Analysis · WIX · Technology
Wix delivered a strong Q2 with revenue of $563M, beating the $554M consensus, and non-GAAP EPS of $1.39, well above the $1.02 estimate. The standout is Base44's proprietary LLM 'Base 1,' which is expected to slash AI compute costs and lift Base44's non-GAAP gross margin to ~60% in the second half from near-zero entering the year. This unit-economic improvement underpins the maintained full-year outlook and signals a path to better profitability even as the company reinvests savings into growth. The GAAP net loss of $76.4M reflects heavy R&D and S&M spending, but the market is likely to focus on the margin inflection story.
