Riverbed Technology, Inc. Reports Third Quarter Financial Results

Revenues Increase 36% Sequentially and 247% Year-over-Year to $24.6 Million

San Francisco, CA — October 26, 2006 — Riverbed Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: RVBD) today released financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2006. Net revenues for the third quarter of 2006 were $24.6 million, which represents a sequential increase of 36% from the immediately preceding quarter and a year-over-year increase of 247% from the third quarter of last year.

The net loss on a GAAP basis for the third quarter of 2006 was $3.1 million, or $0.16 per share, compared to a net loss of $6.1 million in the second quarter of 2006 and a net loss of $3.9 million in the third quarter of 2005. Riverbed's third quarter of 2006 GAAP results included $2.1 million of non-cash stock-based compensation expenses related to employee stock options.

Excluding the impact of stock-based compensation in all periods and assuming preferred shares were converted as of the later of their issuance or the beginning of the respective periods, the non-GAAP net loss for the third quarter of 2006 was $1.0 million, or $0.02 per share, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $4.6 million in the second quarter of 2006 and a non-GAAP net loss of $3.5 million in the third quarter of 2005.

"Riverbed's revenue growth accelerated in the third quarter, indicative of the strong demand for our industry-leading technology and the rapid expansion of our market," commented Jerry Kennelly, chairman and chief executive officer of Riverbed®. During the September quarter, Riverbed added approximately 300 new customers, bringing its cumulative customer total to over 1,300 since it began shipping Steelhead® wide-area data services (WDS) appliances in mid-2004.

"Our business model improved substantially in the third quarter as we increased gross margins and decreased operating expenses as a percentage of revenue compared to all prior periods. We also generated positive cash flow from operations in the quarter for the first time in Riverbed's history," added Randy Gottfried, chief financial officer of Riverbed.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information:
    To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements
     presented on a GAAP basis, Riverbed uses non-GAAP measures of
     operating results, net loss and net loss per share, which are
     adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense and to give
     effect to the conversion of preferred stock into common stock as
     of the later of the date of their issuance or the beginning of
     the applicable accounting period. We believe these adjustments
     are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our past
     financial performance and also our prospects for the future.
     These adjustments to our current period GAAP results are made
     with the intent of providing both management and investors a more
     complete understanding of Riverbed's underlying operating results
     and trends and our marketplace performance. The non-GAAP results
     are an indication of our baseline performance that are considered
     by management for purpose of making operational decisions. In
     addition, these adjusted non-GAAP results are the primary
     indicators management uses as a basis for our planning and
     forecasting of future periods. The presentation of this
     additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation
     or as a substitute for net loss or basic and diluted net loss per
     share prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles in the United States. Non-GAAP financial measures are
     not based on a comprehensive set of accounting rules or
     principles and are subject to limitations.

(a)  Excluded amount represents stock-based compensation expense.
      Stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense accounted for in
      accordance with the intrinsic value method under Accounting
      Principles Board No. 25 through December 31, 2005 and with the
      fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial
      Accounting Standards No. 123(R) effective January 1, 2006. While
      a large component of our expense, we believe investors want to
      exclude the effects of stock-based compensation expense in order
      to compare our financial performance with that of other
      companies and between time periods.
