Second Quarter Results
Second quarter revenues were $142 million, a 26% decrease from the same period last year. EBITDA, as adjusted, was ($10.7) million compared with $1.8 million in the year-ago period. Net Loss for the second quarter was ($15.7) million compared with a net loss of ($5.4) million for the same quarter last year.
"Revenues in the second quarter were very disappointing," said John Buck, ShopNBC's CEO. "The Board fully recognizes these performance issues, and we are taking decisive action to address these trends."
Leadership Changes
As announced in a separate press release the Company issued earlier today, ShopNBC's Board of Directors concluded it was necessary to make organizational leadership changes that are effective immediately. The Board appointed John D. Buck to serve as Chief Executive Officer replacing Rene Aiu, who joined the Company as President and CEO in March 2008 and is leaving ShopNBC and its Board. Mr. Buck is currently Executive Chairman and was previously ShopNBC's Interim CEO from November 2007 to March 2008. The Company also announced the departures of Glenn Leidahl, COO, Terry Curtis, SVP of Customer Analytics and Sales Planning, and John Gunder, SVP of Media & On-air Sales, who were named to their positions in April 2008.
The Board also appointed Keith R. Stewart, with 20 years of executive retail experience, as President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company. Buck commented, "Keith has excellent leadership skills, a deep understanding of retail operations domestically and internationally and, importantly, nearly 15 years of experience in home shopping as an executive at QVC. He possesses a strong understanding of multi-channel retailing and has a proven history of delivering growth and profitability spanning markets in the United States and Germany."
Second Quarter Highlights
The Company noted that in the second quarter:
-- ShopNBC.com launched several live Webcasts to aggressively reach new customers and drive incremental sales by capitalizing on its strong niche categories, such as watches and coins. -- It appointed Kris Kulesza, a retail executive with 23 years of experience and nearly a decade in home shopping, as Senior Vice President and Chief Merchant; and Jeff Lewis, a customer service executive with 25 years of leadership experience in retail and direct marketing, as Vice President of Customer Experience. -- It continued disciplined control of operating expenses, which were down year-over-year by 11% in the quarter, driven by headcount and other fixed overhead reductions. -- It maintained a strong balance sheet with over $80 million in cash and securities. -- It recently signed an extended carriage agreement with one of the top five cable providers and continues to work on preserving its cable distribution base while lowering distribution costs.
Business Outlook
"ShopNBC has undergone significant changes this past year," said Buck. "We greatly appreciate the support and patience of our shareholders. Despite these challenging times, ShopNBC made progress in the second quarter in its cable negotiations, diversifying its merchandise mix with newness, and continued success of our e-commerce business. ShopNBC is a great company with strong underlying assets supported by a talented and dedicated employee base and excellent growth potential.
"We are encouraged by these signs of progress. I look forward to working with Keith and the rest of our talented management team to improve performance that will enable us to deliver long-term shareholder value. Given the changes being implemented at the Company, we have decided not to provide guidance at this time."

EBITDA and EBITDA, as adjusted
The Company defines EBITDA as net income (loss) from continuing operations for the respective periods excluding depreciation and amortization expense, interest income (expense) and income taxes. The Company defines EBITDA, as adjusted, as EBITDA excluding non-recurring non-operating gains (losses) and equity in income of Ralph Lauren Media, LLC; non-recurring restructuring and CEO transition costs; and non-cash share-based payment expense. Management has included the term EBITDA, as adjusted, in order to adequately assess the operating performance of the Company's "core" television and Internet businesses and in order to maintain comparability to its analyst's coverage and financial guidance. Management believes that EBITDA, as adjusted, allows investors to make a more meaningful comparison between our core business operating results over different periods of time with those of other similar small cap, higher growth companies. In addition, management uses EBITDA, as adjusted, as a metric measure to evaluate operating performance under its management and executive incentive compensation programs. EBITDA, as adjusted, should not be construed as an alternative to operating income (loss) or to cash flows from operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be construed as a measure of liquidity. EBITDA, as adjusted, may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other companies.
