The Zacks Consensus Estimate for loss has widened by 18% to 82 cents per share over the past 30 days. Sea Limited reported a loss of 62 cents per share in the year-ago quarter.
The consensus mark for revenues is currently pegged at $2.70 billion, indicating 28.6% growth from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure.
The company’s earnings missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in three of the trailing four quarters, the earnings surprise being -53.24%.
Let’s see how things have shaped up prior to this announcement.
Factors at Play for Q1 Results
Sea Limited’s digital entertainment (Garena) and e-commerce businesses are expected to have continued to capitalize on changing consumer behavior in the first quarter.
Garena is likely to have benefited from the continued popularity of Free Fire.
The company’s e-commerce segment is likely to have gained traction from a strong uptick in Shopee, its online shopping platform. Additionally, SeaMoney’s strengthening integration with Shopee is expected to have aided Sea’s digital financial services business.
However, exit from India and France are expected to have hurt Shopee’s top-line growth.
Higher expenses related to the expansion of e-commerce services and continued efforts to integrate the company’s mobile wallet services with the Shopee platform across different markets are expected to have negatively impacted profitability in the to-be-reported quarter.
