Third Quarter 2019 Revenue of $6.0 Million, Up 10% Year-Over-Year
IRVINE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Allied Esports Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ: AESE) (“Allied Esports” or the “Company”), a global esports entertainment company, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2019 as well as an update on several key business initiatives. As previously announced, the Company was formed on August 9, 2019 as a result of the completion of a business combination among Black Ridge Acquisition Corp., Allied Esports International, Inc., WPT Enterprises, Inc. and other affiliates.
Commenting on the Company’s third quarter results, Allied Esports’ CEO Frank Ng said, “In our first quarter as a public esports company, Allied Esports delivered solid results driven by continued execution of our operating model along with early benefits from our strategic alliances with Simon and TV Azteca. At the topline, total revenues expanded more than 10% compared to the third quarter of last year, with each of our three strategic pillars—In-person, Multiplatform Content, and Interactive—generating year-over-year growth. I am also pleased with the progress we are making in our partnership with our strategic investors, Simon and TV Azteca, as evidenced by the launch of the Simon Cup esports tournament as well as the premiere of WPT® television programming and social gaming in Mexico across various distribution channels via TV Azteca. Looking ahead to the fourth quarter, momentum continues to build and we expect a strong finish to the year.”
Third Quarter 2019 Financial Results
Revenues: Total revenues in the third quarter of 2019 increased 10.2% to $6.0 million from $5.5 million in the third quarter of 2018, reflecting growth from all strategic pillars.
In-person revenues increased by approximately $0.4 million, or 17%, to approximately $2.6 million for the third quarter of 2019 from approximately $2.2 million in the third quarter of last year. The increase in In-person revenues is driven by the Allied business, particularly revenue generated from Allied Esports’ flagship venue, the HyperX Esports Arena Las Vegas, which opened its doors in March of 2018.
Multiplatform Content revenues increased by approximately $0.1 million, or 9%, to approximately $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from approximately $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in Multiplatform Content revenues all relate to the WPT business, with increased sponsorship revenue of $0.2 million being the greatest contributor.
Interactive revenues increased by approximately $0.1 million, or 4%, to approximately $2.4 million for the third quarter of 2019 from approximately $2.3 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in Interactive revenues all relates to the WPT business. Increases in product licensing revenue ($0.1 million) and social gaming revenue ($0.2 million) were the primary drivers for the increase. WPT managed social gaming in-house in 2018, but has licensed out the product, resulting in a $0.2 million decrease in the third quarter of 2019 period as compared to a year ago.

Costs and expenses: Total costs and expenses for the third quarter decreased 17.1% to $9.9 million from $11.9 million in the third quarter of 2018. The year-over-year decrease was primarily related to the $3.3 million impairment investment in the prior year period without a corresponding expense in the third quarter of 2019. This was partially offset by increased In-person expenses and higher SG&A, including public company costs.

Net loss attributed to Allied Esports for the third quarter of 2019 improved to $4.3 million, compared to a net loss of $6.7 million in the prior year period.
Third quarter adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, was ($2.1) million from ($1.2) million in the third quarter of 2018. A reconciliation of the GAAP-basis net loss to adjusted EBITDA is provided in the table at the end of this press release.
At quarter-end, the cash position totaled $14.3 million, including $5.0 million of restricted cash, compared to $10.5 million at December 31, 2018. The increase was due to the proceeds from the merger. The Company’s convertible debt totaled $14.0 million. As of September 30, 2019, the Company’s basic and diluted common shares outstanding totaled 23.1 million shares.
Operational Update
Allied Esports
The Company held 85 events at its flagship location, HyperX Esports Arena Las Vegas, during the quarter, including notable events such as, Twitch Prime Crown Cup, EVO Official Red Bull After Party, HyperX Kickoff to WoW Classic, Newegg FragFest and the Company’s lineup of weekly original programming, including Wednesday Whiffs, Friday Frags and Saturday Night Speedway.
The HyperX Esports Trucks in North America and in Europe activated with sponsors such as HyperX, Lenovo, Intel, Warsteiner and Acer, and were deployed at eight events, including Anime Expo, VidCon, Gamescom, Wacken Open Air, GameStop Expo and Scotland’s Resonate Total Gaming Festival.
Fortress Esports, the newest member of the Allied Esports Property Network covering Australia and New Zealand, released renderings and announced the planned opening of its first location in 2020 at Australia’s largest shopping mall, Emporium, in Melbourne, Australia.
Allied Esports and TV Azteca produced two esports events out of Mexico City: Glory Road, a Smash Ultimate event featuring top players Samsora and 2019 EVO Champion, MKLeo, and Kombat to Glory, a Mortal Kombat event with Captain Morgan. The events were live streamed across TV Azteca’s social and digital platforms.
As part of its strategic partnership with Simon, the Company launched a new national esports tournament in the third quarter, the Simon Cup, which exemplifies all three pillars of Allied Esports’ three pillar strategy. The tournament combines online and in-person qualifying rounds and events in the New York and Los Angeles markets and was activated using on-mall advertising inventory at 13 Simon destinations, with appearances by popular influencers from FaZe Clan to drive participation. The Grand Final will be streamed live from HyperX Esports Arena Las Vegas on November 23, 2019 on Allied Esports’ distribution channels as well as simulcast on popular FaZe Clan member NickMercs’ Twitch channel. Through this partnership, the Company has developed an online platform enabling participant registration and tournament results tracking while creating a replicable offering together with Simon that engages with sponsors and retailers.

A localized version of the WPT television show for the Mexico market premiered on Channel 7 in July and coincided with the launch of the social gaming platform in Mexico, WPTGO. The show has already garnered more than 2.5 million weekly viewers.
Season XVII of the World Poker Tour featured more than 60 global events, which will likely grow higher in Season XVIII, starting with the Zynga Poker WPT500 in Las Vegas. The WPT and its naming sponsors, Baccarat and Hublot, enter another season of partnership for Season XVIII.
In September, the World Poker Tour hosted global events across 10 countries and 4 continents, including Asia, Africa, Europe, and North America.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
As a supplement to our financial measures presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), Allied Esports Entertainment presents certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or as more important than, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the items associated with the company’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP.
Allied Esports Entertainment provides net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share in accordance with GAAP. In addition, Allied Esports Entertainment provides EBITDA (defined as GAAP net income (loss) before interest (income) expense, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization). The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding stock-based compensation and impairment losses.
In the future, Allied Esports Entertainment may also consider whether other items should also be excluded in calculating the non-GAAP financial measures used by the company. Management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with additional useful information to measure Allied Esports Entertainment’s financial and operating performance. In particular, the measures facilitate comparison of operating performance between periods and help investors to better understand the operating results of Allied Esports Entertainment by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the company’s core business, operating results, or future outlook. Additionally, we consider quantitative and qualitative factors in assessing whether to adjust for the impact of items that may be significant or that could affect an understanding of our ongoing financial and business performance or trends. Internally, management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, along with others, in assessing the company’s operating results, and measuring compliance with the requirements of the company’s debt financing agreements, as well as in planning and forecasting.
Allied Esports Entertainment’s non-GAAP financial measures are not based on a comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles, and the terms non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per share, and non-GAAP or adjusted EBITDA do not have a standardized meaning. Therefore, other companies may use the same or similarly named measures, but exclude different items, which may not provide investors a comparable view of Allied Esports Entertainment’s performance in relation to other companies.
Management compensates for the limitations resulting from the exclusion of these items by considering the impact of the items separately and by considering Allied Esports Entertainment’s GAAP, as well as non-GAAP, results and outlook, and by presenting the most comparable GAAP measures directly ahead of non-GAAP measures, and by providing a reconciliation that indicates and describes the adjustments made.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When used in this press release, the words “estimates,” “projected,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “forecasts,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes,” “seeks,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “future,” “propose” and variations of these words or similar expressions (or the negative versions of such words or expressions) are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, conditions or results, and involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside the control of the parties, that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Important factors, among others, that may affect actual results or outcomes include: the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the business combination; the ability to meet Nasdaq’s continued listing standards; costs related to the business combination; AESE’s ability to execute on its business plan; the ability to retain key personnel; potential litigation; and general economic and market conditions impacting demand for AESE’s services.
