Management Commentary
"The fourth quarter marked an exceptionally strong finish to a transformative year for SeaChange," said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Peter D. Aquino. "The team executed on improving our financial performance, growing the top line 19% year-over-year to $32.5 million, while effectively controlling costs and generating positive adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter and fiscal year. In addition, we reinvested in the business to support our growth and upgraded nearly a dozen Tier 1 video providers' video on demand and ad-insertion platforms, executing on preventive maintenance services to improve overall end user experiences. Moreover, we took our Xstream platform to a new level, generating nearly 15% of new product revenue in fiscal 2023. The new fiscal year marks an exciting new chapter for SeaChange, supported by solid fundamentals and strong tailwinds in the video Over-the-Top marketplace. We are very proud of our employees and expect to continue to add value to our customers' go-to-market video and ad-tech platforms."

Non-GAAP Measures

We define non-GAAP income (loss) from operations as GAAP net loss plus stock-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets, severance and restructuring costs, transaction costs, loss on impairment of goodwill, other expense, net, and income tax provision, and adjusted EBITDA as non-GAAP income (loss) from operations plus depreciation. We discuss non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and adjusted EBITDA, including on a per share basis, in our quarterly earnings releases and certain other communications, as we believe non-GAAP operating loss from operations and adjusted EBITDA are important measures that are not calculated according to GAAP. We use non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and adjusted EBITDA in internal forecasts and models when establishing internal operating budgets, supplementing the financial results and forecasts reported to our Board of Directors, determining a component of bonus compensation for executive officers and other key employees based on operating performance, and evaluating short-term and long-term operating trends in our operations. We believe that the non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and adjusted EBITDA financial measures assist in providing an enhanced understanding of our underlying operational measures to manage the business, to evaluate performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace, and to establish operational goals. We believe that the non-GAAP financial adjustments are useful to investors because they allow investors to evaluate the effectiveness of the methodology and information used by management in our financial and operational decision-making.

Non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. We expect to continue to incur expenses similar to the financial adjustments described above in arriving at non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and adjusted EBITDA and investors should not infer from our presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures that these costs are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. The following table includes the reconciliations of our GAAP loss from operations, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to our non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and adjusted EBITDA for the three months and fiscal years ended January 31, 2023, and 2022.
