Analysis · SPSC · Technology
SPS Commerce delivered Q2 revenue above the high end of guidance, with 6% growth and a 19% jump in Adjusted EBITDA. However, GAAP net income fell 65% to $6.9 million due to a $23.5 million loss on the divestiture of its 3P Revenue Recovery business. The company repurchased $51.2 million in shares during the quarter and provided full-year guidance that factors in the divestiture's revenue impact. The results show operational strength offset by a one-time strategic exit, while the buyback signals confidence in the underlying business.
