Overview



Founded and headquartered in Orange County, California, our mission is to
deliver immersive entertainment and compelling lifestyle enhancements that make
our products the center of the connected home. We are driving the future of
televisions through our integrated platform of cutting-edge Smart TVs and
powerful operating system. We also offer a portfolio of innovative sound bars
that deliver consumers an elevated audio experience. Our platform gives content
providers more ways to distribute their content and advertisers more tools to
connect with the right audience.

We currently offer:

•a broad range of high-performance Smart TVs that encompass a variety of price points, technologies, features and screen sizes, each designed to address specific consumer preferences;

•a portfolio of innovative sound bars that deliver immersive audio experiences; and

•a proprietary Smart TV operating system, SmartCast, which enhances the functionality and monetization opportunities of our devices.

Financial and operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the corresponding period of last year included:



•Net revenue of $408.9 million, up 2%
•Platform+ net revenue of $110.8 million, up 69%
•Gross profit of $73.9 million, compared to $79.5 million
•Platform+ gross profit of $69.9 million, up 47%
•Net income of $2.3 million, compared to net loss of $14.0 million
•Adjusted EBITDA of $11.4 million, compared to $26.4 million
•SmartCast Active Accounts of 16.1 million, up 15%
•SmartCast Hours of 4.3 billion, up 22%
•Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) of $25.87, up 54%

Our Business Model



We generate revenue primarily from (1) selling our Smart TVs, sound bars and
remote controls and (2) monetizing our digital platform. Currently, the majority
of our total net revenue is generated from the sales of our devices, our
Platform+ business, including our advertising services, is growing at a rapid
pace. Given the growing number of use cases for Smart TVs, we expect to increase
our revenue from connected TV advertising, SVOD services and other monetizable
transactions made on our platform that extend beyond traditional entertainment
content.

Device

We offer a range of high-performance Smart TVs designed to address specific consumer preferences, as well as a portfolio of sound bars that deliver immersive audio experiences. We generate revenue from the shipment of these devices to retailers and distributors across the United States, as well as directly to consumers through our website, VIZIO.com.

Platform+



Platform+ is comprised of SmartCast, the digital platform that powers our Smart
TVs, enabling a fully-integrated entertainment solution, and our ACR technology
that collects and licenses viewing data.

Our award winning Smart TV operating system, SmartCast, delivers a vast amount of content and applications through an elegant and easy-to-use interface. SmartCast supports most leading streaming content apps such as Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV+, discovery+, Disney+, HBO Max, Hulu, Netflix, Paramount+, Peacock and YouTube TV, and hosts our ad-supported app, WatchFree+.



Our technology is able to identify the content displayed on the screen of our
Smart TVs, providing first-hand data, regardless of input source. We aggregate
this data to increase transparency and enhance targeting abilities for our
advertisers, while adhering to our strict consumer privacy policies. This
first-hand data allows us to monetize our own ad inventory and provides the
potential for a better user experience through more relevant advertisements. We
also license a portion of this data to advertising agencies, networks and ad
tech companies.
                                       18
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We monetize these capabilities through:

Advertising



•Video advertising: Ad inventory on services such as WatchFree+, and certain
third-party AVOD services. In exchange for distributing their content, we gain a
portion of the advertising inventory to sell ourselves, or in some cases we sell
all of the ad inventory and share a portion of the revenue with the content
providers

•Home screen: Ad placements on our SmartCast home screen by streaming services, studios and other consumer brands



•Partner marketing: Branding opportunities through our large, in-store presence
where our Smart TV cartons provide a highly-visible, physical space to showcase
our partners' content images and streaming service logos

Data licensing

•Inscape: Fees from measurement services, ad tech firms, ad agencies and networks to license data generated from our Inscape technology to measure viewership trends and advertising performance

Content distribution, transactions and promotion

•Branded buttons on remote controls: Partners who want to place a button for their service on our VIZIO remote controls so that consumers can have quick access to their service

•SVOD and vMVPD: Revenue shared by SVOD and vMVPD services on new user subscriptions activated or reactivated through our platform

•PVOD and TVOD: Revenue shared by PVOD and TVOD services for purchases initiated on our platform

Additional monetization opportunities

As the Smart TV evolves to take on a more prominent role in the connected home, we believe new monetization opportunities will develop. For example, we expect:

•A growing user base will lead to higher advertising revenue, especially as our user base increasingly includes audiences no longer reachable through linear TV

•The vast amount of data obtained through our platform will improve the effectiveness of advertisement, generating higher returns for advertisers and potentially increasing ad rates for us

•That data will be used to create more personalized content recommendations and drive higher user engagement



•That interactive ads and improved subscription billing can increase the number
of purchases made on our platform, including subscriptions, content rentals,
ecommerce, food delivery and other micro transactions, for which we will receive
a portion of the sales

Overview of our supply chain

We design our products in-house in California and we work closely with our
Original Design Manufacturers (ODMs), panel suppliers and chipset suppliers for
product design and technical specifications. Through this collaborative process,
we leverage the manufacturing scale of these partners, as well as their research
and development functions in the development of new product introductions. Our
ODM partners provide shipping and logistics support to move finished products
from their manufacturing facilities to the United States. The title of the
finished goods transfers from the ODM to us once we ship the product to a
retailer. We believe that our asset-light business model fosters efficient
operations with a low fixed-cost structure; coupled with careful management of
marketing, selling, general and administrative expenses, which has enabled us to
manage our working capital effectively and improve operating leverage. We
believe that through these efficiencies, we are able to offer consumers high
quality products at affordable prices. While the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in
supply chain disruptions and delayed product availability, by the end of 2021
our inventory levels returned to more normal levels. For more information about
the current effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the conflict in Ukraine and other
macroeconomic and geopolitical events on our supply chain, see the section
titled "Macroeconomic and Geopolitical Conditions" below.

Our sales and marketing approach

Retailers



We have maintained long-standing relationships with many leading retailers,
including Amazon, Best Buy, Costco, Sam's Club, Target and Walmart. Our sales
and marketing team works closely with these retailers to develop marketing and
promotion plans, manage inventory, deploy go-to-market strategies, educate their
salesforce and optimize the effectiveness of retail space for our devices.
                                       19
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Consumers



Our marketing team is focused on building our brand reputation and awareness to
drive consumer demand for our products. Our marketing approach is to emphasize
value, which is to deliver quality products with leading technology at
affordable prices, which enhance the entertainment experience. Our products and
value proposition have earned numerous awards and accolades from popular press.

Advertisers



We offer an attractive value proposition for advertisers to reach consumers who
are increasingly "cutting the cord." As we continue to build out our Platform+
advertising sales force, we intend to increase our presence and recognition
among advertising agencies, advertisers and content providers through the
television advertising ecosystem. In addition, we expect our audience size and
data capabilities to continue to resonate with ad buyers looking to increase
their connected TV ad spend.

Key Business Metrics



We review a number of operational and financial metrics, including the following
key metrics, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends
affecting our business, formulate business plans and make strategic decisions.

Smart TV Shipments



We define Smart TV Shipments as the number of Smart TV units shipped to
retailers or direct to consumers in a given period. Smart TV Shipments drive the
majority of our net revenue currently and provide the foundation for increased
adoption of our SmartCast operating system and the growth of our Platform+ net
revenue. The growth rate between Smart TV units shipped and Device net revenue
is not directly correlated because our Device net revenue can be impacted by
other variables, such as the series and sizes of Smart TVs sold during the
period, the introduction of new products as well as the number of sound bars
shipped. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, our Smart TV Shipments
totaled 1.1 million, a 5% year-over-year increase. We expect Smart TV Shipments
will fluctuate from period to period in the future as consumer demand
fluctuates.

SmartCast Active Accounts



We define SmartCast Active Accounts as the number of VIZIO Smart TVs where a
user has activated the SmartCast operating system through an internet connection
at least once in the past 30 days. We believe that the number of SmartCast
Active Accounts is an important metric to measure the size of our engaged user
base, the attractiveness and usability of our operating system, and subsequent
monetization opportunities to increase our Platform+ net revenue. At June 30,
2022, SmartCast Active Accounts were 16.1 million, representing a 15%
year-over-year increase. This metric excludes approximately 3.9 million
televisions connected to the internet through our legacy operating system, VIZIO
V.I.A. Plus, which we no longer ship. As we continue to improve and market our
SmartCast service combined with the secular shift to OTT, we expect the number
of SmartCast Active Accounts will grow as our platform becomes the place where
consumers access all of the features of their Smart TV rather than connecting a
cable box, satellite or other external device, though we expect the rate of
growth will decline over time.

Total VIZIO Hours



We define Total VIZIO Hours as the aggregate amount of time users spend
utilizing our Smart TVs in any capacity. We believe this usage metric is
critical to understanding our total potential monetization opportunities. Total
VIZIO Hours for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, were 8.2 billion, representing
an 14% year-over-year increase.

SmartCast Hours



We define SmartCast Hours as the aggregate amount of time viewers engage with
our SmartCast platform to stream content or access other applications. This
metric reflects the size of the audience engaged with our operating system as
well as indicates the growth and awareness of our platform. It is also a measure
of the success of our offerings in addressing increased user demand for OTT
streaming. Greater user engagement translates into increased revenue
opportunities as we earn a significant portion of our Platform+ net revenue
through advertising, which is influenced by the amount of time users spend on
our platform. SmartCast Hours for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were 4.3
billion, representing a 22% year-over-year increase.

SmartCast ARPU



We define SmartCast ARPU as total Platform+ net revenue, less revenue
attributable to legacy VIZIO V.I.A. Plus units, during the preceding four
quarters divided by the average of (i) the number of SmartCast Active Accounts
at the end of the current period; and (ii) the number of SmartCast Active
Accounts at the end of the corresponding prior year period. SmartCast ARPU
indicates the level at which we are monetizing our SmartCast Active Account user
base. Growth in SmartCast ARPU is driven
                                       20
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

significantly by our ability to add users to our platform and our ability to
monetize those users. SmartCast ARPU at June 30, 2022 was $25.87, representing a
54% year-over-year increase.

The following table presents a comparison of these key operational metrics for
the three months ended June 30, 2022 to the three months ended June 30, 2021:

                                        Three Months Ended

SmartCast ARPU                $       25.87                $ 16.76


Non-GAAP Financial Measure

In addition to our results determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) we believe that Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, is useful in evaluating our business.

Adjusted EBITDA



We define Adjusted EBITDA as total net income (loss) before interest income,
net, other expense, net, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, depreciation
and amortization and share-based compensation. We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be
an important metric to assess our operating performance and help us to manage
our working capital needs. Utilizing Adjusted EBITDA, we can identify and
evaluate trends in our business as well as provide investors with consistency
and comparability to facilitate period-to-period comparisons of our business. We
expect Adjusted EBITDA to fluctuate in absolute dollars and as a percentage of
net revenue in the near term and increase in the long term as we scale our
business and realize greater operating leverage.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, our net income increased to $2.3 from
a net loss of $14.0 for the same period in the prior year, and Adjusted EBITDA
decreased $15.0 million, or 57%, year-over-year. For the six months ended June,
30, 2022, net loss decreased 19% to $8.7 million compared to a net loss of $10.7
million for the same period in the prior year, and Adjusted EBITDA decreased
$15.9 million or 76%, year-over-year.

We use Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with net income (loss) as part of our
overall assessment of our operating performance and the management of our
working capital needs. Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may differ from the
definition used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited.
In addition, other companies may not publish Adjusted EBITDA or similar metrics.
Furthermore, Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations in that it does not include
the impact of certain expenses that are reflected in our condensed consolidated
statement of operations that are necessary to run our business. Thus, Adjusted
EBITDA should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or in
isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, including net income
(loss). We compensate for these limitations by providing a reconciliation of
Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss). We encourage investors and others to
review our financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single
financial measure and to view Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with net income
(loss).

Macroeconomic and Geopolitical Conditions



We are subject to risks and uncertainties arising from macroeconomic and
geopolitical conditions, including, but not limited to, effects of the COVID-19
pandemic and the conflict in Ukraine, inflation, rising interest rates, foreign
currency fluctuations, and lower consumer spending. In order to manage our cost
structure in light of these conditions, we are seeking opportunities to reduce
the growth of our expenses. We have slowed hiring in the second quarter of 2022,
and we have reduced non-labor spend in areas such as travel and marketing. We
continuously monitor the direct and indirect impacts of these macroeconomic and
geopolitical events and trends on our business and financial results.

Impact on Device



During much of 2020 and early 2021, we experienced increased demand for our
products due to the combined impact of stay-at-home orders and fiscal stimulus.
As demand for televisions and home entertainment surged and supply chain and
logistical partners operated at limited capacity, we encountered higher costs,
reduced channel inventory levels at several retailers and delayed product
availability. While we replenished most of our channel inventory by early 2022,
macroeconomic effects arising from the COVID-19 pandemic and the conflict in
Ukraine (such as rising fuel prices, inflation, foreign currency fluctuations),
new COVID-19 variants and lockdown measures implemented in China in the first
half of 2022, and geopolitical events in Asia have reignited global supply chain
and logistics challenges and cost increases. If such conditions impact our
suppliers, contract manufacturers, logistics providers and distributors, they
could lead to increases in cost of materials, higher shipping and transportation
rates, which could adversely affect our Device gross margin if we are unable to
increase prices to offset costs due to price competition. To the extent we
increase prices, such increases may not successfully offset cost increases, may
adversely affect demand for our products, or may cause us to lose market share,
adversely affecting our results of operations. In addition to creating renewed
supply chain concerns, inflation, rising interest rates and related
macroeconomic conditions have adversely affected consumer demand for our Smart
TVs and sound bars, and a sustained economic downturn could further depress
demand for our products and adversely affect Smart TV Shipments and Device gross
margin.

Impact on Platform+

Inflationary pressure, recessionary fears and reduced consumer confidence
generally cause advertisers in a variety of industries to be cautious in their
spending and to either pause or slow their campaigns. If such macroeconomic
conditions cause advertisers to reduce or delay spending, the demand from
advertisers for our Platform+ offerings may decline, which could lead to a
decline in our Platform+ net revenue growth. In addition, as consumers
increasingly pursue out-of-home activities and stay-at-home policies are lifted,
growth in Total VIZIO Hours, SmartCast Hours and SmartCast Active Accounts has
normalized to pre-pandemic levels. These factors have had, and may continue to
adversely impact on our Platform+ net revenue.

The extent of the ongoing impact of macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions on
our business and on global economic activity is uncertain and may continue to
adversely affect our business, operations and financial results. Our past
results may not be indicative of our future performance. The risks related to
our business are further described in the section titled "Risk Factors" in Part
II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.


                                       22
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Factors Affecting Performance

Device

Ability to sell more devices

Selling more devices is integral to our strategy of growing SmartCast Active
Accounts, increasing engagement, and expanding advertising monetization
opportunities, all of which we believe will ultimately lead to higher SmartCast
ARPU. There are a variety of factors that drive the sales of our devices,
including our sales and marketing efforts, the quality of our products, new
product introductions, effective supply chain management and relationships with
retailers. For example:

•We have introduced several new products that have had a favorable impact on our
revenue and operating results, such as the introduction of our new line of Smart
TVs and sound bars introduced in 2022. We expect that introducing products that
both stimulate demand and resonate with consumers will drive our sales growth
and expand our market share.

•We actively diversify our supply chain in order to mitigate potential risks.



•With respect to our relationships with retailers, our ability to anticipate and
quickly respond to consumer preferences has influenced retailers' willingness to
market and promote our products over those of our competitors. Historically, we
have cultivated strong relationships with our retailers, including Amazon, Best
Buy, Costco, Sam's Club, Target and Walmart.

Seasonality



Historically, we have experienced the highest levels of our sales in the fourth
quarter of the calendar year, coinciding with the holiday shopping season in the
United States. Given the significant seasonality of our revenue, timely and
effective product introductions and forecasting are critical to our operations,
and fourth quarter sales are critical to our annual results.

Product mix

Our Device business encompasses a variety of Smart TVs and sound bars with different price points and features. Changes to our product mix may cause fluctuations in our gross profit as they reflect a range of margin profiles.

Platform+

Ability to grow SmartCast Active Accounts



The more SmartCast Active Accounts we have, the more attractive our SmartCast
platform will be to third-party content providers and advertisers looking to
reach this audience. Our ability to monetize our platform may suffer if we fail
to secure popular apps and related content on SmartCast, which may lead users to
purchase a television from a competitor.

Ability to increase engagement and monetize SmartCast Active Accounts



Our business is dependent on our continued ability to grow and sustain user
engagement on SmartCast and, specifically, WatchFree+. User engagement on our
platform is an essential revenue driver since it directly influences our
attractiveness to advertisers, the largest near-term monetization opportunity.
Therefore, our ability to attract compelling content viewers want to consume on
WatchFree+ is critical to our monetization. Increasing engagement on our
platform can result in greater attractiveness to advertisers and other
monetization opportunities. The more time consumers spend on our platform, the
more data we can collect, enabling us to create a more personalized and dynamic
experience for users, while also allowing us to provide more targeted reach for
advertisers.

Demand for a more connected home



The proliferation of the connected home ecosystem will power the long-term
growth of our business. A Smart TV-centered connected home will drive user
engagement and expand our monetization opportunities into new domains. In
addition to boosting demand for our hardware products, a connected home will
require new interactive features that we are well-positioned to help deliver,
such as personal communications, commerce, gaming, fitness and wellness, and
dynamic entertainment experiences. Coupled with our passion for innovation and
technical expertise, we can offer differentiated experiences for consumers. As
we believe our Smart TVs will evolve to have a more pivotal role in the
connected home, we must continue to find ways to monetize the use cases enabled
on our platform.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Other

Ability to continue to invest



The future performance of our business will be affected by our investments in
both our Device and Platform+ businesses. We intend to continue to invest in the
capabilities of our products and services to deliver better value for our
consumers and partners and address new market opportunities.

Competition



We believe the principal competitive factors impacting the market for our
devices are brand, price, features, quality, design, consumer service,
time-to-market and availability. We believe that we compete favorably in these
areas. The consumer electronics market in which we operate is highly competitive
and includes large, well-established companies. Many of our competitors have
greater financial, distribution, marketing and other resources, longer operating
histories, better brand recognition and greater economies of scale.

Our Platform+ business competes both to be the entertainment hub of consumers'
homes and to attract advertising spend. We expect advertising spend to continue
to shift from linear TV to connected TV, and as such we expect new competition
to continue to intensify for viewership and for advertising spend. In this
respect, we compete against other television brands with Smart TV offerings,
connected devices and traditional cable operators seeking to integrate streaming
media into their existing offerings. We also compete with OTT streaming
services, as such services are able to monetize across a variety of devices and
consumers may engage with their content through devices other than our Smart
TVs. We compete with these devices and services in part on the basis of user
experience and content availability, including the availability of free content.
In addition, we compete to attract advertising spending on the basis of the size
of our audience and our ability to effectively target advertising.

Components of Our Results of Operations and Financial Condition

Net revenue

Device net revenue



We generate Device net revenue primarily through sales of our Smart TVs and
sound bars to retailers in the United States, including wholesale clubs, as well
as directly to consumers through our website. We recognize Device revenue when
title of the goods is transferred to retailers or distributors, or upon the date
the goods are delivered to consumers from a sale through our website. Our
reported revenue is net of reserves for price protection, rebates, sales returns
and other retailer allowances including some cooperative advertising
arrangements. The prices charged for our Smart TVs and other devices are
determined through negotiation with our retailers and are fixed or determinable
upon shipment.

Platform+ net revenue

We generate Platform+ net revenue through sales of advertising and related
services, data licensing, sales of branded buttons on our remote controls and
content distribution. Our digital ad inventory consists of inventory on
WatchFree+ and our home screen along with ad inventory we obtain through
agreements with content providers and other third-party application agreements.
We also re-sell video inventory that we purchase from content providers and
directly sell third-party inventory on a revenue share.

Cost of goods sold

Device cost of goods sold



Device cost of goods sold primarily represents the prices for finished goods
that we negotiate and pay to manufacturers and logistics providers for Smart TVs
and other devices. The costs for finished goods paid to manufacturers include
raw materials, manufacturing, overhead and labor costs, third-party logistics
costs, shipping costs, customs and duties, license fees and royalties paid to
third parties, recycling fees, insurance and other costs. Device cost of goods
sold will vary with volume and is based on the cost of underlying product
components and negotiated prices with the manufacturers. Shipping costs
fluctuate with volume as well as with the method of shipping chosen in order to
meet consumer demand, inflation and geopolitical events. We expect these costs
to continue to fluctuate during the second half of 2022.

Device cost of goods sold may be partially offset by payments we receive under
certain manufacturer reimbursement and incentive arrangements in accordance with
product supply agreements. These arrangements can be conditioned on the purchase
of devices but are typically not a part of minimum purchase commitments with
manufacturers. Accordingly, we treat these arrangements and related payments as
reductions to the prices we pay to manufacturers for devices.
                                       24
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Platform+ cost of goods sold



Platform+ cost of goods sold includes advertising inventory costs, including
revenue share as well as targeting and measurement services, third-party cloud
services, allocated engineering costs and other technology expenses, content or
programming licensing fees, and amortization of internally developed technology.

Gross profit



We bifurcate gross profit by business activity due to the differing margin
profiles of the Device and Platform+ businesses. In addition, we manage each
business, from a financial reporting perspective separately down to the gross
profit level. Though both our Device and Platform+ businesses are meaningful
contributors to gross profit today, we expect Platform+ to exhibit significantly
higher growth, and combined with its higher margins, drive the majority of gross
profit growth in the future.

Device gross profit



We define Device gross profit as Device net revenue less Device cost of goods
sold, and Device gross margin is Device gross profit expressed as a percentage
of Device net revenue. Device gross profit is directly influenced by consumer
demand, device offerings, and our ability to maintain a cost-efficient supply
chain. Our Device gross profit may fluctuate from period to period as Device net
revenue fluctuates and has been and will continue to be influenced by several
factors including supplier prices, retailer margin and Device mix. We expect
Device gross margin to fluctuate over time based on our ability to manage
pricing through our supply chain and retailer network.

Platform+ gross profit



Our Platform+ gross profit represents Platform+ net revenue less Platform+ cost
of goods sold, and Platform+ gross margin is Platform+ gross profit expressed as
a percentage of Platform+ net revenue. As we continue to grow and scale our
business, we expect Platform+ gross profit to increase over the long term. Our
Platform+ gross profit has been and will continue to be affected by costs and
availability of advertising inventory, costs of data services associated with
delivering advertising campaigns, costs to acquire content from content
providers and the timing of our third-party cloud services and other technology
expenses, and we expect our Platform+ gross margins to fluctuate from period to
period depending on the factors discussed above.

Operating expenses

We classify our operating expenses into four categories:

Selling, general and administrative



Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel
costs for employees, including salaries, bonuses, benefits and share-based
compensation, as well as consulting expenses, fees for professional services,
facilities and information technology. We expect selling, general and
administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars as our business grows.
We have and expect to continue to incur additional expenses as a result of costs
associated with being a public company, including expenses related to compliance
with the rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing standards of the New
York Stock Exchange, and increased expenses for insurance, investor relations,
and fees for professional services. We expect selling, general and
administrative expenses to fluctuate as a percentage of net revenue from period
to period in the near term as we continue to invest in growing our business, but
decline over the long term as we achieve greater scale over time.

Marketing



Marketing expenses consist primarily of advertising and marketing promotions of
our brand and products, including media advertisement costs, merchandising and
display costs, trade show and event costs, and sponsorship costs. We expect our
marketing expense to increase in absolute dollars as we continue to promote our
products and brand, particularly in the fourth quarter when we have historically
experienced higher marketing expenses in connection with seasonally higher
Device net revenue. We expect marketing expenses to fluctuate as a percentage of
net revenue from period to period.

Research and development



Research and development expenses consist primarily of employee-related costs,
including salaries and bonuses, share-based compensation expense, and employee
benefits costs, third-party contractor costs, and related allocated overhead
costs. In certain cases, costs are incurred to purchase materials and equipment
for future use in research and development efforts. These costs are capitalized
and expensed. We expect research and development expenses to continue to
increase as we expand our Platform+ service.

Depreciation and amortization



Depreciation expenses cover declines in value of fixed assets such as buildings,
leasehold improvements, and equipment. Amortization expenses primarily relate to
declines in the value of our capitalized software costs.
                                       25
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Non-operating (expense) income, net



Non-operating (expense) income, net consists of interest income, net including
interest earned on our financial institution deposits and interest expense on
our credit facility and other expense, net relating to activities not related to
recurring operations.

Provision for (benefit from) income taxes



Our provision for (benefit from) income taxes consists of income taxes in the
United States and related state jurisdictions in which we do business. Our
effective tax rate will generally approximate the U.S. statutory income tax rate
plus the apportionment of state income taxes based on the portion of taxable
income allocable to each state. We regularly assess the likelihood of adverse
outcomes resulting from the examination of our tax returns by the U.S. Internal
Revenue Service and other tax authorities to determine the adequacy of our
income tax reserves and expense.

Should actual events or results differ from our current expectations, charges or credits to our provision for (benefit from) income taxes may become necessary.

Device net revenue

Device net revenue decreased $37.5 million, or 11%, for the three months ended
June 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease in Device net
revenue was primarily due to an 8% decrease in total Device average unit price
and a 4% decrease in total device units shipped. The decline in average unit
price was primarily driven by more competitive pricing for Smart TVs. The
decline in total device shipments was driven by lower sound bar shipments
partially offset by higher Smart TV Shipments.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Device net revenue decreased $108.2 million, or 14%, for the six months ended
June 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease in Device net
revenue was primarily due to an 8% decrease in our total device average unit
price and a 6% decrease in total device units shipped. The decline in average
unit price was primarily driven by more competitive pricing for Smart TVs
partially offset by higher average unit price for sound bars. Shipments of both
Smart TVs and sound bars decreased compared to the same period in 2021.

Platform+ net revenue



Platform+ net revenue increased $45.3 million, or 69% for the three months ended
June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in Platform+
net revenue was primarily due to an increase in advertising revenue of $34.4
million, or 71%, from $47.4 million, and an increase in non-advertising revenue
of $11.9 million, or 65% from $18.2 million primarily due to higher data
licensing revenue. The increase in advertising revenue was driven in part by an
increase in SmartCast Active Accounts.

Platform+ net revenue increased $95.7 million, or 81% for the six months ended
June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in Platform+
net revenue was primarily due to an increase in advertising revenue of $74.1
million, or 90% from $82.5 million, and an increase in non-advertising revenue
of $21.6 million, or 61% from $35.2 million primarily due to higher data
licensing revenue. The increase in advertising revenue was driven in part by an
increase in SmartCast Active Accounts.

Device cost of goods sold, Device gross profit, and Device gross margin



Device cost of goods sold decreased $9.5 million, or 3%, for the three months
ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021, primarily due to
fewer sound bars shipments. Device gross margin decreased to 1.3% for the three
months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to 9.6% in the same period in 2021, due
to decreases in gross margins for both Smart TVs and sound bars.

Device cost of goods sold decreased $39.8 million, or 6%, for the six months
ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021, due to fewer Smart

in Platform+ cost of goods sold was primarily due to increases in advertising
inventory costs and third-party cloud services. Platform+ gross margin decreased

Selling, general and administrative



Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $20.1 million, or 29% for
the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021.
The decrease is primarily due to a $28.1 million decrease in share-based
compensation expense. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in
personnel costs due to growth in our Platform+ business.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $15.8 million, or 12% for
the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021. The
decrease in selling, general and administrative expense was primarily due to
lower share based compensation expense of $38.2 million, offset by increases in
personnel costs as we grow our Platform+ business.

Marketing



Marketing expenses decreased $0.8 million, or 8% for the three months ended June
30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021, and increased $8.1 million, or
56% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in
2021, primarily due to higher merchandising and media costs.

Research and development

Research and development expenses increased $2.1 million, or 29% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021, and increased $1.5 million, or 9% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021, due to higher engineering personnel costs.

Depreciation and amortization



Depreciation and amortization expense increased $0.2 million, or 29% for the
three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021, and
increased $0.5 million, or 38% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as
compared to the same period in 2021 due to additional furniture, fixtures and
equipment to accommodate the growth in our workforce.

We recorded a tax provision of $1.0 million, resulting in an effective tax rate
of 29%, and $5.2 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of (60)%, for the
three months ended June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, respectively. We recorded a
tax benefit of $0.9 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 10%, and a
tax provision of $15.6 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 316%, for
the six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively. For the
three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the effective tax rate differs from
the statutory tax rate of 21% primarily due to the approximately $0.3 million
and $3.4 million, respectively, in permanent book-to-tax difference for the
share-based compensation expense deduction limited on certain executive officers
as a publicly held corporation. The tax provision for the six months ended
June 30, 2022 includes a net income tax benefit of $2.3 million for discrete
items primarily due to excess tax benefits relating to stock-based compensation.

Backlog



We do not believe that our backlog of orders is meaningful as of any particular
date or indicative of future sales, as our retailers can change or cancel orders
with little or no penalty and limited advance notice prior to shipment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources



To date, our primary cash needs have been for working capital purposes and to a
lesser extent, capital expenditures, acquisitions and cash dividends. We have
historically funded our business through cash flows generated from operations,
the issuance of common stock and our revolving credit facility, as described
below. We have grown rapidly over the past two years. As we continue to grow our
business and invest in the development of our Platform+ business, we may need
higher levels of working capital.

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of
$335.8 million and $331.6 million, respectively. We believe our existing cash
and cash equivalents and cash from operations will be sufficient to meet our
projected operating requirements for at least the next 12 months from the date
of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our future capital requirements may vary
materially from our current expectations and will depend on many factors,
including the growth of our business, the timing and extent of spending on
various business initiatives, including investment in our Platform+ offerings,
the timing of new product introductions, market acceptance of our products and
overall macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions, including the effects of the
impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. To the extent that current and anticipated
future sources of liquidity are insufficient to fund our future business
activities and requirements, we may be required to seek additional equity or
debt financing. In the event additional financing is required from outside
sources, we may not be able to obtain such financing on terms acceptable to us
or at all. To the extent that we issue equity or convertible debt securities in
the future, there will be further dilution to our investors. Further, any debt
financing obtained by us in the future could involve restrictive covenants
relating to our capital raising activities and other financial and operational
matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital
and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions.

We are party to a credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A., which currently
provides for a revolving credit line of up to $50.0 million. Any indebtedness
under this credit agreement is collateralized by substantially all of our assets
and bears interest at a variable rate based either on LIBOR, the federal funds
rate or the prime rate. The credit agreement contains customary affirmative and
negative covenants and matures in April 2024. For the three and six months ended
June 30, 2022, there were no borrowings from or amounts outstanding under this
credit facility and we were in compliance with all debt covenants.

Cash flows from operating activities



Cash flows from operating activities consist of net income (loss) adjusted for
certain non-cash items, including depreciation and amortization, share-based
compensation expense, change in allowance for doubtful accounts, and other
non-cash related items as well as the effect of changes in working capital and
other activities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash provided by operating
activities was $19.3 million, consisting of a net loss of $8.7 million adjusted
for non-cash expenses of $28.2 million. Changes in operating assets and
liabilities represented a $0.2 million use of cash, primarily driven by changes
in working capital, including decreases in accounts receivable offset by
increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, net cash provided by operating
activities was $51.0 million, consisting of net loss of $10.7 million adjusted
for non-cash expenses of $63.8 million. Changes in operating assets and
liabilities represented a $2.2 million use of cash, primarily driven by changes
in working capital, including decrease in accounts receivable offset by an
increase in other current assets, decreases in accounts payable due to related
parties, accounts payable and accrued expenses. For the six months ended June
30, 2020, net cash used in operating activities was $8.3 million, consisting of
net income of $26.6 million adjusted for non-cash expenses of $4.0 million.
Changes in operating assets and liabilities represented a $38.9 million use of
cash, primarily driven by changes in working capital, including a decrease in
accounts payable and accounts payable due to related parties partially offset by
a decrease in accounts receivable.

Cash flows from investing activities



For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, our net cash used in
investing activities was $11.6 million and $3.0 million, respectively, and was
primarily due to the purchase of property and equipment to support our increased
employee headcount and increased investments into internally developed software
to support the overall growth in our business.

We expect that we will make capital expenditures and investments in the future,
primarily on leasehold improvements and internally developed software, potential
build-out of our corporate offices, as well as additional IT infrastructure, all
of which will be done to support our future growth.

Cash flows from financing activities



Our net cash used in financing activities was $3.5 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2022, and is primarily related to cash used to pay withholding
taxes on behalf of employees offset by proceeds received from the exercise of
employee stock options.

Our net cash provided by financing activities was $110.7 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2021 and is due to the net proceeds of approximately
$145.4 million from our IPO and $1.3 million from the exercise of stock options,
offset by cash payments of $35.4 million for tax payments related to employee
stock based awards withheld upon vesting and of $0.6 million for accumulated
dividends on our Series A convertible preferred stock.

Contractual Obligations

Royalties



We are engaged in, and in certain cases have settled, various claims and suits
alleging the infringement of patents related to certain television technology
that were initiated by television manufacturers and other nonmanufacturers. In
connection with the disposition of some of these claims and suits, we entered
into, or may enter into, license arrangements, which may include
                                       32
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

royalty payments to be made for historical and/or prospective sales of our products. Certain of these settlements have included cross-licenses, covenants not to sue, and litigation holds.



In connection with these existing license agreements as well as existing or
potential settlement arrangements, we recorded an aggregate accrual of $42.4
million for all historical product sales as of June 30, 2022. To the extent that
we are indemnified under product supply agreements with manufacturers, we have
offset intellectual property expenses and recorded amounts as other receivable
balances included in other current assets. Historically, we have been
contractually indemnified and reimbursed by our manufacturers for most
intellectual property royalty obligations and commitments. We will make future
payments for the licensed technologies with funding received from the
manufacturers, either through direct reimbursement from the manufacturers or
payment of the net purchase price, as these royalty payments become due. In
certain circumstances, we have the contractual ability to renegotiate the annual
license fee in future years if certain unit sales volumes are not met in a given
year. As of June 30, 2022, we expect our future payments to total $21.8 million,
which amount we expect to pay over a period of one to five years.

Operating Lease Agreements



We have various non-cancelable operating leases for our corporate and satellite
offices primarily in the United States. These leases expire at various times
through 2027 and have total annual payments of less than $4.0 million per year.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements



We do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or liabilities,
guarantee contracts, retained or contingent interests in transferred assets, or
any obligation arising out of a material variable interest in an unconsolidated
entity. We do not have any majority-owned subsidiaries that are not included in
our condensed consolidated financial statements. Additionally, we do not have an
interest in, or relationships with, any special-purpose entities.

Critical Accounting Policies



We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation
of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to
make estimates, assumptions and judgments that can significantly impact the
amounts we report as assets, liabilities, net sales, costs and expenses and the
related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and other
assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Our actual
results could differ significantly from these estimates under different
assumptions and conditions. We believe that the accounting policies discussed
below are critical to understanding our historical and future performance as
these policies involve a greater degree of judgment and complexity.

The Company's significant accounting policies are discussed in "Index to the
Consolidated Financial Statements-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in
our Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to these
policies in 2022.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements



There have been no further developments to recently issued accounting standards,
including the expected dates of adoption and estimated effects on our condensed
consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures, from those disclosed
in the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report
on Form 10-K.
