Overstock.com's (OSTK) Q3 Earnings Beat, Revenues Down Y/Y
Read MoreHide Full Article
Overstock.com reported third-quarter 2022 earnings of 13 cents per share, which beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 8.33% but declined 75.9% year over year.
Revenues of $460.3 million decreased 33.2% year over year. The top line lagged the consensus mark by 6.3%.
The revenues were hit by macroeconomic factors like rising interest rates, recession fears, supply chain disruptions and geopolitical tensions. The decline in demand in the Real Estate sector also served as a headwind for Overstock as consumers had reduced spending on home and home appliances in the reported quarter.
Active customers reached 5.791 million at the end of the third quarter of 2022, down 33.1% year over year.
As the Covid-19 restrictions have relaxed, customers have switched to their offline shopping behavior, which has caused a decline in Overstock’s customer base.
The average order value was $243 in the reported quarter, increasing 13.6% year over year. However, orders delivered were 1.894 million, down 41.1% year over year.
