ROXIO REPORTS FIRST QUARTER RESULTS
The Digital Media Company Confirms Launch Plans for Napster
SANTA CLARA, Calif.—July 31, 2003—Roxio, Inc. (Nasdaq: ROXI), The Digital Media Company®, provider of the best selling digital media software in the world, today reported financial results for its fiscal first quarter ended June 30, 2003. Net revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2004 was $24.2 million compared to $32.3 million in the first quarter of the prior fiscal year. Roxio’s reported net loss for the first quarter was $370,000, or $0.02 per basic and diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $1.2 million, or $0.06 per basic and diluted share, in the first quarter of the prior fiscal year. Shares used for computing basic and fully diluted earnings per share were approximately 21.9 million for the first fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2003 and 19.5 million shares for the first quarter of the prior fiscal year.
“First quarter sales results for our software division are in line with our estimates. Easy CD & DVD Creator 6.0 continues to outsell its nearest retail competitors by a substantial margin and maintain its leadership in CD and DVD recording,” said Chris Gorog, Roxio’s Chairman and CEO.
“The development of Napster 2.0 is on track, allowing us to launch the service in time for Christmas. We believe that the new, legal version of Napster will be the richest, most complete music experience available on the Internet and that it will offer consumers, for the first time, a choice between a la carte downloads and a monthly subscription program,” concluded Mr. Gorog.
For the quarter, Roxio’s digital media software division recorded revenues of $23.4 million and pretax income of $6.4 million. Pretax income includes a gain on the sale of the GoBack product line of approximately $10.6 million. Revenues for the company’s online music division totaled approximately $780,000 and pretax loss was $4.0 million. Combined pretax income for the two divisions was approximately $2.4 million before a tax provision of approximately $2.7 million.
Elliot Carpenter, Roxio’s chief financial officer, commented, “Our results of operations and balance sheet reflect significant transactions during the quarter including our recent equity financing, the purchase of Pressplay and gains from the sale of our GoBack product line to Symantec. We exited the quarter with approximately $63 million in cash and short-term investments, a more focused consumer software product line and an expanded growth opportunity through Napster. Near-term, our focus is on managing our software business for profitability and launching our online music business. The combination of our earlier launch date for Napster and softness in retail software sales led us to fiscal second quarter guidance of $21.4 million in revenue and a net loss per fully diluted share of $0.56, assuming approximately 27.4 million shares outstanding.”
