MIAMI, Nov. 18, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Motorsport Games Inc. (NASDAQ: MSGM) (“Motorsport Games” or the “Company”) today reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2022 (“Q3 2022”). The Company has also posted to the Company’s investor relations website a Q3 2022 Quarter End Review video and a Q3 2022 earnings slide deck, which highlight certain key milestones that occurred in the period, as well as an updated Investor Presentation.

Dmitry Kozko, Chief Executive Officer of Motorsport Games, commented, “During Q3 2022, Motorsport Games announced our official game of the 2022 NASCAR Cup Series season for Nintendo Switch, NASCAR Rivals. Launched in October, NASCAR Rivals helps fans take the competition of NASCAR with them anywhere they go. The 2022 Season Update DLC for NASCAR 21: Ignition was also released in October, bringing the full line-up of 2022 drivers, teams and paint-schemes along with three Next Gen cars. For our racing simulation fans, we delivered the quarterly feature update and content for rFactor 2. September brought the start of the 2022-23 Le Mans Virtual Series with the 8 Hours of Bahrain in September. Our teams brought the thrill and excitement of motorsports to fans with on-site activations and hot-lap competitions at INDYCAR and BTCC races, as well as at the SALT conference in New York City.”    

Kozko added, “As previously announced in September 2022, we implemented the 2022 Restructuring Program to improve operating costs, which is expected to generate annualized cost reductions of approximately $4 million by the end of 2023. The goal of the 2022 Restructuring Program is to build a stronger global business operation, enhance the Company’s cost efficiency and improve the Company’s operating margins. Also, on November 10, 2022, we completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split in an effort to re-gain compliance with NASDAQ’s minimum closing bid price requirement for continued listing. Developing consumer-preferred products continue to be the main focus for the Company and our resilient team.”

Financial Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022

Revenues for Q3 2022 were $1.2 million, as compared to $2.1 million for Q3 2021. The $0.9 million, or 43%, decrease in Q3 2022 revenues when compared to Q3 2021 reflects $0.6 million in lower digital game sales, driven by lower volumes of sales and less favorable pricing, and an out-of-period adjustment of $0.3 million correcting an immaterial overstatement of revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Q3 2022 net loss was $8.5 million, a $1.8 million increase compared to the Q3 2021 net loss of $6.7 million. The increase in net loss was driven by: (i) a $0.1 million increase in sales and marketing spend; (ii) a $0.8 million increase in foreign currency losses; (iii) a $0.6 million decrease in gross profit; (iv) a $0.1 million increase in interest expense; and (v) an increase of $1.0 million in loss contingency reserves, relating to a legal proceeding. The increases in Q3 2022 expenses described above were partially offset by: (i) a $0.4 million decrease in development expenses; (ii) a $0.2 million decrease in other expenses; and (iii) a $0.1 million decrease in general and administrative expenses.

Q3 2022 Adjusted EBITDA loss⁽¹⁾ was $6.5 million, a $1 million increase in loss when compared to Q3 2021 Adjusted EBITDA loss of $5.5 million. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA loss⁽¹⁾ was primarily driven by the same factors causing the increase in Q3 2022 net loss.

The following table provides a reconciliation from net loss to Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ for Q3 2022 and Q3 2021, respectively:

		Three Months Ended September 30, 2022				Three Months Ended September 30, 2021
Net Loss		$	(8,536,715	)		$	(6,658,629	)
Interest expense			244,953				160,310
Depreciation and Amortization			504,831				557,924
EBITDA			(7,786,931	)			(5,940,395	)
Acquisition-related expenses			93,286				193,099
Loss contingency expenses			1,000,000				-
Stock-based compensation			228,712				292,173
Adjusted EBITDA		$	(6,464,933	)		$	(5,455,123	)

Financial Results for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022

Revenues were $6.6 million and $6.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 (“Q3 YTD 2022”) and 2021 (“Q3 YTD 2021”), respectively, a decrease of $0.3 million, or 4%, as compared to the prior period. Gaming segment revenues decreased by $0.8 million, or 12%, to $5.9 million for Q3 YTD 2022, as compared to $6.7 million for Q3 YTD 2021, while our Esports segment revenues increased by $0.5 million for Q3 YTD 2022, as compared to Q3 YTD 2021. The decrease in our Gaming segment revenues was primarily due to lower retail revenues of $0.6 million, driven by higher retail pricing concessions, as well as a decrease in digital and mobile game sales of $0.8 million that was caused by lower volumes and pricing. These decreases were partially offset by $0.6 million in additional revenues earned through the development of simulation platforms for third parties. The increase in our Esports segment revenues was due to $0.5 million of higher sponsorship revenues from our Le Mans Virtual Series event, which concluded its 2021-22 season in January 2022 and commenced its 2022-23 season in September 2022, as well as the 24 Hours of Le Mans Live event held in June 2022.

Net loss for Q3 YTD 2022 was $32 million, an increase of $5.3 million, as compared to net loss of $26.7 million for Q3 YTD 2021. The increase in net loss was driven by: (i) a $9.4 million increase in goodwill and intangible asset impairment; (ii) a $1.6 million increase in development expenditures; (iii) a $1.6 million increase in sales and marketing spend; (iv) a $1.4 million decrease in gains from equity method investment; (v) a $1.7 million increase in foreign currency losses; (vi) a $1.1 million decrease in gross profit; (vii) a $0.3 million increase in interest expense; and (viii) a $1.0 million increase in loss contingency reserves, relating to a legal proceeding. These increases were offset by $12.8 million of lower general and administrative expenses.

For Q3 YTD 2022, Adjusted EBITDA loss⁽¹⁾ was $18 million, a $6 million increase, when compared to the $12.0 million Adjusted EBITDA loss for Q3 YTD 2021. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA loss⁽¹⁾ was primarily driven by the same factors as the increase in net loss for Q3 YTD 2022, when compared to Q3 YTD 2021.

The following table provides a reconciliation from net loss to Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ for Q3 YTD 2022 and Q3 YTD 2021:

		Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022				Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021
Net Loss		$	(31,991,431	)		$	(26,704,996	)
Interest expense			638,211				311,748

Adjusted EBITDA		$	(17,970,931	)		$	(11,990,631	)

Cash Flow and Liquidity

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company had negative cash flows from operations of approximately $16.9 million. The Company expects to continue to incur significant operating expenses and, as a result, the Company will need to grow revenues to reach profitability and positive cash flows. The Company expects to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future as it continues to develop its product portfolio and invest in developing new video game titles. As of October 31, 2022, the Company has cash and cash equivalents available of approximately $1.8 million. Based on the cash and cash equivalents available as of October 31, 2022, and the Company’s average cash burn, we do not believe we have sufficient cash on hand to fund our operations for the remainder of 2022 and that additional funding will be required in order to continue operations and we will need to supplement our available liquidity with additional debt and/or equity financing, cash generated by cost control initiatives, and/or additional changes to our product roadmap to reduce working capital requirements.

The Company’s future liquidity and capital requirements include funds to support the planned costs to operate its business, including amounts required to fund working capital, support the development and introduction of new products, maintain existing game titles and certain capital expenditures. The adequacy of the Company’s available funds generally depends on many factors, including its ability to successfully develop consumer-preferred new products or enhancements to its existing products, continued development and expansion of the Company’s esports platform and its ability to collaborate with and/or acquire other companies or technologies to enhance or complement the Company’s product and service offerings.

The Company is currently seeking additional funds through a variety of arrangements and through maintaining and enhancing strong cost controls. There can be no assurances that the sources of liquidity referred to above will provide the Company with sufficient liquidity to meet its ongoing cash requirements as, among other things, the Company’s liquidity can be impacted by a number of factors, including the Company’s level of sales and expenditures, as well as accounts receivable, sales allowances, prepaid manufacturing expenses and accrued expenses.

2022 Restructuring Program Update

To date, the Company has incurred restructuring costs of approximately $0.1 million in connection with its previously announced 2022 Restructuring Program, which primarily consist of severance payments, and expects total restructuring costs to fall within the previously estimated range of $0.1 million to $0.3 million. By implementing the 2022 Restructuring Program, the Company expects to eliminate approximately 20% of its overhead costs worldwide and deliver approximately $4 million of total annualized cost reductions by the end of 2023. As a result of the restructuring efforts, the Company has achieved annualized savings of approximately $2.5 million to date and is continuing its efforts to achieve further cost reductions. 

⁽¹⁾Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA (the “Non-GAAP Measure”) is not a financial measure defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). See the reconciliations of the Non-GAAP Measure to its most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure in the financial tables above.

Adjusted EBITDA, a measure used by management to assess the Company’s operating performance, is defined as EBITDA, which is net (loss) plus interest (income) expense, depreciation and amortization, less income tax benefit (if any), adjusted to exclude: (i) IPO-related expenses; (ii) acquisition related expenses; (iii) gain attributable to equity method investment resulting from the acquisition of additional equity interest in Le Mans Esports Series Ltd.; (iv) stock-based compensation expenses; (v) impairment of goodwill and intangible assets; (vi) loss contingency expenses relating to a legal proceeding; and (vii) other charges or gains resulting from non-recurring events, if any.

The Company uses the Non-GAAP Measure to manage its business and evaluate its financial performance, as Adjusted EBITDA eliminates items that affect comparability between periods that the Company believes are not representative of its core ongoing operating business. Additionally, management believes that using the Non-GAAP Measure is useful to its investors because it enhances investors’ understanding and assessment of the Company’s normalized operating performance and facilitates comparisons to prior periods and its competitors’ results (who may define Adjusted EBITDA differently).

The Non-GAAP Measure is not a recognized term under U.S. GAAP and does not purport to be an alternative to revenue, income/loss from operations, net (loss) income, or cash flows from operations or as a measure of liquidity or any other performance measure derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Additionally, the Non-GAAP Measure is not intended to be a measure of free cash flows available for management’s discretionary use, as it does not consider certain cash requirements, such as interest payments, tax payments, working capital requirements and debt service requirements. The Non-GAAP Measure has limitations as an analytical tool, and investors should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for the Company’s results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Management compensates for the limitations of using non-GAAP financial measures by using them to supplement U.S. GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than would be presented by using only measures in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the Company’s measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of the Non-GAAP Measure to net loss, its most directly comparable financial measure, calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, are presented in the tables above.

Factors other than those referred to above could also cause Motorsport Games’ results to differ materially from expected results. Additional examples of such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: (i) delays and higher than anticipated expenses related to the ongoing and prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, any resurgence of COVID-19 and the Russia invasion of Ukraine; (ii) Motorsport Games’ ability (or inability) to maintain existing, and to secure additional, licenses and other agreements with various racing series; (iii) Motorsport Games’ ability to successfully manage and integrate any joint ventures, acquisitions of businesses, solutions or technologies; (iv) unanticipated operating costs, transaction costs and actual or contingent liabilities; (v) the ability to attract and retain qualified employees and key personnel; (vi) adverse effects of increased competition; (vii) changes in consumer behavior, including as a result of general economic factors, such as increased inflation, higher energy prices and higher interest rates; (viii) Motorsport Games’ inability to protect its intellectual property; and/or (ix) local, industry and general business and economic conditions.
