Reports Record Revenue of $145.1 million
SEATTLE, Oct. 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Digital entertainment
services company RealNetworks(R), Inc. (Nasdaq: RNWK) today announced
results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2007.
Quarterly Highlights:
-- Record revenue of $145.1 million
-- Net income of $4.3 million or $0.03 per diluted share
-- Adjusted EBITDA of $13.6 million
"In the third quarter we both achieved solid operating results and made
great strides strategically," said Rob Glaser, chairman and CEO of Real.
"Not only did we achieve record revenue, we also increased our adjusted
EBITDA by 78% year over year. On the strategic side, we formed deep
alliances with Viacom's MTV Networks and Verizon Wireless, which we believe
will drive our Rhapsody music business forward very significantly."
For the third quarter of 2007, revenue grew 55% to $145.1 million
compared to $93.7 million for the third quarter of 2006. Revenue growth in
the third quarter was attributed to: Games revenue of $28.8 million, a 28%
increase over the third quarter of 2006; Music revenue of $37.7 million, a
24% increase over the third quarter of 2006; Technology Products and
Solutions revenue of $53.3 million, a 377% increase over the third quarter
of 2006, due in large part to the acquisition of WiderThan during the
fourth quarter of 2006; and Media Software and Services revenue of $25.3
million, a 14% decrease from the third quarter of 2006. Foreign currency
exchange rate fluctuations positively impacted 2007 third quarter revenue
by approximately $1.2 million compared to the third quarter of 2006.
Net income for the third quarter of 2007 was $4.3 million or $0.03 per
diluted share, compared to $42.2 million or $0.24 per diluted share in the
third quarter of 2006. Results for the third quarter of 2006 included
payments related to Real's antitrust settlement and commercial agreements
with Microsoft. The final payment was received under these agreements
during the first quarter of 2007. Further information regarding these
payments can be found in Real's SEC filings. Adjusted net income, described
below in Real's description of non-GAAP financial measures, was $9.2
million or $0.06 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2007, compared
to $9.0 million or $0.05 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2006.
Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2007 was $13.6 million compared to
$7.6 million in the third quarter of 2006. A reconciliation of GAAP net
income to adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA is provided in the
financial tables that accompany this release.
Gross margin was 61% in the third quarter of 2007 compared to 70% in
the third quarter of 2006. Operating expenses for the third quarter of 2007
were $103.8 million, compared to $8.1 million in the third quarter of 2006.
Operating expenses in the third quarter of 2006 included benefits related
to payments under Real's antitrust settlement and commercial agreements
with Microsoft. Adjusted operating expenses in the third quarter of 2007
were $93.9 million compared to $61.9 million in the third quarter of 2006.
A reconciliation of GAAP operating expenses to adjusted operating expenses
is provided in the financial tables that accompany this release. For the
third quarter of 2007, Real's effective tax rate was 32%.
As of September 30, 2007, Real had approximately $590.4 million in
unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments and $100
million of convertible debt.
Under Real's current stock repurchase program, approximately 4.8
million shares were repurchased for $34.2 million during the third quarter
of 2007. As of September 30, 2007, approximately $36.4 million remained
available under the existing stock repurchase program.
Formation of Rhapsody America
On August 20, 2007, Real and MTV Networks, a division of Viacom
International Inc. ("MTVN"), created Rhapsody America LLC ("Rhapsody
America"), to provide consumers with comprehensive music services,
including access to an extensive catalog of music through subscriptions,
downloads and ad supported services. Rhapsody America is owned 51% by Real
and 49% by MTVN. Real consolidated the financial results of Rhapsody
America for the period from August 20, 2007 through September 30, 2007,
with a 49% minority interest represented by MTVN's equity in Rhapsody
America.
Business Outlook
The following forward-looking statements reflect RealNetworks'
expectations as of October 30, 2007. It is not the Company's general
practice to update these forward-looking statements until its next
quarterly results announcement.
For the fourth quarter of 2007, Real expects revenue in the range of

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement RealNetworks' condensed consolidated financial statements
presented in accordance with GAAP, we present investors with certain
non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted net income and adjusted net
income per share, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA by reporting segment,
adjusted cost of revenue and adjusted operating expenses.
-- Adjusted net income consists of net income excluding the impact of the
following: stock-based compensation expense; income and expenses
including charitable contributions related to the Microsoft agreements;
equity investment gains and losses from sales or impairments;
acquisition costs, including amortization of intangible assets (net of
minority interest effect) and expenses for employee stock options that
were converted to cash rights; gain on initial formation of Rhapsody
America; an estimate of the income taxes from the aforementioned items;
and changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances.
-- Adjusted net income per share is calculated by dividing adjusted net
income by GAAP weighted average diluted shares outstanding.
-- Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA by reporting segment consist of net
income excluding the impact of the following: interest income, net;
income taxes; depreciation; amortization (net of minority interest
effect); stock-based compensation; expenses for employee stock options
that were converted to cash rights; equity investment gains and losses
from sales or impairments; income and expenses including charitable
contributions related to the Microsoft agreements; and gain on initial
formation of Rhapsody America.
-- Adjusted cost of revenue consists of GAAP cost of revenue excluding
stock-based compensation expenses, and acquisition costs including
amortization of intangible assets (net of minority interest effect) and
expenses for employee stock options that were converted to cash rights.
-- Adjusted operating expenses consist of GAAP operating expenses
excluding stock-based compensation expenses, antitrust litigation
expenses (benefits) and acquisition costs including amortization of
intangible assets (net of minority interest effect) and expenses for
employee stock options that were converted to cash rights.
RealNetworks believes that the presentation of adjusted net income and
adjusted net income per share, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA by
reporting segment, adjusted cost of revenue and adjusted operating expenses
provides important supplemental information to management and investors
regarding financial and business trends relating to the company's financial
condition and results of operations. Management believes that the use of
these non-GAAP financial measures provides consistency and comparability
with our past financial reports, and also facilitates comparisons with
other companies in our industry, many of which use similar non-GAAP
financial measures to supplement their GAAP results. Management has
historically used these non-GAAP measures when evaluating operating
performance because the inclusion or exclusion of the items described above
provides additional useful measures of our operating results and
facilitates comparisons of our core operating performance against prior
periods and our business model objectives. We have chosen to provide this
information to investors in order to enable them to perform additional
analyses of past, present and future operating performance, to enable them
to compare us to other companies, and as a supplemental means to evaluate
our ongoing operations. Externally, we believe that adjusted net income and
adjusted EBITDA continue to be useful to investors in their assessment of
our operating performance and the valuation of our company.
Internally, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share,
adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA by reporting segment, adjusted cost of
revenue, and adjusted operating expenses are significant measures used by
management for purposes of:
-- supplementing the financial results and forecasts reported to our board
of directors;
-- evaluating the operating performance of our company which includes
direct and incrementally controllable revenue and costs of operations,
but excludes items considered by management to be either non-cash or
non-operating such as interest income and expense, stock-based
compensation, tax expense, deferred tax valuation allowance changes,
depreciation and amortization;
-- managing and comparing performance internally across our businesses and
externally against our peers;
-- establishing internal operating budgets; and
-- evaluating and valuing potential acquisition candidates.
Adjusted net income is used by RealNetworks as a broad measure of
financial performance that encompasses our operating performance, cash,
capital structure and investment management, and income tax planning
effectiveness. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management as a way to isolate
our operating performance and to compare it to that of other companies.
Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share, adjusted EBITDA,
adjusted EBITDA by reporting segment, adjusted cost of revenue, and
adjusted operating expenses are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, and
should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or
superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect
all of the costs associated with the operations of our business as
determined in accordance with GAAP. As a result, you should not consider
these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of
RealNetworks' results as reported under GAAP. We expect to continue to
incur expenses similar to the non-GAAP adjustments described above, and
exclusion of these items from our non-GAAP financial measures should not be
construed as an inference that these costs are unusual or infrequent. Some
of the limitations in relying on our non-GAAP financial measures are:
-- Adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, adjusted EBITDA and
adjusted EBITDA by reporting segment are measures which we have defined
for internal and investor purposes and are not in accordance with GAAP.
A further limitation associated with these measures is that they do not
include all costs and income that impact our net income and net income
per share. We compensate for these limitations by prominently
disclosing GAAP net income, which we believe is the most directly
comparable GAAP measure, and providing investors with reconciliations
from GAAP net income to adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and
adjusted EBITDA by reporting segment.
-- Adjusted cost of revenue is limited in that it does not include
stock-based compensation expenses, and certain costs associated with
our acquisitions. Adjusted operating expenses are limited in that they
do not include stock-based compensation expenses, antitrust litigation
expenses (benefit) and certain costs associated with our acquisitions.
We compensate for these limitations by prominently disclosing the
reported GAAP results and providing investors with a reconciliation from
GAAP to the adjusted amount.
In the financial tables of our earnings press release, RealNetworks has
included reconciliations of GAAP net income to adjusted net income and
adjusted EBITDA, income before income taxes to adjusted EBITDA by reporting
segment, GAAP cost of revenue to adjusted cost of revenue and GAAP
operating expenses to adjusted operating expenses for the relevant periods.
Forward-Looking Statements: This press release contains forward-looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including statements
relating to the product and service offerings of Rhapsody America and the
impact of the Verizon and MTV Networks alliances on the Rhapsody America
business, Real's future revenue, GAAP and adjusted net income (loss) per
diluted share, amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation
expense and income tax rate. Actual results may differ materially from the
results predicted. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from
the results predicted include: development and consumer acceptance of legal
online music distribution services generally and RealNetworks' content
services in particular because these are relatively new and unproven
business models and markets; risks associated with the creation and
operation of Rhapsody America; risks associated with acquisitions
generally, and the acquisitions of WiderThan, Sony NetServices and Exomi in
particular, including the risks of integration, unknown liabilities and
operations in new markets and geographies; the potential that we will be
unable to continue to enter into commercially attractive agreements with
third parties for the provision of compelling content for our subscription
service offerings; the emergence of new entrants and competition in the
market for digital media subscription offerings and online music sales; the
impact on our gross margins of content costs and from the mix of
subscribers to subscription offerings with higher content costs than
others; competitive risks, including competing technologies, products and
services, and the competitive activities of our larger competitors, some of
which have strong ties to streaming media users through other products;
risks associated with the introduction of new products and services,
including the new RealPlayer; risks inherent in strategic relationships,
especially with competitors, and technology and service integration
efforts; and risks relating to the ability of Real's strategic partners to
generate subscribers for Real's digital content services. More information
about potential risk factors that could affect RealNetworks' business and
financial results is included in RealNetworks' annual report on Form 10-K
for the most recent year ended December 31, and its quarterly reports on
Form 10-Q and from time to time in other reports filed by RealNetworks with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. The preparation of our financial
statements and forward-looking financial guidance requires us to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and
liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reported period. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates
under different assumptions or conditions. The Company assumes no
obligation to update any forward-looking statements or information, which
are in effect as of their respective dates.
