Company Issues First Quarter and Full Year Guidance

The Company today issued guidance for 2014 along with its outlook for the first quarter. The Company's guidance is based on the current indications for its business, which may change at any time. The Company's full year outlook is presented below with and without consideration of the forecasted impact of the Company's acquisition of Entelios and Activation Energy. 

Recent Operational Highlights

• The Company announced its expansion into continental Europe through its acquisition of Entelios AG, a leading provider of demand response solutions headquartered in Germany. Entelios is pre-qualified to offer demand response solutions by all four transmission system operators in Germany as well as major utilities with significant presence outside of Germany.

• The Company announced its acquisition of Activation Energy, the leading provider of demand response software and services in Ireland. This acquisition gives the Company an immediate presence in the Irish capacity market and further strengthens EnerNOC's ability to deliver its full suite of energy intelligence software applications throughout Europe.

• The Company entered into a joint venture with Japan's Marubeni Corporation to provide demand response solutions in Japan. The new company is named EnerNOC Japan K.K. and has an exclusive license to market EnerNOC's DemandSMART™ cloud-based application throughout the country.

• The Company announced its investment in Genability, Inc., a San Francisco-based software company that will license its extensive database of electricity tariffs and rate engines to the Company for use in its EIS platform.

• The Company launched new features within its application that continue to strengthen the connection between energy usage and spend for customers. New features focus on enhancements to EnerNOC's EfficiencySMART™ Insight software that delivers continuous energy savings, now allowing customers to view projected energy efficiency baseline information, benchmark their buildings against similar facilities, and analyze on- versus off-peak energy usage.

• The Company dispatched its global demand response network in mid-January 2014 in response to Australia's extreme heat and the polar vortex-induced cold snap across the United States, relieving stress on the grid and underscoring the importance of demand response as a year round resource.

• The Company expanded its demand response offerings for electric utilities and retail energy suppliers. The Company introduced EnerNOC Demand Manager^TM, software-as-a-service (SaaS) that provides utilities and retailers tools to manage their own demand response programs, leveraging the Company's industry-leading technology for commercial and industrial demand response.  Several EnerNOC utility customers have already adopted and begun implementing EnerNOC Demand Manager^TM, including Louisville Gas & Electric and Kentucky Utilities Company (LG&E and KU) and ERM Power in Eastern Australia.

Statement on Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, the Company discloses certain non-GAAP measures that exclude certain amounts, including non-GAAP net (loss) income, non-GAAP net (loss) income per share, adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

The GAAP measure most comparable to non-GAAP net (loss) income is GAAP net (loss) income; the GAAP measure most comparable to non-GAAP net (loss) income per share is GAAP net (loss) income per share; the GAAP measure most comparable to adjusted EBITDA is GAAP net (loss) income; and the GAAP measure most comparable to free cash flow is cash flows provided by operating activities. Reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measures are included below.

Management uses these non-GAAP measures when evaluating the Company's operating performance and for internal planning and forecasting purposes.  Management believes that such measures help indicate underlying trends in the business, are important in comparing current results with prior period results, and are useful to investors and financial analysts in assessing the Company's operating performance. For example, management considers non-GAAP net (loss) income to be an important indicator of the overall performance because it eliminates the effects of events that are either not part of the Company's core operations or are non-cash compensation expenses. In addition, management considers adjusted EBITDA to be an important indicator of the Company's operational strength and performance of the business and a good measure of the Company's historical operating trend. Moreover, management considers free cash flow to be an indicator of the Company's operating trend and performance of the business.

The following is an explanation of the non-GAAP measures that management utilizes, including the adjustments that management excluded as part of the non-GAAP measures for the three and twelve month periods ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, as well as reasons for excluding these individual items:

• Management defines non-GAAP net (loss) income as net (loss) income before expenses related to stock-based compensation and amortization expenses related to acquisition-related intangible assets, net of related tax effects.

• Management defines adjusted EBITDA as net (loss) income, excluding depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, interest, income taxes and other (expense) income, net. Adjusted EBITDA eliminates items that are either not part of the Company's core operations or do not require a cash outlay, such as stock-based compensation. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes depreciation and amortization expense, which is based on management's estimate of the useful life of tangible and intangible assets. These estimates could vary from actual performance of the asset, are based on historical cost incurred to build out the Company's deployed network and may not be indicative of current or future capital expenditures.

• Management defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Management defines capital expenditures as purchases of property and equipment, which includes capitalization of internal-use software development costs.

Non-GAAP net (loss) income, non-GAAP net (loss) income per share, adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow may have limitations as analytical tools. The non-GAAP financial information presented here should be considered in conjunction with, and not as a substitute for or superior to the financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered measures of the Company's liquidity. There are significant limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures. Further, these measures may differ from the non-GAAP information, even where similarly titled, used by other companies and therefore should not be used to compare the Company's performance to that of other companies.
