加州卡爾弗城2024年11月14日 /美通社/ -- Snail, Inc. (納斯達克股票代碼: SNAL) (以下簡稱"蝸牛"或"公司"）是一家領先的全球獨立開發商和發行商，專注于互動數字娛樂，今日宣布截至2024年9月30日的第三季度的財務業績。
蝸牛游戲聯席首席執行官Tony Tian評論道："自四月份接任蝸牛游戲聯席首席執行官以來，我們在敬業團隊的卓越才能和遠見卓識的指引下，持續推動公司業務的轉型。蝸牛游戲致力于推動互動娛樂的發展，我們對本季度旗下游戲及DLC所取得的成功感到非常高興，包括Aberration（畸變）、Bobs Tall Tales（鮑勃的奇談）的第二部分以及方舟系列。我們將一如既往地專注于提供超出預期的創新游戲體驗，忠實于塑造我們公司非凡歷程的創造性精神。"
2024年第三季度業務亮點：
2024年第三季度財務亮點：
凈收入截至2024年9月30日三個月為2,250萬美元，而同比截至2023年9月30日三個月為900萬美元，增幅為1,350萬美元或150.9%。凈收入的增加主要是由于畸變和鮑勃的奇談第二部分的發布所帶來的820萬美元收入，方舟系列游戲的總銷售額增加了590萬美元，Bellwright（頌鐘長鳴）的游戲銷售額增加了100萬美元，Genesis II（創世紀2）和Myth of Empires（帝國神話）在一些平臺上的發布所產生的收入120萬美元，部分被方舟手游銷售額減少的30萬美元，以及與方舟：生存飛升和鮑勃的奇談DLC尚未發布所產生的遞延收入增加的260萬美元所抵消。
凈利潤截至2024年9月30日三個月為20萬美元，而同比截至2023年9月30日三個月的凈虧損為440萬美元。凈利潤的增加是由于發布新游戲帶來的收入的增長。
訂購額（Bookings）截至2024年9月30日三個月為1,610萬美元，而同比截至2023年9月30日三個月為1,050萬美元，增幅為560萬美元，或53.6%。訂購額的增加是由于方舟：生存飛升在2023年第四季度的強勢發布，以及在2024年上半年推出的鮑勃的奇談擴展包和新游頌鐘長鳴，以及2024年9月及4月分別發布的方舟：生存飛升的畸變以及焦土DLC擴展包。
息稅折舊攤銷前利潤（"EBITDA"）截至2024年9月30日三個月為50萬美元，而同比截至2023年9月30日三個月的虧損為510萬美元，增幅為560萬美元，或109.7%。增加的主要原因是凈利潤增加了460萬美元，以及所得稅收益減少了140萬美元，部分被利息支出減少的30萬美元所抵消。
截至2024年9月30日，未受限制的現金為1,060萬美元，公司已償還截至2023年12yue 31日尚未償還的300萬美元循環貸款，230萬美元應付票據和80萬美元可轉換票據。
非GAAP財務指標的使用
除了按照美國公認會計原則（GAAP）確定的財務結果外，蝸牛游戲認為，息稅折舊攤銷前利潤(EBITDA)作為非GAAP指標，而訂購額（Bookings）作為運營指標，有助于評估其經營業績。訂購額和EBITDA是作為補充披露的非GAAP財務指標，不應被視為凈利潤（虧損）的替代指標，也不應被視為衡量運營活動提供的現金流量的替代指標，兩者均按照GAAP確定。蝸牛游戲補充呈現訂購額和EBITDA，是為管理層用于評估財務業績的關鍵運營指標。訂購額調整了遞延收入的影響，蝸牛游戲認為其提供了在給定時期內銷售情況的有用指標。EBITDA調整了蝸牛游戲認為不反映其業務持續運營業績的項目，例如某些非現金項目、不尋?；蚍墙洺Ｐ皂椖浚蛘咂陂g內發生變化但對其運營業績沒有實質性關聯的項目。管理層認為，訂購額和EBITDA有助于投資者和分析師了解蝸牛游戲的關鍵經營業績趨勢，而其他指標可能因長期戰略決策如資本結構、蝸牛游戲所在的稅收管轄區和資本投資而產生差異。
訂購額（Bookings）是指當期內以數字或實物方式銷售的產品和服務的凈額。訂購額等于收入扣除遞延的影響。以下是總凈收入與訂購額的調整，并是最接近GAAP的財務指標。
