Thursday October 23, 2008 4:00 pm ET

Revenue Increases 23% Compared to the Second Quarter of 2008, 134% Compared to the Third Quarter of 2007

SANTA CLARA, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Oct 23, 2008 -- Data Domain, Inc. (NasdaqGM:DDUP - News) today announced results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2008. Net revenue for the third quarter of 2008 was $75.0 million, an increase of 23% from the second quarter of 2008 and an increase of 134% from the third quarter of 2007.

Under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), Data Domain posted net income of $3.2 million for the third quarter of 2008, or $0.05 per diluted share. This compares to GAAP net income of $1.7 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2008, and a GAAP net loss of $0.9 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2007.

Excluding the impact of stock-based compensation and related taxes in all periods, non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2008 was $8.1 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $6.5 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2008, and non-GAAP net income of $2.6 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2007.

"Our results for the third quarter of 2008 included record revenues, strong gross margins and significant growth in our customer base," said Frank Slootman, president and chief executive officer of Data Domain. "A record 355 new customers were added during this past quarter, bringing Data Domain's cumulative customer count to over 2,500 worldwide that have purchased our products since 2004. Demand continued to accelerate for the DD690, which we announced in May as the industry's highest performance inline deduplication storage system for backup and other nearline applications. In addition, we noted expanded use of our systems for mixed storage applications such as archiving."

"Data Domain has again exceeded its plan, beating its revenue targets for the quarter, while continuing to invest in its infrastructure for growth," added Michael Scarpelli, chief financial officer for Data Domain. "GAAP net income was $3.2 million and gross margins were strong at 72%. In addition, we achieved operating profit while hiring an additional 91 employees, bringing total headcount to 705, and we added approximately $22 million to operating cash flow in the quarter."

Financial Outlook

 
--  We estimate revenues for the fourth quarter of 2008 to be between $80
    million and $84 million.

--  We estimate that for the fourth quarter of 2008 GAAP earnings per diluted
    share will be approximately $0.01 to $0.03 and non-GAAP earnings per share
    will range from $0.09 to $0.11. The non-GAAP earnings per share projections
    exclude stock-based compensation expense that we estimate will be in the
    range of $6.4 million to $6.6 million as well as tax benefits that we
    estimate will be in the range of $900,000 to $1.0 million related to stock-
    based compensation.

--  We estimate revenues for the full year of 2008 will be between $269
    million and $273 million, up from our previous estimate of $250 million to
    $255 million.

Third Quarter Highlights

 
--  During the quarter, we announced multiple new technology partnerships with
    leading eDiscovery, archiving and file virtualization vendors. The new
    partnerships underscore the flexibility of Data Domain systems to be
    applied broadly in mixed storage environments.

--  We also announced new managed services partner agreements with companies
    that offer outsourced disaster recovery services, reflecting another market
    that can benefit from the cost efficiencies that can be achieved with Data
    Domain systems. These service providers leverage our network-efficient
    replication to reduce the delivery costs of the disaster recovery services.

--  During the quarter, we noted strong penetration of the financial and
    government vertical markets. These customers are typically large enterprise
    data centers that require the high performance characteristics of systems
    like the DD690 and the platform stability that Data Domain delivers.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

Data Domain has supplemented the financial measures contained in this press release that are provided in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") with non-GAAP financial measures. Data Domain believes that these non-GAAP financial measures better reflect its core operating results and thus are appropriate to enhance the overall understanding of its past financial performance and its prospects for the future. These adjustments to Data Domain's GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of Data Domain's underlying operational results and trends and performance. Management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate Data Domain's financial results, develop budgets and manage expenditures. The method Data Domain uses to produce non-GAAP financial results may differ from the methods used by other companies. Data Domain's reference to these non-GAAP financial results should be considered in addition to results that are prepared under current accounting standards but should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial results that are presented as consistent with GAAP. Reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest GAAP financial measures is included in the financial measures attached hereto.
