Kind of a mixed report, revenue down 6%, but the stock moved up nicely.

Now up at $11 Is it going up more, or is this a good time to lighten

Travelzoo Reports Fourth Quarter 2013 Results and Announces Share Repurchase Program
Business Wire Travelzoo Inc.
59 minutes ago
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Travelzoo Inc. (TZOO):

Fourth Quarter 2013 Financial Highlights:

Revenue of $37.5 million, up 1% year-over-year
Operating income of $4.5 million, up 3% year-over-year
Net income of $3.2 million
Earnings per share of $0.21, compared to $0.24 in the prior-year period
Cash used in operations was $1.8 million
Travelzoo Inc., a global Internet media company, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, with revenue of $37.5 million, an increase of 1% year-over-year. Operating income was $4.5 million, up 3% year-over-year. Net income was $3.2 million, with earnings per share of $0.21, down from $0.24 in the prior-year period.

Travelzoo also announced that its board of directors has authorized the repurchase of up to 500,000 of the company's outstanding common shares. Purchases may be made, from time to time, in the open market and will be funded from available cash. The number of shares to be purchased and the timing of purchases will be based on the level of Travelzoo's cash balances, general business and market conditions, and other factors, including alternative investment opportunities.

"Our Travel products showed continued strength in Q4, particularly in Europe, which contributed 40% of the company's profits. These gains were offset by revenue declines in SuperSearch and Fly.com," said Chris Loughlin, chief executive officer. "We will continue to invest in audience and products to spur future growth. These include our hotel booking platform, which is now in internal testing, as well as features that make it easier for our users to find deals when and where they need them, particularly on their mobile devices."

For the full year, revenue was $158.2 million, an increase of 5% year-over-year. GAAP operating income was $2.3 million, down 91% year-over-year. Non-GAAP operating income was $24.3 million, down 15% year-over-year. GAAP net loss was $5.0 million, with loss per share of $0.33, compared to earnings per share of $1.14 in the prior-year period. Non-GAAP net income was $17.0 million, with earnings per share of $1.11, down from $1.33 in the prior-year period. For the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share exclude a $22.0 million and a $3.0 million charge related to a reserve for Travelzoo Inc.'s settlement agreements in connection with a dispute over unclaimed property audits.

North America

North America business segment revenue decreased 3% year-over-year to $25.6 million. Operating profit for the fourth quarter was $2.7 million, or 10% of revenue, down from $3.4 million, or 13% of revenue, in the prior-year period.

Europe

Europe business segment revenue increased 12% year-over-year to $11.9 million. In local currency terms, revenue increased 11% year-over-year. Operating profit for the fourth quarter was $1.8 million, or 15% of revenue, up from $1.0 million, or 9% of revenue in the prior-year period.

Search Products

In response to declining revenue and profit from its Search products, which include SuperSearch and Fly.com, the Company has initiated a performance review, which may result in merging the products, discontinuing or replacing one or both of them. "Challenges in traffic acquisition from search engines and poor monetization on mobile devices have led to continued declines in Search revenue," said Glen Ceremony, chief financial officer. "As we are reviewing these products and working on their improvement, we will also put a stronger focus on profitability, which could result in a revenue decline of approximately $1.5 million from SuperSearch versus the prior-year period."

Subscribers

Travelzoo had a total unduplicated number of subscribers in North America and Europe of 23.3 million as of December 31, 2013, up 4% from December 31, 2012. In North America, total unduplicated number of subscribers was 16.6 million as of December 31, 2013, up 3% from December 31, 2012. In Europe, total unduplicated number of subscribers was 6.8 million as of December 31, 2013, up 6% from December 31, 2012.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense was $1.3 million, compared to $692,000 in the prior-year period. The effective income tax rate was 29%, up from 16% in the prior-year period.

Asset Management

During the fourth quarter of 2013, Travelzoo used $1.8 million of cash from operating activities. Accounts receivable increased by $360,000 over the prior-year period to $14.0 million. Accounts payable increased by $3.1 million over the prior-year period to $31.8 million. Capital expenditures were $1.9 million, up from $698,000 in the prior-year period. As of December 31, 2013, cash and cash equivalents were $66.2 million.

Non-GAAP Measures

To give an enhanced view of Travelzoo's operating performance, management has calculated non-GAAP operating expense, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP effective tax rate, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share by excluding the charges related to our unexchanged promotional shares. The company believes these metrics assist investors to assess certain business trends in the same way that these trends are analyzed by management. The discussion of these non-GAAP metrics are not in accordance with GAAP and may differ from non-GAAP methods of accounting and reporting used by other companies. Non-GAAP metrics are merely a supplement to, and not a replacement for, GAAP financial measures. As the only difference between GAAP and non-GAAP measures is the charges related to our unexchanged promotional shares, today’s reporting should not be viewed as Travelzoo’s intention to report non-GAAP measures in future periods. Refer to the “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures” section of this press release for a summary of these non-GAAP measures and their reconciliation to the reported GAAP measures.

Conference Call

Travelzoo will host a conference call to discuss fourth quarter results at 11:00 a.m. ET today. Please visit http://www.travelzoo.com/earnings to

Travelzoo Reports Third Quarter 2013 Results
Business WirePress Release: Travelzoo Inc. – 14 hours ago

Travelzoo Inc. (TZOO):
Third Quarter 2013 Financial Highlights:
Revenue of $37.3 million, up 5% year-over-year
Non-GAAP net income of $3.0 million
Non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.19, compared to $0.21 in the prior-year period
GAAP net loss of $19.0 million; GAAP loss per share of $1.24
Cash flow from operations of $2.2 million
Travelzoo Inc., a global Internet media company, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2013, with revenue of $37.3 million, an increase of 5% year-over-year. Non-GAAP operating income was $4.0 million. Non-GAAP net income was $3.0 million, with non-GAAP earnings per share (non-GAAP EPS) of $0.19, down from non-GAAP EPS of $0.21 in the prior-year period. Non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share exclude a $22.0 million charge related to a reserve for Travelzoo Inc.'s settlement agreements in connection with a dispute over unclaimed property audits.
"Our combined Travel business grew 16% year-over-year, this progress was offset by disappointing results in our Search and Local businesses," said Chris Loughlin, chief executive officer. "We continue to invest in product development in order to make it easier to find and book deals on Travelzoo and to spur future growth. We launched a new home page this quarter and intend to start beta-testing our new hotel booking platform at the beginning of next year. Purchases on mobile products increased 41% year-over-year. On the social media side, we are now one of the more active travel brands, with over 1.8 million combined fans and followers on Facebook and Twitter."
North America
North America business segment revenue increased 4% year-over-year to $26.2 million. Non-GAAP operating income for the third quarter ended September 30, 2013 was $2.5 million, or 10% of revenue, down from $3.1 million, or 12% of revenue, in the prior-year period.
Europe
Europe business segment revenue increased 7% year-over-year to $11.0 million. In local currency terms, revenue for the third quarter September 30, 2013 increased 9% year-over-year. Operating profit was $1.5 million, or 13% of revenue, up from an operating profit of $1.1 million, or 10% of revenue in the prior-year period.
Subscribers
Travelzoo had a total unduplicated number of subscribers in North America and Europe of 23.2 million as of September 30, 2013, up 4% from September 30, 2012. In North America, total unduplicated number of subscribers was 16.5 million as of September 30, 2013, up 3% from September 30, 2012. In Europe, total unduplicated number of subscribers was 6.7 million as of September 30, 2013, up 6% from September 30, 2012.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $1.2 million, compared to $896,000 in the prior-year period. The Non-GAAP effective income tax rate was 29%, up from 21% in the prior-year period.
Asset Management
During the third quarter of 2013, Travelzoo generated $2.2 million of cash from operating activities. Accounts receivable decreased by $622,000 over the prior-year period to $14.8 million. Accounts payable increased by $4.4 million over the prior-year period to $27.7 million. Capital expenditures were $1.5 million, up from $774,000 in the prior-year period. As of September 30, 2013, cash and cash equivalents were $77.9 million.
Unclaimed Property Audits
Travelzoo entered into agreements with 34 states to resolve those states’ claims related to unclaimed property audits. As previously disclosed in the Company’s reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q, multiple states have claimed that certain shares of Travelzoo, which were not claimed by former shareholders of Travelzoo.com Corporation following the 2002 merger, were unclaimed property. While the Company disputes the states’ claims, the Company determined that it was in its best interest to resolve the disputes and settle with 34 of the states.
The multi-state settlement relates to an approximate 700,000 shares of Travelzoo that those states claim may be subject to escheat. An additional 15 states remain that have or may raise claims on a remaining approximate 400,000 shares that were not exchanged following the merger by residents in those states.
The Company expects to make one-time cash payments to the 34 states after further due diligence, which it intends to make from cash on hand. To cover those payments, as well as potential future settlements with the remaining 15 states, the Company recorded an estimated $22.0 million charge in the three months ended September 30, 2013.
Non-GAAP Measures
To give an enhanced view of Travelzoo's operating performance, management has calculated non-GAAP operating expense, non-GAAP North America operating income, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP effective tax rate, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share by excluding the charges related to our unexchanged merger shares. The company believes these metrics assist investors to assess certain business trends in the same way that these trends are analyzed by management. The discussion of these non-GAAP metrics are not in accordance with GAAP and may differ from non-GAAP methods of accounting and reporting used by other companies. Non-GAAP metrics are merely a supplement to, and not a replacement for, GAAP financial measures. As the only difference between GAAP and non-GAAP measures is the charges related to our unexchanged merger shares, today’s reporting should not be viewed as Travelzoo’s intention to report non-GAAP measures in future periods. Refer to the “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures” section of this press release for a summary of these non-GAAP measures and their reconciliation to the reported GAAP measures.
Conference Call
Travelzoo will host a conference call to discuss third quarter results at 11:00 a.m. ET today. Please visit http://www.travelzoo.com/earnings to

Travelzoo Restaurant Offers Inspire First-Time Visits; 81 Percent Plan to Return at Full Price Press Release: Travelzoo – Thu, Jun 20, 2013 10:16 AM EDT

NEW YORK, June 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Travelzoo Inc. ( TZOO), a global Internet media company, revealed today that its subscribers are using Travelzoo to discover restaurants, both at home and while on vacation, and are later returning as full-price guests, according to an independent survey. Of those diners who purchased a restaurant offer on Travelzoo in the past 12 months, 24 percent have already returned for a full-price experience; a further 57 percent plan to return to the restaurant in the future. In addition, 61 percent of Travelzoo subscribers share their positive experiences with friends and family.

Travelzoo dining offers inspire subscribers to make their first visit to a restaurant. Of those who took up a Travelzoo offer, 56 percent went to a restaurant featured on Travelzoo that they would not have otherwise visited. Forty-eight percent recommended restaurants to their friends or family after trying it out with a Travelzoo offer.

In addition to a high percentage returning at full price, 59 percent of Travelzoo diners spend at least 30 percent more than the face value of the offer while dining. Twenty-five percent of Travelzoo diners say they are using Travelzoo to discover restaurants while on vacation.

"Travelzoo has become a force in high-quality dining. Since 2011 we have inspired our subscribers to book more than 2 million tables," said Mike Stitt, vice president and general manager of Travelzoo Local. "Our focus on featuring only high-quality restaurants that offer our subscribers exceptional experiences has been a win-win-win for our brand, our subscribers and those restaurants that we recommend. We now have 26 million subscribers using Travelzoo to discover restaurants they might have never found on their own."

The survey results confirmed Travelzoo restaurant customers are mature and affluent, with 80 percent falling between the ages of 35 to 64, and half having individual annual incomes of $100,000 or more. Two out of three customers are female, with 71 percent considering themselves 'foodies.' Seventy-eight percent live with another adult, and 80 percent have no children living at home, providing more freedom to dine out and greater flexibility to take advantage of dining opportunities. Fifty-seven percent of Travelzoo restaurant customers have dinner at a restaurant between three and seven times per week.

Qualitative feedback from Travelzoo's restaurant partners confirms the quantitative insights from the independent survey:

Chef and owner, Kerry Simon, Simon Restaurant at the Palms Casino Resort, Las Vegas:

"For us, Travelzoo is one of the most effective ways to get visitors to Las Vegas into the restaurant that are definite foodies. I am so impressed with how this works to fill our restaurant almost immediately with a quality clientele that appreciate what we do and spend more. And, because it enables us to reach a national audience of travelers, it is always great exposure for our brand. We have worked with Travelzoo over ten times and this is now part of our ongoing marketing plan."

Marc Glosserman, Founder & CEO, Hill Country Hospitality, Washington, D.C.:

"We have found that partnering with Travelzoo has not only provided a nice jolt to our business in the periods that we run promotions, but that Travelzoo guests are genuinely seeking a quality dining experience -- and it certainly doesn't hurt that they typically spend more in the restaurant than the value of the voucher they are redeeming."

Bart Retolatto, Executive Chef, La Bottega, New York:

"Travelzoo guests are high-quality, sophisticated diners who have taken great interest in the food and proactively interact with the chef. They tend to be 'foodies' and we appreciate that many were true locals from our Chelsea neighborhood."

2013 Travelzoo Dining Survey methodology:

The survey was conducted in April 2013 by ORC International, a leading global market research firm. ORC International surveyed Travelzoo's U.S. subscribers and conducted the survey among a sample of 833 respondents that had purchased a restaurant voucher in the past 12 months.

Travelzoo Inc. Board of Directors Approves Reverse/Forward Stock Split





Print


Alert



Travelzoo Inc. (MM) (NASDAQ:TZOO)
Intraday Stock Chart

Today : Wednesday 12 June 2013
Click Here for more Travelzoo Inc. (MM) Charts.

Travelzoo Inc. (NASDAQ: TZOO), a global Internet media company, today announced that a Special Committee of its Board of Directors, consisting of three independent directors (the “Special Committee”), and its full Board of Directors unanimously approved a reverse/forward stock split transaction, subject to shareholder approval, intended to reduce its shareholder account administration costs by reducing the number of its shareholders from over 90,000 to fewer than 10,000.

The proposed reverse/forward stock split transaction consists of a 1-for-25 reverse stock split of the Company's outstanding common stock, followed immediately by a 25-for-1 forward stock split (collectively referred to as the “reverse/forward split”). Shareholders holding less than 25 shares of common stock immediately prior to the reverse split will not receive fractional shares in the reverse stock split, but will instead have their shares converted into the right to receive a cash payment in exchange for and in proportion to the fractional share interests resulting from the reverse stock split. These fractional share interests will be aggregated by the Company’s transfer agent and sold on the open market following the forward stock split.

Shareholders who held less than 25 shares immediately prior to the reverse stock split will receive a cash payment based on and equal to their resulting fractional interest times the price of a share equal to the higher of (a) the trailing ten day average trading price of the Company’s common stock immediately preceding consummation of the reverse/forward split or (b) the average aggregate sales price received in the sale on the open market of the shares resulting from aggregation of the fractionalized interests. Shareholders holding 25 or more shares of common stock immediately before the reverse/forward split will not receive a cash payment, but will continue to hold the same number of shares after completion of the reverse/forward split as they held immediately prior. As a result, the Company anticipates no changes in the total number of outstanding shares of common stock as a result of the reverse/forward split.

Shareholders holding fewer than 25 shares can avoid being cashed out by this proposed transaction by increasing their shareholdings to 25 or more shares of common stock or, if applicable, combining their various accounts to have one shareholder account with 25 or more shares held, so long as such actions are effected prior to completion of the reverse/forward split. The Company expects both registered and beneficial shareholder accounts holding less than 25 shares of common stock will be cashed out; however, persons that beneficially hold shares through a nominee (such as a broker or bank) will be advised to contact their nominee to be informed of any procedures such holders may need to follow in order to ensure the same treatment as registered shareholders.

The Company expects that approximately 655,000 of its outstanding shares will be fractionalized as a result of the reverse stock split and subsequently sold by the Company’s transfer agent on the open market to fund the cash payments to shareholders that hold only fractional share interests as a result of the reverse stock split.

The Special Committee engaged Duff & Phelps, LLC as financial advisors to review the fairness of the transaction, and received from them an opinion regarding the fairness, from a financial point of view, to the Company's shareholders whose positions, individually considered, consist of fewer than 25 shares, of the per-share consideration to be received by such shareholders in the reverse/forward split.

Closing of the transaction is conditioned upon receipt of a bring-down fairness opinion prior to the execution of the proposed reverse/forward split and approval by the Company's shareholders, including a majority of the Company's non-affiliated shareholders.

The Special Committee received legal counsel from Young Conaway Stargatt & Taylor, LLP in connection with their review of the proposed transaction. In addition, the Company received legal counsel from Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP and Bryan Cave LLP in connection with the proposed transaction.

The Company plans to seek shareholder approval of this proposed transaction at its annual shareholders' meeting in order to reduce proxy-related costs. The Company expects to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") its preliminary proxy statement for the annual meeting and the proposed reverse/forward split and will determine the annual meeting date, which will be disclosed in the definitive proxy statement to be filed with the SEC and mailed to shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting.

The Special Committee retains the right to defer or abandon the proposed transaction at any time prior to its completion, even if shareholder approval is obtained.

This press release is only a description of the proposed transaction and is not an offer to sell or acquire any shares of common stock.

Travelzoo Reports First Quarter 2013 Results
Press Release: Travelzoo – 4 hours ago.. .

Travelzoo Inc. (TZOO):
• Revenue of $42.2 million, up 7% year-over-year
• Net income of $5.6 million, up 49% year-over-year
• Earnings per share of $0.36, compared to $0.23 (GAAP) / $0.42 (non-GAAP) in the prior-year period
• Cash flow from operations of $6.5 million

Travelzoo Inc., a global Internet media company, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2013, with revenue of $42.2 million, an increase of 7% year-over-year. Operating profit was $8.0 million. Net income was $5.6 million, with earnings per share of $0.36, up from $0.23 in the prior-year period. Non-GAAP earnings per share was $0.36, down from $0.42 in the prior-year period.

“We kicked off 2013 with record revenues, driven by strong performance within our travel segments in both North America and Europe,” said Chris Loughlin, chief executive officer. “We accelerated subscriber growth and made significant improvements in audience engagement across email, social media and mobile apps. We continued to develop our new hotel booking platform, which we plan to roll out later this year.”

North America

North America business segment revenue increased 5% year-over-year to $30.2 million. Operating profit for the first quarter was $5.5 million, or 18% of revenue, down from $7.1 million, or 25% of revenue, in the prior-year period. The decrease in operating profit was a result of increased expenses related to sales force expansion, hotel booking platform development, traffic acquisition and subscriber marketing.

Europe

Europe business segment revenue increased 14% year-over-year to $12.4 million. In local currency terms, revenue for the first quarter increased 14% year-over-year. Operating profit was $2.5 million, or 21% of revenue, up from an operating profit of $2.4 million, or 23% of revenue in the prior-year period.

Subscribers

Travelzoo had a total unduplicated number of subscribers in North America and Europe of 22.9 million as of March 31, 2013, up 5% from March 31, 2012. In North America, total unduplicated number of subscribers was 16.3 million as of March 31, 2013, up 3% from March 31, 2012. In Europe, total unduplicated number of subscribers was 6.5 million as of March 31, 2013, up 9% from March 31, 2012.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense was $2.5 million, compared to $2.9 million in the prior-year period. The non-GAAP effective income tax rate was 31%, up from 30% in the prior-year period.

Asset Management

During the first quarter 2013, Travelzoo generated $6.5 million of cash from operating activities. Accounts receivable increased by $648,000 over the prior-year period to $15.3 million. Accounts payable increased by $4.5 million over the prior-year period to $26.9 million. Capital expenditures were $900,000, up from $678,000 in the prior-year period. Travelzoo exited the first quarter with $65.1 million in cash and cash equivalents.

Non-GAAP Measures

To give an enhanced view of the company's operating performance, management has calculated non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share by excluding the $3 million charge related to our unexchanged promotional merger shares in the prior-year period. The company believes these metrics assist investors to assess certain business trends in the same way that these trends are analyzed by management. The discussion of non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP earnings share are not in accordance with GAAP and may differ from non-GAAP methods of accounting and reporting used by other companies. Non-GAAP numbers are merely a supplement to, and not a replacement for, GAAP financial measures. As the only difference between GAAP and non-GAAP measures is the charge related to our unexchanged promotional merger shares in the prior- year period, today's reporting should not be viewed as the company's intention to report non-GAAP measures in future periods. Refer to the “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures” section of this release for a summary of these non-GAAP measures and their reconciliation to the reported GAAP measures.
