Strong Q3 results. The company demonstrated attractive 11% revenue growth in Q3 with revenue of $16.1 million, slightly better than our estimate of $15.7 million. Adj. EBITDA and adj. net income for the quarter were both better than our expectations, due to lower-than-expected marketing, G&A, and R&D expenses.

Revenue drivers. The company’s B2C segment drove Q3 revenue growth, while the B2B segment revenue was more flat, as some of the company’s enterprise clients have faced economic challenges. Importantly, the company’s B2C web-based offering should bolster B2C revenue growth. As for B2B, interest rate cuts should have a positive impact on clients’ enterprise software budgets. Moreover, the company could increase contract values through new services, such as Perfect GPT.

Q3 beat. Perfect Corp. reported better-than-expected Q3 results. The company reported Q3 revenue of $16.1 million, slightly better than our estimate of $15.7 million. Adj. EBITDA of $1.2 million and adj. net income of $3.2 million were also better than our estimates of a loss of $0.3 million and a gain of $1.6 million, respectively. Figure #1 Q3 Results highlights how the performance compared with our forecast.  

B2C leading the way. Management noted that the company’s B2C segment was the key revenue growth driver in the quarter. Moreover, the company is poised to capitalize on an expanding B2C opportunity set with a web-based service offering. Notably, web-based services offer higher margins than the company’s mobile app offerings, due to the lack of Android and iOS app store fees.
