Description: APP Applovin October 14, 2025
AppLovin Corp. (NASDAQ: APP) operates a software-based platform that helps advertisers acquire users and monetize digital content across mobile and connected-TV (CTV) environments worldwide. The business is split into two primary segments-Advertising, which runs demand-side solutions, and Apps, which includes its portfolio of free-to-play games and related services.
Key offerings include AppDiscovery (demand-side advertising), MAX (in-app bidding that runs real-time auctions for publishers), Adjust (measurement and analytics), and Wurl (CTV distribution and ad-tech). Complementary tools such as SparkLabs (app-store optimization), the AppLovin Exchange (RTB marketplace for mobile and CTV inventory), and Array (end-to-end app management for carriers) expand the ecosystem, while the Apps segment generates recurring revenue from its own and partner-developed games.
According to the most recent Form 10-K (FY 2023), AppLovin reported revenue of roughly **$2.2 billion**, up about **12 % YoY**, driven primarily by a **~68 % gross margin** on its advertising stack. Mobile ad spend is projected to grow 9-10 % annually through 2027, and CTV ad spend is accelerating at ~15 % CAGR, both of which underpin the company’s growth outlook. However, the firm posted an operating loss of $210 million, reflecting heavy investment in scaling its AI-driven bidding and measurement capabilities; this loss margin is a risk factor if ad-spend growth stalls or pricing pressure intensifies.
