Bigtincan reported significant achievements in Q3 FY24, including record results for EBITDA, EBITDA margin, and Free Cash Flow (FCF). The company recorded an EBITDA of $4.2 million, which translates to a 14% EBITDA margin from a quarterly revenue of $30 million, and an FCF of $4.8 million. Year-to-date (YTD) for the nine months ending March 31, 2024, Bigtincan's EBITDA stood at $6.1 million, aligning with the FY24 guidance of over $10 million. The adjusted EBITDA for Q3 FY24 was $5.7 million, leading to a YTD adjusted EBITDA of $11.4 million, which is also on track to meet the FY24 guidance of more than $15 million.
By the end of Q3 FY24, Bigtincan's cash and cash equivalents were $21.6 million, an increase from $19.4 million in December 2023.
