www.activisionblizzard.com<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n1<\/sup> Based on data.ai Intelligence\n<\/p>\n2<\/sup> These corporate websites and social media channels, and the contents thereof, are not incorporated by reference into this press release nor deemed filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.\n<\/p>\nA<\/sup> Net effect of accounting treatment from revenue deferrals on certain of our online-enabled products. Since certain of our games are hosted online or include significant online functionality that represents a separate performance obligation, we defer the transaction price allocable to the online functionality from the sale of these games and then recognize the attributable revenues over the relevant estimated service periods, which are generally less than a year. The related cost of revenues is deferred and recognized as an expense as the related revenues are recognized. Impact from changes in deferrals refers to the net effect from revenue deferrals accounting treatment for the purposes of revenues, along with, for the purposes of EPS, the related cost of revenues deferrals treatment and the related tax impacts. Internally, management excludes the impact of this change in deferred revenues and related cost of revenues when evaluating the company\u2019s operating performance, when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods, and when assessing the performance of its management team. Management believes this is appropriate because doing so enables an analysis of performance based on the timing of actual transactions with our customers. In addition, management believes excluding the change in deferred revenues and the related cost of revenues provides a much more timely indication of trends in our operating results.\n<\/p>\n\nIn the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company completed its annual assessment of the estimated service periods for players of our games. We have noted that players who purchase in-game content are playing certain of our titles, notably those in our Call of Duty and World of Warcraft offerings, for longer periods of time than in prior years as they engage with services we provide that are designed to enhance and extend gameplay. As such, we have concluded that the estimated service period for in-game revenues from such games has lengthened by approximately 3 months.\n<\/p>\n
\nBased on the carrying amount of deferred revenue and deferred cost of revenue as of September 30, 2022, the change resulted in a decrease in net revenues recognized of $103 million, a decrease in cost of revenues recognized of $9 million, and a decrease in earnings per diluted share of $0.10 during the three months ended December 31, 2022. Such amounts will now be recognized during the year ended December 31, 2023. The change in the estimated service period had no impact on net bookings, segment net revenues, or net cash provided by operating activities.\n<\/p>\n
B<\/sup>Net bookings is an operating metric that is defined as the net amount of products and services sold digitally or sold-in physically in the period, and includes license fees, merchandise, and publisher incentives, among others, and is equal to net revenues excluding the impact from deferrals.\n<\/p>\nC<\/sup>In-game net bookings primarily includes the net amount of downloadable content and microtransactions sold during the period, and is equal to in-game net revenues excluding the impact from deferrals.\n<\/p>\nD<\/sup>Monthly Active User (\u201cMAU\u201d) Definition: We monitor MAUs as a key measure of the overall size of our user base. MAUs are the number of individuals who accessed a particular game in a given month. We calculate average MAUs in a period by adding the total number of MAUs in each of the months in a given period and dividing that total by the number of months in the period. An individual who accesses two of our games would be counted as two users. In addition, due to technical limitations, for Activision and King, an individual who accesses the same game on two platforms or devices in the relevant period would be counted as two users. For Blizzard, an individual who accesses the same game on two platforms or devices in the relevant period would generally be counted as a single user. In certain instances, we rely on third parties to publish our games. In these instances, MAU data is based on information provided to us by those third parties, or, if final data is not available, reasonable estimates of MAUs for these third-party published games.\n<\/p>\nE <\/sup>Year-over-year growth on a constant currency basis is calculated by translating current quarter local currency amounts to U.S. dollars based on prior period exchange rates. These amounts are compared to the prior period to derive constant-currency year-over-year performance. We present constant currency information to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of currency rate fluctuations.\n<\/p>\n\n- \nTotal net bookings increased by 43% year-over-year for the fourth quarter of 2022. On a constant currency basis, total net bookings increased 49% year-over-year for the fourth quarter of 2022 as currency rate changes negatively impacted year-over-year growth in the quarter by 6 percentage points.\n<\/li>\n
- \nActivision segment net revenues grew by 60% year-over-year, Blizzard segment net revenues grew by 89%, and King segment net revenues grew by 6% for the fourth quarter of 2022. On a constant currency year-over-year basis, Activision segment net revenue grew 67%, Blizzard segment net revenue grew 97%, and King segment net revenue grew 11% for the fourth quarter of 2022, as currency rate changes negatively impacted Activision segment net revenue year-over-growth by 7 percentage points, Blizzard segment net revenue year-over-year growth by 8 percentage points, and King segment net revenue year-over-year growth by 5 percentage points.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
F<\/sup> Net cash is defined as cash and cash equivalents ($7.1B as of December 31, 2022) and short-term investments ($5.0B as of December 31, 2022) minus gross debt ($3.7B as of December 31, 2022).\n<\/p>\nNon-GAAP Financial Measures:<\/b> As a supplement to our financial measures presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (\u201cGAAP\u201d), Activision Blizzard presents certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or as more important than, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the items associated with the company\u2019s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP.\n<\/p>\n
\nActivision Blizzard provides net income (loss), earnings (loss) per share, and operating margin data and guidance both including (in accordance with GAAP) and excluding (non-GAAP) certain items. When relevant, the company also provides constant currency information to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of currency rate fluctuations. In addition, Activision Blizzard provides EBITDA (defined as GAAP net income (loss) before interest (income) expense, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization) and adjusted EBITDA (defined as non-GAAP operating margin (see non-GAAP financial measure below) before depreciation). The non-GAAP financial measures exclude the following items, as applicable in any given reporting period and our outlook:\n<\/p>\n
\n- \nexpenses related to share-based compensation, including liability awards accounted for under ASC 718;\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- \nthe amortization of intangibles from purchase price accounting;\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- \nfees and other expenses related to merger and acquisitions, including related debt financings, and refinancing of long-term debt, including penalties and the write off of unamortized discount and deferred financing costs;\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- \nrestructuring and related charges;\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- \nexpenses related to the wind down of our partnership with NetEase in China in regards to licenses covering the publication of several Blizzard titles which expired in January 2023;\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- \nother non-cash charges from reclassification of certain cumulative translation adjustments into earnings as required by GAAP;\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- \nthe income tax adjustments associated with any of the above items (tax impact on non-GAAP pre-tax income is calculated under the same accounting principles applied to the GAAP pre-tax income under ASC 740, which employs an annual effective tax rate method to the results); and\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- \nsignificant discrete tax-related items, including amounts related to changes in tax laws, amounts related to the potential or final resolution of tax positions, and other unusual or unique tax-related items and activities.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\nIn the future, Activision Blizzard may also consider whether other items should also be excluded in calculating the non-GAAP financial measures used by the company. Management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with additional useful information to measure Activision Blizzard\u2019s financial and operating performance. In particular, the measures facilitate comparison of operating performance between periods and help investors to better understand the operating results of Activision Blizzard by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the company\u2019s core business, operating results, or future outlook. Additionally, we consider quantitative and qualitative factors in assessing whether to adjust for the impact of items that may be significant or that could affect an understanding of our ongoing financial and business performance or trends. Internally, management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, along with others, in assessing the company\u2019s operating results, and measuring compliance with the requirements of the company\u2019s debt financing agreements, as well as in planning and forecasting.\n<\/p>\n
\nActivision Blizzard\u2019s non-GAAP financial measures are not based on a comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles, and the terms non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per share, non-GAAP operating margin, and non-GAAP or adjusted EBITDA do not have a standardized meaning. Therefore, other companies may use the same or similarly named measures, but exclude different items, which may not provide investors a comparable view of Activision Blizzard\u2019s performance in relation to other companies.\n<\/p>\n
\nManagement compensates for the limitations resulting from the exclusion of these items by considering the impact of the items separately and by considering Activision Blizzard\u2019s GAAP, as well as non-GAAP, results and outlook, and by presenting the most comparable GAAP measures directly ahead of non-GAAP measures, and by providing a reconciliation that indicates and describes the adjustments made.\n<\/p>\n
