First Quarter 2025 Results

Revenue, Gross Profit and Contribution ex-TAC

Revenue increased 0.3% year-over-year in Q1 2025, or 3% at constant currency, to $451 million (Q1 2024: $450 million). Gross profit increased 9% year-over-year in Q1 2025 to $237 million (Q1 2024: $217 million). Gross profit as a percentage of revenue, or gross profit margin, was 52% (Q1 2024: 48%). Contribution ex-TAC in the first quarter increased 4% year-over-year, or increased 7% at constant currency, to $264 million (Q1 2024: $254 million).

Retail Media revenue increased 17%, or 18% at constant currency, reflecting continued strength in Retail Media onsite. Retail Media Contribution ex-TAC increased 17%, or 18% at constant currency, driven by continued strength in Retail Media onsite, new client integrations and growing network effects of the platform.
Performance Media revenue decreased (2)%, or increased 1% at constant currency, and Performance Media Contribution ex-TAC increased 1%, or 4% at constant currency, driven by the continued traction of our suite of commerce solutions helping advertisers drive measurable performance across the entire buyer journey, partially offset by lower AdTech services.

Net Income and Adjusted Net Income

Net income was $40 million in Q1 2025 (Q1 2024: net income of $9 million). Net income allocated to shareholders of Criteo was $38 million, or $0.66 per share on a diluted basis (Q1 2024: net income available to shareholders of $7 million, or $0.12 per share on a diluted basis).

Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $63 million, or $1.10 per share on a diluted basis (Q1 2024: $47 million, or $0.80 per share on a diluted basis).

Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Expenses

Adjusted EBITDA was $92 million, representing an increase of 30% year-over-year (Q1 2024: $71 million). This primarily reflects higher Contribution ex-TAC over the period and effective cost management. Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of Contribution ex-TAC, or Adjusted EBITDA margin, was 35% (Q1 2024: 28%).

Operating expenses decreased (9)% year-over-year to $189 million (Q1 2024: $207 million), mostly driven by continued rigor on resource allocation and lower equity award compensation expense, partially offset by planned growth investments. Non-GAAP operating expenses decreased (3)% year-over-year to $151 million (Q1 2024: $155 million).

Cash Flow, Cash and Financial Liquidity Position

Cash flow from operating activities increased to $62 million in Q1 2025 (Q1 2024: $14 million).

Free Cash Flow, defined as cash flow from operating activities less acquisition of intangible assets, property and equipment and change in accounts payable related to intangible assets, property and equipment, increased to $45 million in Q1 2025 (Q1 2024: $1 million). On a trailing 12-month basis, Free Cash Flow was $226 million.

Cash and cash equivalents, and marketable securities, were $329 million, a $(3) million decrease compared to December 31, 2024, after spending $56 million on share repurchases in the three months ended March 31, 2025.

As of March 31, 2025, the Company had total financial liquidity of approximately $810 million, including its cash position, marketable securities, revolving credit facility and treasury shares reserved for M&A.

Update on Chrome Third-Party Cookie Policy

On April 23, 2025, Google announced that it will maintain its current approach for offering users control over third-party cookies in the Chrome browser. This decision follows a 2024 proposal to implement a new framework and standalone prompt for collecting user consent regarding third-party cookie usage across web browsing activity. Google confirmed it will not proceed with the proposed standalone consent prompt and instead will continue with its existing mechanisms for user choice.

We appreciate our partnership with Google and the wider ecosystem, and welcome Google’s decision to provide greater clarity around their plans for third-party cookies. We have future-proofed our approach to privacy protecting addressability which uses advanced AI to consolidate and then optimize diverse signals, including alternative IDs, first-party data, contextual inputs and browser-based tools like the Privacy Sandbox. This enables us to execute tailored, full-funnel, cross-channel campaigns that drive measurable outcomes for our clients in any scenario.

Commercial Update

On April 30, 2025, our largest Retail Media client notified us that they will curtail the scope of services to be provided commencing November 1, 2025, which will reduce the expected revenue from that date onwards. They will continue to use our industry-leading Retail Media technology platform under a multi-year committed contract while discontinuing our managed services and curtailing the remaining brand demand sales services.

2025 Business Outlook

The following forward-looking statements reflect Criteo’s expectations as of May 2, 2025, amidst an uncertain macro-economic backdrop.

Fiscal year 2025 guidance:
Low-single-digit growth in Contribution ex-TAC at constant currency.
Adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 33% to 34% of Contribution ex-TAC.

Second quarter 2025 guidance:
Contribution ex-TAC between $272 million and $278 million, or -2% to flat year-over-year at constant-currency at the midpoint.
Adjusted EBITDA between $60 million and $66 million.

The above guidance for the second quarter and fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 assumes the following exchange rates for the main currencies impacting our business: a U.S. dollar-euro rate of 0.909, a U.S. dollar-Japanese Yen rate of 150, a U.S. dollar-British Pound rate of 0.787, a U.S. dollar-Korean Won rate of 1,426 and a U.S. dollar-Brazilian Real rate of 5.83.

The above guidance assumes that no additional acquisitions are completed during the second quarter of 2025.

Reconciliations of Contribution ex-TAC, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin guidance to the closest corresponding U.S. GAAP measures are not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to the high variability, complexity and low visibility with respect to the charges excluded from these non-GAAP measures; in particular, the measures and effects of equity awards compensation expense specific to equity compensation awards that are directly impacted by unpredictable fluctuations in our share price. The variability of the above charges could potentially have a significant impact on our future U.S. GAAP financial results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release and its attachments include the following financial measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"): Contribution ex-TAC, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted diluted EPS, Free Cash Flow and Non-GAAP Operating Expenses. These measures are not calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Contribution ex-TAC is a profitability measure akin to gross profit. It is calculated by deducting traffic acquisition costs from revenue and reconciled to gross profit through the exclusion of other costs of revenue. Contribution ex-TAC is not a measure calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We have included Contribution ex-TAC because it is a key measure used by our management and board of directors to evaluate operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions. In particular, we believe that this measure can provide useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of our business. Accordingly, we believe that Contribution ex-TAC provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations in the same manner as our management and board of directors.

Adjusted EBITDA is our consolidated earnings before financial income (expense), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted to eliminate the impact of equity awards compensation expense, pension service costs, certain restructuring, integration and transformation costs, and certain acquisition costs. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are key measures used by our management and board of directors to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget and to develop short- and long-term operational plans. In particular, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin can provide useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of our business. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin provide useful information to investors and the market generally in understanding and evaluating our results of operations in the same manner as our management and board of directors.

Adjusted Net Income is our net income adjusted to eliminate the impact of equity awards compensation expense, amortization of acquisition-related assets, certain restructuring, integration and transformation costs, certain acquisition costs, and the tax impact of these adjustments. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted diluted EPS are key measures used by our management and board of directors to evaluate operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital. In particular, we believe that Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted diluted EPS can provide useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of our business. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted diluted EPS provide useful information to investors and the market generally in understanding and evaluating our results of operations in the same manner as our management and board of directors.

Free Cash Flow is defined as cash flow from operating activities less acquisition of intangible assets, property, plant and equipment and change in accounts payable related to intangible assets, property and equipment. Free Cash Flow Conversion is defined as free cash flow divided by Adjusted EBITDA. Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Conversion are key measures used by our management and board of directors to evaluate the Company's ability to generate cash. Accordingly, we believe that Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Conversion permit a more complete and comprehensive analysis of our available cash flows.

Non-GAAP Operating Expenses are our consolidated operating expenses adjusted to eliminate equity awards compensation expense, pension service costs, certain restructuring, integration and transformation costs, and certain acquisition and integration costs. The Company uses Non-GAAP Operating Expenses to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for internal budgeting and forecasting purposes, for short-term and long-term operational plans, and to assess and measure our financial performance and the ability of our operations to generate cash. We believe Non-GAAP Operating Expenses reflects our ongoing operating expenses in a manner that allows for meaningful period-to-period comparisons and analysis of trends in our business. As a result, we believe that Non-GAAP Operating Expenses provides useful information to investors in understanding and evaluating our core operating performance and trends in the same manner as our management and in comparing financial results across periods. In addition, Non-GAAP Operating Expenses is a key component in calculating Adjusted EBITDA, which is one of the key measures the Company uses to provide its quarterly and annual business outlook to the investment community.

Please refer to the supplemental financial tables provided in the appendix of this press release for a reconciliation of Contribution ex-TAC to gross profit, Adjusted EBITDA to net income, Adjusted Net Income to net income, Free Cash Flow to cash flow from operating activities, and Non-GAAP Operating Expenses to operating expenses, in each case, the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure. Our use of non-GAAP financial measures has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider such non-GAAP measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are: 1) other companies, including companies in our industry which have similar business arrangements, may address the impact of TAC differently; and 2) other companies may report Contribution ex-TAC, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Free Cash Flow, Non-GAAP Operating Expenses or similarly titled measures but calculate them differently or over different regions, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these and other limitations, you should consider these measures alongside our U.S. GAAP financial results, including revenue and net income.
