14% total revenue growth and 35% subscription revenue growth
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / June 10, 2024 / Zedge, Inc. (NYSE American:ZDGE), a leader in building digital marketplaces and friendly competitive games around content that people use to express themselves, today announced results for its third quarter of fiscal 2024, ended April 30, 2024.
"Revenue growth accelerated from last quarter as advertising and subscription revenue showed strong growth across Zedge Marketplace's Android and iOS offerings," said Jonathan Reich, Zedge's chief executive officer. "I'm especially encouraged that we followed up record quarterly revenue in Q2 with record Q3 revenue and that we did not see the customary post-holiday hangover. Our work to optimize our advertising stack continues to pay off, and iOS subscription revenue was up more than 11% sequentially. When combined with record Zedge Premium Gross Transaction Value1, which was up more than 44% from last year, we achieved record ARPMAU1with 40% year-over-year growth."
Third Quarter Highlights (fiscal 2024 versus fiscal 2023)
- Revenue increased 13.8% to $7.7 million;
- GAAP operating loss of ($0.1) million, compared to ($8.4) million;
- GAAP operating loss for the third quarter of 2023 included an $8.7 million non-cash write-down of goodwill;
- GAAP net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share were $0.1 million and $0.01 compared to ($7.7) million and ($0.55), respectively, including the impact of the writedown in 2023:
- Non-GAAP net income2 and EPS2 were $0.5 million and $0.03 compared to $0.3 million and $0.02, respectively;
- Adjusted EBITDA2 of $0.9 million;
- Zedge Premium Gross Transaction Value1, or GTV,increased 44.4% to $0.59 million.

Fiscal 2024 Commentary
Reich continued, "We believe we are still in the early stages of benefiting from the organizational and product changes we made in recent quarters in order to drive sustainable, profitable, long-term revenue growth. As we move forward, we expect to continue to test and optimize our paid and organic user acquisition strategies, in conjunction with introducing new features and content for existing products while innovating to bring new products to market.
"For the Zedge Marketplace, we are continuing to optimize our paid user acquisition investments for accelerating growth in both advertising and subscriptions. iOS remains a key focus here, and despite the hockey stick growth we are seeing, we remain diligent in finding ways to tap the significant potential of this market. For Emojipedia, we have a roadmap of new features and services that we plan to roll out over the next 12 months, including emoji mashups, emoji-based mini-games and other user enhancements that we believe will drive new users, increase engagement and enable monetization growth.
"GuruShots remains in transition, but I'm feeling optimistic about our initial progress and current roadmap for returning the game to growth. We recently began beta testing a fully redesigned onboarding flow in the Android app with the goal of both improving engagement and retention, as well as expanding our target market to attract a wider set of potential players. Additionally, we are introducing a new, coin-based economy in June. By transitioning to a coin-based economy with multiple virtual currencies, we can better reward all players in a controlled, bespoke manner to encourage higher engagement and in-app purchases. We believe the cumulative impact of these changes will play a key role in returning GuruShots to growth in the quarters to come.
"Overall, I'm optimistic that we are headed in the right direction across our product portfolio and believe that we will finish 2024 with strong momentum heading into fiscal 2025."
1 We use the following business metrics in this release because we believe they are useful in evaluating Zedge's operational performance.
- Monthly active users, or MAU, captures the number of unique users that used our Zedge App during the previous 30 days of the relevant period, is useful for evaluating consumer engagement with our App, which correlates to advertising revenue as more users drive more ad impressions for sale. It also allows readers and potential advertisers to evaluate the size of our user base.
- Zedge Premium Gross Transaction Value, or GTV, is the total dollar amount of transactions conducted through Zedge Premium. As Zedge Premium is an internal focus for growth, we believe this metric will help investors evaluate our progress in growing this part of our business.
- Average Revenue Per Monthly Active User for our Zedge App, or ARPMAU, is useful in evaluating how well we monetize our user base.
- An Active Subscription is a subscription that has commenced and not been canceled, including paused subscriptions and subscriptions in free trials, grace periods, or account hold. This is important because it is a source of recurring revenue.
- Total Installs - Cumulative measures the number of times the Zedge App has been downloaded since inception.
2 Throughout this release, Non-GAAP Net Income, Non-GAAP EPS and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures intended to provide useful information that supplement Zedge's results in accordance with GAAP. Please refer to the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial measures at the end of this release for an explanation of Zedge's formulations of Non-GAAP Net Income, Non-GAAP EPS and Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
Adjusted EBITDA, defined as earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock compensation expense, transaction-related expenses and other non-recurring expenses, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and non-GAAP net income and EPS (which adjust out stock compensation expense, transaction-related expenses and other non-recurring expenses from GAAP net income and EPS), represent measures that we believe are customarily used by investors and analysts to evaluate the financial performance of companies in addition to the GAAP measures we present. Our management also believes these measures are useful in evaluating our core operating results. However, these are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income or operating income/margin as an indicator of our operating performance or to net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.
