LeapFrog Products

Recent News  Leapfrog has won over 80 awards from the Parent’s Choice Foundation  As of 2013 – The new management team has shifted their emphasis from toy development to educational entertainment  Leapfrog has sold more than 100 million books, over 100 million educational toys and over 55 million tablet and gaming platforms.

Transition Period Toy Development Educational Entertainment Transition by Management Changes the target market from infant to grade-schooler Addition rather then a substitute to current product line

2013 Outlook  New product launches include:  Learn-to-read system  iPhone and iPad apps  New version of LeapPad tablet  Global distribution networks  Including 4 interactive languages  Growth Strategy: long term investments in content, international expansion, online communities, systems, and new platforms

 Utilize FIFO inventory recognition  Emerville, California – Headquarters and Operations  Type of possession: Lease  Fontana, California – Distribution Center  Type of possession: Lease  Income tax benefits  2012 – ($24,504,000) & 2011 – ($1,137,000)  Due to the recognition of previously unrecognized tax carryforwards Accounting

Manufacturing  Designed to maximize the use of outsourced services  With respect to physical production and distribution  Highly seasonal business  Manufacturers are located in Asia, primarily in China  Top three vendors supplied 73%, 65%, and 57% of LeapFrog’s products in 2012, 2011, and 2010 respectively  Largest manufacturers are: Wynnewood Corp. Ltd. & WKK Technology Limited  They are billed by manufacturers in US dollars

Operations  Develop products primarily in the United States  Marketing efforts are centered on North America  Lesser extent to Europe and the rest of the world  Foreign currency transactions are hedged through short term futures contracts

EBIT Breakdown by Region However, his does not explain the entire picture

LeapFrog k Report  EBIT in terms of United States has grown exponentially since 2010  A similar expansion strategy into the foreign market place would lead to enormous economies of scale United States Foreign Figures are in thousands

Domestic Sales  The big three US retailers: Wal-Mart, Toys “R” Us, and Target have historically accounted for a substantial portion of gross sales

Equity Snapshot  Stock Price: $8.33  Beta: 1.26  TTM P/E: 6.72  Forward P/E:  PEG Ratio (5 year): 0.67  Price/Book: 1.76 Source:

Industry Overview Hasbro Inc. Mattel Inc. Source

Porters 5 Force Analysis  Bargaining Power of Buyers: Moderate  Evidence: high profit margins exist  Niche market, little direct competiton  Bargaining Power of Suppliers: Moderate  Computer components and assembly have become commodities  Competitive advantage lies in the programming, not the physical interface  They have 3 main manufacturers  Threat of New Substitutes: High  Classic teaching methods still dominate the educational market  Apple and Samsung tablets can offer “learning” apps that mimic those offered by Leapfrog.

5 Force Analysis Continued  Competitive Rivalry within the Industry: Moderate  There is no definitive market dominance  Educational Technology for individual users is a relatively new industry (use of the “pad”)  Threat of New Entrants: High  App market is vast and easy to gain market presence  Brand loyalty has yet to be established – users “children” unable to recognize the difference between a Leapfrog product and an Apple Product.

Macroeconomic Condition Consumer confidence has shown slow signs of improvement Source:

SPDR – XLY Performance  Consumer Discretionary Select Sector  Consistent growth in discretionary spending over the 2y Source:

th Quarter Highlights Highlights of full year 2012 results compared to full year 2011 results:  Consolidated net sales were up 28%.  U.S. segment net sales were up 24%, and international segment net sales were up 38%.  Income from operations was up 170%.  Income from operations as a percentage of net sales was 11.0%, more than double the prior year.  Net income was $86.5 million, up 334%.  Adjusted EBITDA was $93.1 million, up 89%.  Cash and cash equivalents were $120.0 million as of December 31, 2012, up 67% compared to the balance as of December 31, 2011.

WHAT is Bringing in the Money?  According to management (2012 Annual Report):  -”LeapPad” – one of the generally more expensive items.  -“App” sales for iPhone and iPad  In general, sales are increasing for the technology products, however the less technology intensive projects have greater margins.

Revenue/Cost Tradeoffs  Overall Retail Inventory Levels have increased since 2010  Sales increased by 5% while Cost of Goods increased by 6% (as a reflection of the proportionally higher sales of higher cost platforms “pads”)  Decreased Marketing expenditures to offset increased COGS (of technology products) and Operating expenditures.
