PARK CITY, Utah, Nov. 5, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Skullcandy, Inc. (NASDAQ:SKUL) today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2015.

Net sales: $67.2 million vs. $58.1 million, up 16% (up 19% currency neutral)

Gross margin: 41.0% vs. 45.3%, down 430 basis points (down 272 basis points currency neutral)

Selling, general and administrative expense (SG&A): $24.5 million vs. $22.7 million, up 8%

SG&A expense as a percent of net sales: 36.4% vs. 39.2%

Operating income: $3.1 million vs. $3.6 million, down $0.5 million (up 29% currency neutral)

Earnings per share $0.08, up 8% (up 29% currency neutral)

"Our third quarter performance was highlighted by twenty two percent net sales growth in the U.S. and fourteen percent constant currency net sales growth in our international markets. Our product innovation, demand creation and distribution strategies are resonating with Skullcandy and Astro consumers around the world," said Hoby Darling, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our deep relationship with our consumer, coupled with our ability to be nimble and quick to market allows us to serve our consumer innovative and creative products that align with current trends. Our new Skullcandy wireless ear buds and headphones are a great example and an awesome addition to our existing product lineup that already includes several of the best-selling styles at retail. Strong sell-through of our new wireless products and increased year over year sales of our traditional wired products contributed to Skullcandy being the number one chosen headphones in the US for the fourth consecutive quarter. At the same time, Astro continues to dominate the high end of the gaming market with its leading portfolio of next-generation compatible headsets that now include Halo 5 and Call of Duty licensed editions. We remain very confident in the strategic course that we have set for the Company."

Net sales in the third quarter of 2015 increased 16% to $67.2 million from $58.1 million in the same quarter a year ago, or an increase of 19% on a currency neutral basis. Domestic (U.S.) net sales increased 22% to $47.0 million from $38.5 million in the same quarter a year ago, due to increases in both Audio and Gaming categories. International (Non U.S.) net sales increased 3% to $20.2 million from $19.5 million in the same quarter a year ago, or an increase of 14% on a currency neutral basis, primarily due to increased audio product sales in India, Australia, China and increased gaming product sales in Europe.

Gross profit in the third quarter of 2015 increased 5% to $27.6 million from $26.3 million in the same quarter a year ago, or an increase of 12% on a currency neutral basis. Gross margin decreased to 41.0% in the third quarter of 2015 from 45.3% in the same quarter a year ago primarily due to approximately 160 basis points of negative foreign currency effects and product mix shift towards generally lower margin wireless and gaming products.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses in the third quarter of 2015 increased 8% to $24.5 million from $22.7 million in the same quarter a year ago, or an increase of 10% on a currency neutral basis. The increase in SG&A expenses is primarily due to increases in demand creation, research and innovation, personnel, and in-store display depreciation expenses, partially offset by a decrease in foreign sales tax. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses decreased 280 basis points to 36.4% as compared to 39.2% in the same quarter a year ago.

Operating income in the third quarter of 2015 was $3.1 million compared to $3.6 million in the same quarter a year ago, but was up 29% on a currency neutral basis. This slight decrease in operating income is due to a lower gross margin percentage and increased SG&A expenses to fund future growth, partially offset by net sales.

Net income in the third quarter of 2015 was $2.3 million, or $0.08 per share, based on 28.8 million weighted average diluted common shares outstanding. Net income in the same quarter a year ago was $2.1 million, or $0.07 per share, based on 28.5 million weighted average diluted common shares outstanding. On a currency neutral basis, net income increased 30%.

*"Currency neutral basis," assumes the foreign exchange rates in effect for the three months ended September 30, 2015 were in effect for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and that neither period receives the effect of foreign currency related income or expense. See the supplemental financial information for additional information regarding currency neutral basis.

Balance Sheet Highlights

As of September 30, 2015, cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments totaled $13.9 million compared to $36.6 million as of December 31, 2014. This decrease mostly reflects the Company's implementation of accelerated payment programs with certain contract manufacturers that began during the second quarter of 2015. In part due to the accelerated payment programs, our Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities decreased $11.6 million and $10.4 million from December 31, 2014 to September 30, 2015, respectively. The Company expects to realize product cost reductions and gross margin benefits as a result of such accelerated payment programs. Furthermore, the decrease in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments was also due to payments for in-store displays that were placed into service. The Company continued to have no outstanding debt. Accounts receivable, net decreased 12% to $65.5 million as of September 30, 2015 from $74.4 million as of December 31, 2014. Inventories, net increased 14% to $62.5 million as of September 30, 2015 from $55.0 million as of December 31, 2014.

2015 Full Year and Fourth Quarter Financial Outlook

For the full year 2015, the Company forecasts net sales to increase 10-11% over 2014 levels, or approximately 13% on a constant currency basis, and net income on a U.S. GAAP fully-diluted per share basis of a range of $0.37 to $0.39, an increase of 42% over 2014 levels, or approximately 82% on a constant currency basis.

For the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company forecasts net sales to increase 5-7% over 2014 levels, or approximately 9% on a constant currency basis, and net income on a U.S. GAAP fully-diluted per share basis of a range of $0.38 to $0.40, an increase of 49% over 2014 levels, or approximately 65% on a constant currency basis.

Skullcandy is a global company and reports financial information in U.S. dollars in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations impact the amounts reported by Skullcandy from translating its operating results into U.S. dollars, and from entering various transactions denominated in different currencies.

*These rate fluctuations can have a significant effect on reported operating results. As a supplement to our reported operating results, we present currency neutral financial information, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Currency neutral financial information assumes a constant exchange rate between the periods being compared for purposes of currency translations into U.S. dollars (i.e., assumes the foreign exchange rates used to determine results for the three months ended September 30, 2015 apply to the period against which such results are being compared). We use currency neutral information to provide a framework to assess how our business performed.

Certain amounts included in the calculations of currency neutral operating results, which constitute non-GAAP measures, are subject to management allocations and assumptions. The company believes the presentation of information on currency neutral basis is helpful to investors by making it easier to compare the company's performance in one period to that of another period without the variability caused by fluctuations in currency exchange rates.

These currency neutral performance measures should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of or superior to, our operating performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The currency neutral information presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

($1,674)

($557)

Adjusted EBITDA (loss), a non-GAAP ("Generally Accepted Accounting Principles") financial measure, represents net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and change in the fair value of warrant liabilities. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flows for the period, nor is it being presented as an alternative to operating or net loss as an indicator of operating performance and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. As defined, Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to potential inconsistencies in the method of calculation. Our management believes, however, that in addition to the performance measures found in our financial statements, Adjusted EBITDA is a useful financial performance measurement for assessing our Company's operating performance. Our management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measurement of operating performance in comparing our performance on a consistent basis over prior periods, as it removes from operating results the impact of our capital structure, including the interest expense resulting from our outstanding debt, and our asset base, including depreciation and amortization of our capital and intangible assets. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure for our lender.

Delivered Results Above Guidance Range With $182M in Bookings and $11M in Adjusted EBITDA Mobile Bookings up 31% Year-Over-Year and 4% Sequentially Mobile Audience up 7% Sequentially SAN FRANCISCO, May 04, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Zynga Inc. (NASDAQ:ZNGA), a leading social game developer, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2016. In addition to today’s press release, a copy of our Q1 2016 Quarterly Earnings Letter, which outlines our Q1 2016 financial results and business outlook, is available on our website at http://investor.zynga.com. Zynga management will host a live Q&A session at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time (5:00 p.m. Eastern Time) today, May 4, to discuss the Company's Q1 2016 performance and business outlook. Questions may be asked on the call or submitted in advance via email to [email protected], and the company will respond to as many questions as possible. “It’s been a productive two months leading Zynga as CEO. I’m seeing our momentum improve as our teams continue their commitment to growing our established live franchises and demonstrate more cost and operating discipline. As a result, Q1 bookings were above the high end of our guidance range at $182 million, and Adjusted EBITDA was above our range at $11 million. Our mobile momentum continued with mobile now representing 76% of our total bookings, up from 73% from last quarter, and total mobile audience up 7% from last quarter,” said Frank Gibeau, CEO of Zynga. “Zynga has all the ingredients it needs for a successful turnaround. My priority is to bring our founding social gaming vision to life in our games and lead our teams to deliver high quality experiences for players on time and profitably.” “Since joining, the biggest surprise for me has been how much operating leverage we have across the company, which we can unlock with improved planning, more focused execution and cost control. That means putting in place more disciplined, consistent development practices and more cross team collaboration. Over the long term, there’s no reason why Zynga’s margins can’t be more in line with its peers. We’re committed to improving our operating leverage and cost management to attain those levels. Longer term, we’re building a world class studio and innovative creative culture. In my experience, the best games in the world are made by small, complete teams with great chemistry who build games in a predictable and profitable way,” said Gibeau.

The Zynga Inc. logo is available at http://www.globenewswire.com/newsroom/prs/?pkgid=11743 Key Operating Metrics We manage our business by tracking several operating metrics: “DAUs,” which measure daily active users of our games, “MAUs,” which measure monthly active users of our games, “MUUs,” which measure monthly unique users of our games, “MUPs,” which measure monthly unique payers in our games, and “ABPU,” which measures our average daily bookings per average DAU, each of which is recorded by our internal analytics systems. The numbers for these operating metrics are calculated using internal company data based on tracking of user account activity. We also use third party network logins to help us track whether a player logged under two or more different user accounts is the same individual. We believe that the numbers are reasonable estimates of our user base for the applicable period of measurement; however, factors relating to user activity and systems may impact these numbers. Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 and, when filed, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, for our definitions of “DAU,” “MAU,” “MUU,” “MUP” and “ABPU”. MUUs, MUPs and payer conversion in this press release exclude Rising Ride games (Black Diamond Casino and Vegas Diamond Slots) and Zindagi legacy games (Yummy Gummy and Crazy Kitchen) as our systems are unable to distinguish whether a player of these games is also a player of other Zynga games.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures We have provided in this press release certain non-GAAP financial measures, including bookings, Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), free cash flow, non-GAAP provision for (benefit from) income taxes, non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, and non-GAAP diluted share count, to supplement our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP (our “GAAP financial statements”). Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing our financial results to assess operational performance and liquidity. Our non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our GAAP financial statements. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they allow for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics we use in making operating decisions and because our investors and analysts use them to help assess the health of our business. In line with our historical practice, the financial information presented herein is provided on a supplemental, non-GAAP basis unless otherwise indicated. We have provided reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in (i) this press release announcing our financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2016 (which is included as Exhibit 99.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on May 4, 2016, a copy of which may be obtained by visiting our Investor Relations web site at http://investor.zynga.com or the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov), (ii) when filed, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2016, a copy of which may be obtained by visiting our Investor Relations web site at http://investor.zynga.com or the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov, and (iii) our first quarter of 2016 earnings slides presentation, dated May 4, 2016, a copy of which may be obtained by visiting our Investor Relations web site at http://investor.zynga.com. Some limitations of the non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release: Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP provision for (benefit from) expense do not include the impact of stock-based expense, acquisition-related transaction expenses, contingent consideration fair value adjustments and restructuring expense;Bookings, Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP provision for (benefit from) expense do not reflect that we defer and recognize online game revenue and revenue from certain advertising transactions over the estimated average life of durable virtual goods or as virtual goods are consumed;Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect income tax expense and does not include other income (expense) net, which includes foreign exchange gains and losses and interest income;Adjusted EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization of intangible assets, while non-GAAP net income (loss) excludes amortization of intangible assets from acquisitions. Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future; andFree cash flow is derived from net cash provided by operating activities less cash spent on capital expenditures and acquisitions, and removing the excess income tax benefits or costs associated with stock-based awards.Because of these limitations, you should consider the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release with our GAAP financial statements. See the GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations in this press release and in the places listed above for further details.
