Commentary
“Over
the last several months, we have begun executing against the robust gaming pipeline we previously outlined, which has established a strong
foundation for the second half of 2026,” said Snail CEO Hai Shi. “During the second quarter, we launched the ARK: Fantastic
Tames Season 1 Pack and brought Bellwright to Xbox and PlayStation, with the console launch providing an important contribution
during an otherwise measured quarter for new game releases. Shortly after the second quarter ended, we released three ARK DLC
expansion maps: Tides of Fortune, Genesis Part 1 Ascended, and Dragontopia. These launches, together with our broader slate
of planned ARK content, have established a strong foundation for the rest of the year. Additionally, we continue to invest in
our next generation of internally developed AAA titles, which we view as critical drivers of Snail’s long-term growth profile.
For The Stars and 9 Yin Sutra Immortal were showcased across select gaming events over the past several months, demonstrating
meaningful development progress and growing visibility for these titles as they move through the later stages of development.
“Operationally,
we have made significant progress across a new developing initiative that expands beyond traditional game development and publishing.
Just last week, we announced our attendance at the Ai4 2026 conference, where we unveiled the AI Ranch initiative and our new product
in development called Non-Human Player (NHP), an AI companion product for consumers designed to learn, adapt, and interact like a real
human teammate. NHP is designed to deliver a personalized gaming experience tailored to each user’s playstyle. We believe this
technology has the potential to address key challenges casual and hardcore gamers face while creating a personalized AI companion that
can help players enjoy and improve their gaming experience across multiple titles.
“The
outlook for the second half of 2026 remains strong as we continue to execute across multiple gaming pipelines and business opportunities.
With a strong slate of ARK content through 2027, meaningful progress across three upcoming AAA titles, and the introduction of new business
initiatives, we are well-positioned to support the transformation of Snail’s profile over the next several quarters.”
Second
Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights
Net
revenues were $19.7 million compared to $22.2 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to a $4.2 million
decrease in sales of ARK: Survival Ascended, a decrease of $1.8 million from ARK: Survival Evolved, a decrease of $0.4
million from ARK: Ultimate Mobile Edition, a decrease of $0.2 million from SaltyTV, and a decrease of $0.2 million from
other various titles, offset by an increase in revenues related to Bellwright of $1.5 million and $2.8 million change in deferred
revenues.
Total
units sold were 2.0 million units compared to 2.1 million units in the same period last year, primarily driven by lower sales of
ARK franchise titles of 0.2 million units, partially offset by an increase in sales of Bellwright of 0.1 million units.
Net
loss improved 81.6% to $3.0 million compared to a net loss of $16.6 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily
due to a reduction of $14.0 million in the income tax provision from the prior-year quarter and an improvement in gross profit, partially
offset by higher general and administrative and research and development expenses.
Bookings
were $21.8 million compared to $27.1 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales of ARK: Survival
Ascended and ARK: Survival Evolved, partially offset by bookings generated from Bellwright.
EBITDA
was $(3.0) million compared to $(2.4) million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to an improvement in net loss
of $13.5 million and a decrease in depreciation expense of $0.1 million, more than offset by a decrease in the provision of income taxes
of $14.0 million.
Six
Months 2026 Financial Highlights
Net
revenues increased 11.1% to $47.0 million compared to $42.3 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily attributed
to a $3.6 million increase in sales of Bellwright and a $5.3 million change in deferred revenues, partially offset by a decrease
in ARK: Survival Evolved revenue of $2.7 million and a decrease of $1.4 million attributable to lower sales of ARK: Survival
Ascended.
Total
units sold increased 13.8% to 4.2 million units compared to 3.7 million units in the same period last year. The increase was primarily
due to increased sales of ARK: Survival Ascended of 1.0 million units and an increase in Bellwright of 0.2 million units;
partially offset by a decrease in ARK: Survival Evolved sales of 0.7 million units.
Net
loss improved 95.1% to $(0.9) million compared to $(18.5) million in the same period last year. The improvement was primarily due
to the absence of the $12.4 million income tax provision recorded in the prior-year period, which resulted from the valuation allowance
recognized against the Company’s deferred tax assets, together with a $6.5 million improvement in gross profit.
Bookings
were $48.7 million compared to $49.4 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales of ARK: Survival
Evolved as the title continued to mature and consumer demand shifted toward ARK: Survival Ascended and its related downloadable
content, partially offset by increased sales of ARK: Survival Ascended and Bellwright, which benefited from promotional
pricing during the period.
EBITDA
improved 88.8% to $(0.6) million compared to $(5.8) million in the same period last year. The improvement was primarily due to an
improvement in net loss of $17.6 million, partially offset by a decrease in the provision for income taxes of $12.4 million.
As
of June 30, 2026, unrestricted cash was $13.3 million compared to $8.6 million as of December 31, 2025.
Use
of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In
addition to the financial results determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, Snail believes
Bookings and EBITDA, as non-GAAP measures, are useful in evaluating its operating performance. Bookings and EBITDA are non-GAAP financial
measures that are presented as supplemental disclosures and should not be construed as alternatives to net income (loss) or revenue as
indicators of operating performance, nor as alternatives to cash flow provided by operating activities as measures of liquidity, both
as determined in accordance with GAAP. Snail supplementally presents Bookings and EBITDA because they are key operating measures used
by management to assess financial performance. Bookings adjusts for the impact of deferrals and, Snail believes, provides a useful indicator
of sales in a given period. Management believes Bookings and EBITDA are useful to investors and analysts in highlighting trends in Snail’s
operating performance. At the same time, other measures can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding
capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which Snail operates, and capital investments.
Bookings
is defined as the net amount of products and services sold digitally or physically in the period. Bookings is equal to revenues, excluding
the impact from deferrals. Below is a reconciliation of total net revenue to Bookings, the closest GAAP financial measure.
