. 3 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2009 Adjusted EBITDA* Up 7% Quarterly
and 19% Annually
Savvis, Inc. (Nasdaq: SVVS), a global leader in outsourced internet
infrastructure services for enterprises, today reported its fourth quarter
2009 financial results, with revenue of US$219.8 million, compared to
US$222.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2008. Adjusted EBITDA was US$54.9
million, compared to US$52.0 million of adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter
of 2008.
Income from operations for the fourth quarter of 2009 was US$10.4
million, compared to US$15.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2008. The
company reported a net loss of (US$5.4) million, or (US$0.10) per share, in
the fourth quarter of 2009, compared to a fourth quarter 2008 net loss of
(US$0.3) million, or (US$0.01) per share.
For full year 2009, revenue was US$874.4 million, up 2% when compared to
full year 2008 revenue of US$857.0 million. Adjusted EBITDA for 2009 was

Leveraged free cash flow* in 2009 was US$50.1 million, up significantly

free cash flow is due to a reduction in capital expenditures in 2009,

Savvis reported income from operations of US$40.1 million in 2009. The

global, information distribution services company. In addition, we saw strong
sales in the financial and media verticals, as well as with our cloud
offerings. We are pleased with the sequential revenue growth in the fourth

Percentage Change 4% 2%
Overall Hosting revenue was $154.7 million in the fourth quarter, up 2%
on a year-over-year basis. On a quarter-over-quarter basis, Hosting revenue
was up 4%.
For the quarter, Managed Services contributed $67.8 million to overall
Hosting revenue, or 44%, and included $2.2 million in early termination fees.
Managed Services revenue was up 8%, on a quarterly basis, and positive trends
in cloud revenue contributed to the fourth quarter improvement. On an annual
basis, Managed Services revenue was flat. Excluding fourth quarter 2008
revenue of $5.2 million from the American Stock Exchange, Managed Services
revenue was up 8%, year-over-year.
Colocation contributed $86.9 million to overall Hosting revenue in the
quarter, or 56%. Year-over-year, Colocation revenue grew 4%. On a
quarter-over-quarter basis, colocation revenue growth was 2%. As expected,
Savvis saw several colocation customers transition to their own underutilized
data centers late in the fourth quarter. This churn will result in a first
quarter 2010 sequential quarterly decline in colocation revenue of $6.1
million.
Network

Percentage Change 0% (9%)
Overall Network revenue was $65.1 million in the fourth quarter and was
down (9%) on an annual basis. On a quarterly basis, Network revenue was flat,
as the company began to see some initial results from its long-term strategy
to focus on Core Network customers, which are generally associated with its
data centers.
For the quarter, Core Network contributed $31.4 million to overall
Network revenue, or 48%. Core Network revenue was up 27%, on a year-over-year
basis, and was up 10%, on a quarter-over-quarter basis. Core Network includes
network revenue from Thomson Reuters and from other financial vertical and
data center customers, who also purchase bundled network and hosting
services.
Sustaining Network contributed $33.7 million to overall Network revenue
in the quarter, or 52%. Year-over-year, Sustaining Network revenue declined
(28%). On a quarter-over-quarter basis, Sustaining Network revenue was down
(7%). Sustaining Network includes revenue from network services that are
either in slower growth or declining markets or are not directly tied to the
future growth of the company's Hosting and Network businesses.
Highlights
The financial vertical represented 26% of total revenue, or $57.7
million, in the fourth quarter of 2009. Revenue in the quarter was down (2%),
compared to the fourth quarter of 2008, and up 7%, compared to the third
quarter of 2009. Savvis saw sequential improvement in its proximity hosting
business and overall good growth in the financial vertical, in the fourth
quarter.
Also during the quarter, Savvis reported cloud revenue of $2.5 million,
up 25% on a quarter-over-quarter basis and 105% year-over-year. In addition,
Savvis announced that it had expanded its progressive relationship with Cisco
to include the use of the Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) in its
Symphony Virtual Private Data Center (VPDC) cloud offering.
In the fourth quarter, Savvis brought new Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)
customers on board, including Peopleclick. Its database of more than 90
million resumes will be powered by Savvis. As part of the three-year
agreement, Peopleclick is deploying Savvis' SaaS IT infrastructure solution,
which is hosted from multiple Savvis data centers in the United States and
the United Kingdom. SaaS revenue in the fourth quarter was $19.3 million, up
3% on a quarter-over-quarter basis and 31% year-over-year.
In addition to new relationships, Savvis saw existing client
relationships grow stronger, during the fourth quarter. The Thomson Reuters
collaboration, which was announced in the quarter, is ahead of plan. This
relationship showed revenue growth, and it is contributing to the company's
Hosting and Network revenue. At present, the Thomson Reuters solution is
deployed in five of the anticipated six data centers, with Frankfurt expected
online by the end of the first quarter of 2010.
Cash Flow and Balance Sheet
Net cash provided by operating activities was $57.5 million in the fourth
quarter of 2009, compared to $44.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2008.
Cash capital expenditures for the fourth quarter of 2009 totaled $57.1
million.
The company's cash position at December 31, 2009, was $160.8 million,
compared to $163.5 million at September 30, 2009. As of December 31, 2009,
the long-term debt and capital leases for Savvis (net of current portion)
totaled $600.0 million. During the fourth quarter, the company expanded its
existing footprint at its CH4 data center, in downtown Chicago, by 50% and
lengthened the term of the lease. This resulted in an increase in capital
lease obligations, as CH4 was reclassified as a capital lease valued at $37.8
million, in aggregate.

Full Year Highlights
In 2009, Savvis continued as a leader in the financial vertical, when it
added Chi-X Canada, the Turquoise Multilateral Trading Facility in Europe,
and Credit Suisse CrossFinder as Savvis connectivity options. The company
also announced that BATS Global Markets expanded its hosting space in Savvis'
Weehawken, NJ, data center and expanded its footprint within the Savvis
Docklands data center in London. Outside the financial vertical, Savvis
announced big customer wins in the areas of SaaS and media, among others.
Savvis was positioned in the Leaders Quadrant in the Web Hosting and
Hosted Cloud System Infrastructure Services Magic Quadrant, in 2009. The
Gartner Magic Quadrant is widely recognized as one of the most influential
reports for enterprises seeking to evaluate hosting vendors. Its evaluation
is based on completeness of vision, including market understanding, product
strategy and innovation, and assesses ability to execute, which includes
operations and overall viability, among other criteria.
Significant year-over-year trends for Savvis include Hosting revenue
growth of 8% and a 26% improvement in Core Network revenue. In the financial
vertical, 2009 revenue was $229.1 million, up 3% over 2008. The company's
cloud revenue for 2009 was $7.4 million, which was up 93% over 2008. SaaS
2009 revenue of $70.7 million was up 38%, year-over-year.
Financial Outlook
"We look forward to quarterly sequential growth beginning in the second
quarter and continuing throughout 2010," said Greg Freiberg, chief financial
officer for Savvis. "However, we still expect the colocation churn we
experienced late in the fourth quarter to impact sequential revenue and
adjusted EBITDA growth in the first quarter."
Savvis currently expects the following for full year 2010:
- Adjusted EBITDA of $205 to $225 million
- Total cash capital expenditures of $180 to $200 million, including
approximately $53 million for data center expansion
- Cash interest expense (net) of approximately $40 to $50 million

Forward-Looking Statements
This document contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results may
differ materially from Savvis' expectations. Certain factors that could
adversely affect actual results are set forth as risk factors described in
Savvis' SEC reports and filings, including its annual report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2008, and subsequent filings. Those risk factors
include, but are not limited to, uncertainties in economic conditions,
including conditions that could pressure enterprise IT spending; introduction
of, demand for and market acceptance of Savvis' products and services;
whether or not Savvis is able to sign additional outsourcing deals;
variability in pricing for those products and services; merger and
acquisition activity by Savvis customers or other customer activity that
affects the level of business done with Savvis; rapid evolution of
technology; changes in the operating environment; and changes or proposed
changes in, or introduction of new, regulatory schemes or environments that
impact Savvis and/or its customers' businesses. The forward-looking
statements contained in this document speak only as of the date of

the company's forward-looking statements to change, and the company will not

* Non-GAAP Measures
Savvis includes information pertaining to certain non-GAAP measures in
conjunction with reporting of its quarterly and year-end financial results.
"Adjusted EBITDA" represents income from operations before depreciation,
amortization and accretion, gains and losses on sales of assets, and
non-cash, equity-based compensation. We have included information concerning
adjusted EBITDA because we believe that in our industry such information is a
relevant measurement of a company's operating financial performance and
liquidity. "Leveraged free cash flow" (formerly known as adjusted free cash
flow) represents adjusted EBITDA less cash capital expenditures and less cash
interest, net. We have included information concerning leveraged free cash
flow because we believe that in our industry such information is a relevant
measurement of a company's operating financial performance and liquidity.
"Cash return on capital employed" represents operating cash flow divided by
capital employed (short-term and long-term debt plus equity). We have
included information concerning cash return on capital employed because we
believe that in our industry such information is a relevant measurement of a
company's operating financial performance and its efficient use of capital.
We do not provide forward looking guidance for certain financial data, such
as income from operations, depreciation, amortization and accretion,
non-cash, equity-based compensation, and interest income. As a result, we are
unable to provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted
EBITDA, leveraged free cash flow and cash return on capital employed for
forward looking data, including 2010 full-year guidance. The calculations of
adjusted EBITDA, leveraged free cash flow and cash return on capital employed
are not specified by United States generally accepted accounting principles.
Our calculations of adjusted EBITDA, leveraged free cash flow and cash return
on capital employed may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of
other companies.

(1) Corporate - Other adjusted EBITDA includes all costs not directly
associated with hosting services or network services. Costs not
directly associated with hosting services or network services
include, but are not limited to, general and administrative costs.
(2) Adjusted EBITDA represents income from operations before
depreciation, amortization, accretion and non-cash, equity-based
compensation. We have included information concerning adjusted
EBITDA because we believe that in our industry such information is
a relevant measurement of a company's operating financial
performance and liquidity. The calculation of adjusted EBITDA is
not specified by United States generally accepted accounting
principles. Our calculation of adjusted EBITDA may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
(3) Leveraged Free Cash Flow represents adjusted EBITDA less cash
capital expenditures and less cash interest, net. We have included
information concerning leveraged free cash flow because we believe
that in our industry such information is a relevant measurement of
a company's operating financial performance and liquidity.
