Andy Paul, Chief Executive Officer of Corsair, stated, “Our Gaming Components and Systems business segment continues to show challenging results, as we near the end of the latest technology cycle of GPU cards. We believe the industry is gearing up for a strong 2025, with new Nvidia GPU cards expected to be launched in Q1, and we believe that we will see the beginning of a significant refresh cycle from the COVID lockdown surge of system builds. In the meantime, we remain a market leader in gaming components and systems, and are focused on improving efficiencies where we can across the business and working to increase profitability in our newer products. PC gaming as an activity continues to grow, and we can see that from the industry reports of headset sales, which are substantially higher than pre-pandemic levels, and are now showing growth from last year. We continue to gain positive momentum in our Gamer and Creator Peripherals segment, with 13% revenue growth on a year over year basis in the third quarter of 2024 and continued strong margins reaching 38.3% in Q3 2024. This is where most of our M&A activity is focused and we were pleased to recently announce that we completed our acquisition of the Fanatec business from Endor AG. We believe this will greatly accelerate our recent entry into the large and rapidly growing Sim Racing market. In addition, with our new Chassis, Gaming PCs, Monitors and Fanatec steering wheels, wheel bases and pedals, we have a full end-to-end solution. We are working hard on the integration of Fanatec, which we expect to have substantially completed by Q2 2025. We expect revenue in Q4 2024 will be EBITDA neutral, but are confident that business will be profitable in 2025, with Fanatec having the potential to drive meaningful revenue growth over the coming years. Overall, we expect 2025 to be a strong year with expected continued growth from Gaming and Sim Racing and a strong rebound from our components product lines.”

Michael G. Potter, Chief Financial Officer of Corsair, stated, “We were able to use our strong balance sheet to complete the Fanatec business acquisition, which we expect will be a significant long-term growth driver similar to what we have achieved with other highly successful segment leading acquisitions we have previously integrated and grown. We also increased our investment in our majority owned, key supplier for our industry leading Stream Deck family of products, which has helped us to achieve higher margins in one of our fastest growing product areas. We believe that Q2 through Q3 2024 was the trough for revenue and margins for our Gaming Components and Systems segment and we are seeing progress towards a recovery in Q4 2024. We exited the quarter with a healthy cash position and our revolver fully available. This is a result of our focus on ensuring we could invest in growth opportunities, while also reducing debt in a steady manner. In reaction to this year’s slower than expected recovery industrywide, we have taken additional cost saving actions, including a targeted workforce reduction to better align our resources with the current business environment. With these cost saving actions, we made deliberate decisions to not impact product development or revenue generating areas so that we can meet higher anticipated demand when the new GPUs are released to the market. We expect our cost saving measures to result in several millions of dollars of savings per quarter, which will start to ramp in Q4 2024. We also expect to steadily improve EBITDA margins as we return to a path to hit high single digits there.”

Updated 2024 Financial Outlook

Corsair updated its financial outlook for the full year 2024. The Company continues to expect revenue 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.

• The Company reiterated its expectation for revenue for the full year 2024 to be in the range of $1.25 billion to $1.35 billion, including approximately $20 million of EBITDA-neutral revenue in Q4 2024 from its recent Fanatec acquisition.
• Adjusted operating income is now expected to be in the range of $28 million to $43 million, compared to $48 million to $63 million previously.
• Adjusted EBITDA is now expected to be in the range of $40 million to $55 million, compared to $60 million to $75 million previously.

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 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; the risk that we are not able to successfully identify and close acquisitions, as well as 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 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.

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, one-time costs related to legal and other matters, acquisition and related integration costs, restructuring and other charges, and acquisition accounting impact related to recognizing acquired inventory at fair value.
• Adjusted net income (loss), non-GAAP, is determined by adding back to GAAP net income (loss), the impact from amortization, stock-based compensation, one-time costs related to legal and other matters, acquisition and related integration costs, restructuring and other charges, acquisition accounting impact related to recognizing acquired inventory at fair value, 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, one-time costs related to legal and other matters, depreciation, interest expense, net, acquisition and related integration costs, restructuring and other charges, acquisition accounting impact related to recognizing acquired inventory at fair value, and tax expense (benefit).

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.
