Exhibit 99.1
GAIAM REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2005 RESULTS
• Revenue Increases 28% Year-Over-Year to $21.7 Million
• Cash Flow from Operations grows 33% to $2.2 million
Broomfield, CO, August 2, 2005 — Gaiam, Inc. (NASDAQ: GAIA), a lifestyle media company catering to people who value personal development, natural health and inspirational entertainment, today announced results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005.
Second quarter revenue was $21.7 million, a 28% increase from $17.0 million recorded in the second quarter of 2004, primarily due to strong sales in the Company’s retail business segment. Gaiam’s retail business segment, which distributes media and other proprietary products to retailers, generated revenue of $9.7 million in the second quarter of 2005, a 45% increase from $6.7 million in the comparable 2004 period. Revenue for the company’s direct to consumer segment was $12 million, or 16% higher in the second quarter of 2005 than in the comparable period in 2004. The improvement of the overall revenue growth rate to 28%, from 11% in the preceding quarter, represents Gaiam’s fourth consecutive quarter of accelerating internal growth.
During the second quarter of 2005, Gaiam generated cash from operating activities of $2.2 million, and increased its cash position at June 30, 2005 to $12.3 million, up from $10.9 million at March 31, 2005. Net loss for the second quarter was $766 thousand, or $0.05 per share, compared to a loss of $2.2 million, or $0.15 per share, reported in the same period last year. Depreciation and amortization for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 were $850 thousand.
For the six months ended June 30, 2005, Gaiam achieved net revenue of $48.0 million, an 18% increase from $40.8 million recorded in the same period last year. The net loss for the first six months of 2005 was $650 thousand, or $0.04 per share, as compared to $2.5 million, or $0.17 per share, for the first six months of 2004. Gaiam has no debt and an unused $15 million line of credit. After the end of the quarter, Gaiam added another $18 million to its cash position as a result of our private placement of stock to funds advised by Prentice Capital Management.
“Our strong second quarter performance reflects the traction of our media business model and the growing demand for products that support healthy living, wellness and fitness,” said Lynn Powers, President. “Despite a seasonally slow quarter, we were able to combine revenue improvements with cost savings to reduce our second quarter net loss by two-thirds. We continue to gain media shelf space with our mass merchants and video retailers, and expect to secure additional shelf space following the anticipated closing of the GoodTimes Entertainment acquisition in the third quarter.”
Jirka Rysavy, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are encouraged by our results for in the first half of 2005, which are largely due to of our efforts over the past two years to
improve operating efficiency and scalability. Our focus on DVD distribution and programming is producing the results we had intended and we believe that we are well-positioned to continue to grow our market share.”
