Management Commentary

“Fiscal 2022 was a transformative year for Loop as we accelerated into our next phase of growth, capping off the year with a successful public offering and uplist to the NYSE American,” said Jon Niermann, CEO of Loop Media. “Most key financial metrics including revenue and gross margin have expanded significantly, and our growth this year has been exceptional due to increased penetration of Loop Players into the market, as well as the ramp of our Partner Platform business launched in May.

“There are more than 32 million small and medium sized businesses that can leverage our Loop players compared to the 18,000 currently in circulation, which we believe positions us for continued revenue growth, margin expansion, and turning adjusted EBITDA positive in fiscal 2023.”

Fiscal Fourth Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Revenue in the fourth quarter increased 5x to $12.2 million compared to $2.4 million in the year-ago period. The increase was driven by significantly more Loop Players deployed into the market, as well as the benefit from Loop’s Partner Platform business that was launched in May 2022.

Gross profit in the fourth quarter of 2022 increased significantly to $4.7 million compared to $0.2 million for the same period in 2021. Gross margin also increased significantly to 38.5% compared to 8.1% in the year-ago period. The increase was primarily driven by leveraging the increase in revenue with cost of sales and improved advertising revenue productivity generated by Loop players.

Total selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses in the fourth quarter of 2022 were $14.8 million compared to $5.1 million for the same period in 2021. The increase in SG&A was primarily due to an increase in headcount, greater customer acquisition and retention spend, and higher public company costs related to the Company’s public offering and up-listing to the NYSE American. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A was reduced significantly as the Company improved its operating leverage.

Net loss in the fourth quarter of 2022 was $14.6 million or $(0.28) per share, compared to a loss of $13.1 million or $(0.31) per share for the same period in 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2022 remained relatively flat at $(2.7) million compared to the same period in 2021.

On September 30, 2022, cash and cash equivalents were $14.1 million compared to $4.2 million on September 30, 2021. The increase was primarily driven by net proceeds from the Company’s sale of common stock of approximately $12.1 million in September 2022. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had total debt of $7.1 million compared to $4.4 million at September 30, 2021.

Non-GAAP Measures

Loop Media uses non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA and quarterly active units or QAUs, as supplemental measures of the performance of the Company’s business. Use of these financial measures has limitations, and you should not consider them in isolation or use them as substitutes for analysis of Loop Media’s financial results under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The tables below provide a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to the most nearly comparable measure under U.S. GAAP.

The Company defines an “active unit” as (i) an ad-supported Loop Player (or DOOH location using our ad-supported service through our “Loop for Business” application or using a DOOH venue-owned computer screening our content) that is online, playing content, and has checked into the Loop analytics system at least once in the 90-day period or (ii) a DOOH location customer using our paid subscription service at any time during the 90-day period. The Company uses “QAU” to refer to the number of such active units during such period.
