Exhibit 99.1


Dear Shareholders,						Philip Moyer, CEO .

I joined Vimeo three months ago because I saw significant potential at the intersection of video and AI for Vimeo's millions of users and a wildly underappreciated Vimeo Enterprise SaaS product, serving thousands of businesses and on track to break a $100 million annualized bookings run rate. We currently host over 8 billion minutes of video assets on our platform and our understanding of customer workflows, integrations, and AI, like our recently announced AI-powered video translation solution, will continue to make our customers' video creations even more rewarding. In Q2, Workday, Mazda, Goodyear and The Church of England all signed up for Vimeo Enterprise, and we just expanded our enterprise services into China, where we are already supporting some of the world's largest companies in securely streaming their protected video assets.

Our customers are not only demanding individual creators who want to provide high-quality video, but also the world's largest companies who need to protect their customer data and control the end-to-end video experience. For example, Santander, one of the largest financial services providers in the UK, adopted Vimeo’s browser-based live event tools in 2022, allowing them to package events with a mix of content, from a live panel to pre-recorded videos to audience Q&A. They now host over 200 live events annually, and a staggering 90% of subscribers to their Navigator product come directly from these webinars.

The underlying strength and resilience of Vimeo's business model were evident in our Q2 results. Revenue grew 2% year-over-year, led by Vimeo Enterprise, which grew 55% in the quarter. We generated Net Income of $10 million, Adjusted EBITDA* of $16 million, and $20 million in both cash from operations and Free Cash Flow, ending the quarter with $311 million in cash. We returned $16 million of that cash to shareholders by repurchasing approximately 4 million of our shares since our last earnings announcement.

Looking to the back half of the year, I have three main areas of focus:

•Create a customer-first culture of agility and innovation.

•Invest to increase the pace of growth in Vimeo Enterprise and reignite Self-Serve.

•Drive AI and new innovations that excite our customers.

To meet our goals and take advantage of the opportunity will require new thinking and execution at scale. I am also actively strengthening our team with new leadership.

We are committed to being one of the industry’s most trustworthy and transparent video platforms, and as we continue to improve operating efficiency, we plan to ramp up investment in the back half of the year. We see opportunities to drive innovation, return to sustainable revenue growth, and create more value for our customers, and I'm confident we can create significant shareholder value in doing so.

Thank you!

Philip Moyer

Overview

& Revenue

*Please refer to the reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP measures starting on page 13.

Vimeo Enterprise

Vimeo Enterprise grew to 23% of total bookings and 19% of total revenue in the quarter thanks to healthy double-digit year-over-year growth. During the quarter, in addition to adding some great new customers as outlined below, we delivered year-over-year increases in both logo and dollar retention rates on a fast-growing base of existing customers. Perhaps most notable, Vimeo Enterprise bookings reached $23 million in the quarter, putting us in sight of a $100 million annualized bookings run rate for this product, an important milestone for our business. We saw healthy product usage in Q2 and our sales teams gained productivity sequentially.

Vimeo Enterprise continued to be embraced by some of the largest companies in the world. We had impressive new customer wins in Q2 including Workday for our Vimeo Central offering; Mazda, Warby Parker, Pinehurst, and Le Creuset for Vimeo Marketing; Westfield and The Church of England for internal events and communications; and Goodyear for webinars and lead-gen events.

*Please refer to the reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP measures starting on page 13.

Self-Serve & Add-Ons

In Self-Serve & Add-Ons, a main focus in 2024 has been on getting more efficient in our go-to-market efforts. We made meaningful cuts to our advertising spend both in Q2 and YTD - we are focusing on profitable customers. As in Q1, that focus shows clearly in both new and total bookings trends meaningfully outpacing advertising spend reductions. We believe those results speak to the strength of our products and efforts to be more consistent and intentional in communicating changes to our platform and the value we create for those customers. That focus also shows up in retention rates. While subscribers fell 9%, retention rates improved year-over-year on both a dollar and subscriber basis.

New subscriber volumes are not currently large enough to get us back to aggregate nominal subscriber growth, but we continue to see a mix shift towards higher priced bandwidth add-ons and increases in dollar bookings retention, which together drove a 6% ARPU increase in Q2.

We continue to believe that a focus on product is the best path to growing new customers and improving retention over the long term. For example, in Q2, we released a new homepage experience that improves navigation with the strategy of increasing customer engagement and driving faster time to success, as well as additional analytics tools to improve customer insights around their video content.

*Please refer to the reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP measures starting on page 13.

Other

Within Other, OTT comprised more than 80% of Other bookings and revenue in the quarter. We expect the OTT product to stabilize, while we are deprecating other products in this category that we expect to eventually decline to zero. The impact of that decline will continue to become less relevant as the magnitude of the deprecating products shrinks.

Expenses & Profitability

We continued to manage our expenses with discipline in Q2 and further strengthened our financial foundation.

GAAP cost of revenue was $23 million and non-GAAP cost of revenue* was $22 million, down 1% and essentially flat year-over-year, respectively, primarily due to a decrease in credit card processing fees driven by lower Self-Serve & Add-Ons bookings. GAAP and non-GAAP gross profit margin* were both 78% in the quarter, with GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin improving 71 and 57 basis points year-over-year, respectively.

Total GAAP operating expenses were effectively flat and non-GAAP operating expenses* were down 12% year-over-year. Over the past two years our focus on cost controls and efficiency has reduced GAAP and non-GAAP operating expenses as a percent of

*Please refer to the reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP measures starting on page 13.

revenue by 29 and 19 percentage-points, respectively, compared to Q2’22. Year-over-year spending declines in Q2 were driven by a 6% lower headcount, which ended the quarter at 1,054, and continued reductions in advertising spend. On a GAAP basis, stock-based compensation expense increased from lower levels last year as we anniversaried certain executive departures.

In research and development, we continued to invest in innovation as we focus on product-led growth initiatives. We made product investments in Q2, including in our recent AI-powered translation with authentic voice cloning release. GAAP research and development expense was up 1% and non-GAAP research and development expense* increased 4% year-over-year, and we look to invest more incremental dollars into product innovation.

In sales and marketing, we continued to execute on our strategic decision to focus on driving efficiency in our advertising spend, which fell more than 50% year-over-year in the quarter. GAAP sales and marketing expense was down 30% and non-GAAP sales and marketing expense* was down 27% year-over-year, with non-GAAP sales and marketing expense* representing 26% of revenue in the quarter, a reduction of 10 percentage-points year-over-year.

In Q2, GAAP general and administrative expense increased 175% and non-GAAP general and administrative expense* was flat year-over-year. The GAAP increase was due primarily to a $12 million year-over-year increase in stock-based compensation expense, which was negative in the second quarter of 2023 as a result of executive turnover.

Total stock-based compensation expense was $8 million in Q2, up $9 million year-over-year primarily driven by executive turnover in 2023 which resulted in reversals of stock-based compensation expense a year ago.

Net income was $10 million in Q2, an increase of $4 million year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA* was $16 million in the quarter, an increase of $11 million year-over-year. Basic and Diluted EPS were both $0.06.

Balance Sheet &

Cash Flow Highlights

We ended Q2 with $311 million in cash and cash equivalents, up $6 million from the prior quarter. Cash from operations was $20 million. We ended the quarter with $25 million in accounts receivable. Free Cash Flow*, which excludes the impact from cash payments made in Q2 related to restructuring costs from Q1, was up 55% year-over-year to $20 million, driven by an $11 million increase in Adjusted EBITDA*.

We repurchased 3 million shares of Vimeo's common stock in the quarter, and an additional 1 million shares of common stock through August 1, 2024, at an aggregate average per share cost of $3.84. As of August 1, 2024 we had $34 million remaining in our share repurchase authorization. We plan to continue to act on our existing repurchase authorization at a minimum to reduce dilution from current and future share issuance.

Q3 and FY'24 Guidance

For the full year 2024, we now expect:

•Revenue to be at or around $405 million

•Operating income to be approximately $3 million

•Adjusted EBITDA* to be in the range of $40 million, with the ultimate level depending on the timing of investment spending

For the third quarter of 2024, we expect:

•Revenue to be at or below $100 million

•Operating loss to be approximately $1 million

•Adjusted EBITDA* to be in the high single-digit millions of dollars

PRINCIPLES OF FINANCIAL REPORTING

We have provided in this press release certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating expenses, and free cash flow, to supplement our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing our financial results and believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors as an additional tool to evaluate ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial results with other companies in our industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures. However, our presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the presentation of similarly titled measures by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is one of the metrics on which our internal budgets are based and also one of the metrics by which management is compensated. We believe that investors should have access to, and we are obligated to provide, the same set of tools that we use in analyzing our results. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. We endeavor to compensate for the limitations of the non-GAAP measures presented by providing the comparable GAAP measure with equal or greater prominence and descriptions of the reconciling items, including quantifying such items, to derive the non-GAAP measure. We encourage investors to examine the reconciling adjustments between the GAAP and corresponding non-GAAP measure.

From time to time, we provide forward-looking outlook information, including for Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA used in our outlook will differ from net earnings (loss) and operating income (loss) in ways similar to the reconciliations provided above and the definitions of Adjusted EBITDA provided below.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") is defined as operating income (loss) excluding: (1) stock-based compensation expense; (2) depreciation; (3) acquisition-related items consisting of (i) amortization of intangible assets, (ii) impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, if applicable, and (iii) gains and losses recognized on changes in the fair value of contingent consideration arrangements; and (4) restructuring costs associated with exit or disposal activities such as a reduction in force. We believe this measure is useful for analysts and investors as this measure allows a more meaningful comparison between our performance and that of our competitors. The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are either non-cash or non-recurring in nature and are collectively referred to as "Adjusted EBITDA Non-GAAP Adjustments." Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations because it excludes the impact of these expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin is Adjusted EBITDA, divided by revenue.

Non-GAAP Cost of Revenue excludes stock-based compensation expense and restructuring costs.

Non-GAAP Gross Profit excludes stock-based compensation expense and restructuring costs included in Cost of revenue.

Non-GAAP Gross Margin is Non-GAAP Gross Profit, divided by revenue.

Non-GAAP Operating Expenses include Non-GAAP Research and development expense, Non-GAAP Sales and marketing expense, and Non-GAAP General and administrative expense. These Non-GAAP operating expenses exclude Adjusted EBITDA Non-GAAP Adjustments in their respective expense items.

Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by, or used in, operating activities excluding restructuring costs and contingent consideration payments included in operating activities, less cash used for capital expenditures. We believe Free Cash Flow is useful to investors as a liquidity measure because it measures our ability to generate or use cash.

Items That Are Excluded From Non-GAAP Measures

Stock-based compensation expense consists of expense associated with the grants of Vimeo stock-based awards. These expenses are not paid in cash and we view the economic costs of stock-based awards to be the dilution to our share base. We also consider the dilutive impact of stock-based awards in GAAP diluted earnings per share, to the extent such impact is dilutive.

Depreciation is a non-cash expense relating to our leasehold improvements and equipment and is computed using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated useful lives, or, in the case of leasehold improvements, the lease term, if shorter.

Amortization of intangible assets and impairments of goodwill and intangible assets are non-cash expenses related to acquisitions. At the time of an acquisition, the identifiable definite-lived intangible assets of the acquired company, such as customer relationships, technology and trade names, are valued and amortized over their estimated lives. An impairment is recorded when the carrying value of an intangible asset or goodwill exceeds its fair value. We believe that intangible assets represent costs incurred by the acquired company to build value prior to acquisition and the related amortization and impairments of intangible assets or goodwill, if applicable, are not ongoing costs of doing business.

Gains and losses recognized on changes in the fair value of contingent consideration arrangements are accounting adjustments to report contingent consideration liabilities at fair value. These adjustments can be highly variable and are excluded from our assessment of performance because they are considered non-operational in nature and, therefore, are not indicative of current or future performance or the ongoing cost of doing business.

Restructuring costs consist of costs associated with exit or disposal activities such as severance and other post-employment benefits paid in connection with a reduction-in-force. We consider these costs to be non-recurring in nature and therefore, are not indicative of current or future performance or the ongoing cost of doing business.

Operating Metrics and Key Terms

Self-Serve & Add-Ons relates to our subscription plans sold directly online, and any add-on services tied to those online subscriptions. This includes our Starter, Standard, and Advanced subscription plans, and add-on services such as bandwidth charges, which are sold through our sales force to subscribers of one of our plans if they exceed a certain threshold of bandwidth.

Vimeo Enterprise relates to our video offering designed for teams and organizations, which includes the same capabilities of Self-Serve & Add-Ons plus enterprise-grade features such as advanced security, custom user permissions, single-sign on for employees, interactive video tools, and marketing software integrations. Vimeo Enterprise is sold through our sales force and is often an upgrade from Vimeo's Self-Serve & Add-Ons as the number of users or use cases in an organization grows.

Other relates to products and services we offer outside of Self-Serve & Add-Ons and Vimeo Enterprise, primarily our over-the-top ("OTT") video monetization solution that allows customers to launch and run their own video streaming channel directly to their audience through a branded web portal, mobile apps and Internet-enabled TV apps. Other also includes Magisto, Livestream, Wibbitz, and WIREWAX.

Subscribers is the number of users who have an active subscription to one of Vimeo's paid plans measured at the end of the relevant period. Vimeo counts each customer with a subscription plan as a subscriber regardless of the number of users. In the case of customers who maintain subscriptions across Self-Serve & Add-Ons, Vimeo Enterprise, and Other, Vimeo counts one subscriber for each of the components in which they maintain one or more subscriptions. Vimeo does not count users or team members who have access to a subscriber's account as additional subscribers.

Average Subscribers is the sum of the number of Subscribers at the beginning and at the end of the relevant measurement period divided by two.

Average Revenue per User ("ARPU") is the annualized revenue for the relevant period divided by Average Subscribers. For periods that are less than a full year, annualized revenue is calculated by dividing the revenue for that particular period by the number of calendar days in the period and multiplying this value by the number of calendar days in that year.

Bookings consists of fixed fees for SaaS services, measured at the end of the relevant period, that subscribers have paid or committed to pay during their subscription period or 12 months, whichever is shorter, less refunds and chargebacks during the same period.

Gross Margin is revenue less cost of revenue, divided by revenue.

Operating Income (Loss) Margin is Operating income (loss), divided by revenue.

DILUTIVE SECURITIES

Vimeo has various dilutive securities. The table below details these securities as well as estimated dilution at various stock prices (shares in millions; rounding differences may occur).


	Shares	Avg. Exercise Price		As of 8/1/2024			Dilution at:

Share Price				$	3.81		$	4.00		$	6.00		$	8.00		$	10.00

Common Stock Outstanding as of 8/1/2024	165.8			165.8			165.8			165.8			165.8			165.8

Total Estimated Diluted Shares Outstanding				172.7			172.7			172.7			174.2			175.4

The dilutive securities presentation is calculated using the methods and assumptions described below, which are different than those prescribed by GAAP.

The estimated dilutive effect was calculated assuming the Company settles equity awards on a net basis; therefore, the dilutive effect is presented as the net number of shares expected to be issued upon vesting or exercise, adjusted for (i) the estimated income tax benefit from the tax deduction received upon the vesting or exercise of awards held in the U.S., as such tax benefit is assumed to be used to repurchase shares of Vimeo common stock and (ii) in the case of stock options, the strike price proceeds that are received by the Company and assumed to be used to repurchase shares of Vimeo common stock. The number of shares required to settle stock appreciation rights will be impacted by movement in the stock price of Vimeo.
