"Our second quarter results reflect our continued efforts to enhance our product portfolio, improve diversification and increase momentum in our growth businesses."

"We’re excited to announce our new cash dividend program," said Scott Landers, senior vice president and chief financial officer.

We are confident that our business model can support long-term growth while providing an additional source of return for our shareholders through quarterly dividends."

Cash, cash flow and debt balances

Outstanding debt was $42.3 million as of June 30, 2012, compared to $37.3 million as of Dec. 31, 2011, and $57.3 million as of June 30, 2011. Outstanding debt as of June 30, 2012 includes the drawdown of approximately $25 million on the company’s revolving line of credit to finance the acquisition of Bitstream completed on March 19, 2012.

Monotype had cash and cash equivalents of $32.9 million as of June 30, 2012, compared to $53.9 million as of Dec. 31, 2011 and $28.1 million as of March 31, 2012. The company generated $14.9 million of cash from operations in the second quarter of 2012, an increase of 43 percent year-over-year.

Quarterly dividend

Monotype’s board of directors approved a quarterly cash dividend program. The cash dividend will be paid on Oct. 19, 2012 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on Oct. 1, 2012. The initial quarterly dividend rate will be $0.04 per share of common stock or $0.16 annually. Monotype intends to increase this payout over time. Future declarations of dividends and the establishment of future record dates and payment dates are subject to the final determination of the board of directors.

"During the past five years, we have generated predictable cash flows regardless of economic conditions," said Landers. "Since the beginning of 2007, our operations have funded over $120 million in debt principal repayments, and we have invested significantly behind our growth initiatives. We’ve created a more diversified company and are well positioned to take advantage of expanded market opportunities in displays and digital publishing. As we look forward, we believe our disciplined capital allocation strategy, which now includes a cash dividend program, will support our growth strategies, manage our balance sheet and provide shareholders with an additional source of equity return."

Financial outlook

For the third quarter of 2012, Monotype expects revenue in the range of $36.5 million to $38.0 million. The company anticipates third quarter 2012 non-GAAP net adjusted EBITDA in the range of $15.0 million to $16.0 million, GAAP earnings per diluted share in the range of $0.17 to $0.19 and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share in the range of $0.24 to $0.26.

For the full year 2012, Monotype expects revenue in the range of $146.0 million to $149.0 million.

Non-GAAP financial measures

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures under the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. This non-GAAP information supplements and is not intended to represent a measure of performance in accordance with disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. Non-GAAP financial measures are used internally to manage the business, such as in establishing an annual operating budget and in reporting to lenders. Non-GAAP financial measures are used by Monotype management in its operating and financial decision-making because management believes these measures reflect ongoing business in a manner that allows meaningful period-to-period comparisons. Accordingly, Monotype believes it is useful for investors and others to review both GAAP and non-GAAP measures in order to (a) understand and evaluate current operating performance and future prospects in the same manner as management does and (b) compare in a consistent manner the company’s current financial results with past financial results. The primary limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures are that these measures may not be directly comparable to the amounts reported by other companies and they do not include all items of income and expense that affect operations. Monotype management compensates for these limitations by considering the company’s financial results and outlook as determined in accordance with GAAP and by providing a detailed reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures in the tables attached to this press release.

Forward-looking statements

This press release may contain forward-looking statements including those related to future revenues and operating results, the growth of the company’s OEM business and Creative Professional business, the execution of the company’s growth strategy and anticipated business momentum that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause the company’s actual results to differ materially. Factors that might cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to: risks associated with changes in the economic climate, including decreased demand for fonts or products that incorporate the company’s text imaging solutions; risks associated with the interruption of certain manufacturing chains as a result of natural disasters; risks associated with changes in the financial markets, including the availability of credit; risks associated with increased competition, which may result in the company losing customers or force it to reduce prices; risks associated with the development and market acceptance of new products or product features; risks associated with the company’s ability to adapt its products to new markets and to anticipate and quickly respond to evolving technologies and customer requirements; risks associated with the company’s ability to integrate the acquisition of Bitstream’s font business; risks associated with the company’s ability to pay dividends including the risk that the company’s board of directors may not approve future dividends; and risks associated with the ownership and enforcement of the company’s intellectual property. Additional disclosure regarding these and other risks faced by the company is available in the company’s public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the risk factors included in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended Dec. 31, 2011 and subsequent filings. The forward-looking financial information set forth in this press release reflects estimates based on information available at this time. These amounts could differ from actual reported amounts stated in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2012. While Monotype may elect to update forward-looking statements at some point in the future, the company specifically disclaims any obligation to do so, even if an estimate changes.
