eBay Q2 Revenue Jumps 15% to $3.1B, EPS Beats as Ad Sales Surge 25%
EBAY sits 44% above its 52-week low of $78.03.
Summary
eBay delivered a strong Q2, with revenue rising 15% to $3.10 billion, beating the $3.02 billion consensus. Adjusted EPS of $1.60 also topped estimates of $1.51. First-party advertising revenue surged 25% to $570 million, driving the beat. GMV reached $22.40 billion, reflecting category leadership and AI-powered listing tools. The company completed the $1.4 billion Depop acquisition and returned $448 million to shareholders. Q3 guidance calls for revenue of $3.07-$3.12 billion, GMV of $22.0-$22.4 billion, and adjusted EPS of $1.36-$1.42. This follows a turbulent period of takeover rejection and activist pressure from GameStop, making the operational outperformance a key signal of standalone strength. The stock, which closed at $109.61 on August 4, is likely to react positively to the broad-based beat and raised outlook.
