TORONTO, Aug. 21, 2024 /CNW/ — Sabio Holdings Inc . (TSXV: SBIO) (OTCQB: SABOF) (the “Company” or “Sabio”), a California -based ad-tech company that specializes in delivering highly targeted ads, insights, and services in ad-supported streaming to top Fortune 100 brands, is pleased to announce its unaudited financial results for the second quarter ended June 30th, 2024. Unless otherwise indicated, all amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars.

“As our Q2 results illustrate, we continue to execute on our 2024 narrative and key operating attributes that will drive a sustainable and profitable growth model for the back-half of the year and going forward into 2025,” said Aziz Rahimtoola, CEO of Sabio.

He continued, “Our commitment to driving higher growth in Connected TV/OTT revenue, securing larger upfront commitments, and improving operating efficiencies has laid a strong foundation for our success. Our full tech stack — including App Science’s unique reach and insights with data integrity and fidelity at its core — has been instrumental in achieving a 91% customer retention rate. This positions us optimally as we enter our historical peak sales quarters for 2024.

It’s still anticipated that the company will seasonally benefit from political ad-spending as the election cycle continues in the US until the November election date. This macro-backdrop, complimented with Sabio’s ability to continually capture market share within the fast-growing ad-supported streaming space, will help lead to record sales and profitability for the company in 2024.”

“Despite the seasonal trends of the advertising business, where close to 70% of our annual revenues are typically generated in the second half of the year, we are pleased to have exited the first half of 2024 with the lowest first-half Adjusted EBITDA1 loss since becoming a public company in November 2021,” commented Sajid Premji, Sabio’s Chief Financial Officer.  “Sabio is firing on all cylinders as we enter the second half of 2024. Our 39% second-quarter sales growth in Connected TV/OTT ad-supported streaming continues to out-pace the market growth rate. Additionally, the predictability of our high reoccurring revenues, complimented with our recently announced record upfront commitments in our Q1 press release, will provide a springboard to near-term sales growth for the rest of 2024. 

As we continue to focus on cost discipline to support a sustainable growth model, we expect material improvements in operating leverage in the second half of the year and a return to Adjusted EBITDA profitability.” 

Second Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights

Sabio delivered record second quarter revenues of US$8.9 million in Q2/2024, an increase of 11% from US$8.0 million in Q2/2023.Connected TV/OTT sales as a category increased by 39% to US$6.9 million, compared to US$5.0 million in the prior year’s quarter, continuing the trend of Sabio’s dominant sales category, representing 77% of the Company’s sales mix, up from 62% in the prior year’s quarter.

The facility has a three (3)-year term and is secured against all of the assets of the Company.

Outlook

Sabio exited the first half of 2024 with the highest first-half consolidated revenues in its history, driven by double-digit revenue growth in the second quarter.  The Company enters the second half of the year where, historically, close to 70% of annual revenues are typically generated, armed with record upfront commitments, high reoccurring revenues (91% in the first half) and lowest first-half Adjusted EBITDA1 loss as a public company. Management expects accelerating revenues and a lower cost infrastructure to culminate in the quarters ahead to a return to meaningful Adjusted EBITDA1 profitability for the year.  As Connected TV/OTT ad-supported streaming continues to be one of the fastest-growing channels in advertising, Sabio’s 34% revenue growth in this category during the first half of 2024 demonstrates that we are continuing to outpace the broader market and take market share. In further testament to the strength of our core business, when normalized for advocacy and political spending, Connected TV/OTT streaming sales grew 52% in the second quarter alone compared to the same period last year.

The inherent cost efficiencies in transitioning to this growing Connected TV/OTT streaming sales model, away from one more dependent on mobile display, has resulted in continued gains in operating leverage in the first half of 2024, driving a $2.3 million reduction in our first half Adjusted EBITDA1 loss compared to the prior year’s six-month period. As our operating infrastructure continues to become more efficient, our sales model continues to become more predictable.

This predictability helps derisk our revenue model and sets the stage for continued sustainable growth, as supported by:

High rates of reoccurring revenue, with 91% of consolidated revenues in the first half of 2024 coming from repeat customers (up from 74% in the first half of 2023), driven by our proprietary App Science™ cross-screen graph capabilities. 70% of existing brands increased their spend with Sabio compared to the prior year’s period;The ongoing addition of top-tier clients, with 28% of the brands that spent with us during the first half being new logos to Sabio;Significant upfront commitments, including multi-million dollar political and advocacy insertion orders for campaigns running during the last half 2024; andThe most diversified vertical mix in Sabio’s history.

Management continues to anticipate a return to double-digit consolidated revenue growth in 2024, surpassing both 2023 and our record-setting 2022 mid-term election year. With a streamlined operating infrastructure, Sabio expects further improvements in operating leverage and Adjusted EBITDA1 profitability through the second half of 2024. Management plans to allocate its improved cash flows to strengthen working capital, through both debt repayment and increased cash reserves. Combined with the closing of a new, multi-year credit line which brings both increased liquidity and long-term stability to our balance sheet, these measures will enhance balance sheet flexibility as we capitalize on several near-term growth drivers, including a new programmatic Connected TV/OTT offering set to launch in the second half of the year.

Use of Non-IFRS Measures

This press release makes reference to certain non-IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) measures including, but not limited to, Adjusted EBITDA. These measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies and should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of financial information reported under IFRS. Rather, these non-IFRS measures are provided as additional information to complement IFRS measures by providing a further understanding of operations from management’s perspective.

Management uses adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) as a key financial metric to evaluate Sabio’s operating performance as a complement to results provided in accordance with IFRS. The term “Adjusted EBITDA”, as defined by management, refers to net income (loss) before adjusting earnings for finance costs, income taxes, stock-based compensation, amortization, non-recurring items, and severance costs.  Refer to reconciliation to Adjusted EBITDA in the Company’s MD&A for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, copies of which can be found under Sabio Holdings Inc.’s profile on SEDAR Plus at www.sedarplus.ca.

Management believes that the items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are not connected to and do not represent the operating performance of Sabio. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful supplemental information as it provides an indication of the results generated by Sabio’s main business activities prior to taking into consideration how those activities are financed and taxed as well as expenses related to stock-based compensation, depreciation, amortization, restructuring costs, other expense (income), and foreign exchange (gain) loss. Accordingly, management believes that this measure may also be useful to investors in enhancing their understanding of Sabio’s operating performance. It is a key measure used by Sabio’s management and board of directors to understand and evaluate Sabio’s operating performance, to prepare annual budgets, and to help develop operating plans.

Forward-Looking Statements

The Company has assumed that the material factors referred to herein will not cause such forward-looking statements and information to differ materially from actual results or events. However, there can be no assurance that such assumptions will reflect the actual outcome of such items or factors. The forward-looking information contained in this press release is expressly qualified by this cautionary statement and is made as of the date hereof. The Company disclaims any intention and has no obligation or responsibility, except as required by law, to update or revise any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. 

This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities in any jurisdiction.

Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Service Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
