Management highlights
Revenue increased 5% year over year, operating profit stable despite more marketing investment.

Membership revenue recognized over subscription period, higher acquisition expenses reduce EPS in short term but expect EPS to increase over time. Strategy to fuel member growth at 112% year-over-year, new club members half from legacy and half from new. Leverage global reach, trusted brand, and relationships with travel suppliers to negotiate club offers. Launched travel enthusiast hotline in partnership with Allianz, soon to have culinary journeys. Management focus on growing paying members, converting legacy members, retaining and growing advertising business, growing ChexFlightClub subscription revenue, and developing TravelSoup Meta.
