Did EBAY Beat Earnings? Q2 2025 Results

eBay delivered a strong second quarter, beating Wall Street expectations on both the top and bottom lines as momentum in advertising and gross merchandise volume helped drive results ahead of forecasts. Revenue climbed 6.1% year-over-year to $2.73 billion, clearing the $2.64 billion consensus estimate by 3.38%, while non-GAAP EPS of $1.37 topped the $1.30 estimate by 5.63%, with non-GAAP earnings per share rising 16% from the prior-year period. The standout driver was advertising, where first-party ad revenue surged 19% to $455 million, pushing total ad revenue to $482 million, or roughly 2.5% of the $19.51 billion in gross merchandise volume recorded in the quarter. Strategic investments also added color, including the launch of an AI shopping agent and expanded seller financing tools through Open Banking integrations, signaling eBay's push to deepen platform utility. Looking ahead, management guided Q3 revenue of $2.69 billion to $2.74 billion and non-GAAP EPS of $1.29 to $1.34, pointing to continued steady, if measured, growth.
