Can Spotify's Reliance on AI-Powered Offerings Drive Growth?
Spotify Technology S.A. SPOT has consistently focused on integrating AI to personalize its offerings. This approach has helped the company's steady growth in user engagement reinforce its leadership in the audio streaming market. The AI DJ feature, launched in 2023, continues to resonate with users, with reports indicating high engagement. In the first quarter of 2023, SPOT had 515 million monthly active users (MAU), which increased 16.9% in the fourth quarter of 2023. The company then reported 615 million MAU, marking an increase of 2.1% from the previous quarter. This figure grew nearly 10% by the end of the fourth quarter of 2024. In the most recent March quarter, Spotify reported 678 million MAU, adding 3 million from the previous quarter and rising 10.2% from the same quarter last year. SPOT's AI DJ partially contributed to MAU growth, as other AI-powered features enhanced the user experience. Spotify Wrapped, an AI-driven personalized summary of listening habits, remains a strong tool for retention and engagement. In the recent earnings call, management explained that the slowdown in the first quarter was due to the strong performance of Spotify Wrapped in the previous quarter. This feature is likely to boost user engagement again in the second half of the year as well. Spotify's AI Playlist feature is gaining traction, which allows premium users to create playlists from prompts, and it has expanded to more than 40 new markets in April 2025. This feature improves the value proposition of a paid subscription, contributing toward average year-over-year revenue per user growth of 4% in the first quarter of 2025. The company has also utilized AI in optimizing its ad targeting for a significant proportion of its ad-supported user base, enhancing its user engagement. In doing so, SPOT registered 8% year-over-year growth in ad-supported revenues and witnessed an 885-basis-point increase in its ad-supported gross margin. The company has enhanced its focus on AI-based offerings up a notch by accepting audiobooks from ElevenLabs, an AI software company that offers high-quality voice narration technology. Authors can now use the ElevenLabs platform to narrate their audiobooks in 29 languages and distribute the content to Spotify, expanding their reach. That said, the global audiobooks market is anticipated to grow, seeing a CAGR of 26.2% from 2025 to 2030. Partnering with ElevenLabs is a strategic move for Spotify, allowing it to extend its global reach, strengthen its competitive moat and monetize its enormous global audience. Spotify's Price Performance, Valuation & Estimates The SPOT stock has skyrocketed 128.8% in the past year, significantly outperforming Amazon AMZN and Apple AAPL, and the industry as a whole. The industry has rallied 32%. Amazon has gained 11.7%, while Apple has declined 5.2%. 1-Year Price Performance From a valuation standpoint, SPOT trades at a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 64.34X, higher than Amazon's 33.26X, Apple's 28.33X and the industry's 39.73X. P/E - F12M Spotify has a Value Score of F, while Amazon and Apple have a Value Score of D, respectively. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Spotify's earnings for 2025 is pegged at $9.22 per share, implying 55% year-over-year growth. SPOT currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).

Project to Extend the Opening Hours in 20 SQDC Stores Français
MONTRÉAL, July 4, 2025 /CNW/ - Following the adoption of Act 8 (commonly referred to as Bill 85), which amends the Regulation respecting periods of admission to commercial establishments, the Société québécoise du cannabis (SQDC) will launch a project aimed at extending the opening hours of 20 stores in order to better carry out its mission of converting the users to the legal market with its focus on protecting public health. "The goal of this process is to better fight the illegal market at a time of the day when demand exists and illegal vendors are very active," explains Jean-François Dulac-Lemelin, Senior Vice-President, Customer Experience. "We want to continue serving users by improving accessibility to lower-risk products. This project will help us better understand consumers' behaviour and habits. Nearly 20% of our customers who buy cannabis outside our network cite our opening hours as a reason." Beginning August 3, eight hours of operation will be added. The extended schedule will be until 10 p.m. on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays and until 6 p.m. on Sundays. The current schedule of staying open until 9 p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays will be maintained. It should be noted that since opening its first 12 stores in 2018, the SQDC has been planning to take advantage of extended store hours. The adoption of Act 8 now makes that possible. Targeted locations Twenty points of sale located in busy areas across Québec will be included in the project. An additional Montréal store will join the list later this fall and an exception will be made for another Montréal store. Exception for the Vieux-Montréal store The Vieux-Montréal store will be the first to feature the extended schedule and will do so from its official opening on July 7. This new point of sale will be the 107th in the SQDC network and will feature several changes introduced by the SQDC over the last year to improve its concepts and the customer experience, such as island display cases, displaying products by category (dried flowers, edibles, pre-rolleds, hash, etc.) to improve our advisory approach and using warmer construction materials. "We are very pleased to open a new store in this part of the city and further increase the coverage of our market," said the store's manager, Mario Quattrociocche. "Our advisors have received the necessary training and are ready to field questions from a diverse range of customers. Our model is already well viewed abroad." About the Société québécoise du cannabis (SQDC) The SQDC is a government corporation mandated to distribute and sell cannabis in Québec with a focus on protecting customers' health and safety. The company is committed to offering quality products and informing and advising consumers on how to minimize the health impacts of cannabis. The goal is to shrink the illegal cannabis market in Québec. The declared dividend equal to the company's net income is transferred to the Fonds de lutte contre les dépendances, a fund managed by the Ministère des Finances du Québec, and reinvested primarily in cannabis-related education, prevention efforts and research.
