Q3 2024 Revenue increases 25%; Reiterates 2024 Outlook
TORONTO, Oct. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ - Spin Master Corp. ("Spin Master" or the "Company") (TSX: TOY) (www.spinmaster.com), a leading global children's entertainment company, today announced its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. The Company's full Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 is available under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.com) and posted on the Company's web site at www.spinmaster.com. All financial information is presented in United States dollars ("$", "dollars" and "US$") and has been rounded to the nearest hundred thousand, except per share amounts and where otherwise indicated.
Consolidated Financial Highlights for Q3 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023
"We are pleased with our revenue growth in third quarter, which was primarily driven by our Toys creative centre, including incremental revenue from Melissa & Doug," said Max Rangel, Spin Master's Global President & CEO. "Although the broader economic conditions remain a challenge, we generated toy sales growth across major markets reflecting our continued commitment to creating innovative products, powerful brands and magical play experiences. Both Entertainment and Digital Games revenue declined this quarter as a result of comparisons against the highly successful PAW Movie last year as well as lower in-game purchases in Toca Boca World. As part of our strategy of leveraging our IP across our creative centres, we launched Rubik's Match, a match-3 mobile digital game. We believe we are well positioned to continue to grow market share and maintain our leadership position within the children's entertainment industry through the execution of our long-term strategy and focus on reimagining everyday play."
"We delivered revenue growth of 25% in the third quarter, driven by an increase in gross product sales in our Toys creative centre," said Mark Segal, Spin Master's Chief Financial Officer. "Melissa & Doug performed well, with revenue of $155 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $49 million. We are executing effectively on the integration, delivering $4.5 million in net cost synergies year to date and we are continuing to identify revenue growth opportunities. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was up just under $9 million comparatively, excluding Melissa & Doug and the PAW Movie in the prior year. We are maintaining our outlook for 2024 for both Spin Master and Melissa & Doug. We continued to execute our capital allocation strategy and by the end of Q3, we repurchased over 2 million shares under our NCIB. Over the long term, we will continue to invest to drive growth, while also managing our costs and preserving financial flexibility to maximize shareholder value."
