Item 2.02.
Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On July 31, 2012, Wilhelmina International, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release reporting certain preliminary financial results and financial information for the quarter ended June 30, 2012.  A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

The press release contains information regarding Gross Billings and Adjusted EBITDA.

Gross Billings represents all amounts billed by the Company during the applicable reporting period and excludes the impact of revenue recognition policies in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).  Adjusted EBITDA is computed as operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization and corporate overhead at the holding company level.  

Gross Billings and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures, defined as a numerical measure of financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in a company’s statements of operations, balance sheets or statements of cash flows.  Because comparable GAAP financial measures are not able to be determined by the Company at the current time, management does not believe it is able to reconcile the non-GAAP information provided without unreasonable effort.  Accordingly, such information has not been provided.
 
Gross Billings and Adjusted EBITDA are used by the Company in its planning and budgeting processes and to monitor and evaluate its financial and operating results. The Company believes that these measures are useful to investors because they provide an analysis of financial and operating results using the same measure that the Company uses in evaluating itself.  The Company also believes that these measures provide stockholders and potential investors with a means to evaluate the Company’s financial and operating results against other companies within the Company’s industry.  However, the Company’s calculation of Gross Billings and Adjusted EBITDA may not be consistent with the calculation of this measure by other companies in the Company’s industry.
 
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income (loss) as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or cash flows from operating activities, as a measure of liquidity or as any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP.
 
Item 8.01.
Other Events

On July 31, 2012, the Company consummated a repurchase of a total of 8,000,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $.126 per share.  The transaction was effected through a broker dealer making a market in the Company’s shares on behalf of an affiliate of the Company.
