Exhibit 99.1
QuinStreet Reports Financial Results for Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2015
FOSTER CITY, CA – MAY 5, 2015 — QuinStreet, Inc. (Nasdaq: QNST), a leader in performance marketing online, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended March 31, 2015.
For the third quarter, the Company reported total revenue of $75.3 million, an increase of 5% compared to the same quarter last year. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $4.3 million, or 6% of revenue. Revenue and adjusted EBITDA were positively impacted by $1.6 million and $1.3 million respectively, due to recognition of revenue previously deferred in the September quarter.
Adjusted net income for the third quarter was $1.4 million, or $0.03 per share, and GAAP net loss was $3.2 million, or ($0.07) per share. Adjusted net income excludes stock-based compensation expense and amortization of intangible assets, net of estimated tax.
The Company generated $2.4 million in normalized free cash flow in the quarter and closed the third quarter with $114 million in cash and marketable securities and $50 million in net cash.
“We continue to see improving results from strong execution of our strategies to roll out next-generation products and technologies and to diversify media and markets,” commented Doug Valenti, QuinStreet CEO. “Revenue from new products and markets in the Education client vertical grew strongly in the quarter, offsetting declines in traditional lead generation products to U.S. for-profit colleges. As a result, Education revenue was flat in the quarter — our best year-over-year performance in that client vertical in over three years. Revenue from our auto insurance business increased 25% year-over-year, driven by the continued adoption and ramp of the new products launched last year. We continue to be cash flow positive, and our balance sheet remains strong.
“Revenue in the June quarter is expected to be up again, with growth estimated to be approximately 5% year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA margin is expected to be in the low single digits, as we continue to invest in growth initiatives. The initiatives are providing us with a fundamentally improved business base and roadmap that we expect to result in long-term growth and margin re-expansion,” concluded Valenti.
Reconciliations of adjusted net income to net loss, adjusted EBITDA to net loss and normalized free cash flow to net cash provided by operating activities are included in the accompanying tables.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release and the accompanying tables include a discussion of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted net income per share, free cash flow and normalized free cash flow, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures that are provided as a complement to results provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The term “adjusted EBITDA” refers to a financial measure that we define as net loss less benefit from (provision for) taxes, depreciation expense, amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, interest and other income (expense), net, impairment of goodwill, and restructuring. The term “adjusted net income” refers to a financial measure that we define as net loss adjusted for amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring expense, impairment of goodwill and tax valuation allowance, net of estimated taxes. The term “adjusted diluted net income per share” refers to a financial measure that we define as adjusted net income divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. The term “free cash flow” refers to a financial measure that we define as net cash provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures and internal software development costs. “Normalized free cash flow” refers to free cash flow less changes in operating assets and liabilities net of estimated taxes related to impairment of goodwill, tax valuation allowance and the impact from excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. In addition, our definition of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted net income per share, free cash flow and normalized free cash flow may not be comparable to the definitions as reported by other companies.
We believe adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted net income per share, free cash flow and normalized free cash flow are relevant and useful information because they provide us and investors with additional measurements to analyze the Company’s operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is part of our internal management reporting and planning process and one of the primary measures used by our management to evaluate the operating performance of our business, as well as potential acquisitions. Adjusted EBITDA is useful to us and investors because it provides information related to the Company’s ability to provide cash flow for acquisitions, capital expenditures and working capital requirements. Internally, adjusted EBITDA is used by management for planning purposes, including preparation of internal budgets; to allocate resources; to evaluate the effectiveness of operational strategies; and to evaluate the Company’s capacity to fund acquisitions and capital expenditures as well as the capacity to service debt. Adjusted EBITDA is used as a key financial metric in senior management’s annual incentive compensation program. The Company believes that analysts and investors use adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measurement to evaluate the overall operating performance of companies in its industry and use adjusted EBITDA multiples as a metric for analyzing company valuations. It is also an element of certain maintenance covenants under our debt agreements.
Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted net income per share are useful to us and investors because they present an additional measurement of our financial performance, taking into account depreciation, which we believe is an ongoing cost of doing business, but excluding the impact of certain non-cash expenses (stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, impairment of goodwill and tax valuation allowance). The Company believes that analysts and investors use adjusted net income and adjusted diluted net income per share as supplemental measures to evaluate the overall operating performance of companies in our industry.
Free cash flow is useful to investors and us because it represents the cash that our business generates from operations, before taking into account cash movements that are non-operational, and is a metric commonly used in our industry to understand the underlying cash generating capacity of a company’s financial model. Normalized free cash flow is useful as it removes the fluctuations in operating assets and liabilities that occur in any given quarter due to the timing of payments and therefore helps investors understand the underlying cash flow of the business as a quarterly metric and the cash flow generation potential of the business model. The Company believes that analysts and investors use free cash flow multiples as a metric for analyzing company valuations in our industry.
We intend to provide these non-GAAP financial measures as part of our future earnings discussions and, therefore, the inclusion of these non-GAAP financial measures will provide consistency in our financial reporting. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to GAAP is provided in the accompanying tables.
