This excerpt taken from the WBMD 8-K filed Nov 23, 2009. Seasonality
The timing of the Company’s revenue is affected by seasonal
factors. Public portal advertising and sponsorship revenue is
seasonal, primarily as a result of the spending patterns of the
advertising and sponsorship clients of the Company’s public
portals. This portion of the Company’s revenue is usually
the lowest in the first quarter of each calendar year, and
increases during each consecutive quarter throughout the year.
The timing of revenue in relation to expenses of the Company,
much of which do not vary directly with revenue, has an impact
on cost of operations, sales and marketing and general and
administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue in each
calendar quarter.

Revenue within our public portals is seasonal, primarily due to
the annual budget approval process of our clients. This portion
of our revenue is usually the lowest in the first quarter of
each calendar year, and increases during each consecutive
quarter throughout the year. Our private portals revenue is
historically higher in the second half of the year as new
customers are typically added during this period in conjunction
with their annual open enrollment periods for employee benefits.
