YOD Q1 2016 Operating Results
Revenue for Q1 2016, which comprised of pre- Sun Seven Stars, legacy model revenue, was $1,270,000, as compared to $1,028,000 for the same period in 2015, an increase of approximately $242,000, or 24%. This revenue increase was primarily attributed to our new distribution channels on Over-the-Top platforms, the aggregate of which comprised 51% of total revenues in Q1 2016.
Cost of revenues was $916,000 for Q1 2016, as compared to $1,043,000 for Q1 2015. The decrease of $127,000, or 12%, was primarily due to delays in expected revenue from specific content titles, which impacted our content license cost amortization pattern.
Gross profit for Q1 2016 was $354,000, as compared to gross loss of $15,000 during the same period in 2015. The increase in gross profit of approximately $369,000 was primarily due to increase in revenues from new and existing distribution channels.
Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") for Q1 2016, decreased approximately $283,000, to $2,165,000, as compared to $2,448,000 for the same period, 2015.
Salaries and personnel costs are the primary components of SG&A, accounting for 33% of SG&A expenses for Q1 2016. During Q1 2016, salaries and personnel costs totaled $709,000, a decrease of $146,000, or 17%, as compared to $855,000 for the same period of 2015. The decrease was primarily due to staff reductions made as part of business transformation and re-alignment strategy, which will be a primary focus for the 2016 fiscal year.
Net loss was $2,274,000 for Q1 2016 compared to $2,919,000 in the comparable 2015 period. Basic and diluted loss per share for Q1 2016 was $0.09 cents as compared to a $0.12 cent loss per share in the same period in 2015.
As of March 31, 2016, the Company had cash of approximately $12,035,000 and total current assets of approximately $15,619,000.
CEO Mingcheng Tao stated, "The evolution of the YOU On Demand 4-vertical business model is well underway with three promising and key business development partnerships announced over the past several weeks. Those include business alignments with Frequency Networks, GoLive TV and Huawei. With more business development deals to be announced in the immediate future, we expect new business revenue, meaning revenue from YOU On Demand's shift to a more global, mobile-driven, consumer data management platform for both enterprises and consumers, to begin ramping in Q3 2016. YOU On Demand's goal is to be able to reach 600 million addressable and contracted users (under contract with our distribution partners) by the end of 2016. In the meantime, YOU On Demand continues to streamline its operations as part of its business transformation and re-alignment strategy and that can be most clearly seen in the continued reduction in our operating expenses, which began last year."
