GMS
Gross merchandise sales (GMS) represents the value of items sold in the company’s marketplaces. In Q2, Etsy’s consolidated GMS totaled $3 billion, down 0.4% YoY due to pressure on discretionary spending, FX volatility and geopolitical events.
Etsy marketplace GMS dropped 6% YoY to $2.6 billion as it faced tough comparisons to last year. The Etsy marketplace acquired approx. 6 million new buyers during the quarter. Active buyers totaled 93.9 million at the end of Q2, up 3.8% YoY while active sellers stood at 7.4 million, up 41.5% YoY.
In Q2, mobile GMS made up approx. 66% of total GMS and non-US GMS made up 43% of total GMS. Etsy believes GMS growth in the second half of 2022 may continue to be impacted by factors such as inflation, foreign exchange volatility, retail businesses reopening, and geopolitical uncertainties, among others.
For the third quarter of 2022, Etsy expects GMS to range between $2.8-3 billion.
Profitability
Etsy’s net income in Q2 declined 25.6% to $73.1 million, or $0.51 per share, due to higher employee compensation-related expenses as headcount increased nearly 70% YoY. Adjusted EBITDA increased 16.7% to $162.7 million while adjusted EBITDA margin rose 200 basis points to 28%.
