Quarter Ended September 30, 2021 NEW YORK, Nov. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ - Voyager Digital Ltd. ("Voyager" or the "Company") (TSX: VOYG) (OTCQX: VYGVF) (FRA: UCD2) one of the fastest-growing, publicly traded cryptocurrency platforms in the United States, today announced revenue and user metrics for the Fiscal 2022 First Quarter ended September 30, 2021.
"As we exit September and reflect on the growth of our platform, we're glad to report that our Company is stronger than ever," said Steve Ehrlich, CEO and Co-founder of Voyager. "Although the global crypto industry saw reduced volumes in the September quarter, our strategic decision to invest in customer acquisition and retention during that period has paid off as it resulted in a significant increase in downloads and a rise in the app rankings. That coupled with the volume uptick in the first half of the December quarter has Voyager well-positioned to exceed our June quarter record revenues in this quarter. If we look at our results on a calendar basis, we expect to exceed revenue of $360 million for the calendar year. We saw the September quarter as just a speed bump for the industry, experienced by other platforms as well, and Voyager has fared better than others on a comparative basis."
"The dedication to our marketing efforts in the quarter is paying off as Voyager has seen increased accounts and volume growth in October and November. We will continue to invest in customer acquisition, engagement and retention, led by our industry leading loyalty program," continued Ehrlich.
