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.”

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.

(loss)); our ability to meet working capital needs and cash
requirements over the next 12 months; and our expectations
regarding future results and certain key performance indicators.
Certain of these forward-looking statements can be identified by
using words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “intends,”
“estimates,” “targets,” “expects,” “endeavors,” “forecasts,” “well
underway,” “could,” “a pathway to,” “will,” “may,” “future,”
“likely,” “on track to deliver,” “accelerate,” “on a trajectory,”

statements. The forward-looking statements included in this release
are based on our current beliefs and expectations of our management
as of the date of this release. These statements are not guarantees
or indicative of future performance. Important assumptions and
other important factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those forward-looking statements include our
ability to grow and manage future growth profitably over time,
maintain relationships with customers, compete within our industry
and retain key employees; the possibility that we may be adversely
impacted by economic, business, and/or competitive factors; our
limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our
business and prospects; our recent and rapid growth may not be
indicative of future performance; we may not continue to grow or
maintain our active user base, and may not be able to achieve or
maintain profitability; risks relating to our ability to attract
new advertisers, or the potential loss of existing advertisers or
the reduction of or failure by existing advertisers to maintain or
increase their advertising budgets; Rumble Cloud, our recently
launched cloud services business may not achieve success and, as a
result, our business, financial condition and results of operations
could be adversely affected; negative media campaigns may adversely
impact our financial performance, results of operations, and
relationships with our business partners, including content
creators and advertisers; spam activity, including inauthentic and
fraudulent user activity, if undetected, may contribute, from time
to time, to some amount of overstatement of our performance
indicators; we collect, store, and process large amounts of user
video content and personal information of our users and subscribers
and, if our security measures are breached, our sites and
applications may be perceived as not being secure, traffic and
advertisers may curtail or stop viewing our content or using our
services, our business and operating results could be harmed, and
we could face governmental investigations and legal claims from
users and subscribers; we may fail to comply with applicable
privacy laws; we are subject to cybersecurity risks and
interruptions or failures in our information technology systems
and, notwithstanding our efforts to enhance our protection from
such risks, a cyber incident could occur and result in information
theft, data corruption, operational disruption and/or financial
loss; we may be found to have infringed on the intellectual
property of others, which could expose us to substantial losses or
restrict our operations; we may face liability for hosting a
variety of tortious or unlawful materials uploaded by third
parties, notwithstanding the liability protections of Section 230
of the Communications Decency Act of 1996; 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; compliance obligations
imposed by new privacy laws, laws regulating social media platforms
and online speech in certain jurisdictions in which we operate, or
industry practices may adversely affect our business; and those
additional risks, uncertainties and factors described in more
detail under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and in our other
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We do not
intend, and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation,
to update any of our forward-looking statements after the issuance
of this release to reflect any future events or circumstances.
Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to
place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.
