The exchanges, respectively, suffered their worst daily falls since September 2020 and February 2021.</p><p>Shares of other social media companies also took a beating. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter</a> Inc dropped 5.6%, while Pinterest Inc and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNAP\">Snap Inc</a> slumped 10.3% and 23.6% respectively ahead of reporting their own earnings after the bell.</p><p>Big tech stocks such as Alphabet Inc and Microsoft Corp fell more than 3%, while Amazon.com Inc slumped 7.8%, before it was scheduled to release results.</p><p>&#34;As we&#39;ve gotten numbers in recent days, what we&#39;re seeing is the delivery of earnings being rewarded or penalized, and if you continue to deliver strong earnings growth, the market will reward that,&#34; said Maxwell Grinacoff, U.S. equity &amp; derivatives strategist at BNP Paribas.</p><p>&#34;In a rising rate environment, as we progress through the year, we expect to see more divergence between the higher quality names, such as the megacaps, and lower quality names which are not making any money.&#34;</p><p>Financial technology companies saw a second day of selling, after <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PYPL\">PayPal</a> Holdings Inc&#39;s disappointing earnings on Tuesday caused investors to question if these firms - which benefited significantly from the pandemic advancing the shift to digital payments - would justify steep valuations in 2022.</p><p>PayPal dropped 6.2%, while peers <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SQ\">Block</a> Inc, Affirm Holdings Inc and SoFi Technologies slipped between 4.9% and 11%.</p><p>Tech stocks have enjoyed a dominant period amid low interest rates, as investors sought out high growth, but with inflation rising and the U.S. Federal Reserve signaling an aggressive rate-hike stance to rein it in, money managers are having to adjust portfolios accordingly.</p><p>&#34;People are going to start increasing allocations to value stocks, and to do that they will have to sell their growth stocks, even if they are down 15% to 30%,&#34;

The exchanges, respectively, suffered their worst daily falls since September 2020 and February 2021.Shares of other social media companies also took a beating. Twitter Inc dropped 5.6%, while Pinterest Inc and Snap Inc slumped 10.3% and 23.6% respectively ahead of reporting their own earnings after the bell.Big tech stocks such as Alphabet Inc and Microsoft Corp fell more than 3%, while Amazon.com Inc slumped 7.8%, before it was scheduled to release results.\"As we've gotten numbers in recent days, what we're seeing is the delivery of earnings being rewarded or penalized, and if you continue to deliver strong earnings growth, the market will reward that,\" said Maxwell Grinacoff, U.S. equity & derivatives strategist at BNP Paribas.\"In a rising rate environment, as we progress through the year, we expect to see more divergence between the higher quality names, such as the megacaps, and lower quality names which are not making any money.\"Financial technology companies saw a second day of selling, after PayPal Holdings Inc's disappointing earnings on Tuesday caused investors to question if these firms - which benefited significantly from the pandemic advancing the shift to digital payments - would justify steep valuations in 2022.PayPal dropped 6.2%, while peers Block Inc, Affirm Holdings Inc and SoFi Technologies slipped between 4.9% and 11%.Tech stocks have enjoyed a dominant period amid low interest rates, as investors sought out high growth, but with inflation rising and the U.S. Federal Reserve signaling an aggressive rate-hike stance to rein it in, money managers are having to adjust portfolios accordingly.\"People are going to start increasing allocations to value stocks, and to do that they will have to sell their growth stocks, even if they are down 15% to 30%,\" said Jack Murphy, co-chief investment officer of Easterly Investment Partners.The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 518.17 points, or 1.45%, to 35,111.16, the S&P 500 lost 111.94 points, or 2.44%, to 4,477.44 and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 538.73 points, or 3.74%, to 13,878.82.Communication services was the worst performer of the major S&P 500 sectors, weighed by Meta's performance.One of the few bright spots among its sector constituents was T-Mobile US Inc, which advanced 10.2% after posting both positive numbers and outlook.The CBOE volatility index, Wall Street's fear gauge, moved up after hitting a near three-week low in the previous session.Adding to the market's woes was a second rate hike by the Bank of England and a hawkish pivot by the European Central Bank's President Christine Lagarde.Meanwhile, the number of Americans filing new claims for unemployment benefits fell more than expected last week as COVID-19 infections subsided, suggesting that an anticipated slowdown in job growth in January was likely temporary.Volume on U.S. exchanges was 10.85 billion shares, compared with the 12.37 billion average for the full session over the last 20 trading days.The S&P 500 posted 29 new 52-week highs and six new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 34 new highs and 149 new lows.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":664,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9091710811,"gmtCreate":1643939924898,"gmtModify":1676533874242,"author":{"id":"3582186770863797","authorId":"3582186770863797","name":"Pschoa","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6048d8c3ccf7b9e4abd018d7a405e329","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hi","listText":"Hi","text":"Hi","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9091710811","repostId":"2208313868","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2208313868","pubTimestamp":1643929200,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2208313868?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-02-04 07:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Amazon Stock Surges on Strong Q4 Results, Prime Membership Price Increase","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2208313868","media":"StreetInsider","summary":"Amazon  shares were trading 14% higher after-hours following the company’s Q4 results, with EPS of $","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon </a> shares were trading 14% higher after-hours following the company’s Q4 results, with EPS of $27.75 coming in better than the consensus estimate of $3.58.

Clorox's losses today show that even stocks that appear safe can see big losses, and investors have to be prepared for whatever may come -- including a crash in which Clorox and other defensive stocks drop along with the overall market.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":207,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":805517311,"gmtCreate":1627891841933,"gmtModify":1703497293640,"author":{"id":"3582186770863797","authorId":"3582186770863797","name":"Pschoa","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6048d8c3ccf7b9e4abd018d7a405e329","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hilloe","listText":"Hilloe","text":"Hilloe","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":10,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/805517311","repostId":"1193646270","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1193646270","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1627891794,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1193646270?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-02 16:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"NIO delivered 7,931 vehicles in July 2021, and rose 1% in premarket trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1193646270","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":" $NIO Inc.$ delivered 7,931 vehicles in July 2021, representing a strong 124.5% year-over-year growth.

Jobless claims have fallen considerably since the start of the year amid growing labor demand, but the Delta variant that’s fueled a recent surge in new infections across the country poses a risk.\nSeveral Fed officials are also scheduled to speak during the week, including Boston Fed President Eric Rosengren, Fed Vice Chair Richard Clarida and Fed Governor Christopher Waller.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":147,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":802579407,"gmtCreate":1627791532309,"gmtModify":1703495948792,"author":{"id":"3582186770863797","authorId":"3582186770863797","name":"Pschoa","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6048d8c3ccf7b9e4abd018d7a405e329","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hui","listText":"Hui","text":"Hui","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/802579407","repostId":"1127411624","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":25,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":159578230,"gmtCreate":1624975624620,"gmtModify":1703849260875,"author":{"id":"3582186770863797","authorId":"3582186770863797","name":"Pschoa","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6048d8c3ccf7b9e4abd018d7a405e329","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hhi","listText":"Hhi","text":"Hhi","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/159578230","repostId":"1142501982","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1142501982","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1624974689,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1142501982?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-29 21:51","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Confluent shares rose more than 8% to a new high","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1142501982","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Confluent shares rose more than 8% to a new high.Confluent surged more than 60% since its IPO.\n\nConf","content":"<p>Confluent shares rose more than 8% to a new high.Confluent surged more than 60% since its IPO.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/683b93c9d95124ef30e1d744eeae4da4\" tg-width=\"840\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Confluent's IPO date on Nasdaq was June 24.&nbsp;The company priced its shares at $36 to raise $828&nbsp;million through an offering of 23 million shares, under the ticker CFLT.

Still unsure about what an NFT is after reading yet another article that tries to explain it in layman's terms? Or maybe it's something completely different. Whatever the reason, turning away from the latest investing fads and grounding your portfolio with reliable stocks that won't lead you to lose any sleep at night is a wise investing move regardless of the motivation.</p>\n<p>Granted, they may not be the trendiest tickers in investing circles, but <b>Air Products &amp; Chemicals</b> (NYSE:APD), <b>American States Water</b> (NYSE:AWR), and <b>Stanley Black &amp; Decker</b> (NYSE:SWK) are three distinguished stocks that have well-established track records of success and are certainly worth keeping in your portfolio for the long haul.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/666d8ea342ee45d481c3a498d4be57e0\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>1. Air Products &amp; Chemicals</h2>\n<p>When looking for stocks to hold onto indefinitely, a good starting place is to look for industry leaders, and in the case of the production of industrial gases and related equipment, Air Products fits the bill. Operating in 50 countries, Air Products serves over 170,000 customers in more than 30 industries, and it's the largest publicly traded company specializing in chemicals. Size isn't everything, but it does count for something, and for Air Products, it suggests a formidable competitive advantage. In addition to the fact that there aren't a preponderance of upstart companies looking to enter the industrial gases market, the leading position that Air Products holds suggests that it's well-positioned for the long term.</p>\n<p>Despite a sell-off in February following an earnings miss, Air Products has climbed more than 9% since the start of 2021, lagging behind the <b>S&amp;P 500</b>, which has risen nearly 11%.&nbsp;Consider how impressively the stock has outperformed the market over the past 20 years, however, and it becomes apparent that Air Products has been a long-term winner for investors.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b7b77ccf6157d514444ae044dc525601\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"435\"><span>APD data by YCharts.</span></p>\n<p>Granted, the stock's previous performance doesn't guarantee that it will fare as well in the future, but it's certainly worth acknowledging. What can drive the stock higher in the years (and even decades) to come? Aside from growing its presence in traditional markets like natural gas, the company's commanding position in the burgeoning hydrogen economy through projects like NEOM in Saudi Arabia certainly bodes well for investors.</p>\n<h2>2. American States Water</h2>\n<p>Comb through the ocean of stocks that are possible investments, and you'll find that that, oftentimes, it's the boring businesses that make for the best long-term holdings -- boring businesses like water utilities. No, you won't find American States Water rivaling SPACs and cryptocurrencies for headlines, but it's an indispensable business that will never go out of fashion.</p>\n<p>Although American States Water has a subsidiary that provides contracted water and wastewater services to the U.S. government, the majority of the company's revenue and earnings come from the company's two regulated businesses: Golden State Water Company, which provides water and wastewater services to about 262,000 customers in California, and Bear Valley Electric Service, an electric utility that serves about 25,000 customers. In 2020, for example, American States Water reported that the two regulated utilities accounted for 75% and 80% of revenue and net income, respectively.</p>\n<p>Aside from the nature of the business, American States Water's dividend provides further evidence why it's a worthy lifelong holding. Paying a dividend to shareholders in every year since 1931 and raising it every year for the past 66 consecutive years, American States Water is a dividend king, putting it in rarefied air among dividend payers. From 2010 through 2020, the company has increased its dividend at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.4%, and management seems intent on continuing to raise it at a significant clip for the foreseeable future. In a recent investor presentation, management stated that it's targeting a 7% CAGR in the future.</p>\n<h2>3. Stanley Black &amp; Decker</h2>\n<p>While Air Products and American States Water aren't household names, Stanley Black &amp; Decker may sound more familiar. Professional handymen and ordinary do-it-yourselfers alike can probably reach into their toolboxes and pull out something that bears the name of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of Stanley's brands such as Craftsman and DeWalt -- let alone the company's namesakes Stanley and Black &amp; Decker. And it's not only American toolboxes where Stanley thrives; the company generated 40% of its revenue in 2020 from foreign markets.</p>\n<p>Besides the company's brand recognition, management's dedication to shareholders represents another reason why Stanley is worth buying and holding. Like American States Water, Stanley is a dividend king. It has returned cash to shareholders by way of a dividend for 144 consecutive years, and the company has raised it for the past 53 consecutive years. Looking ahead, management has targeted returning 50% of free cash flow to investors through dividends and share buybacks, while the other 50% will be used for acquisitions.</p>\n<p>Think Stanley's stock can help you build a better portfolio? If so, now seems like a good time to pick up shares. The stock is trading at 14.6 times operating cash flow, slightly less expensive than its five-year average multiple of 15. Consider the price tag from an earnings perspective and the bargain seems even sweeter. Currently, shares are changing hands at 21.3 times earnings, representing a discount to its five-year average P/E ratio of 23.7.</p>\n<h2>Summing up stocks that'll help you sleep soundly</h2>\n<p>Tossing and turning at night because you're afraid <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of your volatile holdings may be ready to plunge and not recover? There's an easy solution: buy quality stocks that offer a high probability of long-term success.

Still unsure about what an NFT is after reading yet another article that tries to explain it in layman's terms? Or maybe it's something completely different. Whatever the reason, turning away from the latest investing fads and grounding your portfolio with reliable stocks that won't lead you to lose any sleep at night is a wise investing move regardless of the motivation.\nGranted, they may not be the trendiest tickers in investing circles, but Air Products & Chemicals (NYSE:APD), American States Water (NYSE:AWR), and Stanley Black & Decker (NYSE:SWK) are three distinguished stocks that have well-established track records of success and are certainly worth keeping in your portfolio for the long haul.\nImage source: Getty Images.\n1. Air Products & Chemicals\nWhen looking for stocks to hold onto indefinitely, a good starting place is to look for industry leaders, and in the case of the production of industrial gases and related equipment, Air Products fits the bill. Operating in 50 countries, Air Products serves over 170,000 customers in more than 30 industries, and it's the largest publicly traded company specializing in chemicals. Size isn't everything, but it does count for something, and for Air Products, it suggests a formidable competitive advantage. In addition to the fact that there aren't a preponderance of upstart companies looking to enter the industrial gases market, the leading position that Air Products holds suggests that it's well-positioned for the long term.\nDespite a sell-off in February following an earnings miss, Air Products has climbed more than 9% since the start of 2021, lagging behind the S&P 500, which has risen nearly 11%. Consider how impressively the stock has outperformed the market over the past 20 years, however, and it becomes apparent that Air Products has been a long-term winner for investors.\nAPD data by YCharts.\nGranted, the stock's previous performance doesn't guarantee that it will fare as well in the future, but it's certainly worth acknowledging. What can drive the stock higher in the years (and even decades) to come? Aside from growing its presence in traditional markets like natural gas, the company's commanding position in the burgeoning hydrogen economy through projects like NEOM in Saudi Arabia certainly bodes well for investors.\n2. American States Water\nComb through the ocean of stocks that are possible investments, and you'll find that that, oftentimes, it's the boring businesses that make for the best long-term holdings -- boring businesses like water utilities. No, you won't find American States Water rivaling SPACs and cryptocurrencies for headlines, but it's an indispensable business that will never go out of fashion.\nAlthough American States Water has a subsidiary that provides contracted water and wastewater services to the U.S. government, the majority of the company's revenue and earnings come from the company's two regulated businesses: Golden State Water Company, which provides water and wastewater services to about 262,000 customers in California, and Bear Valley Electric Service, an electric utility that serves about 25,000 customers. In 2020, for example, American States Water reported that the two regulated utilities accounted for 75% and 80% of revenue and net income, respectively.\nAside from the nature of the business, American States Water's dividend provides further evidence why it's a worthy lifelong holding. Paying a dividend to shareholders in every year since 1931 and raising it every year for the past 66 consecutive years, American States Water is a dividend king, putting it in rarefied air among dividend payers. From 2010 through 2020, the company has increased its dividend at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.4%, and management seems intent on continuing to raise it at a significant clip for the foreseeable future. In a recent investor presentation, management stated that it's targeting a 7% CAGR in the future.\n3. Stanley Black & Decker\nWhile Air Products and American States Water aren't household names, Stanley Black & Decker may sound more familiar. Professional handymen and ordinary do-it-yourselfers alike can probably reach into their toolboxes and pull out something that bears the name of one of Stanley's brands such as Craftsman and DeWalt -- let alone the company's namesakes Stanley and Black & Decker. And it's not only American toolboxes where Stanley thrives; the company generated 40% of its revenue in 2020 from foreign markets.\nBesides the company's brand recognition, management's dedication to shareholders represents another reason why Stanley is worth buying and holding. Like American States Water, Stanley is a dividend king. It has returned cash to shareholders by way of a dividend for 144 consecutive years, and the company has raised it for the past 53 consecutive years. Looking ahead, management has targeted returning 50% of free cash flow to investors through dividends and share buybacks, while the other 50% will be used for acquisitions.\nThink Stanley's stock can help you build a better portfolio? If so, now seems like a good time to pick up shares. The stock is trading at 14.6 times operating cash flow, slightly less expensive than its five-year average multiple of 15. Consider the price tag from an earnings perspective and the bargain seems even sweeter. Currently, shares are changing hands at 21.3 times earnings, representing a discount to its five-year average P/E ratio of 23.7.\nSumming up stocks that'll help you sleep soundly\nTossing and turning at night because you're afraid one of your volatile holdings may be ready to plunge and not recover? There's an easy solution: buy quality stocks that offer a high probability of long-term success. An industrial gas leader like Air Products and industrials powerhouse like Stanley Black & Decker certainly fit the bill, but if you're looking for even less risk, try dipping your toes in the water with a utility like American States Water.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":56,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9091710811,"gmtCreate":1643939924898,"gmtModify":1676533874242,"author":{"id":"3582186770863797","authorId":"3582186770863797","name":"Pschoa","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6048d8c3ccf7b9e4abd018d7a405e329","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hi","listText":"Hi","text":"Hi","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9091710811","repostId":"2208313868","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2208313868","pubTimestamp":1643929200,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2208313868?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-02-04 07:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Amazon Stock Surges on Strong Q4 Results, Prime Membership Price Increase","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2208313868","media":"StreetInsider","summary":"Amazon  shares were trading 14% higher after-hours following the company’s Q4 results, with EPS of $","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon </a> shares were trading 14% higher after-hours following the company’s Q4 results, with EPS of $27.75 coming in better than the consensus estimate of $3.58.

Consensus economists were looking for job openings to rise to 11.079 million in November, according to Bloomberg data.</p><p>Tuesday&#39;s report extends a streak of elevated readings on job openings. Vacancies rose throughout early 2021 and reached a record high of 11.098 million in July, and have retreated only modestly since then.</p><p>And while the JOLTS report for November does not yet capture any meaningful impact from the Omicron variant discovered around Thanksgiving, some economists suggested labor shortages may be exacerbated at least in the near-term due to the latest surge.</p><p>&#34;Looking ahead, the Omicron variant wave will likely lead to some short-term weakness in the labor market,&#34; Sam Bullard, senior economist for Wells Fargo, wrote in a note published earlier this week. &#34;However, we believe this will be temporary and that the pace of hiring should pick back up by the spring.&#34;</p><p>The JOLTS data also adds to a slew of other reports pointing to the persistent tightness in the U.S. labor market. The last monthly jobs report from the Labor Department showed a disappointing 210,000 non-farm payrolls came back in the penultimate month of last year.The labor force participation rate remained depressed compared to pre-pandemic levels, and the civilian labor force was still down by about 2.4 million participants versus levels from February 2020.

Consensus economists were looking for job openings to rise to 11.079 million in November, according to Bloomberg data.Tuesday's report extends a streak of elevated readings on job openings. Vacancies rose throughout early 2021 and reached a record high of 11.098 million in July, and have retreated only modestly since then.And while the JOLTS report for November does not yet capture any meaningful impact from the Omicron variant discovered around Thanksgiving, some economists suggested labor shortages may be exacerbated at least in the near-term due to the latest surge.\"Looking ahead, the Omicron variant wave will likely lead to some short-term weakness in the labor market,\" Sam Bullard, senior economist for Wells Fargo, wrote in a note published earlier this week. \"However, we believe this will be temporary and that the pace of hiring should pick back up by the spring.\"The JOLTS data also adds to a slew of other reports pointing to the persistent tightness in the U.S. labor market. The last monthly jobs report from the Labor Department showed a disappointing 210,000 non-farm payrolls came back in the penultimate month of last year.The labor force participation rate remained depressed compared to pre-pandemic levels, and the civilian labor force was still down by about 2.4 million participants versus levels from February 2020.

(NYSE:SPOT) today reported financial results for the first fiscal quarter of 2021 ending March 31, 2021.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/51c69e556f6ac9b18cc7c323ee834c8c\" tg-width=\"701\" tg-height=\"380\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Dear Shareholders,</p><p>We are pleased with our performance in Q1. The business delivered subscriber growth and Gross Margin at the top end of our guidance range, a continued improvement in ARPU, and operating income better than plan. We saw greater MAU variability this quarter, but results were within our range of expectations given the outperformance in Q4 and the continued impact from COVID-19. Revenue grew by 16% (22% excluding the impact of FX) and was at the upper end of our guidance range. Other highlights from the quarter include a successful launch in 86 new markets, a $1.5 billion Exchangeable Notes offering, and the acquisition of Betty Labs (Locker Room).</p><p><b>MONTHLY ACTIVE USERS (“MAUs”)</b></p><p>Total MAUs grew 24% Y/Y to 356 million in the quarter, finishing within our guidance range but modestly below our internal expectations. In Q1, we added 11 million MAUs, which drove healthy double digit Y/Y growth across all regions. We saw meaningful contributions from markets such as the US, Mexico, Russia, and India. However, growth was lower than plan in Latin America and Europe. In aggregate, the performance of our newly launched markets was in line with our expectations.</p><p>Global consumption hours continued to grow meaningfully in Q1 on a Y/Y basis. Per user consumption grew in developed regions such as North America and Europe, while developing regions showed signs of improvement but remained below pre-COVID levels.</p><p><b>PREMIUM SUBSCRIBERS</b></p><p>Our Premium Subscribers grew 21% Y/Y to 158 million in the quarter, hitting the top end of our guidance range. In Q1, we added nearly 4 million subscribers, which drove healthy double digit Y/Y growth across all regions and was strong relative to a tough promotional comparison from Q1 last year. The subscriber outperformance was fairly broad based and led by North America, where we saw stronger than expected performance of Trials &amp; Campaigns and faster than anticipated growth in our Standard product. In Latin America, we saw outperformance driven by the continued success of our Family Plan product. We are pleased with the new market contributions, with South Korea being the biggest driver.</p><p>Our average monthly Premium churn rate for the quarter was down modestly Y/Y and flat Q/Q. The Y/Y improvement continues to be driven by the adoption of our higher retention offerings like Family Plan in addition to growth in high retention regions.</p><p><b>FINANCIAL METRICS</b></p><p><b>Revenue</b></p><p>Total revenue of €2,147 million grew 16% Y/Y in Q1 (22% Y/Y on a constant currency basis). Reported revenue was toward the top end of our guidance range due to subscriber outperformance, slightly lower headwinds from FX (600 bps impact vs. 770 bps incorporated into our plan), and advertising strength. The FX impact was primarily driven by the Y/Y US dollar weakness vs. the Euro. Premium revenue grew 14% Y/Y to €1,931 million (or 19% Y/Y in constant currency terms) while Ad-Supported revenue was particularly strong, growing 46% Y/Y to €216 million (or 57% Y/Y in constant currency terms).</p><p>Within Premium, average revenue per user (“ARPU”) of €4.12 in Q1 was down 7% Y/Y (but down only 1% Y/Y in constant currency terms vs. down 3% Y/Y in Q4). Excluding FX, product mix accounted for the majority of the ARPU decline. To date, we have raised prices across a variety of our Premium offerings in over 30 markets and early results have shown no material impacts to gross intake or cancellation rates. On April 26th, we announced price increases for various subscription products in 12 additional markets, including the United States (Family Plan), United Kingdom (Student, Family, and Duo Plans), and Brazil (Full Portfolio).</p><p>Ad-Supported revenue outperformed our forecast with all regions growing double digits Y/Y excluding the impact of FX. The strength in Ad-Supported revenue was led by our Podcast and Programmatic channels, with the former benefiting from the acquisitions of Megaphone and The Ringer along with our exclusive licensing of the Joe Rogan Experience. Spotify Ad Studio grew substantially Y/Y, and we continued to expand the self-serve offering to more markets (France, Germany, and Italy) and began beta testing podcast inventory ad buying on Spotify Ad Studio in the US. Additionally, in April, we expanded Streaming Ad Insertion (“SAI”) from the US, Canada, United Kingdom, and Germany to also include Australia and Sweden.</p><p>In February, we announced the Spotify Audience Network, a first-of-its-kind audio advertising marketplace which connects advertisers to listeners across Spotify Owned &amp; Exclusive (“O&amp;E”) podcasts, podcasts from enterprise publishers via Megaphone, podcasts from emerging creators via Anchor, and ad-supported music. The Spotify Audience Network bundles multiple shows for advertisers to buy specific audiences using our proprietary SAI technology. We believe this shift will provide advertisers much greater reach and efficiency while creators gain a much greater monetization opportunity.</p><p><b>Gross Margin</b></p><p>Gross Margin finished at 25.5% in Q1, at the top end of our guidance range and flat Y/Y. While we continue to see strong revenue growth in podcast and non-music revenue, our non-music costs continue to grow at a slightly faster rate which is a modest drag on our Gross Margin. We did see improvements in Other Cost of Revenue (e.g. payment fees, streaming delivery costs) which offset the content spend increase.</p><p>Premium Gross Margin was 27.9% in Q1, down 42 bps Y/Y and Ad-Supported Gross Margin was 4.4% in Q1, up 1,100 bps Y/Y. As a reminder, all content costs related to podcast investment are included in the Ad-Supported business for the current and historical periods.</p><p><b>Operating Expenses / Income (Loss)</b></p><p>Operating Expenses totaled €534 million in Q1, an increase of 9% Y/Y and below our plan. Social Charges were approximately €35 million lower than forecast due to a decrease in our share price during the quarter, accounting for the majority of our Operating Expense variance. Excluding the impact of our share price volatility, Operating Expenses grew less than forecast at 14% Y/Y. Certain marketing expenses came in lower than expected due to campaign timing shifts, which were partially offset by higher than expected personnel expenses.</p><p>As a reminder, Social Charges are payroll taxes associated with employee salaries and benefits, including share-based compensation. We are subject to social taxes in several countries in which we operate, although Sweden accounts for the bulk of the social costs. We don’t forecast stock price changes in our guidance so upward or downward movements will impact our reported operating expenses.</p><p>At the end of Q1, our workforce consisted of 6,794 FTEs globally.</p><p><b>Product and Platform</b></p><p>On March 29, 2021, we acquired Betty Labs, the creators of Locker Room, a live audio app that’s changing the way insiders and fans talk about sports. This acquisition builds on our work to create “future formats of audio” and will accelerate Spotify’s entry into the live audio space. We plan to evolve and expand Locker Room into an enhanced live audio experience for a wider range of creators and fans. Through this new live experience, Spotify will offer a range of sports, music, and cultural programming, as well as a host of interactive features that will enable creators to connect with audiences in real time. We intend to give professional athletes, writers, musicians, songwriters, podcasters, and other global voices opportunities to host real-time discussions, debates, ask me anything (AMA) sessions, and more.</p><p>During the quarter, Spotify launched multiple upgrades, including a new Desktop App and Web Player redesign that makes the user experience and navigation easier than ever by combining a modern scalable web player together with a cohesive Spotify design. Additionally, our web platform includes 36 new languages (62 in total), which also will be rolled out to the mobile app, allowing Spotify to reach more audiences.</p><p>We also began testing Podcast Topic Search in the US, which enables listeners to search for podcasts by theme and topic in an effort to make discovering new content easier than ever. In February, we announced a new partnership between Anchor and WordPress to generate opportunities for content creators to evolve their work and reach new audiences through the power of audio. With this new tool, bloggers can publish their written content as a podcast with just a few clicks—and podcasters can create a website for their podcast just as easily. This offers a whole new group of creators—those who have historically focused on the written word—to access an entirely new audience via audio and share their voices on Spotify.</p><p>We remain focused on our ubiquity strategy and continue to expand support for Spotify across a variety of platforms and markets. With the expansion of our footprint into non-music content, we also have expanded support for video podcasts on AppleTV (including AirPlay2), LG, and Comcast. At the end of Q1, users in 10 additional markets, including Sweden, Australia, and Chile, can now ask Alexa to play podcasts from Spotify. Additionally, PlayStation's PS4 and PS5 consoles now support Spotify in 5 new markets, including Russia, Ukraine, Croatia, Slovenia, and Israel.</p><p>Post Q1, we announced a limited launch of Car Thing to eligible US users. Car Thing is a smart player that allows users to more seamlessly engage with Spotify music, news, entertainment, talk, and more in the car. We also launched a joint partnership with Facebook to create an integrated ecosystem with a miniplayer experience driven by social discovery that allows listeners to enjoy audio from Spotify directly within Facebook, without switching between apps. Additionally, we announced new ways for podcast creators to monetize their work with the rollout of Spotify’s Paid Subscriptions, the Spotify Open Access Platform, and utilization of the Spotify Audience Network for independent creators. These initiatives provide creators with different options to monetize their work, which allows them to continue to grow their audiences and create meaningful revenue streams.</p><p><b>Content</b></p><p>At the end of Q1, we had 2.6 million podcasts on the platform (up from more than 2.2 million podcasts by the end of Q4). The percentage of MAUs that engaged with podcast content on our platform was consistent with Q4 levels. From a consumption standpoint, we saw a strong increase in Q1 podcast consumption hours vs. Q4, with March activity driving an all-time high in terms of podcast share of overall platform consumption hours.</p><p>The Joe Rogan Experience performed above expectations with respect to new user additions and engagement. Notable Q1 content launches in the US included Renegades: Born in the USA (Higher Ground), Unlocking Us with Brene Brown (Parcast), Ringer Dish Feed - Taylor Swift (The Ringer), and Welcome To Your Fantasy (Gimlet). Renegades: Born in the USA, featuring former President Barack Obama and Bruce Springsteen, was the second largest podcast on Spotify in March (on an MAU basis) and has been our most international show to-date, with listenership extending across more than 150 countries. Internationally, we released 55 new O&amp;E podcasts. Select launches included a Japanese original Juju Talk, which was a major driver of user acquisition in the country, as well as our first daily new original in Germany, FOMO - was hab ich heute verpasst (what did I miss today?). Additionally, we launched our first slate of 7 Spotify Originals in the Philippines, with topics ranging from gaming to well-being, featuring personalities like Pia Wurtzbach and Donnalyn Bartolome.</p><p>On the music front, key Q1 releases included Olivia Rodrigo’s single,<i>drivers license</i>, which set the Spotify record for most streams in a day for a non-holiday song with over 15 million global streams on January 11. Additional releases include Arlo Parks’ album,<i>Collapsed in Sunbeams</i>, as well as Selena Gomez’s EP,<i>Revelación</i>. Daft Punk and Spotify partnered to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their highly acclaimed 2001 opus<i>Discovery</i>with an enhanced playlist experience after the announcement of the duo splitting up. The playlist included exclusive Canvas and Storylines for every track on the album, and since the start of the campaign, Daft Punk has seen a double digit increase in follows on-platform.</p><p><b>Two-Sided Marketplace</b></p><p>Sponsored Recommendations have shown strong growth and are becoming an essential part of new release marketing strategies for artists and labels. Q1 was the biggest quarter yet for Sponsored Recommendations, with an 11% increase over campaign volume from last quarter and a 10% increase in new customers vs. Q4. In an effort to expand and evolve Sponsored Recommendations, we expanded into Australia and New Zealand and have now made this tool available for singles. Additionally, we began the rollout of a self-serve buying experience for Sponsored Recommendations to select artist and label teams in the US.</p><p>At our Stream On event, we announced that we’re testing a new commercial tool called Discovery Mode with a small group of labels that enables artists to better reach new audiences on Spotify. To ensure the tool is accessible to artists at any stage of their careers, it will not require any upfront budget and instead, labels or rights holders agree to be paid a promotional recording royalty rate for streams in personalized listening sessions where we provided this service. Early results from the labels participating have been positive with participating labels seeing a 30% increase in streams for content opted in on average.</p><p>This quarter, we announced that all artists now have access to our popular feature, Canvas, through Spotify for Artists. The Canvas for Rodrigo’s<i>drivers license</i>was shared from Spotify to Instagram Stories over 243,000 times in its first week alone and was viewed more than 50 million times in its first three weeks. Artists at every stage of their career have used Canvas, and we now have over 1 million Canvases live on Spotify.</p><p>In Q1, we launched Noteable — our new global home for songwriters, producers and publishers which is a central space to access all the resources we’ve made available to the songwriting and publishing community, including Spotify Publishing Analytics, SoundBetter, Songwriter Pages and Song Credits, the Songwriting Hub, and more.</p><p><b>Free Cash Flow</b></p><p>Free Cash Flow was €41 million in Q1, a €61 million increase Y/Y as the prior year included an unfavorable impact to working capital due to a shift in timing for select licensor payments as well as an increase in net income adjusted for non-cash items. These increases were partially offset by higher cash outflow for PP&amp;E.</p><p>In addition to the positive Free Cash Flow dynamics, we maintain a strong liquidity position and are confident in the financial position of the business. During Q1, Spotify USA Inc. issued $1.5 billion in aggregate principal amount, zero coupon Exchangeable Notes due 2026 with a 70% conversion premium. At the end of Q1, we had €3.1 billion in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short term investments.</p><p><b>Q2 &amp; 2021 OUTLOOK</b></p><p>The following forward-looking statements reflect Spotify’s expectations as of April 28, 2021 and are subject to substantial uncertainty. The estimates below utilize the same methodology we’ve used in prior quarters with respect to our guidance and the potential range of outcomes.

The business delivered subscriber growth and Gross Margin at the top end of our guidance range, a continued improvement in ARPU, and operating income better than plan. We saw greater MAU variability this quarter, but results were within our range of expectations given the outperformance in Q4 and the continued impact from COVID-19. Revenue grew by 16% (22% excluding the impact of FX) and was at the upper end of our guidance range. Other highlights from the quarter include a successful launch in 86 new markets, a $1.5 billion Exchangeable Notes offering, and the acquisition of Betty Labs (Locker Room).</p><p><b>MONTHLY ACTIVE USERS (“MAUs”)</b></p><p>Total MAUs grew 24% Y/Y to 356 million in the quarter, finishing within our guidance range but modestly below our internal expectations. In Q1, we added 11 million MAUs, which drove healthy double digit Y/Y growth across all regions. We saw meaningful contributions from markets such as the US, Mexico, Russia, and India. However, growth was lower than plan in Latin America and Europe. In aggregate, the performance of our newly launched markets was in line with our expectations.</p><p>Global consumption hours continued to grow meaningfully in Q1 on a Y/Y basis. Per user consumption grew in developed regions such as North America and Europe, while developing regions showed signs of improvement but remained below pre-COVID levels.</p><p><b>PREMIUM SUBSCRIBERS</b></p><p>Our Premium Subscribers grew 21% Y/Y to 158 million in the quarter, hitting the top end of our guidance range. In Q1, we added nearly 4 million subscribers, which drove healthy double digit Y/Y growth across all regions and was strong relative to a tough promotional comparison from Q1 last year. The subscriber outperformance was fairly broad based and led by North America, where we saw stronger than expected performance of Trials &amp; Campaigns and faster than anticipated growth in our Standard product. In Latin America, we saw outperformance driven by the continued success of our Family Plan product. We are pleased with the new market contributions, with South Korea being the biggest driver.</p><p>Our average monthly Premium churn rate for the quarter was down modestly Y/Y and flat Q/Q. The Y/Y improvement continues to be driven by the adoption of our higher retention offerings like Family Plan in addition to growth in high retention regions.</p><p><b>FINANCIAL METRICS</b></p><p><b>Revenue</b></p><p>Total revenue of €2,147 million grew 16% Y/Y in Q1 (22% Y/Y on a constant currency basis). Reported revenue was toward the top end of our guidance range due to subscriber outperformance, slightly lower headwinds from FX (600 bps impact vs. 770 bps incorporated into our plan), and advertising strength. The FX impact was primarily driven by the Y/Y US dollar weakness vs. the Euro. Premium revenue grew 14% Y/Y to €1,931 million (or 19% Y/Y in constant currency terms) while Ad-Supported revenue was particularly strong, growing 46% Y/Y to €216 million (or 57% Y/Y in constant currency terms).</p><p>Within Premium, average revenue per user (“ARPU”) of €4.12 in Q1 was down 7% Y/Y (but down only 1% Y/Y in constant currency terms vs. down 3% Y/Y in Q4). Excluding FX, product mix accounted for the majority of the ARPU decline. To date, we have raised prices across a variety of our Premium offerings in over 30 markets and early results have shown no material impacts to gross intake or cancellation rates. On April 26th, we announced price increases for various subscription products in 12 additional markets, including the United States (Family Plan), United Kingdom (Student, Family, and Duo Plans), and Brazil (Full Portfolio).</p><p>Ad-Supported revenue outperformed our forecast with all regions growing double digits Y/Y excluding the impact of FX. The strength in Ad-Supported revenue was led by our Podcast and Programmatic channels, with the former benefiting from the acquisitions of Megaphone and The Ringer along with our exclusive licensing of the Joe Rogan Experience. Spotify Ad Studio grew substantially Y/Y, and we continued to expand the self-serve offering to more markets (France, Germany, and Italy) and began beta testing podcast inventory ad buying on Spotify Ad Studio in the US. Additionally, in April, we expanded Streaming Ad Insertion (“SAI”) from the US, Canada, United Kingdom, and Germany to also include Australia and Sweden.</p><p>In February, we announced the Spotify Audience Network, a first-of-its-kind audio advertising marketplace which connects advertisers to listeners across Spotify Owned &amp; Exclusive (“O&amp;E”) podcasts, podcasts from enterprise publishers via Megaphone, podcasts from emerging creators via Anchor, and ad-supported music. The Spotify Audience Network bundles multiple shows for advertisers to buy specific audiences using our proprietary SAI technology. We believe this shift will provide advertisers much greater reach and efficiency while creators gain a much greater monetization opportunity.</p><p><b>Gross Margin</b></p><p>Gross Margin finished at 25.5% in Q1, at the top end of our guidance range and flat Y/Y. While we continue to see strong revenue growth in podcast and non-music revenue, our non-music costs continue to grow at a slightly faster rate which is a modest drag on our Gross Margin. We did see improvements in Other Cost of Revenue (e.g. payment fees, streaming delivery costs) which offset the content spend increase.</p><p>Premium Gross Margin was 27.9% in Q1, down 42 bps Y/Y and Ad-Supported Gross Margin was 4.4% in Q1, up 1,100 bps Y/Y. As a reminder, all content costs related to podcast investment are included in the Ad-Supported business for the current and historical periods.</p><p><b>Operating Expenses / Income (Loss)</b></p><p>Operating Expenses totaled €534 million in Q1, an increase of 9% Y/Y and below our plan. Social Charges were approximately €35 million lower than forecast due to a decrease in our share price during the quarter, accounting for the majority of our Operating Expense variance. Excluding the impact of our share price volatility, Operating Expenses grew less than forecast at 14% Y/Y. Certain marketing expenses came in lower than expected due to campaign timing shifts, which were partially offset by higher than expected personnel expenses.</p><p>As a reminder, Social Charges are payroll taxes associated with employee salaries and benefits, including share-based compensation. We are subject to social taxes in several countries in which we operate, although Sweden accounts for the bulk of the social costs. We don’t forecast stock price changes in our guidance so upward or downward movements will impact our reported operating expenses.</p><p>At the end of Q1, our workforce consisted of 6,794 FTEs globally.</p><p><b>Product and Platform</b></p><p>On March 29, 2021, we acquired Betty Labs, the creators of Locker Room, a live audio app that’s changing the way insiders and fans talk about sports. This acquisition builds on our work to create “future formats of audio” and will accelerate Spotify’s entry into the live audio space. We plan to evolve and expand Locker Room into an enhanced live audio experience for a wider range of creators and fans. Through this new live experience, Spotify will offer a range of sports, music, and cultural programming, as well as a host of interactive features that will enable creators to connect with audiences in real time. We intend to give professional athletes, writers, musicians, songwriters, podcasters, and other global voices opportunities to host real-time discussions, debates, ask me anything (AMA) sessions, and more.</p><p>During the quarter, Spotify launched multiple upgrades, including a new Desktop App and Web Player redesign that makes the user experience and navigation easier than ever by combining a modern scalable web player together with a cohesive Spotify design. Additionally, our web platform includes 36 new languages (62 in total), which also will be rolled out to the mobile app, allowing Spotify to reach more audiences.</p><p>We also began testing Podcast Topic Search in the US, which enables listeners to search for podcasts by theme and topic in an effort to make discovering new content easier than ever. In February, we announced a new partnership between Anchor and WordPress to generate opportunities for content creators to evolve their work and reach new audiences through the power of audio. With this new tool, bloggers can publish their written content as a podcast with just a few clicks—and podcasters can create a website for their podcast just as easily. This offers a whole new group of creators—those who have historically focused on the written word—to access an entirely new audience via audio and share their voices on Spotify.</p><p>We remain focused on our ubiquity strategy and continue to expand support for Spotify across a variety of platforms and markets. With the expansion of our footprint into non-music content, we also have expanded support for video podcasts on AppleTV (including AirPlay2), LG, and Comcast. At the end of Q1, users in 10 additional markets, including Sweden, Australia, and Chile, can now ask Alexa to play podcasts from Spotify. Additionally, PlayStation's PS4 and PS5 consoles now support Spotify in 5 new markets, including Russia, Ukraine, Croatia, Slovenia, and Israel.</p><p>Post Q1, we announced a limited launch of Car Thing to eligible US users. Car Thing is a smart player that allows users to more seamlessly engage with Spotify music, news, entertainment, talk, and more in the car. We also launched a joint partnership with Facebook to create an integrated ecosystem with a miniplayer experience driven by social discovery that allows listeners to enjoy audio from Spotify directly within Facebook, without switching between apps. Additionally, we announced new ways for podcast creators to monetize their work with the rollout of Spotify’s Paid Subscriptions, the Spotify Open Access Platform, and utilization of the Spotify Audience Network for independent creators. These initiatives provide creators with different options to monetize their work, which allows them to continue to grow their audiences and create meaningful revenue streams.</p><p><b>Content</b></p><p>At the end of Q1, we had 2.6 million podcasts on the platform (up from more than 2.2 million podcasts by the end of Q4). The percentage of MAUs that engaged with podcast content on our platform was consistent with Q4 levels. From a consumption standpoint, we saw a strong increase in Q1 podcast consumption hours vs. Q4, with March activity driving an all-time high in terms of podcast share of overall platform consumption hours.</p><p>The Joe Rogan Experience performed above expectations with respect to new user additions and engagement. Notable Q1 content launches in the US included Renegades: Born in the USA (Higher Ground), Unlocking Us with Brene Brown (Parcast), Ringer Dish Feed - Taylor Swift (The Ringer), and Welcome To Your Fantasy (Gimlet). Renegades: Born in the USA, featuring former President Barack Obama and Bruce Springsteen, was the second largest podcast on Spotify in March (on an MAU basis) and has been our most international show to-date, with listenership extending across more than 150 countries. Internationally, we released 55 new O&amp;E podcasts. Select launches included a Japanese original Juju Talk, which was a major driver of user acquisition in the country, as well as our first daily new original in Germany, FOMO - was hab ich heute verpasst (what did I miss today?). Additionally, we launched our first slate of 7 Spotify Originals in the Philippines, with topics ranging from gaming to well-being, featuring personalities like Pia Wurtzbach and Donnalyn Bartolome.</p><p>On the music front, key Q1 releases included Olivia Rodrigo’s single,<i>drivers license</i>, which set the Spotify record for most streams in a day for a non-holiday song with over 15 million global streams on January 11. Additional releases include Arlo Parks’ album,<i>Collapsed in Sunbeams</i>, as well as Selena Gomez’s EP,<i>Revelación</i>. Daft Punk and Spotify partnered to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their highly acclaimed 2001 opus<i>Discovery</i>with an enhanced playlist experience after the announcement of the duo splitting up. The playlist included exclusive Canvas and Storylines for every track on the album, and since the start of the campaign, Daft Punk has seen a double digit increase in follows on-platform.</p><p><b>Two-Sided Marketplace</b></p><p>Sponsored Recommendations have shown strong growth and are becoming an essential part of new release marketing strategies for artists and labels. Q1 was the biggest quarter yet for Sponsored Recommendations, with an 11% increase over campaign volume from last quarter and a 10% increase in new customers vs. Q4. In an effort to expand and evolve Sponsored Recommendations, we expanded into Australia and New Zealand and have now made this tool available for singles. Additionally, we began the rollout of a self-serve buying experience for Sponsored Recommendations to select artist and label teams in the US.</p><p>At our Stream On event, we announced that we’re testing a new commercial tool called Discovery Mode with a small group of labels that enables artists to better reach new audiences on Spotify. To ensure the tool is accessible to artists at any stage of their careers, it will not require any upfront budget and instead, labels or rights holders agree to be paid a promotional recording royalty rate for streams in personalized listening sessions where we provided this service. Early results from the labels participating have been positive with participating labels seeing a 30% increase in streams for content opted in on average.</p><p>This quarter, we announced that all artists now have access to our popular feature, Canvas, through Spotify for Artists. The Canvas for Rodrigo’s<i>drivers license</i>was shared from Spotify to Instagram Stories over 243,000 times in its first week alone and was viewed more than 50 million times in its first three weeks. Artists at every stage of their career have used Canvas, and we now have over 1 million Canvases live on Spotify.</p><p>In Q1, we launched Noteable — our new global home for songwriters, producers and publishers which is a central space to access all the resources we’ve made available to the songwriting and publishing community, including Spotify Publishing Analytics, SoundBetter, Songwriter Pages and Song Credits, the Songwriting Hub, and more.</p><p><b>Free Cash Flow</b></p><p>Free Cash Flow was €41 million in Q1, a €61 million increase Y/Y as the prior year included an unfavorable impact to working capital due to a shift in timing for select licensor payments as well as an increase in net income adjusted for non-cash items. These increases were partially offset by higher cash outflow for PP&amp;E.</p><p>In addition to the positive Free Cash Flow dynamics, we maintain a strong liquidity position and are confident in the financial position of the business. During Q1, Spotify USA Inc. issued $1.5 billion in aggregate principal amount, zero coupon Exchangeable Notes due 2026 with a 70% conversion premium. At the end of Q1, we had €3.1 billion in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short term investments.</p><p><b>Q2 &amp; 2021 OUTLOOK</b></p><p>The following forward-looking statements reflect Spotify’s expectations as of April 28, 2021 and are subject to substantial uncertainty. The estimates below utilize the same methodology we’ve used in prior quarters with respect to our guidance and the potential range of outcomes. Given the extraordinary operating circumstances we currently face with respect to the impact of COVID-19, there is a greater likelihood of variances with respect to those ranges than typical quarters.</p><p>Q2 2021 Guidance:</p><ul><li><b>Total MAUs</b>: 366-373 million</li><li><b>Total Premium Subscribers:</b>162-166 million</li><li><b>Total Revenue:</b>€2.16-€2.36 billion</li><li><b>Gross Margin:</b>23.6-25.6%</li><li><b>Operating Profit/Loss:</b>€(134)-€(54) million</li></ul><p>Full Year 2021 Guidance: We have modestly lowered our Total MAUs range for the full year consistent with the lower than expected Q1 Total MAU growth.

We also launched a joint partnership with Facebook to create an integrated ecosystem with a miniplayer experience driven by social discovery that allows listeners to enjoy audio from Spotify directly within Facebook, without switching between apps. Additionally, we announced new ways for podcast creators to monetize their work with the rollout of Spotify’s Paid Subscriptions, the Spotify Open Access Platform, and utilization of the Spotify Audience Network for independent creators. These initiatives provide creators with different options to monetize their work, which allows them to continue to grow their audiences and create meaningful revenue streams.ContentAt the end of Q1, we had 2.6 million podcasts on the platform (up from more than 2.2 million podcasts by the end of Q4). The percentage of MAUs that engaged with podcast content on our platform was consistent with Q4 levels. From a consumption standpoint, we saw a strong increase in Q1 podcast consumption hours vs. Q4, with March activity driving an all-time high in terms of podcast share of overall platform consumption hours.The Joe Rogan Experience performed above expectations with respect to new user additions and engagement. Notable Q1 content launches in the US included Renegades: Born in the USA (Higher Ground), Unlocking Us with Brene Brown (Parcast), Ringer Dish Feed - Taylor Swift (The Ringer), and Welcome To Your Fantasy (Gimlet). Renegades: Born in the USA, featuring former President Barack Obama and Bruce Springsteen, was the second largest podcast on Spotify in March (on an MAU basis) and has been our most international show to-date, with listenership extending across more than 150 countries. Internationally, we released 55 new O&E podcasts. Select launches included a Japanese original Juju Talk, which was a major driver of user acquisition in the country, as well as our first daily new original in Germany, FOMO - was hab ich heute verpasst (what did I miss today?). Additionally, we launched our first slate of 7 Spotify Originals in the Philippines, with topics ranging from gaming to well-being, featuring personalities like Pia Wurtzbach and Donnalyn Bartolome.On the music front, key Q1 releases included Olivia Rodrigo’s single,drivers license, which set the Spotify record for most streams in a day for a non-holiday song with over 15 million global streams on January 11. Additional releases include Arlo Parks’ album,Collapsed in Sunbeams, as well as Selena Gomez’s EP,Revelación. Daft Punk and Spotify partnered to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their highly acclaimed 2001 opusDiscoverywith an enhanced playlist experience after the announcement of the duo splitting up. The playlist included exclusive Canvas and Storylines for every track on the album, and since the start of the campaign, Daft Punk has seen a double digit increase in follows on-platform.Two-Sided MarketplaceSponsored Recommendations have shown strong growth and are becoming an essential part of new release marketing strategies for artists and labels. Q1 was the biggest quarter yet for Sponsored Recommendations, with an 11% increase over campaign volume from last quarter and a 10% increase in new customers vs. Q4. In an effort to expand and evolve Sponsored Recommendations, we expanded into Australia and New Zealand and have now made this tool available for singles. Additionally, we began the rollout of a self-serve buying experience for Sponsored Recommendations to select artist and label teams in the US.At our Stream On event, we announced that we’re testing a new commercial tool called Discovery Mode with a small group of labels that enables artists to better reach new audiences on Spotify. To ensure the tool is accessible to artists at any stage of their careers, it will not require any upfront budget and instead, labels or rights holders agree to be paid a promotional recording royalty rate for streams in personalized listening sessions where we provided this service. Early results from the labels participating have been positive with participating labels seeing a 30% increase in streams for content opted in on average.This quarter, we announced that all artists now have access to our popular feature, Canvas, through Spotify for Artists. The Canvas for Rodrigo’sdrivers licensewas shared from Spotify to Instagram Stories over 243,000 times in its first week alone and was viewed more than 50 million times in its first three weeks. Artists at every stage of their career have used Canvas, and we now have over 1 million Canvases live on Spotify.In Q1, we launched Noteable — our new global home for songwriters, producers and publishers which is a central space to access all the resources we’ve made available to the songwriting and publishing community, including Spotify Publishing Analytics, SoundBetter, Songwriter Pages and Song Credits, the Songwriting Hub, and more.Free Cash FlowFree Cash Flow was €41 million in Q1, a €61 million increase Y/Y as the prior year included an unfavorable impact to working capital due to a shift in timing for select licensor payments as well as an increase in net income adjusted for non-cash items. These increases were partially offset by higher cash outflow for PP&E.In addition to the positive Free Cash Flow dynamics, we maintain a strong liquidity position and are confident in the financial position of the business. During Q1, Spotify USA Inc. issued $1.5 billion in aggregate principal amount, zero coupon Exchangeable Notes due 2026 with a 70% conversion premium. At the end of Q1, we had €3.1 billion in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short term investments.Q2 & 2021 OUTLOOKThe following forward-looking statements reflect Spotify’s expectations as of April 28, 2021 and are subject to substantial uncertainty. The estimates below utilize the same methodology we’ve used in prior quarters with respect to our guidance and the potential range of outcomes. Given the extraordinary operating circumstances we currently face with respect to the impact of COVID-19, there is a greater likelihood of variances with respect to those ranges than typical quarters.Q2 2021 Guidance:Total MAUs: 366-373 millionTotal Premium Subscribers:162-166 millionTotal Revenue:€2.16-€2.36 billionGross Margin:23.6-25.6%Operating Profit/Loss:€(134)-€(54) millionFull Year 2021 Guidance: We have modestly lowered our Total MAUs range for the full year consistent with the lower than expected Q1 Total MAU growth. Additionally, we have increased our outlook for Total Revenue and Gross Margin, as well as decreased the Operating Loss expectations. Our Premium Subscriber outlook remains unchanged.Total MAUs: 402-422 millionTotal Premium Subscribers:172-184 millionTotal Revenue:€9.11-€9.51 billionGross Margin:24.0-26.0%Operating Profit/Loss:€(250)-€(150) million","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":114,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":810069554,"gmtCreate":1629935320878,"gmtModify":1676530174848,"author":{"id":"3582186770863797","authorId":"3582186770863797","name":"Pschoa","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6048d8c3ccf7b9e4abd018d7a405e329","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hiij","listText":"Hiij","text":"Hiij","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/810069554","repostId":"2162542050","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2162542050","pubTimestamp":1629904320,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2162542050?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-08-25 23:12","market":"fut","language":"en","title":"Oil prices move up with U.S. crude supplies down a third straight week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2162542050","media":"MarketWatch","summary":"Oil futures traded higher Wednesday, finding some support from a third straight drop in U.S. crude i","content":"<p>Oil futures traded higher Wednesday, finding some support from a third straight drop in U.S. crude inventories, but the spread of COVID-19 cases globally continued to threaten energy demand, putting a lid on any price gains.</p>\n<p>\"A tick higher in refinery runs and a tick lower in imports has yielded a third consecutive draw to crude inventories -- dropping them to their lowest since late January 2020,\" said Matthew Smith, director of commodity research at ClipperData, in emailed commentary.</p>\n<p>On Wednesday, the Energy Information Administration said U.S. crude inventories fell by 3 million barrels for the week ended Aug. 20.</p>\n<p>On average, analysts polled by S&amp;P Global Platts forecast a decline of 3.2 million barrels for crude stocks, while the American Petroleum Institute on Tuesday reported a 1.6 million-barrel decrease.</p>\n<p>West Texas Intermediate crude for October delivery edged up by 8 cents, or 0.1%, to $67.62 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

(NYSE:SPOT) today reported financial results for the first fiscal quarter of 2021 ending March 31, 2021.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/51c69e556f6ac9b18cc7c323ee834c8c\" tg-width=\"701\" tg-height=\"380\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Dear Shareholders,</p><p>We are pleased with our performance in Q1. The business delivered subscriber growth and Gross Margin at the top end of our guidance range, a continued improvement in ARPU, and operating income better than plan. We saw greater MAU variability this quarter, but results were within our range of expectations given the outperformance in Q4 and the continued impact from COVID-19. Revenue grew by 16% (22% excluding the impact of FX) and was at the upper end of our guidance range. Other highlights from the quarter include a successful launch in 86 new markets, a $1.5 billion Exchangeable Notes offering, and the acquisition of Betty Labs (Locker Room).</p><p><b>MONTHLY ACTIVE USERS (“MAUs”)</b></p><p>Total MAUs grew 24% Y/Y to 356 million in the quarter, finishing within our guidance range but modestly below our internal expectations. In Q1, we added 11 million MAUs, which drove healthy double digit Y/Y growth across all regions. We saw meaningful contributions from markets such as the US, Mexico, Russia, and India. However, growth was lower than plan in Latin America and Europe. In aggregate, the performance of our newly launched markets was in line with our expectations.</p><p>Global consumption hours continued to grow meaningfully in Q1 on a Y/Y basis. Per user consumption grew in developed regions such as North America and Europe, while developing regions showed signs of improvement but remained below pre-COVID levels.</p><p><b>PREMIUM SUBSCRIBERS</b></p><p>Our Premium Subscribers grew 21% Y/Y to 158 million in the quarter, hitting the top end of our guidance range. In Q1, we added nearly 4 million subscribers, which drove healthy double digit Y/Y growth across all regions and was strong relative to a tough promotional comparison from Q1 last year. The subscriber outperformance was fairly broad based and led by North America, where we saw stronger than expected performance of Trials &amp; Campaigns and faster than anticipated growth in our Standard product. In Latin America, we saw outperformance driven by the continued success of our Family Plan product. We are pleased with the new market contributions, with South Korea being the biggest driver.</p><p>Our average monthly Premium churn rate for the quarter was down modestly Y/Y and flat Q/Q. The Y/Y improvement continues to be driven by the adoption of our higher retention offerings like Family Plan in addition to growth in high retention regions.</p><p><b>FINANCIAL METRICS</b></p><p><b>Revenue</b></p><p>Total revenue of €2,147 million grew 16% Y/Y in Q1 (22% Y/Y on a constant currency basis). Reported revenue was toward the top end of our guidance range due to subscriber outperformance, slightly lower headwinds from FX (600 bps impact vs. 770 bps incorporated into our plan), and advertising strength. The FX impact was primarily driven by the Y/Y US dollar weakness vs. the Euro. Premium revenue grew 14% Y/Y to €1,931 million (or 19% Y/Y in constant currency terms) while Ad-Supported revenue was particularly strong, growing 46% Y/Y to €216 million (or 57% Y/Y in constant currency terms).</p><p>Within Premium, average revenue per user (“ARPU”) of €4.12 in Q1 was down 7% Y/Y (but down only 1% Y/Y in constant currency terms vs. down 3% Y/Y in Q4). Excluding FX, product mix accounted for the majority of the ARPU decline. To date, we have raised prices across a variety of our Premium offerings in over 30 markets and early results have shown no material impacts to gross intake or cancellation rates. On April 26th, we announced price increases for various subscription products in 12 additional markets, including the United States (Family Plan), United Kingdom (Student, Family, and Duo Plans), and Brazil (Full Portfolio).</p><p>Ad-Supported revenue outperformed our forecast with all regions growing double digits Y/Y excluding the impact of FX. The strength in Ad-Supported revenue was led by our Podcast and Programmatic channels, with the former benefiting from the acquisitions of Megaphone and The Ringer along with our exclusive licensing of the Joe Rogan Experience. Spotify Ad Studio grew substantially Y/Y, and we continued to expand the self-serve offering to more markets (France, Germany, and Italy) and began beta testing podcast inventory ad buying on Spotify Ad Studio in the US. Additionally, in April, we expanded Streaming Ad Insertion (“SAI”) from the US, Canada, United Kingdom, and Germany to also include Australia and Sweden.</p><p>In February, we announced the Spotify Audience Network, a first-of-its-kind audio advertising marketplace which connects advertisers to listeners across Spotify Owned &amp; Exclusive (“O&amp;E”) podcasts, podcasts from enterprise publishers via Megaphone, podcasts from emerging creators via Anchor, and ad-supported music. The Spotify Audience Network bundles multiple shows for advertisers to buy specific audiences using our proprietary SAI technology. We believe this shift will provide advertisers much greater reach and efficiency while creators gain a much greater monetization opportunity.</p><p><b>Gross Margin</b></p><p>Gross Margin finished at 25.5% in Q1, at the top end of our guidance range and flat Y/Y. While we continue to see strong revenue growth in podcast and non-music revenue, our non-music costs continue to grow at a slightly faster rate which is a modest drag on our Gross Margin. We did see improvements in Other Cost of Revenue (e.g. payment fees, streaming delivery costs) which offset the content spend increase.</p><p>Premium Gross Margin was 27.9% in Q1, down 42 bps Y/Y and Ad-Supported Gross Margin was 4.4% in Q1, up 1,100 bps Y/Y. As a reminder, all content costs related to podcast investment are included in the Ad-Supported business for the current and historical periods.</p><p><b>Operating Expenses / Income (Loss)</b></p><p>Operating Expenses totaled €534 million in Q1, an increase of 9% Y/Y and below our plan. Social Charges were approximately €35 million lower than forecast due to a decrease in our share price during the quarter, accounting for the majority of our Operating Expense variance. Excluding the impact of our share price volatility, Operating Expenses grew less than forecast at 14% Y/Y. Certain marketing expenses came in lower than expected due to campaign timing shifts, which were partially offset by higher than expected personnel expenses.</p><p>As a reminder, Social Charges are payroll taxes associated with employee salaries and benefits, including share-based compensation. We are subject to social taxes in several countries in which we operate, although Sweden accounts for the bulk of the social costs. We don’t forecast stock price changes in our guidance so upward or downward movements will impact our reported operating expenses.</p><p>At the end of Q1, our workforce consisted of 6,794 FTEs globally.</p><p><b>Product and Platform</b></p><p>On March 29, 2021, we acquired Betty Labs, the creators of Locker Room, a live audio app that’s changing the way insiders and fans talk about sports. This acquisition builds on our work to create “future formats of audio” and will accelerate Spotify’s entry into the live audio space. We plan to evolve and expand Locker Room into an enhanced live audio experience for a wider range of creators and fans. Through this new live experience, Spotify will offer a range of sports, music, and cultural programming, as well as a host of interactive features that will enable creators to connect with audiences in real time. We intend to give professional athletes, writers, musicians, songwriters, podcasters, and other global voices opportunities to host real-time discussions, debates, ask me anything (AMA) sessions, and more.</p><p>During the quarter, Spotify launched multiple upgrades, including a new Desktop App and Web Player redesign that makes the user experience and navigation easier than ever by combining a modern scalable web player together with a cohesive Spotify design. Additionally, our web platform includes 36 new languages (62 in total), which also will be rolled out to the mobile app, allowing Spotify to reach more audiences.</p><p>We also began testing Podcast Topic Search in the US, which enables listeners to search for podcasts by theme and topic in an effort to make discovering new content easier than ever. In February, we announced a new partnership between Anchor and WordPress to generate opportunities for content creators to evolve their work and reach new audiences through the power of audio. With this new tool, bloggers can publish their written content as a podcast with just a few clicks—and podcasters can create a website for their podcast just as easily. This offers a whole new group of creators—those who have historically focused on the written word—to access an entirely new audience via audio and share their voices on Spotify.</p><p>We remain focused on our ubiquity strategy and continue to expand support for Spotify across a variety of platforms and markets. With the expansion of our footprint into non-music content, we also have expanded support for video podcasts on AppleTV (including AirPlay2), LG, and Comcast. At the end of Q1, users in 10 additional markets, including Sweden, Australia, and Chile, can now ask Alexa to play podcasts from Spotify. Additionally, PlayStation's PS4 and PS5 consoles now support Spotify in 5 new markets, including Russia, Ukraine, Croatia, Slovenia, and Israel.</p><p>Post Q1, we announced a limited launch of Car Thing to eligible US users. Car Thing is a smart player that allows users to more seamlessly engage with Spotify music, news, entertainment, talk, and more in the car. We also launched a joint partnership with Facebook to create an integrated ecosystem with a miniplayer experience driven by social discovery that allows listeners to enjoy audio from Spotify directly within Facebook, without switching between apps. Additionally, we announced new ways for podcast creators to monetize their work with the rollout of Spotify’s Paid Subscriptions, the Spotify Open Access Platform, and utilization of the Spotify Audience Network for independent creators. These initiatives provide creators with different options to monetize their work, which allows them to continue to grow their audiences and create meaningful revenue streams.</p><p><b>Content</b></p><p>At the end of Q1, we had 2.6 million podcasts on the platform (up from more than 2.2 million podcasts by the end of Q4). The percentage of MAUs that engaged with podcast content on our platform was consistent with Q4 levels. From a consumption standpoint, we saw a strong increase in Q1 podcast consumption hours vs. Q4, with March activity driving an all-time high in terms of podcast share of overall platform consumption hours.</p><p>The Joe Rogan Experience performed above expectations with respect to new user additions and engagement. Notable Q1 content launches in the US included Renegades: Born in the USA (Higher Ground), Unlocking Us with Brene Brown (Parcast), Ringer Dish Feed - Taylor Swift (The Ringer), and Welcome To Your Fantasy (Gimlet). Renegades: Born in the USA, featuring former President Barack Obama and Bruce Springsteen, was the second largest podcast on Spotify in March (on an MAU basis) and has been our most international show to-date, with listenership extending across more than 150 countries. Internationally, we released 55 new O&amp;E podcasts. Select launches included a Japanese original Juju Talk, which was a major driver of user acquisition in the country, as well as our first daily new original in Germany, FOMO - was hab ich heute verpasst (what did I miss today?). Additionally, we launched our first slate of 7 Spotify Originals in the Philippines, with topics ranging from gaming to well-being, featuring personalities like Pia Wurtzbach and Donnalyn Bartolome.</p><p>On the music front, key Q1 releases included Olivia Rodrigo’s single,<i>drivers license</i>, which set the Spotify record for most streams in a day for a non-holiday song with over 15 million global streams on January 11. Additional releases include Arlo Parks’ album,<i>Collapsed in Sunbeams</i>, as well as Selena Gomez’s EP,<i>Revelación</i>. Daft Punk and Spotify partnered to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their highly acclaimed 2001 opus<i>Discovery</i>with an enhanced playlist experience after the announcement of the duo splitting up. The playlist included exclusive Canvas and Storylines for every track on the album, and since the start of the campaign, Daft Punk has seen a double digit increase in follows on-platform.</p><p><b>Two-Sided Marketplace</b></p><p>Sponsored Recommendations have shown strong growth and are becoming an essential part of new release marketing strategies for artists and labels. Q1 was the biggest quarter yet for Sponsored Recommendations, with an 11% increase over campaign volume from last quarter and a 10% increase in new customers vs. Q4. In an effort to expand and evolve Sponsored Recommendations, we expanded into Australia and New Zealand and have now made this tool available for singles. Additionally, we began the rollout of a self-serve buying experience for Sponsored Recommendations to select artist and label teams in the US.</p><p>At our Stream On event, we announced that we’re testing a new commercial tool called Discovery Mode with a small group of labels that enables artists to better reach new audiences on Spotify. To ensure the tool is accessible to artists at any stage of their careers, it will not require any upfront budget and instead, labels or rights holders agree to be paid a promotional recording royalty rate for streams in personalized listening sessions where we provided this service. Early results from the labels participating have been positive with participating labels seeing a 30% increase in streams for content opted in on average.</p><p>This quarter, we announced that all artists now have access to our popular feature, Canvas, through Spotify for Artists. The Canvas for Rodrigo’s<i>drivers license</i>was shared from Spotify to Instagram Stories over 243,000 times in its first week alone and was viewed more than 50 million times in its first three weeks. Artists at every stage of their career have used Canvas, and we now have over 1 million Canvases live on Spotify.</p><p>In Q1, we launched Noteable — our new global home for songwriters, producers and publishers which is a central space to access all the resources we’ve made available to the songwriting and publishing community, including Spotify Publishing Analytics, SoundBetter, Songwriter Pages and Song Credits, the Songwriting Hub, and more.</p><p><b>Free Cash Flow</b></p><p>Free Cash Flow was €41 million in Q1, a €61 million increase Y/Y as the prior year included an unfavorable impact to working capital due to a shift in timing for select licensor payments as well as an increase in net income adjusted for non-cash items. These increases were partially offset by higher cash outflow for PP&amp;E.</p><p>In addition to the positive Free Cash Flow dynamics, we maintain a strong liquidity position and are confident in the financial position of the business. During Q1, Spotify USA Inc. issued $1.5 billion in aggregate principal amount, zero coupon Exchangeable Notes due 2026 with a 70% conversion premium. At the end of Q1, we had €3.1 billion in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short term investments.</p><p><b>Q2 &amp; 2021 OUTLOOK</b></p><p>The following forward-looking statements reflect Spotify’s expectations as of April 28, 2021 and are subject to substantial uncertainty. The estimates below utilize the same methodology we’ve used in prior quarters with respect to our guidance and the potential range of outcomes. Given the extraordinary operating circumstances we currently face with respect to the impact of COVID-19, there is a greater likelihood of variances with respect to those ranges than typical quarters.</p><p>Q2 2021 Guidance:</p><ul><li><b>Total MAUs</b>: 366-373 million</li><li><b>Total Premium Subscribers:</b>162-166 million</li><li><b>Total Revenue:</b>€2.16-€2.36 billion</li><li><b>Gross Margin:</b>23.6-25.6%</li><li><b>Operating Profit/Loss:</b>€(134)-€(54) million</li></ul><p>Full Year 2021 Guidance: We have modestly lowered our Total MAUs range for the full year consistent with the lower than expected Q1 Total MAU growth.

We believe this shift will provide advertisers much greater reach and efficiency while creators gain a much greater monetization opportunity.</p><p><b>Gross Margin</b></p><p>Gross Margin finished at 25.5% in Q1, at the top end of our guidance range and flat Y/Y. While we continue to see strong revenue growth in podcast and non-music revenue, our non-music costs continue to grow at a slightly faster rate which is a modest drag on our Gross Margin. We did see improvements in Other Cost of Revenue (e.g. payment fees, streaming delivery costs) which offset the content spend increase.</p><p>Premium Gross Margin was 27.9% in Q1, down 42 bps Y/Y and Ad-Supported Gross Margin was 4.4% in Q1, up 1,100 bps Y/Y. As a reminder, all content costs related to podcast investment are included in the Ad-Supported business for the current and historical periods.</p><p><b>Operating Expenses / Income (Loss)</b></p><p>Operating Expenses totaled €534 million in Q1, an increase of 9% Y/Y and below our plan. Social Charges were approximately €35 million lower than forecast due to a decrease in our share price during the quarter, accounting for the majority of our Operating Expense variance. Excluding the impact of our share price volatility, Operating Expenses grew less than forecast at 14% Y/Y. Certain marketing expenses came in lower than expected due to campaign timing shifts, which were partially offset by higher than expected personnel expenses.</p><p>As a reminder, Social Charges are payroll taxes associated with employee salaries and benefits, including share-based compensation. We are subject to social taxes in several countries in which we operate, although Sweden accounts for the bulk of the social costs. We don’t forecast stock price changes in our guidance so upward or downward movements will impact our reported operating expenses.</p><p>At the end of Q1, our workforce consisted of 6,794 FTEs globally.</p><p><b>Product and Platform</b></p><p>On March 29, 2021, we acquired Betty Labs, the creators of Locker Room, a live audio app that’s changing the way insiders and fans talk about sports. This acquisition builds on our work to create “future formats of audio” and will accelerate Spotify’s entry into the live audio space. We plan to evolve and expand Locker Room into an enhanced live audio experience for a wider range of creators and fans. Through this new live experience, Spotify will offer a range of sports, music, and cultural programming, as well as a host of interactive features that will enable creators to connect with audiences in real time. We intend to give professional athletes, writers, musicians, songwriters, podcasters, and other global voices opportunities to host real-time discussions, debates, ask me anything (AMA) sessions, and more.</p><p>During the quarter, Spotify launched multiple upgrades, including a new Desktop App and Web Player redesign that makes the user experience and navigation easier than ever by combining a modern scalable web player together with a cohesive Spotify design. Additionally, our web platform includes 36 new languages (62 in total), which also will be rolled out to the mobile app, allowing Spotify to reach more audiences.</p><p>We also began testing Podcast Topic Search in the US, which enables listeners to search for podcasts by theme and topic in an effort to make discovering new content easier than ever. In February, we announced a new partnership between Anchor and WordPress to generate opportunities for content creators to evolve their work and reach new audiences through the power of audio. With this new tool, bloggers can publish their written content as a podcast with just a few clicks—and podcasters can create a website for their podcast just as easily. This offers a whole new group of creators—those who have historically focused on the written word—to access an entirely new audience via audio and share their voices on Spotify.</p><p>We remain focused on our ubiquity strategy and continue to expand support for Spotify across a variety of platforms and markets. With the expansion of our footprint into non-music content, we also have expanded support for video podcasts on AppleTV (including AirPlay2), LG, and Comcast. At the end of Q1, users in 10 additional markets, including Sweden, Australia, and Chile, can now ask Alexa to play podcasts from Spotify. Additionally, PlayStation's PS4 and PS5 consoles now support Spotify in 5 new markets, including Russia, Ukraine, Croatia, Slovenia, and Israel.</p><p>Post Q1, we announced a limited launch of Car Thing to eligible US users. Car Thing is a smart player that allows users to more seamlessly engage with Spotify music, news, entertainment, talk, and more in the car. We also launched a joint partnership with Facebook to create an integrated ecosystem with a miniplayer experience driven by social discovery that allows listeners to enjoy audio from Spotify directly within Facebook, without switching between apps. Additionally, we announced new ways for podcast creators to monetize their work with the rollout of Spotify’s Paid Subscriptions, the Spotify Open Access Platform, and utilization of the Spotify Audience Network for independent creators. These initiatives provide creators with different options to monetize their work, which allows them to continue to grow their audiences and create meaningful revenue streams.</p><p><b>Content</b></p><p>At the end of Q1, we had 2.6 million podcasts on the platform (up from more than 2.2 million podcasts by the end of Q4). The percentage of MAUs that engaged with podcast content on our platform was consistent with Q4 levels. From a consumption standpoint, we saw a strong increase in Q1 podcast consumption hours vs. Q4, with March activity driving an all-time high in terms of podcast share of overall platform consumption hours.</p><p>The Joe Rogan Experience performed above expectations with respect to new user additions and engagement. Notable Q1 content launches in the US included Renegades: Born in the USA (Higher Ground), Unlocking Us with Brene Brown (Parcast), Ringer Dish Feed - Taylor Swift (The Ringer), and Welcome To Your Fantasy (Gimlet). Renegades: Born in the USA, featuring former President Barack Obama and Bruce Springsteen, was the second largest podcast on Spotify in March (on an MAU basis) and has been our most international show to-date, with listenership extending across more than 150 countries. Internationally, we released 55 new O&amp;E podcasts. Select launches included a Japanese original Juju Talk, which was a major driver of user acquisition in the country, as well as our first daily new original in Germany, FOMO - was hab ich heute verpasst (what did I miss today?). Additionally, we launched our first slate of 7 Spotify Originals in the Philippines, with topics ranging from gaming to well-being, featuring personalities like Pia Wurtzbach and Donnalyn Bartolome.</p><p>On the music front, key Q1 releases included Olivia Rodrigo’s single,<i>drivers license</i>, which set the Spotify record for most streams in a day for a non-holiday song with over 15 million global streams on January 11. Additional releases include Arlo Parks’ album,<i>Collapsed in Sunbeams</i>, as well as Selena Gomez’s EP,<i>Revelación</i>. Daft Punk and Spotify partnered to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their highly acclaimed 2001 opus<i>Discovery</i>with an enhanced playlist experience after the announcement of the duo splitting up. The playlist included exclusive Canvas and Storylines for every track on the album, and since the start of the campaign, Daft Punk has seen a double digit increase in follows on-platform.</p><p><b>Two-Sided Marketplace</b></p><p>Sponsored Recommendations have shown strong growth and are becoming an essential part of new release marketing strategies for artists and labels. Q1 was the biggest quarter yet for Sponsored Recommendations, with an 11% increase over campaign volume from last quarter and a 10% increase in new customers vs. Q4. In an effort to expand and evolve Sponsored Recommendations, we expanded into Australia and New Zealand and have now made this tool available for singles. Additionally, we began the rollout of a self-serve buying experience for Sponsored Recommendations to select artist and label teams in the US.</p><p>At our Stream On event, we announced that we’re testing a new commercial tool called Discovery Mode with a small group of labels that enables artists to better reach new audiences on Spotify. To ensure the tool is accessible to artists at any stage of their careers, it will not require any upfront budget and instead, labels or rights holders agree to be paid a promotional recording royalty rate for streams in personalized listening sessions where we provided this service. Early results from the labels participating have been positive with participating labels seeing a 30% increase in streams for content opted in on average.</p><p>This quarter, we announced that all artists now have access to our popular feature, Canvas, through Spotify for Artists. The Canvas for Rodrigo’s<i>drivers license</i>was shared from Spotify to Instagram Stories over 243,000 times in its first week alone and was viewed more than 50 million times in its first three weeks. Artists at every stage of their career have used Canvas, and we now have over 1 million Canvases live on Spotify.</p><p>In Q1, we launched Noteable — our new global home for songwriters, producers and publishers which is a central space to access all the resources we’ve made available to the songwriting and publishing community, including Spotify Publishing Analytics, SoundBetter, Songwriter Pages and Song Credits, the Songwriting Hub, and more.</p><p><b>Free Cash Flow</b></p><p>Free Cash Flow was €41 million in Q1, a €61 million increase Y/Y as the prior year included an unfavorable impact to working capital due to a shift in timing for select licensor payments as well as an increase in net income adjusted for non-cash items. These increases were partially offset by higher cash outflow for PP&amp;E.</p><p>In addition to the positive Free Cash Flow dynamics, we maintain a strong liquidity position and are confident in the financial position of the business. During Q1, Spotify USA Inc. issued $1.5 billion in aggregate principal amount, zero coupon Exchangeable Notes due 2026 with a 70% conversion premium. At the end of Q1, we had €3.1 billion in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short term investments.</p><p><b>Q2 &amp; 2021 OUTLOOK</b></p><p>The following forward-looking statements reflect Spotify’s expectations as of April 28, 2021 and are subject to substantial uncertainty.

(NYSE:SPOT) today reported financial results for the first fiscal quarter of 2021 ending March 31, 2021.Dear Shareholders,We are pleased with our performance in Q1. The business delivered subscriber growth and Gross Margin at the top end of our guidance range, a continued improvement in ARPU, and operating income better than plan. We saw greater MAU variability this quarter, but results were within our range of expectations given the outperformance in Q4 and the continued impact from COVID-19. Revenue grew by 16% (22% excluding the impact of FX) and was at the upper end of our guidance range. Other highlights from the quarter include a successful launch in 86 new markets, a $1.5 billion Exchangeable Notes offering, and the acquisition of Betty Labs (Locker Room).MONTHLY ACTIVE USERS (“MAUs”)Total MAUs grew 24% Y/Y to 356 million in the quarter, finishing within our guidance range but modestly below our internal expectations. In Q1, we added 11 million MAUs, which drove healthy double digit Y/Y growth across all regions. We saw meaningful contributions from markets such as the US, Mexico, Russia, and India. However, growth was lower than plan in Latin America and Europe. In aggregate, the performance of our newly launched markets was in line with our expectations.Global consumption hours continued to grow meaningfully in Q1 on a Y/Y basis. Per user consumption grew in developed regions such as North America and Europe, while developing regions showed signs of improvement but remained below pre-COVID levels.PREMIUM SUBSCRIBERSOur Premium Subscribers grew 21% Y/Y to 158 million in the quarter, hitting the top end of our guidance range. In Q1, we added nearly 4 million subscribers, which drove healthy double digit Y/Y growth across all regions and was strong relative to a tough promotional comparison from Q1 last year. The subscriber outperformance was fairly broad based and led by North America, where we saw stronger than expected performance of Trials & Campaigns and faster than anticipated growth in our Standard product. In Latin America, we saw outperformance driven by the continued success of our Family Plan product. We are pleased with the new market contributions, with South Korea being the biggest driver.Our average monthly Premium churn rate for the quarter was down modestly Y/Y and flat Q/Q. The Y/Y improvement continues to be driven by the adoption of our higher retention offerings like Family Plan in addition to growth in high retention regions.FINANCIAL METRICSRevenueTotal revenue of €2,147 million grew 16% Y/Y in Q1 (22% Y/Y on a constant currency basis). Reported revenue was toward the top end of our guidance range due to subscriber outperformance, slightly lower headwinds from FX (600 bps impact vs. 770 bps incorporated into our plan), and advertising strength. The FX impact was primarily driven by the Y/Y US dollar weakness vs. the Euro. Premium revenue grew 14% Y/Y to €1,931 million (or 19% Y/Y in constant currency terms) while Ad-Supported revenue was particularly strong, growing 46% Y/Y to €216 million (or 57% Y/Y in constant currency terms).Within Premium, average revenue per user (“ARPU”) of €4.12 in Q1 was down 7% Y/Y (but down only 1% Y/Y in constant currency terms vs. down 3% Y/Y in Q4). Excluding FX, product mix accounted for the majority of the ARPU decline. To date, we have raised prices across a variety of our Premium offerings in over 30 markets and early results have shown no material impacts to gross intake or cancellation rates. On April 26th, we announced price increases for various subscription products in 12 additional markets, including the United States (Family Plan), United Kingdom (Student, Family, and Duo Plans), and Brazil (Full Portfolio).Ad-Supported revenue outperformed our forecast with all regions growing double digits Y/Y excluding the impact of FX. The strength in Ad-Supported revenue was led by our Podcast and Programmatic channels, with the former benefiting from the acquisitions of Megaphone and The Ringer along with our exclusive licensing of the Joe Rogan Experience. Spotify Ad Studio grew substantially Y/Y, and we continued to expand the self-serve offering to more markets (France, Germany, and Italy) and began beta testing podcast inventory ad buying on Spotify Ad Studio in the US. Additionally, in April, we expanded Streaming Ad Insertion (“SAI”) from the US, Canada, United Kingdom, and Germany to also include Australia and Sweden.In February, we announced the Spotify Audience Network, a first-of-its-kind audio advertising marketplace which connects advertisers to listeners across Spotify Owned & Exclusive (“O&E”) podcasts, podcasts from enterprise publishers via Megaphone, podcasts from emerging creators via Anchor, and ad-supported music.

Jewelry sales jumped 32% from 2020 and sales of electronics were up 16.2%, the report said.\nThe SpendingPulse report tracks spending by combining sales activity in Mastercard’s payments network with estimates of cash and other payment forms but excludes automobile sales.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":604,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":150585620,"gmtCreate":1624921853860,"gmtModify":1703847780125,"author":{"id":"3582186770863797","authorId":"3582186770863797","name":"Pschoa","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6048d8c3ccf7b9e4abd018d7a405e329","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hui","listText":"Hui","text":"Hui","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/150585620","repostId":"1143737614","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1143737614","pubTimestamp":1624894513,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1143737614?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-28 23:35","market":"fut","language":"en","title":"The S&P 500-to-Gold Ratio Is Nearing Its Highest Level in Over 15 Years","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1143737614","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"The ratio of the S&P 500 to the price of gold is nearing its 2018 peak.
