New York – October 28, 2025 – Perfect Corp. (NYSE: PERF) (“Perfect” or the “Company”), a leading artificial intelligence (“AI”) company offering AI and augmented reality (“AR”) powered solutions to beauty, fashion, photo and video creative industries, today announced its unaudited financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Total revenue was $18.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $16.1 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 15.7%. The increase was primarily due to strong growth momentum in the revenue of mobile app and web services subscriptions.

•AI- and AR- cloud solutions and subscription revenue was $15.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $13.4 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 17.2%. The increase was driven by the continued revenue growth of YouCam mobile app and web services subscriptions, the growing popularity among consumers of Generative AI technologies and AI editing features for photos and videos, and the stable demand for the Company’s online virtual product try-on solutions from brand customers.

•Licensing revenue was $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $2.4 million in the same period of 2024, a decrease of 9.5%.

Gross profit was $14.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared with $13.0 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 9.2%. Gross margin was 75.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2025, down from 80.3% in the same period of 2024. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to the increase in AppStore and GooglePlay platform processing fees paid to digital distribution partners, such as Google and Apple, driven by the steady growth in our YouCam mobile app subscription revenue. In addition, the increases in AI server computing cost, resulting from the growing demand for premium features powered by generative AI photo and video services, also contributed to the decrease in gross margin.

Total operating expenses were $13.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared with $13.0 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 4.7%. The increase was primarily due to increases in sales and marketing expenses and research and development expenses, which were partially offset by a decrease in general and administrative expenses in the third quarter of 2025.

•Sales and marketing expenses were $7.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $7.1 million during the same period of 2024, an increase of 11.6%. This increase was primarily due to an increase in marketing events and advertising expenses related to our mobile apps and web services subscription.

•Research and development expenses were $3.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $3.2 million during the same period of 2024, an increase of 22.4%. The increase was caused by two main factors: (i) the continued foreign exchange impact caused by the depreciation of the U.S. dollar against New Taiwan dollar elevated personnel costs for our Taiwan-based development team, and (ii) the increase in research and development headcount and related compensation expenses following the acquisition of Wannaby Inc. (“Wannaby”) in the first quarter of 2025.

•General and administrative expenses were $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $2.1 million during the same period of 2024, a decrease of 18.2%. The decrease was primarily due to reduced corporate insurance premium and external professional service fees.

Total operating income were $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared with an operating loss of $0.1 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of $0.6 million turning from a loss to an income position. The increase was primarily driven by higher revenue and gross profit, while operating expenses grew only modestly.

Net income was $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $2.5 million during the same period of 2024, a decrease of 17.9%. The decrease in net income was primarily due to (i) higher AppStore and GooglePlay platform processing fees, (ii) higher Taiwan personnel costs due to foreign exchange impact by a weaker U.S. dollar, (iii) increases in operating expenses after the acquisition of Wannaby, and (iv) lowered interest income due to decreases in interest rates on the Company’s cash reserve.

Beginning with the third quarter of 2025, we will no longer present adjusted net income (loss), as this metric is no longer utilized by our management to assess or evaluate our operating performance.

Operating cash flow was $2.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $4.2 million in the same period of 2024, a decrease of 34.6%.

Total revenue was $51.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $44.3 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 15.1%.

•AI- and AR- cloud solutions and subscription revenue was $44.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $38.7 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 15.4%. The increase was driven by the continued revenue growth of YouCam mobile apps and web services subscriptions.

•Licensing revenue was $4.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $4.7 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 1.0%.

Gross profit was $38.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared with $35.2 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 10.7%. Gross margin was 76.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, slightly down from 79.4% in the same period of 2024.

Total operating expenses were $40.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared with $37.8 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 5.9%. The increase was primarily due to increases in research and development and sales and marketing expenses, which were partially offset by a decrease in general and administrative expenses during the period.

•Sales and marketing expenses were $23.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $21.3 million during the same period of 2024, an increase of 8.5%.

•Research and development expenses were $11.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $9.2 million during the same period of 2024, an increase of 25.0%.

•General and administrative expenses were $5.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $6.7 million during the same period of 2024, a decrease of 19.2%.

Total operating loss were $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared with an operating loss of $2.7 million in the same period of 2024, a decrease of 57.7%. The decrease in operating loss was primarily driven by higher revenue and gross profit, while operating expenses grew only modestly.

Net income was $4.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $3.9 million during the same period of 2024, an increase of 16.7%.

Operating cash flow was $10.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $9.8 million in the same period of 2024, an increase of 10.3%. The Company continues to invest in growth while maintaining a healthy cash flow to support business operations underscoring the Company’s operational health and sustainability.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents remained stable at $127.9 million (or $170.1 million when including 6-month time deposits of $36.3 million and money market funds of $5.9 million, which are classified as current financial assets at amortized cost and current financial assets at fair value through profit or loss under IFRS, respectively), compared to $127.1 million (or $165.9 million when including time deposits and money market funds) as of December 31, 2024.

•The number of active subscribers for the Company's YouCam mobile apps and web services was 946,000 as of September 30, 2025, compared to over 960,000 as of June 30, 2025, a decrease of 1.5%. This slight decline was as a result of the mobile app subscription plan’s average selling price ("ASP") increase initiative introduced in early 2025, which strategically prioritized higher revenue per user and long-term monetization efficiency over short-term volume growth.

•As of September 30, 2025, the Company’s cumulative customer base included 842 brand clients, with over 953,000 digital stock keeping units (“SKUs”) for makeup, haircare, skincare, shoes, bags, eyewear, watches and jewelry products, compared to 818 brand clients and over 914,000 digital SKUs as of June 30, 2025. The number of Key Customers1 of the Company as of September 30, 2025 was 142 compared to 139 as of June 30, 2025. The increase is mainly from acquisition of new customer in both makeup and skincare categories.

Ms. Alice H. Chang, the Founder, Chairwoman, and Chief Executive Officer of Perfect commented, “Perfect Corp. continues to demonstrate steady revenue growth and resilience across its business segments. Our foundation remains strong, and our outlook for the future is bright, supported by ongoing AI innovation and expanding opportunities across both consumer and enterprise fronts. As we move through the remainder of 2025 and into 2026, our focus remains on driving sustainable growth through AI innovation and strategic diversification.

Since we founded Perfect Corp., we have always continued to reinvest in the growth of our products and new business. At the same time, we are striving to operate more efficiently and effectively with our work force.

1 “Key Customers” refers to the Company’s brand customers who contributed revenue of more than $50,000 in the trailing 12 months ended on the measurement date.

While we have consistently been net income positive, we achieved a milestone in the third quarter of 2025 by reaching operating profit for the first time, compared to operating losses in previous periods. As we align our budget for 2026, we remain focused on continuing to operate with profitability at the forefront.

Our B2C app and web service subscription business continues to show strong momentum, the revenue per user and user engagement continue to rise, validating the value of our premium AI-powered features and confirming the long-term health of our B2C business. We are witnessing a significant increase in user demand for AI-driven image and video generation, reflecting the accelerating shift toward creativity and personalization powered by AI. Building on this trend, we recently introduced new YouCam AI Agents designed to simplify and enhance the user experience.

YouCam AI Agent, a unified, conversational editor now available in YouCam Perfect and YouCam Makeup. By combining beauty styling, skin analysis, fashion try-ons, and pro-grade photo/video enhancement, the agent lets users describe the result they want and delivers fast, precise, studio-quality outputs in seconds. Powered by advanced vision-language AI and Perfect Corp.’s own leading beauty and fashion technologies, YouCam AI Agent sets a new benchmark for intuitive creativity—redefining everyday self-expression, beauty and style through a single, intelligent workflow.

At the core of our success lies the rapid adoption of generative AI in photo and video applications, which continues to be a key driver of both revenue growth and new subscriber acquisition. These technologies empower users to create photorealistic edits, immersive video effects, and personalized digital content that was once only achievable through professional tools—significantly broadening our appeal and deepening user engagement across the YouCam apps and web services ecosystem.

In parallel, our new application programming interface (API) business is gradually contributing to a new revenue stream. This offering allows third-party developers, agencies, and enterprise partners to integrate our proprietary AI, Generative AI, and AR technologies directly into their own ecosystems. We see tremendous potential in this channel to expand our product reach to a broader range of new clients and unlock new monetization opportunities through scalable, API-driven solutions.

Finally, our traditional B2B enterprise business in the beauty and fashion industries continues to navigate a challenging macroeconomic environment marked by cautious client spending and longer decision cycles. Nevertheless, Perfect Corp. remains the clear market leader in virtual try-on and AI beauty/fashion technology, maintaining deep partnerships with top global and luxury brands. As the luxury and beauty markets regain momentum, we believe Perfect Corp. is exceptionally well-positioned to capture the next wave of industry growth, supported by our proven technology leadership and trusted brand relationships.

Driven by steady revenue growth in both YouCam mobile apps and web service subscriptions, along with sustained demand for our enterprise SaaS solutions, the Company reaffirms its full-year 2025 revenue guidance of 13.0% to 14.5% year-over-year growth compared to 2024. This outlook reflects our most recent assessment of market conditions and internal performance trends and may be adjusted should conditions change.”
