SFX ENTERTAINMENT REPORTS THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS

AND PROVIDES UPDATE ON RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

 

NEW YORK — (November 14, 2014) — SFX Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ: SFXE) today reported financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

 

Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2014 rose 194.5% to $143.5 million while revenue for the first nine months of 2014 increased 199.9% to $258.8 million.  Revenue in the 2014 third quarter included $114.7 million of revenue (79.9% of total revenue) from festivals and live events that were produced, promoted, licensed or managed by SFX during the period.  During the three months ended September 30, 2014, SFX produced and promoted a total of 267 events, which attracted over 1,559,000 attendees, including 27 festivals that each attracted over 10,000 attendees.  Platform revenue, which represents SFX’s 365-day a year engagement with fans outside of live events and includes sales of digital music, ticketing fees and commissions, and certain marketing and digital activities, totaled $28.8 million (20.1% of total revenue) for the three months ended September 30, 2014.

 

Direct costs for the three months ended September 30, 2014 totaled $110.0 million, with costs from Live representing $93.8 million, or 85.3% of total direct costs, while platform costs related to products sold was $16.2 million, or 14.7% of total direct costs.  Direct costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 totaled $194.4 million.

 

Net income and diluted earnings per share for the three month period was $2.8 million and nil, respectively, while net loss and net loss per share for the nine month period was $(94.2) million and $(1.40), respectively.

 

Pro forma revenue (a non-GAAP measure, see definition and reconciliation below) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $289.2 million and $150.7 million, respectively, while pro forma adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure, see definition and reconciliation below) for the respective periods was $15.0 million and a loss of $2.1 million, respectively.

 

In the third quarter ended September 30, 2014, the Company generated strong pro forma same festival growth (for festivals held in both the 2014 and 2013 third quarters), as attendance grew 26% and EBITDA rose by 69%. Excluding Rock in Rio, pro forma festival attendance grew 31% year over year, as the company held 30 festivals versus 25 in the comparable year-ago period.  Third quarter pro forma festival attendance declined 20% year over year to approximately 1,251,000, with approximately 612,000 of the pro forma festival attendance decline reflecting that the Rock in Rio festival was held in the third quarter of 2013 and not 2014, as it is held every other year.  Attendance at events other than

 



 

festivals declined 6% to approximately 377,000, reflecting the Company’s continued focus on larger events while hosting a fewer number of smaller events.

 

“The third quarter of 2014 was one of growth and transformation for SFX and I am excited by the tremendous progress made by our entire team,” said Robert F.X. Sillerman, Chairman and CEO of SFX.  “During the third quarter, we extended our success in launching our most popular festivals in new geographies, rolled out highly customized programs for global flagship brands, expanded and introduced new multi-year marketing partnerships, re-launched our Beatport portal and further developed our online assets to better engage and delight our fans. With streamlined operations that are laser focused on providing the best possible experience for fans worldwide, the cash flow generated in the third quarter allowed SFX to invest an additional $11 million toward future initiatives, an investment that was expensed through our income statement. Upcoming quarters will see the benefit of these investments for all stakeholders.

 

Mr. Sillerman continued, “Our festival brands have never been more popular and we successfully leveraged that popularity to dramatically expand our geographic base of events.  For example, TomorrowWorld Atlanta, the North American version of the world’s largest EMC festival Tomorrowland, saw attendance rise 24% and EBITDA grow by approximately $10 million from the startup losses experienced in the event’s debut last year.  Demand for Tomorrowland Brazil next May has been nothing short of sensational, generating over 176,000 pre-registration requests in twelve hours and selling out entirely in less than three hours.  Furthermore, we are making great progress in planning the highly anticipated launch of Rock in Rio in Las Vegas, which also takes place next May.

 

Our momentum in terms of establishing and executing global and local sponsorships and marketing partnerships also continues. Over the last eleven months SFX has developed important long-term relationships with leading brands, including the third quarter announcement of our multi-year global partnership with MasterCard.  We believe these partnerships confirm that the SFX platform is a highly effective and efficient means for major global sponsors to reach millennials around the world and during the third quarter we recognized approximately $10.0 million of revenue from these activities at margins in line with our expectations. In August, SFX successfully completed the 2014 lineup of Anheuser-Busch InBev marketing events which included one Corona SunSets events in the United Kingdom, two in Mexico, one in Ibiza and one in Canada.  This was followed by a new marketing partnership with AMBEV, Latin America’s largest beer company, to create six beach-themed dance music events around the Skol brand during the current quarter and first quarter of 2015.  More recently, we entered into a strategic alliance with PRISA Radio, the world’s largest owner of Spanish-language radio stations, to co-promote SFX festivals in Spain, Portugal and across Central and South America.

 

“With our focus on establishing a global platform and expanding the reach of our marketing agreements, we remain as committed as ever to providing our fans with the best possible experience and fostering the social connections they demand.  In the third quarter we successfully launched the first consolidation of our digital products through Beatport, which will be the catalyst for a single destination for the hundreds of millions of users who have viewed our content over the past 12 months.  We are further building our Beatport and Beatport Pro platform for DJs and EMC fans to create a one-stop shop for all their electronic music needs.

 

Sillerman concluded, “Our profitable third quarter was another highly productive period for SFX Entertainment as we advanced several strategic initiatives, thus further establishing our global platform

 



 

for EMC-related events and social connections.  At the same time, we continue to institute a range of centralized corporate services that are delivering higher levels of efficiency enterprise-wide.  We believe our success in the third quarter and year-to-date 2014 demonstrates the tremendous long-term economic potential in our model that will be evident in our 2015 operating results and beyond.”

A webcast replay will be available for 90 days following the live event at http://investor.sfxii.com/events-calendar.  Please call five minutes in advance to ensure that you are connected.

 

Definitions

 

The following definitions apply to these terms as used throughout this press release and the exhibits:

 

·                  EBITDA — represents net income (loss) before other income (loss), interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash equity-based compensation expense, and non-recurring items, including financing and other transaction costs.

·                  Pro forma adjusted EBITDA — includes the EBITDA of SFX, plus EBITDA from acquisitions as if owned from the beginning of the period, cost savings, non-recurring items including financing and other transaction costs, severance, insurance recoveries related to cancelled festivals and adjustments related to content expenses.

·                  Pro forma revenue — means the revenue of SFX and all acquisitions as if owned from the beginning of the period.

 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

We prepare our financial statements in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Within this press release, we make reference to EBITDA, pro forma adjusted EBITDA, and pro forma revenue, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company includes these non-GAAP financial measures because management believes they are useful to investors in that they provide for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making.

 

Management uses EBITDA to convey supplemental information to investors regarding the Company’s performance excluding the impact of certain non-cash charges, costs associated with our initial public offering and other special items that can affect the comparability of results from quarter to quarter.  In

 



 

particular, EBITDA is a key measure used by our management and board of directors to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget, and to develop short- and long-term operational plans. Of note, the elimination of certain expenses in calculating EBITDA can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our core business.  In addition, the Company believes that pro forma adjusted EBITDA and pro forma revenue present important information to investors regarding the current business, prospects and financial condition of the Company that would not otherwise be available.

 

Accordingly, the Company believes the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, is a useful financial analysis tool that can assist investors in assessing the Company’s operating performance and underlying prospects. This analysis should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. This analysis, as well as the other information in this press release, should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and footnotes contained in the documents that the Company files with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company in this press release may be different from the methods used by other companies. For more information on the Non-GAAP financial measures, please see the Reconciliation of GAAP financial measures to Non-GAAP financial measures table in the press release.
