Current report

Revenue decreased by $7.3 million, or 6%, for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decline of $14.6 million in Consumer Electronics revenue as a result of a decline in minimum guarantee (“MG”) revenue driven by the timing and duration of MG contracts that were renewed as well as the Divestiture, and a decrease of $3.4 million in Media Platform revenue driven principally by a decline in advertising revenue from a unique initial ad buy that occurred in 2023. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of $8.0 million in Connected Car revenue due to an increase in MG revenue in audio solutions, which was partially offset by the Divestiture, and an increase of $2.7 million in Pay-TV revenue, driven largely by continued increase in IPTV Solutions revenue and by higher core guide product revenue due to the timing and duration of MG contracts that were renewed, offset by declines in consumer hardware and subscription revenue in the second quarter of 2024.

Current report

Cost of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization of intangible assets, for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $29.0 million, as compared to $30.9 million in the same period of the prior year, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 6%. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower costs incurred in connection with advertising revenue in the second quarter of 2024.

Current report

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were $109.5 million, as compared to $114.3 million in the same period of the prior year, a decrease of $4.8 million, or 4%. The decrease was primarily attributable to reduced employee headcount as well as decreases in stock-based compensation and bonus expenses, partially offset by an increase in certain one-time transaction costs in the first six months of 2024.

Current report

Depreciation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $6.9 million, as compared to $8.3 million in the same period of the prior year, a decrease of $1.4 million, or 17%. The decrease was primarily due to certain fixed assets becoming fully depreciated over the past 12 months.

Current report

Amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $22.1 million, as compared to $29.6 million in the same period of the prior year, a decrease of $7.5 million, or 25%. The decrease was primarily due to certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized over the past 12 months.

Current report

The current ratio is a liquidity ratio that measures our ability to pay short-term obligations or those due within one year. The ratio is calculated by dividing current assets by current liabilities.

Current report

Net cash provided by financing activities was $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to $5.9 million in proceeds from the issuance of common stock under our ESPP, partially offset by the payment of $3.2 million in withholding taxes related to net share settlement of equity awards.

Previous wording

The $8.0 million, or 6%, decrease in revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to the same period in the prior year, was primarily attributable to a decline of $10.6 million in Consumer Electronics revenue due to the Divestiture as well as a decline in minimum guarantee revenue contracts, and a decrease of $3.5 million in Pay-TV revenue, driven largely by declines in core guide products, consumer hardware, and subscription revenue which were partially offset by increases in IPTV Solutions. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of $3.8 million in Connected Car revenue as the result of growth coupled with settlements executed in HD Radio, and an increase of $2.3 million in Media Platform revenue driven principally by growth in our smart TV application software and middleware platform in the first quarter of 2024.

Current wording

Revenue decreased by $15.3 million, or 6%, for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in the prior year.

Research and development expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $50.4 million, as compared to $54.9 million in the same period of the prior year, a decrease of $4.5 million, or 8%.

Current wording

Research and development expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $45.1 million, as compared to $55.7 million in the same period of the prior year, a decrease of $10.6 million, or 19%.

Previous wording

In April 2024, our Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized the repurchase of up to $100.0 million of our common stock (the “Program”). Under the Program, we may make repurchases, from time to time, through open market purchases, block trades, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase transactions, or other means. We may also, from time to time, enter into Rule 10b5-1 plans to facilitate repurchases under the Program. Since the inception of the Program, we have not repurchased any shares of our common stock. The volume, timing, and manner of any repurchases will be determined at our discretion, subject to general market conditions, as well as our management of capital, general business conditions, other investment opportunities, regulatory requirements, and other factors.

Any repurchases under the Program may not enhance the value of our common stock.
