Quarterly Results in Line with Preliminary Announcement for Revenue, Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA
Synacor, Inc. (Nasdaq: SYNC), a leading provider of cloud-based Collaboration and Identity Management software and services serving global enterprises, video, internet and communications providers, and governments, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2020.
Fourth Quarter Financial Highlights
“Synacor delivered a strong end to 2020, with solid Q4 results for revenue, net income and adjusted EBITDA,” said Himesh Bhise, Synacor’s Chief Executive Officer.
Recent Operating Highlights
Fourth Quarter and Full Year Financial Results:
Revenue
For the fourth quarter of 2020, revenue was $24.1 million, compared to $26.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. The decline was primarily driven by the COVID-19 impact on our business.
Revenue in the Software & Services segment totaled $12.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared with $11.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. Revenue in the Portal & Advertising segment totaled $11.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared with $15.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2019.
For fiscal year 2020, total revenue was $81.4 million, compared to $121.8 million in fiscal year 2019. Software & Services revenue was $44.3 million, relatively unchanged from $44.5 million in the prior year. Portal & Advertising revenue was $37.1 million, compared to $77.4 million in fiscal 2019. The decline was primarily due to the loss of the AT&T portal contract in Q3’19 and the COVID-19 impact on our business.
Net Income / (Loss)
Net income for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $0.1 million, or $0.00 per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $0.6 million, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share, in the prior year quarter.
For fiscal year 2020, net loss was $11.6 million, or $0.29 per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $9.0 million, or $0.23 per basic and diluted share, in fiscal year 2019.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $3.6 million, or 14.8% of revenue, compared with $3.4 million, or 12.8% of revenue, in the fourth quarter of 2019. Adjusted EBITDA excludes stock-based compensation expense, other income and expense, asset impairments, restructuring costs, and certain legal and professional services fees.
For fiscal year 2020, adjusted EBITDA was $5.3 million, or 6.5% of revenue, compared with $9.5 million, or 7.8% of revenue, in fiscal year 2019.
Cash
Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the fourth quarter of 2020 was $5.7 million, compared with $4.3 million at the end of the third quarter of 2020 and $11.0 million at December 31, 2019. The Company continues to have no borrowings on its $12 million credit facility.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures in this release. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
We report adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management and Board of Directors to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget and to develop short and long-term operational plans. In particular, the exclusion of certain expenses in calculating adjusted EBITDA can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our core business. Accordingly, we believe that adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and Board of Directors.
For a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, please refer to the table “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures” in this press release.
We report adjusted net loss and adjusted diluted earnings per share because we believe these measures provide investors with additional information to assess our financial performance. These measures should be viewed as supplemental data, rather than substitutes or alternatives to the comparable GAAP measures. For a reconciliation of our GAAP Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations to our adjusted non-GAAP measures, please refer to the table “Reconciliation of Adjusted Financial Measures” in this press release.
