Q2 2019 Financial Summary:
Leaf Group is comprised of two reporting segments: Marketplaces
and Media.
For the second quarter of 2019:
- Total revenue increased 4% year-over-year from $34.3 million to
$35.8 million due to a 13% increase in Media revenue, partially
offset by a 2% decrease in Marketplaces revenue.
- Marketplaces revenue declined 2% year-over-year from $19.7
million to $19.2 million, reflecting a 10% year-over-year decline
in Society6 Group revenue and a 41% increase in Saatchi Art Group
revenue year-over-year.
- Media revenue increased 13% year-over-year from $14.7 million
to $16.6 million. The increase in Media revenue was attributable to
the acquisition of Well+Good in June 2018 and an increase in
revenue from our premium sites, including Hunker, partially offset
by a decrease in revenue from Livestrong.com.
- Net loss was $(6.8) million for the quarter, declining 7%
year-over-year, and Adjusted EBITDA was $(1.9) million for the
quarter, reflecting a decline of $1.3 million year-over-year.
- Cash and cash equivalents was $9.9 million at period end with
no debt outstanding.
- On a consolidated basis, Leaf Group’s properties reached over
66 million monthly unique visitors in the U.S. in June 2019
(source: June 2019 U.S. comScore).

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement its consolidated financial statements, which are
prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”),
Leaf Group uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, as described
below. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented to enhance
the user’s overall understanding of Leaf Group’s financial
performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or
superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in
accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures presented in
this release, together with the GAAP financial results, are the
primary measures used by the Company’s management and board of
directors to understand and evaluate the Company’s financial
performance and operating trends, including period-to-period
comparisons, because they exclude certain expenses and gains that
management believes are not indicative of the Company’s core
operating results. Management also uses these measures to prepare
and update the Company’s short and long term financial and
operational plans, to evaluate investment decisions, and in its
discussions with investors, commercial bankers, equity research
analysts and other users of the Company’s financial statements.
Accordingly, the Company believes that these non-GAAP financial
measures provide useful information to investors and others in
understanding and evaluating the Company’s operating results in the
same manner as the Company’s management and in comparing operating
results across periods and to those of Leaf Group’s peer
companies.
The use of non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations
because they do not reflect all items of income and expense, or
cash flows, that affect the Company’s financial performance and
operations. An additional limitation of non-GAAP financial measures
is that they do not have standardized meanings, and therefore other
companies, including peer companies, may use the same or similarly
named measures but exclude or include different items or use
different computations. Management compensates for these
limitations by reconciling these non-GAAP financial measures to
their most comparable GAAP financial measures in the tables
captioned “Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included
at the end of this release. Investors and others are encouraged to
review the Company’s financial information in its entirety and not
rely on a single financial measure.
The Company defines Adjusted earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) as
net income (loss) excluding interest (income) expense, income tax
expense (benefit), and certain other non-cash or non-recurring
items impacting net income (loss) from time to time, principally
comprised of depreciation and amortization, stock-based
compensation, contingent payments to certain key employees/equity
holders of acquired businesses and other payments attributable to
acquisition, disposition or corporate realignment activities.
Management believes that the exclusion of certain expenses and
gains in calculating Adjusted EBITDA provides a useful measure for
period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s underlying core
revenue and operating costs that is focused more closely on the
current costs necessary to operate the Company’s businesses, and
reflects its ongoing business in a manner that allows for
meaningful analysis of trends. Management also believes that
excluding certain non-cash charges can be useful because the
amounts of such expenses is the result of long-term investment
decisions made in previous periods rather than day-to-day operating
decisions.
The Company defines Segment Operating
Contribution as earnings before corporate or unallocated
expenses and also excludes: (a) depreciation expense; (b)
amortization of intangible assets; (c) share-based compensation
expense; (d) interest and other income (expense); (e) income taxes;
and (f) contingent payments to certain key employees/equity holders
of acquired businesses. Management believes that the exclusion of
certain expenses and gains in calculating Segment Operating
Contribution provides a useful measure for period-to-period
comparisons of the segment’s underlying revenue and operating costs
that is focused more closely on the current costs necessary to
operate the segment, and reflects the segment’s ongoing business in
a manner that allows for meaningful analysis of trends. Management
also believes that excluding certain non-cash charges can be useful
because the amounts of such expenses is the result of long-term
investment decisions made in previous periods rather than
day-to-day operating decisions.
The Company defines Free Cash Flow as net cash
provided by (used in) operating activities net of cash flows from
contingent payments to certain key employees/equity holders of
acquired businesses; other payments attributable to acquisition,
disposition or corporate realignment activities; purchases of
property and equipment; and purchases of intangible assets.
Management believes that Free Cash Flow provides investors with
useful information to measure operating liquidity because it
reflects the Company’s underlying cash flows from recurring
operating activities after investing in capital assets and
intangible assets. Free Cash Flow is used by management, and may
also be useful for investors, to assess the Company’s ability to
generate cash flow for a variety of strategic opportunities,
including reinvesting in its businesses, pursuing new business
opportunities and potential acquisitions, paying dividends and
repurchasing shares.

Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The forward-looking
statements set forth in this press release include, among other
things, statements regarding potential synergies achieved from

Company’s future financial performance. In addition, statements
containing words such as “guidance,” “may,” “believe,”
“anticipate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “projections,”

constitute forward-looking statements. Actual results may differ
materially from the results predicted, and reported results should
not be considered an indication of future performance. These
forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties
regarding the Company’s future financial performance; could cause
actual results or developments to differ materially from those
indicated due to a number of factors affecting Leaf Group’s
operations, markets, products and services; and are based on
current expectations, estimates and projections about the Company’s
industry, financial condition, operating performance and results of
operations, including certain assumptions related thereto.
Potential risks and uncertainties that could affect the Company’s
operating and financial results are described in Leaf Group’s
annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31,
2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(http://www.sec.gov) on March 4, 2019, as such risks and

Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” These
risks and uncertainties include, among others: the Company’s

marketplaces and media properties; changes in the methodologies of
internet search engines, including ongoing algorithmic changes made
by Google, Bing and Yahoo!; the Company’s ability to attract new
and repeat customers and artists to its marketplaces and
successfully grow its marketplace businesses; the potential impact
on advertising-based revenue from lower ad unit rates, a reduction
in online advertising spending, a loss of advertisers, lower
advertising yields, increased availability of ad blocking software,
particularly on mobile devices and/or ongoing changes in ad unit
formats; the Company’s dependence on various agreements with a
specific business partner for a significant portion of its
advertising revenue; the effects of shifting consumption of media
content and online shopping from desktop to mobile devices and/or
social media platforms; the Company’s history of incurring net
operating losses; the Company’s ability to obtain capital when
desired on favorable terms; potential write downs, reserves against
or impairment of assets including receivables, goodwill,
intangibles (including media content) or other assets; the
Company’s ability to effectively integrate, manage, operate and
grow acquired businesses; the Company’s ability to retain key
personnel; the Company’s ability to prevent any actual or perceived
security breaches; the Company’s ability to expand its business
internationally; the review of strategic alternatives; the
Company’s ability to generate long-term value for its stockholders;
and any future actions that may be taken by activist stockholders.
From time to time, the Company may consider acquisitions or
divestitures that, if consummated, could be material. Any
forward-looking statements regarding financial metrics are based
upon the assumption that no such acquisition or divestiture is
consummated during the relevant periods. If an acquisition or
divestiture were consummated, actual results could differ
materially from any forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking
statement made by the Company in this press release is based only
on information currently available to the Company and speaks only
as of the date on which it is made. The Company undertakes no
obligation to revise or update any forward-looking information,
whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time,
