Verve Accelerates Organic Revenue Growth to 31% in Q3'24, Driven by
Increased Demand from New and Existing Clients for Privacy-First Targeting
Solutions and Additional Budgets for Full-Screen Video Ads

Disclosure of inside information according to Article 17 MAR of the
Regulation (EU) No 596/2014
Stockholm, Sweden - October 30, 2024 - Verve Group SE ("Verve" or the
"Company", ISIN: SE0018538068; Ticker: VER at Nasdaq First North / M8G at
Frankfurt Stock Exchange) reports that organic revenue growth increased for
the fourth consecutive quarter, now reaching 31% in Q3 2024. The
acceleration of organic growth is driven by multiple factors, including new
large customer onboardings, scaling up of existing customers, increasing
demand for ID-less targeting solutions, as well as full-screen and video
ads.

Key Highlights:

* Significant Customer Growth: Large software clients (customers with >
$100K revenue per year) grew by 45% year-over-year, from 690 to 998
(organic growth, excluding the Jun Group acquisition), underscoring
Verve's effectiveness in onboarding and scaling high-value partnerships
organically.

* Privacy-First Targeting Leads Growth: revenue generated on iOS-Apple
devices, on which the majority of end-consumers don't provide consent
for tracking since the deprecation of Apple's IDFA (Identifier for
Advertising), surged by 51% compared to the previous year as customers
increasingly turn to Verve's privacy-first targeting solutions.

* Full-Screen Video Ads Gain Traction: Revenue from full-screen video ads
grew year-over-year by 233%, reflecting Verve's competitive edge in
immersive ad formats.

destination. As pioneers in this field, our foresight positions us to lead
