Skillz Announces Q2 2022 Results
–59% Improvement in Net Loss Quarter-Over-Quarter1
–Eliminated Unprofitable Revenue Programs to Improve Adjusted EBITDA2 by 48% Quarter-Over-Quarter
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Skillz Inc. (NYSE: SKLZ) (“Skillz” or the “Company”), the leading mobile games platform bringing fair competition to players worldwide, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.
“We are driving the company towards profitability and are making changes to our programs and personnel accordingly. We reduced our Net Loss by 59% quarter-over-quarter in Q2 2022,” said Skillz CEO Andrew Paradise. “We are building for the long term future and are repositioning Skillz to grow profitably in 2023 and beyond.”
Q2 Financial Update
•Revenue declined by 22% quarter-over-quarter from $93 million in Q1 2022 to $73 million
•Revenue After Engagement Marketing (RAEM)3 declined by 16% quarter-over-quarter from $51 million in Q1 2022 to $43 million
•Gross Profit declined by 24% quarter-over-quarter from $84 million in Q1 2022 to $64 million
•Net Loss improved by 59% quarter-over-quarter from $148 million in Q1 2022 to $61 million
•Adjusted EBITDA improved by 48% quarter-over-quarter from $(61) million in Q1 2022 to $(32) million
•Paying Monthly Active Users (PMAU) declined by 26% quarter-over-quarter from 0.57 million in Q1 2022 to 0.42 million
•Monthly Average Revenue Per Paying User (ARPPU) increased by 6% quarter-over-quarter from $55 in Q1 2022 to $58
•As of June 30, 2022, the Company had cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $590 million and $300 million of debt outstanding
Q2 Business Update
•Hired Jason Roswig, who previously served as a Managing Director in Blackstone’s Private Equity and Portfolio Operations groups, as President and Chief Financial Officer
•Hired Valerie Texin, who previously led Content FP&A at Netflix, as CFO for Skillz Competition business unit
•Added Shari Glazer, a globally-recognized philanthropist and entrepreneur to our Board of Directors; the Glazer family are owners of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Manchester United
•Improved Adjusted EBITDA as a result of lower user acquisition (UA) marketing spend, reduction of low return engagement marketing programs, and lower costs resulting from a restructuring
•Reduced engagement marketing by 28% quarter-over-quarter by eliminating certain low return programs, resulting in an increase in RAEM as a percentage of revenue quarter-over-quarter
•The reduction in PMAU was driven in large part by a reduction in end-user-discounts including engagement marketing that were not driving profitable revenue; we expect this decline in PMAU to continue through the end of the year followed by a recovery in 2023 as the Company increases profitability and revenue per monthly active user
•Executed a restructuring and reorganization to better align resources with strategic priorities, which resulted in the elimination of approximately 10% of the employee base
1 Quarter-over-quarter refers to changes on a sequential basis between Q1 2022 and Q2 2022.
2 Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP metric; for a reconciliation of this measure against its most comparable GAAP metric, please see the appendix to this press release.
3 Revenue After Engagement Marketing (RAEM) is a non-GAAP metric; for reconciliation of this measure against its most comparable GAAP metric, please see the appendix to this press release.
•Launched public beta testing of refreshed core user experience
•Launched public beta testing of cloud gaming technology as next step towards roll out
•NFL and Skillz Game Developer Challenge finalist games are now being test marketed
Financial Outlook
We are lowering our full-year 2022 revenue guidance to $275 million. Our revised guidance is based on engagement marketing as a percentage of revenue of approximately 42% and implies our RAEM will be $160 million for full-year 2022. Based on the revised revenue and RAEM guidance, we expect to achieve a full year 2022 Adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately -56%.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this press release, the Company includes Adjusted EBITDA, RAEM and Non-GAAP Operating Expenses, which are non-GAAP performance measures that the Company uses to supplement its results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. As required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Company has provided herein a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures contained in this press release to the most directly comparable measures under GAAP. The Company’s management believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful in evaluating its operating performance and is a similar measure reported by publicly-listed U.S. competitors, and regularly used by security analysts, institutional investors, and other interested parties in analyzing operating performance and prospects. The Company’s management believes that RAEM is a useful measure to enable investors to better measure the Company’s progress in optimizing engagement marketing and the core growth rate of our business. By providing these non-GAAP measures, the Company’s management intends to provide investors with a meaningful, consistent comparison of the Company’s profitability for the periods presented. Adjusted EBITDA and RAEM are not intended to be substitutes for any U.S. GAAP financial measures and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of performance of other companies in other industries or within the same industry. Further, Non-GAAP Operating Expenses are not intended to be a substitute for GAAP Operating Expenses or any U.S. GAAP financial measure and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of performance of other companies in other industries or within the same industry.
The Company defines and calculates Adjusted EBITDA as net loss before interest, other non-operating income or expense, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, and depreciation and amortization, and further adjusted for stock-based compensation and other special items determined by management, including, but not limited to, fair value adjustments for certain financial liabilities associated with debt and equity transactions, impairment charges, acquisition related expenses for transaction costs, certain loss contingency accruals and restructuring charges. The Company defines and calculates RAEM based on the Company’s consolidated revenue less engagement marketing expenses included in sales and marketing expenses. The Company defines and calculates Non-GAAP Operating Expenses as GAAP Operating Expenses adjusted for stock-based compensation, one-time transaction expenses and other special items determined by management, including, but not limited to acquisition-related expenses for transactions costs, certain loss contingency accruals and restructuring charges, as they are not indicative of business operations.
The Company does not provide a reconciliation for non-GAAP estimates on a forward-looking basis as it
is unable to provide a meaningful calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not
available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or
amount of various items that would impact the most directly comparable forward-looking U.S. GAAP
financial measure that have not yet occurred, are out of the Company’s control and/or cannot be
reasonably predicted. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures provided without the most directly
comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding U.S. GAAP
financial measures.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company’s actual results may differ from its expectations, estimates, and projections and, consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” and similar expressions (or the negative versions of such words or expressions) are intended to identify such forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Most of these factors are outside of the Company’s control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to, the ability of Skillz to: effectively compete in the global entertainment and gaming industries; attract and retain successful relationships with the third party developers that develop and update all of the games hosted on Skillz’s platform; comply with laws and regulations applicable to its business; and as well as other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in the Company’s SEC filings, including those under “Risk Factors” therein, which are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Additional information will be made available in other filings that the Company makes from time to time with the SEC. In addition, any forward-looking statements contained in this press release are based on assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable as of this date.
