Complete event summary combining all related documents: earnings call transcript, report, and slide presentation.Executive summary
Q3 2025 saw strong engagement and sales in the ARK franchise, with ARK contributing over 88% of revenue for the quarter and 90% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, but reported net revenues declined due to a $10.9 million increase in deferred revenue and revenue recognition timing.
Bookings increased 9.3% year-over-year in Q3 2025, driven by ARK: Survival Ascended, new DLC releases, and successful sales promotions.
Net loss for Q3 2025 was $7.9 million compared to net income of $0.2 million in Q3 2024; nine-month net loss was $26.4 million versus net income of $0.7 million in the prior year period.
Progress continued on proprietary stablecoin infrastructure and multi-state regulatory licensing, positioning for future digital payments innovation.
Operational highlights included new indie launches, industry event participation, and expansion in the SaltyTV short film business.
Financial highlights
Net revenue for Q3 2025 was $13.8 million, down 38.7% year-over-year, mainly due to increased deferred revenue of $10.9 million.
Deferred revenue at quarter-end was $36.4 million, with $26.5 million expected to be recognized in the next 12 months.
Bookings for Q3 2025 were $17.6 million, up 9.3% year-over-year; nine-month bookings increased 14.3% to $67 million.
Net loss for Q3 2025 was $7.9 million; EBITDA was a loss of $9.7 million, compared to a $0.5 million gain last year.
Unrestricted cash and cash equivalents stood at $12.3 million as of September 30, 2025.
Outlook and guidance
Q4 is expected to be significantly stronger, driven by the launch of ARK: Lost Colony and recognition of $5.8 million in deferred revenue.
Additional deferred revenue from Genesis 1 and 2 and other projects will be recognized in the upcoming year.
Management expects continued strong engagement from the ARK franchise and ongoing content releases, but notes that revenue recognition will be affected by deferred revenue from pre-sales and DLCs.
Continued investment in technology and content, including stablecoin infrastructure, is expected to yield long-term benefits.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.
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.
This is genuinely one of the cleanest and fastest finance apps out there to track the market.
