    来源: Nasdaq GlobeNewswire / 10 8月 2021 16:01:00   America/New_York

    LOS ANGELES, Aug. 10, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PLBY Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: PLBY) (“PLBY Group” or the “Company”), a leading pleasure and leisure lifestyle company and owner of Playboy, one of the most recognizable and iconic brands in the world, today provided financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021.

    Ben Kohn, Chief Executive Officer of PLBY Group, stated, “We are pleased to report another successful quarter that demonstrates the powerful combination of our growing direct-to-consumer business, an optimized licensing operation and scalable digital offerings. On the direct-to-consumer side, we saw great traction on Playboy.com with expanded merchandise offerings and strategic influencer marketing. In addition, the second quarter marked continued strong performance in our licensing business and our entry into blockchain-powered offerings with our first NFT collection.”

    Mr. Kohn continued, “We are also very excited by our acquisition of Honey Birdette, the fast-growing, luxury lingerie and lifestyle brand. We are eager to integrate Honey Birdette’s operations into our direct-to-consumer infrastructure and to help accelerate the high-end brand’s growth in new regions. The Honey Birdette team brings immense experience in product design, sourcing and direct-to-consumer strategies that will contribute to our work building the leading global pleasure and leisure lifestyle platform.”

    Second Quarter 2021 Financial Highlights

    • Revenue grew 44% year-over-year, to $49.9 million, driven by growth in both direct-to-consumer and licensing revenues.
    • Direct-to-consumer revenue grew 88% year-over-year, to $28.0 million, and licensing revenue grew 12% year-over-year, to $15.4 million.
    • Net loss was $8.9 million, largely driven by $7.9 million of non-recurring expenses related to the acquisition of Honey Birdette, refinancing of debt, and amortization of a one-time non-cash inventory valuation step-up as part of the purchase accounting resulting from the acquisition of Lovers in March 2021.
    • Adjusted EBITDA was $5.9 million and was impacted by a full quarter of public company expenses, in addition to technology investments being made to provide a superior and unified direct-to-consumer experience.

    EBITDA Reconciliation

    This release presents the financial measure earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or “EBITDA”, and Adjusted EBITDA, which are not financial measures under the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). “EBITDA” is defined as net income or loss before interest, income tax expense or benefit, and depreciation and amortization. “Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as EBITDA adjusted for stock-based compensation and other special items determined by management. Adjusted EBITDA is intended as a supplemental measure of our performance that is neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP. We believe that the use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial measures with those of comparable companies, which may present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. However, investors should be aware that when evaluating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, we may incur future expenses similar to those excluded when calculating these measures. In addition, our presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures computed by other companies, because all companies may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same fashion.

    In addition to adjusting for non-cash stock-based compensation, we typically adjust for nonoperating expenses and income, such as management fees paid to our largest stockholder, merger related bonus payments, non-recurring special projects including the implementation of internal controls, expenses associated with financing activities, acquisition related inventory step-up amortization and costs, the expense associated with reorganization and severance resulting in the elimination or rightsizing of specific business activities or operations as we transform from a print and digital media business to a commerce centric business.

    Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA on a supplemental basis. Investors should review the reconciliation of net loss to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA below and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

    The following table reconciles the Company’s net loss to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:
