theScore Reports F2017 Q3 Results

TORONTO, July 26 2017 /PRNewswire/ - theScore, Inc. (TSX Venture: SCR) ("theScore") today announced the financial results for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2017 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").

theScore today announced its F2017 Q3 results. (CNW Group/theScore, Inc.)

Revenue for the quarter grew to $6.4 million compared to $6.1 million in the same period the previous year. Revenue for the first nine months of F2017 grew to $21.6 million versus $18.9 million for the same period in F2016. Revenue growth was powered by theScore's Canadian and US direct sales teams, as well as growth in engagement within theScore's mobile apps. 

Adjusted EBITDA loss for the three months ended May 31, 2017 was $1.5 million versus $3.0 million in the same period the previous year. A combination of an increase in revenue plus savings in expenses led to direct improvements in the Company's profitability. Net and comprehensive loss for the three months ended May 31, 2017 was $2.9 million compared to $4.4 million in the same period the previous year.

Average monthly sessions of theScore's mobile apps reached 379 million compared to 358 million for the same period the previous year, with users opening our apps an average of 92 times a month each. Average monthly active users of theScore's mobile apps were 4.1 million versus 4.3 million in Q3 F2016.

"Our team is very much focused on the imminent roll-out of some significant new features for our flagship app as the start of football season draws closer," said John Levy, Founder and CEO of theScore.

"We've already begun testing some of these with a small percentage of users and the early signs suggest we've got something that will further strengthen our position as the number one challenger app to ESPN in North America.

"The evolution of theScore app will be an ongoing process to ensure we're meeting the demands of sports fans on mobile devices. We're also seeing positive progress in growing the engagement and size of our off-platform audience, including theScore Bot for Facebook Messenger and with our esports video strategy.

"Our continued growth in revenue, underpinned by our diligent focus on managing our expenses, means we remain well on track to be adjusted EBITDA positive in F2018."

theScore will be hosting a conference call at 8:30am EST on Wednesday, July 26. Management will review the Company's Q3 F2017 results, followed by a question and answer session.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing results in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), theScore also provides supplementary non-IFRS financial measures as a method of evaluating the Company's performance. theScore utilizes earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") to measure operating performance.  theScore's definition of EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization, finance income, income taxes, and acquisition costs which in theScore's view do not adequately reflect its core operating results. EBITDA is used in the determination of short-term incentive compensation for all senior management personnel.  EBITDA is not a measure of performance under IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net and comprehensive income or loss prepared in accordance with IFRS or as a measure of operating performance or profitability. EBITDA does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and is not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

Statements made in this news release that relate to future plans, events or performances are forward-looking statements.  Any statement containing words such as "may", "would", "could", "will",  "believes", "plans", "anticipates", "estimates", "expects" or "intends" and other similar statements which are not historical facts contained in this release are forward-looking, and these statements involve risks and uncertainties and are based on current expectations. Such statements reflect theScore's current views with respect to future events and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Many factors could cause the Company's actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements that may be expressed or implied by such forward looking statements, including among other things, those which are discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Information Form as filed with the TSX Venture Exchange and available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and elsewhere in documents that theScore files from time to time with securities regulatory authorities.
