Factors to Note

Fiverr is likely to have benefited from the ongoing coronavirus pandemic in the second quarter. Its 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 work-from-home trend owing to the pandemic.

Growing digital transformation by businesses amid the pandemic might have remained a major positive.

Further, deepening focus on international expansion is expected to have aided its second-quarter performance.

Growing innovation, investment and proper execution of valuable tools are likely to have contributed well to quarterly results.

The company’s strong efforts to bolster customer engagement on its platform on the back of Subscriptions and Milestone products might get reflected in the soon to-be-reported quarter’s results.

Further, its vertical launches and strong focus on technological advancements are likely to have remained tailwinds.

Also, rising investment in brand and marketing is expected to have driven its momentum across large businesses, and thus might have added strength to quarterly results.

However, rising expenses in sales & marketing as well as research & development are anticipated to have affected the company’s margin expansion in the quarter under review.
