“The Company had a strong fourth quarter and fiscal year in 2012,” stated Richard Howe, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Inuvo. “Not only did revenue and Adjusted EBITDA increased sequentially and year over year, but the business itself grew 26% organically between Q2 and Q4 following the Vertro acquisition in Q1.
