Insights

Financial Analyst

Life360's Q4 and FY 2024 results demonstrate impressive growth momentum coupled with a clear path to sustainable profitability. The company reported $115.5 million in Q4 revenue (up 33% YoY) and achieved positive net income of $8.5 million for the quarter, marking a significant financial milestone.

The company's revenue mix shows healthy diversification with subscription revenue at $78.8 million (68% of total, up 32% YoY), hardware revenue at $23.8 million (21% of total, up 13% YoY), and other revenue (including advertising) at $13 million (11% of total), which more than doubled year-over-year. Particularly noteworthy is the 36% growth in core subscription revenue to $73.1 million, representing the company's highest-margin revenue stream.

User metrics remain strong with MAUs reaching 79.6 million (up 30% YoY) and Paying Circles growing to nearly 2.3 million (up 25% YoY). The geographical growth story is compelling - international MAUs increased 46% YoY compared to 19% in the US, suggesting significant untapped global potential. The 6% increase in Average Revenue Per Paying Circle indicates effective monetization strategies and pricing power.

The company's profitability metrics show substantial improvement with Q4 Adjusted EBITDA of $21.2 million (vs. $8.9 million in Q4'23) and gross margin expanding from 69% to 74% YoY. Operating leverage is clearly improving as operating expenses grew at 22% YoY while revenue increased 33%.

Life360's FY2025 guidance of $450-480 million in revenue and $65-75 million in Adjusted EBITDA (including $8 million investment in a new pet device) suggests continued strong growth and margin expansion. The company's strategic vision of reaching 150 million MAUs and $1 billion in annual revenue appears increasingly achievable given current growth rates and expanding product ecosystem.

Technology Analyst

Life360's Q4 and FY 2024 results demonstrate successful execution of a comprehensive platform strategy that's evolving beyond basic location sharing into a comprehensive family safety ecosystem. The company has effectively leveraged its core app as a foundation while expanding into complementary hardware and monetization channels.

The company's 30% YoY growth in MAUs to 79.6 million reflects strong product-market fit, with international markets showing particularly impressive 46% YoY growth compared to 19% in the US. This geographic disparity suggests successful product localization and adaptation to diverse market needs, while also indicating significant remaining growth potential outside the US.

Life360's ecosystem expansion strategy is yielding results through three key vectors: subscription tier optimization, hardware integration, and new revenue streams. The core subscription business grew 36% YoY, demonstrating strong user willingness to pay for premium features. The company's implementation of tiered pricing models (Triple Tier in some markets, Dual Tier in others) has enabled effective monetization without sacrificing growth.

The hardware business shows steady progress with 8% YoY growth in units shipped and 9% higher Average Selling Price. While hardware growth lags behind MAU expansion, the integration of Tile devices creates an important ecosystem lock-in effect that enhances overall platform value. The strategic $5 million investment in Hubble and plans for a pet tracking device in 2025 further extend this ecosystem strategy.

Perhaps most promising is Life360's successful launch of its advertising business, contributing to significant growth in other revenue. This represents a classic platform monetization approach - build a large user base first, then introduce monetization layers that leverage the network's scale and engagement.

The relatively modest 14% increase in R&D spending compared to 33% revenue growth demonstrates impressive development efficiency while still supporting innovation. With a robust cash position of $160.5 million, Life360 has ample resources to continue expanding its technological capabilities while maintaining its path to profitability.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Life360, Inc. (“Life360” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: LIF, ASX: 360), the San Francisco-based leader in family safety and connection, today announced unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and audited financial results for the full year ended December 31, 2024. Building on the momentum of prior quarters, the Company achieved record-breaking results across key metrics, including Monthly Active Users (MAUs), Paying Circles, Subscription Revenue, and Annualized Monthly Revenue.

“Life360 made remarkable strides in Q4 2024, capping off the year with our best-ever holiday period and achieving record-breaking annual results in MAU and subscribers, while continuing to make progress with our overall strategy,” said Life360 Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer Chris Hulls. “2024 was a transformative year for Life360. We successfully launched our advertising business, unlocking new growth opportunities, introduced a cutting-edge lineup of Tile devices, executed an award-winning brand campaign, forged a key strategic partnership with Hubble, and celebrated a significant milestone by completing our U.S. IPO to become publicly traded on Nasdaq.

“As we enter 2025, we are laser-focused on achieving our longer term strategic goals: reaching 150 million MAU, surpassing $1 billion in annual revenue, and exceeding a 35% Adjusted EBITDA margin. By keeping families safe, connected to the people, pets, and things they love, and helping make everyday life better, we are uniquely positioned to tap into vast global market potential and drive sustained growth for years to come.”

Life360 Chief Financial Officer Russell Burke added: “On top of exceptional revenue growth, we continued to make significant progress toward profitability during the quarter and the year. In Q4 2024, we achieved positive Net Income of $8.5 million, and our ninth consecutive quarter of positive Adjusted EBITDA¹ and seventh consecutive quarter of positive Operating Cash Flow. For the full year, we generated total revenue of $371 million, up 22% year-over-year, while keeping total operating expenses growth at 14% YoY, which drove our EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA results above the high end of our guidance ranges. Looking ahead, we are confident in our ability to keep growing positive Adjusted EBITDA¹ throughout 2025 as we continue balancing robust revenue growth with expanding profitability.”

Additionally, $6.8 million was used for investing activities, which include a $5.0 million investment in Hubble and payments for internally developed software.
• Q4’24 net cash provided by operating activities of $12.3 million was lower than Adjusted EBITDA of $21.2 million primarily due to an overall increase in working capital balances driven by increased activity. See the EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA section below for definition and reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

To supplement our consolidated financial statements prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, as described below, to facilitate analysis of our financial and business trends and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. For more information, see the “Supplementary and Non-GAAP Financial Information” section below.

Non-GAAP financial measures include earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) and Adjusted EBITDA Margin. EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), excluding (i) convertible notes, derivative liability, and investment fair value adjustments, (ii) gain and loss on settlement of convertible notes and derivative liability, (iii) provision for (benefit from) income taxes, (iv) depreciation and amortization and (v) other income, net. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), excluding (i) convertible notes, derivative liability, and investment fair value adjustments, (ii) gain and loss on settlement of convertible notes and derivative liability, (iii) provision for (benefit from) income taxes, (iv) depreciation and amortization, (v) other income, net, (vi) stock-based compensation, (vii) IPO-related transaction costs, including secondary offering costs (viii) workplace restructuring costs, (ix) the write-off of obsolete inventory, (x) the adjustment in connection with membership benefit, and (xi) warehouse relocation costs. These items are excluded from EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because they are non-cash in nature, because the amount and timing of these items are unpredictable, or because they are not driven by core results of operations and render comparisons with prior periods and competitors less meaningful.

The following table presents a reconciliation of Net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:

Earnings Guidance²³

For FY’25, Life360 expects to deliver the following metrics:

• Consolidated revenue of $450 million - $480 million comprised of:
  • Subscription revenue of $350 million - $360 million;
  • Hardware revenue of $45 million - $55 million;
  • Other revenue of $55 million - $65 million; and
• Positive Adjusted EBITDA²⁴ of $65 million - $75 million, which includes $8 million of investment to developing and launching a new pet device in 2025.

23	With respect to forward looking non-GAAP guidance, we are not able to reconcile the forward-looking non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA measure to the closest corresponding GAAP measure without unreasonable efforts because we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of certain significant items, which are fluid and unpredictable in nature. In addition, the Company believes such a reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that may be confusing or misleading to investors. These items include, but are not limited to, litigation costs, convertible notes and derivative liability fair value adjustments, and gains/losses on revaluation of contingent consideration. These items may be material to our results calculated in accordance with GAAP.
24	Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are non-GAAP measures. For more information, including the definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA, the use of these non-GAAP measures, as well as reconciliations of Net Income (Loss) to each of Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA, refer to the “EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA” section above and the “Supplementary and Non-GAAP Financial Information” section below.

Supplementary and Non-GAAP Financial Information

We report our financial results in accordance with GAAP, however, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and the other measures presented in the tables below provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations, as well as providing useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of our business performance. Moreover, we have included non-GAAP financial measures in this media release because they are key measurements used by our management team internally to make operating decisions, including those related to operating expenses, evaluate performance, and perform strategic planning and annual budgeting.

Our non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be used as substitutes for analysis of, or superior to, our operating results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, we do not consider our non-GAAP financial measures as superior to, or a substitute for, the equivalent measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. As such, you should consider these non-GAAP financial measures in addition to other financial performance measures presented in accordance with GAAP, including various cash flow metrics, net loss and our other GAAP results.

Non-GAAP cost of revenue is presented to understand margin economically and non-GAAP operating expenses are presented to understand operating efficiency. Non-GAAP cost of revenue and Non-GAAP operating expenses present direct and indirect expenses adjusted for non-cash expenses, such as stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, and non-recurring expenses, such as workplace restructuring costs, U.S. IPO-related transaction costs, including secondary offering costs, and the adjustment in connection with membership benefit. A reconciliation of GAAP financial information to Non-GAAP financial information for cost of revenue and operating expenses has been provided as supplementary information below.
