In the news release, "Spark Networks(R) Reports Second Quarter 2017 Results," issued August 7, 2017 by Spark Networks, Inc. (NYSE American: LOV), we are advised by the company that, due to a production error, the previously furnished press release contained incorrect information for ARPU metrics within the tables presenting Segment Results From Operations and Key Quarterly Metrics. This press release corrects ARPU metrics within these tables.
LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / August 8, 2017 / Spark Networks, Inc. (NYSE American: LOV) today reported results for the second quarter of 2017.
"With our recent relaunch of JDate on our new technology platform we reached a major strategic milestone, and are well on our way toward completing the launch of Christian Mingle later this quarter," said Danny Rosenthal, Chief Executive Officer of Spark Networks. "We expect that the release of the new platform will quickly translate into operational cost savings and increased marketing efficiency and effectiveness."
"In Q2, we saw our second consecutive quarter of revenue stability within the Jewish Networks. These results, when combined with our new platform, position us to make the data-driven marketing investments necessary to drive future growth and value creation."
As previously announced on May 2, 2017, Spark Networks, Inc. entered into a definitive agreement with Affinitas GmbH ("EliteSingles"), which operates premium online dating platforms EliteSingles, eDarling and Attractive World to combine in a stock-for-stock merger. Spark continues to expect the transaction to close in the fourth quarter of 2017, subject to Spark shareholder approval and the satisfaction of certain other customary closing conditions.
In light of the pending merger, Spark will not host a conference call to review its second quarter 2017 results.

Second Quarter 2017 Financial Results
Revenue: For the second quarter of 2017, total revenue was $6.6 million, a decrease of 27% compared to the year ago period, and a 9% decrease from the prior quarter. The year over year and sequential decreases were primarily driven by a decrease in average paying subscribers, reflecting reduced direct marketing investment in the Jewish and Christian Networks. These decreases were partially offset by year over year and sequential increases in ARPU of 22% and 4%, respectively.
Contribution: Contribution was $6.0 million in the quarter, a decrease of 22% compared to the year ago period, and a 2% increase from the prior quarter. Our contribution margin increased to 90% from 80% in the prior quarter and increased from 84% in the year ago period. Total direct marketing expenses decreased 53% to $690,000 in the second quarter of 2017 as compared to $1.5 million in the prior year period.
Net Loss: Net Loss was $(2.5) million in the quarter, compared to Net Income of $329,000 in the year ago period and a Net Loss of $(2.1) million in the prior quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA: For the second quarter of 2017, Adjusted EBITDA was $1.2 million, a decrease of $(283,000) versus the year ago period and an increase of $1.0 million from the prior quarter.
Cash: Cash used in operating activities in the second quarter was $440,000. At June 30, 2017, the Company had $9.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared to $10.8 million at the end of the prior quarter. At quarter end, the Company had no outstanding debt.

All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements.

1"Contribution" is defined as revenue, net of credits and credit card chargebacks, less direct marketing.
2The Company reports Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). This non-GAAP measure is one of the primary metrics by which we evaluate the performance of our businesses, budget, forecast and compensate management. We believe this measure provides management and investors with a consistent view, period to period, of the core earnings generated from on-going operations and excludes the impact of: (i) non-cash items such as stock-based compensation, asset impairments, non-cash currency translation adjustments related to an inter-company loan and (ii) one-time items that have not occurred in the past two years and are not expected to recur in the next two years. Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as a substitute for net income (loss) (as determined in accordance with GAAP) for the purpose of analyzing our operating performance or financial position, as Adjusted EBITDA is not defined by GAAP. A reconciliation of the Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 can be found in the table below.
"Adjusted EBITDA" is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, impairment of intangible and long-lived assets, non-cash currency translation adjustments for an inter-company loan and non-recurring legal and acquisition costs.
3"Paying Subscribers" are defined as individuals who have paid a monthly fee for access to communication and website features beyond those provided to our members. Period ending subscribers for each quarter represent the paying subscriber count as of the last day of the period. Average paying subscribers for each month are calculated as the sum of the paying subscribers at the beginning and end of the month, divided by two. Average paying subscribers for periods longer than one month are calculated as the sum of the average paying subscribers for each month, divided by the number of months in such period. The calculation excludes results from the Company's HurryDate business due to its relative size.
4In accordance with Segment Reporting guidance, the Company's financial reporting includes detailed data on four separate operating segments. The Jewish Networks segment consists of JDate, JDate.co.il, JDate.fr, JDate.co.uk, and JSwipe. The Christian Networks segment consists of ChristianMingle, CrossPaths, ChristianMingle.co.uk, ChristianMingle.com.au, Believe.com, and Faith.com. The Other Networks segment consists of LDSSingles.com and related other general market websites as well as other properties which are primarily composed of sites targeted towards various religious, ethnic, geographic and special interest groups. The Offline & Other Businesses segment consists of revenue generated from offline activities and HurryDate events and subscriptions.
5ARPU is defined as average revenue per user per month. Total ARPU excludes results from the Company's HurryDate business due to its relative size.
6One month plans may also include a small amount of two month plans. Three month plans may include a small amount of four month plans. Six month plans may include a small amount of twelve month plans.
7Represents the composition of average paying subscribers in the period. First Time Subscribers are defined as those subscribers that have never purchased a subscription from the Company for that reporting segment. Winback Subscribers are defined as those individuals who have purchased a subscription from the Company for that reporting segment, allowed their subscription to lapse, and subsequently purchased a subscription from the Company for that reporting segment.
