−Removed: Zedge is a leading app developer focusing on mobile
−Removed: phone personalization and entertainment.
−Removed: “Zedge Wallpapers and Ringtones”
−Removed: our flagship app is all about personal identity.
−Removed: We’re the hub for self-expression used by millions for mobile phone personalization, social content and fandom art.
−Removed: Our app enables
−Removed: consumers to showcase who they are, what they like, and amplify their persona.
−Removed: Zedge Premium, our marketplace, enables content creators,
−Removed: ranging the gamut from world class celebrities to emerging artists, to display their talent and sell their content to our users.
−Removed: “Shortz
−Removed: Chat Stories by Zedge,”
−Removed: which has been launched in beta, offers serialized, short-form fiction stories delivered as text-messaging
−Removed: conversations and more recently as mini-podcasts.
−Removed: Our Zedge app has been installed approximately 497
−Removed: million times, and at April 30, 2021, boasted approximately 34.5 million monthly active users, or MAU.
−Removed: MAU is a key performance indicator
−Removed: that captures the number of unique users that used our Zedge app during the previous 30-day of the relevant period.
−Removed: Our Zedge app has
−Removed: consistently ranked as one of the most popular free apps in the Google Play store in the United States.
−Removed: Historically, we have not made
−Removed: a material investment in paid user acquisition for our Zedge app.
−Removed: Our Zedge app’s success stems from its ability
−Removed: to meet consumer demand for a rich and diverse catalogue of both long-tail and popular content in a fun, intuitive and user-friendly fashion
−Removed: that aligns with their interest in expressing their essence in a bespoke manner, to offer reliable search and discovery capabilities and
−Removed: to make relevant content recommendations to our users.
−Removed: To this end, we invest heavily in both product design and development and the underlying
−Removed: technology required to satisfy both our Zedge app’s users’
−Removed: and content contributors’
−Removed: expectations.
−Removed: Our Zedge app utilizes
−Removed: both user-generated and licensed, third-party content to achieve these goals.
−Removed: In March 2018, we launched Zedge Premium, a marketplace
−Removed: within our Zedge app where professional creators and brands market, distribute and sell their digital content to our consumers.
−Removed: launching Zedge Premium, we have made and continue making material investments in optimizing our Zedge app’s homepage design in
−Removed: order to maximize exposure to premium content with the goal of driving sales.
−Removed: Over time, we expect that Zedge Premium will contribute
−Removed: to a virtuous cycle whereby it drives new consumers into our Zedge app resulting in more artist payouts, which in turn makes the platform
−Removed: more attractive for artists and brands looking to expand their reach and increase their income.
−Removed: In January 2019, we started offering paid subscriptions
−Removed: which, amongst other things, removed unsolicited advertisements from our Zedge app.
−Removed: As of April 30, 2021, we had approximately 753,000
−Removed: active subscribers.
−Removed: Beginning in fiscal 2021, we hope to further optimize the offer based on user type, geography and price point as well
−Removed: as introduce new subscription enhancements like content bundles and rewards.
−Removed: In December 2019, we completed the beta launch of
−Removed: ‘Shortz’
−Removed: our new entertainment app offering serialized, short-form fiction delivered in a text-message format across both
−Removed: Android and iOS, focusing on users in the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada and it is now available globally.
−Removed: Over the past several years, our Zedge app has experienced
−Removed: a decline in its MAU, with modest increases in certain periods, as well as a shift in the regional customer make-up with MAU in emerging
−Removed: markets representing an increasing portion of our user base.
−Removed: As of April 30, 2021, users in emerging markets represented 74% of our MAU
−Removed: compared to 69% a year prior.
−Removed: This shift impacts our business because emerging markets do not monetize as well as well-developed markets
−Removed: due to lower eCPMs and lower monthly and annual subscription rates in these regions coupled with lower priced subscriptions SKUs (Stock
−Removed: Keeping Unit).
−Removed: In the third quarter of fiscal 2021, users in emerging markets grew by 29.3% while users in well-developed economies declined
−Removed: 1.2% when compared to the same period in fiscal 2020.
−Removed: As of April 30, 2021, approximately 43% of our Zedge app’s user base was located
−Removed: in North America and Europe (including Eastern Europe) with a split of 21% and 22%, respectively, compared with 51% as of April 30, 2020
−Removed: with a split of 25% and 26%, respectively.
−Removed: MAU growth is tightly coupled with securing new
−Removed: Historically, our relatively high ranking in the Google Play store has been one of the primary drivers new user acquisition.
−Removed: still an important factor, we now also dedicate resources to growth initiatives, both organic and paid.
−Removed: With time, we believe that we
−Removed: can change our growth dynamic in well-developed markets.
−Removed: Aside from targeted growth initiatives, we need to continually improve the core
−Removed: user experience, test different mechanisms and content verticals that may spur growth and capitalize on the role that Zedge Premium artists
−Removed: can have on driving new users into the Zedge platform.
−Removed: The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our Zedge app’s
−Removed: new user growth.
−Removed: According to Gartner, a leading research and advisory company, new smartphone sales declined 10.5% in calendar year 2020
−Removed: as a result of the pandemic, negatively impacting new user growth, especially in well-developed markets.
−Removed: Gartner forecasts smartphone
−Removed: sales are expected to rebound in 2021 and there have been reports of a partial recovery, with sales still below 2019 levels.
−Removed: During the quarters ended April 30, 2021 and 2020,
−Removed: we generated approximately 80% and 72%, respectively, of our revenues from selling our Zedge app’s advertising inventory to advertising
−Removed: networks, advertising exchanges, and direct arrangements with advertisers.
−Removed: Advertising networks and advertising exchanges are third-party
−Removed: technology platforms that facilitate the buying and selling of media advertising inventory from multiple ad networks.
−Removed: The price of advertising
−Removed: inventory is fixed on an advertising network whereas the price for inventory is determined through real-time bidding on an advertising
−Removed: Advertisers are attracted to our Zedge app because of its sizable user base.
−Removed: In our Zedge Premium marketplace, the content owner
−Removed: sets the price and the user can purchase the content by paying for it with Zedge Credits, our closed virtual currency.
−Removed: A user can earn
−Removed: Zedge Credits when taking specific actions such as watching a rewarded video.
−Removed: Alternatively, users can buy Zedge Credits via an in-app
−Removed: If a user purchases Zedge Credits, Google Play or App Store keeps 30% of the purchase price with the remaining 70% being paid
−Removed: When a user purchases Zedge Premium content, the artist or brand receives 70% of the actual value of the Zedge Credits used to
−Removed: buy the content item as a royalty and we retain the remaining 30% as our fee, which we recognize as revenue.
−Removed: As Zedge Premium matures
−Removed: and expands, we expect to also diversify our revenue source mix.
−Removed: In January 2019, we started offering paid subscriptions
−Removed: which amongst other things removed unsolicited advertisements from our Zedge app.
−Removed: During the first 12 months after a customer’s
−Removed: sign up for the subscription-based product, Google retains up to 30% as a fee, which decreases to 15% from month 13 and beyond.
−Removed: April 30, 2021, we had approximately 753,000 active subscribers, 90% of which had subscribed on an annual basis.
−Removed: Since inception in January
−Removed: 2019, subscriptions have generated approximately $5.7 million in gross revenue.
−Removed: Critical Accounting Policies
−Removed: Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying
−Removed: notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or U.S.
−Removed: Our significant
−Removed: accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10-K.
−Removed: The preparation of financial
−Removed: statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and
−Removed: expenses as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
−Removed: Critical accounting policies are those that require application
−Removed: of management’s most subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change
−Removed: in subsequent periods.
−Removed: Our critical accounting policies include those related to capitalized software and technology development costs,
−Removed: revenue recognition and goodwill.
−Removed: Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and other factors that are believed
−Removed: to be reasonable under the circumstances.
−Removed: Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
−Removed: additional discussion of our critical accounting policies, see our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
−Removed: and Results of Operations in the Form 10-K.
−Removed: Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
−Removed: Recently issued
−Removed: accounting standards not yet adopted by us are more fully described in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1
−Removed: to Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
−Removed: The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in public health
−Removed: responses including travel bans, restrictions, social distancing requirements, and shelter-in place orders, which have negatively impacted
−Removed: our business, operations and financial performance.
−Removed: While we saw a significant decrease in advertising spend when the pandemic became
−Removed: global in March 2020, our daily advertising revenue has experienced a strong recovery since July 2020 through April 2021.
−Removed: We responded quickly and decisively to the challenges
−Removed: presented by the pandemic in order to ensure the long-term continuity of our service.
−Removed: Initially, we shifted resources and priorities and
−Removed: focused on streamlining our back-end infrastructure and specifically redesigning our content management system in order to better control
−Removed: costs while simultaneously establishing a scalable foundation for new growth initiatives, even at the expense of new product initiatives.
−Removed: At the outset of the pandemic, we instituted a hiring freeze which has subsequently been relaxed and we are starting to invest in new
−Removed: products, features, and enhancements.
−Removed: We expect to grow headcount by between 15% to 20% in calendar 2021, mostly in engineering, product
−Removed: and design to execute on our product development roadmap.
−Removed: Given the unprecedented uncertainty and rapidly
−Removed: shifting market conditions of the business environment, we cannot reasonably estimate the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our
−Removed: future financial and operational results.
−Removed: At this point it is unclear whether variables including the economy, unemployment, retail sales,
−Removed: and advertising budgets, or capital markets, including volatility of our stock price will impact our business.
−Removed: We continue to monitor
−Removed: the rapidly evolving situation and guidance from international and domestic authorities, including federal, state and local public health
−Removed: authorities, and there may be developments outside our control requiring us to adjust our operating plan.
−Removed: The risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic on
−Removed: our business are further described in Part I, Item 1A - Risk Factors of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
−Removed: July 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC.
−Removed: Key Performance Indicators
−Removed: The presentation of our results of operations
−Removed: includes disclosure of two key performance indicators - Monthly Active Users (MAU) and Average Revenue Per Monthly Active User (ARPMAU).
−Removed: MAU is a key performance indicator that captures the number of unique users that used our Zedge app during the previous 30-day period,
−Removed: which is important to understanding the size of the user base for the Company’s Zedge app which is a driver of revenue.
−Removed: and trends in MAU are useful for measuring the general health of our business, gauging both present and potential customers' experience,
−Removed: assessing the efficacy of product improvements and marketing campaigns and overall user engagement.
−Removed: ARPMAU is valuable because it provides
−Removed: insight into how well we monetize our users and, changes and trends in ARPMAU are indications of how effective our monetization investments
−Removed: MAU increased 19.8% in the third quarter of fiscal
−Removed: 2021 when compared to the same period a year ago and decreased 2.6% on a sequential basis.
−Removed: Over the past several years, we have experienced
−Removed: a continuing shift in our regional customer make-up with MAU in emerging markets representing an increasing portion of our user base.
−Removed: As of April 30, 2021, users in emerging markets represented 74% of our MAU compared to 69% a year prior.
−Removed: This shift impacts our business
−Removed: because emerging markets do not monetize as well as well-developed markets due to lower eCPMs and lower monthly and annual subscription
−Removed: rates in these regions coupled with lower priced subscriptions SKUs.
−Removed: However, ARPMAU for the three months ended April 30, 2021 was up
−Removed: 121% when compared to the same period a year ago, pointing to progress we have made in extracting more value from our users, particularly
−Removed: from paid subscriptions sales and improvement in ad optimization.
−Removed: ARPMAU decreased slightly on a sequential basis.

−Removed: Paid subscription revenue .
−Removed: We rolled out a subscription-based
−Removed: product on Android in January 2019, whereby users of our Zedge app could pay a monthly or annual fee to remove unsolicited ads when using

−Removed: change and we may test other plan and price variations.

−Removed: the three and nine months ended April 30, 2021, respectively, compared to three and nine months ended April 30, 2020.
−Removed: This increase was
−Removed: primarily attributable to higher compensation costs resulting from additional headcount and bonus accrual, higher payroll taxes resulting
−Removed: from option exercise activities as discussed below, higher professional fees and higher marketing costs associated with the approximately
−Removed: 23.4% average fee we pay to Google for subscription sales, offset by reductions in discretionary expenses.
−Removed: Norwegian NOK declined significantly
−Removed: to a historical low following the outbreak of Covid-19 in the three months ended April 30, 2020, as a result, SG&A expenses related
