Fourth quarter total revenue growth of 14%
Fourth quarter Zedge Marketplace subscription revenue grew 31%
Fourth quarter Zedge Marketplace ARPMAU1 increased 43%
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / October 29, 2024 / Zedge, Inc. (NYSE AMERICAN:ZDGE), a leader in digital marketplaces and interactive games that provides content, enables creativity, empowers self-expression and facilitates community, today announced results for its fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2024, ended July 31, 2024.
Jonathan Reich, Zedge's CEO, commented, "We concluded the year with strong momentum, achieving 14% overall company revenue growth in the fourth quarter, including impressive Zedge Marketplace subscription revenue growth of 31%, Zedge Premium Gross Transaction Value (GTV)1 growth of 56% and ARPMAU growth of 43%.
"In fiscal 2024, we drove double-digit revenue growth and strong cash flow from operations, even while repositioning GuruShots for success. In addition to our relentlessly optimizing our ad stack, our focus on innovation by developing, enhancing and launching new features and embracing Gen AI across our core products and operations, is yielding positive results, as demonstrated by the growth in subscription revenue and the increased use of pAInt. Taken together these actions helped us close the year with a more than 10% increase in our cash reserves, even after paying off our $2 million term loan balance and repurchasing over $600,000 in common stock. These efforts also contributed to our stock's 71% gain during fiscal 2024, leading to ZDGE's inclusion in the Russell Microcap Index."

Fiscal 2025 Outlook
Reich continued, "In FY'25, we're building on the solid foundation laid in FY'24 by investing in growth and scaling across all business areas. A key focus at the Company level is the continued infusion of generative AI throughout our product portfolio enhancing the user experience with innovative technology and features. Our recent introduction of pAInt 2.0 is a great example. In September, we expanded pAInt's capabilities beyond text-to-image wallpaper creation along with filters, photo editing, avatar and/or sticker creation and rendering output in any size - not phone wallpapers alone. These capabilities make our offering relevant to a wider target audience.
"Our primary goal for the Zedge Marketplace this year is to convert our users from consumers of content into creators. This transformation is critical in helping us increase our penetration as a critical platform in the Creator Economy. Looking forward to what's next, we're already exploiting the recent introduction of pAInt 2.0 and are hard at work on introducing AI audio capabilities in the next several months. Audio is an exciting advancement that we believe can drive more users to our platform and create greater engagement from existing users.
"However, product enhancements and new feature releases are only part of the story. Over the past year, we built a world-class marketing team that has successfully acquired users with attractive ROAS profiles, particularly in well-developed economies, while also contributing to our hockey stick-like growth on the iOS platform in FY'24. This team is a key asset in helping us drive growth in conjunction with product innovations.
"We're also excited about the upcoming expansion of Emojipedia's 'Emoji Playground,' which debuted last year with emoji mashups and quizzes. This year, we expect to add new features, including AI-driven emoji and digital sticker creation. These new features and enhancements, combined with plans to revamp the Emojipedia website, are expected to drive higher engagement, elevate the user experience and further reinforce Emojipedia's position as the 'go-to' platform for emoji enthusiasts.
"Reversing losses and resuming growth at GuruShots are our top priorities for GuruShots. To accomplish this, our strategy has shifted, prioritizing new user growth away from legacy players. The path forward is clear from the changes we made to the game and the roadmap that we have planned for in this fiscal year. To date we have introduced a robust onboarding experience to ease more users into the game, adopted a coin-based in-game economy and more recently launched Missions, a recognized gamification technique for driving engagement and improving retention by rewarding players for accomplishing specific goals. These actions are already yielding early returns, and we believe we are on the right track for accomplishing our goals. Looking beyond Missions, we're targeting the release of a new competitive capability, player-vs-player (PvP), in time for the year-end holiday season.
"Finally, introducing new products remains a high priority for our long-term strategy. With promising projects like Wishcraft and AI Art Master in beta and more in the pipeline, we're centralizing our development platform in order to foster rapid iteration and efficient product rollouts, enabling us to make key decisions quickly - doubling down on initiatives that show promise while pulling back from ones that aren't performing well. This approach positions us to deliver new hits-whether incremental successes or major breakthroughs-that will drive sustained growth for Zedge.
"We're proud of our progress in FY'24 and believe there is lots more to come. As we continue to evolve our business for sustainable long-term growth, we're committed to smart capital allocation strategies, including share repurchases, that will drive long-term shareholder value."

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.
