INTERIM REPORT JANUARY -MARCH 2026 TRUECALLER AB
Significant events during the quarter
● Truecaller’s recurring revenues (consumer subscriptions and business revenues) increased by 23% in
constant currencies. Recurring revenues now account for approximately 47% of total revenues (32% in Q1
2025)
● Continued user growth, with Truecaller surpassing 500 million users (iOS + Android). During the
quarter, the average number of monthly active users excluding iOS (MAU) increased to 463.2 million,
representing an increase of just over 12% compared to Q1 2025. The average number of daily active users
(DAU), excluding iOS, increased to 403.2 million, up 13% compared to the same period in 2025. Compared
to Q4 2025, MAU increased by approximately 9 million and DAU by approximately 10 million.
● Advertising revenues declined to SEK 188 million, a decrease of approximately 34% in constant
currencies and approximately 44% in SEK compared to the corresponding quarter last year. The
primary drivers behind the decline in constant currency were lower revenues from Truecaller’s largest
partner in programmatic advertising, revenue loss from the Real Money Gaming (RMG) segment linked
to the Indian Premier League in cricket, and the impact of the conflict in the Middle East. Direct sales from
customers outside the RMG segment in India increased. During the quarter, focus included rebuilding the
auction infrastructure to ensure equal treatment of all partners in the auction process. Direct sales during
the quarter (excluding RMG) showed positive signals, inclu ding growth both versus Q1 and Q4 2025, an
increasing share of annual contracts, and greater diversification across sectors.
● Truecaller surpassed four million paying subscribers, and subscription revenues increased to SEK 112
million, representing growth of 52% in constant currency and 37% in SEK. The average number of paying
subscribers increased by 43% compared to the previous year. Subscriber growth was strong on both iOS
(69%) and Android (32%). Revenues were driven by a higher conversion rate —0.80% (0.63% in the
corresponding quarter of 2025)—to paying users, as well as an increase in average revenue per paying
user (ARPU), excluding currency effects. On iOS, the conversion rate is now 4.17% (2.67%), and on Android
it is 0.55% (0.47%). iOS accounted for 48% (43%) of premium revenues, although revenues are growing on
both platforms. Subscription revenues increased across all regions.
● Revenues from Truecaller for Business (TfB) decreased to SEK 59.4 million, representing a decline of
approximately 8% in constant currencies and 25% in SEK. For Verified Business, ARR in constant currency
was 19% higher compared to the same quarter last year and stable compared to the previous quarter.
Average revenue churn amounted to 2.4% (2.4%). Sales growth was strongest outside India, while growth
in Indi a slowed due to increased competition. Truecaller’s second -largest business product, Business
Messaging, reported significantly lower revenues compared to both the previous year and the previous
quarter. This is a direct result of Truecaller’s decision to move away from a previously exclusive
partnership to a model with multiple CPaaS partners. During 2024 and 2025, Business Messaging volumes
in India grew rapidly under the exclusive partnership, but this created dependency on a single partner
and market. In Q1, the business transitioned to a global multi-partner model. Six new aggregator partners
(including Gupshup, Sinch, Onextel, and Netcore) were onboarded into commercial traffic during the
quarter, and more partners are in the pipeline. Volumes and revenues are currently significantly lower
than before as the new partners ramp up. However, the strategic upside is substantial, as the Business
Messaging base is now diversified across partners and geographies, with volumes exp ected to scale
gradually during the year.
● During the quarter, Truecaller repurchased 9.9 million Class B shares, corresponding to 2.8% of the
outstanding share capital.
Events after the period
• The company has sent out the notice to the Annual General meeting on the 22nd of May. The Board
proposes the AGM a dividend of 0.28 SEK per share and that 16,274,926 repurchased Class B shares be
cancelled, corresponding to 4.6% of the outstanding share capital
• The Nomination Committee proposes the AGM a re-election of the current Board of Directors, with the
exception of Helena Svancar, who has declined re -election and the election of Sandeep Bhushan as a
new Board member. Sandeep brings extensive experience from leading advertising platforms and most
recently served as India Director of Global Marketing Solutions at Meta.
• Truecaller has initiate d a restructuring of its organisation which will lower the headcount with
approximately 70 FTEs. The second quarter is expected to include a one -off restructuring cost of
approximately SEK 22 million and the company expects staff costs excluding incentive costs to be at
least 20% lower from Q3 compared to the Q1 level.

INTERIM REPORT JANUARY -MARCH 2026 TRUECALLER AB
User and premium growth continue, while we strengthen the platform
for the future
The first quarter of 2026 was characterized by continuing growth of both Premium users and free users, taking us to new
records highs of 4 million paying users, and half a billion total users. Additionally, we executed with a strong focus to counter the
recent revenue headwinds and weaker profit development, but they did prevail this quarter as well.
User growth remained solid with a growth of 12.5% year-over-year and adding another 9 million users during the quarter. In the
current environment, we have taken a more disciplined approach to user acquisition in low ARPU regions which to some extent
impacts the user growth, but we believe this is the right approach in the near term. During the quarter, we reached an amazing
milestone, with more than 500 million people using Truecaller globally (iOS and Android combined). To support organic user
growth and accessibility, we have launched Truecaller Lite, a limited version of the Truecaller app. This initiative allows us to
expand our reach and improve the user experience for a large audience that uses low end devices with less reliable
connectivity.
Advertising revenues remained muted during Q1 and declined by 34% year-over-year in constant currencies. We expect ad
revenues to remain soft in Q2, while we continue to execute on our long term strategy to reverse the current trend. The softn ess
in revenue is primarily driven by the challenges with the key demand partner as well as the broader macro environment,
including geopolitical uncertainty in the Middle East. Currency movements also continued to be a headwind, with the
strengthening of the Swedish krona impacting reported revenues. In terms of executing on our long term strategy, we have
made progress in reducing dependency on any single partner by advancing a unified, auction-based monetisation
infrastructure, where initial testing has shown positive results and will continue through Q2 as we scale towards broader
adoption, enabling greater partner participation and competition for our inventory, which we expect to support pricing over
time. During the quarter we experienced a positive momentum in Direct Ad Sales, driven by a more diversified and proactive
market approach, increased focus on performance-led campaigns, and expansion of longer-term client relationships, partially
offsetting the gap created by the RMG segment ban in India last year. At the same time, we expanded our global Direct Sales
footprint through strategic partnerships, entering new markets and building early traction with new advertisers, while seeding
demand across regions where our presence was previously limited.

Over time, our ambition is to evolve into an ad exchange
ourselves, with increased competition for our ads inventory
from both programmatic, partner, and direct sales, giving
us greater control and resilience in our ads business.
Premium revenues from consumers continue to be a good
growth engine for the company with a growth of 52% year-
over-year in constant currencies. We are seeing consistent
global growth driven by higher conversion, stable ARPU, and
increasing user appreciatio n for Premium capabilities.
During the quarter, we surpassed 4 million Premium users.
In several markets, Premium revenues have doubled year -
over-year, with solid performance across both iOS and
Android. We have also started to initiate our new partner
strategy, which will include bundled offerings and reseller
partnerships outside the app stores, which will scale further
in the second half of the year. Premium is increasing its
share of revenue and remains a highly efficient, high -ARPU
business. We continu e to believe that the current 0.8%
Premium user base has a long runway for growth.
Within Truecaller for Business, we saw mixed dynamics and
revenues declined by 8% year -over-year in constant
currencies. Our core Verified Business revenues grew year-
over-year in local currency and remained stable
sequentially versus Q4, primarily impacte d by the
competition from telco offerings in India. Revenue churn is
at similar levels as the same period last year and growth
outside of India continues, but due to the cheaper, although
limited, competitive offering in India, we signed less
customers in the previous quarter than we used to. In Q1, we
have to some extent recovered in new sales. In Business
Messaging, we have executed a significant strategic
transition that we spoke about in the last quarter. We have
moved from a single -partner setup in Ind ia to a global
multi-partner model. While this shift has led to lower
volumes and revenues in the short term as our new
partners ramp up, it creates a far more diversified and
scalable foundation. With several new CPaaS partners
already onboarded and additional partners in the pipeline,
we are positioning the business for meaningful global scale,
with the ambition to over time reach at least the same
scale as previously, rather than relying on a single market
and counterpart.
As a result of the evolving revenue mix — driven by strong
Premium growth, increasing contribution from Truecaller
for Business outside India, and softer advertising revenues—
we are seeing a more diversified geographical footprint.
Revenues from markets outside India and MEA continue to
grow steadily, with India now representing around 60% of
total revenues, compared to approximately 80% at its peak.
Net sales decreased by approximately 16% in constant
currencies, due to the headwinds in our ads business.
Recurring revenues, an important part of our strategy, grew
with 23% in constant currencies and now makes up 47% of
total net sales (32% in Q1 2025). EBITDA in Q1 was SEK 64
million, a decline of 44% in constant currencies and
equivalent to an EBITDA -margin of 18%, which is well below
our ambition.
Given the revenue challenges while we rebuild our ads and
Business Messaging models, we are taking decisive steps
to increase efficiency and focus further. We are simplifying
and reorganizing our operations to make it leaner, this
includes centralizing certain parts of our business to create
efficiency and clearer prioritisations. We will reduce our
staff count materially, with approximately 70 positions, and
consequently incur a one -off restructuring cost of
approximately SEK 23 million in Q2. From Q3 onwards, our
seasonally adjusted staff costs, excluding incentive costs, is
expected to be at least 20 percent lower than they were at
the beginning of 2026 a s a consequence of this
restructuring as well as the efficiency initiatives initiated in
Q1. This reduction in staff count was a very hard decision to
make, but an important one to ensure we remain focussed
and disciplined during this low revenue period.
Given the current revenue challenges, we
are taking decisive actions to i ncrease
efficiency further. We will reduce our
headcount materially, and from the third
quarter our seasonally adjusted staff costs,
excluding incentive costs, are expected to be
at least 20 percent lower than at the
beginning of 2026.
We continue to maintain a strong financial position. Our
balance sheet remains robust, with close to SEK 1 billion in
cash and no financial debt. While profitability remains
positive, margins are currently below our long -term
ambitions due to the ongoing transitions. At the same time,
we continue to generate positive cash flow and the
measures we are taking will increase profitability going
forward. Ahead of the AGM which will be held in May the
Board has proposed a dividend in line with our dividend
policy of 0.28 SEK per share and have also proposed to
cancel 16.3 million repurchased shares equivalent to
approximately 4.6% of outstanding capital.
In the last quarter, I mentioned that 2026 will be a
transformative year for us, building on the company’s
success to create long term resilience and growth. This
transformation is underway and we’re executing well on our
strategy of maturing our ads busin ess and focusing on
recurring revenue growth, while continuing to grow the
number of people using Truecaller globally. This execution
in the coming quarters is critical, and the entire team and I
won’t rest until we are satisfied. Once we are past this
phase, I’m very confident that we will start seeing the gain
on our investments and in the meantime we will make sure
that the company is lean enough to be agile and laser
focused.

Financial performance
First quarter 2026 (January-March)
Revenues
Total revenues during the first quarter decreased by 26
percent compared to the corresponding quarter the
previous year and amounted to SEK 373.7 (506.5) million.
Currency effects had a substantial negative effect on
revenues during the quarter. The decrease in constant
curencies is estimated to have been 17 percent. Other
income amounted to SEK 12.1 (9.7) million. Other income
includes capitalization of internally developed intangible
assets.
Net sales amounted to SEK 361.6 (496.9) million during the
first quarter, a decrease by 27 percent compared to the
corresponding quarter the previous year. Net sales
degrowth in constant currencies is estimated to have been
16 percent, see Currency exposure below.
Net sales distributed by region
Net sales decreased by by 41 percent in India to SEK 214.4
million (SEK 360.4 million) and 3 percent in the Middle East
& Africa (MEA) to SEK 66.5 million (SEK 68.9 million) but
increased by 19 percent in the Rest of the World (RoW) to
SEK 80.6 million (SEK 67.5 million). Sales growth in all
reported regions was negatively affected by the
strengthened Swedish Krona (SEK).
Net sales distributed by service
Ad revenues decreased by 44 percent to SEK 188.0 million
(SEK 3 34.4 million). In fixed currencies, ad revenues are
estimated to have decreased by 34 percent.
Ad revenue per daily active user (DAU), excluding iOS,
decreased to SEK 0. 47 (SEK 0.94) and decreased by 42
percent in fixed currencies. Ad revenues decreased in all
regions with the largest decrease in India.
Average prices for Truecaller’s advertising products (CPM)
decreased compared with the same period last year.
Number of ad impressions generating revenue for
Truecaller declined somewhat compared to the first
quarter of 2025. Revenues from Truecaller’s largest
advertising partner have declined significantly since mid –
Q3. In addition, the ban on Real Money Gaming (RMG)
introduced in India during Q3 2025 has reduced overall
demand for digital advertising, negatively impacting many
advertising platforms. For Trueca ller, this has resulted in
lower revenues compared to the first half of 2025, when the
company benefited f rom revenues from the sector in
connection with the Indian Premier League in cricket in
India.
Truecaller continues to work on its long -term strategy to
diversify advertising revenues both in terms of channels
and geography, as well as to increase the value added of
the company’s advertising.
Revenues from premium subscriptions increased by 37
percent to SEK 112.3 million (82.0). Revenue growth in
constant currencies amounted to 52 percent. The strongest
relative revenue growth was recorded on iOS. Premium
revenues continue to grow steadily as a result of an
improved offering, with more launched features combined
with more targeted marketing of the premium service. The
average number of paying users increased by 43 percent
compared to the same quarter last year and amounted to
3.96 million (2.77 million). The conversion rate to paying
users continued to increase and averaged 0.80% (0.63%)
during the quarter. Average revenue per user increased in
constant currencies but decreased in SEK and amounted to
SEK 9.61 (9.86). Revenues from iOS account fo r
approximately 48% (43%) of total premium revenues, and
the average number of subscribers on iOS increased by 69
percent compared to the same period last year and by 32
percent for Android. The conversion rate on iOS amounted
to 4.17% (2.67%). Revenues gr ew steadily across all regions,
with the strongest growth in MEA and RoW.
Revenues from Truecaller for Business decreased by 25
percent to SEK 59.4 million (79.2). In constant currencies, the
decline is estimated at 8 percent. Revenues from Verified
Business increased in local currency, revenues from
Business Messaging decreased significantly, and revenues
from other products increased. For Verified Business,
annual recurring revenue (ARR) decreased by 3 percent to
SEK 223 million (231 million). ARR growth in constant
currencies amounted to approximately 19 percent
compared to th e same period last year and was stable
compared to Q4 2025. Truecaller’s business services are
highly appreciated by customers, which has historically
resulted in low churn. Revenue loss from such customer
churn in relation to total revenues averaged approximately
2.4 percent (2.4%) during the quarter. Increasing

INTERIM REPORT JANUARY -MARCH 2026 TRUECALLER AB
competition for Truecaller’s original service in this area —
verified calls from businesses — is rising, including through
so-called Business CNAP in India. Truecaller is addressing
this development by building new services that
complement the core offering and create unique value for
business customers. In the short term, however, increasing
competition may lead to a lower growth rate in this area.
Within Business Messaging, the partner model was
reshaped during the first quarter. During 2024 and 2025,
Business Messaging volumes in India were built through an
exclusive partnership with one partner, which quickly
resulted in significant volumes but al so created
dependency on a single counterparty and market. In the
first quarter, the business transitioned to a global multi -
partner model. As a result, volumes with the previous
exclusive partner declined sharply. Commercial volumes
and revenues in Q1 are therefore significantly lower than
before as the new partners are being phased in. However,
the strategic upside is considerably larger, as the Business
Messaging base is now diversified across both partners
and geographies, with volumes expected to scale
gradually during the year.
Other revenues within net sales amounted to SEK 1.9 million
(SEK 1.3 million).
Gross profit
Gross profit decreased by 33 percent to SEK 256.3 million
(SEK 384.3 million) compared to the same period last year.
The gross margin amounted to 70.9 percent (77.3 percent).
The lower gross margin during the quarter is primarily due
to server and verification costs not varying with net
revenue. As net revenue has declined, these costs therefore
represent a larger share of revenue, resulting in a lower
gross margin.
The gross margin has also been negatively impacted by
the fact that, compared to Q1 2025, Truecaller is now able to
quantify commissions for a larger number of smaller
advertising partners and partners within Truecaller for
Business than before. This means that revenues can be
reported on a gross basis, with commissions recorded as
distribution costs. This increases both revenue and
distribution costs, thereby reducing the margin, although it
does not impact profit.
Both advertising revenues and premium revenues have a
cost of goods sold that is broadly constant as a share of net
revenues. Truecaller for Business also has internal sales
costs that are recorded as cost of goods sold. These costs
have a less direct rela tionship to net revenues, which
means that gross margin within this area can fluctuate
somewhat more between quarters.
Operating profit
EBITDA excluding costs for incentive programs decreased
by 48 percent and amounted to SEK 103.3 million (SEK 198.6
million), with an EBITDA margin excluding incentive costs of
28.6 percent (40.0 percent). The decline in fixed currencies
amounted to approximately 37 percent.
EBITDA including costs for incentive programs decreased
by 57 percent to SEK 64,4 million (SEK 149.0 million), with an
EBITDA margin of 17.8 percent (3 0.0 percent). In fixed
currencies, EBITDA decreased by approximately 44 percent
compared to the same period last year.
Operating profit (EBIT) decreased by 66 percent to SEK 45.8
million (SEK 1 33.6 million), corresponding to an operating
margin of 12.7 percent (26.9 percent).
Staff costs excluding incentive programs increased by 1
percent and amounted to SEK 94.3 million (SEK 92.9 million).
Salary costs primarily increased as a result of the annual
salary adjustmen ts. Staff costs including incentive costs
during the period de creased by 6 percent to SEK 133.2
million (SEK 142.4 million).
The Group's long -term incentive program resulted in a
salary-related cost of SEK 42.9 million (SEK 27.1 million) with
a corresponding increase in equity, and social security
contributions of SEK -4.0 million (SEK 22.5 million) which is
reported as a provision in the balance sheet. The costs for
the incentive programs consist of provisions for estimated
social security contributions when employee stock options
or RSUs (Restricted Stock Units) are exercised by Swedish
employees, and an accounting cost for th e potential
dilution that arises through stock options and RSUs. Only the
social security contributions affect cash flow —and only if
and when options or RSUs are redeemed. The salary -
related costs increased due to the launch of the annual
incentive program for 2025. Incentive costs related to salary
are valued at fair value and are amortized over the
program's term. The social security contributions are
affected by the share price at each reporting date and may
therefore amount to higher sums in the event o f a positive
share price development, which can create volatility in the
income statement. See further information in note 5.
Other external costs decreased by 31 percent to SEK 70.8
million (102.6) compared to the same period last year. The
decrease was primarily due to lower costs for preloads and
user acquisition, as well as higher marketing costs in Q1
2025 when a major campaign was conducted fo r the
launch of Truecaller’s new iOS product.
Profit and earnings per share for the period
Profit before tax decreased by 66 percent to SEK 47.9 million
(SEK 140.6 million). Net profit for the period after tax
amounted to SEK 32.5 million (SEK 101.7 million). Net financial
income amounted to SEK 2,0 million (SEK 7.0 million).
The total tax expense amounted to SEK 15.4 million (SEK 38.9
million), corresponding to an effective tax rate of 32.2
percent (27.7 percent) for the Group. The effective tax rate
is a combination of the Swedish and Indian corporate tax
rates. Since programmatic advertising revenues from the
company’s largest advertising partner, which are recorded
in the Swedish operations, have declined sharply, a
significantly smaller share of the group’s total profit is now
recognized in Sweden. This, in turn, has resulted in the
group’s tax rate for the quarter being dominated by the
===== SIDA 10 =====
10
INTERIM REPORT JANUARY -MARCH 2026 TRUECALLER AB
Indian corporate tax rate. The group is currently reviewing
its internal agreements regarding revenue allocation.
Meanwhile, the lower programmatic advertising revenues
mean that the Swedish tax rate will have a smaller impact
on the group’s overall tax rate than previously, resulting in a
tax rate higher than historical levels.
Earnings per share before dilution amounted to SEK 0. 10
(SEK 0.30) and after dilution to SEK 0.10 (SEK 0.30).
Cash flow and financial position
Cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK 88.6
million (SEK 110.0 million), of which SEK 12.5 million (SEK -11.2
million) is attributable to changes in working capital and
SEK -29.6 million (SEK -68.0 million) is attributable to paid
income tax. Cash flow from investing activities amounted
to SEK 41.5 million (SEK -109.8 million) and included sale of
short-term interest funds of 50.0 million (-). Cash flow from
financing activities amounted to SEK -135.4 million (SEK -9.5
million) and included repurchases of own shares of SEK -
126,2 million (SEK - million). Net cash flow for the period
amounted to SEK -5.3 million (SEK -9.3 million).
At the end of the quarter, Truecaller had cash and cash
equivalents amounting to SEK 371.9 million (SEK 462.0
million) and SEK 550.8 million (SEK 935.0 million) placed in
short-term interest funds. The solvency ratio amounted to
77.1 percent (78.2 percent).
Truecaller has a revolving corporate credit facility of SEK
500.0 million (SEK 500.0 million). As of the balance sheet
date, SEK - (-) million had been utilized. The revolving
corporate credit facility is available until 2028.
The Group's total assets as of March 31, 2026, amounted to
SEK 1, 550.8 million (SEK 2,058.4 million). The carrying
amounts for financial assets and financial liabilities are
assessed to substantially correspond to their fair value.
The Group's total trade receivables decreased and
amounted to SEK 126.0 million (SEK 132.0 million) and
receivables from advertising networks and platform owners
amounted to SEK 78.4 million (SEK 124.9 million). Compared
to the previous quarter, trade receivables decreased.
Payment terms for the company's customers are normally
30–90 days. Truecaller closely monitors customer
payments to ensure that overdue payments are kept as low
as possible. Customer s who do not pay according to
business agreements are terminated. Reported but not yet
realized customer credit losses in the balance sheet
amounted to SEK 11.4 million (SEK 8.8 million) as of March 31,
2026. Receivables from advertising networks and platform
owners are mainly linked to outstanding receivables from
platforms like Google.
Investments
During the first quarter of 2026, SEK 10.0 (8.6) million were
capitalized as internally developed intangible assets.
Truecaller capitalizes certain development investments
where future financial benefits can be accurately
forecasted. Most of the Group’s development work is
however taken as a direct cost, as the future financial
benefits of on -going development work is difficult to
forecast accurately.
Currency exposure
The majority of Truecaller's revenues are denominated in
Swedish Krona (SEK) through partners such as Google and
Apple. Therefore, there is limited direct currency exposure.
These partners, in turn, invoice users of Truecaller's services
partly in local currencies, which entails an indirect currency
exposure for Truecaller. However, Truecaller does not have
complete information on the currency exposure or how the
currency impact is managed by the partners and can
therefore currently not quantify the indirect currency
exposure with precision.
The largest currency risks are connected to INR (Indian
Rupee) and USD (US Dollar). A weakening of the SEK against
these currencies has a positive effect on the company's
sales and earnings, even though it simultaneously
increases the company's costs.
The company estimates that exchange rate changes had
a negative impact on net sales of approximately SEK 57
million during the first quarter of 202 6 compared to the
corresponding quarter in 202 5. This was due to a
strengthening of the SEK against most foreign currencies,
on average by 19% against the INR and 14% against the USD,
compared to the same period in 202 5. The company also
estimates that exchange rate changes had a negative
effect on EBITDA of approximately SEK 20 million,
corresponding to approximately 2.3 percentage points on
the EBITDA margin.
Parent company
Parent company income for the quarter amounted to SEK
3.0 (6.6) million which refers to billing of subsidiaries for
services rendered. The profit before tax amounted to SEK 1.5
(-4.3) million. The profit after tax amounted to SEK 1.2 (-3.4)
million. Cash and cash equivalents on 31 March 2026
amounted to SEK 22.3 (33.6) million. In addition to the cash
and cash equivalents the parent company has SEK 180.9
(310.3) million invested in short-term interest rate funds. No
investments have taken place in intangible or tangible
assets. At the end of the period, 1 (2) person was employed
in the parent company.

Product update
Against a challenging revenue backdrop, Truecaller’s
product initiatives are increasingly concentrated on
widening the addressable market across every part of the
business. The quarter saw two landmark milestones: the
Premium subscriber base crossed 4 mill ion, and the
overall user base crossed 500 million monthly active
users by the end of March.
Alongside these milestones, Truecaller continued to
invest in initiatives that extend its reach along several
axes: from individuals to households (Family Protection);
to user segments previously out of reach (Truecaller Lite
for entry -level devices); thro ugh new distribution
channels (Premium partnerships); new geographies
(Business Messaging moving to a global multi -partner
model); and the expansion of revenue streams from
existing assets (Identity Management SDK, number
intelligence). In parallel, Trueca ller took another step
toward a proprietary, direct-sold advertising stack.
Family Protection goes global
Family Protection is Truecaller’s household -level safety
product, which allows a designated family administrator to
extend the app’s spam and fraud protections through
customized settings and real -time intervention on
suspicious calls. Introduced in Q4 2025 as a free pilot in four
select markets, the product was rolled out globally during
the first quarter of 2026, including in India, Truecaller's
largest market. Within roughly 30 days of the global launch,
over 3 million families had been created, an early signal
that the demand for shared, multi -generational safety is
both real and scalable.
The product remains free to set up, with advanced
protections available through Truecaller Family Premium.
On iOS, the product reached feature parity with Android
during the quarter, closing the ecosystem gap and allowing
iPhone-based administrators to pro tect Android -first
family members.
Family Protection also anchored the quarter's Premium
marketing activity. The global launch was amplified
alongside campaigns across the quarter, and the Premium
Family Plan was positioned as the default way to act on the
new safety layer.
Sharpening the core trust engine
With Family Protection acting as the packaging of the
company's safety work, the underlying trust engine
continued to get sharper. A new machine -learning
powered name ranker — the process that selects the
names Truecaller shows for each number — went into
production A/B test in India and Egypt during the quarter.
On contested numbers, where multiple plausible names
exist for a single number, the new ranker lifted accuracy
from 35 percent to 83 percent. It is the first ML -powered
name ranker Truecaller has p ut into production, and it will
continue to self -improve as it sees more real -world traffic
through Q2 and beyond.
Fraud detection saw two material upgrades in parallel. A
new graph -based fraud detection model moved to
production, surfacing roughly seven times more fraud
numbers than conventional detection, with accuracy
reaching 83 percent against a 75 percent baselin e.
Truecaller's primary caller -fraud scoring model was also
upgraded, roughly doubling the volume of fraud
impressions without any loss in accuracy, helping flag risky
callers to a materially larger set of users every day.
Alongside these platform-wide model upgrades, Truecaller
continues to invest in market -specific localization to make
the product more relevant and sticky in each country,
rather than offering a one -size-fits-all experience. In Chile,
Truecaller launched a new iPhone feature that blocks
inbound calls from two number series frequently used for
unsolicited marketing and nuisance calls. This extends a
pattern already live in other markets, where Premium users
on both iOS and Andr oid can block specific number se ries
for special purpose calls. Truecaller plans to extend this
===== SIDA 12 =====
12
INTERIM REPORT JANUARY -MARCH 2026 TRUECALLER AB
pattern of shipping targeted, market specific spam
protections to more markets and regions in the coming
months.
Voicemail adoption in India has historically been minimal;
constrained by outdated interfaces and paid retrieval
models, voicemail never gained broad consumer adoption.
Truecaller's own voicemail product, launched in India in Q4
2025, scaled to 100 percent of Indian users during the
quarter. By the end of March, over 5 million voicemails were
being left every day, with hundreds of thousands of new
users setting up their first -ever voicemail inboxes every
week. Beyond creating a new reason to use Truecaller every
day, the product also serves as a freemium gateway into
the Premium Assistant experience.
The new generation of Truecaller Assistant completed its
migration during the quarter, with rollouts in Chile, Israel,
and Sweden. This makes the new Assistant experience,
which includes a more life -like conversational experience
and real-time fraud detect ion — available across eight of
Truecaller’s focus markets. On iOS, Live Activities were
added for the Assistant, which means users can now see a

easily take over the call if it turns out to be le gitimate.
Underlying infrastructure upgrades during the quarter cut
transcription costs by roughly half, and expanded
language coverage substantially, improving the unit
economics of Truecaller’s voice AI products as they scale.
Finally, Q1 saw the soft launch of Truecaller Lite, a lighter,
lower-footprint version of the Truecaller app designed for
entry-level devices . This meaningfully widens Truecaller’s
addressable market in emerging markets; being on a
lower-end device is no longer a barrier to having Truecaller,
and this extends the product’s reach to a substantial new
pool of users whose phones could not comfortably run the
full version. Truecaller Lite is ad -supported, meaning that
every new user it brings in is immediately monetizable.
Truecaller Lite went live on select devices in Nigeria and
Colombia in February, with plans to expand availability
across devices and markets in Q2 and beyond. decisions,
effortlessly distinguishing between potentially urgent
personal matters and random solicitations.
Validating the Premium value proposition
at four million subscribers
Premium remained the company’s most consistent growth
engine through the first quarter, crossing 4 million
subscribers in mid -February. Despite continued currency
headwinds, total Premium revenue reached SEK 112.3
million, an increase of 37 percent year ov er year, but 52
percent in constant currencies. On a yearly basis, iOS
revenue grew 56 percent, more than double Android's 27
percent, reflecting the continuing payoff of the Live Caller ID
launch on iPhone a year earlier and a Premium feature set
that has now substantially caught up with Android.
The subscriber base grew 43 percent year over year, with
iOS subscription growth at 69 percent year over year, again
more than double Android's 32 percent. Nigeria grew 89
percent year over year, with iOS revenues in the country up
more than 250 percent du ring the time. Premium
subscriptions in Colombia, South Africa, Malaysia, and
Israel also posted strong gains during the quarter.
On the distribution side, Q1 also saw meaningful progress
on Premium partnerships, which are set to become a more
visible growth lever through the rest of 2026. The
Monetization Engine gained the ability to dynamically
bundle partner offers into Premium pl ans, with different
partners available by audience and market, giving
increased flexibility to add partners on the fly. Custom
promo code support went live on both iOS and Android, and
a reseller API was built out to take Premium distribution
beyond the ap p stores. Strategically, this is a meaningful
addressable market expansion for Premium, extending
Truecaller’s distribution reach beyond what direct app store
funnel optimization alone can deliver.
Scaling trust for the enterprise
The most consequential shift in Truecaller for Business
during Q1 was the reshaping of the Business Messaging
partner model. Through 2024 and 2025, Business
Messaging volume in India had been built on an exclusive
partnership with a single aggregator, which drove scale
quickly but left the line concentrated on one counterparty
and one market. During Q1, the line moved onto a multi-
partner model worldwide, with five aggregator partners —
Gupshup, Route Mobile, Onextel, Bird, and Infobip — and
several additional global partners in the pipeline. The
near-term trade-off is lower commercial volumes than
the previous baseline as the new partner set ramps, but
the strategic upside is considerably larger. The Business
Messaging base is now diversified across partners and
geographies, and Truecaller has the distribution structure
to reach meaningful global scale in the coming quarters,
rather than being dependent on a single aggregator's
India footprint.

INTERIM REPORT JANUARY -MARCH 2026 TRUECALLER AB
During the quarter, Truecaller's Identity Management SDK
began its transition from a free developer utility to a
commercial, usage-based product. The first set of deals
closed during the quarter with long-term contracts,
including one customer where the commercial case was
led by the SDK. New SIM and device binding capabilities
were added, extending the SDK’s relevance into higher-
security verticals such as gaming, Non-Banking Financial
Companies (NBFCs), and brokerage, where authentication
fraud is particularly acute.
Alongside this, the Verified Business Customer Experience
(CX) line continued to add capabilities aimed at driving
increased adoption and retention among existing
enterprise customers. Multi-campaign support with a
carousel on the after-call screen (ACS) was added to
enable enterprise customers to run several Verified
Campaigns against individual calls, enabling user-level
personalisation and targeting.
Additionally, Campaigns Lite on Verified Calls were rolled
out alongside segmentation on Message ID (MID)
categories to accelerate acquisition in the Banking,
Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI) sector. The Call
Reason feature was enhanced with Generative AI, allowing
businesses to compose richer, context-aware reasons
that go beyond prewritten templates. A product-led
growth onboarding flow was also launched, opening a
long tail of smaller businesses that the existing sales-led
motion does not reach efficiently.
The European expansion of Verified Business continued as
well. Following the Q3 2025 launch of the CX platform in
Europe, Call Personalization, Call-Me-Back, and Secure
Call all went live in the region during Q1 2026, bringing the
European product scope in line with the rest of the world.
Advancing the Ads stack transformation
The pivot to a proprietary Ads infrastructure, set out in Q4
2025, continued to advance during Q1. The Truecaller Ad
Server (TAS) remains the architectural centre of the rebuild,
with both branding and performance demand routed
through it, and the Decision Layer, the price-based auction
engine that is meant to unify demand routing inside TAS,
entered early production rollout during the quarter.
Consolidating the two auction paths Truecaller has
historically run into a single unified auction is underway
rather than complete, but the core components needed to
get there are now in flight.
Early commercial signal from the rebuild is beginning to
show. TAS revenue more than doubled from January to
March, albeit from a relatively small base. TC Play,
Truecaller's interactive branded experience, saw advertiser
adoption grow by more than 300 per cent in the quarter,
validating the thesis that direct-sold, differentiated formats
attract higher -value brand spend. The advertiser base
expanded with new wins including BMW, Uber, Samsung,
Blinkit, Bajaj Finserv, CoinDCX, and Paytm, among others.
Internationally, reseller partnerships were activated with
Anymind Group, 365 Digital, and Integrated Media Tech
across more than 15 markets covering the Middle East,
North Africa, Southeast Asia, Kenya, and Tier 2 and Tier 3
markets in India, continuing to expand the distribution base
for direct sales.
Several proprietary formats were introduced or upgraded.
Masthead and the After Call Screen ad formats were
upgraded to a higher -engagement rendering stack with
more flexibility for creative teams, and a new Details View
Interstitial format entered beta to offer full -screen,
premium branding placements. adVantage, Truecaller's
proprietary recommendation engine, was scaled to all
performance campaigns and was upgraded with meta
information support to improve recommendation quality,
and retargeting on TAS was strengthened for more precise
audience re-engagement.

Truecaller's Data Processing
Truecaller's platform is designed with consideration for
privacy and data protection. It is built on consent,
transparency, and purpose limitation. Users have full
control their personal data, while information about non-
users is processed restrictively and solely to promote
secure and informed communication.
Truecaller only processes data that users provide with
informed and explicit consent. When a user chooses to use
Truecaller, only minimal personal data, such as name and
phone number, is collected to enable caller identification
in accordance with applicable regulations. Any additional
information voluntarily provided by the user is completely
optional and governed by the user's own settings. Users
can remove their phone numbers from Truecaller's
platform at any time via a public website or by contacting
Truecaller's customer support.
Truecaller has implemented extensive and industry-
standard security measures to protect the integrity of
collected and processed personal data. This includes
secure servers, access controls, and cloud security
provided by reputable vendors. The technical architecture
is built on strict organizational separation, ensuring
compliance with applicable data protection regulations in
all jurisdictions. The absolute majority of data processed
concerns user data, business data (outside the scope of
data protection), and spam-related data. Some users
voluntarily choose to contribute data, such as name
suggestions.
For non-user data, processing is based on Truecaller's
legitimate interest in providing accurate caller ID services,
enabling informed decisions, and reducing exposure to
unwanted or malicious communication. All data
processing occurs with strong safeguards for personal
integrity. Data is limited to what is necessary, anonymized,

and are clearly informed in the app about how their
contributions and data are used to protect the
community. Non-users have access to clear information
via Truecaller's privacy policy and can request that their
number be removed from the search database at any
time.
Indian tax survey
During the fourth quarter 2024, Truecaller was subject to a
tax survey in India. Such surveys are commonplace for
multinational companies, and often focuses on transfer
pricing arrangements. Truecaller has a well balanced and
well documented transfer pricing policy in place since 2018.
At this point in time the company sees no reason to assume
that this recent Indian survey will result in any material
increased tax payments in India for revenues recognised
during previous financial periods, once the process reaches
its final conclusion. This assessment may change during
the c ourse of the process. As Truecaller's business
operations and revenue streams develop, the company
continuously assesses the existing model, in co -operation
with relevant tax authorities, in order to stay compliant with
local tax regulations. It is conceivable that this may lead to
adaptions to the present model that may increase future
tax payments in one jurisdiction, whi le reducing them in
others.
Risks and uncertainties
Like all companies. Truecaller is exposed to various types of
risk in the course of business. These include risks related to
currency movements. dependence upon certain strategic
partners. the general economic trend and developments in
the financial market . technical progress. dependence on
key individuals. legal risks and risks associated with
personal privacy. as well as tax risks and political risks. Risk
management is an integrated component of the
management of Truecaller. The risks described for the
Group could also have indirect impact on the parent
company. A complete description of risks and uncertainties
associated with Truecaller is provided in the 202 5 annual
report.
The present conflict in the Middle East has decreased the
number of Truecaller users marginally in the affected
region and also had some negative impact on the ads
demand. A prolonged conflict with larger global
macroeconomic impact will impact Truecallers operations
negatively.

The carrying amount is considered a good estimate of the
fair value of current receivables and liabilities . The
maximum credit risk of the assets comprises the net
amounts of the carrying amounts shown in the table above.
The Group has short -term placements , conditional
consideration (earnouts) and non-current financial assets
that are measured at fair value through profit or loss. Fair
value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or
paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date. The
measurement methods are classified in a hierarchy
consisting of three levels defined as follows:
• Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets
• Level 2 Inputs other than quoted prices that are
observable directly (prices) or indirectly (derived
from prices)
• Level 3 Non-observable market data
There were no transfers between the levels during the
period. The Group has no financial assets or liabilities that
have been offset in the accounts or which are covered by a
legally binding netting agreement.
Short-term placements
Truecaller has investments placed in short-term fixed
income funds. The fair value of the holding is determined
by using market prices on the reporting date according to
Level 1. The effect of the measurement at fair value is
recognized in profit or loss. The adjustment to the fair
value of these instruments is reflected directly in “Short-
term placements” in the statement of financial position.

Conditional consideration (earnout)
Conditional consideration is categorized at level 3 of the fair
value hierarchy. The fair value of conditional consideration
is calculated by discounting future cash flows by a risk -
adjusted discount rate. The conditional consideration for
CallHero is classified as a non-current liability.

insurance costs for the program based on the estimated
benefit value for participants.
The salary -related costs increased due to the
introduction of a new program in 2025. Salary -related
incentive costs are valued at fair value and are amortized
over the program's term. The social security contributions
are affected by the share price at the end of each reporting
period and may therefore be higher with positive share
price development, which can create volatility in the
income statement

programs, refer to the 2025 annual report.
