Diluted net loss per share also improved from $(0.24) to $(0.15). Notably, Snap's Adjusted EBITDA turned positive at $55.0 million, compared to a negative $38.5 million in the previous year. Daily Active Users (DAUs) grew by 9% to 432 million, and Average Revenue per User (ARPU) increased slightly from $2.69 to $2.86.
