LOS ANGELES, March 30, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- SRAX, Inc. (Nasdaq: SRAX), an Internet advertising and technology platform company that provides tools to automate the digital advertising market, reported its fourth quarter and full year 2016 results.
"Our initiatives to diversify our customer base delivered 42% revenue growth for the fourth quarter of 2016 compared to that of 2015," stated SRAX's CEO and Chairman Christopher Miglino. "And our efforts to eliminate low margin relationships are successfully improving gross margin, which increased from 27% in the third quarter to 41% in the fourth quarter. SRAXmd, which posted record annual revenue, exemplifies the benefits of our strategy to build out specialized verticals. Additionally, SRAX Reach, our recently launched ad technology toolset that enables publishers to enhance their revenue opportunities, is gaining significant traction on the sell side."
"Overall, our unique platform enables content owners, publishers and brands to amplify performance and maximize profits. In 2017, we are focusing our resources on our most profitable revenue streams as well as creating more operational efficiencies. We are committed to driving long-term shareholder value and have reaffirmed our 2017 guidance of revenue to range between $45 million and $50 million and dramatically improving our profitability on an Adjusted EBITDA basis."
Fourth Quarter 2016 Financial Results:
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and impairment of goodwill. It is not intended to represent a measure of performance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Although EBITDA is positive for the fourth quarter of 2016, EBITDA may not be positive in future quarters. A detailed description and reconciliation of EBITDA and management's reasons for using this measure is set forth at the end of this press release.
2016 Financial Results:
Revenue grew 18% to $35.8 million, up from $30.3 million in 2015. Revenue was lower than prior guidance of $40 million primarily due to non-returning buy side business over the holiday season and timing of other advertising placements that shifted out of the fourth quarter of 2016 and into the first quarter of 2017. Gross margin was 35%, compared to 52% in 2015. Operating expense was $17.3 million or 48% of revenue, compared to $14.8 million or 49% of revenue. GAAP net loss was $4.2 million, compared to a GAAP net loss of $2.7 million in 2015. Adjusted EBITDA loss was $1.1 million, compared to an Adjusted EBITDA gain of $2.9 million in 2015.
