LEAPFROG REPORTS FIRST QUARTER FISCAL
YEAR 2016
FINANCIAL RESULTS
EMERYVILLE, Calif.—August 4, 2015—LeapFrog Enterprises,
Inc. (NYSE:LF) today announced financial results for the first quarter fiscal year 2016. The Company’s fiscal year covers
the twelve-month period ending March 31, 2016.
Summary of financial results for the quarter ended June 30,
2015 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2014:
| · | Consolidated net sales were $38.7 million, down 18%. U.S. segment
net sales were down 9%, and international segment net sales were down 35%. |
| · | Net loss per basic and diluted share was $0.39 compared to prior year
net loss per basic and diluted share of $0.23. |
| · | Cash and cash equivalents were $88.2 million as of June 30, 2015 compared
to $199.2 million a year ago. |
“We are in the very early
stages of our transformation and our financial results are on plan as we reset our business. Our cost savings initiatives are beginning
to have an impact and we will continue to implement measures to run our business more effectively. With that said, I am encouraged
by the progress we achieved in the quarter on the journey to turn around our Company. A number of our carry-forward product lines
are showing signs of positive momentum and many of our new product introductions for fall 2015 have started to ship,” said
John Barbour, Chief Executive Officer.
“LeapFrog is an exceptional
brand. We strive to leverage our unique set of valuable assets to deliver compelling products and services and stronger financial
results. At LeapFrog, we create award-winning products and services that combine developmental
expertise, innovative technology and a child’s love for fun. This will continue to be our focus as we broaden our portfolio
with new products to engage, inspire and enrich a child’s developmental journey,” continued Mr. Barbour.
Financial Overview for the First Quarter Fiscal Year 2016
Ended June 30, 2015 Compared to the Quarter Ended June 30, 2014
First fiscal quarter net sales were $38.7 million, down 18%
compared to $47.0 million last year, and included a 2% negative impact from changes in currency exchange rates. In the U.S. segment,
net sales were $28.0 million, down 9% compared to $30.7 million last year. In the International segment, net sales were $10.6 million,
down 35% compared to $16.3 million last year, and included a 7% negative impact from changes in currency exchange rates.
Operating expenses for the first fiscal quarter were $34.3 million,
down 1% compared to $34.5 million last year. Prior year operating expenses included a $1.1 million reversal of prior period incentive
compensation accruals that was not repeated in the current quarter. Loss from operations was $27.1 million, up $1.4 million or
5% from the prior period loss of $25.7 million due to sales declines.

Net loss for the first fiscal quarter was $27.3 million, or
$0.39 per basic and diluted share, and included a tax benefit of $0.2 million. Prior year net loss of $16.4 million, or $0.23 per
basic and diluted share, included a tax benefit of $9.7 million, or $0.14 per basic and diluted share.
Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA1 for the quarter was negative
$17.7 million compared to negative EBITDA of $16.2 million a year ago.
“While there
is significant work ahead of us, we believe we have the right strategies in place to return the Company to growth. Our
outlook for the current fiscal year 2016, ending March 31, 2016, is unchanged. We will continue
to take steps to reduce operating expenses and manage our business responsibly as we position ourselves for a successful
2015 holiday season.
Our longer term plan is to achieve
double-digit sales growth and positive cash flow in fiscal year 2017, which includes holiday 2016. We will remain focused
on product innovation, execution and operational efficiencies to help build a business with sustainable revenue and income growth.
To accomplish these plans we will manage our cash balances, capital expenditures and balance sheet prudently,” said Ray Arthur,
Chief Financial Officer.

financial tables.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures, specifically
adjusted EBITDA.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings (or net income (loss))
before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, goodwill impairment, impairment of long-lived assets, other expenses
(income) and stock-based compensation. As required by SEC rules, we have provided an attached schedule with a reconciliation of
adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, net income.
Management believes adjusted EBITDA is one of the appropriate
measures for evaluating the operating performance of the Company because it reflects the resources available for strategic opportunities
including, among others, to invest in the business, strengthen the balance sheet and make strategic acquisitions.
However, these non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition
to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP as more fully discussed
in the Company's financial statements and filings with the SEC. Additionally, these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to
similarly-titled measures used by other companies. As used herein, "GAAP" refers to accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.
Forward-Looking Statements
This news release contains forward-looking statements that involve
risks and uncertainties, including statements regarding the stage of our transformation, our financial results being on plan as
we reset our business, the impact of our cost savings initiatives, the continued implementation of measures to run our business
more effectively, our journey to turn around our Company, the positive momentum of our carry forward product lines, LeapFrog being

our cash balances, capital expenditures and balance sheet prudently. Our actual results may differ materially from those expressed
or implied by such forward-looking statements. The risks that could cause our results to differ include, without limitation, our
ability to correctly predict highly changeable consumer preferences and product trends, our ability to continue to develop new
products and services, our ability to maintain adequate inventory levels, our reliance on a small group of retailers for the majority
of our gross sales, deterioration of global economic conditions, the effectiveness of our marketing and advertising efforts, our
ability to compete effectively with competitors, our ability to maintain or acquire licenses, our ability to attract and retain
highly skilled personnel, the sufficiency of our liquidity, the impact of potential impairment charges or valuation allowances,

property rights, defects in our products, the risks associated with international operations, costs or changes associated with
compliance with laws and regulations, negative political developments, changes in trade relations, armed hostilities, terrorism,
labor strikes, natural disasters or public health issues, failure to successfully implement new strategic operating initiatives,
impacts from acquisitions, mergers or dispositions, continued ownership by a few stockholders of a significant percentage of the
voting power in the Company and the volatility of our stock price. These risks and others are discussed under “Risk Factors”
in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including our most recent Form 10-K and Form 10-Q. All information
