A quarterly adjusted EBITDA profit of $1 million was above the Q3 2020 EBITDA of $0.3 million loss.
The podcast company said it now expects it will generate revenues above current market expectations for the 2021 financial year and a significantly increased adjusted EBITDA relative to market expectations.
Stuart Last, CEO of Audioboom, said: “Q3 2021 was another period of stellar performance for Audioboom as, once again, we significantly outpaced the growth of the wider podcast industry and set new revenue and adjusted EBITDA records. Our content-focused expansion strategy continued to drive download and ad inventory levels to new highs.
“While our core revenue streams expand at pace, I am delighted with the progress we are making through our investments in production and ad tech.”
Audioboom shares are up 2.37% at 1,080p at the time of writing.
