Perfect Corp. reported strong revenue growth for Q4 and full-year 2025, driven by mobile app and web services subscriptions. However, Q4 net income saw a significant 94.2% decrease, primarily due to a $2.0 million goodwill impairment loss related to the Wannaby Inc. acquisition in January 2025. While the company highlighted that it would have achieved operating income without this non-cash charge, the impairment reflects a re-evaluation of the acquisition's value. Subscriber numbers declined due to a strategic price increase, and key customer numbers also decreased. The company forecasts approximately 10% revenue growth for 2026, indicating continued, albeit moderate, expansion. Investors should monitor the company's ability to return to consistent operating profitability and the performance of its B2B segment.
