Insights

Mega Matrix Corp.'s Q2 2024 results show promising growth in the short-form video streaming market. With $15.6 million in unaudited revenue for H1 2024, including $14.3 million from streaming services, the company demonstrates strong monetization potential. The 60% gross profit margin is impressive for a growing tech company.

Key positives include:

  • $15.8 million user recharge, with 62% from the U.S.
  • 4.1 million active users with $3.5 ARPU
  • 0.5 million paying users with $28.8 ARPPU

The focus on the U.S. market, accounting for 51.7% of streaming revenue, aligns with high-value user acquisition strategies. However, investors should monitor cash burn and path to profitability, as rapid growth often comes with high costs.

FlexTV's rapid ascent in app store rankings across multiple countries signals strong market penetration and user adoption. Notably, achieving top 10 positions in diverse markets like Thailand, Japan, France, South Korea and Indonesia demonstrates global appeal.

The success of "Mr. Williams! Madame is Dying" with $9.0 million in user top-ups and 201.3 million views highlights the platform's ability to produce viral content. This is important in the competitive short-form video space.

The expansion of the script team to produce over 5 short dramas monthly is a strategic move to maintain content quality and frequency. However, the challenge lies in sustaining this momentum and competing with established players in the attention economy.

Key Metrics

The numbers for our key metrics, which include our total active users (TAU), total paying users (TPU), average membership and top-up streaming service revenue per active user (ARPU), and average membership and top-up streaming service revenue per paying user (ARPPU), are calculated using internal company data based on the activity of user accounts. We define an active user as a user who has downloaded and opened FlexTV app at least once. We define a paying user as a user who has registered for a membership or topping up, provided a method of payment, and is entitled to access FlexTV services (this membership or topping up does not include participation in free trials or other promotional offers extended by FlexTV to new users). We define ARPU as average membership and top-up streaming services revenue generated by each active user in one quarter. We define ARPPU as average membership and top-up streaming services revenue generated by each paying user in one quarter. We use these metrics to assess the growth and health of the overall business and believe that ARPU best reflects our ability to attract, retain, engage and monetize our users, and thereby drive revenue. While these numbers are based on what we believe to be reasonable estimates of our user base for the applicable period of measurement, there are inherent challenges in measuring usage of our products across large online and mobile populations around the world. In addition, we are continually seeking to improve our estimates of our user base, and such estimates may change due to improvements or changes in technology or our methodology.
