Item 2.02. Results of Operation and Financial Results.

On August 14, 2009, Purple Communications, Inc. issued a press release announcing its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

In its press release dated August 14, 2009, the Registrant used a non-GAAP financial measure in the form of adjusted EBITDA:

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income, plus income taxes, net interest expense, depreciation, amortization and specific non-recurring charges pursuant to our credit agreements. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flows from operations, cash flows from investing or cash flows from financing activities as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow or a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to net earnings (loss) as indicative of operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is included because we believe that investors find it a useful tool for measuring our ability to service our debt.

For the six month period ending June 30, 2009, Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled to cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities, the most comparable measure under generally accepted accounting principles as follows:

 

Net Cash Flow from Operating Activities to Adjusted EBITDA:   

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities

   $ 0.2

Provision for Income Taxes

     0.5

Interest Expense, net

     2.9

Other, net

     5.3
      
Adjusted EBITDA    $ 8.9

Certain amounts have been aggregated to conform to the current presentation.

The information in this report, including the exhibit attached hereto, is intended to be furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of or otherwise subject to liabilities under Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into the filings of the company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
