Exhibit 99.1
Zedge Announces Third-Quarter Fiscal 2022 Results
Revenue growth of 19%; Net Income of $0.8 million;Adjusted EBITDA^1^ of $2.9 million
Closed transformational GuruShots acquisitionin mid-April
New York, NY – June 13, 2022: Zedge, Inc. (NYSE AMERICAN: ZDGE), a leader in building marketplaces and games around digital content that enable self-expression, today announced results for its third-quarter fiscal year 2022 ended April 30, 2022.
“The highlight of our third quarter was the transformational acquisition of GuruShots, ‘The World’s Greatest Photography Game,’ which closed on April 12,” said Jonathan Reich, chief executive officer. “We believe that GuruShots has the ability to materially accelerate revenue growth as a stand-alone asset, and if we are successful in realizing the abundant synergies from the acquisition, the potential is truly beyond exciting for the combined company.
“Looking at our financial performance, GuruShots’ revenue contribution was minimal this quarter in light of the timing of the closing and, as expected, it reported losses. Despite this, our consolidated Adjusted EBITDA grew faster than revenue and Zedge Premium’s Gross Transaction Value (GTV)^2^ increased by 63% on the heels of steadily increasing NFT sales in the marketplace.
“Additionally, we successfully navigated several headwinds during the quarter, many of which we believe are transitory in nature. These included MAU^2^ declines which impacted advertising and subscription revenue growth rates and active subscription^2^ numbers, as well as the push out of the introduction of important social and community features for the Zedge app, which we believe will stem the tide of declining MAU, especially in well-developed markets. On a positive note, we benefitted from the $2 million payment from AppLovin tied to our transition to its Max platform and are pleased to report that it is outperforming our previous vendor’s solution.”

Fiscal 2022 Commentary
“We remain cautiously optimistic about our fourth quarter as MAU trends have been moving in the right direction to date. We also expect a number of product enhancements to be released in June including most of the new social and community features for the Zedge app that were delayed by the AppLovin transition; new NFT features and capabilities, including adding wallpapers as a content category, adding audio functionality to video wallpaper NFTs and allowing numbered editions of up to 100 copies of the same NFT versus one today; and finally the launch of the new Emojipedia website, with localized support in five languages beyond English. Given the timing of these introductions, and the consolidation of a full quarter of GuruShots results, we are adjusting our revenue guidance for fiscal year 2022 to over 30% growth as we expect to realize the bulk of these benefits in fiscal 2023. Additionally, despite a full-quarter of GuruShots losses, we still expect to see growth in Adjusted EBITDA and cash flow from operations for fiscal 2022,” concluded Reich.

Use of Adjusted EBITDA as a Non-GAAP Measure
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock compensation expense, transaction-related expenses and other non-recurring expenses. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA into reported revenue. These metrics represent measures that we believe are customarily used by investors and analysts to evaluate the financial performance of companies in addition to the GAAP measures that we present. Our management also believes that these measures are useful in evaluating our core operating results. However, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are not measures of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and should not be considered an alternative to net income or operating income as an indicator of our operating performance or to net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.
