GoDaddy stock falls on weak Q2 results, CEO resignation

By Staff Correspondent |

GoDaddy Inc. (NYSE: GDDY) slipped to a loss in the second quarter due to higher costs and expenses as well as a loss on debt extinguishment. The bottom line missed analysts’ expectations. Further, the company appointed Aman Bhutani as its new CEO, effective September 4, 2019, replacing Scott Wagner, who is stepping down for health reasons.

A nine-year veteran of Expedia Group, Bhutani most recently served as the President of Brand Expedia Group. GoDaddy believed that Bhutani would be an exceptional leader after leading Brand Expedia to a healthy double-digit revenue growth.

Net loss was $12.6 million or $0.07 per share compared to a profit of $18.1 million or $0.11 per share a year ago. Revenue grew by 13% to $737.2 million helped by a 12% jump in total bookings. Customers increased by 5.5% and the average revenue per user rose by 7.8%.
