TAIPEI, Oct. 31, 2023

TAIPEI, Oct. 31, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- GigaMedia Limited (NASDAQ: GIGM) today announced its third-quarter 2023 unaudited financial results.

Comments from Management

In the third quarter of 2023, GigaMedia reported revenues of $1.07 million, with a gross profit of $0.58 million, an operating loss of $0.89 million and a net loss of $0.51 million. Total revenues increased by 4.5% and gross profit by 3.0% if compared to last quarter, while gross profit margin at 54.4% was slightly lower than 55.2% last quarter.

While this quarter saw the first post-COVID summer vacation in Taiwan and Hong Kong, where people tended to travel more and spent less time on digital entertainments, we managed to keep growth from last quarter and have the net loss reduced.

Revenues increased by 4.5% quarter-on-quarter to approximately $1.07 million from $1.03 million last quarter.
Consolidated loss from operations for the third quarter of 2023 amounted to $0.89 million, representing a reduction of loss from $0.92 million last quarter.
The net asset value was around $4.27 per share.

Financial Position

GigaMedia maintained its solid financial position, with cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash amounting to $38.8 million as of September 30, 2023, or $3.51 per share.

Business Outlook

The following forward-looking statements reflect GigaMedia's expectations as of October 31, 2023. Given potential changes in economic conditions and consumer spending, the evolving nature of online games, and various other risk factors, including those discussed in the Company's 2022 Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as referenced below, actual results may differ materially.

"While the inflation is forecast to decline steadily, consumer sentiment still appears slow to recover," said GigaMedia CEO James Huang. "But we are cautiously optimistic for the coming quarter, where we will be dedicated to reaching a broader customer base and improving our revenue generation mechanism."

In the meantime, we will continue reviewing suitable prospects for strategic investment and acquisition targets to increase corporate growth and maximize shareholder value.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

To supplement GigaMedia's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with US GAAP, the Company uses the following measure defined as non-GAAP by the SEC: EBITDA. Management believes that EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) is a useful supplemental measure of performance because it excludes certain non-cash items such as depreciation and amortization and that EBITDA is a measure of performance used by some investors, equity analysts and others to make informed investment decisions. EBITDA is not a recognized earnings measure under GAAP and does not have a standardized meaning. Non-GAAP measures such as EBITDA should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, other financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. A limitation of using EBITDA is that it does not include all items that impact the company's net income for the period. Reconciliations to the GAAP equivalents of the non-GAAP financial measures are provided on the attached unaudited financial statements.
