marketplace with a new look, develop new business pipelines and
optimize our overall go-to-market approach. None of this would be

Q4 2020 Results
Net
sales decreased 19.2% to $5,108,000 in Q4 2020, from $6,318,000 in
Q4 2019, primarily due to a decrease in POPS revenue. Our POPS
revenue was negatively impacted by competitive pressures and brands
not spending on syndicated signage due to COVID. Q4 2020 net sales
were positively impacted by an 12.2% increase in non-POPS revenue
compared to Q4 2019.
Gross
profit in Q4 2020 decreased to $1,086,000, or 21.3% of net sales,
from $1,596,000, or 25.3% of net sales, in Q4 2019. The decrease in
gross profit was primarily due to a decrease in POPS revenue,
partially offset by an increase in revenue from non-POPS
revenue.
Selling
expenses in Q4 2020 were $645,000, or 12.6% of net sales, compared
to $654,000, or 10.4% of net sales, in Q4 2019 due to reduced staff
related expenses.
Marketing
expenses in Q4 2020 were $215,000, or 4.2% of net sales, compared
to $585,000, or 9.3% of net sales, in Q4 2019. Decreased marketing
expense was primarily the result of decreased staffing and variable
staff related expenses, and due to decreased consulting
expenses.
General
and administrative expenses in Q4 2020 were $1,149,000, or 22.5% of
net sales, compared to $881,000, or 13.9% of net sales, in Q4 2019.
Increased general and administrative expenses were primarily due to
litigation expenses related to the litigation with News America,
partially offset by decreased staffing.
Income
tax for Q4 2020 was (1.4)% of pretax loss, or an expense of
$12,000, compared to income tax benefit of 2.0% of pretax loss or
$50,000, in Q4 2019.
As a
result of the items above, the net loss for Q4 2020 was $871,000,
or $0.50 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of
$2,459,000, or $1.43 per basic and diluted share, in Q4
2019.
As of
December 31, 2020, cash and cash equivalents totaled $7.1 million,
compared to $7.5 million as of December 31, 2019.
