Executive summary
Q3 2025 revenue was $240 million, down 0.2% year-over-year (2.0% currency neutral), with creative segment growth offset by editorial and agency declines due to tough event calendar comparisons.
Net income for Q3 2025 was $21.6 million (9.0% margin), reversing a net loss of $2.5 million in Q3 2024, driven by higher Creative revenue and lower foreign exchange losses.
Adjusted EBITDA was $78.7 million (32.8% margin), down 2.4% year-over-year.
Strategic partnerships and multi-year AI content licensing deals, including with Perplexity, were signed to integrate content into AI platforms.
The proposed merger with Shutterstock faces regulatory reviews by the UK CMA and DOJ, delaying closing to 2026 and incurring $38.3 million in related costs year-to-date.
Financial highlights
Annual subscription revenue grew 11.2% year-over-year, now 58.4% of total revenue; Premium Access revenue grew 17% year-over-year.
Creative revenue rose 8.4% year-over-year to $144.9 million, while editorial revenue fell 3.7% to $89.3 million.
Other revenue dropped 58.5% to $5.8 million due to the absence of a large prior-year data licensing deal.
Free cash flow improved to $7.9 million from negative $1.8 million in Q3 2024.
Adjusted EBITDA margin was 32.8%, or 34.5% excluding SOX and litigation costs.
Outlook and guidance
Full-year 2025 revenue guidance updated to $942–$951 million (0.3%–1.2% growth year-over-year); adjusted EBITDA guidance set at $291–$293 million (2.3%–3% decrease year-over-year).
Guidance includes $8 million in one-off SG&A costs for SOX compliance and excludes merger-related costs.
FX expected to provide a $6.5 million revenue and $3.5 million EBITDA tailwind for the year.
Management expects cost of revenue and SG&A to increase in absolute dollars but remain relatively constant as a percentage of revenue.
Existing cash, cash equivalents, and operating cash flow are expected to be sufficient for liquidity needs for at least the next 12 months.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
