Banzai International, Inc. (
NASDAQ: BNZI)
(“Banzai” or the “Company”), a leading marketing technology company
that provides essential marketing and sales solutions, today
announced a business update that includes December 2023 Annual
Recurring Revenue (“ARR”), the execution of a non-binding letter of
intent (the “LOI”) to acquire Mixed Analytics as well as the
Company’s target December 2024 ARR.
Banzai has estimated its December 2023 ARR at
$4.6 million. Banzai selected ARR as a key performance metric next
to GAAP measures, as it annualizes contracted recurring revenue
components of term subscriptions and represents a key metric on
which the Company evaluates potential targets under its acquisition
strategy.
“We are excited to report an uptick in ARR
toward the end of last year and look forward to the growth ahead of
us,” said Mark Musburger, CFO of Banzai. “While we
will report our Full Year 2024 earnings after we complete the year,
we believe the market will benefit from an update on an important
performance measurement to help assess our business at this point
and going forward.”
Acquisition of Mixed Analytics Would
Further Strengthen Suite of Integrated MarTech
Solutions
Banzai also announced today that is has signed a
non-binding LOI to acquire Mixed Analytics, a data analytics
solution that offers an API Connector, enabling users to turn
Google Sheets into a data pipeline for direct API data importation
from numerous sources like Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Mailchimp
and more. Mixed Analytics helps marketers solve the problem of
consistent, flexible data integration to Google Sheets.
The profitable and growing company was founded
in 2012 and serves customers from various industries including
HubSpot, Google, eBay, Monday.com, L’Oreal and Coinbase. Banzai
intends to integrate the capabilities of Mixed Analytics with other
Banzai products as part of the Company’s acquisition and
cross-selling strategy.
Ana Kravitz, Founder of Mixed Analytics,
commented: "Mixed Analytics was built to make API data
more accessible and easier to navigate. It allows marketers to pull
marketing and sales data from thousands of applications into their
spreadsheets so they can analyze their data and uncover insights in
one place. I'm excited about the possibility of Mixed Analytics
joining Banzai's portfolio. Their expertise in marketing technology
and data-driven solutions makes it the perfect home for the future
of Mixed Analytics."
End-of-Year 2024 Target
Banzai targets December 2024 ARR to be $8.1 -
$10 million, based on the Company’s December 2023 ARR, organic
growth during the year as demonstrated by January 2024 customer
wins and reactivations, and currently signed non-binding LOIs to
acquire IGLeads, Cliently, Boast and Mixed Analytics. The targeted
December 2024 ARR does not include any additional intended
acquisitions.
The midpoint target, or $9.1 million, foresees a
97% increase in ARR, which would be equally attributable to organic
growth and the acquisitions currently under LOI. Banzai’s
management anticipates tracking the Company’s progress to its
targeted December 2024 ARR as part of the Company’s 2024 quarterly
earnings reports.
“We continue to believe that 2024 will be a
breakout year for Banzai. We’ve signed over 150 new customers in
January alone and have signed LOIs to acquire four mission-critical
MarTech companies,” said Joe Davy, CEO and Founder of
Banzai. “Additionally, we are seeing a robust pipeline for
potential future acquisitions, as the trend for consolidation in
our industry is gaining momentum.”

normalized on an annual basis, that Banzai expects to receive from
