Ibotta, Inc. (NYSE: IBTA), which operates the largest digital promotions network in North America, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2024.

“2024 was a year of significant growth and change for Ibotta,” said Ibotta CEO and founder, Bryan Leach. “We completed our IPO on the New York Stock Exchange, added Family Dollar, AppCard, Schnucks and Instacart to the IPN, and grew our non-GAAP revenue by 20% all while expanding our adjusted EBITDA margins substantially. In 2025, we are focused both on executing against our near-term financial objectives while at the same time introducing major new innovations in measurement and targeting.”

Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights:

• Total revenue of $98.4 million, representing year-over-year decline of 1%. Excluding a one-time breakage benefit of $0.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, non-GAAP revenue growth was flat.
• Total redemption revenue of $82.4 million, an increase of 6% year-over-year. Excluding a one-time breakage benefit of $0.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, non-GAAP redemption revenue growth was 7%.
• During the quarter, the IPN had 17.2 million redeemers, compared to 13.6 million redeemers in the fourth quarter of 2023, an increase of 27% year-over-year. The primary driver of year-over-year growth was the launch of Instacart during the fourth quarter, like-for-like growth of Walmart’s audience, and the launch of Family Dollar in Q2.
• Increased redemptions to 94.6 million, compared to 93.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, an increase of 1% year-over-year.
• Generated net income of $76.2 million, representing net income as a percent of revenue of 77%, driven in part by a benefit from income taxes, and adjusted net income of $22.4 million, representing adjusted net income as a percent of revenue of 23%.
• Delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $27.8 million, representing an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 28%.
• Generated cash from operating activities of $22.0 million and free cash flow of $19.4 million.
• Repurchased 0.2 million shares for a total of $15.6 million at an average price per share of $64.12, exclusive of immaterial broker commissions.

• The IPN averaged 14.7 million redeemers in 2024, compared to 8.2 million redeemers in 2023, an increase of 78% year-over-year. The primary driver of year-over-year growth was the expansion of the Walmart program to all Walmart customers with a Walmart.com account in the third quarter of 2023, the launch of Instacart during the fourth quarter of 2024, like-for-like growth of Walmart’s audience, and the launch of Family Dollar in Q2 2024.

Financial Guidance:

First quarter 2025 outlook summary:

• Revenue of $80 - $84 million, a year-over-year increase of 0% at the midpoint
• Adjusted EBITDA of $10 - $14 million, representing a margin of 15% at the midpoint.

Guidance for Adjusted EBITDA is earnings before interest (income) expense, net, provision for (benefit from) income tax, and depreciation and amortization, and excludes stock-based compensation, change in fair value of derivative, loss on debt extinguishment, restructuring charges, and other expense, net. We have not reconciled Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income for our guidance because we do not provide guidance on GAAP net income and would not be able to present the various reconciling cash and non-cash items between the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures since certain items that impact these measures are uncertain or out of our control, or cannot be reasonably predicted, including share-based compensation expense, without unreasonable effort. The actual amounts of such reconciling items could have a significant impact on the Company's GAAP net income.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

Included within this press release are the non-GAAP financial measures of non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP redemption revenue, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income as a percent of revenue, adjusted diluted net income per share and free cash flow that supplement the condensed financial statements of the Company prepared under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only and is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Please see the accompanying tables for reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest GAAP equivalents.

Non-GAAP revenue and non-GAAP redemption revenue exclude the breakage benefit. Adjusted EBITDA is earnings before interest (income) expense, net, provision for (benefit from) income tax, and depreciation and amortization, and excludes stock-based compensation, change in fair value of derivative, loss on debt extinguishment, and other expense, net. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA as a percent of revenue. Adjusted net income excludes stock-based compensation, loss on debt extinguishment, change in fair value of derivative, and the related income tax effects. The income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments is the difference between GAAP and non-GAAP income tax expense. Non-GAAP income tax expense is computed on non-GAAP pre-tax income (GAAP pre-tax income adjusted for non-GAAP adjustments). Adjusted diluted net income per share is calculated as adjusted net income divided by diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities, less additions to property and equipment and capitalization of software development costs.

The Company's management believes that these non-GAAP measures can assist investors in evaluating the Company's operational trends, financial performance, and cash-generating capacity. Management believes these non-GAAP measures allow investors to evaluate the Company’s financial performance using some of the same measures as management. Investors are cautioned that there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures versus their nearest GAAP equivalents. The Company’s definitions may differ from the definitions used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. In addition, other companies may not publish these or similar metrics. These non-GAAP measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures, but are included solely for informational and comparative purposes. Non-GAAP financial measures are subject to limitations and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. In light of these limitations, management also reviews the specific items that are excluded from our non-GAAP measures, as well as trends in these items.

Key Business Terms and Notes

Ibotta Performance Network (IPN): An AI-enabled technology platform that allows CPG brands to deliver digital promotions to consumers via a network of publishers, in a coordinated fashion and on a fee-per-sale basis.

One-time Breakage Benefit: On the Company’s balance sheet, the Company has a user redemption liability balance that is an accumulation of direct-to-consumer redeemers’ account balances net of estimated breakage. Consumers’ accounts that have no activity for six months are considered inactive and charged a $3.99 per month maintenance fee (i.e., breakage) until the balance is reduced to zero or new activity ensues. Every month, the user redemption liability increases by the amount credited to D2C redeemers for redemptions and is offset by D2C redeemer cash outs, actual inactivity maintenance fees, and estimated breakage. The Company estimates breakage at the time of user redemption and reduces the user redemption liability accordingly. In 2023, the Company made an update to fix a software error to correctly charge maintenance fees to all inactive D2C redeemers on a go-forward basis. This change resulted in a short-term benefit to U.S. GAAP revenue in 2023. For the quarter and year ended December 31, 2023, the breakage benefit to revenue totaled $0.8 million and $13.5 million, respectively. There was no breakage benefit associated with the quarter and year ended December 31, 2024.

Redeemers: ​​A consumer who has redeemed at least one digital offer within the time period specified. If a consumer were to redeem on more than one publisher during that period, they would be counted as multiple redeemers. Year-to-date redeemers are calculated as the average of current year quarter-to-date redeemers.

Redemptions: A verified purchase of an item qualifying for an offer by a client on the IPN.

Redemption Revenue: The Company’s customers promote their products and services to consumers through cash back offers on the IPN. The Company earns a fee per redemption which is recognized in the period in which the redemption occurred. The Company may also charge fees to set up a redemption campaign which are deferred and recognized over the average duration of historical redemption campaigns.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Any statements relating to expectations concerning matters that are not historical facts may constitute forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may include, without limitation, statements by our CEO and founder about our ability to transition our product and go-to-market, and the Company’s financial guidance, such as revenue and Adjusted EBITDA. When words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “will”, “outlook” or similar expressions are used, the Company is making forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it cannot give readers any assurance that such expectations will prove correct. These forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those related to the Company’s relatively limited operating history, which makes it difficult to evaluate the Company’s business and prospects, the demands and expectations of clients and the ability to attract and retain clients. The actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of numerous factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. These and other factors are disclosed in the Company’s reports filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, available at www.sec.gov. Readers are urged not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release.
