Price to public:    Between $5.00 and $6.00 per share
Trade date:    February 9, 2012
Closing date:    February 15, 2012
Common stock offered by Synacor:    5,454,545 shares
Common stock offered by the selling stockholders:    1,363,625 shares
Common stock to be outstanding immediately after this offering:    25,583,027 shares
Overallotment option offered by Synacor:    311,096 shares
Overallotment option offered by the selling stockholders:    711,629 shares
Net proceeds to Synacor:    Synacor estimates that its net proceeds from the sale of the 5,454,545 shares of common stock that it is offering will be approximately $25.2 million, assuming an initial public offering price of $5.50 per share, which is the midpoint of the range of the public offering price, and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by Synacor. If the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares in the offering is exercised in full, Synacor estimates that its net proceeds will increase by approximately $1.6 million. Synacor will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling stockholders.


Dilution:    After giving effect to Synacor’s sale of 5,454,545 shares of common stock in this offering at an assumed initial public offering price of $5.50 per share, which is the midpoint of the range of the public offering price, and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses, Synacor’s pro forma net tangible book value as of September 30, 2011 would have been $38.5 million, or $1.51 per share. This represents an immediate increase in pro forma net tangible book value of $0.85 per share attributable to existing investors and an immediate dilution in pro forma net tangible book value of $3.99 per share to purchasers of common stock in this offering. If the underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase additional shares of common stock in the offering, the pro forma net tangible book value per share after the offering would be $1.54 per share, the increase in pro forma net tangible book value per share to existing stockholders would be $0.88 per share and the dilution to new investors purchasing shares in this offering would be $3.96 per share.
