The business benefited from outperformance in Latin America and Rest of World, led by Indonesia, Brazil, and Mexico. Excluding this event, we believe MAUs would have reached 419 million in Q1, with growth exceeding our expectations by approximately 1 million users. Following the one month anniversary of the outage in April, we saw a reversal of the approximate 3 million MAU benefit. As a result, we believe certain affected users created new accounts to log back in, resulting in approximately 3 million additional MAUs in the quarter. During March, there was a brief service outage that caused users to be involuntarily logged out of Spotify. Total MAUs grew 19% Y/Y to 422 million in the quarter, up from 406 million last quarter and above our guidance by 4 million. Premium ARPU grew 6% Y/Y in Q1 and 3% Y/Y on a constant currency basisĪnnounced agreement with Google for User Choice Billing and a long-term partnership agreement with FC Barcelona Premium Subscribers grew 15% Y/Y to 182 million (inclusive of approximately 1.5 million disconnects from the wind-down of our Russian operations) MAUs grew 19% Y/Y to 422 million or 419 million excluding a one-time benefit of 3 million MAUs Overall, we are very pleased with the performance of the business and remain highly encouraged by the traction we are seeing. Excluding the impact of our exit from Russia, subscriber growth exceeded expectations as well. Nearly all of our key metrics surpassed guidance, led by MAU outperformance, healthy revenue growth, and better Gross Margin. Our business exhibited strength and resiliency in Q1.
