Factors to Note

Fiverr’s platform — which connects people offering logo, poster and brochure designing, photoshop editing, content marketing, web analytics, translation and other services with people outsourcing such work to freelancers — might have benefited from the increasing remote working trend amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Further, its strong focus on product and technology enhancements is expected to get reflected in the to-be-reported quarter’s results.

Also, the company’s marketing efficiency — courtesy of positive trends in both organic and paid channels — may have contributed to its performance in the quarter to be reported.

Moreover, the company’s focus on international expansion might have acted as a tailwind in the to-be-reported quarter. It expanded its global marketplace to two new languages —French and Spanish.

Strong momentum in performance marketing is also expected to have aided the company in acquiring new buyers in the to-be-reported quarter.

During the quarter, the company expanded into new international markets, namely, Brazil and Mexico. It has also offered local payment options for buyers in the form of Boleto and Reis.

These efforts are expected to have increased brand awareness and therebythe customer base of the company.

Furthermore, Fiverr’s accelerated Artificial Intelligence efforts through personalization and customer support might have driven its fourth-quarter performance.

For the fourth quarter, the company expects revenues in the range of $52.4-$53.4 million, indicating year-over-year growth of 77-81%.
