NEW YORK, May 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Taboola (Nasdaq: TBLA), a global leader in delivering performance at scale for advertisers, today announced its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.
"We're pleased to start the year off strong, coming in above our guidance across all key metrics," said Adam Singolda, CEO of Taboola. "We're building real momentum - fueled by disciplined execution, traction on our Realize platform, and a deep belief in our long-term opportunity. We'll continue to invest where we see growth, return capital through share repurchases, and stay focused on becoming the leader in performance advertising beyond search and social."
First Quarter 2025 Financial Results
(All comparisons are to the first quarter of 2024 unless otherwise noted.)
- Revenues of $427 million, an increase of 3%. Revenues were primarily driven by 9% growth in Scaled Advertisers partially offset by a 3% decline in Average Revenue per Scaled Advertiser. Q1 revenue growth primarily reflects broad-based growth, including growth in our existing Native business.
- Gross Profit of $119 million, an increase of 10%. ex-TAC Gross Profit was $152 million, an increase of 9%, including a (0.7%) impact from currency. Ex-TAC Gross Profit was primarily driven by growth in advertising spend as well as a mix shift to higher margin digital property partners.
- Operating loss was $6 million, improved from an operating loss of $18 million. Ratio of net loss to gross profit improved to (7.3%) from (24%). Adjusted EBITDA was $36 million, up 53%. Adjusted EBITDA margins expanded to 23.7% from 16.9%. Adjusted EBITDA growth was primarily driven by ad spend growth and continued cost discipline.
- Cash flow generated by operating activities was $48 million, compared to $32 million. Free Cash Flow was $36 million, compared to $27 million. Increases in cash flow provided by operating activities and free cash flow were primarily due to strong collections, lower publisher prepayments, and continued cost discipline.

*About Non-GAAP Financial Information
This press release includes ex-TAC Gross Profit, Adjusted EBITDA, Ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to ex-TAC Gross Profit, Free Cash Flow, Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss), which are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP and may exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing the Company's financial results. Therefore, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to revenues, gross profit, net income (loss), cash flows from operations or other measures of profitability, liquidity or performance under GAAP. You should be aware that the Company's presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. The Company believes non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to management and investors regarding future financial and business trends relating to the Company. The Company believes that the use of these measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating operating results and trends and in comparing the Company's financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. Non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations because they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which items are excluded or included in calculating them, which may vary from period to period. Please refer to the appendix at the end of this press release for reconciliations to the most directly comparable measures in accordance with GAAP.

The weighted-average shares for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, included 298,323,708 and 300,303,941 Ordinary shares, and 43,637,291 and 45,198,702 Non-voting Ordinary shares, respectively.
Second Quarter and Full Year 2025 Guidance
For the Second Quarter and Full Year 2025, the Company currently expects (dollars in millions):
| Q2 2025 Guidance | ? | FY 2025 Guidance | |
| Unaudited | |||
| (dollars in millions) | |||
| Revenues | $438 - $458 | $1,838 - $1,888 | |
| Gross profit | $124 - $134 | $536 - $552 | |
| ex-TAC Gross Profit* | $156 - $166 | $674 - $690 | |
| Adjusted EBITDA* | $38 - $44 | $201 - $209 | |
| Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss)* | $26 - $32 | $122 - $128 | |
Although we provide guidance for Adjusted EBITDA and Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss), we are not able to provide guidance for projected net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Certain elements of net income (loss), including share-based compensation expenses and warrant valuations, are not predictable due to the high variability and difficulty of making accurate forecasts. As a result, it is impractical for us to provide guidance on net income (loss) or to reconcile our Adjusted EBITDA and Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) guidance without unreasonable efforts. Consequently, no disclosure of projected net income (loss) is included. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.

Although we provide guidance for Adjusted EBITDA and Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss), we are not able to provide guidance for projected net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Certain elements of net income (loss), including share-based compensation expenses and warrant valuations, are not predictable due to the high variability and difficulty of making accurate forecasts. As a result, it is impractical for us to provide guidance on net income (loss) or to reconcile our Adjusted EBITDA and Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) guidance without unreasonable efforts. Consequently, no disclosure of projected net income (loss) is included. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.
