NEW
YORK, May 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Voyager
Digital Ltd. ("Voyager" or the "Company") (TSX: VOYG) (OTCQX:
VYGVF) (FRA: UCD2) one of the fastest-growing, publicly traded
cryptocurrency platforms in the United
States, today announced revenue and user metrics for the
fiscal 2022 third quarter ended March 31,
2022.
"We performed strongly amidst the challenging macroeconomic and
lower trading volumes seen across our industry," said Steve Ehrlich, CEO and Co-founder of Voyager.
"Despite market conditions, we continued to deliver customer
account and net deposit growth, while continuing to build upon our
revenue diversification strategy."
"With the announcement of the private placement of approximately
USD$60 million, the Company has over
$225 million of net liquidity,
comprised of over $175 million in
cash, and approximately $50 million
in crypto. With the recent changes to our rewards model and
actively addressing our cost structure to ensure an efficient use
of capital, we are working toward a goal of returning to positive
operating income, after adding back stock-based compensation, in
early calendar 2023. Ehrlich continued, "Additionally, in the
quarter we successfully launched our extremely popular moon mode
and on-boarded customers to the beta programs for both our debit
card and desktop app. The debit card is on target and expected to
be deployed to the remainder of the waitlist throughout the quarter
and the desktop app is set to be expanded to a wide group of
customers."
The Company announces the following for fiscal 2022 third
quarter ended March 31, 2022
Financial and Operational Key Metrics:
- Revenue for the quarter is $102.7
million, up 70% compared to $60.4
million for the quarter ended March
31, 2021.
- Operating loss is $43.0 million
for the quarter vs an income of $29.8
million for the quarter ended March
31, 2021. Operating loss/income includes stock-based
compensation of $5.4 million for the
quarter vs $5.3 million for the
quarter ended March 31, 2021,
respectively.
- Total verified users on the platform stand at 3.5 million, up
9% from 3.2 million at the quarter ended December 31, 2021.
- Total funded accounts reached 1,190,000 as of March 31, 2022, up 11% from 1,074,000 at the
quarter ended December 31, 2021.
- Total Assets on Platform decreased to $5.8 billion from $6.0
billion at December 31,
2021.
- Our headcount increased to 318 as of March 31, 2022, from 250 at December 31, 2021.
All figures are preliminary and unaudited and subject to
final adjustment. All amounts are in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise
indicated.
The company is also pleased to announce Ashwin Prithipaul as Chief Financial Officer. He
comes to Voyager with deep financial leadership experience,
including as the former CFO of Galaxy Digital. In conjunction with
this, Evan Psaropoulos is moving
into a new role as Chief Commercial Officer to build out the
Company's revenue diversification as well as partner with the new
CFO in creating cost efficiencies.
"In closing, we strongly believe we are in the early stages of
global crypto adoption. Voyager remains very well capitalized to
strategically grow our business and serve consumers amidst a
rapidly evolving crypto landscape," Ehrlich added.

Forward Looking
Statements
Certain information in this press release, including, but not
limited to, statements regarding future growth and performance of
the business, momentum in the businesses, future adoption of
digital assets, and the Company's anticipated results may
constitute forward looking information or forward-looking
statements, (collectively referred to as "forward-looking
statements")which can be identified by the use of terms such as
"may," "will," "should," "expect," "anticipate," "project,"
"estimate," "intend," "continue" or "believe" (or the negatives) or
other similar variations under applicable securities laws.
Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors that may cause Voyager's actual
results, performance or achievements to be materially different
from any of its future results, performance or achievements
expressed or implied by forward-looking statements. Moreover, we
operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New
risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our
management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of
all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or
combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ
materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements
we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and
assumptions, the future events and trends discussed in this press
release may not occur and actual results could differ materially
and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the
forward-looking statements. Forward looking statements are subject
to the risk that the global economy, industry, or the Company's
businesses and investments do not perform as anticipated, that
revenue or expenses estimates may not be met or may be materially
less or more than those anticipated, that trading momentum does not
continue or the demand for trading solutions declines, customer
acquisition does not increase as planned, product and international
expansion do not occur as planned, risks of compliance with laws
and regulations that currently apply or become applicable to the
business or the interpretation or application of laws and
regulations by regulatory authorities, and those other risks
contained in the Company's public filings, including in its
Management Discussion and Analysis and its Annual Information Form
(AIF). Factors that could cause actual results of the Company and
its businesses to differ materially from those described in such
forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, a
decline in the digital asset market or general economic conditions;
changes in laws or approaches to regulation, regulatory
investigations, enforcement actions or other regulatory action or
sanction, the failure or delay in the adoption of digital
assets and the blockchain ecosystem by institutions; changes in the
volatility of crypto currency, changes in demand for Bitcoin and
Ethereum, changes in the status or classification of cryptocurrency
assets, cybersecurity breaches, a delay or failure in developing
infrastructure for the trading businesses or achieving mandates and
gaining traction; failure to grow assets on platform, an adverse
development with respect to an issuer or party to the transaction
or failure to obtain a required regulatory approval. In connection
with the forward-looking statements contained in this press
release, the Company has made assumptions that no significant
events occur outside of the Company's normal course of business and
that current trends in respect of digital assets continue. Readers
are cautioned that the key metrics disclosed in this press release,
including, without limitation, Assets on Platform and trading
volumes fluctuate and may increase and decrease from time to time
and that such fluctuations are beyond the Company's control.
Forward-looking statements, past and present performance and trends
are not guarantees of future performance, accordingly, you should
not put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, current or
past performance, or current or past trends. Information
identifying assumptions, risks, and uncertainties relating to the
Company are contained in its filings with the Canadian securities
regulators available at www.sedar.com. The forward-looking
statements in this press release are applicable only as of the date
of this release or as of the date specified in the relevant
forward-looking statement and the Company undertakes no obligation
to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or
circumstances after that date or to reflect the occurrence of
unanticipated events. The Company assumes no obligation to provide
operational updates, except as required by law. If the Company does
update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should
be drawn that it will make additional updates with respect to those
or other forward-looking statements, unless required by
law. Readers are cautioned that past performance is not
indicative of future performance and current trends in the business
and demand for digital assets may not continue and readers should
not put undue reliance on past performance and current
trends. Refer to definition of certain Non-IFRS terms in
Management's Discussion and Analysis including Assets On Platform,
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Working Capital. All figures are
