1stdibs.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:DIBS), a leading online marketplace for luxury design products ("1stDibs" or the "Company"), today reported financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Second Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights

Net revenue was $23.3 million, an increase of 5% year-over-year.
Gross profit was $17.2 million, an increase of 8% year-over-year.
Gross margin was 73.9%, compared to 71.8% in the second quarter 2025.
GAAP net loss was $1.0 million compared to a net loss of $4.3 million in the second quarter 2025.
Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin was $1.3 million and 5.6%, respectively, compared to $(1.8) million and (7.9)%, respectively, in the second quarter 2025.
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $67.7 million as of June 30, 2026.

"The second quarter was a proof point for our product, our platform, and our plan," said David Rosenblatt, 1stDibs CEO. "GMV of $96.0 million came in above the high end of guidance, up 7%, our strongest growth rate since late 2024. We believe we gained market share in spite of having reduced Sales and Marketing spend, a combination that tells us our product roadmap is driving structural improvement in our competitive position."

"The second quarter demonstrated exactly what our reengineered cost structure was designed to do," said Tom Etergino, 1stDibs Chief Financial Officer. "GMV and revenue both beat the high end of guidance, and Adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 6%, also well above our guidance range, improved over 13 percentage points versus a year ago. The lower cost structure we built from 2022 through 2025 is converting revenue upside directly into margin expansion."

Other Recent Business Highlights and Second Quarter Key Operating Metrics

Gross Merchandise Value ("GMV") was $96.0 million, an increase of 7% year-over-year.
Number of Orders was approximately 32K, a decrease of 4% year-over-year.
Active Buyers was approximately 58K, a decrease of 10% year-over-year.

Financial Guidance and Outlook

The Company’s third quarter 2026 guidance is below.

	Q3 2026 Guidance
GMV	$89.0 million - $94.0 million
Net revenue	$22.0 million - $22.9 million
Adjusted EBITDA margin (non-GAAP)	(1%) - 2%

Actual results may differ materially from our Financial Guidance and Outlook as a result of, among other things, the factors described under "Forward-Looking Statements" below.

A GAAP reconciliation to our non-GAAP guidance measure (adjusted EBITDA) is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the potential variability and uncertainty of expenses that may be incurred in the future. Stock-based compensation expense is impacted by the timing of employee stock transactions, the future fair market value of our common stock, and our future hiring and retention needs, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to change. We have provided a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the financial statement tables for our historical non-GAAP financial results included in this press release.

Key Operating Metrics Definitions

Gross Merchandise Value

We define Gross Merchandise Value ("GMV") as the total dollar value from items sold by our sellers through 1stDibs in a given month, minus cancellations within that month, and excluding shipping and applicable taxes. GMV includes all sales reported to us by our sellers, whether transacted through the 1stDibs marketplace or reported as an offline sale. We view GMV as a measure of the total economic activity generated by our online marketplace, and as an indicator of the scale and growth of our online marketplace and the health of our ecosystem. Our historical performance for GMV may not be indicative of future performance in GMV.

Number of Orders

We define Number of Orders as the total number of orders placed or reported through the 1stDibs marketplace in a given month, minus cancellations within that month. Our historical performance for Number of Orders may not be indicative of future performance in Number of Orders.

Active Buyers

We define Active Buyers as buyers who have made at least one purchase through our online marketplace during the 12 months ended on the last day of the period presented, net of cancellations. A buyer is identified by a unique email address; thus an Active Buyer could have more than one account if they were to use a separate unique email address to set up each account. We believe this metric reflects scale, engagement and brand awareness, and our ability to convert user activity on our online marketplace into transactions. Our historical performance for Active Buyers may not be indicative of future performance in new Active Buyers.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

In this press release, we provide Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure that represents our net loss adjusted to exclude: (1) depreciation and amortization; (2) stock-based compensation expense; (3) other income, net; (4) provision for income taxes; (5) restructuring expenses; and (6) strategic alternative expenses. We also provide Adjusted EBITDA Margin, a non-GAAP financial measure that presents Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue. Below is a reconciliation of net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to Adjusted EBITDA.

We have included Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which are non-GAAP financial measures, because they are key measures used by our management team to help us to assess our operating performance and the operating leverage in our business. We also use these measures to analyze our financial results, establish budgets and operational goals for managing our business, and make strategic decisions. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin help identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the income and expenses that we exclude from Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin. Accordingly, we believe that these metrics provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations, enhances the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, and allows for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics used by our management in their financial and operational decision-making. We also believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our core business and results of operations over multiple periods with other companies in our industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors, and to analyze our operating performance.

The non-GAAP financial measures presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in the way that these measures are calculated. The non-GAAP financial measures presented should not be considered as the sole measure of our performance and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures have certain limitations in that they do not include the impact of certain expenses that are reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Accordingly, these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as supplemental in nature, and are not intended, and should not be construed, as a substitute for the related financial information calculated in accordance with GAAP. These limitations of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin include the following:

The exclusion of certain recurring, non-cash charges, such as depreciation and amortization of property and equipment. While these are non-cash charges, we may need to replace the assets being depreciated in the future and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash requirements for these replacements or new capital expenditure requirements;
The exclusion of stock-based compensation expense, which has been a significant recurring expense and will continue to constitute a significant recurring expense for the foreseeable future, as equity awards are expected to continue to be an important component of our compensation strategy;
The exclusion of other income, net, which includes interest income related to our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments and realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency exchange; and
The exclusion of discrete restructuring expenses such as severance and benefit costs from reductions in force and reorganizations that are fundamentally different in strategic nature from ongoing initiatives. We believe exclusion of these items facilitates a more consistent comparison of operating performance over time because they are distinct from ongoing operational costs.

Because of these limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin alongside other financial performance measures, including net loss and our other GAAP results.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as net cash from operating activities less purchases of property and equipment. We use free cash flow as a supplemental measure of liquidity and to evaluate our ability to generate cash from operations that can be used for strategic initiatives and working capital requirements.

We believe that free cash flow is an important financial measure for use in evaluating our financial performance. Free cash flow has limitations as it omits certain components of the consolidated statements of cash flows and does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. Other companies may calculate free cash flow differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure. As a result of these limitations, free cash flow should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, net cash from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity and our other GAAP results.

The information in the tables below sets forth the non-GAAP financial measures along with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

^{(1) - As of June 30, 2026, a change to our payment processor agreement resulted in a reclassification of approximately $5.9 million from cash and cash equivalents to receivables from payment processors and seller accounts, which is recorded in other current assets, and negatively impacted free cash flow.}
