Playmaker Capital Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2022 Results Highlighted By Record Revenue and User Engagement and Continued Profitability

  • Q2 2022 pro forma revenue was US $7.4 million, 14% above analyst consensus and an organic increase of 10% over Q2 2021
  • Trailing twelve-month pro forma revenue was US $30.6 million, an organic increase of 34% over the previous twelve months
  • Q2 2022 pro forma Adjusted EBITDA was US $1.9 million, 12% above analyst consensus and a decrease of 14% over Q2 2021
  • Trailing twelve-month pro forma Adjusted EBITDA was US $9.4 million, an organic increase of 21% over the previous twelve months
  • User Sessions on Playmaker web properties reached 674 million in Q2 2022, an increase of 40% over Q2 2021

Playmaker Capital Inc. (TSX-V: PMKR) (“the Company” or “Playmaker”), the digital sports media company that delivers authentic content experiences through its portfolio of sports media and technology brands, is pleased to report its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022 (“Q2 2022”).

“Q2 was a very productive quarter for us as we continued to invest in the foundation of our business, integrating recently acquired companies, and developing operational efficiencies and centres of excellence,” said Jordan Gnat, Playmaker CEO. “We completed two acquisitions subsequent to the quarter end with the key efforts on diligence and operational integration happening prior to closing the transactions. We launched new products with BarkBets and The 90th Minute and our new affiliate partnership with oddschecker. On the balance sheet side, we completed a financing with Beedie Capital, bringing additional institutional capital into the company. This investment provides us with the flexibility to execute on our strategies and a partner in Beedie Capital that brings unique expertise and perspective to complement our business. I have stated on many occasions that we will not profit at the expense of growth and not grow at the expense of profit. This is the disciplined approach we started with and, as demonstrated, we continue to focus on this balance.”

“Though we continue to invest in growth initiatives throughout the business, we produced $1.9 million of pro forma Adjusted EBITDA in Q2, demonstrating our balanced focus on profitability and growth,” said Mike Cooke, Playmaker CFO. “Meanwhile, at a time when capital is at a premium, we continue to strengthen our balance sheet, closing a US $20.0 million convertible loan facility in July 2022. This facility, combined with the US $15.0 million credit facility that we closed in March 2022, gives us significant flexibility to opportunistically pursue our M&A strategy – and to continue making investments to drive growth, both organically and through strategic acquisitions over time.”

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS (Figures in USD)

  • Revenue – Revenue was $7.0 million in Q2 2022, compared to $3.0 million in Q2 2021.
  • Operating Income – Operating loss was $0.7 million in Q2 2022, compared to operating income of $0.4 million in Q2 2021.
  • Pro Forma Revenue (including all acquisitions to date) – Revenue was $7.4 million in Q2 2022, an increase of 10% from $6.7 million in Q2 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, revenue was $14.3 million, an increase of 17% from $12.2 million in the same period of 2021.
  • Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA (including all acquisitions to date) – Adjusted EBITDA was $1.9 million in Q2 2022, a decrease of 14% from $2.2 million in Q2 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, Adjusted EBITDA was $3.6 million, a decrease of 4% from $3.7 million in the same period of 2021.
