Zedge's Tapedeck Adds Betty Wright's Catalog in Agreement With the Late Soul Legend's EstateJune 17, 2026 4:10 PM
ACCESS NewswireThe first Black woman to go gold on her own label joins a service built on the principle she lived by: artists should own their work and get paid fairly. Timed to Juneteenth.NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / June 17, 2026 / Zedge, Inc. (NYSE American:ZDGE), $ZDGE, a company that builds and operates creator communities serving 20 million monthly active users, today announced an agreement with the estate of Betty Wright to bring the late soul legend's catalog to the platform, available now and timed to Juneteenth.Wright, who died in 2020 at 66, was a six-time Grammy nominee best known for her 1971 hit "Clean Up Woman" - a record sampled by Mary J. Blige, SWV, Afrika Bambaataa, and Chance the Rapper, among others. She won a Grammy in 1975 for "Where Is the Love" and produced Joss Stone's Grammy-nominated Mind, Body & Soul. But one credential made her the right fit for Tapedeck: in 1988, on her own imprint Ms. B Records, she became the first Black woman to earn a gold record on a label she owned.That history maps directly onto Tapedeck's model. Every stream pays a minimum of a penny - the floor, not the ceiling - and fans can choose to pay more. Rights holders receive 80% of whatever a fan spends, on every stream and purchase. For Wright's catalog, 80 cents of every dollar flows to her estate."Betty Wright was running the Tapedeck thesis forty years before Tapedeck existed - she just had to do it the hard way," said Tim Quirk, SVP of Product at Zedge, who launched Tapedeck after earlier stints helping build Rhapsody and Google Play Music. "The worst thing a service can do with a legacy artist is treat the catalog like inventory."Betty's eldest daughter, Namphuyo Aisha McCray, explained how Tapedeck's model feels like an extension of her mother's vision: "My mother believed that artists should own their art, protect their creative vision, and connect directly with their fans without barriers. She spent years sharing that message and helping independent artists reclaim their power. We are honored to carry that mission forward - ensuring that the next generation of artists has the freedom, ownership, and connection to thrive on their own terms."The agreement extends a run of recent Tapedeck licensing deals including Cinq Music, Tuff Gong Distribution, and BWL Entertainment. Tapedeck launched on iOS in the U.S. in fall 2025, with Android, web, and international expansion underway in 2026.Tapedeck and the estate will mark the launch with a private, invitation-only gathering for the music and licensing community in Wright's hometown of Miami on June 17, 2026. Wright's children - singers in their own right - will perform and share remembrances alongside remarks from the Tapedeck team and a video tribute. Celebrating Wright on a weekend about freedom and self-determination, in the city where she built her own house in an industry that wasn't designed to accommodate her, is the point.About Tapedeck Tapedeck is a pay-as-you-go music streaming and download service from Zedge that lets artists and rights holders set their own prices, with a penny-per-play floor and no ceiling. There are no subscription fees; fans pay only for what they play and can always choose to pay artists more. Tapedeck pays licensors 80% of all fan spending. The service launched on iOS in the U.S. in 2025, with broader platform and international availability rolling out in 2026.About Zedge Zedge builds and operates creator communities that serve 20 million monthly active users across its platforms.

Zedge Reports Third Quarter Fiscal 2026 ResultsJune 11, 2026 4:10 PM
ACCESS NewswireSubscription revenue increased 32%, and active subscriptions1 grew 41% to nearly 1.3 millionARPMAU1 for the Zedge Marketplace increased 21% to $0.119; Zedge Premium GTV1 increased 17%GAAP net income of $0.9 million; free cash flow2 increased 55% year over yearDataSeeds.AI fulfilled first six-figure order, demonstrating enterprise-scale execution capabilityNEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / June 11, 2026 / Zedge, Inc. (NYSE American:ZDGE), $ZDGE, a company that builds and operates creator communities serving 20 million monthly active users, today announced results for its third quarter fiscal 2026, ended April 30, 2026.Jonathan Reich, Zedge's CEO, commented:"In our third quarter, we continued to demonstrate that the core Zedge Marketplace business is resilient and becoming more efficient. Subscription revenue grew 32% year over year, and active subscriptions reached nearly 1.3 million, both continuing a multi-quarter trend. ARPMAU increased 21%, and Zedge Premium GTV increased 17%, reflecting the benefits of our ongoing focus on acquiring and retaining higher-value users. While total advertising revenue declined year over year, that decline was entirely attributable to Emojipedia, which we are managing for overall return in light of Google's changes to its search results page. Within the Zedge Marketplace, advertising revenue was essentially flat year over year, a resilient result given that the prior year benefited from a one-time integration bonus from an ad platform partner. Encouragingly, iOS revenue within the Zedge Marketplace grew 35% year over year, reinforcing our message that, as we attract and monetize higher-value users in premium markets, the quality of our revenue continues to improve."On the DataSeeds.AI front, I am excited to report that we fulfilled our first six-figure order this quarter stemming from an existing customer relationship with a leading technology company. At the same time, we are beginning to see interest from new prospects, which strengthens our confidence in this offernig. This milestone reflects our growing capacity to deepen customer relationships and scale production. While revenue remains lumpy at this stage, successfully delivering projects of this size, on spec and within tight timeframes, is a necessary capability for DataSeeds' future growth."Our Innovation Team continues to advance - with four alpha products now live, and we remain on track to achieve our goal of six alpha launches this fiscal year. Our framework remains consistent: pre-validate, build fast, measure against clear KPIs and invest in the winners while quickly ceasing to spend on those that do not meet our criteria. Each launch compounds the next, as reusable infrastructure and lessons from prior releases shorten our time-to-market."Financially, cash flow from operations increased over 40%, while free cash flow increased 55% year over year to $1.2 million and is now up 10% year to date, and our cash and cash equivalents balance strengthened to $19.7 million with no debt. We also increased our quarterly dividend by 25% during the quarter, opportunistically repurchased shares when conditions warranted and invested in innovation, all without compromising our strong balance sheet. Subsequent to quarter's end, our board added $2 million to our existing share repurchase authorization, bringing total available capacity to approximately $2.2 million, reflecting our continued confidence in the value of our shares."Third Quarter Highlights (fiscal 2026 versus fiscal 2025)Revenue increased 3.0% to $8.0 million;GAAP operating income of $1.1 million, compared to $0.2 million;GAAP net income and diluted EPS of $0.9 million and $0.07, compared to $0.2 million and $0.01, respectively;Non-GAAP net income and diluted Non-GAAP EPS of $1.0 million and $0.07, compared to $0.9 million and $0.06, respectively;Free cash flow of $1.2 million, compared to $0.8 million;Adjusted EBITDA2 of $1.3 million, compared to $1.2 million;ARPMAU increased 21.2% to $0.119;Zedge Premium GTV increased 16.6%;Active subscriptions increased 40.6% to nearly 1.3 million;Deferred revenue of $6.2 million, up 25.7% year over year;Cash and cash equivalents were $19.7 million at quarter's end;Paid a quarterly dividend of $0.02 per share.Third Quarter Select Financial Metrics: FY26 versus FY25*($ in MM except for per share amounts) Q3 '26 Q3 '25 Change YTD '26 YTD '25 Change Total Revenue $8.0 $7.8 3.0% $23.9 $21.9 8.8%Advertising Revenue $5.4 $5.6 -4.0% $16.1 $15.1 6.1%Digital Goods and Services Revenue $0.5 $0.5 6.9% $1.5 $1.7 -12.3%Subscription Revenue $1.7 $1.3 31.9% $4.8 $3.7 31.1%Other Revenue $0.5 $0.4 4.6% $1.4 $1.4 4.9%GAAP Operating Income (Loss) $1.1 $0.2 571.3% $(0.9) $(2.5) 64.1%Operating Margin 13.4% 2.1% -3.8% -11.5% GAAP Net Income (Loss) $0.9 $0.2 400.5% $(0.6) $(1.8) 68.7%GAAP Diluted EPS $0.07 $0.01 600.0% $(0.05) $(0.13) 61.5%Non-GAAP Net Income $1.0 $0.9 12.0% $2.6 $0.6 322.6%Non-GAAP Diluted EPS $0.07 $0.06 17.7% $0.20 $0.04 342.1%Cash Flow from Operations $1.2 $0.9 40.3% $2.9 $2.7 5.7%Free Cash Flow $1.2 $0.8 54.9% $2.6 $2.4 9.7%Adjusted EBITDA $1.3 $1.2 1.0% $3.6 $1.5 146.6%Shares Repurchased (M) 0.08 0.22 0.33 0.68 nm = not measurable/meaningful

As Zedge Premium is an internal focus for growth, we believe this metric will help investors evaluate our progress in growing this part of our business.Average Revenue Per Monthly Active User for our Zedge Marketplace, or ARPMAU, is useful in evaluating how well we monetize our user base.An Active Subscription is a subscription that has commenced and not been canceled, including paused subscriptions and subscriptions in free trials, grace periods, or account hold. This is important because it is a source of recurring revenue.2 Throughout this release, Non-GAAP Net Income, Non-GAAP EPS, Free Cash Flow (FCF) and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures intended to provide useful information that supplements Zedge's results in accordance with GAAP. Please refer to the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures at the end of this release for an explanation of Zedge's formulations of Non-GAAP Net Income, Non-GAAP EPS, Free Cash Flow and Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

Zedge Provides Shareholder Update on Capital Return InitiativesJune 8, 2026 6:30 AM
ACCESS NewswireAdds $2 Million to Existing Class B Common Stock Repurchase Authorization; Announces Quarterly Dividend Payment DetailsNEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / June 8, 2026 / Zedge, Inc. (NYSE American:ZDGE), $ZDGE, a company that builds and operates creator communities serving 20 million monthly active users, today announced its Board of Directors approved a $2.0 million increase to the existing share repurchase authorization for its Class B common stock. This new authorization adds to the previously approved $5.0 million share repurchase authorization, under which the Company has bought back almost 1.5 million shares of its class B common stock for approximately $4.8 million as of June 4, 2026. The Board of Directors also approved payment of the Company's $0.02 quarterly dividend.Jonathan Reich, Zedge's CEO commented:"Having substantially completed our prior $5.0 million share repurchase program, our Board has authorized a $2.0 million increase to the prior authorization, reflecting our continued belief that our shares are undervalued and represent an attractive use of capital and our ongoing commitment to returning capital to shareholders through multiple channels. Zedge generates consistent free cash flow, is debt-free and that balance sheet strength is precisely what gives us the flexibility to execute a multifaceted capital return strategy. Earlier this fiscal year we initiated our first-ever dividend and just recently raised it 25%, and today's repurchase authorization is the next expression of that same discipline. What I want shareholders to understand is that none of this comes at the expense of growth. We are actively investing in DataSeeds, our Product Innovation Team and the broader Zedge platform, and we are funding all of it from cash flow without touching the balance sheet."Dividend Details:Quarterly Dividend Amount: $0.02 per share of class B common stock, representing an annualized dividend of $0.08 per share;Record Date: June 22, 2026;Payment Date: June 30, 2026.Purchases under the program will be made from time to time, as permitted by securities laws and through, at the Company's discretion, open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or other paths. The Company will determine the timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases subject to economic and market conditions, stock price, applicable legal requirements and other factors. In furtherance of the buyback, the Company plans to enter into a "Rule 10b5-1 plan" to allow for continuous repurchases of its Class B common stock regardless of the Company's trading window restrictions.About ZedgeZedge builds and operates creator communities that serve 20 million monthly active users across its platforms.

Revenue increased 18% year over year, driven by seasonal strength combined with strong advertising and subscription optimization. Subscription revenue increased 33%, active subscriptions reached a record 1.2 million, ARPMAU increased 48% to a record $0.115 and Zedge Premium GTV also reached a new quarterly high. These results reflect continued improvement in the quality of our revenue and our ability to monetize our audience more effectively, even as overall MAU1 trended lower."Innovation remains a central focus across the organization. Within our current portfolio, we are excited by the prospects for DataSeeds as the demand for high-quality AI training data is substantial and not likely to slow down any time soon. DataSeeds continues to generate interest from both new and existing customers, including repeat customers placing larger orders. While revenue remains early-stage and lumpy given the limited number of deals, the pipeline is expanding, and we are investing thoughtfully to support that growth."For Tapedeck, we are currently focusing on expanding the music catalog. Separately, our Innovation Team recently launched two new alpha products as part of our commitment to introduce up to six alphas this fiscal year, placing us halfway toward that goal. Our framework is disciplined - launch quickly, measure performance against clear thresholds and invest behind the opportunities that demonstrate traction This approach increases our shots on goal while maintaining thoughtful capital allocation."Financially, free cash flow2 increased 31% year over year to $0.8 million.

It also allows readers and potential advertisers to evaluate the size of our user base.Zedge Premium Gross Transaction Value, or GTV, is the total dollar amount of transactions conducted through Zedge Premium. As Zedge Premium is an internal focus for growth, we believe this metric will help investors evaluate our progress in growing this part of our business.Average Revenue Per Monthly Active User for our Zedge Marketplace, or ARPMAU, is useful in evaluating how well we monetize our user base.An Active Subscription is a subscription that has commenced and not been canceled, including paused subscriptions and subscriptions in free trials, grace periods, or account hold. This is important because it is a source of recurring revenue.2 Throughout this release, Non-GAAP Net Income, Non-GAAP EPS, Free Cash Flow (FCF) and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures intended to provide useful information that supplement Zedge's results in accordance with GAAP. Please refer to the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial measures at the end of this release for an explanation of Zedge's formulations of Non-GAAP Net Income, Non-GAAP EPS, Free Cash Flow and Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.Trended Financial Information*(in M except for EPS, ARPMAU, Paid Subscriptions) Q125 Q225 Q325 Q425 Q126 Q226 FY24 FY25 YTD FY26 Total Revenue $7.2 $7.0 $7.8 $7.5 $7.6 $8.3 $30.1 $29.4 $15.9 Advertising Revenue $4.9 $4.7 $5.6 $5.2 $5.2 $5.6 $21.0 $20.3 $10.7 Digital Goods and Services Revenue $0.6 $0.6 $0.5 $0.5 $0.5 $0.5 $3.5 $2.2 $1.0 Subscription Revenue $1.2 $1.2 $1.3 $1.4 $1.5 $1.6 $4.3 $5.1 $3.2 Other Revenue $0.5 $0.4 $0.4 $0.4 $0.5 $0.5 $1.2 $1.8 $1.0 GAAP Operating Income (Loss) $(0.5) $(2.2) $0.2 $(0.7) $0.9 $(2.9) $(11.8) $(3.2) $(2.0)GAAP Net Income (Loss) $(0.3) $(1.7) $0.2 $(0.6) $0.8 $(2.3) $(9.2) $(2.4) $(1.5)GAAP Diluted EPS (Loss per share) $(0.02) $(0.12) $0.01 $(0.04) $0.06 $(0.18) $(0.65) $(0.17) $(0.12)Non GAAP Net Income (Loss) $(0.0) $(0.2) $0.9 $0.1 $0.9 $0.8 $1.8 $0.7 $1.7 Non-GAAP Diluted EPS (Loss per share) $(0.00) $(0.01) $0.06 $0.00 $0.07 $0.06 $0.13 $0.05 $0.12 Cash Flow from Operations $1.2 $0.7 $0.9 $0.7 $0.8 $0.9 $5.9 $3.4 $1.7 Free Cash Flow $1.0 $0.6 $0.8 $0.5 $0.6 $0.8 $4.7 $2.9 $1.4 Adjusted EBITDA $0.3 $(0.1) $1.2 $0.3 $1.2 $1.1 $4.7 $1.8 $2.3 MAU 25.0 24.7 22.1 23.2 22.2 20.4 nm nm nm Well-developed Markets 5.5 5.6 5.2 5.4 4.9 4.8 nm nm nm Emerging Markets 19.5 19.1 16.9 17.8 17.3 15.6 nm nm nm Active Subscriptions (in 000s) 698 791 896 984 1,075 1,175 nm nm nm ARPMAU $0.077 $0.078 $0.099 $0.093 $0.099 $0.115 nm nm nm Zedge Premium - GTV $0.68 $0.68 $0.61 $0.64 $0.66 $0.79 $2.15 $2.62 $1.44 Shares Repurchased 0.22 0.24 0.22 0.64 0.24 0.01 0.21 1.32 0.25 nm = not measurable/meaningful

Our management also believes these measures are useful in evaluating our core operating results. However, these are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income or operating income/margin as an indicator of our operating performance or to net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Numbers in the following reconciliation tables may not add due to rounding.Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income (Loss) Q125 Q225 Q325 Q425 Q126 Q226 FY24 FY25 YTD FY26 Net Income (Loss) $(0.3) $(1.7) $0.2 $(0.6) $0.8 $(2.3) $(9.2) $(2.4) $(1.5)Excluding: Interest and other income (expense), net $(0.2) $(0.2) $(0.2) $(0.2) $(0.2) $(0.1) $(0.6) $(0.7) $(0.3)Income tax expense (benefit) $0.0 $(0.5) $0.1 $(0.0) $0.2 $(0.6) $(2.2) $(0.3) $(0.4)Depreciation and amortization $0.4 $0.3 $0.2 $0.2 $0.2 $0.2 $2.5 $1.1 $0.4 EBITDA $(0.1) $(2.0) $0.3 $(0.5) $1.1 $(2.8) $(9.5) $(2.2) $(1.8)Adjustments: Asset impairments and restructuring charges $0.0 $1.3 $0.6 $0.6 $0.0 $3.7 $12.0 $2.5 $3.7 Stock-based compensation $0.4 $0.6 $0.3 $0.1 $0.1 $0.3 $2.1 $1.4 $0.4 Expenses related to restructuring activities and business combination $0.0 $0.0 $0.0 $0.1 $0.0 $0.0 $0.2 $0.1 $0.0 Adjusted EBITDA $0.3 $(0.1) $1.2 $0.3 $1.2 $1.1 $4.7 $1.8 $2.3 *numbers may not add due to roundingReconciliation of GAAP Net Income (Loss) to Non-GAAP Net Income Q125 Q225 Q325 Q425 Q126 Q226 FY24 FY25 YTD FY26 GAAP Net Income (Loss) $(0.3) $(1.7) $0.2 $(0.6) $0.8 $(2.3) $(9.2) $(2.4) $(1.5)Adjustments: Asset impairments and restructuring charges $0.0 $1.3 $0.6 $0.6 $0.0 $3.7 $12.0 $2.5 $3.7 Stock-based compensation $0.4 $0.6 $0.3 $0.1 $0.1 $0.3 $2.1 $1.4 $0.4 Expenses related to restructuring activities and business combination $0.0 $0.0 $0.0 $0.1 $0.0 $0.0 $0.2 $0.1 $0.0 Income tax effect on non-GAAP items $(0.1) $(0.4) $(0.2) $(0.2) $(0.0) $(0.9) $(3.3) $(0.9) $(0.9)Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) $(0.0) $(0.2) $0.9 $0.1 $0.9 $0.8 $1.8 $0.7 $1.7 Non-GAAP basic EPS (loss per share) $(0.00) $(0.01) $0.06 $0.00 $0.07 $0.06 $0.13 $0.05 $0.13 Non-GAAP diluted EPS (loss per share) $(0.00) $(0.01) $0.06 $0.00 $0.07 $0.06 $0.13 $0.05 $0.12 Weighted average shares used to compute Non-GAAP basic earnings per share 14.1 13.9 13.7 13.4 13.0 13.0 14.1 13.7 13.0 Weighted average shares used to compute Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share 14.1 13.9 13.9 13.4 13.3 13.0 14.1 13.7 13.3 *numbers may not add due to roundingFree Cash Flow Calculation Q125 Q225 Q325 Q425 Q126 Q2260 FY24 FY25 YTD FY26 Cash Flow from Operations $1.2 $0.7 $0.9 $0.7 $0.8 $0.9 $5.9 $3.4 $1.7 Capital Expenditures $0.2 $0.1 $0.1 $0.2 $0.2 $0.1 $1.2 $0.5 $0.3 Free Cash Flow $1.0 $0.6 $0.8 $0.5 $0.6 $0.8 $4.7 $2.9 $1.4 SOURCE: Zedge, Inc.View the original press release on ACCESS NewswireOriginal: Zedge Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2026 Results
