. Comments from Ezra Rosensaft, Chief Executive Officer 
"IDW continued to progress financially and operationally during the second quarter highlighted by a return to profitability even as we ramped up our investment in exciting long-term growth opportunities.

"IDW Publishing achieved solid year over year revenue growth reflecting sustained execution on its strategic priorities including continuing genre expansion, leveraging high yield opportunities in the ecommerce space, as well as the resurgence of direct market sales, leading with chart-topping comic releases and increased in-person foot traffic in local comic shops.

"At IDW Entertainment Locke & Key seasons 2 and 3, greenlit by Netflix, are making progress on their respective production paths as COVID pandemic restrictions ease. Netflix plans to premiere season 2 in October. We are also excited about other projects that we are working to bring to market.

"Finally, we are working toward registering our securities with the SEC in preparation for our planned uplist to a national exchange. Our uplist is on track for completion this summer."

Financial Take-Aways

  • Revenue:
    • IIDW Publishing ("IDWP"): Direct market recovery drove publishing revenue growth, led by titles from high profile properties - both original and licensed - including Locke & Key/The Sandman Universe crossover, Sonic the Hedgehog, X-Men, and TMNT. Sales to major retailers contributed nearly half of IDWP revenue. Sales through other brick-and-mortar retailers contributed a smaller but growing share of IDWP sales.
    • IDW Entertainment (IDWE): Revenue was generated by the finalization of credits for production of V-Wars and October Faction from the Canadian Revenue Agency (CRA) and the delivery of final episodes of Wynonna Earp, Season 4.
  • (Loss) Income from Operations:
    • IDWP: The quarter's loss was primarily attributable to non-routine factors including a write-down of capitalized expenses related to tabletops games, a line of business from which IDWP has exited, and severance expense as well as increased personnel expense.
    • IDWE: Income from operations decreased due to the amortization of production expenses for episodes of Wynonna Earp Season 4 episodes delivered during the quarter.
  • CTM Media: CTM Media's results were reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The CTM sale was consummated on February 15, 2021, which was reflected this quarter as a gain on the sale of discontinued operations.
  • Balance Sheet Highlights: At April 30, 2021, IDW's cash balance was $7.6 million. Working capital (current assets less current liabilities) totaled $13.1 million.
