Third Quarter 2018 Financial Results
Net sales increased 24% to $176.9 million in the third quarter of 2018 from $142.8 million in the third quarter of 2017. The increase was primarily driven by the continued expansion of products and properties in the Company’s portfolio.
In the third quarter of 2018, the number of active properties increased 38% to 553 from 400 and net sales per active property decreased 10%. On a geographical basis, net sales in the United States increased 16% to $121.3 million and net sales internationally increased 44% to $55.6 million primarily due to growth in Europe. On a product category basis, net sales of figures increased 24% to $141.8 million and net sales of other products increased 26% to $35.2 million versus the third quarter of 2017.

Gross margin1 in the third quarter of 2018 decreased 250 basis points to 38.4% compared to 40.9% in the third quarter of 2017. The lower gross margin1 in the third quarter of 2018 reflected a reduction in the average sales price to our European customers due in part to an increase in shipments directly from our factories for which we generally provide sales discounts, as well as selective price reductions in Europe to better align global product pricing following the Underground Toys acquisition.
SG&A expenses increased 27% to $41.3 million in the third quarter of 2018 from $32.5 million in the third quarter of 2017. The majority of the increase was driven by growth in the business, including incremental expenses associated with the Company’s direct distribution model in Europe, our Loungefly operations and Funko Animation Studios. More specifically, personnel and commission expenses increased $3.9 million (which includes $1.0 million of severance costs), primarily driven by the buildout of the Company’s sales, operating and administrative teams worldwide, equity-based compensation increased $3.0 million, and facilities and rent expenses increased $1.9 million, primarily due to new facilities in Europe. In addition, the Company incurred approximately $2.7 million in transaction costs and other non-recurring expenses of which the majority is related to a one-time $2.0 million consent fee related to certain existing license agreements which we expect to pay in connection with the renewal of such licensing agreements.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased 18% to $10.0 million in the third quarter of 2018 from $8.4 million in the third quarter of 2017. The majority of the increase was from higher depreciation on mold and tooling costs as the Company continues to expand its product offerings and make leasehold improvements at its corporate offices and warehouse facilities.
Net interest expense decreased 37% to $5.8 million in the third quarter of 2018 from $9.1 million in the third quarter of 2017 due to lower debt levels and lower rates on borrowings.
The Company ended the third quarter of 2018 with net debt of $248.5 million, which includes total debt of $259.1 million less cash and cash equivalents of $10.6 million. See additional information regarding net debt under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below. Inventory was $81.2 million on September 30, 2018, versus $79.1 million on December 31, 2017, and $78.8 million on September 30, 2017.
1 Gross margin is calculated as net sales less cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) as a percentage of net sales.
Increased 2018 Outlook
For the full year 2018, Funko now expects net sales to be in a range of approximately $645 million to $650 million, up from a range of $620 million to $630 million in the outlook presented on August 9, 2018. Adjusted EBITDA is now expected to be in a range of approximately $108 million to $112 million, compared to a range of $104 million to $112 million in the August outlook. Adjusted Pro Forma EPS is now expected to be in a range of $0.68 to $0.73, up from a range of $0.60 to $0.70 in the August outlook. The Adjusted Pro Forma EPS is based on estimated adjusted pro forma average diluted shares outstanding of 51.5 million for the full year 2018.
A table summarizing this outlook has been provided at the end of this release.
Subsequent Events
On October 22, 2018, the Company closed a previously announced refinancing of its term loan and revolving credit facility with a group of lenders led by PNC Capital Markets and JPMorgan Chase Bank. Under the terms of the new facilities (the details of which are included in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 25, 2018), the Company’s annual interest costs will be reduced significantly, beginning in the fourth quarter of 2018. The Company also expects to incur a one-time, non-cash charge of approximately $4.5 million for the write-off of remaining capitalized financing costs in the fourth quarter of 2018.

Presentation
This press release presents historical results of Funko, Inc. for the third quarter ended September 30, 2018, and of Funko Acquisition Holdings, LLC (“FAH, LLC”), the predecessor of Funko, Inc. for financial reporting purposes, for the third quarter ended September 30, 2017. The initial public offering (“IPO”) and related reorganization transactions (the “Transactions”) that occurred on or before November 6, 2017 resulted in the Company being the sole managing member of FAH, LLC. As a result, the Company consolidates the financial results of FAH, LLC and reports a non-controlling interest in its consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the historical results of FAH, LLC do not purport to reflect what the results of operations of Funko, Inc would have been had the Company’s IPO and related transactions occurred prior to such periods. As the Transactions are considered transactions among entities under common control, the financial statements for the periods prior to the IPO and related transactions have been adjusted to combine the previously separate entities for presentation purposes. Unless otherwise indicated, all financial comparisons in this press release compare our financial results from the third quarter of 2018 to our financial results from the third quarter of 2017.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income, Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings per Diluted Share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, U.S. GAAP. Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income, Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings per Diluted Share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of our financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), earnings per share or any other performance measure derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We define Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income as net income attributable to Funko, Inc adjusted for the reallocation of income attributable to non-controlling interests from the assumed exchange of all outstanding common units and options in FAH, LLC (or the common unit equivalent of profit interests in FAH, LLC for periods prior to the IPO) for newly issued-shares of Class A common stock of Funko, Inc. and further adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash charges and other items that we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance. These items include, among other things, reallocation of net income attributable to non-controlling interests, monitoring charges, non-cash charges related to equity-based compensation programs, earnout fair market value adjustments, inventory step-ups, acquisition transaction costs, foreign currency transaction gains and losses and other unusual or one-time items, and the income tax expense effect of (1) these adjustments and (2) the pass-through entity taxable income as if the parent company was a subchapter C corporation in periods prior to the IPO. We define Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings per Diluted Share as Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income divided by the weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding, assuming (1) the full exchange of all outstanding common units and options in FAH, LLC (or the common unit equivalent of profits interest in FAH, LLC for periods prior to the IPO) for newly issued-shares of Class A common stock of Funko, Inc. and (2) the dilutive effect of stock options and unvested common units, if any. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA further adjusted for monitoring fees, non-cash charges related to equity-based compensation programs, earnout fair market value adjustments, inventory step-ups, acquisition transaction costs, foreign currency transaction gains and losses and other unusual or one-time items. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income, Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings per Diluted Share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by our competitors, because not all companies and analysts calculate Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income, Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings per Diluted Share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner. We present Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income, Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings per Diluted Share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we consider them to be important supplemental measures of our performance and believe they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. Management believes that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by including these non-GAAP financial measures as a reasonable basis for comparing our ongoing results of operations. Management uses Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income, Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings per Diluted Share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a measurement of operating performance because they assist us in comparing the operating performance of our business on a consistent basis, as they remove the impact of items not directly resulting from our core operations; for planning purposes, including the preparation of our internal annual operating budget and financial projections; as a consideration to assess incentive compensation for our employees; to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of our operational strategies; and to evaluate our capacity to expand our business.
By providing these non-GAAP financial measures, together with reconciliations, we believe we are enhancing investors’ understanding of our business and our results of operations, as well as assisting investors in evaluating how well we are executing our strategic initiatives. In addition, our senior secured credit facilities use Adjusted EBITDA to measure our compliance with covenants such as senior leverage ratio. Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income, Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings per Diluted Share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative to, or a substitute for net income (loss) or other financial statement data presented in this press release as indicators of financial performance. Some of the limitations are:
- such measures do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
- such measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
- such measures do not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
- although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and such measures do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and
- other companies in our industry may calculate such measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
Due to these limitations, Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income, Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings per Diluted Share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using these non-GAAP measures only supplementally. As noted in the table below, Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income, Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings per Diluted Share and Adjusted EBITDA include adjustments for non-cash charges related to equity-based compensation programs, earnout fair market value adjustments, inventory step-ups, acquisition transaction costs, foreign currency transaction gains and losses, and other unusual or one-time items. It is reasonable to expect that these items will occur in future periods. However, we believe these adjustments are appropriate because the amounts recognized can vary significantly from period to period, do not directly relate to the ongoing operations of our business and complicate comparisons of our internal operating results and operating results of other companies over time. In addition, Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income, Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings per Diluted Share and Adjusted EBITDA include adjustments for other items, such as monitoring fees, that we do not expect to regularly record following our IPO. Each of the normal recurring adjustments and other adjustments described herein and in the reconciliation table below help management with a measure of our core operating performance over time by removing items that are not related to day-to-day operations.
In addition, this press release refers to the non-GAAP financial measure Net Debt, which consists of total debt as reported on the consolidated balance sheet less cash and cash equivalents. Management believes that Net Debt provides useful information to investors because it shows the Company’s outstanding debt obligations that could not be satisfied by its cash and cash equivalents on hand.
The following tables reconcile Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income, Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings per Diluted Share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial performance measure, which is net income (loss) (in thousands):
