LEAPFROG REPORTS 2013 FINANCIAL RESULTS

 

LeapPad Tablets’ Net Sales Were Up 11% and Were Again the No. 1 Selling Children’s Learning Tablets in the U.S. and the U.K. in 20131

 

LeapFrog’s Board of Directors Authorizes $30 Million Share Repurchase Program

 

New Learning Platform Planned for Holiday 2014

 

EMERYVILLE, Calif.—February 12, 2014—LeapFrog Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE:LF) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2013.

 

Highlights of full-year 2013 results compared to full-year 2012 results:

 

·Consolidated net sales were $553.6 million, down 5%.
·U.S. segment net sales were down 9%, while international segment net sales were up 6%.
·Net income per diluted share was $1.19, down 4%.
·Normalized net income per diluted share2 (non-GAAP), which reflects an effective 37.5% tax rate and excludes actual tax benefits and tax expenses, was $0.30, down 46%.
·Operating cash flow was $78.9 million, up 16%.
·Cash and cash equivalents were $168.1 million as of December 31, 2013, up 40% compared to the balance as of December 31, 2012.

 

“The holiday retail environment was very challenging,” said John Barbour, Chief Executive Officer. “As a result, we were unable to build on the 28% full-year net sales growth we achieved in 2012, and our net sales declined 5% for the year.

 

“2013 was our second most profitable year in the last 10 years, and our compound annual net sales growth rate for the last four years was 10%. Operating income as a percentage of net sales was 6.3% down from 11.0% in 2012, but still a solid return. We generated $78.9 million in operating cash flow and ended 2013 with more cash on hand than we have ever had at year-end, and with no debt.

 

“We entered the fourth quarter of 2013 with net sales up 9% through the first nine months of the year, significantly better retail in-stocks, more shelf space and far stronger promotional campaigns planned for the holiday season. Unfortunately, tough retail conditions, deep retailer price discounting, open-to-buy issues and increased competition impacted our business.

“In the U.S., consumers shopped later expecting better deals and with six fewer days between Thanksgiving and Christmas, consumer demand was compressed in the peak shopping weeks, resulting in a decline in retailers’ ability to keep our key products stocked on shelves. Retailers’ retail price discounting on the LeapPad2 tablet to drive traffic to their stores negatively affected the value proposition of our tablet line including our LeapPad2 Power tablet and our traditionally strong exclusive value bundle program. Additionally, our handheld gaming business declined significantly as more consumers played games on tablets.

 

“All of these factors contributed to a disappointing drop in sales and profit for 2013 versus the exceptional sales growth and financial performance we achieved in 2012.

 

“While we are disappointed with our 2013 results, our LeapPad hardware net sales grew by over 11%, and we remained the market leader in children’s learning tablets in most of our major markets for the third year in a row, including in the U.S. and the U.K.3 And, our LeapFrog Explorer Licensed and Non-Licensed Software Assortment was the second best-selling toy ranked in dollars in the U.S.4 and number seven in the U.K.5 according to NPD.

 

“In 2014, we plan to broaden our portfolio with innovative new product categories to entertain and educate children to help them achieve their potential, including the launch of a major new platform in a category in which we do not currently participate and other new innovative learning products. We will also launch a number of exciting new LeapPads that deliver incredibly fun learning experiences for children.

 

“We are very excited about the response our new categories and products for 2014 received from our key customers at recent pre-shows and toy fairs.

 

“In addition, we intend to continue to make significant long-term, strategic investments in content, international expansion, online communities and information technology systems. We believe these investments will position us well for long-term growth and continued leadership in educational entertainment.”

 

Financial Overview for the Fourth Quarter 2013 Compared to the Fourth Quarter 2012

 

Fourth quarter 2013 net sales were $186.7 million, down 24% compared to $244.7 million last year, and were not materially impacted by changes in currency exchange rates. Net sales declined primarily due to lower sales of our multimedia product line given the very challenging retail, promotional and competitive environment. In the U.S. segment, net sales were $123.7 million, down 30% compared to $177.8 million last year. In the International segment, net sales were $63.0 million, down 6% compared to $67.0 million last year, and included a 1% negative impact from changes in currency exchange rates.

 

Income from operations for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $1.5 million compared to $43.2 million reported a year ago. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales was 0.8% compared to 17.7% a year ago.

 

Net income (GAAP) for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $63.9 million, up 3% compared to $62.3 million a year ago. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2013 reflects a $63.6 million net benefit from income taxes including a $62.8 million benefit related to a release of valuation allowance previously set against our deferred tax assets, a $0.4 million benefit related to the expiration of statues of limitations in our foreign jurisdictions, and a $1.7 million tax adjustment attributable to our U.S. operations, partially offset by $1.3 million of tax expenses primarily related to our international operations. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2012 reflects a $19.3 million net benefit from income taxes including a $20.3 million benefit due to adjustments related to our deferred tax asset valuation allowances, partially offset by $1.0 million of tax expenses primarily related to our international operations.

Financial Overview for the Full-Year 2013 Compared to the Full-Year 2012

 

Full-year 2013 net sales were $553.6 million, down 5% compared to $581.3 million last year, and were not materially impacted by changes in currency exchange rates. Net sales declined primarily due to lower sales of our multimedia product line, led by the decline in handheld gaming systems and their associated content and accessories. Net sales were also impacted by the very challenging retail, promotional and competitive environment. In the U.S. segment, net sales were $387.0 million, down 9% compared to $424.8 million last year. In the International segment, net sales were $166.6 million, up 6% compared to $156.5 million last year, and included a 1% negative impact from changes in currency exchange rates.

Net income was $84.0 million for the full-year 2013, down 3% compared to $86.5 million in 2012. Net income for the full-year 2013 reflects a $50.2 million net benefit from income taxes which includes a $62.8 million benefit related to a release of valuation allowance previously set against our deferred tax assets and a $0.7 million benefit related to the expiration of statues of limitations in our foreign jurisdictions, partially offset by $10.5 million of tax expenses attributable to our U.S. operations, which were excluded in the prior year due to the full valuation allowance recorded against our domestic deferred tax assets, and $2.8 million of tax expenses primarily related to our international operations. Net income for the full-year 2012 reflects a $24.5 million net benefit from income taxes which includes $20.3 million benefit due to adjustments to our deferred tax asset valuation allowance and a $6.4 million benefit related to the expiration of statues of limitations in our foreign jurisdictions, partially offset by $2.2 million of tax expenses primarily related to our international operations.

Share Repurchase Program

 

Our board of directors has approved a stock repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase up to an aggregate of $30 million of our common stock through December 31, 2014. We intend, from time to time, as conditions warrant, to repurchase stock in the open market. Purchases may be increased, decreased or discontinued at any time without prior notice. The plan does not obligate us to repurchase any specific number of shares and may be suspended at any time at management’s discretion. We currently have approximately 70 million outstanding shares of common stock.

 

“This share repurchase authorization reflects the board’s continued confidence in LeapFrog’s strategic direction, strong financial condition, underlying share value and ongoing commitment to maximizing shareholder value,” said Ray Arthur, Chief Financial Officer.

 

Guidance

 

“The year-on-year sales decline resulted in year-end inventory at retail being higher than last year,” said Ray Arthur, Chief Financial Officer. “We expect that this inventory plus current difficult retail conditions will negatively impact our net sales in the first and second quarters of 2014 and also for the full year. Regardless, we are in a strong market-leading position. We have an exciting and innovative line of products for 2014, a great brand and a strong cash position, and we’re generating meaningful cash flow. In 2013, we generated $78.9 million of operating cash flow, up 16% year-on-year.

“In 2014, we plan to continue to invest in our business to expand our product portfolio, extend our reach internationally, better connect with consumers and improve our business processes. Some of these investments are substantial, such as our investments in an improved web experience and new information technology systems. As a result, these investments will reduce our profitability in 2014 but position us for growth in the years ahead. We believe these investments we are making today will help us strengthen our leadership in educational entertainment around the world and provide long-term sales, earnings and cash flow growth which will drive shareholder value.”

 

For the first quarter of 2014, we expect:

 

·Net sales to be in the range of $45 million to $50 million compared to $83 million in the first quarter of 2013.
·Net loss per basic and diluted share (GAAP) to be in the range of ($0.20) to ($0.23).8 In the first quarter of 2013, net loss per basic and diluted share (GAAP) was ($0.04) and normalized net loss per basic and diluted share9 (non-GAAP) was ($0.05).

 

For the full-year 2014, we expect:

 

·Net sales to be in a range of $554 million to $580 million compared to $554 million in 2013.
·Net income per diluted share (GAAP) to be in the range of $0.18 to $0.25.8 For the full-year 2013, net income per diluted share (GAAP) was $1.19 and normalized net income per diluted share9 (non-GAAP) was $0.30.
·Capital expenditures to be in the range of $35 million to $45 million, compared to $35 million in 2013, as we make long-term, strategic investments in our business, particularly in our information technology systems. Capital expenditures include purchases of property and equipment and capitalization of product costs.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

 

This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures, specifically normalized net income (loss), normalized net income (loss) per basic or diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA.

 

Normalized net income (loss) is calculated as net income (loss) adjusted to reflect an effective 37.5% tax rate and excludes actual tax benefits and tax expenses. Normalized net income (loss) per basic or diluted share is calculated as normalized net income (loss) divided by weighted-average basic or diluted shares outstanding, as applicable. As required by SEC rules, we have provided a schedule with a reconciliation of normalized net income (loss) and normalized net income (loss) per basic and diluted share to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, net income (loss) and net income (loss) per basic and diluted share.

 

Management believes that normalized net income (loss) and normalized net income (loss) per basic or diluted share are some of the appropriate measures for evaluating the operating performance of the Company because of the significant swing in net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share as a result of the deferred tax valuation allowance release and other discrete tax items, and therefore, provides a more comparable measure of year-over-year operating results.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings (or net income) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, other expenses (income), and stock-based compensation. As required by SEC rules, we have provided an attached schedule with a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, net income.

 

Management believes adjusted EBITDA is one of the appropriate measures for evaluating the operating performance of the Company because it reflects the resources available for strategic opportunities including, among others, to invest in the business, strengthen the balance sheet, and make strategic acquisitions.

 

However, these non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP as more fully discussed in the Company's financial statements and filings with the SEC. As used herein, "GAAP" refers to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURE REGARDING NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP NET INCOME (LOSS) TO NORMALIZED NET INCOME (LOSS),

GAAP NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE TO NORMALIZED NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE,

AND GAAP NET INCOME TO ADJUSTED EBITDA

(In thousands)

(Unaudited)

 

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income (loss), a GAAP measure, to normalized net income (loss), a non-GAAP measure, where available. Normalized net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) adjusted to reflect an effective 37.5% tax rate and exclude actual tax benefits and tax expenses. Normalized net income (loss) per share is calculated as normalized net income (loss) divided by weighted-average basic or diluted shares outstanding, as applicable.
