Softer than expected revenue and adj. EBITDA. Fiscal Q2 revenue of $369.0 million was below our $402.1 million estimate and down from $394.0 million a year earlier. The largest revenue variance appeared to be attributable to the lack of arcade inventory in its gaming division due to the bankruptcy of one of its vendors. Adj. EBITDA of $18.1 million was below our $25.3 million estimate, as a result of higher than expected costs in its licensing business.
Maintains strong margin dynamics. The company maintained strong gross margins at 12.8%, a 210 basis point improvement year over year, but down from our 16.2% estimate. The gross margin was surprisingly solid when considering the significant revenue shortfall. Margins benefited from favorable product mix, structural improvement and cost discipline. In addition, adj. EBITDA margins improved year over year as well (5.0% vs 4.1%).
