Summary of Revenues and Cost of Revenues

(In Thousands of US Dollars)

NOTE: Beginning in the first quarter of 2012, Tucows reclassified its revenue streams into three distinct service offerings: Wholesale, Retail and Portfolio¹. The realignment is intended to better reflect the manner in which these revenue streams are generated and assessed by management.

“The second quarter was our ninth consecutive quarter of record revenue, up 22% year-over-year,” said Elliot Noss, President and Chief Executive Officer, Tucows Inc. “Our strong performance was driven by meaningful growth in each of our three service categories. Wholesale continues to benefit from new service introductions and customer wins. Retail continues to grow as a result of our relentless focus on customer experience. Our Portfolio is providing predictable revenue streams with strong inventory sales.”

Mr. Noss continued, “With this kind of consistency in our performance and leverage in our business model, plus promising new opportunities on the horizon like gTLDs and Ting, Tucows is well positioned to deliver continued growth and to return capital to shareholders over the long term.”

Net revenue for the second quarter of 2012 increased 22% to a record $28.2 million from $23.0 million for the second quarter of 2011 and was driven by growth in each of the Company’s three service categories.

Net income for the second quarter of 2012 was $0.7 million, or $0.02 per share, compared with net income for the second quarter of 2011 of $0.6 million, or $0.01 per share.

Deferred revenue at the end of the second quarter of 2012 was $74.5 million, an increase of 12% from $66.8 million at the end of the second quarter of 2011 and an increase of 2% from $73.0 at the end of the first quarter of 2012.

Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the second quarter of 2012 were $4.5 million compared with $6.4 million at the end of the first quarter of 2012 and relatively unchanged from the end of the second quarter of 2011. During the second quarter of 2012, the Company generated cash flow from operations of $4,000 compared with $825,000 for the same quarter of 2011. Cash flow from operations during the second quarter of 2012 was impacted by the Company investing $1.1 million in applications to own and operate six new gTLD registries under ICANN’s new gTLD program. In addition, the Company used $1.6 million for the repurchase of stock under its ongoing normal course issuer bid, $0.3 million for principal repayments under its credit facility and invested $0.2 million in equipment purchases.

¹Service Offerings: Wholesale, primarily branded as OpenSRS, is composed of revenue generated by the OpenSRS Domain Service and Other Value-Added Services, including hosted email, SSL and other trust certificates, bulk sale of domain names and advertising from the OpenSRS Domain Expiry Stream, web publishing tools, mobile phone services, third-party marketing funds, and billing software for ISPs. Retail is primarily composed of services to individuals and small businesses, including Hover, which generates revenue from the sale of domain name registration and email, and Ting, which generates revenue from mobile phone services. Portfolio includes revenue generated by the resale of names from the domain name portfolio and advertising revenue from the Company’s domain name portfolio and two large advertising-supported websites.

TORONTO, June 13, 2012 /CNW/ – Tucows Inc. (NYSE AMEX:TCX, TSX:TC), a global provider of domain names and other Internet services, today announced that its mobile phone service Ting would unveil a shared data plan on February 2, 2012, four months prior to this announcement.

“Putting multiple devices on one plan was pretty straightforward,” explained Ken Schafer, EVP Products, “the main challenge was figuring out the time travel part.”

Starting February 2, 2012, Ting customers will be able to share data, as well as voice and texts, across unlimited devices on one account. Each active device will cost just $6 a month. The value gets better as the total usage increases, amounting to huge potential savings for businesses and families. There are never any overage penalties or premiums and there are no limits or fees on features like tethering.

“Again, we think this just makes sense for mobile phone users,” explained Tucows CEO Elliot Noss. “People are wasting a ton of time and money on multiple accounts.”

“I think we showed tremendous initiative and hustle by launching this in the past. It appears our competitors will be following suit in the near future.”

While the Ting announcement actually comes a day after the big shared data plan announcement from Verizon, the Ting plan itself will precede Verizon’s June 28 launch by nearly five months.

Check out the Ting blog at ting.com/blog for the complete story, the Ting plans at ting.com/plans for more details on rates and features and the Ting savings calculator ting.com/calculator to see how much money you could be saving.

Noss also hinted at plans to launch a shareware site.

During the SOPA / PIPA debacle, Internet denizens came out in droves to beat the bills back and protect our collective online rights. We, as in the Internet at large, said that the battle was won but the war would continue. The Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act is the latest attempt at an affront to your online freedom.

CISPA hits the senate floor for voting in early June having already passed the US House of Representatives. If passed by the Senate, the last hope to get CISPA sent back to the proverbial drawing board would be a White House veto.

If passed, CISPA would provide broad authority to government organizations to collect and pass information between agencies. “Cyber threat information,” as the bill puts it. Ostensibly, CISPA is intended as a response to cyber security threats from hackers, terrorists or criminals. CISPA would give broad allowances for government agencies to pass our private information and communications between themselves. Currently, doing so leaves said agencies open to lawsuits from private citizens. Perhaps more disturbing, it allows (or could force) private organizations to pass information to government agencies under the same provisions.

The language in CISPA is in some cases so vague that it would be too easy to put to ill use. The powers afforded are too broad and would allow the government and private corporations like Facebook, Google et. al. to pass private information freely, with impunity. All under the guise of protecting against a “cyber threat.” The language explaining what exactly constitutes a cyber threat is also too broadly and loosely defined (see page 15 of the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act) and potentially sacrifices too many of our personal freedoms.

Our issues with CISPA are many. As concerned Internet citizens, we worry about what it would mean for personal online privacy—both yours and our own. As an Internet company that takes your privacy very (very) seriously, we worry about our ability to protect your online privacy, for our part, will be severely compromised.

If you feel, as we do, that CISPA is an ill conceived and too loosely defined a bill, please make your voices heard.

At Tucows, we feel that the Internet—whether accessed on your computer, on your smartphone or via any other vehicle—is vitally important. CISPA is a very serious threat to the freedom and privacy we take for granted online.
