Description: SPOT Spotify Technology September 25, 2025
Spotify Technology S.A. operates a global audio-streaming platform that offers both a paid “Premium” tier and a free “Ad-Supported” tier, delivering music and podcasts to users on smartphones, tablets, computers and other connected devices.
The Premium segment provides unlimited on- and offline access without ads, sold directly to consumers through monthly subscriptions. The Ad-Supported segment delivers on-demand music and free podcast streaming, monetized via programmatic and direct audio advertising.
Beyond streaming, Spotify generates ancillary revenue through services such as sales, distribution, marketing support, contract research and development, and customer-service operations. The company was incorporated in 2006 and is headquartered in Luxembourg City.
Recent performance highlights include a 15 % YoY increase in Monthly Active Users (MAUs) to 725 million in Q2 2024, driven largely by growth in emerging markets, and a 22 % rise in ad-revenue YoY as advertisers shift spend toward audio-first formats. A key sector driver is the accelerating adoption of podcasts, which now represent roughly 30 % of total listening minutes and are central to Spotify’s long-term differentiation strategy.
