Regulatory and financial matters
Company disclosures reported a decline in gross margin from 56 percent in 2021 to 38 percent in 2022,[20] citing campaign mix and the impact of the Gambit acquisition. The company's MD&A notes that "gross margin" is a non-GAAP metric as defined by Snipp. In 2024, Snipp reported that results were affected by the sunsetting of a single contract inherited with Gambit, and later reported gross margins above 50% in Q1 2024 as margins improved.[21]
