Rhea-AI Filing Summary
DoubleDown Interactive reported record revenue but lower profit for the fourth quarter and full year 2025. Fourth quarter revenue rose to $95.8 million from $82.0 million, driven by social casino titles, first full-quarter contributions from WHOW Games, and 78.2% year-over-year growth at SuprNation to $16.1 million.
However, profit for the interim period (excluding non-controlling interest) fell to $24.1 million from $35.7 million, mainly due to a non-cash impairment of SuprNation goodwill, while Adjusted EBITDA improved to $40.6 million. For 2025, revenue increased to $359.9 million from $341.3 million, but profit declined to $102.5 million from $124.1 million on higher operating expenses and the goodwill impairment.
Full-year Adjusted EBITDA was stable at $142.3 million, and net cash from operating activities was $136.8 million. The company emphasized strong direct-to-consumer growth, with social casino DTC revenue reaching $62.1 million and SuprNation revenue rising 84.5% to $61.0 million. Year-end cash and cash equivalents were $388.9 million with short-term investments of $101.1 million, supporting what management described as a solid balance sheet and flexibility for organic growth and M&A.
Positive
- None.
Negative
- Profit and margin decline on goodwill impairment and higher costs: 2025 profit attributable to DoubleDown fell to $102.5 million from $124.1 million, and profit margin dropped from 36.5% to 28.5%, primarily due to a non-cash impairment of SuprNation goodwill and increased operating expenses.
Insights
Revenue and cash stay strong, but profit drops on goodwill impairment.
DoubleDown Interactive delivered record top-line results in 2025, with revenue rising to $359.9 million from $341.3 million. Growth came from SuprNation, where revenue jumped 84.5% to $61.0 million, and from WHOW Games plus expanding direct-to-consumer channels.
Despite this, profit attributable to the company fell to $102.5 million from $124.1 million, mainly due to a non-cash $8.0 million goodwill impairment at SuprNation and higher operating expenses including WHOW. Profit margin compressed from 36.5% to 28.5%, even as full-year Adjusted EBITDA was essentially flat at $142.3 million.
Cash generation and the balance sheet remain notable strengths. Net cash from operating activities was $136.8 million, and year-end cash and cash equivalents of $388.9 million, plus $101.1 million of short-term investments, underpin management’s comments about pursuing additional transactions to diversify products and geography. Actual impact will depend on how effectively they deploy this capital and continue scaling DTC and iGaming operations.

DoubleDown Interactive Reports Record Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Financial Results
SEOUL, KOREA – February 11, 2026 — DoubleDown Interactive Co., Ltd. (NASDAQ: DDI) (“DoubleDown” or the “Company”), a leading developer and publisher of digital games on mobile and web-based platforms, today announced unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025.
Fourth Quarter 2025 vs. Fourth Quarter 2024 Summary:
•Revenue was $95.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $82.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.
◦Revenue from the Company’s social casino/free-to-play games was $79.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, a 9.3% increase from the fourth quarter of 2024. The 2025 fourth quarter revenue includes the first full-quarter of revenue from WHOW Games GmbH (“WHOW Games”) which was acquired by the Company on July 14, 2025.
◦Direct-to-Consumer1 (“DTC”) revenue rose to $26.0 million, which represented 33% of total social casino game revenue in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $9.2 million representing 13% of total social casino game revenue in the fourth quarter of 2024.
◦Revenue from SuprNation, the Company’s iGaming subsidiary, increased 78.2% in the fourth quarter year over year to $16.1 million, primarily as a result of the Company’s continuing focus on new player acquisition.
•Operating expenses were $65.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $47.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily due to impairment loss recognized for SuprNation’s goodwill and the inclusion of WHOW Games expenses.
•Profit for the interim period (excluding non-controlling interest) was $24.1 million, or earnings per fully diluted common share of $9.72 ($0.49 per American Depositary Share (“ADS”)), in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to profit for the interim period (excluding non-controlling interest) of $35.7 million, or earnings per fully diluted common share of $14.40 ($0.72 per ADS), in the fourth quarter of 2024. The decrease primarily reflects a non-cash impairment loss of SuprNation goodwill. Each ADS represents 0.05 share of a common share.
•Adjusted EBITDA was $40.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $35.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 42.4% in the fourth quarter of 2025 and 42.9% in the fourth quarter of 2024.
•Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2025, social casino KPIs are inclusive of those from WHOW Games.
◦Payer Conversion for the Company’s social casino/free-to-play games increased to 9.6% in the fourth quarter of 2025 from 6.9% in the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily as a result of the inclusion of WHOW Games, which has a higher Payer Conversion rate.
◦Average Revenue Per Daily Active User (“ARPDAU”) for the Company’s social casino/free-to-play games increased to $1.35 in the fourth quarter of 2025 from $1.30 in the fourth quarter of 2024.
1 Direct-to-Consumer revenue represents revenue from purchases made through Company-owned channels, including web storefront transactions and other direct payment flows.
◦Average monthly revenue per payer for the social casino/free-to-play games decreased to $198 in the fourth quarter of 2025 from $282 in the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily as a result of the inclusion of WHOW Games, which has a lower average revenue per payer.
•Net cash flows from operating activities were $42.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 from $45.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.
“Our fourth quarter results end a solid year of executing on our strategic plan of expanding our revenue across products and geographies while growing the direct-to-consumer (DTC) revenue streams,” said In Keuk Kim, Chief Executive Officer of DoubleDown. “With the first full quarter of WHOW Games results, our fourth quarter social casino revenue grew approximately 9% year-over-year. And, our DTC revenue grew to over 30% of total social casino revenue in the fourth quarter as a result of our continuing efforts to promote DTC channels to customers. Finally, our SuprNation iGaming subsidiary saw 78% year-over-year growth in the fourth quarter, reflecting our continued success in prudently scaling new player acquisition activities.”
“Our operating focus continues to drive a high conversion of revenue to cash flow, resulting in fourth quarter net cash flow from operations of $42.8 million. With this, DoubleDown’s balance sheet remains solid and allows the company to pursue additional value-building transactions that can further diversify our revenue sources and geographic presence. We ended the fourth quarter with an aggregate net cash position of approximately $455 million. With our consistent free cash flow generation and strong balance sheet, we have considerable flexibility to grow organically and through M&A to enhance shareholder value.”

Safe Harbor Statement
Certain statements contained in this press release are “forward-looking statements” about future events and expectations for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions, and expectations of industry trends, our future financial and operating performance, and our growth plans, taking into account the information currently available to us. These statements are not statements of historical fact. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and assumptions about future events. While our management considers these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks, contingencies and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Therefore, you should not place undue reliance on such statements. Words such as “anticipates,” believes,” “continues,” “estimates,” “expects,” “goal,” “objectives,” “intends,” “may,” “opportunity,” “plans,” potential,” “near-term,” long-term,” “projections,” “assumptions,” “projects,” “guidance,” “forecasts,” “outlook,” “target,” “trends,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “will,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. We qualify any forward-looking statements entirely by these cautionary factors. We assume no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements for any reason or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.
Use and Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Financial Measures
In addition to our results determined in accordance with IFRS, we believe the following non-IFRS financial measure is useful in evaluating our operating performance. We present “adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization” (“Adjusted EBITDA”) because we believe it assists investors and analysts by facilitating comparison of period-to-period operational performance on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. The items excluded from the Adjusted EBITDA may have a material impact on our financial results. Certain of those items are non-recurring, while others are non-cash in nature. Accordingly, the Adjusted EBITDA is presented as supplemental disclosure and should not be considered in isolation of, as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS, and should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements furnished in our report on Form 6-K filed with the SEC.
In our reconciliation from our reported IFRS “Profit before tax” to our Adjusted EBITDA, we eliminate the impact of the following four line items: (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) finance income; (iii) finance expense; and (iv) other (income) expense. The below table sets forth the full reconciliation of our non-IFRS measures:
