Newegg Announces First Half 2024 Results

Newegg Commerce, Inc. (NASDAQ:NEGG) (the “Company” or “Newegg”), a leading global technology e-commerce retailer, today announced results for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Newegg Chief Executive Officer Anthony Chow stated, “As expected, the first half of the year saw a slowdown in computer hardware sales due to ongoing macroeconomic challenges and a shortage of new product launches. However, we anticipate a rebound in sales during the second half as consumers begin to upgrade their pandemic-era devices. We believe the increasing availability, affordability, and capabilities of AI-powered PCs will strengthen our long-term outlook for core computer sales. We are particularly enthusiastic about the upcoming release of next-generation CPUs from AMD and Intel, which we expect to drive component sales and fuel demand for refreshed desktop systems among both consumers and system integrators.”

Newegg Chief Accounting Officer Christina Ching added, “In the first half of 2024, our industry faced continued macroeconomic challenges from high interest rates, inflation, and consumer spending shifts, thus resulting in a 15% year-over-year decline in sales. We are actively working to adjust our company’s size and structure to better align with our revenue outlook. As a result, our adjusted EBITDA improved by 29% in the first half of 2024 compared to the same period last year. We remain keenly focused on our inventory and cash balance, which, as of June 30, 2024, we maintained at $132.0 million and $49.7 million, respectively. In addition, on August 27, 2024, we successfully renewed our credit agreement for an additional two-year period. The credit agreement provides for borrowing capacity of up to $40 million from April 1 to September 30 and $50 million from October 1 to March 31 for each year during the renewal term. Looking ahead, our priority is redefining our company’s direction by concentrating on our core competencies in IT products and enhancing our customer experience to regain market share.”

2024 First Half Financial Highlights

  • Net sales decreased 14.5% to $618.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $723.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
  • GMV (defined below) decreased 15.4% to $746.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $882.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
  • Gross profit decreased 22.4% to $63.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $81.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
  • Net loss was $25.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $29.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
  • Adjusted EBITDA (defined below) improved to $(7.3) million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $(10.3) million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

2024 First Half Operational Metrics

  • Average order value was $401 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $390 for same period in prior year.
  • Active customers, defined as unique customer IDs with at least one item purchased on Newegg platforms in the past 6 months, totaled approximately 1.1 million as of June 30, 2024, a decrease from 1.3 million for the same period in the prior year.
  • Repeat purchase rate, which is the percentage of active customers who made at least two purchases on Newegg platforms during the past 6 months, was 23.0% as of June 30, 2024, compared to 27.9% for the same period in the prior year.

Mr. Chow added, “Our strategic focus for the remainder of the year is threefold. We aim to aggressively capitalize on the surging demand for servers by expanding our product offerings, tailoring comprehensive service packages, forging strategic partnerships, and diversifying our Rosewill portfolio to include server chassis. Our goal is to become the go-to destination for server solutions, from hardware to expert services. Secondly, we plan to accelerate brand growth by expanding our mainstream PC offerings, particularly targeting college students through strategic partnerships with AMD and Intel. Lastly, we will work to strengthen our vendor relationships, as exemplified by our ASUS NUC configurator and build-to-order service, to deliver even greater value and customization options to our customers.”

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release presents certain “non-GAAP” financial measures. The components of these non-GAAP measures are computed by using amounts that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release to their nearest comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the schedules attached hereto.

GMV

The Company defines gross merchandise value, or GMV, as the total dollar value of products sold on its websites and third-party marketplace platforms, directly to customers and by its Marketplace sellers through Newegg Marketplace, net of returns, discounts, taxes, and cancellations. GMV also includes the services fees charged through its Newegg Partner Services (“NPS”) in rendering services for its third-party logistics (“3PL”), shipped-by-Newegg (“SBN”), staffing and media ad services, as well as the sales made by its Asia subsidiaries.

Adjusted EBITDA

Newegg calculates Adjusted EBITDA as net income/loss, excluding stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expense, interest income, net, income tax (benefit) provision, gain/loss from warrants liabilities, gain/loss from sales of investment, impairment of equity investment, and loss (income) from equity investment.

Newegg believes that exclusion of certain expenses in calculating Adjusted EBITDA facilitates operating performance comparisons on a period-to-period basis and excludes items that it does not consider to be indicative of its core operating performance. Accordingly, Newegg believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results in the same manner as its management and board of directors.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of Newegg’s results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are: although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements; Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; Adjusted EBITDA does not consider the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation; Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to Newegg; and other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, operating profit and Newegg’s other GAAP results.
