Conference Call Begins Today at 4:30pm EST

 

Wayne, PA — (Marketwired) – November 10, 2016 – ICTV Brands, Inc. (OTCQX: ICTV), (CSE: ITV), a digitally focused direct response marketing and international branding company focused on the health, wellness and beauty sector, today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.

 

Third Quarter 2016 Highlights:

 

  Positive cash flows from operations of $104K
     
  Launched our website for the United Kingdom end of Q3
     
  Incremental E-commerce sales of $163K which includes Bed Bath and Beyond, Walmart, JCPenney and Overstock and now Costco Canada which was launched in 3Q
     
  Streamlined expense structure resulting in $143K in decreased G&A expenses from prior year quarter
     
  Brick and Mortar retail sales of $78,000

 

Management Commentary:

 

Richard Ransom, President, stated, “Over the last year, our sales and marketing platform has expanded far beyond our traditional direct response television model. Today ICTV is proud to partner with over ten major North American retailers which distribute our flagship product DermaWand, as well as several of our other brands. We feel the investment in our omni channel platform has laid the foundation for ICTV to bring new products to market all around the globe. The work our team has done in this respect has positioned us to make the announced acquisition of the PhotoMedex consumer assets, including the world renowned no!no! hair removal brand, and creates the ability for ICTV to take advantage of similar opportunities in the future.”

 

Reported Financial Results:

 

Third Quarter 2016 Compared to Third Quarter 2015:

 

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2016 were $4.2 million, compared to $3.6 million in the prior year quarter, and $4.5 million in the second quarter of 2016. The year over year increase is attributable to higher media related expenditures, increased international sales and retail and e-commerece sales as the Company continues to broaden its media footprint with its push into additional e-commerce and retail outlets in the fourth quarter. Total selling and marketing expenses increased to $2.3 million from $2.0 million in the prior year quarter. Significant quarterly increases include media expense of $238,000 and internet marketing of $153,000, which were offset by decreases in production expense of $78,000. Total general and administrative expenses decreased to $1.0 million from $1.2 million in the prior year quarter, as a result of travel expenditure decreases of $15,000, payroll and employee benefit expense decreases of $40,000, consulting expense reductions of $9,000, and share based compensation decreases of $102,000. Net loss was ($262,000), compared to net loss of ($822,000) in the prior year quarter. Earnings per share (EPS) was ($0.01), as compared to ($0.03) in the comparable prior year quarter. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) was a loss of ($140,000) compared to EBITDA of ($663,000) in the prior year quarter.

 

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015

 

Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 were $12.5 million, decreasing from $19.7 million in the prior year period as a result of a decrease in media related expenditures. Total selling and marketing expenses decreased to $6.6 million from $10.0 million, decreasing as result of media expense decreases of $2.5 million, answering and customer service decreasing of $821,000, and merchant fee decreases of $188,000. Total general and administrative expenses decreased to $3.1 million from $4.2 million in the prior year period, as a result of bad debt expense decreases of $475,000, travel expenditure decreases of $152,000, payroll and employee benefit expense decreases of $157,000, consulting expense reductions of $82,000, and share based compensation decreases of $227,000. Net loss was ($951,000), compared to net loss of ($806,000). EPS was ($0.03) for both nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, and Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of ($470,000) compared to EBITDA of ($314,000).

 

   
 

 

Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2016

 

At September 30, 2016, we had $1.2 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $1.3 million at December 31, 2015, and had positive cash flow from operating activities of $104,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, compared to net cash used by operating activities of $974,000 in for the prior year period. Based on our current rate of cash outflows and cash on hand, management believes that its current cash will be sufficient to meet its anticipated cash needs for working capital for at least the next twelve months.
