    NEW YORK, July 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Dice Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:
DHX), a leading provider of specialized career websites for professional
communities, today reported financial results for the quarter ended June
30, 2008.

    Second Quarter Operating Results

    Total revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 increased 17% to
$40.3 million versus $34.4 million in the comparable quarter of 2007.
Growth was driven by strong performance at eFinancialCareers, as well as an
increase in the number of recruitment package customers served at Dice.com.

    Operating income for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 grew $2.4 million
or 31% to $10.2 million from the comparable quarter of 2007 as a result of
higher revenues, greater operating leverage at eFinancialCareers, and lower
amortization expense of intangible assets.

    Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 totaled $7.6 million,
including the impact of a $1.2 million pre-tax benefit related to the
Company's interest rate swap agreements which no longer qualify for hedge
accounting and a one-time tax benefit of $1.3 million. See "Recent
Developments" for additional detail. Net income for the quarter ended June
30, 2007 was $1.6 million.

    Diluted earnings per share were $0.12 for the quarter ended June 30,
2008, which includes a $0.03 per diluted share combined benefit from the
one-time tax benefit and the change in fair value of the interest rate
swaps.

    Net cash provided by operating activities for the quarter was $13.5
million, an increase of 2% from $13.2 million in the comparable quarter of
2007.

    Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 was $16.8 million,
compared with $14.9 million for the second quarter of 2007, an increase of
12%. See "Notes Regarding the Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

    Operating Segment Results

    For the quarter ended June 30, 2008, DCS Online revenues were $27.4
million or 68% of Dice Holdings' consolidated revenues, representing a 9%
increase over the comparable 2007 quarter. The increase was driven by a
greater number of recruitment package customers served and an increase of
3% in average revenue per recruitment package customer at Dice.com, as well
as strong growth at ClearanceJobs.

    eFinancialCareers, which accounted for 25% of Dice Holdings'
consolidated revenues in the second quarter of 2008, consists of the
eFinancialCareers operations outside of North America. For the quarter
ended June 30, 2008, eFinancialCareers revenues grew 53% to $9.9 million
(or 46% after adding back the impact of deferred revenue written off in
connection with the October 2006 acquisition of eFinancialCareers to the
second quarter 2007 results). Each region of the world contributed to the
growth including substantial gains in Continental Europe, the Middle East
and Asia-Pacific.

    The remaining businesses operated by Dice Holdings, which include the
eFinancialCareers operations in North America, JobsintheMoney.com, and
Targeted Job Fairs, are reported in the Other category. Other revenues grew
12% to $2.9 million (or 3% after adding back the impact of deferred revenue
written off in connection with the October 2006 acquisition of
eFinancialCareers to the second quarter 2007 results).

    Six Month Operating Results

    Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2008 increased 23% to
$79.9 million, compared to $64.7 million in the comparable period in 2007.
The increase was driven by solid performance at both eFinancialCareers and
Dice.com.

    By segment, DCS Online revenues increased 12% to $54.5 million for the
six month period ended June 30, 2008. In the same period, eFinancialCareers
contributed revenues of $19.7 million, an increase of 69% (or 60% after
adding back the impact of deferred revenue written off in connection with
the October 2006 acquisition of eFinancialCareers to the six months ended
June 30, 2007 results). Other revenues grew 25% to $5.7 million (or 11%
after adding back the impact of deferred revenue written off in connection
with the October 2006 acquisition of eFinancialCareers to the six months
ended June 30, 2007 results).

    Operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2008 increased 67%
or $8.3 million to $20.6 million from the comparable period in the prior
year. Income from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30,
2008 totaled $11.3 million, an increase of 124% from $5.1 million in the
comparable period of 2007. Net income for the six months ended June 30,
2008 increased 25% to $11.8 million from $9.5 million from the comparable
period in the prior year.

    For the six month period ended June 30, 2008, net cash provided by
operating activities increased 35% to $37.0 million compared with $27.4
million for the same period last year.

    Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $33.6
million, compared with $26.7 million for the same period in 2007, an
increase of 26%. See "Notes Regarding the Use of Non-GAAP Financial
Measures."

    Balance Sheet

    Deferred revenue at June 30, 2008 was $49.4 million compared to $43.9
million at June 30, 2007. The 13% increase was primarily attributable to
serving a greater number of recruitment package customers at Dice together
with a higher number of those customers under annual contract than at June
30, 2007.

    Net debt, defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents and
marketable securities, was $31.4 million at June 30, 2008, consisting of
total debt of $121.7 million minus cash and cash equivalents and marketable
securities of $90.3 million. This compares to a net debt balance of $43.9
million at March 31, 2008, consisting of total debt of $122.0 million minus
cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities of $78.1 million.

    Recent Developments

    During the second quarter, the Company determined its interest rate
swap agreement covering $60 million notional amount of borrowings no longer
qualified for hedge accounting. In addition, a portion of the interest rate
swap agreement covering $20 million notional amount of borrowings continues
to be treated as partially ineffective under hedge accounting rules. As a
result, the Company recorded $1.2 million of other income for the quarter
ended June 30, 2008 based on the change in fair value of the swap
agreements.

    The Company's tax expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 was
reduced by $1.3 million in conjunction with the Company's determination
regarding permanent reinvestment of foreign earnings.

    Management Comments

    Scot Melland, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer,
commented, "Amid the continued uncertainty in our markets, we recorded
another solid quarter characterized by double digit revenue and
profitability growth. The combination of a 46% increase in revenues at
eFinancialCareers and continued expansion of our U.S. businesses
demonstrates the strength of our specialist model." Mr. Melland continued,
"We continue to enhance our professional communities and services, recently
introducing new websites for both Dice and eFinancialCareers and expanding
the eFinancialCareers service to financial centers serving three additional
markets. We are confident these actions will strengthen our long-term
position, increasing our value to professionals and customers alike."

    Mike Durney, Senior Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial
Officer, noted, "As we've consistently proven over the last year,
significant cash generation coupled with strong margins makes for a great
business model and the second quarter was no different. We generated
Adjusted EBITDA margins of 42% and kept our relatively low levels of
cap-ex, even while investing in new marketing programs and launching new
platforms for the two core services." Mr. Durney added, "On top of our
continued investment, we generated more than $12 million in free cash flow
in the quarter, further strengthening our balance sheet."

performance for the quarter ending September 30, 2008 and full year 2008:

Today, we serve multiple markets primarily in North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Australia. Notes Regarding the Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Dice Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") has provided certain non-GAAP financial information as additional information for its operating results. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") and may be different from non-GAAP measures reported by other companies. The Company believes that its presentation of non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, non-cash stock based compensation expense, non-cash impairment of intangible assets and add back of deferred revenue written off ("Adjusted EBITDA"), free cash flow and net debt, provides useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the Company's management uses these measures for reviewing the financial results of the Company and for budgeting and planning purposes. Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA is a metric used by management to measure operating performance. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure for internal monitoring and planning, including preparation of annual budgets, analyzing investment decisions and evaluating profitability and performance comparisons between us and our competitors. The Company also uses this measure to calculate amounts of performance based compensation under the senior management incentive bonus program. Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in our Amended and Restated Credit Facility, represents net income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock compensation expense, extraordinary or non-recurring non-cash income or expense, and to add back the deferred revenues written off in connection with the eFinancialCareers acquisition purchase accounting adjustments. We consider Adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, to be an important indicator to investors because it provides information related to our ability to provide cash flows to meet future debt service, capital expenditures and working capital requirements and to fund future growth as well as to monitor compliance with financial covenants. We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure because we believe that this measure provides our board of directors, management and investors with additional information to measure our performance, provide comparisons from period to period and company to company by excluding potential differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting interest expense) and tax positions (such as the impact on periods or companies of changes in effective tax rates or net operating losses), and to estimate our value. We present this discussion of Adjusted EBITDA because covenants in our Amended and Restated Credit Facility contain ratios based on this measure. Our Amended and Restated Credit Facility is material to us because it is one of our primary sources of liquidity. If our Adjusted EBITDA were to decline below certain levels, covenants in our Amended and Restated Credit Facility that are based on Adjusted EBITDA may be violated and could cause, among other things, an inability to incur further indebtedness and in certain circumstances a default or mandatory prepayment under our Amended and Restated Credit Facility. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our profitability or liquidity. Free Cash Flow We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations minus capital expenditures. We believe free cash flow is an important non-GAAP measure as it provides useful cash flow information regarding our ability to service, incur or pay down indebtedness or repurchase our common stock. We use free cash flow as a measure to reflect cash available to service our debt as well as to fund our expenditures. A limitation of using free cash flow versus the GAAP measure of net cash provided by operating activities is that free cash flow does not represent the total increase or decrease in the cash balance from operations for the period since it excludes cash used for capital expenditures during the period. Net Debt Net Debt is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities. We consider net debt to be an important measure of liquidity and an indicator of our ability to meet ongoing obligations. We also use net debt, among other measures, in evaluating our choices for capital deployment. Net Debt presented herein is a non-GAAP measure and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Forward-Looking Statements This press release contains forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on those statements because they are subject to numerous uncertainties and factors relating to our operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control.

These factors and others are discussed in more detail in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, under the headings "Risk Factors," "Forward-Looking Statements" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q all of which are available on the Investor Relations page of our website at http://www.diceholdingsinc.com.
