      SEATTLE, Aug. 5, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- RealNetworks, Inc. (Nasdaq: RNWK), a leader in digital media software and services, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020.

      • Consolidated revenue of $40.4 million; core revenue without Napster of $17.1 million, up 9% year-over-year
      • Games revenue up 23% year-over-year and 12% quarter-over-quarter driven by success of free-to-play strategy
      • Introduced two innovative new AI-powered consumer PC software products: RealPlayer® 20/20 and StarSearch™ by Real®
      • SAFR was awarded two Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contracts with the United States Air Force worth $1.9 million
      • The RealNetworks Foundation committed $1 million in 2020 grants to help address racial injustice and the COVID-19 Pandemic
      • Appointed Mike Ensing President and Chief Operating Officer, succeeding Max Pellegrini

      Management Commentary
      "In Q2 Real delivered solid results. We were very pleased with our strong operational execution in the first full quarter of living and working during the global pandemic," said Rob Glaser, Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer of RealNetworks. "We generated a 9% year-over-year increase in our core revenue when not including Napster. In addition, we narrowed our adjusted EBITDA loss, our fourth consecutive quarter of year-over-year improvement in this metric. We are putting an appropriate amount of fuel into our growth businesses while also closely managing our overall expenses."

      Mr. Glaser continued, "We were excited to introduce two new consumer products in commemoration of the 25th anniversary of the streaming industry. RealPlayer® 20/20 and StarSearch™ by Real® utilize the power of AI and our SAFR computer vision platform to make streaming in today's world even better. In addition, we are continuing to enhance our world-class SAFR platform and service focused primarily on the traditional security and safety markets along with innovations focused on new needs at the intersection of public health and public safety. In particular, we were honored to be awarded two SBIR contracts by the U.S. Air Force.  These contracts both enable us to continue to enhance the SAFR platform and also support the important missions of our U.S. armed forces while enhancing their safety."

      About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

      To supplement RealNetworks' consolidated financial information presented in accordance with GAAP in this press release, the company also discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA and contribution margin by reportable segment, which management believes provide investors with useful information.

      In the financial tables of our earnings press release, RealNetworks has included reconciliations of GAAP net income (loss) including noncontrolling interests to adjusted EBITDA and operating income (loss) by reportable segment to contribution margin by reportable segment.

      The rationale for management's use of non-GAAP measures is included in the supplementary materials presented with the quarterly earnings materials.  Please refer to Exhibit 99.2 ("Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures") to the company's report on Form 8-K, which is being submitted today to the SEC.

      Forward-Looking Statements

      This press release contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including statements relating to our current expectations regarding our future growth, profitability, and market position, our financial condition and liquidity, our strategic focus and initiatives, product plans, agreements with partners, use of loan proceeds, our ability to maintain compliance with Nasdaq listing standards, and the growth and future prospects relating to our Napster segment. All statements contained in this press release that do not relate to matters of historical fact should be considered forward-looking statements.  These statements reflect our expectations as of today, and actual results may differ materially from the results predicted. Factors that could cause actual results for RealNetworks, on a consolidated basis, to differ from the results predicted include: our ability to realize operating efficiencies, growth and other benefits from the implementation of our growth initiatives and restructuring efforts; cash usage and conservation, and the pursuit of additional funding sources; successful monetization of our products and services; competitive risks, including the emergence or growth of competing technologies, products and services; potential outcomes and effects of claims and legal proceedings; risks associated with key customer or strategic relationships and business acquisitions; challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic; disruptions in the global financial markets, including changes in consumer spending and impacts to credit availability; fluctuations in foreign currencies; and unique risk factors that relate to our Napster segment, such as risks stemming from its streaming music service and related music royalties. More information about potential risk factors that could affect our business and financial results is included in RealNetworks' annual report on Form 10-K for the most recent year ended December 31, 2019, its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and in other reports and documents filed by RealNetworks from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The preparation of our financial statements and forward-looking financial guidance requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. RealNetworks assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements or information, which are in effect as of their respective dates.
