Currenc Group Inc. Announces Second Quarter and First Half 2025 Financial Results

Singapore, August 4, 2025 (Globe Newswire) — Currenc Group Inc. (Nasdaq: CURR) (“Currenc” or the “Company”), a fintech pioneer empowering financial institutions worldwide with artificial intelligence (AI) solutions, today announced its financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025.

Second Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights

● Total Processing Value (TPV) through Tranglo was US$1.46 billion for the second quarter of 2025, increasing by 6.9% year-over-year. Total number of transactions increased to 3.1 million for the second quarter of 2025 from 2.9 million for the same period of 2024.

● Total revenues excluding TNG Asia and GEA¹ were US$8.7 million for the second quarter of 2025, representing a year-over-year decrease of 10.3%, primarily due to a 16.7% decline in global airtime revenue and a 39.6% decline in Indonesian Airtime revenue.

	For the three-month period ended June 30,
	2025		2024
	$		$
	(dollars in thousands)
Remittance revenue excluding TNG Asia & GEA		5,226		4,816
Global Airtime Revenue		1,996		2,389
Indonesian Airtime Revenue		1,496		2,475
Total Revenue excluding TNG Asia & GEA		8,718		9,680

● Total remittance revenues excluding TNG Asia and GEA, i.e., remittance revenues contributed by Tranglo, were US$5.2 million for the second quarter of 2025, an increase of 8.3% year-over-year. The increase in remittance revenue was mainly due to a 6.9% increase in TPV. Tranglo’s overall take rate improved to 0.36% in the second quarter of 2025 from 0.35% in the same period of 2024.

● Currenc’s global airtime transfer revenues were US$2.0 million for the second quarter of 2025, representing a year-over-year decrease of 16.7%. The growing availability of free Wi-Fi in Southeast Asian countries, especially Malaysia and Indonesia, has led to declining demand for Malaysia-Indonesia airtime transfers, resulting in a decline in global airtime business in the second quarter of 2025. As Currenc expects this trend to continue in Southeast Asian markets, the Company’s management plans to deemphasize airtime transfer and reallocate its resources and capital to expand its new AI product offerings.

● Total direct costs of revenue were US$5.5 million for the second quarter of 2025, representing a year-over-year decrease of 24.1%.

¹ Currenc divested TNG Asia and GEA in August 2024 and July 2024, respectively. As such, from the fourth quarter of 2024 onward, only Tranglo’s (digital remittance and global airtime transfer businesses) and WalletKu’s (Indonesian airtime business) results will be consolidated and reported in the Company’s financial statements.

● The direct payout rate for Tranglo’s remittance business was 0.14% for the second quarter of 2025, a slight increase compared to 0.12% for the same period of 2024. Currenc’s overall gross profit margin ratio for the second quarter of 2025 was 37.2%, compared to 34.5% for the same period of 2024.

● Total operating expenses increased to US$7.6 million for the second quarter of 2025 from US$5.1 million for the same period of 2024. The increase was mainly due to expenses of US$2.2 million in recognition of the incentive shares granted to employees upon the completion of the INFINT SPAC merger.

As Currenc divested TNG Asia and GEA in August and July 2024, respectively, its operating costs now reflect the operating costs of Tranglo, WalletKu and the Company’s headquarters only. Also, with the rollout of its new AI initiatives, Currenc incurred US$1.0 million in operating costs related to these new businesses in the second quarter of 2025. The new AI businesses are expected to contribute incrementally to revenues and positively impact EBITDA in the near future.

○	Tranglo’s operating costs for the second quarter of 2025 were US$3.2 million, representing a slight decrease of 3% from US$3.3 million in the same period of 2024.
○	WalletKu’s operating costs were US$0.1 million for the second quarter of 2025, as compared to US$0.2 million for the same period of 2024.
○	Professional fees and director fees were US$0.7 million for the second quarter of 2025.

● Other income totaled US$0.5 million for the second quarter of 2025, mainly contributed by Tranglo.

● Net loss was US$5.0 million for the second quarter of 2025, primarily driven by the net loss of US$2.2 million incurred by headquarters and adjustments.

Management Comments

“Amid intensifying competition driven by the continued rise in digital remittance demand, we maintained healthy momentum in our remittance business, with TPV rising 6.9% year-over-year to US$1.46 billion and our overall take rate improving to 0.36% in the second quarter of 2025,” said Alex Kong, Founder and Executive Chairman of Currenc. “As we continue to deemphasize lower-value airtime services and reallocate resources, we are scaling our AI product offerings to deepen engagement with financial-institution clients, broaden our addressable market, and extend our remittance reach across additional high-volume corridors. Looking ahead, we will pair consistent remittance execution with an expanding AI portfolio to build a more diverse, healthier revenue mix and create sustainable long-term value for our shareholders.”

Ronnie Hui, Chief Executive Officer of Currenc, commented, “Our remittance business performed solidly in the second quarter, delivering an 8.3% year-over-year revenue increase that largely offset the revenue decline from our lower-margin airtime transfers business. Tranglo and WalletKu together delivered positive EBITDA of US$0.53 million, while disciplined execution kept Tranglo’s payout rate steady at 0.14%. We also enhanced cost management, reducing direct costs by 24.1% year over year and expanding our gross margin to 37.2%. Operating expenses increased to US$7.6 million, primarily due to a one-time incentive share expense of US$2.2 million related to the de-SPAC merger and a US$1.0 million investment in our AI initiatives. These new AI businesses are expected to generate incremental revenue and become EBITDA-accretive in the near term. Looking ahead, we will continue to streamline our cost structure, capitalize on our remittance strengths, and scale AI-driven growth to boost our profitability and shareholder value.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, it uses EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure as described below, to understand and evaluate its core operating performance. This non-GAAP financial measure, which may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies, is presented to enhance investors’ overall understanding of the Company’s financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

EBITDA is defined as net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Currenc believes that EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results. This non-GAAP financial measure eliminates the impact of items that Currenc does not consider indicative of the performance of its business. While Currenc believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful in evaluating its business, this information should be considered supplemental in nature and is not meant as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
