"We are pleased with our strong first quarter results, which reflect our
increased presence in our retail channel, the expansion of our product
offerings, and the underlying phenomenal demand for smartphones and
tablets," said Robert G. Pedersen II, CEO of ZAGG. "The operational
alignments we have put in place helped our results in the quarter. We
are seeing a tremendous level of employee unity and successful
integration with iFrogz into our company, which is translating into
improved sales, operational and financial performance of our business."
First Quarter Results
Consolidated revenue for the first quarter of 2012 increased 106% to
$55.5 million from $27.0 million in the same quarter last year. Revenue
by channel was 83% through indirect channels, 10% through ZAGG.com and
iFrogz.com, 6% through the company's mall cart and kiosk programs, and
1% from shipping and handling.
Gross profit for the first quarter of 2012 was $26.9 million or 48.5% of
net sales, representing a 97% increase, versus $13.6 million or 51% of
net sales in the first quarter of the prior year.
Operating income for the first quarter of 2012 was $10.2 million
compared to $4.9 million for the first quarter of 2011, an increase of
110%.
Net income attributable to stockholders for the first quarter of 2012
was $5.1 million or $0.16 per diluted share as compared to net income
attributable to stockholders of $3.3 million or $0.13 per diluted share
in the first quarter of 2011.
Adjusted EBITDA
ZAGG considers earnings before other income or expense; income tax
provision; depreciation and amortization; and share-based compensation
expense related to equity awards ("Adjusted EBITDA") to be an important
financial indicator of the Company's operational strength and the
performance of its business. These results should be considered in
addition to results prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP"), but should not be considered as a
substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results.
A reconciliation of the differences between Adjusted EBITDA and the most
comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with
GAAP, is presented under the heading "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP
Financial Information to GAAP" immediately following the Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Operations included below.
The difference between Adjusted EBITDA per share, a non-GAAP measure,
and GAAP EPS, is other income or expense, income tax provision,
depreciation and amortization, and share-based compensation.
Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2012 was $14.4 million versus
$5.4 million in the first quarter of 2011, representing an increase of
166% over prior year's results, or $0.46 per diluted share versus $0.21
per diluted share in the first quarter last year.
Outlook
ZAGG reiterates its full year guidance for 2012 revenue in excess of
$250 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $55 million -- $60 million. This
compares to reported revenue for 2011 of $179.1 million and Adjusted
EBITDA of $45.3 million.
Conference Call
A conference call will be held today at 5:00 p.m. EDT to review these
results. Participants may access via the Internet at the
event website and on the Company website at: http://investors.zagg.com.
The call replay will be available for 30 days, and can be accessed

webcast playback of the conference call will be archived investors.ZAGG.com

Non-GAAP Financial Disclosure
Investors are cautioned that the Adjusted EBITDA, or earnings before
other income or expense, income tax provision, depreciation and
amortization, and stock-based compensation, contained in this press
release are not financial measures under generally accepted accounting
principles. In addition, they should not be construed as alternatives to
any other measures of performance determined in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, or as indicators of our
operating performance, liquidity or cash flows generated by operating,
investing and financing activities, as there may be significant factors
or trends that they fail to address. We present this financial
information because we believe that it is helpful to some investors as a
measure of our performance. We caution investors that non-GAAP financial
information, by its nature, departs from traditional accounting
conventions; accordingly, its use can make it difficult to compare our
current results with our results from other reporting periods and with
the results of other companies.

Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and such
forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor
provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

that such statements are subject to a multitude of risks and
uncertainties that could cause future circumstances, events, or results
