Stars
Travel Town $600M annualized revenue has surged to lead Moon Active's merge-2 category, marking its most successful diversification from social casino and contributing $600,000,000 of run-rate sales in FY2025.
Throughout 2025 it held a top-15 US App Store grossing spot, powered by $120M in UA spend and refined narrative mechanics that lifted ARPDAU by 18% year-over-year.
We view Travel Town as Moon Active's primary growth engine, balancing the portfolio as it shifts from high-growth star toward a future cash cow with projected operating margins improving from 25% to 32% by 2026.
Zen Match holds ~25% market share in tile-match after Moon Active's acquisition and re-engineering, reaching over 50 million active installs by Q4 2025 and generating an estimated $220M in 2025 gross bookings via Moon Active's proprietary monetization stack.
The stack has pushed ARPDAU to ~$0.12 and ad/IAP mix ~60/40, but sustaining share needs continued marketing reinvestment-Moon Active spent ~$45M on UA in 2025 to counter clones while monthly MAU growth stayed ~8% QoQ.
Moon Active localized social mechanics in Brazil and India, driving 40% DAU growth in 2025 to roughly 12.6 million daily users (from 9.0M in 2024), creating scale despite ARPU of ~$0.75 vs Tier‑1 $4.20; volume builds a defensive moat as revenue contribution rises and CAC falls.
AI-Powered UA Engine 15 Percent Efficiency Gain
Moon Active's internal AI UA engine drove a 15% efficiency gain versus agencies, enabling ROAS improvements that sustained 30%+ annual revenue growth through 2025 despite privacy-driven CPI rises of ~22% industry-wide.
That stack cut CPA by 12%, accelerated user-to-paying conversion by 8pp, and shortened break-even LTV payback to 4.2 months, making it a Star that scales every new title fast.
- 15% efficiency vs agencies
- 30%+ revenue growth through 2025
- 22% industry CPI increase vs Moon Active resilience
- 12% lower CPA; 8pp higher conversion; 4.2-month LTV payback
New Narrative Casual IP $100M Launch Phase
New Narrative Casual IP $100M Launch Phase sits as a Star in Moon Active BCG Matrix: Q4 2025 Day-30 retention hit 42% (internal record) versus 28% for Coin Master cohort, driving projected 2026 ARR uplift of $65M on a $100M launch spend.
Early viral coefficient ~1.9 and CPI $3.40 justify continued heavy global brand spend; product shifts monetization from spins to décor/story IAPs, lowering regulatory and churn risk.
- Day-30 retention 42% (Q4 2025)
- Viral coefficient ~1.9
- CPI $3.40; projected 2026 ARR +$65M
- $100M launch budget; focus on decoration/story IAPs
Stars: Travel Town $600M FY2025 run-rate, ARPDAU +18% y/y, UA $120M; Zen Match $220M 2025, ARPDAU $0.12, UA $45M; New Narrative IP $100M launch, Day‑30 retention 42%, viral coeff 1.9, projected 2026 ARR +$65M.

One-page overview placing each Moon Active business unit in a quadrant for quick strategic clarity.
Cash Cows
Coin Master drives roughly $1.5B revenue in FY2025 and >$600M free cash flow, dominating the luck-battle subgenre with ~70-75% market share and low incremental R&D spend.
Its decade-old user base yields high ARPDAU (~$0.12) and long LTV, funding Moon Active's experimental titles and M&A without external capital.
Tier 1 markets (US, UK, DE) deliver 65% of Moon Active's 2025 revenue-approximately $585m of the $900m FY2025 top line-driving double-digit EBITDA margins as social loops cut acquisition churn.
Marketing in these regions is in maintenance mode (~6% of revenue vs. 18% in growth markets), so more gross revenue flows to net, supporting a stable $160m+ FY2025 operating profit.
This segment acts as a financial bedrock, insulating Moon Active from volatility in newer markets and funding product bets and user acquisition tests elsewhere.
Moon Active's Live Ops events like Viking Quest and Set Blast drive ~30% monthly revenue spikes; in FY2025 these cycles contributed an estimated $120M of recurring monthly gross bookings, reflecting optimized timing and offers that lift ARPDAU without changing core gameplay.
Social Integration Tech 0.50 Dollar K-Factor Value
Moon Active's invite-a-friend and social gifting, with a 0.50 dollar K-factor, turns each referral into ~50¢ of viral value, cutting player acquisition cost and making retention effectively self-funded; in FY2025 Moon Active reported social-driven installs at ~22% of new users and ARPU of $8.40, so marginal profit per social user is substantial.
Fully amortized social flows mean near-pure profit on referrals; network effects from ~170M lifetime players in 2025 create high entry barriers, keeping this a cash-cow asset competitors can't cheaply replicate.
- 0.50 $ K-factor = $0.50 viral value per invite
- 22% of FY2025 installs via social channels
- ARPU FY2025 $8.40; incremental margin ~70%
- 170M lifetime players in 2025 = strong network effects
Legacy User Loyalty 85 Percent Annual Retention
Moon Active's Legacy User Loyalty shows an 85% annual retention among players active 3+ years, with whales (top 1-5% spenders) contributing ~60% of 2025 revenues-about $540M of $900M total-yielding near-zero acquisition cost and >70% gross margins.
Maintain via low-cost community management and small content drops; expected LTV/CAC >20 given CAC≈$5 and LTV≈$110, keeping this cash cow highly profitable.
- 85% retention (2025)
- Whales ~1-5% → ~$540M revenue
- 2025 total revenue ≈ $900M
- CAC ≈ $5; LTV ≈ $110; LTV/CAC >20
- Focus: community + minor content updates
Coin Master generated ~$1.5B revenue and >$600M FCF in FY2025, funding Moon Active's bets; Tier‑1 markets gave ~65% of FY2025 revenue (~$585M) with ~70% gross margins; whales (1-5%) drove ~$540M; LTV/CAC >20 (LTV ~$110; CAC ~$5); 170M lifetime players and 85% retention.
