'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
