    Solid Q1 Results. The company reported Q1 revenue of $97.0 million and adj. EBITDA of $15.6 million, both of which easily surpassed our estimates of $87.0 million and a loss of $0.6 million, respectively. Notably, while revenue decreased 9% from last year, adj. EBITDA was up substantially from a loss of roughly $1.0 million. The improvement in adj. EBITDA was largely driven by the company’s efficient use of marketing spend and focus on profitability.

    Key operating metrics. Bookings and monthly paying users decreased by 25% and 26%, respectively, compared to the prior year period, but the decrease was expected as the company is focused on improving the quality of gameplay and not over-monetizing its user base. For example, average bookings per paying user (ABPPU) increased from $88 in Q1’24 to $90 in Q1’25, despite a decrease in monthly paying users.

    Solid Q4 results. The company reported Q4 revenue of $97.5 million, modestly lower than our estimate of $101.0 million, but adj.

    Key operating metrics. In Q4, the company generated $94 million in bookings and had 292,000 monthly paying users (MPU).

Importantly, the decrease in MPU’s moderated from the quarter-over-quarter decrease experienced in Q3, and the company’s strategic marketing efforts appear to be gaining traction.

    Release – GDEV Provides Clarification In Respect Of Previously Announced Special Cash Dividend

    Research News and Market Data on GDEV

    February 25, 2025 08:00 ET 

    LIMASSOL, Cyprus, Feb. 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — GDEV Inc. (Nasdaq: GDEV), an international gaming and entertainment company (“GDEV” or the “Company”), today issued a clarification in respect of its previously announced one-time, nonrecurring special cash dividend of $3.31 per share, payable on March 11, 2025, to the Company’s shareholders of record as of the close of business on March 3, 2025. According to Nasdaq, the ex-dividend date for Nasdaq trading will be March 12, 2025.

    Nasdaq Rule 11140(b)(2) provides that if the value of a cash dividend is 25% or greater than the value of the subject security, the ex-dividend date will be the first business day following the payable date. According to Nasdaq, the value of the subject security is based upon the closing bid price as of the last trading date before the public announcement of the cash dividend. The closing bid price of GDEV shares as of February 20, 2025, the last trading date before the Company’s public announcement of the special dividend, was $12.82.

    On March 12, 2025, the ex-dividend date, Nasdaq will reset the opening trading price of GDEV’s ordinary shares to reflect the payment of the special dividend. While an investor generally needs to own the shares on the payable date to be entitled to the special dividend, investors should consult with their financial advisors as to their entitlement to the special dividend. The trading price for GDEV’s ordinary shares on the ex-dividend date is expected to be lower than the closing price on March 11, 2025, the last trading date before the ex-dividend date, to reflect the amount of the special dividend. On and after the ex-dividend date, purchasers of GDEV’s ordinary shares will have no right to receive the special dividend with respect to those newly purchased ordinary shares.

    Special dividend. On Friday, February 21, the company announced that its board of directors approved a nonrecurring special cash dividend of $3.31 per share. The sizeable cash dividend, payable on March 11 to shareholders of record on March 3, represented a yield of roughly 20% at the time of announcement. Furthermore, the cash dividend totals roughly $60 million and will be funded entirely through the company’s healthy cash position.

    Delivering value. In our view, the special cash dividend is illustrative of the Board of Directors’ confidence in the company’s long-term outlook, strong financial position, and commitment to deliver value to shareholders. Notably, we believe the company will be able to pay out the sizeable dividend without compromising its strategic growth initiatives in player retention and quality of gameplay.

    Release – GDEV Declares One-Time, Nonrecurring Special Cash Dividend of $3.31 Per Share

    Research News and Market Data on GDEV

    February 21, 2025 08:00 ET 

    LIMASSOL, Cyprus, Feb. 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — GDEV Inc. (Nasdaq: GDEV), an international gaming and entertainment company (“GDEV” or the “Company”), today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized and approved a one-time, nonrecurring special cash dividend of $3.31 per share, representing a yield of approximately 20% based on the volume-weighted average price of the Company’s shares for the last 30 trading days prior to today’s announcement. The special dividend is payable on March 11, 2025, to the Company’s shareholders of record as of the close of business on March 3, 2025.

    This one-time special dividend, totaling approximately $60 million, will be funded from GDEV’s accumulated profits over the past few years and represents a portion of the Company’s total cash balance of approximately $153 million1 (as of Q3 2024). The Company expects to release its audited results for the 2024 financial year around the end of the first quarter of 2025.

    By distributing a portion of its retained earnings, GDEV better optimizes its capital structure, reducing excess liquidity and providing for a more lean and efficient operating model. This decision reflects the Company’s commitment to disciplined capital allocation and long-term value creation. The Board’s confidence in GDEV’s financial strength underscores its proactive approach to maintaining an optimal balance between stability and growth in the volatile environment. Importantly, this special dividend is a one-time distribution and does not establish a recurring dividend program. It is not anticipated that the GDEV’s Board of Directors will declare any further dividends in the foreseeable future.

    GDEV Founder, CEO, and Chairman of the Board of Directors, Andrey Fadeev, stated: “The special dividend is the first in the Company’s history since our public listing. The decision to declare a special dividend underscores our commitment to delivering value to our shareholders while maintaining a strong financial position. Our robust balance sheet enables us to return capital to shareholders without compromising our ability to invest in the Company’s long-term growth. Following this distribution, GDEV will remain debt-free with a substantial cash balance providing financial stability and the continued development of both our existing portfolio and future initiatives.”

    NobleCon20. On December 3rd, management presented to the investment community at NobleCon20, held at Florida Atlantic University (FAU) in Boca Raton, Florida. The presentation was conducted by Alexander Karavaev, chief financial officer, and Roman Safiyulin, chief corporate development officer. The duo highlighted the company’s dynamic growth prospects and the prospective swing toward growth in bookings. A replay of the presentation can be viewed by clicking here.

    Dynamic business model. The company focuses on live-service games, meaning that the games have a continuous lifespan and are updated on an ongoing basis. This allows for a stable revenue base that grows over time, unlike many gaming companies with a “lumpier” revenue profile that oscillates based on game release schedules.

    Solid Q3 results. Total company revenue was $110.7 million, which beat our $103.0 million estimate by 7.4%, and adj. EBITDA of $16.9 million, substantially exceeded our estimate of $4.9 million. The adj. EBITDA beat was largely attributed to the revenue upside and modestly lower game operating and marketing expenses. The strong operating results also beat Street estimates, with consensus adj. EBITDA of $8.5 million.

    Attractive outlook. While revenue outperformed our expectations, bookings were lower than expected. Management highlighted its focus on player retention and quality of play rather than short term monetization of its user base. Given that active users were down roughly 16% from the prior year period, we view the company’s focus on player retention and improving gameplay favorably.

    Over delivered on Q3 results. Total company revenue was $110.7 million, beating our $103.0 million estimate. With costs in line with expectations, the revenue upside flowed to adj. EBITDA, which substantially exceeded our expectations, of $16.9 million versus our estimate of $4.9 million, as illustrated in Figure #1 Q3 Results. We believe that the results beat Street estimates, with consensus adj. EBITDA of $8.5 million.

    Upside variance. The company is seeking ways to make efficient use of its marketing spend, particularly in areas that provide sufficient returns. Sales & Marketing expenses of $52.0 million were lower than our $53.0 million estimate in spite of better than expected revenues. We anticipate Sales & Marketing expenses to accelerate in coming quarters as the company hones in on its marketing strategy and expands into new territories.
