FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Travelzoo Reports Third Quarter 2026 Results
NEW YORK, October 27, 2026 — Travelzoo® (NASDAQ: TZOO):
•Revenue of $22.9 million, up 3% year-over-year
•Consolidated operating loss of $2.6 million
•Non-GAAP consolidated operating loss of $2.1 million
•Cash flow from operations of $1.8 million
•Earnings per share (EPS) of $(0.20)
•Club Members up 65% year-over-year
Travelzoo, the club for travel enthusiasts, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026. Consolidated revenue was $22.9 million, up 3% from $22.2 million year-over-year. In constant currencies, revenue was $23.0 million. Travelzoo's reported revenue consists of advertising revenues and commissions, derived from and generated in connection with purchases made by Travelzoo members, and membership fees.
In Q3, we continued to invest significantly in growing Club Members and accelerated the shift towards membership fees revenue. Marketing costs were expensed immediately. Membership fees revenue is recognized ratably over the subscription period of 12 months. Going forward, we expect new and recurring membership fees revenue from a growing base of members. We refer to our investor presentation.
Net Loss attributable to Travelzoo was $2.0 million for Q3 2026, or $(0.20) per share, compared with $0.01 per share in the prior-year period.
1/10
Non-GAAP operating loss was $2.1 million. Non-GAAP operating loss excludes stock option expenses ($338,000) and severance expense ($150,000). Please refer to “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the tabular reconciliation below.
“We will continue to leverage Travelzoo's global reach, trusted brand, and strong relationships with top travel suppliers to negotiate more Club Offers for Club Members and add new benefits, such as our popular complimentary airport lounge access worldwide in case of a delayed flight,” said Holger Bartel, Travelzoo's Global CEO. “Travelzoo members are affluent, active, and open to new experiences. We inspire travel enthusiasts to travel to places they never imagined they could. Travelzoo is the must-have membership for those who love to travel as much as we do."
Travelzoo North America
North America business segment revenue increased 4% year-over-year to $14.8 million. Operating loss for Q3 2026 was $1.4 million, or 9% of revenue, compared to operating profit of $1.1 million or 8% of revenue in the prior-year period.
Travelzoo Europe
Europe business segment revenue increased 5% year-over-year to $6.9 million. Operating loss for Q3 2026 was $1.2 million, or 18% of revenue, compared to operating loss of $0.6 million, or 10% of revenue in the prior-year period.
Jack’s Flight Club
Jack’s Flight Club is a membership subscription service in which Travelzoo has a 60% ownership interest. Revenue decreased 15% year-over-year to $1.2 million. Jack’s Flight Club’s revenue from subscriptions is recognized ratably over the subscription period (quarterly, semi-annually, annually). Operating profit for Q3 2026 was $34,000, compared to operating profit of $20,000 in the prior-year period.
New Initiatives
New Initiatives business segment revenue, which includes Licensing and Travelzoo META, was $27,000. Operating loss for Q3 2026 was $3,000.
In 2020, Travelzoo entered into royalty-bearing licensing agreements with local licensees for the exclusive use of Travelzoo’s brand, business model, and members in Australia, Japan, New Zealand, and Singapore. Under these arrangements, Travelzoo’s existing members in Australia, Japan, New Zealand, and Singapore will continue to be owned by Travelzoo as the licensor. Licensing revenue from
2/10
the licensee in Australia was $11,000 for Q3 2026. Licensing revenue from the licensee in Japan was $5,000 for Q3 2026. Licensing revenue is expected to increase going forward.
Reach
Travelzoo reaches 30 million travelers. This includes Jack's Flight Club. Comparisons to prior periods are no longer meaningful due to strategic developments of the Travelzoo membership.
In 2024, we introduced a membership fee for Travelzoo. Legacy Members, who joined prior to 2024,
continue to receive certain travel offers. However, Club Offers and new benefits are only available to
Club Members, who pay the membership fee. Therefore, we are seeing many Legacy Members
become Club Members over time—in addition to new members who join. In Q3, the number of Club
Members increased by 65% year-over-year.
Income Taxes
The reported income tax benefit for Q3 2026 was $436,000.
Balance Sheet
As of September 30, 2026, cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash were $8.8 million. Cash flow from operations was $1.8 million.
Deferred revenue increased because membership fees are earned over the subscription period. Membership fees revenue is recognized ratably over the subscription period.
Share Repurchase Program
During Q3 2026, the Company repurchased 256,898 shares of its outstanding common stock.
Looking Ahead
For Q4 2026, we expect year-over-year revenue growth. We also expect revenue growth in subsequent quarters, as membership fees revenue is recognized ratably over the subscription period of 12 months, as we grow Club Members, and as more Legacy Members become Club Members. Over time, we expect profitability to increase as recurring membership fees revenue will be recognized. In the short-term, fluctuations in reported net income are likely.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management calculates non-GAAP operating income when evaluating the financial performance of the business. Calculation of non-GAAP operating income, also called “non-GAAP operating profit” in this
3/10
press release and today’s earnings conference call, excludes the following items: amortization of intangibles, stock option expenses, and severance-related expenses. This press release includes a table which reconciles GAAP operating income to the calculation of non-GAAP operating income. Non-GAAP operating income is not required by, or presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). This information should be considered as supplemental in nature and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

5 | Third Quarter 2026 Performance The quarterly loss came from higher investments into growing the number of Club Members. Higher membership revenues are a more attractive business model. Objectives and Actions • Accelerate the growth in (paying) Club Members • Increase recurring membership revenues— a more attractive business model • Enhance the value of club membership 2.3 4.7 5.8 Average Q2 2025 thru Q1 2026 Q2 2026 Q3 2026 Quarterly Spend on Marketing* $ millions * Direct acquisition costs for new Club Members and trial members

7 | Third Quarter 2026 Performance As a reminder, with subscription businesses, membership fees revenue is recognized ratably over the subscription period, whereas acquisition costs are expensed immediately. Example: New member joins on September 15, 2026, paying a membership fee of $50 per annum Revenue Recognition $ Q3 2026 Q4 2026 Q1 2027 Q2 2027 Q3 2027 $50 $2.08 $12.50 $12.50 $12.50 $10.42 Payment by member Revenue recognized Revenue recognized
8 | Third Quarter 2026 Performance Thus, marketing costs reduce reported EPS in the short-term but are projected to drive better results in 2027 and beyond when deferred revenues and recurring revenues increase profitability. * Travelzoo Club Membership revenue only.

9 | Third Quarter 2026 Performance Even though we invested even more than in Q2 and acquired more members, the average acquisition cost was lower (better) in Q3. Payback remains attractive. * Most new Club Members start with a trial. Acquisition cost here is presented for Club Members who paid the annual fee—after trial conversion. ** New members on a trial pay $1 for the first 30 days, so the payment of the $50 annual membership in the U.S. only occurs 30 days after the start of the trial. Payback on member acquisition is positive within a quarter,** even though revenue recognition is delayed Average Acquisition Cost of Annual Club Members* Q3 2026, U.S. market $ Revenue from trans- actions within 90 days 1st year annual member- ship fee $50 Future revenue from trans- actions and advertising Future member- ship fees (from recurring renewals) $15 ($40) Q3 2025 ($54) Q4 2025 ($34) Q2 2026 Payback from Club Members Acquired in the Quarter and Future Periods Q3 2026, U.S. market $ ($27) Q1 2026 ($62) Q3 2026 Total payback
