Scripps Networks Interactive Reports Third Quarter Financial Results
CINCINNATI --(Business Wire)--
Scripps Networks Interactive Inc. (NYSE: SNI) today reported operating results for the third quarter 2009.
Results for the three-month period ended Sept. 30 reflect strong affiliate fee revenue growth and improved advertising sales at the company's flagship cable television networks, Food Network and HGTV.
Consolidated revenue for the quarter was flat relative to the prior year period at $364 million. Total revenue from the company's portfolio of Lifestyle Media television networks, Web sites and other related businesses was up 4.3 percent for the period compared with last year.
Consolidated expenses for the quarter decreased 4.5 percent year over year.
Third quarter net income attributable to Scripps Networks Interactive was $65.3 million, or 39 cents per share, compared with $57.3 million, or 35 cents, in the third quarter 2008. In the third quarter 2008, net income was reduced by 3 cents per share due to a $4.5 million charge that resulted from a re-measurement of the company's deferred tax liabilities. The re-measurement was related to the company's spinoff from its former parent.
In the third quarter 2009, consolidated segment profit was up 7.9 percent to $144 million from $134 million in the prior-year period. (See Note 2 for a definition of segment profit). The company generated $157 million in cash from continuing operations.
Led by HGTV and Food Network, revenue at the company's Lifestyle Media business segment grew 4.3 percent to $326 million. Lifestyle Media advertising revenue grew slightly while affiliate fee revenue was up 16 percent on higher rates for HGTV and expanding distribution of all of the company's television networks.
Other television networks operated by Scripps Networks Interactive include DIY Network, Great American Country (GAC) and Fine Living Network (FLN). The company announced in October that it is rebranding FLN to the new Cooking Channel. The rebranding is expected to be completed sometime during the third quarter of 2010.
Non-programming expenses at the Lifestyle Media segment were down 3.3 percent, while programming amortization costs were up 7.0 percent. Total expenses for the segment were up 1.2 percent for the quarter. The company has said that it expects programming amortization expenses to increase by 9 to 11 percent for the full year. Non-programming costs are expected to be flat to down slightly for the year.
Lifestyle Media segment profit during the third quarter grew 8.3 percent to $150 million from the prior year period.
Revenue from the company's Interactive Services business segment, which includes online comparison shopping services Shopzilla and BizRate, was $39.0 million during the third quarter compared with $52.1 million during the same period in 2008. The company's initiatives to reposition and differentiate Shopzilla's products continue to show positive trends. The number of product offers available to consumers has nearly doubled since the last holiday season, and leads to Shopzilla merchant partners in the quarter grew 19 percent year over year. The lead volume metric is important because it measures the value Shopzilla is delivering to its direct merchant partners, as well as the level of engagement that consumers are having with the core content on its branded comparison shopping Web sites at BizRate.com and Shopzilla.com.
Interactive Services expenses were down 20 percent as a result of actions the company has taken to establish a lower cost structure for the business.
Interactive Services segment profit was $6.4 million in the third quarter compared with $11.5 million during the same period a year earlier. The company expects Shopzilla segment profit to be above $30 million for the full year.
"Scripps Networks Interactive had a solid third quarter, delivering revenue and segment profit growth in the midst of the challenging macro-economic environment," said Kenneth W. Lowe, chairman, president and chief executive officer. "An improving advertising market for cable television networks and double-digit growth in affiliate fee revenue drove the company's consolidated results.
"At our Lifestyle Media businesses, Food Network and HGTV continued to perform exceptionally well, attracting ever-growing numbers of engaged viewers and solidifying their competitive positions as television's leading destinations for food- and home-oriented lifestyle content," Lowe said. "Audience (News - Alert) growth has been particularly robust at Food Network, which for the first time in its history ranked among the Top-10 U.S. cable networks.
"At our Interactive Services businesses, BizRate and Shopzilla generated segment profit in line with our expectations in large part due to the lower cost structure we've achieved. Initiatives under way to improve the online shopping experience for both consumers and merchants also are driving positive trends, including an increase in the number of qualified leads we're sending to our merchant partners."
The reporting of quarterly financial results comes a day after the company announced it will enter into a joint venture with Cox (News - Alert) Communications Inc., by which it will acquire a controlling interest in the Travel Channel. The two companies Thursday signed a definitive agreement that, upon completion, will result in Scripps Networks Interactive owning 65 percent of the Travel Channel and Cox Communications retaining a 35 percent stake in the network.
The Travel Channel transaction, which will be structured as a leveraged joint venture, is expected to be completed by or before January 2010.

Notes to Results of Operations
1. OTHER CHARGES AND CREDITS
As a result of the distribution of Scripps Networks Interactive, Inc. to the shareholders of The E. W. Scripps Company, SNI employees holding share-based equity awards, including share options and restricted shares, have received modified awards in our Company's stock. Under share-based payment accounting principles, the adjustment to the outstanding share based equity awards is considered a modification and incremental share-based compensation expense is recognized to the extent that the fair value of the awards immediately prior to the modification is less than the fair value of the awards immediately after the modification. Our third quarter 2008 results include a non-cash charge of $4.9 million related to the modification of these stock-based awards. Net income was reduced by $3.2 million.
In connection with the separation of the Company from E. W. Scripps, our deferred tax balances were re-measured to reflect the enacted state tax rates applicable to our tax jurisdictions as a stand-alone company. The re-measurement of our deferred tax liability balances resulted in a one-time charge to our tax provision in the third quarter of 2008 that reduced net income by $4.5 million and increased our quarterly effective tax rate by 3.7 percent.
In the second quarter of 2008, E. W. Scripps redeemed their outstanding notes which were previously allocated to us in our combined financial statements. The associated loss on extinguishment from such redemption, which was not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes, was allocated to us in our statement of operations resulting in a reduction to year-to-date net income of $26.4 million, $.16 per share.
2. SEGMENT INFORMATION
We determine our business segments based upon our management and internal reporting structure. Our reportable segments are strategic businesses that offer different products and services.
Lifestyle Media includes our national television networks, HGTV, Food Network, DIY, FLN, and SN Digital which includes Web sites that are associated with the aforementioned television brands and other Internet-based businesses serving food or shelter related categories such as RecipeZaar.com, HGTVPro.com, and FrontDoor.com. Our networks also operate domestically and internationally through licensing agreements with other entities. We own approximately 69% of Food Network and approximately 94% of Fine Living Network ("FLN"). Each of our networks is distributed by cable, telecommunications, and satellite distributors.
Interactive Services includes our online comparison shopping service, Shopzilla, and its related online comparison shopping brand, BizRate. Shopzilla and BizRate are product comparison shopping services that help consumers find products offered for sale on the Web by online retailers. Shopzilla and BizRate also operate a Web-based consumer feedback network which collects millions of consumer reviews of stores and products each year.
Our chief operating decision maker evaluates the operating performance of our business segments using a measure we call segment profit. Segment profit excludes interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, divested operating units, restructuring activities, investment results and certain other items that are included in net income determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Refer to Note 4 Non-GAAP Financial Measures, for reconciliations to GAAP measures.
Items excluded from segment profit generally result from decisions made in prior periods or from decisions made by corporate executives rather than the managers of the business segments. Depreciation and amortization charges are the result of decisions made in prior periods regarding the allocation of resources and are therefore excluded from the measure. Financing, tax structure and divestiture decisions are generally made by corporate executives. Excluding these items from our business segment performance measure enables us to evaluate business segment operating performance for the current period based upon current economic conditions and decisions made by the managers of those business segments in the current period.
Information regarding the operating performance of our business segments determined and reconciliation to our results of operations is as follows:
