LOOPNET, INC. ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER 2009 FINANCIAL RESULTS

SAN FRANCISCO, CALIF. — October 28, 2009 — LoopNet, Inc. (NASDAQ: LOOP), today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2009.

Revenue for the third quarter of 2009 was $18.8 million, compared to $22.4 million in the third quarter of 2008. Net income applicable to common stockholders for the third quarter of 2009 was $3.7 million or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to $4.8 million or $0.13 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2008. Non-GAAP net income (net income excluding stock-based compensation and litigation related costs) for the third quarter of 2009 was $5.3 million or $0.12 per diluted share, compared to $6.4 million or $0.17 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2008.

LoopNet’s Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation and litigation related costs) for the third quarter of 2009 was $7.8 million, compared to $10.4 million in the third quarter of 2008. The Company has reported Adjusted EBITDA because management uses it to monitor and assess the Company’s performance and believes it is helpful to investors in understanding the Company’s business.

“We are very pleased with how the company and business performed during Q3 2009,” said LoopNet Chairman and CEO Richard Boyle. “Despite extremely challenging industry conditions, we comfortably exceeded the financial targets that we set three months ago, and several key measures of our business improved substantially in the quarter. Equally important, we are as confident as ever that our team, approach, and positioning will enable us to emerge from the current down cycle as a much stronger company.”

The number of LoopNet registered members, which includes both basic and premium members, grew to 3,760,249 during the third quarter of 2009, a 21% increase over the third quarter of 2008. The number of LoopNet premium members as of the end of the third quarter of 2009 was 69,809, a 17% decline from the third quarter of 2008. The average monthly price of premium membership increased to $66.09, up 2% over the third quarter of 2008. There were 729,467 total commercial real estate listings active on the LoopNet marketplace as of the end of the third quarter of 2009, a 14% increase over the third quarter of 2008. In addition, there were 44.1 million profile views of listings on the LoopNet marketplace during the third quarter of 2009, a 1% decline from the third quarter of 2008. Average monthly unique visitors during the third quarter of 2009, as reported by comScore Media Metrix, were approximately 1,005,000, a 11% increase over the third quarter of 2008.

As of September 30, 2009, LoopNet had $125.5 million of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments and no debt.

Business Outlook

The Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income guidance for the quarter ending December 31, 2009 exclude stock-based compensation and litigation related costs.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes discussions of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share, which are non-GAAP financial measures provided as a complement to results provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The term “Adjusted EBITDA” refers to a financial measure that we define as earnings before net interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation and litigation related costs. The term “non-GAAP net income” refers to a financial measure that we define as net income before stock-based compensation and litigation related costs. Non-GAAP net income is also provided on a per share basis, using shares outstanding at the relevant period of measurement. Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share are not substitutes for measures determined in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share as reported by other companies. We believe Adjusted EBITDA to be relevant and useful information to our investors as this measure is an integral part of our internal management reporting and planning process and is the primary measure used by our management to evaluate the operating performance of our business. The components of Adjusted EBITDA include the key revenue and expense items for which our operating managers are responsible and upon which we evaluate their performance, and we also use Adjusted

EBITDA for planning purposes and in presentations to our board of directors. We believe non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share to be relevant and useful information to our investors as they provide meaningful insight into the Company’s performance while excluding infrequent and non-recurring items that may not be considered directly related to our on-going business operations. We believe that non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share are also used by companies and investors to evaluate performance in the online marketplace and platform industry. We also believe that Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share allow for a more accurate comparison of our operating results over historical periods. A limitation of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share is that they do not include all items that impact our net income for the period. Management compensates for this limitation by also relying on the comparable GAAP financial measure of net income, which includes the items that are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures should be considered as a complement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to GAAP is provided in the attached tables. Reconciliations of Company expectations for Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income per share for the quarter ending December 31, 2009 to Company expectations for GAAP net income for the quarter ending December 31, 2009 are not provided, as GAAP net income expectations for this period is not accessible. GAAP net income expectations are not accessible for this period due to the uncertain nature of the timing and amount of potential litigation related costs.
