Ballantyne Strong Reports Second Quarter 2021 Operating Results
Charlotte, NC, Aug. 10, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ballantyne Strong, Inc. (NYSE American: BTN) (the “Company” or “Ballantyne Strong”) today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021.
Recent Highlights
Revenue of Ballantyne Strong’s Strong Entertainment business segment (“Strong Entertainment”) increased 30% sequentially and 136% compared with the prior year.
Cinema operators are preparing for unprecedented blockbuster releases slated for release in second half 2021 and 2022.
Strong Entertainment’s “Eclipse” curvilinear screen product line continued to expand with immersive applications.
Continued expansion outside of cinema, including Illuminarium’s first immersive experience venue in Atlanta.
Ballantyne Strong announced its intent to pursue an initial public offering of Strong Entertainment.
Firefly Systems, Inc. (“Firefly”), a Ballantyne Strong portfolio holding, completed the acquisition of Curb Media, providing Firefly with access to over ten thousand top-of-car screens to significantly scale Firefly’s disruptive technology and network.
FG Financial Group, Inc. (“FG Financial”), a Ballantyne Strong’s portfolio company, announced that its first SPAC investment, FG New America Acquisition Corp., recently completed its business combination with Opportunity Financial, LLC (OppFi) which began trading on NYSE.
The Company exercised rights to acquire subscription receipts to acquire an additional 8.3 million common shares of GreenFirst Forest Products Inc. (“GreenFirst”) at $1.50CDN subsequent to the end of the second quarter. To exercise the rights, the Company utilized approximately $8.3 million USD of cash on its balance sheet and an additional $1.7 million USD generated from the sale of a portion of the rights. The GreenFirst shares are expected to be issued upon completion of GreenFirst’s acquisition of the lumber assets of Rayonier Advanced Materials Inc. (“Rayonier”) in the third calendar quarter of 2021.
“Strong Entertainment continued to see improving performance trends, with revenues more than doubling from the prior year and increasing 30% from the first quarter of this year,” commented Mark Roberson, Chief Executive Officer. “We expect attendance at cinemas to continue to strengthen as the unprecedented backlog of Hollywood blockbusters hits theatres in the second half of 2021 and into 2022. As a leader in screens and services, we are well positioned to provide services and products and benefit from the recovery in the industry.
“Our portfolio companies continue to execute well. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, GreenFirst announced that it completed its rights offering and expects to close its acquisition of Rayonier’s lumber business in the third quarter. We are very excited about GreenFirst’s transformative opportunities in its lumber business and allocated $12 million CDN of additional capital to acquire 8.3 million subscription receipts, each of which is redeemable for a common share of GreenFirst, at $1.50CDN per subscription receipt in the rights offering, which will bring our GreenFirst holdings to approximately 15 million common shares upon completion of the transaction. Also, FG Financial continued to make progress with its reinsurance business and as its first SPAC investment completed a business combination subsequent to the close of the quarter.”
Second Quarter 2021 Financial Review (As Compared to the Continuing Operations from the Three Months Ended June 30, 2020)
Revenue increased 138.3% to $6.1 million from $2.6 million. The increase was primarily due to the continuing recovery in customer demand for screen products and technical services at Strong Entertainment as exhibitors more fully reopened and Hollywood studios began to accelerate the release content into the theatrical channels.
Gross profit increased to $2.5 million from $0.1 million and gross profit margins increased to 40.4% from 4.2%. Excluding the impact of the employee retention credit, gross profit would have been 26.6% of revenue. The increase in gross profit was primarily attributable to higher screen, equipment, and field service revenues.
Operating income (loss) improved to breakeven from a loss of $2.1 million. Excluding the impact of the employee retention credit, operating loss would have been $1.3 million. The improvement was the result of increased revenues and gross profit combined with initiatives to reduce SG&A expenses.
Net loss from continuing operations was $0.8 million, or $0.04 per basic and diluted share, as compared to $3.9 million, or $0.27 per basic and diluted share in the three months ended June 30, 2020.
Adjusted EBITDA improved to negative $0.7 million from negative $1.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
Ballantyne Strong prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). In addition to disclosing financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, the Company discloses information regarding Adjusted EBITDA (“Adjusted EBITDA”), which differs from the commonly-used EBITDA (“EBITDA”). Adjusted EBITDA both adjusts net income (loss) to exclude income taxes, interest, and depreciation and amortization, and excludes discontinued operations, share-based compensation, impairment charges, equity method income (loss), fair value adjustments, severance, foreign currency transaction gains (losses), transactional gains and expenses, gains on insurance recoveries, certain tax credits and other cash and non-cash charges and gains.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of performance defined in accordance with GAAP. However, Adjusted EBITDA is used internally in planning and evaluating the Company’s operating performance. Accordingly, management believes that disclosure of these metrics offers investors, bankers and other stakeholders an additional view of the Company’s operations that, when coupled with the GAAP results, provides a more complete understanding of the Company’s financial results.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or to net cash from operating activities as measures of operating results or liquidity. The Company’s calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies, and the measures exclude financial information that some may consider important in evaluating the Company’s performance.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as substitutes for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are: (i) they do not reflect the Company’s cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments, (ii) they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company’s working capital needs, (iii) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on the Company’s debt, (iv) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements, (v) they do not adjust for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in the Company’s statements of cash flows, (vi) they do not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters management considers not to be indicative of the Company’s ongoing operations, and (vii) other companies in the Company’s industry may calculate these measures differently than the Company does, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
Management believes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period by isolating the effects of some items that vary from period to period without any correlation to core operating performance or that vary widely among similar companies. These potential differences may be caused by variations in capital structures (affecting interest expense), tax positions (such as the impact on periods or companies of changes in effective tax rates or net operating losses) and the age and book depreciation of facilities and equipment (affecting relative depreciation expense). The Company also presents EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because (i) management believes these measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in the Company’s industry, (ii) management believes investors will find these measures useful in assessing the Company’s ability to service or incur indebtedness, and (iii) management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA internally as benchmarks to evaluate the Company’s operating performance or compare the Company’s performance to that of its competitors.
