Delivers 16% Q4 YoY Revenue Growth in Gamer and Creator Peripherals, with 6% Growth in Total FY23 Revenue, and Over 100% Growth in FY23 Adjusted EBITDA

MILPITAS, CA, February 13, 2024 – Corsair Gaming, Inc.

Definitions of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release and reconciliations of such measures to their nearest GAAP equivalents are included below under the heading “Use and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Andy Paul, Chief Executive Officer of Corsair, stated, “I am really excited to see that the gaming market is now showing signs of growth again after relaxing back from the surge that occurred during the pandemic. Consumer spending during the recent holiday period was better than we expected and we see that the high inventory levels at our competitors that were causing heavy discounting are generally back to normal. We saw a 16% year over year increase in our Gamer and Creator Peripherals segment for Q4 2023, which is a reflection of the market returning to growth and also Corsair gaining market share.”

“I am also very pleased with our overall performance for the full year. In Q1 2023, we were still lapping a quarter where most people were working at home but for the last three quarters of 2023 we saw overall growth of 11%. We launched some really exciting products during 2023, and many were sold out during Q4 2023, including our new PC controller, our new Elgato teleprompter, our new headsets and our new line of power supplies. In fact, we were airfreighting many of these products into our hubs during much of Q4 2023 to meet demand. We also launched our Elgato Marketplace, which sells apps and plug-ins for our Stream Deck, and has products from both us and third party developers. This is doing better than expected and already 35% of the Stream Deck installed base have opened accounts on the marketplace website.”

“The gaming hardware market in the United States and Europe, where we have most of our business, is now at a level between 30% and 50% bigger than pre-pandemic years. Looking forward to 2024, we expect that the Gaming Components and Systems segment will be similar to last year since we are mid-cycle for new GPUs and the next big GPU launch and demand surge is likely to be 2025. For the Gamer and Creator Peripherals segment, we expect significant growth, especially from new products we recently launched and more that we are about to launch. In addition, we plan to enter two new product categories in 2024, sim racing and mobile controllers. We expect the overall gaming market to now enter a new growth phase as we enter a refresh cycle from the surge of consumer spending that occurred during the shelter at home years. This plus our anticipated market share gains should help to position us over the next few years, as we strive to reach over $2 billion in revenue with double-digit percentage EBITDA margins.”

Michael G. Potter, Chief Financial Officer of Corsair, stated, “We more than doubled our adjusted EBITDA to $95.1 million from $46.5 million in 2022, and turned profitable on a GAAP basis with earnings per share to $0.03 per diluted share from a loss of $0.63 per diluted share in 2022, with adjusted earnings per share tripling to $0.55 per diluted share from $0.18 per diluted share in 2022. Gross margin increased by 310 basis points to 24.7 percent for 2023 from 21.6 percent in 2022, with our Gamer and Creator Peripherals segment gross margin increasing 510 basis points to 33.7 percent from 28.6 percent in 2022, and our Gaming Components and Systems gross margin increasing 300 basis points to 21.3 percent from 18.3 percent in 2022. We benefitted from demand for new products, reduced promotional activities and improved inventory levels as we continued to work towards our long-term target gross margin levels. With regard to inventory, we have returned to target levels in both the channel and our warehouses, and we are actually light in some categories, including some of our more recent product


 

launches. We expect to build on this positive momentum in 2024, with a strong demand outlook for our new products, improved profitability and continued growth in adjusted EBITDA. Our strong cash position and our reduction of face value of debt to below $200 million positions us well to continue to invest in our business.”

Financial Outlook

For the full year 2024, Corsair’s financial outlook reflects cautious optimism. Corsair expects revenue growth to improve through 2024, with a further improvement in adjusted EBITDA led by an additional improvement in margin, stabilized shipping costs and continued tight operating expense controls.

Net revenue to be in the range of $1.45 billion to $1.60 billion.
Adjusted operating income to be in the range of $92 million to $112 million.
Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $105 million to $125 million.

Certain non-GAAP measures included in our financial outlook were not reconciled to the comparable GAAP financial measures because the GAAP measures are not accessible on a forward-looking basis. We are unable to reconcile these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts because we are currently unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the type and extent of certain items that would be expected to impact GAAP measures for these periods but would not impact the non-GAAP measures. Such items may include stock-based compensation charges, amortization, and other items. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on our GAAP financial results.

The foregoing forward-looking statements reflect our expectations as of today's date. Given the number of risk factors, uncertainties and assumptions discussed below, actual results may differ materially. We do not intend to update our financial outlook until our next quarterly results announcement.

Forward Looking Statements

Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters set forth in this press release are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, but not limited to, Corsair’s expectations regarding market headwinds and tailwinds; its expectations regarding 2024 and 2025; statements regarding new product launches and the entry into new product categories; and 2024 resulting in strong demand for Corsair’s products and improved profitability and continued growth in adjusted EBITDA; its estimated full year 2024 net revenue, adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA; and whether and when Corsair will reach revenue over $2 billion with double-digit percentage EBITDA margins. Forward-looking statements are based on our management’s beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to them. Because such statements are based on expectations as to future financial and operating results and are not statements of fact, actual results may differ materially from those projected. Factors which may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: current macroeconomic conditions, including the impacts of high inflation and risk of recession on demand for our products, consumer confidence and financial markets generally; the lingering impacts and future outbreaks of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts on our operations and the operations of our manufacturers, retailers and other partners, as well as its impacts on the economy overall, including capital markets; our ability to build and maintain the strength of our brand among gaming and streaming enthusiasts and our ability to continuously develop and successfully market new products and improvements to existing products; the introduction and success of new third-party high-performance


 

computer hardware, particularly graphics processing units and central processing units as well as sophisticated new video games; fluctuations in operating results; the risk that we are not able to compete with competitors and/or that the gaming industry, including streaming and esports, does not grow as expected or declines; the loss or inability to attract and retain key management; the impacts from geopolitical events and unrest; delays or disruptions at our or third-parties’ manufacturing and distribution facilities; our ability to successfully integrate any companies or assets we have acquired or may acquire; currency exchange rate fluctuations or international trade disputes resulting in our products becoming relatively more expensive to our overseas customers or resulting in an increase in our manufacturing costs; and the other factors described under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and our subsequent filings with the SEC. Copies of each filing may be obtained from us or the SEC. All forward-looking statements reflect our beliefs and assumptions only as of the date of this press release. We undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect future events or circumstances. Our results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2023 are also not necessarily indicative of our operating results for any future periods.

Use and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, this earnings release presents certain non-GAAP financial information, including adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share and adjusted EBITDA. These are important financial performance measures for us, but are not financial measures as defined by GAAP. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation of or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We use adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per share and adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our operating performance and trends and make planning decisions. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the expenses and other items that we exclude in such non-GAAP measures. Accordingly, we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, and allowing for greater transparency with respect to the key financial metrics used by our management in our financial and operational decision-making. We also present these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe investors, analysts and rating agencies consider it useful in measuring our ability to meet our debt service obligations.

Our use of these terms may vary from that of others in our industry. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to net revenue, operating income (loss), net income (loss), cash provided by operating activities, or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of operating performance or liquidity. Reconciliations of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the attached schedules.

We calculate these non-GAAP financial measures as follows:

Adjusted operating income (loss), non-GAAP, is determined by adding back to GAAP operating income (loss), the impact from amortization, stock-based compensation, inventory reserve in excess of normal run rate to address overhang in the channel, certain acquisition-related and integration-related costs, acquisition accounting impact related to recognizing acquired inventory at fair value, restructuring costs, non-deferred offering costs and other costs.

 

Adjusted net income (loss), non-GAAP, is determined by adding back to GAAP net income (loss), the impact from amortization, stock-based compensation, inventory reserve in excess of normal run rate to address overhang in the channel, certain acquisition-related and integration-related costs, acquisition accounting impact related to recognizing acquired inventory at fair value, restructuring costs, asset impairment charge, non-deferred offering costs and other costs, and the related tax effects of each of these adjustments.
Adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share, non-GAAP, is determined by dividing adjusted net income (loss), non-GAAP by the respective weighted average shares outstanding, inclusive of the impact of other dilutive securities.
Adjusted EBITDA is determined by adding back to GAAP net income (loss), the impact from amortization, stock-based compensation, depreciation, interest expense, net, inventory reserve in excess of normal run rate to address overhang in the channel, certain acquisition-related and integration-related costs, acquisition accounting impact related to recognizing acquired inventory at fair value, restructuring costs, asset impairment charge, non-deferred offering costs, tax expense (benefit), and other costs.

We encourage investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure and to view these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with the related GAAP financial measures.

DISCLAIMER Forward Looking Statements This presentation contains forward looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. If the risks or uncertainties ever materialize or the assumptions prove incorrect, the Company's results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact could be deemed forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to: information or predictions concerning the Company's future financial performance (including its FY2024 guidance and long-term goals), business plans and objectives, potential growth opportunities, potential market leadership, technological, industry or market trends (including assumptions regarding the 2025 market) and potential market opportunities. These statements are based on estimates and information available to the Company at the time of this presentation and are not guarantees of future performance. Actual results could differ materially from the Company's current expectations as a result of many factors, including, but not limited to: current macroeconomic conditions, including but not limited to the impacts of high inflation and the risk of a recession on demand for our products, consumer confidence and financial markets generally; the Company’s ability to build and maintain the strength of its brand among gaming and streaming enthusiasts and its ability to continuously develop and successfully market new gear and improvements to existing gear; the introduction and success of new third-party high-performance computer hardware, particularly graphics processing units and central processing units, as well as sophisticated new video games; fluctuations in operating results; the risk that the Company is not able to compete with competitors and/or that the gaming industry, including streaming and eSports, does not grow as expected or declines; the loss or inability to attract and retain key management; the impact of global instability, such as the war between Russia and Ukraine or any conflict between China and Taiwan, and any sanctions or other geopolitical tensions that may result therefrom; the impacts from any pandemic, including any lingering impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic; delays or disruptions at manufacturing and distribution facilities of the Company or third parties; the Company's ability to successfully integrate any companies or assets it may acquire; currency exchange rate fluctuations or international trade disputes resulting in the Company’s gear becoming relatively more expensive to its overseas customers or resulting in an increase in the Company’s manufacturing costs; and the other factors described under the heading "Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed (once available) with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and its subsequent filings with the SEC. The Company assumes no obligation, and does not intend, to update these forward-looking statements, except as required by law. Investors are urged to review in detail the risks and uncertainties outlined in Corsair’s SEC filings. You may get these SEC documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC website at http://www.sec.gov. Non-GAAP Financial Measures Included in this presentation are certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted Operating Income (Loss), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Share, which are not recognized under the generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States and designed to complement the financial information presented in accordance with GAAP in the United States because management believes such measures are useful to investors. The non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP measures used by the Company may differ from the non-GAAP measures used by other companies. The Company urges you to review the reconciliation of its non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures set forth in the Appendix to this presentation, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company's business. Market & Industry Data This presentation also contains estimates and other statistical data made by independent parties and by the Company relating to the Company’s industry, the Company’s business and the market for the Company’s products and its future growth. This data involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates. In addition, projections, assumptions, and estimates of the Company’s future performance and the future performance of the market for its products are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk.

Q4 2023 AND FY2023 RESULTS(1) Solid net revenue growth for the year, with European share of total steadily climbing throughout the year reaching 38.6% in Q4’23. This is back at the level we saw prior to the war in Ukraine, while Asia Pacific region was weaker, due to soft consumer demand in China.

FINANCIAL GUIDANCE FY 2024(1) Given the number of risk factors, uncertainties and assumptions, many of which are discussed in slide 2, actual results may differ materially. We do not intend to update our financial outlook until our next quarterly results announcement. Estimates should not be viewed as a substitute for our full annual financial statement and are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period. Certain non-GAAP measures included in our financial outlook were not reconciled to the comparable GAAP financial measures because the GAAP measures are not accessible on a forward-looking basis. We are unable to reconcile these forward-looking into non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures without unreasonable effort because we are currently unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the type and extent of certain items that would be expected to impact GAAP measures for this period but would not impact the non-GAAP measures. Such items may include stock-based compensation charges, public offering related charges, depreciation and amortization, and other items. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on our GAAP financial results. Financial Metrics  2024 Guidance Net Revenues $1.45-1.60 billion Adjusted Operating Income $92-112 million Adjusted EBITDA $105-125 million

Slide 24

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES To supplement the financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, this presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial information, including Adjusted Operating Income (Loss), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Share. These are important financial performance measures for us but are not financial measures as defined by GAAP. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation of or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. We use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our operating performance and trends and make planning decisions. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the expenses and other items that we exclude in such non-GAAP financial measures. Accordingly, we believe that these non-GAAP financial provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, and allowing for greater transparency with respect to the key financial metrics used by our management in our financial and operational decision-making. We also present these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe investors, analysts and rating agencies consider them useful in measuring our ability to meet our debt service obligations. Our use of these terms may vary from that of others in our industry. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to revenues, operating income, net income, cash provided by operating activities or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of operating performance or liquidity. Reconciliations of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the appendix. We encourage investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure and to view these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with the related GAAP financial measures.
