Enjoy Technology Announces Second Quarter and First Half 2021 Financial Results

Accelerating Year-Over-Year Revenue Growth, Sequential Increases in Daily Revenue per Mobile Store and Expansion of Apple Partnership Provide Momentum on Path to Near-Term Profitability

PALO ALTO, Calif., Aug. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Enjoy Technology, Inc., (“Enjoy”), a technology-powered service platform reinventing “Commerce at Home,” today reported its financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2021. Enjoy’s financial results have been filed on a Form S-4 Amendment with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by Marquee Raine Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ: MRAC) (“Marquee Raine” or “MRAC” ) in connection with the previously announced business combination between Enjoy and MRAC. Highlights included:

 

• Revenue growth of 65% year-over-year during the second quarter, accelerating from the 47% year-over-year revenue growth rate reported in Q1 2021.
• Achieved a revenue per mobile store visit exit rate of $77 globally in Q2 2021, exceeding Enjoy’s full-year 2021 projection of $72 per visit. Continuing sequential increases in daily revenue per mobile store provide confidence in Enjoy’s continued growth plan and near-term path to profitability.
• Commenced strategic partnership expansion with Apple in July 2021 to five additional U.S. markets, more than doubling reach with Apple to cover 51 million total addressable consumers. Enjoy intends to provide further updates as the partnership continues to progress.
• Launched cross-partner selling of Apple services in August across all U.S. markets, providing a new revenue source as Enjoy accelerates its growth and profitability over the second half of 2021.
• Enjoy continues to scale rapidly to prepare for strong expected demand in the second half of 2021.
• Business combination with Marquee Raine expected to be completed in the late third quarter or early fourth quarter of 2021 (“Closing”).

“Our results demonstrate that we are building momentum as we continue to position Enjoy’s unique business model to meet strong demand for ‘Commerce at Home’ among customers and our business partners,” said Ron Johnson, CEO and Founder of Enjoy. “Despite the second quarter being our seasonally weakest quarter each year, we increased total revenue and improved key mobile store profitability metrics compared to the first quarter of 2021, giving us confidence in our path to near-term profitability.”

Mr. Johnson added, “We continue to make important progress on key strategic initiatives, including the expansion of our partnership with Apple, the recent launch of our cross-partner selling initiative across all of our U.S. markets and the expansion of our mobile store counts. We believe these initiatives will continue to drive revenue per mobile store and deliver increasing incremental value to our business partners. Despite the challenges presented by the Delta variant, we were able to go through the door on 49% of global visits in July 2021 and provide an immersive experience to customers. We continue to prioritize the safety of our Experts and customers and are working hard to secure enough Experts to meet the growing demand for Enjoy experiences. Enjoy is delivering solid results in line with our expectations, and we are confident that we are making the right investments in our business to drive even stronger performance in the second half of the year.”

Financial Update for the Second Quarter Ended June 30, 2021

• Generated global revenue of $20.9 million during the second quarter, an increase of 65% year-over-year, due to growth in demand in existing markets and expansion of a current business partner in North America to additional markets.
• Added 237 daily mobile stores versus the prior year, building scale in existing markets and supporting Enjoy’s expansion with strategic partners.
• Daily revenue per mobile store of $390 improved on the $371 recorded in Q1 2021. This represented an increase of $79, or 25%, compared to Q4 2020. Continued quarter-over-quarter improvements in this metric continue to be driven by greater revenue per visit.
• Q2 2020 mobile store results are not directly comparable to Q2 2021, as one-time supplemental revenue per visit from several of Enjoy’s business partners significantly inflated Q2 2020 daily revenue per mobile store while supporting Enjoy’s partners through a period of substantial retail store closures.
• In North America, revenue sequentially grew 11% in Q2 2021, and mobile store profit margins sequentially improved seven percentage points to (18)% in Q2 2021, compared to (25)% in Q1 2021.
• Reported a net loss of $56.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $(35.1) million for the second quarter, attributable to increases in technology investments and operating costs to support Enjoy’s increasing mobile store count.

Financial Update for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021

• Generated global revenues of $40.2 million for the first six months of 2021, an increase of 56% year-over-year.
• Daily revenue per mobile store of $380, compared to $373 for the year-ago period. Daily revenue per mobile store in the first six months of 2020 was significantly inflated by one-time supplemental revenue per visit intended to support Enjoy’s partners through a period of substantial retail store closures.
• Added 204 new mobile stores during the first half of 2021 compared to the year-ago period, for a global total of 584 mobile stores.
• In North America, first half 2021 revenue increased 63% year-over-year and North American mobile stores generated daily revenue of $417 per mobile store, outpacing previous targets. In Europe, 2021 first half revenue increased nearly 32%.
• Reported a net loss of $95.4 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $(69.2) million for the first half of 2021.

Recent Business Highlights

• Commenced strategic partnership expansion with Apple to five additional U.S. markets in July 2021: Greater Atlanta, Greater D.C./Baltimore, Greater Chicago, Greater Miami and Greater New York. Enjoy’s partnership with Apple now covers 51 million total addressable customers across the U.S. Enjoy intends to provide further updates as the partnership continues to progress.
• Enjoy launched cross-partner selling in all U.S. markets in August 2021, where Enjoy Experts can offer the services and subscriptions of one partner in customer visits sourced by another partner. This initiative presents potentially significant opportunities to drive incremental revenue for Enjoy and its business partners as Enjoy accelerates its growth and profitability over the second half of 2021.
• Announced the nominations of Denise Young Smith, who previously served as Apple’s chief human resources executive, and Salaam Coleman Smith, a senior media industry executive most recently with The Walt Disney Company, to join the post Closing company’s board of directors. Upon Closing, Enjoy’s board of directors will be diverse and high-qualified, with a range of experience across the retail, technology, entertainment and financial sectors.
• Appointed Tiffany Meriweather as Chief Legal Officer and Ettienne Brandt as Chief Commercial Officer to further build Enjoy’s legal and compliance function and strengthen global sales and customer experience capabilities.
• Held Enjoy’s first ever Virtual Analyst Day on June 24, 2021, to provide an in-depth overview of Enjoy’s strategy and mission to analysts and investors. Highlights of Enjoy’s Analyst Day are available at Enjoy.com/investors.

We appreciate the ongoing support of Marquee Raine and all of our investors, who share our belief that Enjoy has a groundbreaking opportunity to reinvent ‘Commerce at Home’ and pioneer the next disruptive channel in retail.
