Comment from the CEO in summary
"Q4 revenues grew more than 28% compared to the same period last
year thanks to continuous improvements to average revenue per daily
active user (ARPDAU). The main drivers for increased ARPDAU are the
migration of QuizDuel players to New QuizDuel as well as the
continued growth of Wordzee. This year's Q4 ARPDAU is 29% higher
than last year's thanks to these efforts.
Wordzee has by far the highest ARPDAU and strongest monetization
potential we have seen in a game from MAG, and we started to ramp
up our investments in user acquisition for Wordzee in the latter
part of Q4. We invest in user acquisition with a targeted payback
time of 180 days and will continue to do so to support Wordzee's
future growth.
The user migration between New QuizDuel and classic QuizDuel
continues according to plan, reaching 40% at the end of Q4. Our
ambition is to get that number to 100% before the end of 2020.
At the end of Q4, we announced the acquisition of the live
trivia app Primetime. With their expertise we plan to integrate
live broadcast into New QuizDuel as a new feature to further
strengthen its player engagement and game economy.
The continued expansion of Wordzee and New QuizDuel in terms of
both players and revenues makes for an exciting start of the new
financial year. There is good reason to believe that we can
continue our ARPDAU journey forward and build an even stronger
business in 2021 and beyond", says Daniel
Hasselberg, CEO of MAG Interactive.
