Third quarter revenue was up 32% versus the same quarter last year, and up 7% versus the second fiscal quarter of 2003. In addition, the company reported an increase in customer acquisition during the third quarter, particularly with higher value Power Plan customers.

Thinkpad Total Company revenue came in below DoubleClick's previously issued outlook, primarily due to year-over-year declines in revenue from its Abacus and Ad Management divisions. These declines were mainly a result of lower-than-anticipated mailings by customers in the U.S. retail business-to-consumer (B-to-C) Abacus Alliance and continued softness in the Publisher portion of DoubleClick's Ad Management business. Due to an increase in planned investments in its businesses, coupled with lowered growth expectations in Abacus and Ad Management, the Company now expects revenue and net income for the full year 2004 to be below previous guidance.

Hard Drive TechSolutions
The TechSolutions segment reported second quarter revenue of $46.4 million versus $43.5 million in 2Q03. The 2Q04 figure includes Marketing Resource Management (MRM) sales because of DoubleClick's acquisition of SmartPath, Inc. in 1Q04. Overall TechSolutions gross margins were 73.0%, an increase from 61.9% in the June quarter of 2003. Overall TechSolutions operating margins were 20.6%, an increase from 9.3% in the second quarter of 2003.

Travelstar The year-over-year improvement in TechSolutions revenue was a result of an increase in Marketing Automation revenue more than offsetting a decline in Ad Management revenue. TechSolutions gross margins and operating margins improved primarily because of decreases in cost of revenue and operating expenses in both Ad Management and Marketing Automation.

Gateway The Company's Ad Management revenue was $31.8 million in 2Q04 versus $32.6 million in the year-ago period. The year-over-year revenue decline occurred mainly because the increase in revenue from Advertiser customers and the addition of sales from the Company's new Rich Media solution did not outweigh lower-than-expected aggregate revenue from Publisher clients.

Laptop Parts DoubleClick has signed several new contracts for use of its ad serving and/or Rich Media solutions since April 1, 2004. Recent wins include About.com, Lemontonic, Publicis, SI.com, UNext, Washington Post, and Weather.com.

Software The Company's Marketing Automation products had revenues of $14.6 million in the most recent quarter, against $10.9 million in 2Q03. Organic revenue in this division rose at double-digit rates primarily due to new customer acquisition. In addition, the Company's Marketing Automation results improved because they now include MRM sales. New Marketing Automation agreements have been reached with clients including A&E Television, Folksam, and Ingram Industries.

Hard Drives "We are particularly pleased with the recent progress we have seen in the email portion of our Marketing Automation division. This business had positive operating income in 2Q04, and with top line up 12%, this was the first quarter since 2002 in which we have seen double-digit increases in year-over-year email revenue," said David Rosenblatt, President of DoubleClick. "We continue to offer both bundled and stand-alone solutions to our clients, and this approach has enabled us to have better than 95% average client retention among our top Ad Management and Marketing Automation customers over the past year."

Electronics On June 24, 2004, DoubleClick completed its acquisition of Performics Inc., a privately-held search engine marketing and affiliate marketing company based in Chicago. The results for Performics will be reported as a third division of TechSolutions, and will be included in DoubleClick's 3Q04 consolidated statements of operations. DoubleClick has reflected this acquisition on its balance sheet as of June 30, 2004.

Canon Performics helps clients automate their paid placement, paid inclusion, and comparison shopping listings across multiple search providers and publishers. Performics also provides the infrastructure for affiliate marketing, through which marketers manage, track, and report on their offers across multiple affiliate sites. The 200-plus Performics client roster includes America Online, Bose, Eddie Bauer, HP Shopping, Kohls, L.L.Bean, Motorola, Northern Tool, Target, and Williams-Sonoma. DoubleClick has already begun selling Performics's solutions as stand-alone offerings to its existing customer base, and plans to integrate its search tool with existing Ad Management solutions.

Desktop Pc Data
DoubleClick reported Data revenue of $22.8 million in 2Q04, up 13.4% from $20.1 million in 2Q03. The Data segment's top line increased because the inclusion of Data Management sales more than offset the drop in Abacus revenue. DoubleClick acquired its Data Management business on June 30, 2003, and began recognizing revenue for the division in 3Q03. Abacus quarterly revenue declined by 2.4% year-over-year, to $19.6 million. Data Management recorded $3.2 million in revenue for 2Q04. Overall Data gross margins were 59.2% for the quarter, against 70.7% for 2Q03. Data operating margins were 10.4%, versus 29.2% in last year's June quarter.

Desktop Computers The year-over-year decrease in Abacus revenue stemmed mainly from continued sluggishness in the U.S. B-to-C catalogue market leading to fewer mailings from large Abacus customers. The U.S. Business-to-Business (B-to-B) and International Alliances continued to see double-digit revenue increases. Quarterly Data segment gross and operating margins declined year-over-year primarily because of the decline in B-to-C revenue and because a greater percentage of Data sales came from the segment's smaller and relatively fast growing, but lower margin businesses.

Think Pad During the quarter, DoubleClick added 30 net new Abacus Alliance members globally. This figure includes new Alliance members in the US, the UK, Australia, and Japan.

Repair Revised 2004 Outlook
DoubleClick is adjusting its full-year 2004 outlook due to lower-than anticipated results from its Abacus B-to-C Alliance and the Publisher portion of its Ad Management division. DoubleClick believes that the recent addition of Performics will partially offset its reduced Abacus and Ad Management revenue outlook. The Company expects the acquisition to reduce GAAP net income by $0.01 per share in 2004 due to integration costs and amortization of intangibles. DoubleClick believes that the acquisition will be immediately accretive in terms of EBITDA, and that it will be accretive to EBITDA and GAAP net income in 2005. Finally, the Company intends to increase spending in several key businesses, particularly in Ad Management, because the Company believes that additional investment in these areas is critical to improve growth in its core businesses.
