REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Aug. 11, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Poshmark, Inc. (NASDAQ: POSH), a leading social marketplace for new and secondhand style, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022. The Company posted net revenues of $89.1 million in the second quarter of 2022, which is a 9% year-over-year increase from the second quarter of 2021. Gross Merchandise Value (“GMV”) grew 8% year-over-year from the second quarter of 2021 to $483.5 million, up from $449.6 million in the same period last year.
“We reported a strong quarter despite a tough consumer environment due to our focus on execution and are pleased that our results exceeded our initial expectations. We remain focused on product innovation to give sellers better ways to market and merchandise their closets and new ways for buyers to discover trends and engage with our marketplace to drive conversion,” said Manish Chandra, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Poshmark. “This continues to keep Poshmark a top destination for fashion, as demonstrated by 14% trailing-twelve-months Active Buyer growth to a record 8.0 million in the second quarter.”
The power of Poshmark’s community combined with its robust marketplace platform makes selling and shopping simple, social, fun and sustainable. User engagement on Poshmark’s marketplace increased 70% year over year to a record 57.5 billion social interactions during the trailing-twelve-months ended June 30, 2022.

Second Quarter 2022 Business Highlights:
- We introduced Trends Guidelines in April, providing sellers with more ways to strengthen their trend-related listings and drive conversion.
- In May, we updated My Shoppers, our CRM, which now provides groupings of shoppers who liked items or who previously shopped a seller’s closet, making it easier for sellers to use the data to communicate or make offers to these groups of potential buyers.
- We introduced Closet QR codes in June, making it easy to scan, share, view, and engage with seller closets with a quick scan of your phone, which will be particularly useful with the return of in-person events, making it simple for sellers to market their closet to buyers and increase their number of followers.
- During the second quarter, we launched our integration with ChannelAdvisor, making it easy for high volume sellers to sell on Poshmark by providing these sellers with the ability to integrate our marketplace to synchronize product, inventory and order information with other ecommerce platforms.
- We rolled out Adyen as a new Payments Service Provider in Canada, which enables us to process payments locally in Canada (instead of cross-border to the US), which saves in-card network cross-border costs.

- Adjusted EBITDA range: ($9) million – ($11) million

Forward-Looking Statements:
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or our future financial or operating performance. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “may,” “will,” “shall,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern our expectations, strategy, plans, or intentions. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements that we make relating to our future financial performance, including our guidance on financial results for the third quarter of 2022.
Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Forward-looking statements involve substantial risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those that we expect. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: our ability to attract new users and convert users into active buyers and active sellers; our ability to maintain profitability; the impact of COVID-19 on our business and our consumers; the growth rates in the markets in which we compete; our ability to manage growth effectively; our ability to maintain the vibrancy of our community and trustworthiness of our marketplace; our dependence on sellers to provide a fulfilling experience to buyers; and our reliance on third-party shipping partners such as the United States Postal Service. These risks and uncertainties are more fully described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in our forward-looking statements.
The forward-looking statements made in this press release relate only to management’s beliefs and assumptions as of this date. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this press release or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this press release and the accompanying tables and the related earnings conference call contain certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Non-GAAP (loss) Income From Operations, and Free Cash Flow. Our management uses non-GAAP financial measures internally for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Non-GAAP financial measures are not recognized measures for financial statement presentation under GAAP and do not have standardized meanings, and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other public companies. Non-GAAP financial measures also have certain limitations. For example, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin have certain limitations in that it does not include the impact of certain expenses that are reflected in our consolidated statements of operations that are necessary to run our business. As such, non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or in isolation from, the corresponding measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. We encourage investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure, and to view the non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with their respective related GAAP financial measures. Please see the financial tables below for a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure we define as net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, excluding depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, interest income, and other expense, net, and provision for income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA margin is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA for a period by revenue for the same period. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results, 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 its financial and operational decision-making. We also believe that the exclusion of certain expenses in calculating Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin facilitates operating performance comparisons on a period-to-period basis and, in the case of exclusion of the impact of equity-based compensation and related taxes, excludes an item that we do not consider to be indicative of our core operating performance.
Non-GAAP (loss) income from operations is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated as GAAP (loss) income from operations plus stock-based compensation expense. We believe that adding back stock-based compensation expense provides a more meaningful comparison between our operating results from period to period.
Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated as net cash (used in) provided by operating activities less net cash used to purchase property and equipment. We believe free cash flow is an important indicator of our business performance, as it measures the amount of cash we generate. Accordingly, we believe that free cash flow provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management.
Operating Metrics:
GMV (gross merchandise value) is the total dollar value of transactions on our platform in a given period, prior to returns and cancellations, and excluding shipping and sales taxes. GMV is a measure of the total economic activity generated by our marketplace, and an indicator of the scale and growth of our marketplace and the health of our marketplace ecosystem.
Active buyers are unique users who have purchased at least one item on our platform in the trailing 12 months preceding the measurement date, regardless of returns and cancellations.

| (2) During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company identified prior period errors related to its recording of credit card chargeback losses from its payment processor which resulted in an overstatement of general and administrative expenses. Although management has concluded that such errors were not material to the previously issued financial statements, the Company has revised its 2021 unaudited quarterly financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial information included herein has been revised to reflect a reclassification of net revenue and marketing expenses of $0.1 million each, a decrease in general and administrative expense of $0.5 million, and a decrease in net loss of $0.5 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2021; and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021, a reclassification of net revenue and marketing expenses of $0.4 million each, a decrease in general and administrative expense of 1.0 million, an increase in provision for income taxes of $0.2 million, and a decrease in net loss of $0.8 million.
