Non-Core Results.

Highlights from the full-year 2014 include:
- Managed the business for profitability while making investments
for the future as demonstrated by solid core adjusted EBITDA from
continuing operations of $480.5
million despite a decline in revenue at Redbox due to a
challenging release schedule for much of 2014
- Redbox achieved its 4 billionth cumulative rental in
November 2014
- Extended existing content agreements with Sony, Paramount and
Universal and signed a new agreement with Lionsgate
- Installed more than 1,000 ecoATM® kiosks, bringing
total ecoATM kiosks to 1,890 at December 31, 2014
- Consolidated general and administrative (G&A) expense
improved 13.6% year-over-year primarily as a result of the
company's ongoing focus on expense management
- Core diluted EPS from continuing operations increased 8.6%
year-over-year
- Generated $240.4 million in free
cash flow for the full-year 2014, an increase from $166.4 million in 2013
- Repurchased 7.9 million shares of common stock at an average
price of $68.31 per share for
$541.4 million
Highlights from the fourth quarter 2014 include:
- Successfully implemented Redbox price increases in December 2014 for movies and early January 2015 for video games
- Week of December 29, 2014, marked
the highest rental week in Redbox history, led by strong new
release titles
- Installed approximately 380 net new ecoATM kiosks
- Consolidated revenue increased 1.2% compared with the fourth
quarter of 2013, primarily reflecting an increase in New Ventures
segment revenue as the company continued to scale ecoATM
- Consolidated G&A expense improved 20.9% compared with the
fourth quarter of 2013, primarily as a result of the company's
ongoing focus on expense management
- Core adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations increased 2.7%
compared with the fourth quarter of 2013, primarily due to an
improvement in G&A expense
- Core diluted EPS from continuing operations increased 45.2%
compared with the fourth quarter of 2013, primarily reflecting
share repurchases throughout the year
"Our financial results for the fourth quarter and full-year 2014
reflect our ongoing efforts to manage the business for
profitability and free cash flow while we make the appropriate
investments for our future," said Galen C. Smith, chief
financial officer of Outerwall.
"We continue to maintain a disciplined approach to our capital
allocation strategy and remain committed to our current policy of
returning 75-to-100 percent of annual free cash flow to
shareholders," continued Smith. "Demonstrating confidence in
Outerwall's long-term prospects and future cash flows, our board of
directors declared our first-ever cash dividend payment of
$0.30 per share and approved an
additional authorization of $250.0 million to our share repurchase
program."
Outerwall also announced today that it is shutting down its
Redbox operations in Canada as the
business is not meeting the company's performance expectations. As
a result, the company recognized an after-tax expense of
$1.5 million in the fourth
quarter of 2014 related to the accelerated recognition of content
library and capitalized install costs on property and equipment.
The remaining value of the content library and capitalized install
costs will be amortized over an expected three-month wind-down
period. Following the final shutdown of the operations in
Canada, the company expects to
report Redbox Canada results as a discontinued operation.
"Our 2015 annual guidance reflects our ongoing focus on managing
the business for profitability while continuing to make disciplined
growth investments, including scaling ecoATM," said Smith. "The
recently implemented Redbox price increase will support further
investments in several initiatives to enhance customer experience
and drive engagement. We expect these initiatives will help offset
the secular decline in the physical rental market and that our
actions to improve operational efficiencies and network
optimization will help drive earnings growth."
CONSOLIDATED RESULTS
Consolidated revenue for the fourth quarter of 2014 increased
$6.9 million, or 1.2%, to
$600.6 million compared with
$593.7 million for the fourth quarter
of 2013. The year-over-year increase in consolidated revenue was
primarily due to an increase in New Ventures revenue. For the
full-year 2014, consolidated revenue of $2.30 billion was essentially flat compared
with full-year 2013 revenue, reflecting increases in revenue in the
New Ventures and Coinstar segments and a decline in revenue in the
Redbox segment.
Consolidated G&A expenses were $41.9
million in the fourth quarter of 2014, a 20.9% decrease from
$53.0 million in the fourth
quarter of 2013. For the full-year 2014, G&A expenses of
$191.7 million improved 13.6%
from $221.8 million in 2013. The
improvement in G&A expenses in both periods primarily reflects
the company's ongoing focus on expense management in each of its
lines of business and across its shared services organization.
Operating income for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $85.2 million and operating margin was 14.2%
compared with operating income of $73.0
million and operating margin of 12.3% in the fourth quarter
of 2013. The year‑over-year increase in operating margin primarily
reflects the improvement in G&A and direct operating expenses
that includes a one-time $5.6 million
benefit as a result of a reduction of the estimated liability for
Redbox personal property taxes. For the full-year 2014, operating
income was $248.4 million compared
with $261.0 million in 2013,
primarily reflecting an increase in the operating loss in the New
Ventures segment as the company continued to scale its ecoATM
business during the year.
Income from continuing operations for the fourth quarter of 2014
was $43.8 million, or $2.35 per diluted share, compared with
$42.9 million, or $1.55 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of
2013. For the full-year 2014, income from continuing operations was
$107.4 million, or $5.19 per diluted share, compared with
$208.1 million, or $7.33 per diluted share, for the full-year
2013.
Core adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the fourth
quarter of 2014 was $141.0 million
compared with $137.3 million in the
fourth quarter of 2013. The year-over-year increase was primarily
due to higher segment operating income in the Redbox and Coinstar
segments. For the full-year 2014, core adjusted EBITDA from
continuing operations was $480.5
million compared with $491.7
million for the full-year 2013. The year‑over-year decrease
in core adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations was primarily
due to lower segment operating income in the Redbox segment and a
higher segment operating loss in the New Ventures segment.
Core diluted earnings per share from continuing operations in
the fourth quarter of 2014 were $2.44
compared with $1.68 per diluted share
in the fourth quarter of 2013. For the full-year 2014, core diluted
earnings per share from continuing operations were $6.43 compared with $5.92 per diluted share for 2013.
Net cash provided by operating activities in the fourth quarter
of 2014 was $131.3 million compared
with $180.7 million in the
fourth quarter of 2013. The decrease was primarily due to higher
non-cash expenses in the fourth quarter of 2013, including an
impairment of $27.2 million related
to discontinued operations and a $21.4 million loss from equity method
investments in the fourth quarter of 2013 and a decrease of
$12.3 million in net cash inflows
from changes in working capital. Net cash provided by operating
activities for the year increased by $10.5
million compared with 2013, primarily due to a decrease in
net cash outflows from changes in working capital of $76.9 million partially offset by a decrease in
net income for the year.
Capital expenditures for the fourth quarter of 2014 were
$25.6 million on a cash basis
compared with $38.1 million in
the fourth quarter of 2013. For the year, cash capital expenditures
were $97.9 million in 2014
compared with $161.4 million in
2013. The decrease in capital expenditures in 2014 compared with
2013 was primarily due to lower capital expenditures related to
Redbox kiosks.
Free cash flow for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $105.7 million compared with $142.6 million in the fourth quarter of
2013. Free cash flow for the full-year 2014 was $240.4 million compared with $166.4 million for 2013.
SEGMENT RESULTS
Redbox
Effective December 2, 2014, the
daily rental rate for DVDs was increased from $1.20 to $1.50, and
the daily rental rate for a Blu-ray® Disc was increased
from $1.50 to $2.00. The daily rental rate for video games
increased from $2.00 to $3.00, effective January
6, 2015. The benefit from the price increases to revenue in
December 2014 was greater than the
company expected due to the robust content slate and holiday
seasonality that attracted customers and lessened the impact of
increased prices on rental demand, helping to offset weaker
performance from September and October releases and secular decline
in the physical rental market.
Redbox segment revenue in the fourth quarter of 2014 was
relatively flat at $494.0 million compared with $496.4 million in the fourth quarter of
2013, despite lower rentals in the fourth quarter of 2014 compared
with the fourth quarter of 2013. Rentals declined 10.7 million to
approximately 181.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 compared
with 192.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. Same store sales
decreased 1.3% in the fourth quarter of 2014 compared with an
increase of 0.9% in the fourth quarter of 2013.
Net revenue per rental increased $0.14, or 5.4% to $2.72 in the fourth quarter of 2014 from
$2.58 in the fourth quarter of 2013.
The increase was primarily the result of the impact of the price
increases and the continued shift to Blu-ray in the fourth quarter
of 2014, both of which helped to minimize the impact of lower
rentals in the fourth quarter of 2014 compared with the prior
year.
Redbox segment operating income in the fourth quarter of 2014
was $121.3 million compared with
$111.3 million in the fourth
quarter of 2013. Segment operating margin was 24.6% in the fourth
quarter of 2014 compared with 22.4% in the fourth quarter of 2013,
reflecting the company's focus on managing its costs.
Coinstar
Coinstar segment revenue was $81.9 million, an increase of 1.5%, compared
with $80.7 million in the fourth
quarter of 2013, primarily due to growth in the number of installed
Coinstar Exchange kiosks, a price increase in the U.K., and higher
volume in the U.K. as a result of an increased U.K. kiosk base.
Same store sales grew 3.3% in the fourth quarter of 2014 compared
with 5.9% in the fourth quarter of 2013. The average transaction
size in the fourth quarter of 2014 increased $0.63 to $44.45
from the fourth quarter of 2013.
Effective August 1, 2014, the
company implemented a price increase for all U.K. grocery retail
locations for the coin voucher product, increasing the fee from
8.9% to 9.9%.
Coinstar segment operating income was $33.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2014,
an increase of 8.9% compared with the fourth quarter of 2013, and
Coinstar segment operating margin was 41.0% in the fourth quarter
of 2014, an increase of 280 basis points compared with 38.2% in the
fourth quarter of 2013. The increases reflect the higher revenue
and continued efforts to manage costs and increase productivity in
the business.
New Ventures
New Ventures segment operating results primarily reflect the
operations and performance of ecoATM. Beginning in the first
quarter of 2015, the company expects to report ecoATM results as a
separate segment.
New Ventures segment revenue was $24.7 million compared with $16.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2013,
primarily due to the increase in the number of ecoATM kiosks and
continued ramping of kiosks deployed in 2014. The company installed
approximately 380 net new ecoATM kiosks during the fourth quarter
of 2014, primarily in the grocery channel, and ended 2014 with a
total of approximately 1,890 ecoATM kiosks. As of December 31, 2014, there were approximately 1,980
New Ventures kiosks installed.
New Ventures direct operating expense was $28.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2014
compared with $16.6 million in the
fourth quarter of 2013. This year-over-year increase primarily
reflects the necessary investments to support and grow ecoATM and
the company's investment in SAMPLEit. Expenses include
acquiring, transporting and processing mobile devices at ecoATM,
servicing kiosks and payments to retailers.
In the fourth quarter of 2014, New Ventures segment revenue
decreased sequentially from $29.7
million in the third quarter of 2014 primarily due to
seasonality, a lower mix of high value devices, and a lower average
selling price in the secondary market resulting from an increased
supply of devices following the iPhone 6 release in September 2014. New Ventures direct operating
expense increased from $27.0 million
in the third quarter of 2014 primarily due to lower than expected
revenue in the fourth quarter of 2014 that did not cover the fixed
costs per kiosk associated with additional installations and
continued investments necessary to scale and grow the business.
CAPITAL ALLOCATION
On February 3, 2015, the company's board of directors
declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share to be paid on March 18,
2015, to all stockholders of record as of the close of business on
March 3, 2015. Future quarterly dividend payments will be
subject to approval by the board of directors.
During 2014, the company repurchased 7.9 million shares of
common stock at an average price of $68.31 per share for approximately $541.4 million.
As of December 31, 2014, there was approximately
$163.7 million remaining under
the company's stock repurchase authorization. On
February 3, 2015, the company's board of directors approved an
additional stock repurchase authorization of up to $250.0 million of its common stock plus the
cash proceeds received from the exercise of stock options by the
company's directors and employees, bringing the total available for
repurchases to approximately $413.7 million.
The company's net leverage ratio1 was 1.88x at
December 31, 2014. The company
continues to target a net leverage ratio in the range of 1.75x to
2.25x in 2015.

2015 ANNUAL GUIDANCE
Beginning this year, the company is providing annual guidance
only and expects to update its annual guidance as appropriate after
reporting its financial results each quarter during the year.
There are several factors that influence the company's 2015
expectations, including the impact of pricing, the timing and
number of net kiosk installations, the new release schedule and
strength of content, and the company's ability to further align
costs with revenue.
Outerwall's 2015 annual guidance reflects:
- the anticipated benefit of the Redbox price increase that is
expected to be partially offset by secular decline;
- a decrease in box office for titles releasing at Redbox
compared with 2014;
- the continued growth and scaling of ecoATM and further testing
of the company's SAMPLEit business; and
- ongoing investment in Coinstar Exchange as the business proves
out.
As a reminder, Outerwall's guidance for weighted-average diluted
shares outstanding does not include the impact from any potential
share repurchases in 2015.

During 2013, we
discontinued four ventures previously included in our New Ventures
operating segment: Orango, Rubi, Crisp Market, and Star Studio.
Cash flows from these discontinued operations are not segregated
from cash flows from continuing operations in all periods presented
because they were not material.

APPENDIX A
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Non-GAAP measures may be provided as a complement to results
provided in accordance with United
States generally accepted accounting principles
("GAAP").
We use the following non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our
financial results:
- Core adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations;
- Core diluted earnings per share ("EPS") from continuing
operations;
- Free cash flow; and
- Net debt and net leverage ratio.
These measures, the definitions of which are presented below,
are non-GAAP because they exclude certain amounts which are
included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and
presented in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures
are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for
our GAAP financial measures and may not be comparable with
similarly titled measures of other companies.
Core and Non-Core Results
We distinguish our core activities, those associated with our
primary operations which we directly control, from non-core
activities. Non-core activities are primarily nonrecurring events
or events we do not directly control. Our non-core adjustments for
the periods presented include, but not limited to, i) restructuring
costs associated with actions to reduce costs in our continuing
operations primarily through workforce reductions across the
Company, ii) acquisition costs primarily related to the acquisition
of ecoATM, iii) compensation expense for rights to receive cash
issued in conjunction with our acquisition of ecoATM and
attributable to post-combination services as they are fixed amount
acquisition related awards and not indicative of the directly
controllable future business results, iv) income or loss from
equity method investments, which represents our share of income or
loss from entities we do not consolidate or control and includes
the impacts of the gain on re-measurement of our previously held
equity interest in ecoATM upon acquisition, v) benefits from
release of indemnification reserves upon settlement of the Sigue
Note and vi) tax benefits related to a net operating loss
adjustment and the recognition of a worthless stock deduction in a
corporate subsidiary ("Non-Core Adjustments").
We believe investors should consider our core results because
they are more indicative of our ongoing performance and trends, are
more consistent with how management evaluates our operational
results and trends, provide meaningful supplemental information to
investors through the exclusion of certain expenses which are
either nonrecurring or may not be indicative of our directly
controllable business operating results, allow for greater
transparency in assessing our performance, help investors better
analyze the results of our business and assist in forecasting
future periods.
Core Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations
Our non-GAAP financial measure core adjusted EBITDA from
continuing operations is defined as earnings from continuing
operations before depreciation, amortization and other; interest
expense, net; income taxes; share-based payments expense; and
Non-Core Adjustments.
A reconciliation of core adjusted EBITDA from continuing
operations to net income from continuing operations, the most
comparable GAAP financial measure, is presented in the following
table:

Free Cash Flow
Our non-GAAP financial measure free cash flow is defined as net
cash provided by operating activities after capital expenditures.
We believe free cash flow is an important non-GAAP measure as it
provides additional information to users of the financial
statements regarding our ability to service, incur or pay down
indebtedness and repurchase our securities. A reconciliation of
free cash flow to net cash provided by operating activities, the
most comparable GAAP financial measure, is presented in the
following table:

Net Debt and Net Leverage Ratio
Our non-GAAP financial measure net debt is defined as the total
face value of outstanding debt, including capital leases, less cash
and cash equivalents held in financial institutions domestically.
Our non-GAAP financial measure net leverage ratio is defined as net
debt divided by core adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for
the last twelve months (LTM). We believe net debt and net leverage
ratio are important non-GAAP measures because they:
- are used to assess the degree of leverage by management;
- provide additional information to users of the financial
statements regarding our ability to service, incur or pay down
indebtedness and repurchase our securities as well as additional
information about our capital structure; and
- are reported quarterly to support covenant compliance under our
credit agreement.
A reconciliation of net debt to total outstanding debt including
capital leases, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, is
presented in the following table:
