Financial Highlights
"Our investments in our strategic growth areas have continued to generate positive results. Revenue from automotive, enterprise LBS, mobile advertising and commerce, and premium LBS comprised 17% of total revenue in the June quarter, ahead of our previous expectations of 13%," said HP Jin, president, CEO and co-founder of TeleNav. "With continued investment and focus, we expect to grow revenue in these categories, both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of total revenue."
Net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 was $9.0 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, compared to net income of $11.2 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 and $10.6 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010. Net income for fiscal 2011 was $42.6 million, or $0.94 per diluted share, compared to net income of $41.4 million, or $0.83 per diluted share, in fiscal 2010.
Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 was $10.1 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $12.2 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 and $13.0 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
TeleNav prepares its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for the United States, or GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures such as non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share information included in this press release are different from those otherwise presented under GAAP. The following are explanations of each type of adjustment that we incorporate into non-GAAP financial measures:
Stock-based compensation expense relates to equity incentive awards granted to our employees, directors and consultants. Stock-based compensation expense has been and will continue to be a significant recurring noncash expense for TeleNav. While we include the dilutive impact of such equity awards in weighted average shares outstanding, the expense associated with stock-based awards reflects a noncash charge that we exclude from non-GAAP net income.
Our non-GAAP tax rate differs from the GAAP tax rate due to the elimination of the tax effect of the GAAP stock compensation expenses that are being eliminated to arrive at the non-GAAP expenses.
The shares used to compute non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per share for fiscal 2010 include the assumed conversion of all outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock into shares of common stock using the as-if converted method as of the beginning of each period presented or the date of issuance, if later. In May 2010, in conjunction with the closing of our initial public offering, all of our outstanding preferred stock was converted into shares of our common stock.
For purposes of calculating non-GAAP basic net income per share, we excluded from the fiscal 2010 calculations of net income applicable to common shareholders the accretion costs of dividends on certain convertible preferred stock.
TeleNav has provided these measures in addition to GAAP financial results because management believes these non-GAAP measures help provide a consistent basis for comparison between quarters and fiscal year growth rates that are not influenced by certain noncash charges and therefore are helpful in understanding TeleNav's underlying operating results. These non-GAAP measures are some of the primary measures TeleNav's management uses for planning and forecasting. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP and these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to information provided by other companies. Reconciliations of the GAAP to non-GAAP results are presented at the end of this press release.
