Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure
On March 18, 2013, Towerstream Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2012. A copy of the press release is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.1 and is being furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 and 7.01 and shall not be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing. The furnishing of the information in this Current Report on Form 8-K is not intended to, and does not, constitute a representation that such furnishing is required by Regulation FD or that the information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K constitutes material investor information that is not otherwise publicly available.
The press release includes EBITDA calculations, which is not a generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) financial measure. It is presented in the press release because the Registrant’s management uses this information in evaluating the operating efficiency and overall financial performance of its business. The Registrant’s management also believes that this information provides the users of the Registrant’s financial statements with valuable insight into its operating results. EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses, excluding when applicable, stock-based compensation, other non-operating income or expenses, non-core expenses as well as gain or loss on (i) disposal of property and equipment, (ii) nonmonetary transactions, and (iii) business acquisitions. It is important to note, however, that non-GAAP financial measures as presented do not represent cash provided by or used in operating activities and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Neither should be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA, excluding non-recurring and non-core expenses, as compared to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, net loss, is presented in a reconciliation table in the attached press release.
Any statements that are not historical facts contained in this Form 8-K are "forward-looking statements" as that term is defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (“PSLRA”) which statements may be identified by words such as "expects," "plans," "projects," "will," "may," "anticipates," "believes," "should," "intends," "estimates," and other words of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements, include certain statements regarding intent, beliefs, expectations, projections, forecasts and plans, which are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties. A number of factors described from time to time in our periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission could cause actual conditions, events, or results to differ significantly from those described in the forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements included in this Form 8-K are based on information available at the time of the report. We assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statement. We intend that all forward-looking statements be subject to the safe-harbor provisions of the PSLRA.

Management Comments
“We are pleased to report another year of solid growth and stronger operating performance,” noted Joseph Hernon, Chief Financial Officer. “We recently closed our fifth acquisition and are focused on bringing our fixed wireless business to cash flow profitability in the first half of 2013.”
“We are excited to launch our new subsidiary, Hetnets Tower Corporation, in January which will offer a wide range of shared wireless infrastructure services and access,” stated Jeffrey Thompson, President and Chief Executive Officer. “The explosion in mobile data in urban markets is driving a migration to small cell architecture, and the major carriers are presently focused on the densification of their network.”
"Our fixed wireless, backhaul network and street-level rooftop locations enables us to quickly deliver solutions to the challenges associated with small cell deployments," added Mr. Thompson.

About Hetnets Tower Corporation
Since 2010, we have been exploring opportunities to leverage our fixed wireless network in major urban markets to provide other wireless technology solutions and services. Over the past few years, a significant increase in mobile data generated by smartphones, tablets, and other devices has placed tremendous demand on the networks of the carriers. In recent months, we have concluded that the wireless communications industry is experiencing a fundamental shift from its current, macro-cellular architecture to hyper-densified Small Cell architecture where existing cell sites will be supplemented by many smaller base stations operating near street level. We believe that Wi-Fi will be an integral component of Small Cell architecture.
Hetnets plans to offer wireless technology solutions and services including (i) rental of space on street level rooftops for the installation of customer owned Small Cells which includes Wi-Fi antennae, DAS, and Metro and Pico cells, (ii) rental of a channel on Hetnets’ Wi-Fi network for the offloading of mobile data, (iii) rental of cabinets, switch ports, interconnection services, including backhaul or transport, and (iv) rental of power and power backup.

Non-GAAP Measures
The terms “Adjusted EBITDA,” “Churn,” “Churn rate,” “ARPU,” and “Market Cash Flow” are measurements used by Towerstream to monitor business performance and are not recognized measures under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Accordingly, investors are cautioned in using or relying upon these measures as alternatives to recognized GAAP measures. Our methods of calculating these measures may differ from other issuers and, accordingly, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers.
Page 3 of 9 |
We focus on Adjusted EBITDA as a principal indicator of the operating performance of our business. EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses, excluding, when applicable, stock-based compensation, other non-operating income or expenses, non-core expenses, as well as gain or loss on (i) disposal of property and equipment, (ii) nonmonetary transactions, and (iii) business acquisitions. Adjusted Market EBITDA also excludes corporate overhead expenses and other centralized costs. We believe that Adjusted Market EBITDA trends are insightful indicators of our markets’ relative performance, and whether our markets are able to produce sufficient market cash flow to fund working capital and capital expenditure needs.
The term “Core Operating Expenses” includes customer support services, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses, and excludes cost of revenues, depreciation and amortization.
The term "Non-Core Expenses" includes costs related to the our efforts to develop other wireless technology solutions and services.
The terms “Churn” and “Churn rate” refer to the percent of revenue lost on a monthly basis from customers disconnecting from our network or reducing the amount of their bandwidth. The term “ARPU” refers to the monthly average revenue per user, or customer, being generated from those customers under contract at the end of each indicated period. We calculate ARPU by dividing our monthly recurring revenue (“MRR”) at the end of a period by the number of customers generating that MRR. “ARPU of new customers” is calculated in the same manner but only includes new customers who entered into contracts during the indicated period. Market Cash Flow represents the amount of cash generated in a market after deducting a market’s direct operating expenses from that market’s revenues. Market Cash Flow does not include (i) centralized costs which support all markets collectively or (ii) any network related capital expenditures incurred in a market.
The Non-GAAP measure, Adjusted EBITDA, excluding non-recurring and non-core expenses, has been reconciled to Net loss as follows:
