“The integrated and assembled value of consumer products, Wizards and digital gaming, and entertainment is how we unlock the next level of return for our business and for our stakeholders,” said Brian Goldner, Hasbro’s chairman and chief executive officer. “We have simplified our structure to maximize our growth and provide a clearer view to the drivers of Hasbro revenues, profit, margin, and cash generation. Our Brand Blueprint thrives as we create value from these three areas of our business, and we are building scale behind them to drive more profitable revenue and meet the needs of our consumers and audiences with innovation and creativity for a modern era.

“Our expectation is that we return to growth in revenues, earnings and EBITDA in 2021,” continued Goldner. “This includes revenue growth in all three segments to potentially achieve double-digit revenue growth across Hasbro for the year. After increasing adjusted operating profit margins by 110 basis points last year, we believe we can maintain a similar level in 2021 while supporting new gaming and product launches and returning to 2019 levels of TV and film revenue. Our investments and plans are intended to drive revenue growth across each segment over a multi-year period. As we grow, we expand the reach of our brands to deliver higher operating margin and enhanced cash generation with the potential for Hasbro to reach operating margin levels greater than 16% and cash generation close to the billion-dollar level over the medium term.”

New Reporting Segments

Hasbro unveiled new financial reporting segments, Consumer Products, Wizards of the Coast and Digital Gaming, and Entertainment, aligned to the three drivers of its business and supported by a new management structure. The Company will begin reporting these segments with the first quarter earnings release in April 2021 and has provided historical data for the new segment structure below and in the tables attached.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The financial tables accompanying this press release include non-GAAP financial measures as defined under SEC rules, specifically Adjusted operating profit, which excludes, where applicable, the 2020 impact of eOne acquisition and related costs, purchased intangible amortization, other severance costs and income tax expense associated with U.K tax reform. For 2019, Pro Forma Adjusted operating profit excludes the impact of purchased intangible amortization and certain charges incurred by eOne related to prior restructuring programs and other acquisitions. Also included in the financial tables are the non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA represents net earnings attributable to Hasbro, Inc. excluding interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes the impact of the charges/gains noted above, as well as for 2019, the charges associated with the settlement of the Company’s U.S. pension plan. The Company also excludes non-cash stock compensation from its measure of Adjusted EBITDA. As required by SEC rules, we have provided reconciliations on the attached schedules of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Management believes that Adjusted operating profit and Pro Forma Adjusted operating profit provides investors with an understanding of the underlying performance of our business absent unusual events. Management believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are appropriate measures for evaluating the operating performance of our business because they reflect the resources available for strategic opportunities including, among others, to invest in the business, strengthen the balance sheet and make strategic acquisitions. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, net earnings or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP as more fully discussed in our consolidated financial statements and filings with the SEC. As used herein, "GAAP" refers to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
