Ziff Davis完成12億美元出售Connectivity 次季持續經營錄虧損
AI 繁中摘要
Ziff Davis(納斯達克:ZD)公佈截至2026年6月30日止第二季度及上半年業績(10-Q)。期內最大事件為於6月17日完成向Accenture出售Connectivity業務,作價約12億美元現金,扣除出售現金後錄得稅前收益約8.606億美元,相關資產及業績已列為已終止經營業務。
💼 持續經營業務表現(未計Connectivity):
- 第二季總收入:2.867億美元,按年跌2.7%(2025年同期:2.948億美元)
- 上半年總收入:5.544億美元,按年跌2.3%(2025年同期:5.676億美元)
- 第二季持續經營淨虧損:5,215萬美元(去年同期錄得純利1,431萬美元)
- 上半年持續經營淨虧損:5,293萬美元(去年同期純利2,412萬美元)
📉 虧損主要受兩項非現金因素影響:
1. 商譽減值:5,484萬美元(健康與保健分部)
2. 內部使用軟件減值:約180萬美元
🔍 分部收入(上半年):
- 科技與購物:1.479億美元(跌9.0%)
- 遊戲與娛樂:8,738萬美元(增3.7%)
- 健康與保健:1.806億美元(跌2.5%)
- 網絡安全與MarTech:1.385億美元(增2.1%)
📊 資產負債及現金流:
- 截至6月30日現金及等價物:16.06億美元,較去年底5.74億美元大幅增加,主要來自出售Connectivity所得
- 上半年經營現金流:1.189億美元(去年同期:7,769萬美元)
- 上半年資本開支:6,813萬美元
- 期內回購約381萬股,涉資約1.686億美元
管理層表示,出售Connectivity旨在為股東最大化價值,所得款項將用於一般企業用途及資本配置,並須遵守現有債務證券條款。公司亦簽訂過渡服務協議,為Accenture提供最多12個月(可延長)的會計、稅務、財務、科技及人力資源等過渡服務。
對投資者而言,出售業務令公司資產負債表大幅強化,現金充裕,支持未來收購及回購;但持續經營業務收入錄得倒退,加上商譽減值,反映部分分部增長乏力。投資者需關注管理層如何運用這筆巨額現金,以及核心數碼媒體業務能否重拾增長動力。📈

ZIFF DAVIS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. Basis of Presentation and Overview
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Ziff Davis, Inc. and its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries (“Ziff Davis”, the “Company”, “our”, “us”, or “we”), were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), and all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
On June 17, 2026, the Company completed the sale of its Connectivity business (“Connectivity”) to Accenture Inc (“Accenture”). The assets and liabilities and results of operations of Connectivity have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Unless otherwise noted, all amounts, percentages, and any discussion in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect the results from continuing operations, except for the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, the Statements of Cash Flows, and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity, and related disclosures which are presented on a combined continuing and discontinued operations basis. Furthermore, upon reclassification of Connectivity as discontinued operations, the Company determined that Connectivity is no longer a reportable segment. Refer to Note 5 - Divestitures for further details.
The accompanying interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. All normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of these interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements were made.
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on February 24, 2026 and other filings with the SEC.
The results of operations for this interim period are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be expected for the full year or for any future period.

Long-lived assets
The Company accounts for long-lived assets, which include property and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets, and identifiable intangible assets with finite useful lives (subject to amortization), in accordance with the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, which requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to the expected undiscounted future net cash flows generated by the asset. If it is determined that the asset may not be recoverable, and if the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated fair value, an impairment charge is recognized to the extent of the difference. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company assessed the recoverability of certain of its assets in its Health & Wellness reportable segment following reductions in forecasted revenue and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) in one of its asset groups and recorded an impairment of its internal-use-software of approximately $1.8 million within ‘General, administrative, and other related costs’ in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. The fair value of the internal-use-software was estimated using the multi-period excess earnings method under the income approach, which utilizes assumptions including projected future revenue generated from the asset, projected expenses, and discount rate.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently issued applicable accounting pronouncements adopted
In July 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which provides all entities with the practical expedient when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenues from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). This update permits all entities to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the current accounts receivable and current contract assets. This update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been issued or made available for issuance. The Company adopted this update during the first quarter of 2026. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Recently issued applicable accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements. The amendments in this update are intended to enhance clarity and consistency in interim reporting disclosures. The update improves the navigability of interim reporting guidance, provides a comprehensive list of required disclosures, and includes a new disclosure principle for reporting material events occurring after the most recent annual period. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adoption of this update on our consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangible - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. T
