SRAX Reports Revenue Grew 53% Sequentially for Q2 2019


LOS ANGELES, Aug. 14, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- SRAX, Inc. (Nasdaq: SRAX), a digital marketing and consumer data management and distribution technology platform company, reported results for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

SRAX (PRNewsfoto/SRAX)

"We continue to build our data assets through increasing adoption of our verticals and BIGtoken," stated SRAX's CEO and Founder Christopher Miglino. "These proprietary platforms are positioned to generate long-term revenue and value. During the quarter, we made substantial technology advancements in the SRAX IR platform and BIGtoken. SRAX IR is a perfect example of the type of platform that we believe will deliver long term recurring revenue, while building one of the most valuable data sets in the financial markets. 

"BIGtoken is the leading edge of the new data economy. Our global and diverse BIGtoken subscriber base experienced viral growth in April and reached 15.9 million users as of this week.  During the third quarter, we began to monetize our BIGtoken users, as we engaged with brands and several marketing agencies. Now, we are focused on increasing scale within certain data segments in specific countries. In addition, our discussions with advertisers and agencies have uncovered new revenue opportunities that leverage our high-quality user data. Through building what we predict will be one of the most valuable opt-in data sets in the world, we are well positioned to generate long-term revenue and value for shareholders.

Financial Highlights for Second Quarter 2019 

Operating Highlights:

Conference Call:
Management will review the results on a conference call with a live question and answer session today, August 14, 2019, at 4:30 p.m. ET/1:30 p.m. PT.

Non-GAAP Measures:
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), we use the following non-GAAP financial measure:  Adjusted EBITDA. The presentation of these financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Investors are cautioned that there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as an analytical tool. In addition, these measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, limiting their usefulness for comparison purposes. We compensate for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our business, enable comparison of financial results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in operating our business. For more information on our non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures, please see the "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Results" table in this press release.
