While the sequential increase in PMAU and improving customer acquisition paybacks are encouraging, Skillz still faces challenges in achieving consistent revenue growth and positive cash flow. The company's ability to scale user acquisition while maintaining efficiency will be important for its future performance.
Skillz's Q2 2024 results reveal interesting trends in the mobile gaming market. The company's ability to increase its Paying Monthly Active Users (PMAU) for the first time in ten quarters suggests a potential shift in user acquisition dynamics within the competitive mobile gaming landscape.

The company's focus on optimizing customer acquisition costs and improving payback periods to around six months aligns with industry best practices. This approach could lead to more sustainable growth in the long term, especially if Skillz can maintain or improve its user retention rates.
The mobile gaming market continues to evolve rapidly, with changing user preferences and increasing competition. Skillz's platform, which focuses on fair competition, may be finding its niche in this landscape. However, the company will need to continuously innovate and adapt to maintain its position and grow its user base.

“Skillz’ second quarter results mark continued progress against our strategic initiatives to position the Company to deliver consistent revenue growth and positive cash flow,” said Andrew Paradise, Skillz’ CEO. “Progress in the second quarter includes our first quarterly sequential increase in Paying Monthly Average Users (pMAU) in ten quarters.

1. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP metric; for a reconciliation of each measure against its most comparable GAAP metric, please see the section titled “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” in this press release. |
2. “Paying Monthly Active Users” or “PMAUs” means the number of end-users who entered into a paid contest hosted on Skillz’s platform at least once in a month, averaged over each month in the period. |
3. “Average Revenue Per Paying Monthly Active User” or “ARPPU” means the average revenue in a given month divided by Paying MAUs in that month, averaged over the period and does not include a deduction for end-user incentives that are included in sales and marketing expense. |
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this press release, the Company includes Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP performance measure that the Company uses to supplement its results presented in accordance with
The Company defines and calculates Adjusted EBITDA as net loss before interest income (expense), net; provision for income taxes; depreciation and amortization, and other income, net; as further adjusted for stock-based compensation and other special items determined by management, including, but not limited to, change in fair value of common stock warrant liabilities, impairment charges, loss contingency accruals, and one-time nonrecurring expenses. The Company defines and calculates non-GAAP operating expense as GAAP operating expense adjusted for stock-based compensation, one-time transaction expenses and other special items determined by management, including, but not limited to certain loss contingency accruals and restructuring charges, as they are not indicative of business operations.
The Company does not provide a reconciliation for non-GAAP estimates on a forward-looking basis as it is unable to provide a meaningful calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of various items that would impact the most directly comparable forward-looking
Preliminary Results, Delayed 10-K and 10-Q Extension
The Company is in the process of completing its unaudited interim financial statements and other disclosures for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024. Accordingly, we are announcing preliminary results for the second quarter, which are based on currently available information and are subject to revision as management completes its internal review. Our independent registered public accounting firm has not finalized its review of these preliminary financial results. Actual results may differ from these preliminary financial results and other financial information due to the completion of our internal procedures, final adjustments and other developments that may arise between now and the time the results are finalized. In the event the Company determines it will not file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q by the prescribed deadline, it will file an extension on Form 12b-25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
In addition, the Company is still in the process of completing its financial statements and other disclosures for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and unaudited financial statements and other disclosures for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2024. The Company previously filed a Form 12b-25 with the SEC for an extension of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “Form 10-K”) on March 14, 2024, but was unable to file the Form 10-K before the extension deadline. As a result, the Company announced on April 2, 2024, that it had received a notice (the “Notice”) from the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) that the Company was not in compliance with Section 802.01E of the NYSE Listed Company Manual because of its failure to timely file the Form 10-K. The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE. The Notice informed the Company that, under NYSE rules, the Company has six months from March 15, 2024 to regain compliance with the NYSE listing standards by filing the Form 10-K with the SEC. The Company is working diligently to complete the necessary work to file the Form 10-K as soon as practicable and currently expects to file the Form 10-K within the six-month period granted by the NYSE Notice, and intends to take all necessary steps to achieve compliance with applicable NYSE listing standards as soon as practicable. Because our financial statements and other disclosures for the year ended December 31, 2023 are still subject to ongoing management review and our independent registered public accounting firm has not completed its audit of our results for the period, actual results may differ from the preliminary results for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 as previously reported, and these differences could impact the preliminary results for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024 included in this press release. For additional details, please refer to the Company’s Form 12b-25 filed with the SEC on March 14, 2024 and its Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 8, 2024.
Forward-Looking Statements

Additional factors that may cause such differences include other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in the Company’s SEC filings, including those under “Risk Factors” therein, which are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Additional information will be made available in other filings that the Company makes from time to time with the SEC.
