Executive Summary The business delivered strong results in Q3, as all of our KPIs exceeded guidance. Our MAU performance remained solid, with net additions of 23 million surpassing guidance by 2 million. Subscriber net additions of 6 million were also ahead by 2 million. Revenue was better and grew 17% Y/Y on a constant currency* basis, reflecting ~300 bps of sequential acceleration vs. Q2'23. Gross Margin of 26.4% was also ahead of guidance and up 166 bps Y/Y. Operating Income of €32 million was better due to the higher Gross Margin, as well as lower than expected personnel and related costs and marketing spend. Free Cash Flow* was €216 million in the quarter. Overall, we are pleased with our performance in Q3, and view the business as well positioned to drive continued progress towards delivering against our Investor Day goals.
