__________________

Non-GAAP revenue excludes the impact of purchase accounting adjustments for the acquisition of EVault.
Bookings represent the aggregate dollar value of customer subscriptions and software arrangements, which may include multiple revenue elements, such as software licenses, hardware, professional services and post-contractual support, received during a period and are calculated as revenue recognized during a particular period plus the change in total deferred revenue, excluding deferred revenue recorded in connection with acquisitions, net of foreign exchange during the same period.
Non-GAAP gross margin excludes the impact of purchase accounting adjustments, amortization expense on intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense and acquisition-related expense.
Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share excludes the impact of purchase accounting adjustments, amortization expense on intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, litigation-related expense, restructuring-related expense, acquisition-related expense, hostile takeover-related expense, CEO transition expense, and the income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments.
Adjusted free cash flow is calculated by subtracting the cash paid for the purchase of property and equipment and adding the payments related to corporate headquarter relocation, acquisition-related payments, hostile takeover-related payments, CEO transition payments, restructuring-related payments, litigation-related payments and the cash portion of the lease exit charge from net cash provided by operating activities.

An explanation of non-GAAP measures is provided under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below, and reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures are provided in the tables at the end of this press release.

Business Outlook

Based on the information available as of November 3, 2016, Carbonite is issuing guidance for the fourth quarter and full year of 2016 as follows:

Fourth Quarter 2016:

Current Guidance
(11/3/2016)
GAAP revenue $46.6 – $51.6 million
Non-GAAP revenue $47.1 – $52.1 million
Non-GAAP net income per share $0.07 – $0.11

Full Year 2016:

Prior Guidance
(8/2/2016)
Current Guidance
(11/3/2016)
GAAP revenue $192.7 – $202.7 million $200.1 – $205.1 million
Non-GAAP revenue $195.0 – $205.0 million $202.5 – $207.5 million
Non-GAAP net income per share $0.48 – $0.52 $0.56 – $0.60

Carbonite’s expectations of non-GAAP net income per share for the fourth quarter and full year of 2016 excludes the impact of purchase accounting adjustments, stock-based compensation expense, litigation-related expense, acquisition-related expense, amortization expense on intangible assets and the income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments.  Non-GAAP net income per share assumes an effective tax rate of 11% for the full year of 2016.  Non-GAAP net income per share assumes fully-diluted weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 27.6 million for the fourth quarter and 27.3 million for the full year of 2016.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Carbonite provides all financial information required in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).  To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including bookings, non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share, non-GAAP operating expense and adjusted free cash flow. In preparing our non-GAAP information, we have excluded certain amounts as set forth in the attached financial tables.

The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and ordinary results of operations. The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare the Company’s performance to that of prior periods and uses these measures in financial reports prepared for management and the Company’s board of directors. The Company believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other software-as-a-service companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.

The Company does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant items that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents its non-GAAP financial measures in connection with its GAAP results. Exclusion of certain amounts in the calculation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that these exclusions are unusual or infrequent.  We anticipate that these exclusions will continue to be made in the future presentation of the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures.  The Company urges investors to review the reconciliation of its non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures, which it includes in press releases announcing financial results, including this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.

With respect to our expectations under “Business Outlook” above, the Company has not reconciled non-GAAP net income per share to net income (loss) per share in this press release because we do not provide guidance for stock-based compensation expense, litigation-related expense, acquisition-related expense, amortization expense on intangible assets and the income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments as we are unable to quantify certain of these amounts that would be required to be included in the GAAP measure without unreasonable efforts.  In addition, the Company believes such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors.

Cautionary Language Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
