FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Travelzoo Reports Fourth Quarter 2024 Results

NEW YORK, February 25, 2025 — Travelzoo® (NASDAQ: TZOO):

Revenue of $20.7 million, down 2% year-over-year
Consolidated operating profit of $4.9 million, up 8% year-over-year
Non-GAAP consolidated operating profit of $5.3 million
Cash flow from operations of $7.7 million
Earnings per share (EPS) of $0.26

Travelzoo, the club for travel enthusiasts, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2024. Consolidated revenue was $20.7 million, down 2% year-over-year. In constant currencies, revenue was $20.6 million. Travelzoo's reported revenue consists of advertising revenues and commissions, derived from and generated in connection with purchases made by Travelzoo members, and membership fees.

Net income attributable to Travelzoo was $3.2 million for Q4 2024, or $0.26 per share, compared with $0.27 in the prior-year period. Net income attributable to Travelzoo from continuing operations was $3.2 million for Q4 2024, or $0.26 per share, compared with $0.24 in the prior-year period.

Non-GAAP operating profit was $5.3 million. Non-GAAP operating profit excludes amortization of intangibles ($93,000), stock option expenses ($0.4 million). Please refer to “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the tabular reconciliation below.

“We will continue to leverage Travelzoo's global reach, trusted brand, and strong relationships with top travel suppliers to negotiate more Club Offers for Club Members,” said Holger Bartel, Travelzoo's
1/10


Global CEO. “Travelzoo members are affluent, active, and open to new experiences. We inspire travel enthusiasts to travel to places they never imagined they could. Travelzoo is the must-have membership for those who love to travel as much as we do."

Cash Position
As of December 31, 2024, consolidated cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash were $17.7 million. Net cash provided by operations was $7.7 million.

Travelzoo North America
North America business segment revenue increased 1% year-over-year to $13.9 million. Operating profit for Q4 2024 was $4.6 million, or 33% of revenue, compared to operating profit of $4.0 million in the prior-year period.

Travelzoo Europe
Europe business segment revenue decreased 13% year-over-year to $5.4 million, caused primarily by fluctuations in Germany. In constant currencies, Europe business segment revenue was $5.3 million. Operating profit for Q4 2024 was $159,000, or 3% of revenue, compared to operating profit of $832,000 in the prior-year period.

Jack’s Flight Club
Jack’s Flight Club is a membership subscription service in which Travelzoo has a 60% ownership interest. As the number of premium subscribers continues to grow, revenue increased 19% year-over-year to $1.3 million. Jack’s Flight Club’s revenue from subscriptions is recognized ratably over the subscription period (quarterly, semi-annually, annually). Non-GAAP operating profit for Q4 2024 was $208,000. Non-GAAP operating profit excludes amortization of intangibles ($58,000) related to the acquisition of Travelzoo’s ownership interest in Jack’s Flight Club in 2020.

New Initiatives
New Initiatives business segment revenue, which includes Licensing and Travelzoo META, was $19,000. Operating loss for Q4 2024 was $36,000.

In June 2020, Travelzoo entered into a royalty-bearing licensing agreement with a local licensee in Japan for the exclusive use of Travelzoo’s brand, business model, and members in Japan. In August of 2020, Travelzoo entered into a royalty-bearing licensing agreement with a local licensee in Australia for the exclusive use of Travelzoo’s brand, business models, and members in Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore. Under these arrangements, Travelzoo’s existing members in Australia, Japan, New
2/10


Zealand, and Singapore will continue to be owned by Travelzoo as the licensor. Travelzoo recorded $7,000 in licensing revenue from the licensee in Japan in Q4 2024. Travelzoo recorded $12,000 in licensing revenue from the licensee in Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore in Q4 2024. Licensing revenue is expected to increase in the future.

Reach
Travelzoo reaches 30 million travelers. This includes Jack's Flight Club. Comparisons to prior periods are no longer meaningful due to strategic developments of the Travelzoo membership.

Discontinued Operations
In March 2020, Travelzoo decided to exit its Asia Pacific business and operate it as a licensing business going forward. Consequently, the Asia Pacific business has been classified as discontinued operations.

Income Taxes
A provision of $1.5 million for income taxes was recorded for Q4 2024, compared to an income tax expense of $1.6 million in the prior-year period. Travelzoo intends to utilize available net operating losses (NOLs) to largely offset its actual tax liability for 2024.

Share Repurchase Program
During Q4 2024, the Company repurchased 135,792 shares of its outstanding common stock.

Looking Ahead
For Q1 2025, we expect revenue to increase at a higher pace. The pro rata portion of membership fee revenue will already add 5% incremental growth this quarter. This percentage is expected to increase over subsequent quarters, as membership fee revenue is recognized ratably over the subscription period, we acquire new members, and more Legacy Members become Club Members. For the whole year, we expect substantially higher revenue growth. Over time, we expect profitability to further increase as recurring membership fee revenue will be recognized.

In 2024, we introduced a membership fee for Travelzoo. Legacy Members, who joined before 2024, were exempt from the fee during 2024. Legacy Members represent more than 95% of Travelzoo's reach. In 2025, Legacy Members continue to receive certain travel offers. But Club Offers and new benefits are only available to Club Members. We generally see Legacy Members being excited to become Club Members.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management calculates non-GAAP operating income when evaluating the financial performance of the business. Travelzoo’s calculation of non-GAAP operating income, also called “non-GAAP operating profit” in this press release and today’s earnings conference call, excludes the following items: amortization of intangibles, stock option expenses and severance-related expenses. This press release includes a table which reconciles GAAP operating income to the calculation of non-GAAP operating income. Non-GAAP operating income is not required by, or presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). This information should be considered as supplemental in nature and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Conference Call
Travelzoo will host a conference call to discuss fourth quarter 2024 results today at 11:00 a.m. ET. Please visit http://ir.travelzoo.com/events-presentations to
