Skillz reports Q2 EPS $1.44, consensus ($1.36)

Reports Q2 revenue $25.3M, consensus $26.6M. “Skillz’ second quarter results mark continued progress against our strategic initiatives to position the Company to deliver consistent revenue growth and positive cash flow,” said Andrew Paradise, Skillz’ CEO. “Progress in the second quarter includes our first quarterly sequential increase in Paying Monthly Average Users in ten quarters. During the quarter we also extended the pattern of the last several quarters of customer acquisition systemwide paybacks trending towards six months. Given the success of these initiatives we will prudently scale our spend to grow our paying user base while maintaining our focus on optimizing the return on our customer acquisition costs and growing long-term player value. By executing on our strategic initiatives we are positioning Skillz to generate positive Adjusted EBITDA and unlock the significant shareholder value inherent in our platform and business.”
