Financial Outlook

Despite facing industry-wide headwinds, the Company is forecasting a return to top-line growth in fiscal 2025, with a target for 20% revenue growth and over 10% AEBITDA¹ growth. The variance between revenue and AEBITDA¹ growth reflects the anticipated gross margin¹ difference associated with the types of projects being forecasted in FY 2025 compared to FY 2024. These targets are supported by a strong content pipeline, strategic investments, and signs of a stabilizing market environment.

In fiscal 2024, Thunderbird introduced comprehensive cost-saving measures that delivered savings exceeding $3 million and resulted in an ongoing reduction to the Company’s fixed cost base. The Company continues to maintain a disciplined approach to managing costs and will seek out additional ways to increase efficiencies and realize savings throughout fiscal 2025 without sacrificing the quality that the Company is known for.

Thunderbird’s balance sheet remains robust, with no corporate debt, providing the financial flexibility needed to pursue growth opportunities. This strength supports the Company’s plans to invest in new content production, a key driver of future growth. By aligning its content strategy with disciplined financial oversight, Thunderbird is committed to delivering increased value to shareholders.

The Company’s fiscal 2025 outlook is based on the Company’s latest internal projections, though certain risks remain, as detailed in the “Risk and Uncertainty” section of the Company’s June 30, 2024, MD&A. With a clear focus on executing its strategic priorities, Thunderbird is well positioned to succeed in a competitive and evolving market landscape.

“Our strong Q4 results and overall fiscal 2024 performance demonstrate how Thunderbird is a healthy, successful business even in today’s challenging market,” said Jennifer Twiner McCarron, CEO and Chair of Thunderbird. “Looking ahead, as the entertainment industry continues to recover from setbacks experienced in 2023, Thunderbird will be exceptionally well-positioned to build significant value for our shareholders. Supported by our robust content pipeline, strong industry relationships and disciplined cost management, we are optimistic about the future as Thunderbird is ready to seize the opportunities ahead.”

Strategic Review Process Update

A special committee (the “Special Committee”) of the board of directors of Thunderbird (the “Board”) comprised of three directors of Thunderbird (including two independent directors and a Voss Capital-nominee) was created to assess Thunderbird’s capital allocation strategy and strategic alternatives and opportunities to maximize shareholder value. After conducting a thorough review process, and obtaining financial and legal advice, the Special Committee recommended to the Board that the formal strategic review process be concluded, and the Company focus on the execution of its strategic business plan. The Board, following the recommendation of the Special Committee determined that it was in the best interests of the Company’s stakeholders to terminate the formal strategic review process and have the Company’s management focus on executing the Company’s current business plan, which includes the pursuit of strategic growth opportunities.

“After a thorough strategic review process led by the Special Committee, the Board determined that remaining a standalone public company and executing on our strategic business plan is in the best interests of our stakeholders. We anticipate that executing on our targeted growth in the coming years, along with exploring strategic capital markets and other opportunities, such as a potential opportunity to uplist to the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) to increase visibility and liquidity, will prove to be a path to enhancing value for our shareholders,” said Ms. Twiner McCarron.

Taylor Henderson, Company Director and Investment Analyst at Voss Capital added, “The Board of Directors is aligned in the decision to maintain Thunderbird as an independent, publicly traded company after considering all available strategic options. We believe remaining a standalone public company will lead to the best opportunity for significant mid- to long-term value creation. We believe that Thunderbird is significantly undervalued and the work to close this valuation gap will continue through a combination of ongoing operational execution and strategic actions to increase visibility and liquidity for the stock, such as the potential uplisting to the TSX. Thunderbird has navigated challenging industry dynamics better than most. We believe the troughs for earnings and margins are behind us and we have a line of sight to accelerate revenue growth and margin expansion. The management team and Board are confident in Thunderbird’s ability to execute on its targets.”

Normal Course Issuer Bid

Thunderbird implemented a normal course issuer bid (the “NCIB”) which is detailed in the Company’s December 1, 2023 news release, pursuant to which it may repurchase its own common shares for cancellation through the facilities of the TSXV in an amount not to exceed 10% of its public float, as may be permitted by the TSXV and applicable securities laws.

To June 30, 2024, the Company has repurchased for cancellation 591,400 common shares, representing 17.3% of its allotted share repurchase under its NCIB in effect for a total consideration of $1.2 million, representing an average price of $2.08 per common share. Purchases under the NCIB may continue for up to one year from the commencement day of December 7, 2023.

The targets, forecasts and projections included herein, and the related assumptions, involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially. While management of Thunderbird believes there is a reasonable basis for these targets, forecasts and projections, such targets, forecasts, or projections may not be achieved. The Company’s actual financial position and results of operations may differ materially from management’s current expectations and, as a result, among other things, the Company’s future revenue and AEBITDA¹ may differ materially from the financial outlooks and future-oriented information provided in this news release. Accordingly, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the foregoing information.

¹ AEBITDA and gross margin are Non-IFRS Measures, see “Non-IFRS Measures” section below for their definitions, detailed calculations, and detailed reconciliations to IFRS measures. The most directly comparable financial measure of the Company are net income and gross profit, respectively, as reported below.

NON-IFRS MEASURES

In addition to the results reported in accordance with IFRS, the Company uses various non-IFRS financial measures which are not recognized under IFRS, and therefore do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS, as supplemental indicators of our operating performance and financial position. The Company’s method of calculating such financial measures may differ from the methods used by other issuers and, accordingly, our definition of these non-IFRS financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. These non-IFRS financial measures are provided to enhance the user’s understanding of our historical and current financial performance and our prospects for the future. Management believes that these measures provide useful information in that they exclude amounts that are not indicative of our core operating results and ongoing operations and provide a more consistent basis for comparison between periods. The following discussion explains the Company’s use of AEBITDA, Free Cash Flow, AEBITDA Margins and Gross Margin.

“AEBITDA” is calculated based on EBITDA before share-based compensation, unrealized foreign exchange gain/loss and items of an unusual or one-time nature that do not reflect our ongoing operations. AEBITDA is commonly reported and widely used by investors and lenders as an indicator of a company’s operating performance and ability to incur and service debt, and as a valuation metric. The most directly comparable measure under IFRS is net income.

“Free Cash Flow” is calculated based on cash flows from operations, purchase of property and equipment and net interim production financing. Free Cash Flow represents the cash a company generates after accounting for cash outflows to support operations and maintain its capital assets. The most directly comparable measure under IFRS is cash flows from operations.

“AEBITDA Margins” is calculated as a ratio of AEBITDA over total revenues. Margin is a non-IFRS ratio when applied to non-IFRS financial measures.

"Gross Margin" is calculated as a ratio of revenue that exceeds direct operating costs. Management considers Gross Margin a useful indicator of profitability before operating and other expenses, aiding in the assessment of the Company's ability to generate net earnings and cash flow. The most directly comparable measure under IFRS is gross profit.
