Travelzoo expects Q2 revenue to double

The company said, “For Q2 we expect year-over-year revenue growth to double. We expect revenue growth to accelerate as a trend in subsequent quarters, as membership fees revenue is recognized ratably over the subscription period, as we acquire new members, and as more Legacy Members become Club Members. Over time, we expect profitability to increase as recurring membership fees revenue will be recognized. In the short-term, fluctuations in reported net income are possible because we might see attractive opportunities to increase marketing. We expense marketing costs immediately. In 2024, we introduced a membership fee for Travelzoo (TZOO). Legacy Members, who joined prior to 2024, continue to receive certain travel offers. However, Club Offers and new benefits are only available to Club Members, who pay the membership fee. Therefore, we are seeing many Legacy Members become Club Members over time-in addition to new members who join.”
