MusclePharm Reports 2015 First Quarter Financial Results / Net Revenue of $41.3 Million Record Sales Backlog of $17.1 Million $3.8 Million Cash Flow Positive With $4.8 Million in Cash Reaffirms Guidance of $210-$220 Million Net Revenue for 2015

DENVER, CO -- (Marketwired) -- 05/11/15 -- MusclePharm Corporation (OTCQB: MSLP) ("MusclePharm" or the "Company"), a scientifically driven, performance-lifestyle sports nutrition company, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2015.

Operating and Financial Highlights for First Quarter 2015

  • Net revenue of $41.3 million -- 26% growth sequentially quarter-over-quarter;
  • $3.8 million cash flow positive for Q1 with $4.8 million in cash;
  • Cash flow increased $5.9 million -- a year-over-year increase of 282%;
  • $17.1 million sales backlog, an increase of $12 million quarter-over-quarter;
  • Gross margin increased to 34.8%, up 320 basis points versus 2014 full year results and 1170 basis points sequentially of 51%.

"We were very pleased with the fundamentals of our business in the first quarter and the positive momentum we have built in continued revenue contributions, positive cash flow and sustainable margins," said Brad Pyatt, MusclePharm's chairman and chief executive officer. "While our year-over-year revenue was down slightly, due largely to the timing of our key Arnold Classic sales event, we closed the quarter with $17.1 million in sales backlog orders and we are on track for strong revenue growth for the remainder of the year driven by the continued strengthening of our core products, new product releases, expanding our distribution network and entering into new retail outlets. At the same time, we are actively managing our cash position, with strong increases in cash flow this quarter, and managing our operating expenses, with initiatives in place to keep costs in line for the remainder of the year. We believe we are well positioned for continued top line growth as we approach our goal of profitability and long-term shareholder value creation."

Recent Highlights

  • Grew distribution network substantially with 45,000 retailers, up from 35,000 at the end of 2014, and 120 international countries supported, up from 110 at the end of 2014.
  • Launched the MusclePharm Black Label, designed for elite, high-performing athletes exclusively at GNC stores and GNC.com.
  • Entered into the energy drink category, currently a $9 billion market in the US and $27 billion globally, with five SKUs launched this quarter.
  • Executed a manufacturing agreement with Capstone Nutrition with an option to complete an acquisition within the next 18 months to enhance vertical integration strategy.
  • Improved corporate governance best practices, announcing the intention to separate the role of Chairman of the Board, with Brad Pyatt remaining the CEO, and increase the number of directors on the Board to seven, with five independent directors.

Financial Results for First Quarter 2015

Net revenue was $41.3 million, an increase of 26% sequentially quarter-over-quarter. The Company also closed the quarter with a sales backlog of $17.1 million compared to $5.1 million at the end of the year 2014 and $9.1 million at the end of the first quarter 2014. This growth in backlog was largely due to the timing of a key company sales event, the Arnold Classic, which was held later in the quarter, resulting in order fulfillment and revenue recognition in the second quarter of 2015. Net revenues also reflected slower than expected international sales due to currency fluctuations and the strength of the U.S. dollar. The Company has taken significant steps to globalize our supply chain to address this issue.

Cash flow increased $5.9 million, or 282%, to a positive $3.8 million from negative $2.1 million in the year prior. Even with a lower top line performance, the Company increased its end of quarter cash position by nearly $4 million.

Gross margin was 34.8%, up 320 basis points over the 2014 full year gross margin.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure was ($1.6) million, which eliminates depreciation, amortization, interest, taxes, stock-based compensation, and other expenses.

Reaffirmed 2015 Full-Year Guidance

  • Net revenue is expected to be in the range of $210 to $220 million.
  • Sustainable gross margin is expected to be in the range of 31 to 33 percent.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), the earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures adjusted for income taxes, depreciation and amortization of property and equipment, amortization of intangible assets, provision for doubtful accounts, amortization of prepaid stock compensation, amortization of prepaid sponsorship fees, stock based compensation, and issuance of common stock warrants. Management believes that the non-GAAP measures used in this release provide investors with important perspectives into the Company's ongoing business performance. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.
