SouthPeak Games Reports Solid Gains in Third Quarter 2009

Posted by Wade, 21 days ago May 15, 2009 12:49

SouthPeak Interactive Corporation (OTCBB: SOPK), one of the fastest growing videogame publishers, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended March 31, 2009.

For the three month period ended March 31, 2009, SouthPeak reported revenues of $13.5 million as compared to $2.2 million for the comparable quarter in 2008. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted ("Adjusted EBITDA"), was $825,000 as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $142,000 in the comparable quarter in 2008. The non-GAAP net income for the quarter was $566,000, compared to non-GAAP net income of $20,000 in the comparable quarter in 2008. GAAP net income for the quarter was $289,000, or a profit per diluted share of $.01 compared to GAAP net income of $20,000, or a profit per diluted share of $.00 in the comparable quarter in 2008. See Supplemental Information for further discussion of non-GAAP measures

The quarterly results reflect strong momentum across all platforms, driven in part by post-holiday consumer demand and by several new releases during the quarter, including Big Bang Mini and X-Blades.
