King has successfully experienced gaming diversification: out of the $604 million earned by the company in the first quarter of 2015, only $229 million fell on Candy Crush Saga.

MAU продуктов King достигло отметки в 533 млн пользователей

For comparison, a year ago, the candy blockbuster accounted for 67% of the company’s total revenue.

The company’s total revenues in the first quarter of this year were $36 million less than in the first quarter of last year, but it is important to note here that King spent almost $35 million more on advertising and marketing for the same period of 2014: $94 million this year versus $129 million last year.

Considering that over the past year King has increased such indicators as DAU, MAU and MUU, it is logical to assume that the company has learned to spend money on promotion much more efficiently.

The total DAU of King is 158 million in the first quarter of 2015.
