REALNETWORKS ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER 2014 RESULTS
RealPlayer Cloud continues to gain traction with over 2 million accounts;
Mobile Entertainment business launches new LISTEN™ app in US with T-Mobile Partnership;
Continued progress in long term strategic transition and growth strategy; and
Cash and short-term investments of $209.6 million

SEATTLE - May 7, 2014 - RealNetworks, Inc. (Nasdaq: RNWK), a leader in personal digital entertainment, today announced results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2014.
For the first quarter of 2014, revenue was $45.7 million, compared to $50.6 million in the previous quarter and $56.8 million in the first quarter of 2013.
"During the first quarter of 2014, we continued to invest in laying the foundation for our future growth and profitability," said Rob Glaser, Chairman and interim CEO of RealNetworks. "We began to roll out our new RealPlayer Cloud product globally and we now have over 2 million users. RealPlayer Cloud makes it easy to watch, save and share video across every type of popular digital device.
"Our Mobile Entertainment business brought our new LISTEN™ application, our innovative ringback tone experience for iPhone and Android users, to the U.S. via a new partnership with T-Mobile. We also hired a new leader for our Games business, Atul Bali, who brings over 20 years of experience in land-based and digital gaming.”
GAAP net loss for the first quarter of 2014 was $(7.8) million or $(0.22) per diluted share, compared to $(11.7) million or $(0.33) per diluted share in the first quarter of 2013. Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2014 was a loss of $(13.9) million, compared to $(3.0) million for the first quarter of 2013. A reconciliation of GAAP operating income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA is provided in the financial tables that accompany this release.

As of March 31, 2014, the company had $209.6 million in unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, compared to $226.2 million as of December 31, 2013.

Business Outlook

For the second quarter of 2014, RealNetworks expects total revenue in the range of $38.0 million to $41.0 million. We expect adjusted EBITDA for the quarter to be a loss in the range of $(13.0) million to $(16.0) million.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement RealNetworks' consolidated financial information presented in accordance with GAAP in this press release, the company also discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA by reportable segment, which management believes provide investors with useful information.
In the financial tables of our earnings press release, RealNetworks has included reconciliations of GAAP operating income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA and to adjusted EBITDA by reportable segment.
The rationale for management's use of non-GAAP measures is included in the supplementary materials presented with the earnings materials. Please refer to Exhibit 99.2 (“Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) to the company's report on Form 8-K, which is being submitted today to the SEC.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including statements relating to RealNetworks' current expectations regarding future revenue and adjusted EBITDA, our future growth, profitability, strategic focus and initiatives. All statements contained in this press release that do not relate to matters of historical fact should be considered forward-looking statements. These statements reflect RealNetworks’ expectations as of today, and actual results may differ materially from the results predicted. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from the results predicted include: risks associated with the implementation of RealNetworks' growth plan, strategic initiatives, and restructuring efforts; its ability to successfully introduce and monetize new products and services; competitive risks, including the growth of competing technologies, products and services, and the emergence of new entrants and competition in the market; the potential outcomes and effects of claims and legal proceedings on RealNetworks' business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations; risks associated with key customer or strategic relationships, business acquisitions and the introduction of new products and services; changes in consumer and advertising spending in response to disruptions in the global financial markets; fluctuations in foreign currencies; and changes in RealNetworks' effective tax rate. More information about potential risk factors that could affect RealNetworks' business and financial results is included in RealNetworks' annual report on Form 10-K for the most recent year ended December 31, its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and in other reports and documents filed by RealNetworks from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The preparation of RealNetworks' financial statements and forward-looking financial guidance requires the company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses during the reported period.  Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements or information, which are in effect as of their respective dates.

EX-99.2 3 exhibit992erq1-14.htm NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES Exhibit 99.2 ER Q1-14


EXHIBIT 99.2
About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement RealNetworks’ condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company presents investors with certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA by reportable segment. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA by reportable segment consist of operating income (loss) and includes other income (expense) net, but excludes the impact of the following: depreciation and amortization; acquisitions related intangible asset amortization; stock-based compensation; restructuring and other charges; lease exit and related charges; and extinguishment of liability. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.
RealNetworks believes that the presentation of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA by reportable segment provide important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Management believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides consistency and comparability with RealNetworks’ past financial reports, and also facilitates comparisons with other companies in the Company’s industry, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results. Management has historically used these non-GAAP measures when evaluating operating performance because the inclusion or exclusion of the items described above provides additional useful measures of the Company’s operating results and facilitates comparisons of the Company’s core operating performance against prior periods and its business model objectives. The Company has chosen to provide this information to investors in order to enable them to perform additional analyses of past, present and future operating performance, to enable them to compare RealNetworks with other companies, and as a supplemental means to evaluate the Company’s ongoing operations. Externally, the Company believes that adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in their assessment of RealNetworks’ operating performance and the valuation of the Company.
Internally, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA by reportable segment are significant measures used by management for purposes of:
supplementing the financial results and forecasts reported to the Company’s board of directors;
evaluating the operating performance of RealNetworks, which includes direct and incrementally controllable revenue and costs of operations but excludes items considered by management to be non-cash or non-operating such as interest income and expense, stock-based compensation, tax expense, depreciation and amortization, impairment of deferred costs and long-lived assets, and other items that are not within management’s control;
managing and comparing performance internally across the Company’s businesses and externally against the Company’s peers;
establishing internal operating budgets; and
evaluating and valuing potential acquisition candidates.
Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA by reportable segment are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, and should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operations of RealNetworks’ business as determined in accordance with GAAP. As a result, you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of RealNetworks’ results as reported under GAAP. The Company expects to continue to incur expenses similar to the non-GAAP adjustments described above, and exclusion of these items from its non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that these costs are unusual or infrequent. Some of the limitations in relying on the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures are that adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA by reportable segment are measures that the Company has defined for internal and investor purposes and are not in accordance with GAAP. A further limitation associated with these measures is that they do not include all costs and income that impact the Company’s operating income (loss). The Company compensates for these limitations by prominently disclosing GAAP operating income (loss), which the Company believes is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, and providing investors with reconciliations from GAAP operating income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA and to adjusted EBITDA by reportable segment.
RealNetworks has included reconciliations of GAAP operating income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA and GAAP operating income (loss) by reportable segment to adjusted EBITDA by reportable segment for the relevant periods in the financial tables of its earnings press release, which is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
