Newegg Announces First Half 2025 Results
BUSINESS WIRE)--Newegg Commerce, Inc. (NASDAQ: NEGG) (the 'Company' or 'Newegg'), a leading global technology e-commerce retailer, today announced results for the six months ended June 30, 2025. 'Newegg experienced strong year-over-year growth in the first half of 2025, driven primarily by increased demand for GPUs and other core PC components, including the highly successful launch of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 Series and AMD Radeon RX 9000 Series graphics cards, and AMD Ryzen 9000X3D Series CPUs,' said Newegg Chief Executive Officer Anthony Chow. 'These new product launches further boosted organic traffic and spurred robust cross-category purchasing, driving both topline growth and improved gross margins. We also benefited from pull-forward spending due to tariff uncertainty while simultaneously minimizing tariff impact on supply chain and customer experience through close collaboration with our key partners and suppliers. I am pleased with our results, and we will continue to be agile and opportunistic throughout the remainder of the year as we aim to deliver a superior experience for our loyal Newegg customers.' Newegg Interim Chief Financial Officer Christina Ching added, 'In the first half of 2025, Newegg demonstrated significant growth driven by robust sales of PC components, particularly boosted by positive momentum from the new GPU and CPU product launches. This strong consumer demand led to a 14% year-over-year increase in GMV and a 13% rise in net sales. Along with SG&A expense reductions following various strategic cost optimization measures throughout 2024 and 2025, our adjusted EBITDA improved substantially to $11.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, up from a $7.3 million loss for the same period in 2024. We have also maintained focus on our cash balance and working capital. We also recently launched an 'at the market' (ATM) offering program, which we intend to use for general corporate purposes and working capital. As we move forward, our focus remains on maximizing market opportunities while navigating the ongoing tariff environment and other macroeconomic factors.' 2025 First Half Financial Highlights Net sales increased 12.6% to $695.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $618.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. GMV (defined below) increased 13.7% to $849.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $746.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Gross profit increased 26.5% to $79.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $63.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Net loss was $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $25.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Adjusted EBITDA (defined below) was $11.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $18.6 million, compared to negative $7.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. 2025 First Half Operational Metrics Average order value was $467 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $401 for same period in the prior year. Active customers, defined as unique customer IDs with at least one item purchased on Newegg platforms in the past six months, totaled approximately 1.13 million as of June 30, 2025, compared to 1.09 million for the same period in the prior year. Repeat purchase rate, which is the percentage of active customers who made at least two purchases on Newegg platforms during the past six months, was 25.2% as of June 30, 2025, compared to 23.0% for the same period in the prior year. Mr. Chow added, 'We are excited for several launches in the second half, including the expansion of our ABS line of PCs to high-performance workstations and tower servers, powered by industry-leading NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell graphic cards, helping businesses to explore and advance generative, agentic and physical AI. We will also be debuting our Gamer Community and Gamer Zone, which underscore our commitment to growing and supporting the gaming ecosystem, giving back to the very community that has fueled our success. We remain energized by our momentum, steadfast in optimizing our supply chain strategies to minimize any macroeconomic impacts, and confident in what lies ahead. ' About Newegg Newegg Commerce, Inc. (NASDAQ: NEGG), founded in 2001 and based in Diamond Bar, California, near Los Angeles, is a leading global online retailer for PC hardware, consumer electronics, gaming peripherals, home appliances, automotive and lifestyle technology.

Non-GAAP Financial Information This press release presents certain 'non-GAAP' financial measures. The components of these non-GAAP measures are computed by using amounts that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ('GAAP'). A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release to their nearest comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the schedules attached hereto. GMV The Company defines gross merchandise value, or GMV, as the total dollar value of products sold on its websites and third-party marketplace platforms, directly to customers and by its Marketplace sellers through Newegg Marketplace, net of returns, discounts, taxes, and cancellations. GMV also includes the services fees charged through its Newegg Partner Services in rendering services for its third-party logistics, shipped-by-Newegg, and media ad services, as well as the sales made by its Asia subsidiaries. Newegg believes that GMV helps it assess and analyze changes in revenues, and if reviewed in conjunction with net sales and other GAAP financial measures, can provide more information in evaluating its current performance and in assessing its future performance. Adjusted EBITDA Newegg calculates Adjusted EBITDA as net income/loss, excluding stock-based compensation expense, interest income, net, income tax (benefit) provision, depreciation and amortization expense, gain/loss from sales of fixed assets, gain/loss from sales of investment, and gain/loss from warrants liabilities. Newegg believes that exclusion of certain expenses in calculating Adjusted EBITDA facilitates operating performance comparisons on a period-to-period basis and excludes items that it does not consider to be indicative of its core operating performance. Accordingly, Newegg believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results in the same manner as its management and board of directors. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of Newegg's results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are: although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements; Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; Adjusted EBITDA does not consider the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation; Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to Newegg; and other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, operating profit and Newegg's other GAAP results.
