Highlights Q3 2024
- Revenues totaled
BRL 284.4 million , up30% when compared toBRL 218.6 million in Q3 2023 as a result of both SaaS (+16% ) and CPaaS (+37% ) YoY expansion. CPaaS saw abnormally high temporary volumes with certain customers, while SaaS grew mainly from small and medium businesses. - Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit of
BRL 102.5 million was up22% YoY, while Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin was down by 2.3 percentage points landing at36.0% . This decrease is mainly due to:
(i) Higher CPaaS mix in the period due to the specific one-off volumes, which were opportunistic for revenue. We don't expect this same volume level in Q4 2024.
(ii) Lower SaaS margins due to tighter margins from enterprises, which continue to reflect a very competitive environment, more than offsetting the better small and medium business mix.
- Total active customers were 12.2k, being 6.4k from SaaS and 6.0k from CPaaS. As mentioned last quarter, this YoY decrease reflects a client-base cleanup which took place in Q2 2024.
- Normalized EBITDA was positive
BRL 41.2 million in the quarter, up153.1% from Q3 2023, benefiting from higher revenues and strict expense control. This was our highest quarterly EBITDA in three years. - Cash Balance of BR 102.7 million, a sequential increase of
BRL 13.3 million as a direct result of our focus on cash preservation without jeopardizing our sustainable growth, including the continued use of working capital instruments. - On October 15, Zenvia announced the official launch of Zenvia Customer Cloud, its comprehensive AI-powered solution designed to transform the customer experience by integrating solutions across all customer journey stages—from marketing and sales to service and relationship management. The Zenvia Customer Cloud allows companies to manage customer interactions across multiple channels, including WhatsApp, email, SMS, and apps, within a single, centralized platform. This unified approach streamlines processes, reducing the need for multiple software solutions, while increasing productivity through intelligent automation. The platform leverages AI-enabled automation to enhance productivity and efficiency, positioning Zenvia for strong, profitable growth while providing deeper insights into customer behavior.
Highlights 9M 2024
- Revenues totaled
BRL 728.2 million , up23% when compared toBRL 590.6 million in 9M 2023 as a result of both SaaS (+15% ) and CPaaS (+28% ) YoY expansion. - Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit of
BRL 296.3 million was up14% YoY while Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin was down 3.2 percentage points YoY to40.7% , due to a higher mix of CPaaS in revenues, combined with lower margins with large enterprises in the SaaS business and an increase in infrastructure costs related to the final phase of the integration of acquired companies. - Normalized EBITDA was positive
BRL 98.1 million in the period, up151% from 9M 2023, which is in line with our expectations and on track to deliver the full year guidance ofBRL 120 million toBRL 140 million .

We recorded abnormally high volumes from large enterprise customers in the CPaaS business in this third quarter, in line with the trend we saw in Q2 2024. While we consider this to be temporary and do not expect it to continue into the fourth quarter, it was an opportunistic move to our top line.

Regarding Total Active Customers, as we mentioned in the last quarter, the YoY decrease was primarily due to the clean-up and removal held in Q2 2024 of smaller CPaaS clients who were not generating revenue.
