Support.com, Inc. ( For the second quarter of 2010, total revenue was $9.9 million, compared to $3.4 million in the second quarter of 2009 and $9.9 million in the first quarter of 2010. Second quarter 2010 revenue consisted of $6.9 million in services revenue and $3.0 million in software and other revenue. On a GAAP basis, net loss from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2010 was $6.2 million, or $(0.13) per share, compared to $4.2 million, or $(0.09) per share, in the second quarter of 2009, and $4.2 million, or $(0.09) per share, in the first quarter of 2010. Non-GAAP net loss from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2010 was $5.1 million, or $(0.11) per share, compared to $6.1 million, or $(0.13) per share, in the second quarter of 2009, and $3.2 million, or $(0.07) per share, in the first quarter of 2010. Non-GAAP results exclude stock-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and impairment charges, and the income tax impact of the disposition of business units on continuing operations. These items impacted results from continuing operations by $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2010, $(1.8) million in the second quarter of 2009, and $944,000 in the first quarter of 2010. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results is presented in the tables below. "In the second quarter, we staffed up to roll out new programs that will contribute substantially to future growth," said Josh Pickus, President and Chief Executive Officer of Support.com. "Revenue took longer than expected to ramp, adversely affecting our results. Looking forward, we believe the investment to ensure superior customer experience in the early stages of programs will drive long-term success for both our partners and the Company."

Note on Forward-Looking Statements Statements made in this document that are not historical facts are "forward-looking statements" and accordingly involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described herein. Forward-looking statements include, for example, all statements relating to projected financial performance (including without limitation statements involving projections of revenue, margin, income (loss), earnings (loss) per share, cash usage, capital structure, or other financial items); the plans and objectives of management for future operations, products or services; and future performance in economic and other terms. The potential risks and uncertainties that could cause results to differ materially include, among others, our ability to retain and grow major partnerships, our ability to maintain and grow revenue, our ability to scale our workforce, our ability to control expenses and achieve profitability, and our ability to successfully integrate acquired products and services. These and other risks are detailed in Support.com's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including without limitation its latest Annual Report on Form 10-K and its latest quarterly report on Form 10-Q, copies of which may be obtained from www.sec.gov.

Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures Support.com has excluded stock-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and impairment charges, and the income tax impact of the disposition of business units on continuing operations from its GAAP results in order to determine the non-GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) per share referenced in this document. We believe that the non-GAAP measure, when viewed in addition to and not in lieu of our reported GAAP results, assists investors in understanding our results of operations. A. Stock-based compensation. Management excludes stock-based compensation expenses when evaluating its performance from period to period because such expenses do not require cash settlement and because such expenses are not used by management to assess the performance of the Company's business. Stock-based compensation expense was $1.0 million in the second quarter of 2010, compared to $634,000 in the second quarter of 2009 and $856,000 in the first quarter of 2010. B. Amortization of intangible assets. The Company does not acquire businesses on a predictable cycle; therefore management excludes acquisition-related intangible asset amortization and related charges when evaluating its operating performance. The Company also excludes such charges as they represent non-cash expenses. Amortization expense was $93,000 in the second quarter of 2010, compared to $42,000 in the second quarter of 2009 and $88,000 in the first quarter of 2010. C. Restructuring and impairment charges. The Company does not undertake significant restructurings on a predictable basis and, as result, excludes associated charges in order to enable better and more consistent evaluation of the Company's operating expenses before and after such actions are taken. Restructuring and impairment expense was zero in the second quarter of 2010, compared to $328,000 in the second quarter of 2009 and zero in the first quarter of 2010. D. Income tax impact of disposition of business units. The Company excludes the income tax impact of the disposition of business units when evaluating the performance of its continuing operations, because this tax impact is not a result of the Company's continuing operations. The income tax benefit related to the disposal of business units was zero in the second quarter of 2010, compared to $2.8 million in the second quarter of 2009 and zero in the first quarter of 2010. The Company believes that non-GAAP measures have significant limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company's financial results as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate the Company's financial results in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. In addition, the exclusion of the charges and expenses indicated above from the non-GAAP financial measures presented does not indicate an expectation by management that such charges and expenses will not be incurred in subsequent periods.

Note 1: The adjustments above reconcile the Company's GAAP financial
results to the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company. The
Company's non-GAAP financial measures exclude restructuring charges,
stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, and the
income tax benefit from the sale of the Enterprise business from the
GAAP financial results. The Company believes that the presentation of
these non-GAAP items provides meaningful supplemental information to
investors, when viewed in conjunction with, and not in lieu of, the
Company's GAAP results. However, the non-GAAP financial measures have
not been prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules or
principles. Non-GAAP information should not be considered in isolation
from, or as a substitute for, information prepared in accordance with
GAAP. Moreover, there are material limitations associated with the use
of non-GAAP financial measures. See the text of this press release for
more information on non-GAAP financial measures.
2010 amounts are subject to completion of management's and its
independent registered public accounting firm's customary closing and
review procedures.
Note 2: Amounts are reclassified to conform to current presentation
from reviewed financial statements.
