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.
