The clearest bright spot was sequential momentum: revenue climbed 5% from the prior quarter, driven by newly added international devices and a pickup in App Growth Platform demand, offering some evidence that the company's prolonged top-line contraction may be stabilizing. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of $14.53 million rose 18% sequentially, though it remained well below the $26.96 million recorded a year ago, reflecting ongoing pressure from sluggish U.S. Handset upgrade rates. A $7.50 million tax valuation allowance adjustment contributed to a widened GAAP net loss of $25.16 million for the quarter. Management reaffirmed full-year fiscal 2025 guidance of $540 million to $560 million in revenue and $85 million to $95 million in adjusted EBITDA, citing growing operator interest in alternative direct app distribution as a catalyst for second-half improvement.

Key Takeaways

  • • Newly added international devices and higher average revenue-per-device drove 3% sequential growth in On Device Solutions
  • • Stronger demand for higher-performance Brand and Exchange offerings drove 11% sequential growth in App Growth Platform
  • • Continued expense discipline drove 135-basis point sequential EBITDA margin expansion
  • • Sluggish U.S. handset upgrade rates remain a headwind

“The first quarter marked an encouraging start to the new fiscal year, returning the Company to quarterly sequential growth in revenue and EBITDA. Despite continuing sluggish handset upgrade rates in the U.S., we grew our On Device Solutions revenue 3% sequentially largely on the strength of newly added international devices and higher average revenue-per-device. Our App Growth Platform revenue increased 11% sequentially, attributable to stronger demand for our higher-performance Brand and Exchange offerings. Top-line growth and continued expense discipline drove expansion in our profit margins, as evidenced by a 135-basis point sequential increase in our EBITDA margin during the quarter. We expect this top-line growth and margin expansion to continue in the second half of the calendar year, as we continue to see growing interest in, and real demand for, our uniquely-designed platform features amid the global market shift favoring more profitable alternative direct app distribution models. Having invested heavily in our people, processes and systems to optimize execution and future operating leverage, we believe that we are now well-positioned to help facilitate this market shift, and to more effectively capitalize on this promising opportunity for the Company in the coming years.”
