(a) For the three-month periods ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021 and year-to-date period ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, period-over-period comparison of the key operating metrics above are impacted by the addition of 1-2-3.tv in the three-month period ended July 30, 2022 and year-to-date period ended July 31, 2021, particularly the ASP metric because 1-2-3.tv’s ASP is below $25.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

As of July 30, 2022, total unrestricted cash was $20.0 million.

Outlook:

For the third quarter 2022, we anticipate reporting net sales of approximately $138 million, which is approximately 6% growth over the same prior year period. We anticipate reporting adjusted EBITDA of approximately $8 million, which is approximately a 20% decrease over the same prior year period.

For the full-year 2022, we anticipate reporting revenue of approximately $615 million, adjusted EBITDA of approximately $41 million and positive quarterly earnings per share in Q4 2022.

A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome and timing of certain significant items, including mergers and acquisitions, other transactions, settlements, integration activities, customer concessions, restructuring activities, and certain tax related events. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors and could have a material impact on earnings and cash flow measures determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for the applicable future period.

Conference Call:

Q2 2022 Earnings Conference Call: Our Q2 earnings conference call and webcast is scheduled for Wednesday, August 24, at 8:30 a.m. Eastern time to discuss its financial results for the Second quarter ended July 30, 2022.

(a) Transaction, settlement, restructuring and integration costs for the three-month period ended July 30, 2022, includes transaction and integration costs related to Synacor and 1-2-3.tv transactions. For the three-month period ended July 31, 2021, includes transaction and integration costs related to the TheCloseOut.com and Christopher & Banks transactions.

Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA represents net income (loss) for the respective periods excluding depreciation and amortization expense, interest income (expense) and income taxes. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding non-operating gains (losses); executive and management transition costs; one-time customer concessions; restructuring costs; non-cash impairment charges and write downs; transaction, settlement, and integration costs, net; rebranding costs; and non-cash share-based compensation expense. The Company has included the “adjusted EBITDA” measure in its EBITDA reconciliation in order to adequately assess the operating performance of its segments and in order to maintain comparability to its analyst's coverage and financial guidance, when given. Management believes that the adjusted EBITDA measure allows investors to make a meaningful comparison between its business operating results over different periods of time with those of other similar companies. In addition, management uses adjusted EBITDA as a metric to evaluate operating performance under the Company’s management and executive incentive compensation programs. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are both non-GAAP measures and should not be construed as an alternative to operating income (loss), net 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. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The Company has included a reconciliation of the comparable GAAP measure, net income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA in this release.
