Total customers purchasing over the last 12 months rose 13% to 1.25 million. The growth in the customer base reflects continued diversification of the Company’s merchandise at lower price points as well as a product mix shift from the Jewelry & Watches category to the Fashion & Accessories and Home & Consumer Electronics categories. Improvements in customer satisfaction and channel positioning also contributed to customer growth. In addition, the size of the total customer base who purchased during the three months of Q3’13 increased 20% versus last year’s same period.
Net shipped units rose 31% to 1.7 million in Q3’13, over the same quarter last year, reflecting a broader merchandise mix and a 20% decline in the average price point. Internet sales penetration increased 240 bps to 47%. Mobile net sales grew 45%, increasing to 22% of Internet sales compared to 18% in Q3’12.
ValueVision CEO, Keith Stewart, said, “We are pleased with our operating performance in the third quarter, which marked our sixth consecutive quarter of sales growth and positive Adjusted EBITDA. We continued to improve our product offerings and to diversify our product mix. We achieved double-digit customer growth. Our rebranding to ShopHQ, your shopping headquarters, is largely complete, and we believe we are well positioned for the holiday season.”
ValueVision EVP and CFO, William McGrath, said, "Our balance sheet condition remains strong. We ended the third quarter with a cash balance, including restricted cash, of $31 million. ValueVision maintains $12 million in undrawn availability under its $50 million credit facility with PNC.”

Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA represents net income (loss) for the respective periods excluding depreciation and amortization expense, interest income (expense) and income taxes. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding debt extinguishment; non-operating gains (losses); non-cash impairment charges and write-downs; activist shareholder response costs; and non-cash share-based compensation expense. The Company has included the term “Adjusted EBITDA” in our EBITDA reconciliation in order to adequately assess the operating performance of our television and Internet businesses and in order to maintain comparability to our analyst's coverage and financial guidance, when given. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA allows investors to make a more meaningful comparison between our business operating results over different periods of time with those of other similar companies. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a metric to evaluate operating performance under its management and executive incentive compensation programs. Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to operating income (loss), net income (loss) or to cash flows from operating activities as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and should not be construed as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other companies. The Company has included a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, in this release.
