PGi Reports Third Quarter 2011 Results: Revenues Grew Nearly 9% to $119.2M, Non-GAAP Diluted EPS from Continuing Operations $0.18*

Company Raises 2011 Financial Outlook

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--October 20, 2011--Premiere Global Services, Inc. (NYSE: PGI), a global leader in virtual meetings, today announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2011.

In the third quarter of 2011, net revenues increased 8.8% to $119.2 million, compared to $109.5 million in the third quarter of 2010. Diluted EPS from continuing operations was $0.12 and non-GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations was $0.18* in the third quarter of 2011, compared to diluted EPS from continuing operations of $0.02 and non-GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations of $0.12* in the third quarter of 2010. Results for 2010 are reclassified to reflect the PGiSend business as discontinued operations, as it was sold in October 2010.

“We remain pleased with the overall performance of our global business,” said Boland T. Jones, PGi founder, chairman and CEO, who is leading the company’s next-generation product innovation. “We’ve seen increasing enterprise momentum with our new products, iMeet^® and GlobalMeet^®, and our sales pipelines continue to grow. Despite renewed global economic uncertainty, our outlook for the remainder of the year remains strong.”

Nine Month Results

In the first nine months of 2011, net revenues increased 6.7% to $355.1 million, compared to $332.9 million in the first nine months of 2010. Diluted EPS from continuing operations was $0.27 and non-GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations was $0.44* in the first nine months of 2011, compared to diluted EPS from continuing operations of $0.17 and non-GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations of $0.41* in the first nine months of 2010.

Financial Outlook

The following statements are based on PGi’s current expectations. These statements contain forward-looking statements and company estimates, and actual results may differ materially. PGi assumes no duty to update any forward-looking statements made in this press release.

Based on the strength of its third quarter results and current trends in its business, PGi increased its financial outlook for 2011. Based on current trends and foreign currency exchange rates, PGi now anticipates net revenues from continuing operations in 2011 will be in the range of $469-$472 million and non-GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations will be in the range of $0.61-$0.62*, including marketing and advertising costs associated with the launch of our new virtual meetings solutions.

PGi will host a conference call today at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, to discuss these results. To participate in the call, please dial-in to the appropriate number 5-10 minutes prior to the scheduled start time: (888) 256-9022 (U.S. and Canada) or (913) 312-1483 (International).

(1	)	Management believes that presenting non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income from continuing operations and non-GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations provide useful information regarding underlying trends in the company's continuing operations. Management expects equity-based compensation and amortization expenses to be recurring costs and presents non-GAAP net income from continuing operations and non-GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations to exclude these non-cash items as well as non-recurring items that are unrelated to the company's ongoing operations, including non-recurring tax adjustments, unrealized gain on change in fair value of interest rate swaps, restructuring costs, excise and sales tax expense and interest, asset impairments, net legal settlements and related expenses, acquisition-related costs, non-recurring foreign exchange losses and debt refinance costs. These non-cash and non-recurring items are presented net of taxes for non-GAAP net income from continuing operations and non-GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations.
(2	)	Column totals do not sum due to the effect of rounding on EPS.
