Funko Reports 2023 Third Quarter Financial Results

-- Results Exceed Expectations --
                                    
EVERETT, Wash. November 2, 2023 -- Funko, Inc. (Nasdaq: FNKO), a leading pop culture lifestyle brand, today reported consolidated financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2023.
Third Quarter Financial Results Summary: 2023 vs 2022
•Net sales were $312.9 million for the 2023 third quarter versus $365.6 million for the 2022 third quarter
•Gross profit was $104.0 million, equal to gross margin of 33.2%, for the 2023 third quarter, which included $6.4 million of charges related to factory purchase order cancellations, versus 35.0% for the 2022 third quarter
•SG&A expenses were $94.0 million for the 2023 third quarter, which included $9.9 million of one-time expenses comprised of $6.2 million primarily related to the termination of a lease agreement and $3.7 million for severance and related charges. This compares with $97.9 million for the 2022 third quarter, which included $1.1 million of one-time relocation costs in connection with the opening of a new warehouse and distribution facility in Buckeye, Arizona
•Net loss was $15.0 million, or $0.31 per share, for the 2023 third quarter, versus net income of $9.6 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the 2022 third quarter
•Adjusted net income* was $1.7 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the 2023 third quarter compared with $15.1 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, for the 2022 third quarter
•Adjusted EBITDA* was $25.4 million for the 2023 third quarter compared with $35.7 million for the 2022 third quarter

“For the 2023 third quarter, net sales, adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA exceeded our expectations,” said Michael Lunsford, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Funko. “Our solid overall performance was driven by strong direct-to-consumer sales, which were bolstered by the successful online launch of Pop! Yourself; improved sales to several of our larger US and European wholesale customers, due in part to growing sales of Bitty Pop!; and ongoing efforts to significantly reduce costs and enhance efficiencies.

“We also made progress on our plan to focus on Funko’s core products and reduce the number of product
lines and complexity in our business. In addition, we re-aligned our senior management team to streamline decision making, to better collaborate and to improve cross-functional communication throughout the organization.”

Operations

“During the third quarter, we continued to make progress on improving operations and reducing costs,” said Steve Nave, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer. "As expected, our gross margin increased and selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased compared with the second quarter of 2023. Both measures would have shown even more improvement if not for certain non-recurring charges in the quarter.

"We saw a partial cost savings benefit in the third quarter from the previously announced workforce reduction of approximately 180 positions; we expect to see the full benefit beginning in our current fourth quarter." The tables below show the breakdown of net sales on a brand category and geographical basis (in thousands):

*Adjusted net loss, adjusted net loss per diluted share and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. For a reconciliation of historical adjusted net loss, adjusted loss per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA, to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures, please refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this press release. A reconciliation of adjusted net loss, adjusted net loss per diluted share and adjusted EBITDA outlook to the corresponding GAAP measure on a forward-looking basis cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts, as we are unable to provide reconciling information with respect to certain items. However, for the fourth quarter of 2023 the Company expects equity-based compensation of approximately $4 million, depreciation and amortization of approximately $15 million and interest expense of approximately $6 million. For the full year 2023 the Company expects equity-based compensation of approximately $11 million, depreciation and amortization of approximately $60 million, interest expense of approximately $27 million, and severance and restructuring expenses of approximately $12 million, which includes the non-recurring lease exit and related costs taken in Q3-2023, each of which is a reconciling item to net loss. See "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and the attached reconciliations for more information.
Conference Call and Webcast
The Company will host a conference call at 4:30 p.m. ET (1:30 p.m. PT) today, November 2, 2023, to further discuss its third quarter results and business outlook. A live webcast and replay of the event will be available on the Investor Relations section on the Company’s website at investor.funko.com. The replay of the webcast will be available for one year.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release contains references to non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted net income (loss), including per share amounts, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin, which are financial measures that are not prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). Management uses these measures internally for evaluating its operating performance, for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and financials projections, and to assess incentive compensation for our employees, and to evaluate our capacity to expand our business. In addition, our senior secured credit facilities use adjusted EBITDA to measure our compliance with covenants such as senior leverage ratio. The company's management believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplementary information regarding operational performance, because it enhances an investor's overall understanding of the financial results for the company's core business. Additionally, it provides a basis for the comparison of the financial results for the company's core business between current, past and future periods as they remove the impact of items not directly resulting from our core operations. The company also believes that including Adjusted EBITDA and the other non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release is appropriate to provide additional information to investors and help to compare against other companies in our industry. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should be considered only as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for or as a superior measure to, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of adjusted net income (loss), including per share amounts, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by our competitors, because not all companies and analysts calculate these measures in the same manner.
Detailed reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the financial tables following this release.
