Corsair Gaming Reports Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results; Beats Expectations; Reiterates Full Year Financial Outlook

Milpitas, CA, August 3, 2023Corsair Gaming, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRSR) (“Corsair” or the “Company”), a leading global provider and innovator of high-performance gear for gamers, streamers, content-creators, and gaming PC builders, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023, and reiterated its financial outlook for the full year 2023.

Second Quarter 2023 Select Financial Metrics

Net revenue was $325.4 million compared to $283.9 million in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 14.6%. Gaming components and systems segment net revenue was $246.7 million compared to $194.9 million in the second quarter of 2022, while Gamer and creator peripherals segment net revenue was $78.8 million compared to $89.0 million in the second quarter of 2022.

Adjusted net income was $9.8 million, or net income of $0.09 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net loss of $19.0 million, or a net loss of $0.20 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2022.
Adjusted EBITDA was $17.8 million, compared to a loss of $11.0 million in the second quarter of 2022.
Cash and cash equivalents were $184.0 million as of June 30, 2023.

 

First Half 2023 Select Financial Metrics

Net revenue was $679.4 million compared to $664.6 million in the first six months of 2022, an increase of 2.2%. Gaming components and systems segment net revenue was $511.7 million compared to $441.5 million in the first six months of 2022, while Gamer and creator peripherals segment net revenue was $167.7 million compared to $223.1 million in the first six months of 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA was $38.3 million, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $4.4 million in the first six months of 2022.

 

Andy Paul, Chief Executive Officer of Corsair, stated, “We are very excited with our Q2 and 1H results, showing growth in revenue, gross margin, and profitability compared to last year. The gaming hardware market improved during the second quarter with less discounting from peripheral competitors and continued strong gaming PC build activity driven by new games and new graphics cards launching. Activity in the U.S. and Europe is now on par with mid-2022 and substantially higher than pre-pandemic levels. We continue to take market share in our components and memory segment and improve gross margins in our peripheral categories, with less market discounting occurring. In June, we launched a new ecosystem, iCUE link, which uses special proprietary connectors and protocols so that components can be connected together in series with one cable, and then controlled individually via our iCUE software. We believe this makes gaming system building much easier and should entice more new first-time customers. Following the quarter close, we announced the acquisition of certain assets of Drop, a community-based e-commerce company specializing in customized DIY keyboards and keycaps and many other enthusiast and audiophile products. We expect some significant opportunities and synergies here, both by offering custom versions of our products on the Drop site, as well as introducing some of their popular products into our worldwide channel.”

Michael G. Potter, Chief Financial Officer of Corsair, stated, “We are pleased with the substantial financial improvement led by revenue growth, improved gross margins, steadily improving adjusted EBITDA, and a more balanced inventory. We exceeded our near-term expectations for gross margins, which increased 140 basis points compared to Q1 2023, and increased 1,270 basis points and 580 basis points, compared to Q2 2022 with and without the impact of the Q2 2022 excess inventory reserve, as we benefitted from ongoing improvements in freight costs, as well as new products. We continued to be operational cash flow positive, while investing in inventory to support the expected stronger second half of 2023. Shortly after quarter-end we invested in growth via our acquisition of certain of Drop’s assets. We expect liquidity to remain excellent for the rest of 2023 allowing us to be flexible as opportunities present themselves.”

Financial Outlook

The Company reiterated its outlook for the full year 2023 for revenue to be flat to slightly up in a softer economic environment as compared to 2022. Corsair continues to expect an improvement for the full year 2023 in adjusted EBITDA led by an improvement in margin, normalized shipping costs, and continued tight operating expense controls.

Net revenue for the full year 2023 is expected to be in the range of $1.35 billion to $1.55 billion.
Adjusted operating income to be in the range of $75 million to $95 million.
Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $90 million to $110 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, depreciation and 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.


 

Recent Developments

Acquired certain assets of Drop, a leading privately held peripheral developer known for its customizable mechanical keyboards and switches, and its millions-member strong enthusiast community. Personalized keyboards that can be modified by the consumer is one of the fastest growing trends in the gaming peripheral space.
Enhanced the Company's popular Stream Deck Mobile iOS app, allowing every iPhone or iPad user to use a 6-button app-based Stream Deck for free. A Pro subscription model unlocks further functionality and up to 64 customizable controls, empowering millions of users and making it easier to streamline tasks and save time using the iPhone or iPad they already know and love.
Expanded Corsair's award-winning memory line-up with DOMINATOR TITANIUM DDR5 memory. Built using some of the fastest DDR5 ICs alongside patented CORSAIR DHX cooling technology for improved overclocking potential, DOMINATOR TITANIUM continues the DOMINATOR legacy with incredible design and fast performance. Boasting 11 vibrant individually addressable RGB LEDs and a replaceable top-bar, DOMINATOR TITANIUM offers unique customization options, alongside its flagship performance.
Delivered increased simplicity to DIY PC builders with the launch of the iCUE LINK Smart Component Ecosystem. iCUE LINK changes the way experienced PC builders and newcomers alike will create their next PC, implementing patent-pending single-cable technology to reduce the time it takes to build and set up a new performance PC by as much as 50% while dramatically reducing cable management and wire clutter.

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 2023, including its expectations regarding continued growth in the gaming hardware market in the second half of 2023 and its expectations regarding liquidity in the second half of 2023 led by estimated revenue growth and continued margin improvements; its expectations regarding potential significant opportunities and synergies from the acquisition of certain of Drop’s assets; and its estimated full year 2023 net revenue, adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA. 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 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 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 impact of global instability, such as the war between Russia and Ukraine, and any sanctions or other geopolitical tensions that may result therefrom; delays or disruptions at our or third-parties’ manufacturing and distribution facilities; our ability to successfully integrate any companies or assets we may acquire; currency exchange rate fluctuations or international trade disputes resulting in our gear 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, 2022 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 ended June 30, 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, certain acquisition-related and integration-related 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, certain acquisition-related and integration-related 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, certain acquisition-related and integration-related costs, tax 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.

Q2 2023 FINANCIAL RESULTS August 3, 2023 Exhibit 99.2


Slide 2

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, business plans and objectives, potential growth opportunities, potential pricing of products, potential market leadership, financing plans, competitive position, technological, industry or market trends 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 lingering impacts and future outbreaks of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts on its operations and the operations of its manufacturers, retailers and other partners, as well as its lingering impacts on the economy overall, including capital markets; 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, and any sanctions or other geopolitical tensions that may result therefrom; 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, 2022 filed 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.

Slide 17

Q2 2023 AND YTD RESULTS(1) Q2'23 and YTD'23 showed growth in revenue, gross margin and profitability over last year periods. Q2'23 revenue growth of 14.6% over prior year, exceeding expectations and consensus, as hardware spend is at significantly higher levels than pre-pandemic, and we continued to gain share in components categories. European revenues were 32.3% as percent of total revenue and have continued to increase from the depressed 25.1% level in Q2'22 after the impacts of the Russian invasion of the Ukraine on the European consumer. Historically this had been in the high thirty percentile. Gross profit and margin showed strong growth with healthy inventory profiles and reduced freight costs. Excluding the one-time Q2'22 impact of Inventory reserve in excess of normal run rate to address overhang in the channel, Q2'23 gross margin improved 580 bps. Q2'23 Adjusted EPS at $0.09/diluted share, up $0.29 from Q2'22 loss of $0.20. YTD Adjusted EBITDA as % of revenue up 4.9% to 5.6%. ($ in millions except EPS and percentages) Q2'22 Q2'23 Y/Y YTD'22 YTD'23 Y/Y Net Revenue $283.9  $325.4  14.6% $664.6  $679.4  2.2% Gross Profit $36.5  $82.8  127.2% $127.2  $168.2  32.2% Gross Margin (2) 12.8% 25.5% 1270 bps 19.1% 24.8% 570 bps Operating Income (Loss) ($55.0) ($2.7) -95.1% ($57.4) ($1.7) -97.1% Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) ($14.2) $15.9  -211.6% ($0.9) $34.0  -3952.2% Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Common Stockholders ($59.4) $1.1 -101.8% ($64.5) $0.0 -100.1% Earnings (Loss) per Share (Diluted)  $(0.62)  $0.01  -101.6%  $(0.68)  $0.00   -100.0% Adjusted Net Income (Loss) ($19.0) $9.8  -151.7% ($9.8) $21.8  -321.3% Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share (Diluted)  $(0.20)  $0.09  -145.0%  $(0.10)  $0.20  -300.0% Adjusted EBITDA ($11.0) $17.8  -261.1% $4.4  $38.3  770.9% See appendix for reconciliation of non-GAAP metrics to most comparable GAAP metrics. Q2'22 had a $19.5m of Inventory reserve in excess of normal run rate to address overhang in the channel, which negatively impacted gross margin % by ~6.9%


Slide 18

Q2 2023 AND YTD SEGMENT RESULTS 26.6% Q2'23 growth in Components and Systems segment, exceeding our expectations, as we continue to gain share in most Component categories. Market for self-built PCs remains strong as new builds are driven by the introduction of new hardware platforms, including new generation of GPUs.  We believe this is in part coming from the surge of new gaming hardware buyers who entered the market in 2020/2021 and are now starting to upgrade. Gross margin on Components and Systems segment up significantly, as Q2'22 had a onetime inventory reserve adjustment and as freight costs have come down. Excessive discounting in the Gamer and Creator Peripheral segment market appears to have settled down, as competitors appear to have burned through excess channel inventory several quarters after Corsair did.  As we have not been matching these excessive discounts, there has been some near-term share loss. Gaming Components and Systems Q2'23 and YTD Results ($ in millions except percentages) Q2'22 Q2'23 Y/Y YTD'22 YTD'23 Y/Y Net Revenue $194.9  $246.7  26.6% $441.5  $511.7  15.9% % of Total Net Revenue 68.7% 75.8% 710 bps 66.4% 75.3% 890 bps Gross Profit $25.9  $57.3  121.3% $73.6  $116.1  57.7% Gross Margin 13.3% 23.2% 990 bps 16.7% 22.7% 600 bps Gamer and Creator Peripherals Q2'23 and YTD Results ($ in millions except percentages) Q2'22 Q2'23 Y/Y YTD'22 YTD'23 Y/Y Net Revenue $89.0  $78.8  -11.5% $223.1  $167.7  -24.8% % of Total Net Revenue 31.3% 24.2% -710 bps 33.6% 24.7% -890 bps Gross Profit $10.6  $25.5  141.6% $53.6  $52.2  -2.7% Gross Margin 11.9% 32.4% 2050 bps 24.0% 31.1% 710 bps Note: Q2'22 gross profit had a $19.5m of Inventory reserve in excess of normal run rate to address overhang in the channel, which negatively impacted gross margin % by ~6.9% overall

FINANCIAL GUIDANCE FY 2023(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.

Slide 25

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.
