~ Delivers Sequential Revenue Growth of 27% to $22.5 Million ~

~ Introduces New KPI, Average Revenue Per User (ARPU), Up 19% Over First Quarter ~

LONGBOAT KEY, Fla., Aug. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rumble Inc. (NASDAQ:RUM) ("Rumble" or the "Company"), the video-sharing platform and cloud services provider, today announced financial results for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Q2 2024 Key Highlights and Key Items

Revenue for the second quarter was $22.5 million, a sequential increase of 27% from $17.7 million in the first quarter of 2024 and compared to $25.0 million in the second quarter of 2023.
Average global Monthly Active Users ("MAUs") of 53 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to 50 million in the first quarter of 2024. This represents the tenth consecutive quarter above 40 million average global MAUs on the platform. We believe that the increase from the first quarter of 2024 is attributable to an increased interest in political news in the second quarter of 2024. Of the 53 million MAUs, 37 million were based in the U.S. and Canada.
Set a new record for concurrent live stream viewers in America on the Rumble platform during the debate between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump on June 27, 2024. According to Streams Charts, a third-party streaming analytics firm, Rumble hit a peak of 718,909 concurrent live viewers, a record for the platform.
As previously discussed, given Rumble's increasing focus on monetization of its user base, the Company introduced a new key business metric, Average Revenue Per User ("ARPU"), that we believe better reflects the focus of our management team. ARPU for the second quarter was $0.37, an increase of 19% from the first quarter of 2024, and is attributable to higher sponsorship revenue. With the introduction of ARPU, the second quarter of 2024 is the last quarter for which Rumble plans to report estimated average Minutes Watched Per Month ("MWPM") and hours of uploaded video per day.
Estimated MWPM were 8.5 billion in the second quarter of 2024, compared to 8.6 billion in the first quarter of 2024, due to our bandwidth consumption moving from third-party service providers' CDNs to our own proprietary CDN, offset by an increased interest in political news in the second quarter of 2024.
Hours of uploaded video per day increased 1% to 13,342 in the second quarter of 2024, compared to 13,229 in the second quarter of 2023, and were up 7% compared to the first quarter of 2024. We believe this increase is attributable to an increased interest in political news in the second quarter of 2024.
Announced that PublicSquare, America's leading commerce and payments ecosystem that values freedom and supports the parallel economy, intends to migrate its PublicSquare Marketplace segment to the Rumble Cloud platform.
On May 13, 2024, Rumble filed a second antitrust lawsuit against Google based on Google's monopolization of the online advertising market, with alleged damages in excess of $1 billion (before trebling). This lawsuit is separate and distinct from the self-preferencing lawsuit that was filed in January 2021, which remains in discovery with a trial scheduled for May 2025.
Continued to progress the Rumble platform with the release of watch history and playlists across all mobile and TV apps, in addition to the initial launch of Rumble Premium subscription service on the mobile apps.
As of June 30, 2024, Rumble's balance of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities was approximately $154.2 million.

Subsequent Events

Today, Rumble Cloud announced a partnership with the Miami Dolphins and Hard Rock Stadium, marking a major milestone for Rumble Cloud by onboarding one of the NFL's premier franchises.
Rumble joined the social media platform X to file lawsuits alleging a conspiracy to withhold advertising revenue from Rumble and other digital media platforms. In its filing in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Rumble named as defendants the World Federation of Advertisers, as well as the advertising agency WPP and its subsidiary GroupM Worldwide.
Following the successful launch of 1775 Coffee, which as of July 15, 2024 achieved annualized run rate sales exceeding $1 million, the Company announced partnerships that established three additional exclusive Rumble-branded products: Pawsitive, Be Naked and 5G Free. Rumble has successfully partnered with brands to expand exposure to alternative monetization sources that generate immediate revenue and cross-sell opportunities for Rumble Advertising Center ("RAC").
Announced the launch of the Rumble app on Xbox, an exciting expansion of Rumble's video distribution capabilities, further bolstering the independent creator economy while providing enhanced experiences for Rumble viewers.

Management Commentary

Rumble's Chairman and CEO Chris Pavlovski commented, "The second quarter evidenced proof and traction that our audience is ripe for monetization. With the appropriate user base for monetization, we moved forward and introduced a new key performance indicator in the second quarter - Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) - and delivered a 19% increase in ARPU of $0.37 when compared to the first quarter of 2024. Consequently, with the introduction of ARPU, this marks the last quarter we will report estimated Minutes Watched Per Month and hours of uploaded video per day, as we believe with our focus on monetization the appropriate and best KPI for our business is ARPU. With our focus on monetization and our product suite fully online, we are pleased with the early adoption that has taken hold, as is evident in both the progression of Cloud customers onboarded as well as the evolution of conversations to drive further partnerships expanding our total addressable market within the cloud space."

Q2 Financial Summary (Unaudited)

For the three months ended June 30,		2024		2023		Variance ($	)	Variance (%	)

Revenues	$	22,469,543	$	24,974,054	$	(2,504,511	)	(10	%)
Expenses
Cost of services (content, hosting and other)	$	35,692,133	$	40,849,816	$	(5,157,683	)	(13	%)
General and administrative		10,415,016		9,199,183		1,215,833		13	%
Research and development		5,319,230		4,348,760		970,470		22	%
Sales and marketing		6,274,749		3,697,312		2,577,437		70	%

For the second quarter of 2024, revenue was $22.5 million compared to $25.0 million in the second quarter of 2023, of which $3.0 million was attributable to a decrease in Audience Monetization revenues, offset by higher Other Initiatives revenues of $0.5 million. The decrease in Audience Monetization is due to decreases in advertising fees, offset by increases in subscription and tipping fees. The increase in revenue from Other Initiatives is mostly due to an increase in the monetization of advertising inventory by our publisher network.

Cost of services was $35.7 million for the quarter compared to $40.8 million in the second quarter of 2023. The change was due to a decrease in programming and content costs of $5.6 million, offset by an increase in other cost of services of $0.4 million.

General and administrative expense was $10.4 million for the quarter, compared to $9.2 million in the second quarter of 2023. The change was due to an increase in payroll and related expense of $1.1 million, as well as a $0.1 million increase in other administrative expenses mainly driven by public company-related costs, including accounting, investor relations, and other administrative services.

Research and development expense was $5.3 million for the quarter, compared to $4.3 million in the second quarter of 2023. The change was due to an increase in payroll and related expenses of $1.1 million, offset by a $0.1 million decrease in costs related to computer and software, and other expenses used in research and development-related activity.

Sales and marketing expense was $6.3 million for the quarter, compared to $3.7 million in the second quarter of 2023. The change was due to an increase in marketing and public relations activities of $1.8 million as well as payroll and related expenses of $0.8 million.

Liquidity

As of June 30, 2024, our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities balance was $154.2 million.

Outlook

Despite the headwinds with GARM, if our sponsorship agreements with advertisers continue to perform as expected and political advertising ramps up as the election cycle intensifies, we expect our revenues to continue to increase sequentially throughout 2024.

As we ramp up monetization and maintain discipline around our cost structure, we continue to expect to move materially towards Adjusted EBITDA breakeven in 2025.

Notes on KPIs

Monthly Active Users ("MAUs").

We use MAUs as a measure of audience engagement to help us understand the volume of users engaged with our content on a monthly basis. MAUs represent the total web, mobile app, and connected TV users of Rumble for each month, which allows us to measure our total user base calculated from data provided by Google, a third-party analytics provider. Google defines "active users" as the "[n]umber of distinct users who visited your website or application." We have used the Google analytics systems since we first began publicly reporting MAU statistics, and the resulting data have not been independently verified.

As of July 1, 2023, Universal Analytics ("UA"), Google's analytics platform on which we historically relied for calculating MAUs using company-set parameters, was phased out by Google and ceased processing data. At that time, Google Analytics 4 ("GA4") succeeded UA as Google's next-generation analytics platform, which has been used to determine MAUs since the third quarter of 2023 and which we expect to continue to use to determine MAUs in future periods. Although Google has disclosed certain information regarding the transition to GA4, Google does not currently make available sufficient information relating to its new GA4 algorithm for us to determine the full effect of the switch from UA to GA4 on our reported MAUs. Because Google has publicly stated that metrics in UA "may be more or less similar" to metrics in GA4, and that "[i]t is not unusual for there to be apparent discrepancies" between the two systems, we are unable to determine whether the transition from UA to GA4 has had a positive or negative effect, or the magnitude of such effect, if any, on our reported MAUs. It is therefore possible that MAUs that we reported based on the UA methodology for periods prior to July 1, 2023, cannot be meaningfully compared to MAUs based on the GA4 methodology in subsequent periods.

Average Revenue Per User ("ARPU")

We use ARPU as a measure of our ability to monetize our user base. Quarterly ARPU is calculated as quarterly Audience Monetization revenue divided by MAUs for the relevant quarter (the latter as reported by Google Analytics). ARPU does not include Other Initiatives revenue.

Estimated Minutes Watched Per Month ("MWPM").

We use estimated MWPM as a measure of audience engagement to help us understand the volume of users engaged with our content on a monthly basis and the intensity of users' engagement with the platform. Estimated MWPM represents the monthly average of minutes watched within a quarterly period, which helps us measure user engagement. Estimated MWPM is calculated by converting actual bandwidth consumption into minutes watched, using our management's best estimate of video resolution quality mix and various encoding parameters. We continually seek to improve our best estimates based on our observations of creator and user behavior on the Rumble platform, which changes based on the introduction of new product features, including livestreaming. We are currently limited, however, in our ability to collect data from certain aspects of our systems. These limits may result in errors that are difficult to quantify, especially as the proportion of livestreaming on the Rumble platform increases over time, and as we improve the quality of various video formats by increasing bit rates.

Bandwidth consumption includes video traffic across the entire Rumble platform (website, apps, embedded video, connected TV, RAC, etc.). In addition, our management believes bandwidth consumption includes a nominal amount of non-video traffic on the Rumble and Locals platforms and a potentially significant amount of consumption of Rumble videos outside of the Rumble video player and Rumble apps, due in part to intentional user circumvention of the Rumble platform that, despite our continuous efforts, we are unable to eliminate. Combined, the bandwidth consumption for this traffic may be material and difficult to quantify, resulting in an inability for us to monetize a potentially significant portion of our estimated MWPM.

Estimated MWPM was 8.5 billion on average in the second quarter of 2024, a decrease of 1% from the first quarter of 2024. We believe that the decrease from the first quarter of 2024 was due to our bandwidth consumption moving from third-party service providers' content delivery networks ("CDNs") to our own proprietary CDN, offset by an increased interest in political news in the second quarter of 2024. Based on preliminary testing, our own CDN indicates less bandwidth consumption than one of our service providers' CDNs for comparable user activity. Because we calculate estimated MWPM by converting bandwidth consumption into minutes watched, consumption measured through our own CDN yields a lower estimated MWPM than when measured through that service provider's CDN.

Hours of Uploaded Video Per Day.

We use the amount of hours of uploaded video per day as a measure of content creation to help us understand the volume of content being created and uploaded to us on a daily basis. Hours of uploaded video per day were 13,342 on average in the second quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 7% from the first quarter of 2024. We believe that the increase from the first quarter of 2024 is attributable to an increased interest in political news in the second quarter of 2024.

we may face negative publicity for removing, or declining to remove, certain content, regardless of whether such content violated any law; paid endorsements by our content creators may expose us to regulatory risk, liability, and compliance costs, and, as a result, may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations; our traffic growth, engagement, and monetization depend upon effective operation within and compatibility with operating systems, networks, devices, web browsers and standards, including mobile operating systems, networks, and standards that we do not control; our business depends on continued and unimpeded access to our content and services on the internet and, if we or those who engage with our content experience disruptions in internet service, or if internet service providers are able to block, degrade or charge for access to our content and services, we could incur additional expenses and the loss of traffic and advertisers; we face significant market competition, and if we are unable to compete effectively with our competitors for traffic and advertising spend, our business and operating results could be harmed; we rely on data from third parties to calculate certain of our performance metrics and real or perceived inaccuracies in such metrics may harm our reputation and negatively affect our business; changes to our existing content and services could fail to attract traffic and advertisers or fail to generate revenue; we derive the majority of our revenue from advertising and the failure to attract new advertisers, the loss of existing advertisers, or the reduction of or failure by existing advertisers to maintain or increase their advertising budgets would adversely affect our business; we depend on third-party vendors, including internet service providers, advertising networks, and data centers, to provide core services; hosting and delivery costs may increase unexpectedly; we have offered and intend to continue to offer incentives, including economic incentives, to content creators to join our platform, and these arrangements may involve fixed payment obligations that are not contingent on actual revenue or performance metrics generated by the applicable content creator but rather are based on our modeled financial projections for that creator, which if not satisfied may adversely impact our financial performance, results of operations and liquidity; we may be unable to develop or maintain effective internal controls; potential diversion of management's attention and consumption of resources as a result of acquisitions of other companies and success in integrating and otherwise achieving the benefits of recent and potential acquisitions; we may fail to maintain adequate operational and financial resources or raise additional capital or generate sufficient cash flows; changes in tax rates, changes in tax treatment of companies engaged in e-commerce, the adoption of new tax legislation, or exposure to additional tax liabilities may adversely impact our financial results;
