“In 2023, we implemented a comprehensive plan to significantly reduce costs, improve operational efficiencies and focus on our core product offerings,” said Michael Lunsford, Funko’s Interim Chief Executive Officer. “The major elements of that plan, which addressed the company's inventory issues, unprofitable product lines and SKUs, workforce size, and several other factors, were successfully completed, and we believe our company is now on a significantly more solid foundation upon which we intend to build and grow.
“For the 2023 fourth quarter, net sales and adjusted EBITDA were at the upper end of our guidance range, fueled in part by growth in our direct-to-consumer (DTC) business, which accounted for 26 percent of our revenue and increased nearly 30 percent compared with the same quarter of the prior year. Gross margin of 38 percent was the highest of any quarter in 2023.
“Turning to our balance sheet, we substantially lowered our inventory levels to $119 million at December 31, 2023 from $246 million at the end of last year and $162 million at September 30, 2023. We also paid down our debt by $26 million in the fourth quarter and used the proceeds from a transaction related to our Games business to further reduce our debt in the first quarter of 2024.
“Looking ahead, we face a softer content schedule following the recent Hollywood strikes and uncertainty around shipping costs caused by the Red Sea situation. Despite these headwinds, we expect our bottom line to significantly improve in 2024 compared with 2023. Our belief is based on the actions we are taking to, among other things, further expand our DTC business and increase sales of Pop! Yourself and limited-edition products – areas we control and can grow profitably.”
Leadership Update
The company also announced today that Steve Nave, Funko’s Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and Chief Operating Officer, is resigning effective March 15, 2024. Yves LePendeven, the company’s Deputy CFO, will serve as Acting CFO as of the same date.
“Steve joined us a year ago to help with our cost reduction and operational improvement plan,” said Lunsford. “We have made significant progress against that plan and thank Steve for his contributions. We wish Steve success in his future endeavors.
“I have worked with Yves for several years now, as both a board member and as the interim CEO. I have complete faith in Yves to lead our Finance and Accounting functions. We believe we now have in place a strong, lean, aligned senior leadership team to support the arrival of a new CEO and the growth of Funko.”

*Adjusted net loss, adjusted net loss per diluted share and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. For a reconciliation of historical adjusted net loss, adjusted loss per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA, to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures, please refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this press release. A reconciliation of adjusted net loss, adjusted net loss per diluted share and adjusted EBITDA outlook to the corresponding GAAP measure on a forward-looking basis cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts, as we are unable to provide reconciling information with respect to certain items. However, for the first quarter of 2024 the company expects equity-based compensation of approximately $4 million, depreciation and amortization of approximately $16 million and interest expense of approximately $6 million. For the full year 2024, the company expects equity-based compensation of approximately $15 million, depreciation and amortization of approximately $64 million and interest expense of approximately $18 million, each of which is a reconciling item to net loss. See "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and the attached reconciliations for more information.
Conference Call and Webcast
The company will host a conference call at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time (1:30 p.m. Pacific Time) today, March 7, 2024, to further discuss its fourth-quarter and full-year results and business update. A live webcast, presentation materials and a replay of the event will be available on the Investor Relations section on the Company’s website at investor.funko.com. The replay of the webcast will be available for one year.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release contains references to non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted net income (loss), including per share amounts, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin, which are financial measures that are not prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). Management uses these measures internally for evaluating its operating performance, for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and financials projections, and to assess incentive compensation for our employees, and to evaluate our capacity to expand our business. In addition, our senior secured credit facilities use adjusted EBITDA to measure our compliance with covenants such as senior leverage ratio. The company's management believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplementary information regarding operational performance, because it enhances an investor's overall understanding of the financial results for the company's core business. Additionally, it provides a basis for the comparison of the financial results for the company's core business between current, past and future periods as they remove the impact of items not directly resulting from our core operations. The company also believes that including Adjusted EBITDA and the other non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release is appropriate to provide additional information to investors and help to compare against other companies in our industry. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should be considered only as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for or as a superior measure to, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of adjusted net income (loss), including per share amounts, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by our competitors, because not all companies and analysts calculate these measures in the same manner.
Detailed reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the financial tables following this release.
