Riverbed Business Update – Application Acceleration

SUMMARY DESCRIPTION

Includes the following products:

Steelhead (WAN optimization)

Granite (branch converged infrastructure)

Stingray (application delivery controller)

Whitewater (cloud storage appliance)

Growth concerns around portfolio of products

COMMENTARY

While a leader in WAN optimization, growth has slowed for Riverbed and the broader market. The Company faces:

Headwinds due to evolving protocol technologies

Commoditization risks

Difficulty in gaining additional market share given Riverbed already has significant share

WAN optimization continues to be influenced by:

Data center consolidation

Cloud computing

While the ADC market is expected to grow, Riverbed has a small ADC business with low overall market share. The ADC business:

Is a smaller contributor to the top-line

Has experienced recent quarterly flatness

Riverbed Business Update – Performance Management

SUMMARY DESCRIPTION

Products consist of application-aware NPM and APM solutions

Vast percentage of this portfolio was acquired with very little connection to the WAN optimization business

OPNET acquisition (12/12, $994mm) provided Riverbed access into the APM space

Riverbed entered the NPM market via its Mazu Networks acquisition (02/09, $50mm)

The Company also acquired CACE Technologies (10/10)1

COMMENTARY

Performance Management is expected to be a major growth driver for the overall business; however, growth since the OPNET acquisition has slowed considerably

The Company has had execution challenges following the transaction

Riverbed Observations and Challenges

1 Challenging WAN optimization market outlook

Core WAN optimization market is a ~$1bn annual opportunity growing at only a 1% CAGR1

Given Riverbed’s considerable market share, future market share gains may become more difficult to achieve

Market growth is being negatively affected by native application and simplified remote access protocols, which are impacting the need for Riverbed and others’ acceleration products

WAN optimization has a significant influence on Riverbed’s overall growth given that 71% of Riverbed’s total 2013 revenue was from WAN optimization

2 Expensive and complex OPNET transaction

Riverbed overpaid relative to comparable transactions for OPNET, which has had performance issues post acquisition close

Following the acquisition, overall Company EBIT margins have contracted

Completion of sales force integration missed initial targets

3 Status quo value proposition not comparable or superior to the transaction price offered

The OPNET transaction has not delivered sufficient returns to shareholders given the expensive price that was paid

Riverbed, as a standalone public company, is facing a number of near-term structural issues:

Heavy exposure to the government vertical, with federal budget as a concern

Analysts are predicting that the WAN optimization market will undergo a transition from hardware to converged software solutions, which could negatively impact ASPs

With the exception of Performance Management, most new products outside of WAN optimization are subscale

Numerous analysts are predicting a stock price decline if Elliott or other interested parties are not allowed the opportunity to pursue a transaction

Wall Street Analyst Observations

The feedback from the analyst community clearly states the current strategic interest from Elliott is supporting Riverbed’s current stock price. In addition, there is analyst support for pursuing a strategic dialogue with Elliott

SUMMARY OF SELECTED EQUITY RESEARCH

Broker Commentary

“Elliott raised its bid to $21/share in cash…We continue to see this as a fair deal for investors considering the flat trajectory of the

core WANOP business and unproven results in opportunities like Granite.”

February Rod Hall, 25, CFA 2014

“The highlight of the quarter was Riverbed’s Performance Management business, which grew 22% sequentially and returned to sales

levels from the time of the OPNET acquisition. While we were encouraged to see notable progress on the integration of OPNET, we

believe much of Riverbed’s valuation…is still driven off of acquisition prospects...”

February Erik Suppiger 3, 2014

“While we understand that other parties have indicated interest in acquiring Riverbed, we don’t view the Company as a strategic

asset and question why the valuation would expand materially above $20. Before Elliott’s involvement, the stock was trading at

~$15 or about 2.2x revs. We see downside risk if Elliott does not continue to pursue an acquisition of Riverbed and the valuation

Jonathan January Ruykhaver, 31, 2014 CFA becomes driven more by near-term fundamentals.”

“Riverbed’s stock, in our view, reflects potential for a slight bid up from Elliott vs. the underlying fundamentals (the stock move

from $13-14 levels pre-Elliott to current $19-20 levels mostly reflect the activist interest in acquiring the company)…we see risks

skewed to the downside—if Elliott were to withdraw their interest or if RVBD fails to execute to their 10% CY14 rev growth target.”

January Brian Modoff 31, 2014

“We are a bit skeptical, but admit the revenue comps become less challenging in the out quarters. All things considered, including

the Elliott-driven takeout premium implied in the current share price, we are comfortable with our HOLD rating and $20 target.”

Eric January Martinuzzi, 31, 2014 CFA

“With our estimates generally consistent with company expectations for the year, and with the recent re-rating in the stock

(following Elliott taking a stake and subsequently making a $19/share buyout offer), we find the risk-reward balanced with

limited upside.”
