LightInTheBox Q2 Revenue Falls 4% as Long-Tail Products Phased Out
LITB has more than doubled off its 52-week low of $1.16.
Summary
LightInTheBox reported Q2 revenue of $56.80 million, down 4% year-over-year, as the company deliberately phased out long-tail products to optimize its product mix. Net income came in at $1.60 million and adjusted EBITDA at $1.90 million, both lower than the prior year but still profitable. Gross margin held at 66.10%, while operating expenses were $35.50 million. The company also named a new CFO and extended its share buyback program. This follows the $5.49 million PIPE financing completed earlier this month and the CEO's $1.09 million participation, signaling continued insider support. The revenue decline is a strategic trade-off, but the market will focus on whether the product mix shift can stabilize growth. The company cited geopolitical disruptions, higher logistics costs, and FX headwinds as ongoing challenges.
