NEW YORK, March 07, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tremor International Ltd. (AIM/NASDAQ: TRMR) (“Tremor” or the “Company”), a global leader in data-driven video and connected TV (“CTV”) advertising technology offering an end-to-end platform that enables advertisers to optimize their campaigns and media companies to maximize inventory yield, today announces its financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2022.
Financial Summary
- Generated record Q4 2022 Contribution ex-TAC of $103.0 million, compared to $88.6 million in Q4 2021, and record Contribution ex-TAC of $309.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to $302.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, in-line with market expectations. All results shown for the three months ended December 31, 2022 include contributions from Amobee, while all results shown for the year ended December 31, 2022 include contributions from Amobee for the September 12, 2022 through December 31, 2022 period.
- Significantly expanded CTV market share, generating record Q4 CTV spend of $99.6 million, an increase of 59% compared to $62.5 million in Q4 2021, and record CTV spend of $283.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, reflecting a 41% increase from $201.0 million generated for the year ended December 31, 2021.
- Achieved Q4 2022 Adjusted EBITDA of $36.9 million, compared to $54.0 million in Q4 2021, and Adjusted EBITDA of $144.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to $161.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, in-line with market expectations.
- Maintained strong margins, including a 34% Adjusted EBITDA margin on a reported revenue basis and 36% on a Contribution ex-TAC basis in Q4 2022, and a 43% Adjusted EBITDA margin on a reported revenue basis, and 47% on a Contribution ex-TAC basis for the year ended December 31, 2022.
- CTV spend during the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 reflected 39% of total spend and 42% of programmatic spend.
- Video revenue, including CTV, continued to represent the vast majority of Tremor’s Contribution ex-TAC at approximately 73% for Q4 2022 and 79% for the year ended December 31, 2022.
- $115.5 million net cash position as of December 31, 2022, alongside remaining $80 million undrawn on the Company’s revolving credit facility, provides strong liquidity for the ongoing needs of the business as well as for future potential strategic investments and initiatives.
- Achieved a net retention rate of 80% during 2022. While the Company’s net retention rate declined year-over-year, largely due to lower spending by advertising customers amidst challenging market conditions, the Company was able to increase its active customer base.
“During the fourth quarter, we significantly expanded our CTV market share and customer base while working on the integration of new, enhanced, and differentiated technology and data capabilities around linear TV and CTV cross-planning, which we believe will prove to be critical for success in the future of digital advertising,” said Ofer Druker, Tremor International’s Chief Executive Officer. “In 2023, we will keep our focus on generating strong profitability and cash flow, deepening revenue relationships with leading brands, agencies, broadcasters, and CTV partners, completing the integration of Amobee, and unifying the Company under one brand to more effectively convey the holistic value proposition of our end-to-end technology ecosystem in the market.”
Mr. Druker added, “As macroeconomic uncertainty persists, we’ve observed customers increasingly consolidating budgets with fewer trusted partners, and more complete and advanced technology solutions, that optimize budget deployment through efficient data-driven planning and audience targeting to drive superior returns on advertising spend. We believe our technology suite offers a comprehensive solution across planning, data, activation, and media unmatched in the open internet, strongly positioning the Company with the potential to capture a larger share of existing customer budgets and attract new customers and partners.”
Operational Highlights
- Achieved significant progress integrating Amobee and introducing combined capabilities to the market; the Company continues to expect to largely complete the technology integration by the end of H1 2023:
- Successfully enhanced efficiency by combining management, sales, marketing, and product teams, realizing approximately $50 million in annualized operating cost synergies, while generating positive adjusted EBITDA from Amobee within the first three weeks of closing the acquisition.
- Management continues to expect total annualized operating cost synergies of approximately $65 million, which includes the approximately $50 million already realized.
- The Company continues to focus on generating further cost savings by eliminating duplicative technology fees as it works towards combining the Tremor Video and Amobee DSPs into a single enhanced CTV- and video-focused platform with stronger enterprise self-service capabilities, and unique linear TV and CTV cross-planning capabilities.
- The linear TV and cross-planning capabilities enabled by the acquisition of Amobee are already generating commercial traction with some of the world’s leading broadcasters and agencies. The Company is engaged in ongoing partnership discussions and testing with major broadcasters and agencies seeking to leverage its newly created cross-planning technology and is encouraged by early signs that this technology increases the likelihood of existing and prospective customers adopting multiple solutions across the Company’s end-to-end ecosystem.
- Deepened strategic relationship with VIDAA and Hisense; the Company expects meaningful revenue benefits associated with its investment in VIDAA beginning in late-2023:
- Executed a first-of-its-kind partnership with Hisense, VIDAA, and Google to enable ad monetization on the FIFA+ CTV app across millions of VIDAA- and Google-powered smart TVs during the 2022 FIFA World Cup. The Company expects additional exclusive sports-related CTV content opportunities through its partnership with VIDAA and Hisense in the future.
- VIDAA continued to expand its market share, increasing adoption by additional smart TV brands, and adding several major CTV partners. We believe VIDAA now delivers a wide range of major U.S. subscription video-on-demand (“SVOD”) services and streams an average of approximately 1 billion hours of monthly content in roughly 180 countries and territories.
- VIDAA launched VIDAA Free, a streaming hub offering video-on-demand, live linear, FAST, and ad-supported content which will be available on millions of VIDAA-powered smart TVs from Hisense. VIDAA Free is currently live in the U.S., with plans to expand globally later in 2023. This is expected to benefit Tremor over time through the Company’s ad monetization exclusivity on VIDAA media in the U.S., U.K., Canada, and Australia.
- For the first time, according to AVC Revo, Hisense rose to number one in the world for monthly global smart TV shipments during December 2022. As Hisense continues to expand its reach, Tremor and its customers are expected to increasingly benefit through the Company’s unique exclusive global access to VIDAA’s ACR data for targeting and measurement within CTV.
- Tremor Video and Unruly continued to generate increased advertiser and supply partner adoption:
- Unruly added 87 new supply partners, including 56 in the US, during Q4 2022, and 319 new supply partners, including 160 in the US, for the year ended December 31, 2022. Partners continued to be added across verticals such as sports, news, and entertainment, and several formats including online video, mobile, CTV, and OTT apps from leading broadcast and vMVPD businesses.
- Unruly CTRL, Tremor’s self-service platform for publishers, saw PMP spend increase by 160% during Q4 2022 compared to Q4 2021, and 247% for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to the year ended December 31, 2021.
- Tremor Video added 42 new advertiser customers during Q4 2022, and 233 for the year ended December 31, 2022, across retail, political, CPG, travel, and automotive verticals, as well as others.
- Tr. ly produced 365% more unique creatives during 2022 than in 2021. Growth was attributable to increased adoption of Tr. ly’s premium creative services, including its data-driven creative product, which doubled the number of campaigns executed during 2022 compared to 2021, and generated 345% more spend from clients over the same period.
Share Repurchase Program Update
- Tremor International repurchased 3,114,310 Ordinary shares during Q4 2022 at an average price of 304.48 pence, reflecting a total investment of approximately £9.50 million, or $11.3 million. The Company’s currently authorized share repurchase program will continue until either April 1, 2023, or until it has been completed. The share repurchase program does not obligate Tremor to repurchase any particular amount of Ordinary Shares and the program may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time at the Company’s discretion, subject to applicable law.
- During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company repurchased 16,906,795 Ordinary shares, or approximately 11% of shares outstanding, at an average price of 413.03 pence, reflecting a total investment of approximately £70.0 million, or $86.3 million.
Financial Guidance
- Global economic uncertainty which negatively impacted the advertising industry throughout 2022, driven by several factors including rising inflation, rising interest rates, global supply chain constraints, residual effects from the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical conflicts, and recession concerns, continues to represent a challenge for the Company, its global customers, and partners.
- Due to these uncertainties, management has lowered its full year 2023 Contribution ex-TAC and Adjusted EBITDA outlook and expects global advertising demand to remain constrained in H1 2023, and potentially longer, however does not anticipate advertising demand will weaken to the soft levels observed during late-2022, and earlier in 2023.
- Management anticipates incremental improvements to results during H2 2023, driven by anticipated positive effects of completing the integration of Amobee, expected revenue benefits associated with the Company’s investment in VIDAA beginning in late-2023, and expectations for tempered improvements in the global advertising demand environment, and accordingly, Tremor estimates:
- Full year 2023 Contribution ex-TAC of approximately $400 million
- Full year 2023 Adjusted EBITDA in a range of approximately $140 – $145 million
- Full year 2023 Contribution ex-TAC of approximately $400 million
- In 2023, management believes revenue tied to the Company’s core business, focused on programmatic activities, will grow approximately 5% on a combined pro forma basis, while revenue in the Company’s non-core performance business is expected to decline year-over-year.

Use of Non-IFRS Financial Information
In addition to our IFRS results, we review certain non-IFRS financial measures to help us evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, establish budgets, measure the effectiveness of investments in our technology and development and sales and marketing, and assess our operational efficiencies. These non-IFRS measures include Contribution ex-TAC, Adjusted EBITDA, Non-IFRS Net Income and Non-IFRS Earnings per share, each of which is discussed below.
These non-IFRS financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or as superior to, the corresponding financial measures prepared in accordance with IFRS. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and review the reconciliation of these non-IFRS financial measures to their most comparable IFRS measures, and the reasons we consider them appropriate. It is important to note that the particular items we exclude from, or include in, our non-IFRS financial measures may differ from the items excluded from, or included in, similar non-IFRS financial measures used by other companies. See "Reconciliation of Revenue to Contribution ex-TAC," "Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA," and "Reconciliation of Net Income to Non-IFRS Net Income," included as part of this press release.
- Contribution ex-TAC: Contribution ex-TAC for Tremor International is defined as gross profit plus depreciation and amortization attributable to cost of revenues and cost of revenues (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) minus the Performance media cost (“traffic acquisition costs” or “TAC”). Contribution ex-TAC is a supplemental measure of our financial performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, IFRS. Contribution ex-TAC should not be considered as an alternative to gross profit as a measure of financial performance. Contribution ex-TAC is a non-IFRS financial measure and should not be viewed in isolation. We believe Contribution ex-TAC is a useful measure in assessing the performance of Tremor International, because it facilitates a consistent comparison against our core business without considering the impact of traffic acquisition costs related to revenue reported on a gross basis.
- Adjusted EBITDA: We define Adjusted EBITDA for Tremor International as total comprehensive income for the period adjusted for foreign currency translation differences for foreign operations, financing expenses, net, tax benefit, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, restructuring, acquisition and IPO-related costs and other expenses (income), net. Adjusted EBITDA is included in the press release because it is a key metric used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is an appropriate measure of operating performance because it eliminates the impact of expenses that do not relate directly to the performance of the underlying business.
- Adjusted EBITDA margin: We define Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of Contribution ex-TAC.
- Non-IFRS Income and Non-IFRS Earnings per Share: We define non-IFRS earnings per share as non-IFRS income divided by non-IFRS weighted-average shares outstanding. Non-IFRS income is equal to net income excluding stock-based compensation, and cash- and non-cash-based acquisition and related expenses, including amortization of acquired intangible assets, merger-related severance costs, and transaction expenses. In periods in which we have non-IFRS income, non-IFRS weighted-average shares outstanding used to calculate non-IFRS earnings per share includes the impact of potentially dilutive shares. Potentially dilutive shares consist of stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, and performance stock units, each computed using the treasury stock method. We believe non-IFRS earnings per share is useful to investors in evaluating our ongoing operational performance and our trends on a per share basis, and also facilitates comparison of our financial results on a per share basis with other companies, many of which present a similar non-IFRS measure. However, a potential limitation of our use of non-IFRS earnings per share is that other companies may define non-IFRS earnings per share differently, which may make comparison difficult. This measure may also exclude expenses that may have a material impact on our reported financial results. Non-IFRS earnings per share is a performance measure and should not be used as a measure of liquidity. Because of these limitations, we also consider the comparable IFRS measure of net income.
We do not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-IFRS financial metrics, because reconciling information is not available without an unreasonable effort, such as attempting to make assumptions that cannot reasonably be made on a forward-looking basis to determine the corresponding IFRS metric.
