Glu Comments On Expectations Regarding Third Quarter 2012 Financial Results
Glu has provided a reconciliation of the most comparable GAAP financial measure to each of the historical non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release in the financial tables that accompany Glu’s earnings press release issued on August 2, 2012.
Cautions Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This news release contains forward-looking statements, including those regarding Glu’s preliminary revenue and Adjusted EBITDA expectations for the third quarter of 2012, our expectation that we will launch Contract Killer 2 and Death Dome in the next several weeks, which titles will be important to Q4 revenue performance, and our intent to manage the business to be Adjusted EBITDA break-even or better for Q4 2012. These forward-looking statements are subject to material risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Investors should consider important risk factors, which include: Glu’s final review of its preliminary third quarter results and quarter-end accounting procedures; the risk that consumer demand for smartphones, tablets and next-generation platforms does not grow as significantly as we anticipate or that we will be unable to capitalize on any such growth; the risk that we do not realize a sufficient return on our investment with respect to our efforts to develop freemium games for smartphones, tablets and next-generation platforms; the risk that we will not be able to maintain our good relationships with Apple and Google; the risk that our development expenses for games for smartphones are greater than we anticipate; the risk that our recently and newly launched games are less popular than anticipated; the risk that our newly released games will be of a quality less than desired by reviewers and consumers; the risk that the mobile games market, particularly with respect to freemium gaming, is smaller than anticipated; and other risks detailed under the caption "Risk Factors" in our Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 9, 2012 and our other SEC filings. You can locate these reports through our website at http://www.glu.com/investors. We are under no obligation, and expressly disclaim any obligation, to update or alter our forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
