GAAP revenue for Q2’13 was $250 million, compared to $198 million in the second quarter of 2012, representing 26% year-over-year growth. GAAP net loss for Q2’13 was $16.5 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net income of $18.1 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, in Q2’12.

Non-GAAP revenue for Q2’13 was $255 million, an increase of 28% compared to $199 million in Q2’12. Non-GAAP net income for Q2’13 was $36.6 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $37.3 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, in Q2’12.

"Total non-GAAP revenue increased 28% year-over-year, with growth across all major product lines, geographies, and verticals," said Jerry M. Kennelly, chairman and CEO.

"Riverbed’s core revenue, excluding OPNET, grew 7% sequentially to $215 million in the second quarter. Non-GAAP revenue from the acquired OPNET products was $40 million, as we still have work to do integrating the two companies," continued Kennelly. "Our market expanding products outside of WAN optimization and OPNET grew almost 50% compared to last year, and we believe our multi-product strategy to deliver unmatched application performance will allow us to accelerate the company’s revenue growth."
