On a non-GAAP basis, Adjusted Operating Loss (“AOL”)* narrowed to ($1.4) million from ($3.7) million in Q2 2020.

 

 

LiveXLive CEO and Chairman, Robert Ellin, commented, “Delivering the most authentic voice in music in the past 25 years, LiveXLive is a leading talent-first platform focused on connecting artists with their superfans - building long term, sustainable, valuable franchises in audio music, podcasting, OTT, pay-per-view and live streaming. Delivering our 10th consecutive quarter of record revenues, our team has built one of the most powerful social live music networks in the world to Attend, Listen, Watch, Engage, and Transact. Based on completed and planned pay-per-view events, the substantial increase in sponsorship deals, and an expected improvement in ad revenue, we expect to report our 11^th consecutive quarter of record revenue for our current Q3 fiscal quarter.”

Business Outlook

 

LiveXLive is raising its full-year fiscal 2021 guidance as follows:

 

●

Revenue of $63.5 - $69.5 million

 

●

Annualized Contribution Margin* of 30% - 35% of revenue

 

●

Adjusted Operating Loss* of ($2.5) - ($5.0) million

 

●

Capital expenditures, which principally include internally capitalized labor costs supporting the growth of our music platform, in the range of $3.0 - $5.0 million

 

●

Expectation to livestream over 100 music festivals and events

 

** With respect to projected full year 2021 Adjusted Operating Loss*, a quantitative reconciliation is not available without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability, complexity and low visibility with respect to purchase accounting adjustments, acquisition-related charges and legal settlement reserves excluded from Adjusted Operating Loss*. We expect that the variability of these items could have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.

Second Quarter 2021 Results Summary Discussion

 

During Q2 fiscal 2021, LiveXLive posted record revenue of $14.6 million versus $9.6 million in Q2 fiscal 2020. The increase was largely due to the growth in advertising, sponsorship, and PPV ticketing revenue offset by a decrease in subscription revenue as a result of certain subscribers subject to a contractual dispute. Paid subscribers as of September 30, 2020 increased 21% to 936,000, a net increase of 161,000 as compared to 775,000 subscribers at September 30, 2019. Included in the total number as of September 30, 2020 are certain subscribers which are the subject of a contractual dispute. LiveXLive is currently not recognizing revenue related to these subscribers.

 

LiveXLive livestreamed 29 live events during Q2 2021, as compared to 10 in Q2 2020, significantly reduced the cost per event, and made incremental investments to drive long-term growth. These growth activities drove a net loss of ($10.2) million, loss from operations of ($7.1) million and AOL^* of ($1.4) million in Q2 fiscal 2021.

 

Q2 fiscal 2021 Operating Loss of ($7.1) million was lower as compared to a ($9.9) million Operating Loss in Q2 fiscal 2020. The $2.8 million improvement was largely driven by (i) a $3.1 million improvement in contribution margin* in Q2 fiscal 2021, as compared to Q2 fiscal 2020, driven by higher sponsorship revenue and a decrease in production expenses, and the addition of PodcastOne during the quarter, and (ii) offset by increased operating expenses of $0.3 million, primarily as a result of the addition of Podcast One.

 

Q2 fiscal 2021 AOL* of ($1.4) million improved by 62% or $2.3 million when compared to Q2 fiscal 2020 AOL* of ($3.7) million, driven by improved contribution margin* and operating expenses during the period. Q2 fiscal 2021 AOL* was driven by Operations loss of ($0.1) million and Corporate loss of ($1.3) million.

 

Capital expenditures for Q2 fiscal 2021 totaled approximately $0.8 million, which were largely driven by capitalized software costs associated with development of our integrated music player and PPV services in Q2 fiscal 2021.

 

At September 30, 2020, LiveXLive had approximately $21.0 million in cash and cash equivalents, which includes restricted cash of $0.2 million.

* About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), we present Contribution Margin (Loss), Adjusted Operating Income (“AOI”) and Adjusted Operating Loss (“AOL”), which are non-GAAP financial measures, as measures of our performance. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, or superior to, operating loss and or net income (loss) or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities or any other measures of our cash flows or liquidity.

 

We use Contribution Margin (Loss) and AOL to evaluate the performance of our operating segment. We believe that information about these non-GAAP financial measures assists investors by allowing them to evaluate changes in the operating results of our business separate from non-operational factors that affect operating income (loss) and net income (loss), thus providing insights into both operations and the other factors that affect reported results. AOL is not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP. A limitation of the use of AOL as a performance measure is that it does not reflect the periodic costs of certain amortizing assets used in generating revenue in our business. Accordingly, AOL should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, operating income (loss), net income (loss), and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, this measure may vary among other companies; thus, AOL as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

  

Contribution Margin (Loss) is defined as revenue less Cost of Sales. AOI/AOL is defined as operating income (loss) before (a) non-cash GAAP purchase accounting adjustments for certain deferred revenue and costs, (b) legal, accounting and other professional fees directly attributable to acquisition activity, (c) employee severance payments and third party professional fees directly attributable to acquisition or corporate realignment activities, (d) certain non-recurring expenses associated with legal settlements or reserves for legal settlements in the period that pertain to historical matters that existed at acquired companies prior to their purchase date and a one-time minimum guarantee to effectively terminate a live events distribution agreement post COVID-19, (e) depreciation and amortization (including goodwill impairment, if any), and (f) certain stock-based compensation expense.  Management does not consider these costs to be indicative of our core operating results.

 

With respect to projected full year 2021 AOL, a quantitative reconciliation is not available without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability, complexity and low visibility with respect to purchase accounting adjustments, acquisition-related charges and legal settlement reserves excluded from AOL. We expect that the variability of these items to have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.

 

For more information on this non-GAAP financial measure, please see the table entitled “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measure to GAAP Measure” included at the end of this release.
