Provides Initial Outlook for Full Year 2019To Present at ICR Conference on January 15th
Hamid Hashemi, Founder & Chief Executive Officer of iPic® Entertainment, commented, “Our fourth quarter was truly an exceptional period of top-line growth at iPic and we are pleased that our preliminary 2018 revenue and comparable-store sales results exceeded our own projections despite a weaker slate of movie titles compared to the prior year. Our outperformance was partially due to the conversion of five Generation I theaters to Generation III auditoriums which lifted sales and we were also successful in delivering 20% growth in membership and sponsorship revenues.”
Hashemi added, “Looking ahead, 2019 is poised to be an exciting year at iPic as we continue to execute our four key strategic initiatives: 1) Improving Profitability at Existing Locations; 2) Opening New iPic Locations Domestically; 3) Pursuing International Growth Opportunities; and 4) Increasing Alternative Revenue Streams. We are hopeful that our success in realizing these objectives will meaningfully improve our top and bottom-line results as reflected in our initial 2019 guidance, and in doing so, create long-term value for stockholders.”

Key Financial Definitions
New store openings – Our ability to expand our business and reach new guests is influenced by the opening of additional iPic locations in both new and existing markets. The success of our new iPic locations is indicative of our brand appeal and the efficacy of our site selection and operating models.
Comparable-store sales – Comparable-store sales are a year-over-year comparison of sales at iPic locations open at the end of the period which have been open for at least 12 months prior to the start of such quarterly period. It is a key performance indicator used within the industry and is indicative of acceptance of our initiatives as well as local economic and consumer trends. Our comparable iPics consisted of 14 and 15 iPics as of the end of the fourth quarter of 2017 and 2018, respectively. From period to period, comparable-store sales are generally impacted by attendance and average spend per person. Spend per person is, in turn, composed of pricing and sales-mix changes.
Store-level EBITDA – A non-GAAP measure, store-level EBITDA consists of total revenues less store-level expenses that include food-and beverage cost-of-goods sold, box-office-and-other-income costs-of-goods-sold, labor costs, occupancy expenses and other-operating expenses.
EBITDA – A non-GAAP measure, is defined as net income before net interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
Adjusted EBITDA – A non-GAAP measure, is defined as net income before net interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and which also excludes equity-based compensation expense, losses on the disposal of property and equipment, as well as certain non-recurring items that the Company does not believe directly reflect its core operations.
