Commentary
“We
exited 2025 with tailwinds that positioned Snail for stronger and more stable growth and results,” said Company CEO Hai Shi. “Momentum
from the ASA pipeline we announced in December, the launch of ARK Lost Colony DLC, and the subsequent Steam Winter Sale
event supported net revenue growth and a return to net income positive. Looking ahead, we aim to deliver year-over-year growth in Q2,
driven by several upcoming ARK content releases. We have a Fantastic Tames Season 1 Expansion Pack coming in May 2026, and ARK
Tides of Fortune to launch alongside the remake of Genesis Part 1 coming to ASA in June 2026 to provide a foundation
for the quarter to build on. Approximately $11 million from our deferred revenue backlog is expected to be recognized upon the release
of Genesis Part 1.
“Beyond
ARK, Snail Games continues to execute on its strategy to eventually become a fully integrated game developer and publisher. Our upcoming
AAA titles represent an important step toward building new franchises with the potential for multi-year to multi-decade game lifespans
that can complement the scale of ASE and ASA. As previously disclosed, these projects have entered their final phases of
development, and the eventual launch of these games position us to meaningfully diversify our revenue mix beyond ARK. With multiple gaming
events and planned updates throughout the year, we look forward to sharing additional information on For the Stars, Nine Yin
Sutra: Immortal, and Nine Yin Sutra: Wushu.
“The
next 12-18 months will serve as an inflection period for Snail Games as we work to advance our ARK pipeline and deliver on the investments
we have made across our broader pipeline. Over time, our ambition is for Snail Games to be recognized not only for ARK, but as a developer
and publisher of multiple renown IPs and titles. We remain focused on unlocking the value of our pipeline and delivering results.”
First
Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights
Net
revenues increased 35.7% to $27.3 million compared to $20.1 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due
to an increase of $4.2 million and $2.1 million in revenue related to ASA and Bellwright, respectively, and a $2.5 million
increase in deferred revenue recognized during the period, offset by a decrease in revenue from ARK Mobile and ASE of $1.6
million.
Total
units sold increased 42.6% to 2.2 million units compared to 1.5 million units in the same period last year, primarily driven by an
increase in sales of ARK franchise IPs of 0.5 million units and Bellwright of 0.2 million units.
Net
income increased 210% to $2.1 million compared to a net loss of $1.9 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily
due to an increase in net revenue of $7.2 million and a decrease in total operating expenses of $0.3 million partially offset by an increase
in provision for income taxes of $1.6 million, an increase in cost of revenues of $1.4 million and a decrease in total other income,
net of $0.5 million.
Bookings
increased 21.1% to $26.9 million compared to $22.2 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to better sales
promotions in 2026 compared to 2025, tailwind momentum from the December 2025 ARK: Lost Colony DLC release, and Bellwright’s
highly regarded content update in late 2025.
EBITDA
increased 173.3% to $2.4 million compared to $(3.2) million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to an increase
in net income of $4.1 million and a decrease in the benefit from income taxes of $1.6 million.
As
of December 31, 2025, unrestricted cash was $14.3 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, while 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.
