Exhibit 99.1
Zedge Announces
Fourth Quarter and Full-Year Fiscal 2023 Results
New York, NY – October 26, 2023: Zedge,
Inc. (NYSE AMERICAN: ZDGE), a leader in building digital marketplaces and friendly competitive games around content that people use to
express themselves, today announced results for its fourth quarter and full-year fiscal 2023, ended July 31, 2023.
“Fiscal 2023 was a transition year for Zedge, and
despite the geopolitical, macro-economic, and industry-specific challenges we faced, we finished the year in a much stronger position
with respect to product, operations and talent,” said Jonathan Reich, chief executive officer. “Our year-over-year financial
results don’t reflect these improvements due to being skewed by favorable non-cash accounting adjustments last year and unfavorable
ones this year, both related to acquisitions^. However, several underlying metrics
stabilized or improved in the fourth quarter despite traditional seasonal weakness.
“Some highlights included positive momentum in
Zedge Marketplace’s subscription offerings. During the fourth quarter, we completed the rollout of our Zedge+ offering on iOS and
overhauled the Android version, resulting in higher subscription revenue and ARPMAU1
versus the third quarter. Zedge Premium saw double-digit GTV1 growth versus last
year, driven by the continued expansion of our generative AI wallpaper maker, pAInt.
“Emojipedia continued its momentum, growing year-over-year
revenue by nearly 70% in the quarter and 50% for the full fiscal year. We are now localized in 19 languages, have overhauled the Emojipedia
website and upgraded the tech stack that helped drive these improved results.”
Fourth Quarter Highlights
Financial (fiscal 2023 compared
to fiscal 2022)
| ● | Revenue decreased 10.0% to $6.6 million; |
| ● | GAAP net income and earnings per share (EPS)
of $0.2 million and $0.01, respectively, compared to $4.5 million and $0.31, respectively: |
| o | Last year’s results included a non-cash $4.0 million,
or $0.27 per share, accounting benefit related to acquisitions; |
| ● | Adjusted EBITDA2
of $1.6 million; |
| ● | Zedge Premium GTV increased 14.3% to $0.38
million. |
Full-Year Highlights^

| ● | Adjusted EBITDA of $5.7 million; |
| ● | Repurchased 758,997 shares of Class B Common
Stock. |
^ When comparing fiscal 2023 versus fiscal 2022 full-year
results, note the following impacts:
| ● | Fiscal year 2022 GAAP net income benefitted
from a non-cash accounting benefit of $4.0 million, or $0.27 per share related to acquisitions, taken in the fourth quarter of the year; |
| ● | Fiscal year 2023 GAAP net loss was negatively
impacted by a non-cash accounting charge of ($6.8) million, or ($0.48) per share related to acquisitions, taken in the third quarter of
the year. |

| 1 | We use the following business metrics in this release
because we believe they are useful in evaluating Zedge as an investment. |
| ● | Monthly active users, or MAU, captures
the number of unique users that used our Zedge App during the previous 30-days of the relevant period, is useful for evaluating consumer
engagement with our App which correlates to advertising revenue as more users drive more ad impressions for sale. It also allows readers
and potential advertisers to evaluate the size of our user base. |
| ● | Zedge
Premium Gross Transaction Value, or GTV, is the total dollar amount of transactions conducted through the Zedge Premium Marketplace.
As Zedge Premium is an internal focus for growth, we believe that this metric will help investors evaluate the progress we are making
in growing this part of our business. |
| ● | Average Revenue Per Monthly Active User for
our Zedge App, or ARPMAU, is a useful statistic in evaluating how well we are monetizing our user base. |
| ● | An Active Subscription is a subscription
that has commenced and not been canceled, including paused subscriptions and subscriptions in free trials, grace periods, or account hold. |
| ● | Total Installs - Cumulative measures the
cumulative number of times the Zedge App has been downloaded since inception. |
| 2 | Throughout this release, Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP
financial measure intended to provide useful information that supplements Zedge’s results in accordance with GAAP. Please refer
to the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measure at the end of this release for an explanation of Zedge’s formulation of Adjusted
EBITDA and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measure. |

Fiscal 2024 Commentary
“We have never been in a better position to create
sustainable, long-term and profitable growth in light of our promising market opportunities, robust product portfolio and roadmap, improved
marketing prowess, enhanced data and analytics capabilities, tech stack, and, above all, our exceptional team. We are excited about moving
our growth strategy forward in fiscal 2024.
“To drive this growth, we will capitalize on the experience
we have gained and are further developing in generative AI, marketing, data and analytics, gamification and monetization. This will allow
us to increase investment in marketing; embed generative AI across products, marketing and operations; focus on retention and engagement
mechanics; and improve monetization.
“In the coming months, we have several new product
initiatives planned for the Zedge Marketplace focusing on generative AI, including availing pAInt globally, introducing pAInt on the web,
and, in early calendar 2024, reimagining generative AI with a stand-alone AI app. We will also start testing the sale of print-on-demand
merchandise as a product and revenue enhancer.
“For GuruShots, we will continue our incremental launch
of ‘Battles,’ a hybrid casual gameplay, which we anticipate will widen the top of the funnel and make the game relevant to
a broader audience. Simultaneously, we are improving the GuruShots’ onboarding experience while investing in marketing initiatives.
“We will also continue to innovate with Emojipedia.
In fiscal 2024, we plan to test features like emoji translations and mashups, new content verticals, including emoticons, and even hyper-casual
emoji games.
“Finally, we are targeting a global launch of AI Art
Master, our new hybrid casual game that taps into the explosive growth of the generative AI market and enables users to create compelling
AI content to compete against like-minded players in fun, fast-paced, theme-based competitions. AI Art Master positions us well to benefit
from strong adoption of generative AI and attractive growth opportunities in mobile gaming. We are currently in soft launch in five countries
and will continue expanding the game’s availability as we iterate and improve. We believe AI Art Master may have the potential to
become a fourth core product for us.
“In summary, through innovation and diversification,
we are positioning Zedge for sustainable growth with multiple avenues to achieve these goals in the coming years. While we remain conscious
of external factors impacting the industry, economy and geopolitics overall, we are making the necessary investments to take more control
of our destiny,” concluded Reich.

Use of Adjusted EBITDA as a Non-GAAP Measure
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings (loss) before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock compensation expense, transaction-related expenses and other non-recurring expenses. This
metric represents a measure that we believe is customarily used by investors and analysts to evaluate the financial performance of companies
in addition to the GAAP measures we present. Our management also believes this measure is useful in evaluating our core operating results.
However, Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America and should not be considered an alternative to net income or operating income as an indicator of our operating performance
or to net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.
