FVRR Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of online freelance marketplace Fiverr (NYSE:FVRR) jumped 24.3% in the morning session after the company reported a "beat and raise" quarter. Third-quarter earnings beat analysts' revenue, EBITDA, and EPS expectations. Efforts to improve value-added services paid off as take rate improved and the average spend per buyer rose 9% from the prior year. Notably, Fiverr introduced an AI-powered matching tool for buyers with complex job requirements. As a result, the number of buyers spending over $10K on Fiverr also increased. 

Given these improvements, the company was able to comfortably raise full-year revenue and EBITDA guidance, which put the business on track to meet and perhaps exceed the three-year targets on Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow provided in the previous quarter. Holding aside expectations, its number of buyers declined, which is a negative. Overall, though, this quarter was solid.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, it should be obvious by now that generative AI is going to have a huge impact on how large corporations do business. While Nvidia and AMD are trading close to all-time highs, we prefer a lesser-known (but still profitable) semiconductor stock benefitting from the rise of AI.
