ValueVision CEO, Keith Stewart, said, “Second quarter results showed strong top line growth and our fifth consecutive quarter of positive Adjusted EBITDA. We continued to make progress in broadening our product offerings as well as accelerated new and retained customer growth. Our rebranding to ShopHQ, your shopping headquarters, is progressing well and our customers are responding positively.”
ValueVision EVP and CFO, William McGrath, said, “Our balance sheet condition remains strong. We ended the second quarter with a cash balance, including restricted cash, of $35 million. Major cash expenditures in the quarter included the final payment under our trademark license agreement with NBCUniversal of $2.8 million as well as $2.5 million in capital expenditures. ValueVision continues to maintain $12 million in undrawn availability under its $50 million credit facility with PNC. This availability further strengthens our balance sheet condition.”

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; 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.
