Insights

Zedge’s 25% dividend hike, backed by 31% free cash flow growth, signals stronger cash generation and confidence.

Zedge’s Board approved a 25% increase in the quarterly dividend to $0.02 per share, explicitly describing it as funded by free cash flow. Management ties this move to record quarterly revenue, ARPMAU, active subscriptions and Zedge Premium GTV, and a 31% year-over-year rise in free cash flow.

Zedge Increases Quarterly Cash Dividend by 25%

 

Strong Free Cash Flow Generation and Balance Sheet, and Confidence in the Company’s Prospects Support 25% Increase to $0.02 Per Share

 

New York, NY/ ACCESS Newswire / March 25, 2026 / Zedge, Inc. (NYSE AMERICAN: ZDGE), $ZDGE, a leader in digital marketplaces and interactive games that provide content, enable creativity, empower self-expression and facilitate community, today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a 25% increase to its quarterly cash dividend, from $0.016 to $0.02 per share, reflecting the Company’s confidence in its business prospects and ongoing free cash flow generation.

 

Jonathan Reich, Zedge’s CEO, commented:

 

“In our second quarter results, we reported record revenue, ARPMAU, active subscriptions and Zedge Premium GTV. Free cash flow increased 31% year over year, and our balance sheet remains debt-free with $19.1 million in cash. It is against this backdrop that we are raising our quarterly dividend by 25% to $0.02 per share, funded by our free cash flow. We initiated a quarterly dividend just five months ago, and the broad-based record performance we have seen since then gives us the confidence to implement this increase. As we have said from the start, this does not come at the expense of our ability to invest in innovation and growth or repurchase shares when market conditions warrant. Our financial position allows us to do all of these concurrently.”

 

Dividend Details:

 

Quarterly Dividend Amount: $0.02 per share of class B common stock, representing an annualized dividend of $0.08 per share;

 

Prior Quarterly Dividend Amount: $0.016 per share;

 

Record Date: April 6, 2026;

 

Payment Date: April 15, 2026.
