DoubleDown Interactive has published its financial results for Q4 and full 2023 fiscal year. The company posted significant increases in its Q4 and full-year net income.

During the fourth quarter, company revenue rose to $83.1m, resulting in a nearly $7m increase year-over-year.

The company reported a decrease in operating expenses in Q4 when compared to expenses a year ago. Total operating expenses during the quarter reached $47.5m, down from $321.4m in Q4 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter was $36.2m, up nearly $12m year-over-year. The company’s EBITDA margin grew by more than 10 percentage points during the past year to reach 43.5%.

The company reduced its annual operating expenses in 2023. Total expenses totaled $190.7m for the fiscal year, nearly a third of what was spent in 2022.

However, revenue for the full year reflected a significant decrease when compared to 2022. The company reported $308.9m in 2023 revenue, down nearly $13m from last year.

“As a result, cash flows from operating activities were approximately $30m in the fourth quarter.”
