As Seen On TV, Inc. Reports Record Third Quarter Revenues

CLEARWATER, FL — (Marketwire) — 02/22/13 — As Seen On TV, Inc. (OTCQB: ASTV), the parent company of TV Goods, Inc., a direct response marketing company, is pleased to report that it has filed its 10-Q for its third quarter, ended December 31, 2012. The results demonstrate the Company-s commercialization ramp as the company continues to execute on its growth strategy. The Company believes it has successfully developed a platform and is monetizing unique products through a variety of direct-to-consumer channels including direct response television, television shopping networks, retail outlets, and e-commerce marketplaces.

For the third quarter of the fiscal year 2012, revenues reached a record $5.8 million, a 124 percent increase from $2.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2011. Gross profit margin of 52 percent was realized in the third quarter, up from 46 percent a year earlier. The loss from operations for the third quarter decreased to $906,820 in the third quarter of fiscal year 2012 from $1.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2011. The decrease in loss from operations was primarily due to the introduction and ramp up of media spending on product lines. Due principally to the non-cash warrant revaluation expense of $13.5 million, the Company-s net income for the third quarter decreased to a $15.1 million loss, from a gain of $2.25 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2011. The resulting loss per share was ($0.38), as compared to a $0.09 gain a year earlier.

For the first nine months of fiscal year 2012 ended December 31, 2012, revenues were $6.9 million, a 105 percent increase from $3.4 million in the first nine months of fiscal year 2011. Gross profit margin of 44 percent was realized in the first nine months ended December 31, 2012, up from 43 percent a year earlier. The loss from operations for the first nine months of $3.4 million was basically the same as the loss for the first nine months of fiscal 2011. The net loss for the first nine months increased to $13.7 million from a loss of $10.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2011. The increase in the net loss was principally attributed to a non-cash warrant revaluation of $8.7 million. The loss per share was ($.39), as compared to ($.62) a year earlier.

The past few months have been very active for As Seen On TV, Inc. as it has taken the necessary steps to attract significant capital and implement its growth strategy. The Company believes all these steps have positioned it to succeed over the upcoming years. The Company has broadened its ability to identify, advise in development and market consumer products. Pipelines for new products continue to strengthen, as the Company is continually sought after for product development and television marketing partnerships.

As previously announced, on October 31, 2012, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger to acquire eDiets.com, Inc. in a stock for stock transaction. The terms of the Agreement provide for the issuance of 19,077,252 shares of As Seen On TV common stock in exchange for 100% of the outstanding shares. The closing of the transaction is subject to a number of conditions and continues to progress accordingly. The eDiets shareholder meeting called to approve the merger is scheduled for February 27, 2013.
