"We are off to a very strong start in 2026, with first quarter revenue and adjusted EBITDA ahead of the high-end of our guidance and continued strong cash generation. Our performance reflects solid execution across both advertising and query revenues which saw similar rates of growth during the quarter," said Lin Song, CEO."Beyond our solid financial execution, we achieved major product and strategic milestones this quarter. We continue to redefine the browser's role in the AI era; and with the launch of Browser Connector we have turned the browser into a live execution layer, allowing the user's AI platform of choice to access and read page content, understand open tabs, and even take screenshots to analyze images or graphs. Beyond the technical upgrade, this also reinforces Opera's long-standing advocacy for user choice over lock-in. MiniPay also continued its rapid growth trajectory, promoting a healthy partner ecosystem and an expanding set of services tailored for emerging markets," continued Mr. Song.First Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights

Advertising revenue was driven by continued strong momentum from e-commerce partners, which remained the fastest-growing vertical.Query revenue grew 23% year-over-year to $58.3 million, accounting for 33% of total revenue and benefiting from both strong search performance and the evolution of our broader opportunities to address user queries.Opera had 288 million average monthly active users ("MAUs") across all products and services in the quarter, with annualized average revenue per user ("ARPU") of $2.43, an increase of 25% versus the first quarter of 2025.

(1)See the section below titled "Non-IFRS Financial Measures" for explanations of non-IFRS financial measures.(2)The percentages shown for adjusted EBITDA margin have been calculated based on the midpoints of the revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance."Our first quarter performance reflects the strong momentum in our business, with the resulting overperformance driving an incremental $4 million of revenue on top of the guidance range, with over 50% conversion to incremental adjusted EBITDA. The second quarter is shaping up in a similar way, allowing us to also raise our full-year expectations while still leaving room for later upside," said Frode Jacobsen, CFO."We remain focused on seizing our opportunities and advancing Opera's scale, however we take care to combine that with continued cost discipline and healthy profit expansion. We are pleased with our ability to return capital to shareholders through our recurring dividend and share repurchase programs," continued Mr. Jacobsen.Conference Call and Webcast InformationOpera's management will host a conference call to discuss the first quarter 2026 financial results at 8:00 a.m. ET today. The live webcast of the conference call can be accessed at our investor relations website at investor.opera.com, along with the earnings press release and financial tables. Following the call, a replay will be available at the same website.We also provide announcements on our investor relations website at investor.opera.com regarding our financial performance and other matters, including SEC filings, press releases, slide presentations, business blog posts and information on corporate governance.Non-IFRS Financial MeasuresIn addition to financial measures presented in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, we use the non-IFRS performance measures adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted diluted earnings per share, as well as the non-IFRS liquidity measure free cash flow from operations, to manage our business, evaluate performance, support planning and decision-making, and allocate resources. The non-IFRS performance measures are intended to provide supplemental information by excluding items that we believe are not representative of core business operating performance. While free cash flow from operations does not represent residual cash available for discretionary uses, we believe that it provides useful supplemental information regarding our ability to generate cash from ongoing operations to fund investments, including acquisitions, and to support capital allocation decisions.Adjusted net income is defined as net income adjusted to exclude (i) profit (loss) from discontinued operations, (ii) gain (loss) on investments in unconsolidated entities, (iii) non-recurring expenses, (iv) impairment of non-financial assets, (v) amortization of acquired intangible assets, (vi) share-based compensation expenses, and (vii) the income tax effect of these adjustments. Adjusted net income margin is calculated as adjusted net income divided by revenue. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is calculated as adjusted net income divided by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding.Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income adjusted to exclude (i) profit (loss) from discontinued operations, (ii) income tax expense, (iii) net finance income (expense), (iv) gain (loss) on long-term investments in unconsolidated entities, (v) non-recurring expenses, (vi) impairment of non-financial assets, (vii) depreciation and amortization, (viii) share-based compensation expenses, and (ix) other operating income. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.Free cash flow from operations is defined as net cash flows from (used in) operating activities less (i) purchases of fixed and intangible assets, (ii) development expenditure and (iii) payment of lease liabilities.We believe these non-IFRS financial measures are useful to investors because they facilitate period-to-period comparisons of operating performance and are consistent with how management evaluates the business. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for, or superior to, the financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. Our definitions of adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted diluted earnings per share and free cash flow from operations may differ from similarly-titled measures used by other companies. In addition, these measures may be limited in their usefulness because they do not present the full economic effects of certain items of income, expenses and cash flows. We address the limitations of these non-IFRS financial measures by providing reconciliations from the most closely comparable IFRS financial measures in the section titled "Reconciliations of Non-IFRS Financial Measures" included at the end of this earnings press release. Investors are encouraged to review these reconciliations and to consider non-IFRS financial measures together with our IFRS results.Forward-Looking StatementsThis press release contains statements of a forward-looking nature.

Opera introduces MCP Connector for Neon browser to enable AI integrationsMarch 31, 2026 11:08 AM
IH Market News
Opera (NASDAQ:OPRA) has unveiled a new MCP Connector for its Opera Neon browser, allowing external artificial intelligence tools to connect directly to the browser and perform actions within a user’s active browsing session.According to the Norwegian browser developer, the connector allows AI platforms such as Claude, ChatGPT, Lovable, n8n, and OpenClaw to access real-time web context and carry out tasks inside the browser environment rather than functioning independently.Through the Model Context Protocol (MCP) endpoint, connected AI systems can view browser information including open tabs, page content, and authenticated sessions. The integration also enables AI clients to perform tasks such as navigating websites, extracting information, taking screenshots, completing forms, opening new tabs, and conducting searches.“Last year, we launched Browser Operator as a first step toward an agentic browser. Now we are opening those capabilities to external AI clients through MCP, so they can act directly inside the browser, not outside it,” said Monika Kurczynska, Director of R&D for browser AI at Opera.Opera said the new feature is designed to eliminate workflow disruptions that occur when users must copy content between browser tabs or repeatedly provide context when switching between AI tools and web pages.To safeguard user sessions, the company implemented a secure MCP server URL authorization system that controls how AI clients access browser activity. A persistent proxy layer helps maintain connection stability and provides status updates if the browser becomes temporarily unavailable.The MCP Connector builds on Opera Neon’s existing capabilities for executing browser-based actions. The company highlighted potential use cases including software development testing, design prototyping, and workflow automation.The feature is currently available to Opera Neon subscribers, while Opera plans to roll out a simplified version of the connector in its main Opera One and Opera GX browsers in the future.Opera stock price

160M CELO Allocation Proposal To Grow Opera From Distribution Partner into Key Network StakeholderMarch 19, 2026 9:24 AM
PR Newswire (US)

Subject to Celo community governance approval, Opera will receive an allocation of 160M CELO as a grant for distribution services, further deepening Opera's alignment with the long-term success of Celo, the leading Layer 2 by Daily Active Users with 700K+Opera's MiniPay leverages Celo's fast, low-cost payment rails, and unique technical benefits like fee abstraction and phone number mapping resulting in 14M account registrations and 420M transactions on Celo blockchainOver 50 million Opera users who have earned rewards in recent months to redeem them as USD? on MiniPay, accelerating the wallet's growth on CeloOSLO, Norway, March 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Opera (NASDAQ: OPRA), a leading global browser and AI agent company, and Celo Core Co., stewards of Celo, the Ethereum Layer 2 built for the real world with the leading programmable rails for global finance, today announced the commercial framework for their continued partnership, subject to Celo community governance approval. The partnership model is based on an allocation of 160 million CELO to Opera, which will in turn enable Opera's continued deep integration and distribution of Celo stablecoins and, further establishing Opera's long-term incentive to support the success of the ecosystem as a key stakeholder.







The agreed terms have been submitted to the Celo community forum for approval, consistent with the network's decentralized treasury governance model. The restructured terms reflect the scale and maturity of the partnership, and Opera's genuine belief in and commitment to the long-term value of the Celo ecosystem and its native governance token, CELO.The announcement marks the latest development in Opera's nearly five-year partnership with the Celo ecosystem, which began in June 2021. From this early partnership milestone, Opera and key Celo contributors have driven rapid adoption of accessible stablecoin payments following the launch of MiniPay in September 2023. In December 2025, Opera and Celo announced an extension of their strategic partnership to provide financial inclusion to a billion people by 2030.Since MiniPay's launch, Opera and Celo have expanded the self-custodial stablecoin wallet to serve 66+ countries, facilitating over 420 million transactions, and growing to more than 14 million account registrations. With MiniPay as a core driver, Celo has emerged as the leading global financial rails for everyday stablecoin adoption, positioned as the leading Ethereum Layer 2 by daily active users and strongest transport layer for USD? with 700,000+ Daily Active Users and 4.23+ million Weekly Active USD? Users.That growth reflects the fit between MiniPay's target markets and the payment infrastructure Celo was purpose-built to provide. Launched on mainnet Earth Day 2020 with architecture optimized for mobile-first, real-world financial use cases, Celo offers a full suite of tools optimized for speed, low cost, and accessibility at scale. Among the most consequential features for consumer adoption are fee abstraction, which allows users to pay transaction costs in ERC-20 tokens like stablecoins rather than a native gas token, and phone number-to-wallet mapping, which abstracts the complexity for blockchain addresses.The three-year agreement grows Opera from distribution partner to a network stakeholder, and aligns Opera's and MiniPay's success with the network's over the long run. The partnership also carries a significant near-term growth catalyst: over 50 million Opera browser users have earned rewards and are positioned to redeem them as USD? within MiniPay."Our partnership with Opera has evolved significantly over nearly five years, and we're proud to take this next step together as our joint mission of accessible, effective stablecoin solutions becomes a reality for users worldwide," said Rene Reinsberg, Celo co-founder. "The path toward a billion-dollar onchain economy has never been so clear, and Opera's belief in CELO reaffirms our joint commitment to the ecosystem reaching this goal.""Celo's infrastructure and mission-aligned ecosystem have been instrumental in our work building and scaling powerful mobile financial technology with MiniPay," said Jørgen Arnesen, EVP Mobile, Opera. "Through this continued partnership, we're making a long-term commitment to the Celo ecosystem and to bringing that utility to our global user base."Opera and Celo Core Co. will build their presence in Latin America and Southeast Asia with a roadshow to drive grassroots adoption and grow the Mini App ecosystem, beginning in Vietnam and the Philippines next month.To learn more about Celo and Opera, visit celo.org and opera.com.Download MiniPay on Google Play and iOS App Store today.About Opera

Across all integrations, more than 153 million USD was sent or received through MiniPay in December, underscoring growing demand for stable, dollar-based payments in mobile-first regions."Tether's mission has always been to provide simple, reliable access to stable value for people who need it most," said Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether. "By supporting USDT and XAU?0 in MiniPay, we're helping create tools that make digital assets genuinely useful, whether for sending money, saving in dollars, or protecting value in gold. Financial inclusion is not just about technology; it's about building systems that work for everyday life.""Integrating USDT directly into MiniPay turns smartphone reach into real financial access," said Jørgen Arnesen, EVP Mobile at Opera. "Millions of users are now holding, sending, and saving in digital dollars seamlessly, often for the first time. MiniPay brings stable, on-chain money to the people who need it most."In addition to USDT, MiniPay supports Tether Gold, a token representing ownership of physical gold, through its support for XAU?0. With gold prices rising nearly 50% in 2025, XAU?0 offers households an accessible and inflation-resistant savings option. Users can convert part of their balance into XAU?0 with a single tap, maintaining liquidity while preserving value.Tether Gold remains one of the most established tokenized real-world assets, providing a transparent, on-chain bridge between traditional value stores and the emerging digital economy.Tether's ongoing commitment to transparency, liquidity, and accessibility continues to expand the real-world use of stablecoins.

I never traded OPRA per pm request...although you mentioned ORA, i'm thinking it was a typo...

Oh wow that browser crypto buying news is major ... at least to me it is.

Is this new class action going to affect OPRA price? OPRA Class Action

Hi OTC Buyer,

I am happy to shoot you a filed complaint and discuss further. Please email me at jgrabar@grabarlaw.com

Thank you,

Josh

I sent an email to KMLLP and never heard back. So what are these attorneys doing for those holders anyways???

Did you buy OPRA between July 27, 2018 and January 15, 2020? As you know, it is alleged that OPRA failed to disclose that: (i) Opera had significantly overstated market opportunities and expected growth trends for its browser applications; (ii) Opera’s businesses relied on predatory lending practices; (iii) these facts, once revealed, were reasonably likely to have a material negative impact on Opera’s financial prospects, especially with respect to its lending applications’ continued availability on Google’s Play Store; and (iv) as a result, the defendants’ statements violated the federal securities laws.

If you would like to learn more about the matter and how you might benefit, including the possibility of court awarded incentive awards, message me here or contact me at jgrabar@grabarlaw.com

Thank you,

Josh

Possible correction to that short report or a dead cat bounce? If correction could see a squeeze. Still have my daughter’s shares. Like I said I have her in it for a 10 year hold at least. GLTA

OTC Buyer Fascinating reading in my view.

Now another $50 million buy back ... 50 is better than 1. Glad to see company taking action after that short report.

Interesting that they say they are short on this stock and push this negative report .... and this in disclaimer too:

...Hindenburg Research is not registered as an investment advisor in the United States or have similar registration in any other jurisdiction...

$OPRA Very Bullish pattern establishing in Opera ltd

From a charting perspective NASDAQ:OPRA is starting to look very attractive.
After a initial IPO sell off the stock has formed a base and is now stepping its way back up on good volume .
RSI , MACD , and the OBV are very positive.
Price has bullishly broken the cloud resistance.
Please also take into account the earnings release from May22nd, below is a transcript of the CEO comments within the call in which he outlines the BEAT and also RAISES guidance
"Let me now get into the quarter and guidance and then we will open it up for questions. Opera had a record revenue quarter reaching $51.3 million, up 30% versus the year ago quarter. Search revenue represented 40% of the total or $20.6 million, up 2% year-over-year or up 5% on a constant currency basis. As communicated over the past year, while we expect Search to continue to grow, we expect it to become the smaller share of our revenue over time. Search is already a pretty well optimized revenue source for us with the revenue as a function of our search partners monetization as well as our own browser user base footprint.

Advertising revenue was 29% of the total or $14.1 million, up 10% year-over-year. This growth was driven by increased user numbers as we have been prioritizing user growth over monetization."
Fin-tech revenue, which is a new revenue category, represented 13% of total revenue or $6.5 million. This scaled significantly from the fourth quarter when we acquired OKash and we expect it to be a growing percentage of revenue going forward. Retail revenue represented 13% of total or $6.8 million, in other words, quite stable versus last quarter.

With that said, we are raising our expectation for 2019 revenue. Our increased range is $230 million to $240 million representing year-over-year growth of 34% to 39%. This compares to our prior range of $220 million to $230 million, and for now reflects moderate increases in monetization, limited gains from browser product initiatives, and finally some contribution from taking micro lending to new markets. We are also guiding for adjusted EBITDA between $30 million to $45 million for the year."
