NEW YORK, Feb. 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc. (NYSE: MSO) today announced its results for the fourth quarter and for the year, showing significant gains in revenue, operating income and adjusted EBITDA as the company enters a new phase of growth.
President and Chief Executive Officer Susan Lyne said: "The final quarter of 2006 caps what has been a year of robust and steady growth for our company. With 36 percent growth in revenue, driven by increases across all business segments, our 2006 results came in ahead of our guidance even with additional investment in key initiatives like Blueprint and our marthastewart.com website.
"We are on track to deliver another strong performance in 2007. This is an important year for us as we continue executing on our strategy to diversify our revenue streams and broaden our channels of distribution. In the coming months, we will be launching many of the new Merchandising initiatives announced in 2006, including our Martha Stewart Collection of home products at Macy's and on macys.com in late summer; our Martha Stewart Crafts line at Michaels' more than 900 arts & crafts stores in May; and our Martha Stewart Colors paint program with Lowe's beginning in March. We are also introducing our new website - offering a rich multimedia experience, with enhanced search and guided navigation to expose the most relevant content from our site and the web; our digital offerings will continue to evolve throughout 2007 with features that allow for greater personalization as well as social networking and community.
"We head into 2007 with tremendous confidence in our strategic direction, creative vitality, and ability to execute on plan. We have moved from a period of recovery to one of expansive growth, and remain focused on investing and delivering for our shareholders."
Fourth Quarter 2006 Summary
Revenues rose 15% to $97.0 million, compared to $84.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2005, driven by broad-based growth across all business segments. The fourth-quarter results benefited from an increase in high- margin advertising revenue across Publishing and Internet along with the contractual minimum royalty guarantees from our program with Kmart.
Operating income for the fourth quarter improved to $14.6 million, compared to $2.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2005. Operating income for the quarter included a one-time $2.8 million gain related to the successful termination of our DVD agreement with Warner Home Video.
Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2006 was $21.5 million, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $11.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2005.
Earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.31 for the fourth quarter of 2006, compared to $0.06 for the fourth quarter of 2005.
Full-Year 2006 Summary
Full-year revenues rose 36% to $288.3 million, compared to $212.4 million in 2005. The increase was driven by strong ad sales growth in Publishing and Internet, a full year of The Martha Stewart Show and Martha Stewart Living Radio, as well as new Merchandising programs and an increase in contractual minimum royalty guarantees from our program with Kmart.
Full-year operating loss improved to $(2.8) million, compared to $(78.3) million for 2005. 2006 results benefited from the increase in high-margin advertising revenue and royalty payments. 2005 results included higher levels of non-cash compensation associated with the vesting of a portion of a warrant granted in connection with the production of the syndicated TV program.
Full-year adjusted EBITDA was $19.6 million, compared to a $(25.9) million adjusted EBITDA loss in 2005.
Full-year earnings per share loss from continuing operations was $(0.32), compared to a loss of $(1.48) for 2005. Excluding the legal settlement, full- year 2006 earnings per share from continuing operations would have been $0.01.
Fourth Quarter 2006 Results by Segment

Operating loss was $(2.2) million for the fourth quarter of 2006, compared to an operating loss of $(1.0) million in the fourth quarter of 2005.

Highlights
* Ad revenue rose 26 percent to $23.9 million, driven by growth across
all titles, especially our flagship magazine, Martha Stewart Living.
* Our magazines continue to enjoy rate base increases: Martha Stewart
Living is currently at 1,950,000, up from 1,900,000 at year-end 2006;
Everyday Food is currently at 875,000, up from 850,000 at year-end
2006; Body + Soul is currently at 450,000, up from 400,000 at year-end
2006; and Blueprint is currently at 350,000, up from 250,000 at year-
end 2006.
* We published Martha Stewart's Homekeeping Handbook (Clarkson Potter,
2006), which hit the bestseller lists immediately after its publication
in November. The Washington Post described it as "the ultimate
housekeeping resource."
* Everyday Food achieved profitability in 2006, a year ahead of schedule.
* The Publishing segment announced two important new hires. Michael
Boodro joined the company as the new editor of Martha Stewart Living,
our flagship magazine. Amy Wilkins is the new Senior Vice President,
Publisher for Blueprint and Martha Stewart Weddings.
Broadcasting
Revenues in the fourth quarter of 2006 were $13.4 million, up from $11.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2005. The current year period included a full quarter of revenue from the Martha Stewart Living Radio channel on SIRIUS Satellite Radio, which debuted near the end of the quarter in the prior year period.
Operating income was break even for the fourth quarter of 2006, compared to an operating loss of $(1.0) million in the fourth quarter of 2005. Fourth quarter results include a one-time $2.8-million gain related to the successful termination of our DVD agreement with Warner Home Video.
Adjusted EBITDA was $3.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2006, compared to an adjusted EBITDA loss of $(0.1) million in the prior year's fourth quarter.
Highlights
* We sold out our ad inventory for the second season of The Martha
Stewart Show at above-market increases. The show has been renewed for a
third season in more than 85 percent of markets, an early endorsement
of the show that serves as a vibrant platform for all our business
segments.
* Ratings for The Martha Stewart Show have grown to 1.5 from 1.3 earlier
this season, and hit a season high 1.6 last week. In contrast to last
year, we have maintained our holiday-season spike in ratings through
the post-holiday season.
* We hired Bernie Young, the Emmy-winning executive producer of "The
Rosie O'Donnell Show," to be the co-executive producer of The Martha
Stewart Show.
* We kicked off the third season of our profitable Everyday Food TV
series with strong ratings that continue to rise. The show airs on PBS
stations nationwide and is sold out for the entire season.
Merchandising
Revenues were $35.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2006, as compared to $28.1 million in the prior year's fourth quarter. The current quarter included the contractual minimum royalty guarantees from our program with Kmart. Actual sales for Martha Stewart Everyday products declined in the quarter, with weakness in the soft home category; we are refreshing that category in 2007.
Operating income was $29.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2006, compared to $23.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2005.
Adjusted EBITDA was $30.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2006, compared to $23.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2005.

Martha Stewart Collection at Macy's. The reception from Macy's buyers
has been positive and we are on track for a late summer launch.
* Our two existing Martha Stewart-created KB Home communities continue to
sell in a softened residential real estate market. Two additional
communities opened in Katy, TX, and Perris, CA, in early 2007; we
expect to break ground on four more in the coming months.
* We have completed our introductory Martha Stewart Crafts line of paper-
based crafting and storage products. The line, which features nearly
675 SKUs, will launch exclusively in more than 900 Michaels arts &
crafts stores in the United States and Canada in May, with independent
retailers to follow later in the year.
* We introduced the Katonah Collection, the fifth furniture line from
Martha Stewart Furniture with Bernhardt. The new collection features 45
SKUs of quality furniture for all areas of the home and is available to
customers at furniture retailers nationwide as of February 2007.
* We began offering our Martha Stewart Furniture with Bernhardt in
approximately 60 Macy's stores; sales have been robust.
* We hired Elizabeth Talerman to serve as Vice President, Senior Director
of Marketing for our Merchandising business segment.
Internet
Revenues rose 24% year-over-year to $5.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2006 from $4.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2005, driven by higher ad sales resulting from increases in CPMs and sell-through rates. In addition, results benefited from the recognition of a portion of a guaranteed payment associated with our Kodak agreement.
Operating income was $0.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2006, compared with operating income of $0.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2005. Increased revenue was offset by higher expenses as we invest in staff and technology in advance of the website's relaunch in first quarter 2007.
Adjusted EBITDA was $0.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2006, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $0.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2005.
Highlights
* Advertising revenue for 2006 was $8.2 million, up from $2.4 million in
2005.
* We completed the development of our new website and are in the final
testing phase prior to the relaunch in the first quarter of 2007.
* We hired Beth-Ann Eason as Senior Vice President for the Internet
division. In this newly created position, Ms. Eason oversees all
advertising, marketing and business operations for the Internet. She
previously served as Vice President, Category Development at Yahoo!
Inc.
Corporate Expenses
Corporate expenses, including depreciation and amortization and non-cash equity compensation, were $(13.0) million, compared to $(18.6) million in the prior year's quarter, which included higher levels of non-cash compensation related to certain warrants granted in connection with the airing of "The Apprentice: Martha Stewart." Excluding depreciation and amortization and non- cash equity compensation, corporate expenses decreased to $(10.6) million from $(11.6) million in the prior year period.
Trends and Outlook
Howard Hochhauser, Chief Financial Officer, commented: "We are encouraged by the considerable improvement in our business in 2006 and look forward to delivering increased value to our shareholders in 2007. We expect to generate meaningful free cash flow and positive net income in 2007 while continuing to invest in initiatives such as Blueprint magazine and our website relaunch. These investments will allow us to diversify our revenue streams and increase returns.
"For the full-year 2007, we are expecting revenue in the range of $330 - $340 million, operating income in the range of $5.5 - $8.5 million and adjusted EBITDA in the range of $32 - $35 million, including an investment of $8 million in Blueprint magazine.
"For the first quarter of 2007, we are expecting revenue in the range of $62 - $66 million, operating loss in the range of $18 - $19 million and adjusted EBITDA loss in the range of $6 - $7 million, including an investment of $2.5 million in Blueprint magazine, and a loss in our Internet segment of $3.0 million as we support our infrastructure in advance of the launch."
Stock-Based Compensation
In accordance with a new accounting rule, FASB Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, stock-based compensation is no longer presented as a separate line on our income statement. The stock-based compensation is now presented in the same line as cash compensation paid to the same individuals. Stock-based compensation recognized in prior periods has been reclassified to conform to the presentation in the current period. In the fourth quarter, the charge related to stock-based compensation was $5.1 million as compared to $6.8 million in the prior year period.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to using net income to assess the organization's overall financial health, Company management uses net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and non-cash equity compensation ("adjusted EBITDA"), a non-GAAP financial measure, to evaluate the performance of our businesses on a real-time basis. Adjusted EBITDA is considered an important indicator of operational strength, is a direct component of the Company's annual compensation program, and is a significant factor in helping our management determine how to allocate resources and capital. Adjusted EBITDA is used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. Management considers adjusted EBITDA to be a critical measure of operational health because it captures all of the revenue and ongoing operating expenses of our businesses without the influence of (i) interest charges, which result from our capital structure, not our ongoing business efforts, (ii) taxes, which relate to the overall organizational financial return, not that of any one business, (iii) the capital expenditure costs associated with depreciation and amortization, which are a function of historical decisions on infrastructure and capacity, and (iv) the cost of non- cash equity compensation which, as a function of our stock price, can be highly variable, is not necessarily an indicator of current operating performance for any individual business unit, and is amortized over the appropriate period.
Adjusted EBITDA provides a means to directly evaluate the ability of our business operations to generate returns on a real-time basis. We provide disclosure of adjusted EBITDA because we believe it is useful for investors to have means to assess our performance as we do. While adjusted EBITDA is a customized non-GAAP measure, it also provides a means to analyze, value and compare our operating capabilities to those of companies with whom we compete, many of which have different compensation plans, depreciation and amortization costs, capital structures and tax burdens. But please note that our non-GAAP results may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even if similar terms are used to identify such measures.
A limitation of adjusted EBITDA is that it does not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues for our overall organization. Management evaluates the costs of such tangible and intangible assets through other financial measures such as capital expenditures. Management also evaluates the cost of capitalized tangible and intangible assets by analyzing returns provided on the capital dollars deployed. A further limitation of adjusted EBITDA is that it does not include stock compensation expense related to our workforce. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, net income or other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP.
