EXHIBIT 1
RECORD $6.4 MILLION REVENUES, ALL PROFIT MARGINS UP, WITH $1.4 MILLION
NET INCOME IN FIRST QUARTER OF 2009
Increasing Profit Guidance for 2009
TEL AVIV, ISRAEL May 4, 2009 IncrediMail Ltd. (NASDAQ: MAIL, www.incredimail-corp.com), an Internet company, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2009.
Total revenue for the first quarter of 2009 rose $1.6 million, or 34%, to $6.4 million, from $4.8 million in the same quarter in 2008. Net income for the first quarter of 2009 was $1.4 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $0.7 million, or ($0.07) per diluted share from the same period last year. Non-GAAP net income in the first quarter of 2009 increased more than three-fold, reaching $1.6 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, compared to $0.5 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, from the same period last year.
Commenting on the results, Mr. Ofer Adler, IncrediMails CEO, said, We succeeded in growing our revenues by over 30% this quarter. Although traditionally lower than the fourth quarter, the first quarter saw record revenue as we realized the full benefit of our refocused business activities from initiatives that we put into place in 2008. In particular, our search initiatives generated the overall increase in revenue in the first quarter.
Additionally, our streamlining activities that also commenced in 2008, helped to produce EBITDA of $2.7 million, operating income of $2.5 million, or 39% of sales, and record net income of $1.4 million. We were able to achieve all this despite a $0.4 million finance expenses and a higher tax rate related to our recently instituted dividend policy.
No company is recession proof, and IncrediMail is also experiencing downward pressure because of the negative economic climate. This was felt in product sales and CPC rates in our search related revenues as advertisers spent less, and consumers reduced their purchases during these poor economic times. This climate continues to present challenges not only to IncrediMail, but to a substantial number of businesses around the world.
Nonetheless, even in this challenging environment, we were encouraged by our strong first quarter and we continue to believe that we will be able to attain $25 million in revenues during 2009. We believe this is achievable through volume: increased queries offsetting the decrease in the average revenue per query. Moreover, we believe that given our current cost structure, we can increase our guidance for operating income to $7 million in 2009. As for net income, we cannot pinpoint a number as this metric is impacted by various items including, among other things, financial income and expenses, exchange rate fluctuations, as well as our effective tax rate, which is affected by our dividend policy and its implementation.
Gross profit increased 39% to $6.0 million in the first quarter of 2009, from $4.3 million reported the first quarter last year. This increase was due to the increase in revenues and an increase in gross profit margin to 94% from 91% in the first quarter of 2008. The increased profitability was due to the growing portion of revenues attributable to search, which accounted for over 70% of revenues and have no direct costs associated with them.

Total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2009 were $3.5 million, down $1.7 million, or 32%, compared to $5.2 million in the first quarter last year. More than half of this decrease was from the reduction of ongoing operating expenses, while the remaining reduction was attributable to other one time charges in the first quarter of 2008.
R&D expense decreased 34%, to $1.4 million in the first quarter of 2009 from $2.0 million in the same quarter last year. The decrease was primarily a result of focusing development efforts on IncrediMails current suite of products and the search business model. Within a few months, the Company expects to release a completely new version of its email product that is feature rich with advanced functions. In addition, IncrediMail expects to release new versions of its HiYo instant messaging tool, tailoring it to more platforms, during this year as well.
Sales and Marketing expenses were $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2009, similar to those in the first quarter of 2008. This reflects the Companys continued effort to broaden its market and user base, having invested $0.5 million in customer acquisition expenses in the first quarter of this year compared to $0.3 million in the first quarter of last year.
As a result of the above, Operating Income in the first quarter of 2009 was $2.5 million, or 39% of sales, compared to an operating loss of $0.9 million in the first quarter of last year. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2009 increased to 31% mainly due to the newly instituted dividend policy.
Net income for the first quarter of 2009 was $1.4 million or $0.15 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $0.7 million, or $(0.07) per diluted share in the first quarter of 2008.
This has been a fantastic quarter and really reflects the efforts that we have invested throughout 2008 to increase our search generated revenue base as well as streamline our operations. Although our business is seasonal with the second and third quarter being slower than the first and fourth quarters, we continue to expect positive results during 2009, and to maintain our revenue growth, as well as manage our costs, concluded Mr. Ofer Adler.
