Forward Guidance

First quarter revenue is expected to be approximately $53M and adjusted EBITDA loss of approximately ($13M). NEXT launch remains on track for mid-year 2025.

Positive Outlook

  • Remain on track to deliver NEXT by mid-year 2025.
  • Expect year-over-year revenue growth in the first half of 2025 will be approximately flat.

  • The company improved resource allocation, leading to sustained productivity improvements and enabling it to deliver positive adjusted EBITDA and operating cash flow in Q4.
  • Ended the year with a strong cash position, and significant capital flexibility.

Challenges Ahead

  • First, our revenue outlook reflects initial reductions in ad impression supply tied to our NEXT initiative roll out.
  • Observed reduced spending among certain large advertisers as we’ve progressed through the quarter, partly tied to large advertisers shifting budgets toward programmatic ad buying.
  • Expect Q1 revenue of approximately $53M.
  • Expect Q1 adjusted EBITDA loss of approximately ($13M).
  • The company is embracing changes that will affect guidance.
