Laptop Battery New York, 1/6/2005 - DoubleClick Inc. (NASDAQ: DCLK), the leading provider of data and technology solutions for marketers, advertising agencies and web publishers, today announced that it has revised guidance for the fourth quarter and full year 2004 in order to reflect better than anticipated revenue generation in the TechSolutions segment. The Company is also adjusting guidance to reflect a higher diluted share count as required under FASB EITF Issue No. 04-8.
Company Raises Revenue Expectations Due to higher than projected revenue from its Performics, Ad Management, and Email products, DoubleClick now expects that fourth quarter revenue from its TechSolutions segment will be $6 million to $7 million higher than the mid-point of its previous guidance range. Data segment revenue is expected to be within a narrower range than indicated in the previous outlook. These figures are preliminary. The Company plans to report final fourth quarter and full year 2004 results on February 3, 2005.

Microsoft New GAAP Rules on Contingent Convertibles Under FASB EITF Issue No. 04-8, "The Effect of Contingently Convertible Instruments on Diluted Earnings per Share, DoubleClicks Zero Coupon Convertible Subordinated notes will be included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share regardless of whether any of the conversion contingencies have been met.

For the fourth quarter of 2003, the company expects revenue to be approximately $5.6 million. Gross margin is expected to be in the mid 50% range. Total operating expense for the fourth quarter is expected to increase by approximately two million from the third quarter level due to an anticipated increase in fourth quarter general and administrative expense, and due to plans to increase fourth quarter sales and marketing spend. On a per share basis, fourth quarter 2003 GAAP net income is expected to be a loss of approximately nine cents per share. For the full fiscal year 2004, the company expects total revenue to increase approximately 25% over 2003 levels, gross margin is expected to be approximately sixty percent, and total net loss is expected to be approximately $0.20 per share.

No restatement will be necessary for periods prior to January 1, 2003, because the 4.75% Notes would have been anti-dilutive.
