Second Quarter Business Highlights

  • The Company rolled out new rate cards and price increases in select markets to select clients to better align pricing with the value the Company delivers to its various partners.
  • The Company reduced its operating expenses by 48% year-over-year and aligned resources to better optimize long-term growth opportunities. This included implementing a new go-to-market strategy focused on client services and local market dynamics, deepening customer relationships and increasing customer spend across Leafly’s full suite of products and services.
  • Leafly ended Q2 with 5,261 retail accounts, which is flat year-over-year in a difficult environment, and as the Company experiences churn including out-of-business retailers and non-profitable accounts. Leafly continues to pursue a healthier and stable base of customers.
  • Retailer average revenue per account (“ARPA”) was $558, a decline of $21 from Q2 2022, but in-line sequentially with Q1 2023. The recent trend is largely driven by churn in certain markets and by our transition to a new go-to-market strategy.
  • To help reduce retailer friction, Leafly launched a beta version of a new order API, which allows any point-of-sale system to integrate with Leafly and receive orders into store point-of-sale systems. In addition, Leafly expanded its deal capabilities, giving retailers greater options and flexibility in deal creation on the platform.
  • The Company continued to improve the consumer shopping experience to increase consumer retention and targeting capabilities. Leafly improved the account creation and sign-in process to make the checkout experience faster. As part of Leafly’s focus on conversion to sales, consumers can now access their order history in a more streamlined shopping experience.

Financial Outlook

Today, Leafly is issuing third quarter 2023 guidance. Based on current business trends and conditions, the financial outlook is expected to be around $11 million in revenue and adjusted EBITDA loss to be around $0.5 million.

Leafly has not provided a quantitative reconciliation of forecasted GAAP net income (loss) to forecasted total Adjusted EBITDA within this communication because the Company is unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to calculate certain reconciling items with confidence. These items include, but are not limited to: depreciation and amortization expense from new assets; impairments of assets; changes in the valuation of any derivatives; the valuation of, and changes in, grants of equity-based compensation; and gains or losses on modification or extinguishment of debt. These items, which could materially affect the computation of forward-looking GAAP net income (loss), are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, many of which are outside of Leafly’s control. For more information regarding the non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this communication, please see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.

Leafly will host a conference call and webcast to discuss the results today, Thursday, August 10, 2023 at 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time (4:30 p.m. Eastern Time). A live webcast of the call can be accessed from Leafly’s Investor Relations website at https://investor.leafly.com.

Definitions of Key Performance Metrics

Monthly active users Monthly active users (“MAUs”) represents the total unique visitors to Leafly websites and native apps each month, which in turn is a top-of-the-funnel metric that represents the maximum potential unique visitors that could become a customer of a dispensary or brand listed on Leafly’s platform, within a given month.

Leafly is reexamining its MAU metric and expects to discontinue reporting it in its next quarterly filing as we continue to implement a content-shift to focus on compelling and engaging content that helps drive shopping behaviors farther down the funnel.

Ending retail accounts Ending retail accounts is the number of paying retailer accounts with Leafly as of the last month of the respective period. Retail accounts can include more than one retailer.

Retailer average revenue per account Retailer ARPA is calculated as monthly retail revenue, on an account basis, divided by the number of retail accounts that were active during that same month. An active account is one that had an active paying subscription with Leafly in the month. Leafly does not provide retailers with an ongoing free subscription offering but may offer a free introductory period with certain subscriptions.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES - UNAUDITED

(in thousands)

 

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes and Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) and Adjusted EBITDA

To provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, we have disclosed EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, both of which are non-GAAP financial measures that we calculate as net loss before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization expense in the case of EBITDA and further adjusted to exclude non-cash, unusual and/or infrequent costs in the case of Adjusted EBITDA. Below we have provided a reconciliation of net (loss) income (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) to EBITDA and from EBITDA to Adjusted EBITDA.

We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because these metrics are a key measure used by our management to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans, and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of investment capacity. Accordingly, we believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider either in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are as follows:

  • although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and both EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;
  • EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; and
  • EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect interest or tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us.

Because of these limitations, you should consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including net (loss) income and our other GAAP results.

A reconciliation of net (loss) income to non-GAAP EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is as follows:
