'The Social Networking Application industry is brand new and constantly evolving. Applications like SNAP’s present the first real way to date on Social Networking sites, and users are clearly embracing them – Facebook’s dating apps have already achieved a combined 28 million users.'


Overview

New York-based SNAP Interactive, Inc. originally launched stand-alone online dating site IamFreeTonight.com in 2006. Then came the May ‘07 Facebook® Platform launch – SNAP recognized this as an extraordinary opportunity to acquire users at little to no cost and immediately shifted its focus to building dating applications on Social Networking websites. Today SNAP has 8 total applications across Facebook, MySpace, Hi5 and Bebo. Its brands “Are You Interested”, “Meet New People” and “Flirt With Me” have over 15 million total users and receive in excess of 1 million visits per day.


Investment Highlights

  • Top 10 application and #1 pure dating application on Facebook, which is the world's 4th most-trafficked site.
  • Already profitable despite the Company's early focus on users and not on making money.
  • 5 consecutive quarters of revenue growth. The Company announced their Q3 '08 numbers in November showing that quarterly net income nearly tripled to $410,283 while quarterly revenue increased 63% to $835,941.
  • 15 million+ users, 1 million+ daily visits with minimal marketing to date.
  • Traffic already compares to leading dating sites.
  • SNAP is a leader in not just the emerging "Social Dating" space but in the entire exploding Social Networking Application Industry.

Market Opportunity/Profile

The Cultural Shift from Online Dating to Social Networking

The numbers are staggering, 15 million+ user installs, 1 million+ daily visits and 800,000 daily active users. But what do these numbers mean? In a nut shell, they mean big business. SNAP Interactive, Inc. originally launched a stand-alone online dating site named IamFreeTonight.com in 2006. Then came the May ‘07 Facebook® Platform launch – SNAP recognized this as an extraordinary opportunity to acquire users at little to no cost and immediately shifted its focus to building dating applications on Social Networking websites. Today SNAP has 8 total applications across Facebook, MySpace, Hi5 and Bebo. Its brands “Are You Interested”, “Meet New People” and “Flirt With Me”.

The revenue model is quite simple, the Company used a platform such as Facebook.com, which according to comScore, is the leading social networking site based on monthly unique visitors, with an estimated 132.1 million unique visitors in June 2008 and growing. Secondly, the Company introduced an application that people wanted to use while using Facebook. The Company then imbedded advertising into the applications and turned an application with little upfront cash into a money maker. The Company utilized the explosive growth of social networking websites and the mushrooming effect that comes with these applications to create a high-margin business model with plenty of upside potential.

As of the first quarter of '08, the Company became profitable and has enjoyed five quarters of consecutive revenue growth. During the Company's latest quarter, evidence of how successful the Company has become in such a short time is all in the numbers. Revenues increased from $35,383 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $871,324 for the three months ended September 30, 2008, an increase of $835,941, or 2,300%. Net Income completely reversed from a loss of $79,538 during the same time period to a stunning $410,283 profit. This reversal resulted in SNAP's net income increasing to approximately $0.04 per share versus a net loss of approximately $0.01. Numbers like that should wet every investor's appetite, and alongside the explosive growth for social networks such as Facebook.com and MySpace.com, this growth will most likely continue to increase exponentially.

The online dating industry is expected to grow to $1.9 billion by 2012, but Match.com and other online dating websites growth is slowing while Facebook and other social networks speed ahead. Industry leaders are suffering from flat subscription and revenue growth, while the social networks continue to grow rapidly – Facebook has just reached 100 million users and is now the 4th most-trafficked site in the world.

The Social Networking Application industry is brand new and constantly evolving (i.e. mobile opportunities). Applications like SNAP’s present the first real way to date on Social Networking sites, and users are clearly embracing them – Facebook’s dating apps have already achieved a combined 28 million users. SNAP is uniquely positioned as a leader in the emerging “Social Dating” space as well as the entire exploding Social Networking Application industry.


The Idea

  • Online dating industry growing to $1.9 billion by 2012, but Match.com and others' growth slowing while Facebook and other social networks speed ahead
  • Application industry in its infancy; huge front-runner opportunity for companies that "get it
  • More large sites launching application platforms every month, dramatically expanding user acquisition opportunities

The Investment Thesis

  • SNAP is already profitable despite early focus on user growth ahead of monetization
  • Already 15 million+ users, 1 million+ daily visits at minimal marketing cost
  • 5 consecutive quarters of revenue growth, with 63% growth in Q3 '08

The Growth Catalysts

  • Aggressive monetization strategy as company matures and industry evolves
  • Mobile dating presents exciting new opportunities for expansion/growth
  • User base of 16 million people and key Social Networking sites foothold make a SNAP association attractive to major players
