## **Rumble Q1 Financials**

Rumble reported first-quarter revenue of $25.46 million, up 7% year-over-year. The revenue missed a Street consensus estimate of $25.98 million, according to data from Benzinga Pro.

The revenue total was also a first-quarter record for the company.

Rumble reported a loss of 12 cents per share for the first quarter, missing a Street consensus estimate of a loss of nine cents per share.

The company ended the quarter with an average of 56 million global Monthly Active Users, up 8% from the fourth quarter. Rumble said the increase was driven by international expansion and growth of Rumble Shorts.

Rumble Shorts hit a record of two million unique video views in a single day during May.

The company launched the Rumble Wallet in the quarter, through a partnership with Tether. Rumble Wallet is non-custodial and supports **Bitcoin** (CRYPTO: BTC), **Tether** (CRYPTO: USDT), **Tether Gold** and the USAT stablecoin.

Rumble said it remains on track to acquire **Northern Data,** an AI infrastructure company. The company estimates the acquisition will close in mid-June 2026.

The deal is expected to boost Rumble's AI offerings.
