Earnings Call Summary

Q4 2025

Earnings Call Sentiment|Positive
The call presented strong execution: accelerating GMV and revenue growth, meaningful advertising and AI-driven product momentum, robust Q4 results, substantial capital returns, strategic M&A (Depop) and exceeded sustainability targets. Offsetting risks include international macro weakness, trade-policy-driven cross-border pressure, margin pressure from scaling shipping/managed programs, accounting changes that will affect 2026 metrics, and near-term dilution from the Depop acquisition. On balance, the company conveyed sustained momentum, healthy guidance, and multiple growth levers despite several manageable headwinds.
Company Guidance
eBay guided Q1 2026 GMV of $21.5–$21.9 billion (FX‑neutral growth 10–12% YoY; ~450 bps FX tailwind to spot), revenue of $3.0–$3.05 billion (FX‑neutral +13–15%; ~310 bps FX tailwind) — implying roughly a 3‑point delta between FX‑neutral revenue and GMV — non‑GAAP operating income growth of 11–16% with margins of 28.3–29.2%, and non‑GAAP EPS of $1.53–$1.59 (+12–16% YoY). For full‑year 2026 (ex‑Depop) management plans FX‑neutral GMV growth similar to 2025, revenue in line to slightly ahead of GMV, non‑GAAP operating income growth of 8–10%, non‑GAAP tax rate assumed at 17.5%, and CapEx of 4–5% of revenue. Capital allocation targets roughly $2 billion of buybacks in 2026 (Board added $2 billion repurchase authorization on top of ~$800 million remaining) and a Q1 dividend of $0.31; in a normal year they target returning 90–100% of free cash flow. The pending $1.2 billion cash Depop deal (expected close Q2) is forecast to add 1–2 pts to 2026 FX‑neutral GMV, act as a low‑single‑digit headwind to near‑term operating income and EPS growth, and be accretive to non‑GAAP operating income by 2028; accounting changes (internal‑use software expensing and U.K. managed‑shipping net revenue recognition) were also disclosed.
Full-Year GMV and U.S. Strength
Gross merchandise volume grew nearly 6% to approximately $80 billion in 2025, with U.S. GMV growing nearly 10%, driven by broad-based strength across strategic priorities.
Recommerce and Strategic Mix
Recommerce (preowned and refurbished) comprised over 40% of GMV in 2025; focus categories, C2C and recommerce made up ~2/3 of the business (> $50 billion GMV) and that segment grew ~10%.
Revenue and Advertising Growth
Full-year revenue increased nearly 7% to $11.1 billion; advertising annual revenue reached approximately $2 billion and was a key driver of revenue outperformance.
Profitability and EPS Improvement
Non-GAAP operating income grew roughly 7% to nearly $3.1 billion for the year; non-GAAP EPS grew ~13% to $5.52, and the company returned about $3 billion to shareholders (repurchases + dividends).
Strong Q4 Results
Q4 GMV grew over 8% to $21.2 billion; revenue grew over 13% to $2.96 billion; non-GAAP operating income rose over 11% to $775 million; non-GAAP EPS was $1.41 (nearly 13% YoY).
AI and Product Innovation Impact
Next-gen AI-native magical listing reduced average listing time by >25%, increased new listing creation rate by >50%, produced double-digit increases in sold items and GMV per lister, and achieved >95% customer satisfaction. Trading-card AI scanning scanned over 15 million cards since launch.
eBay Live Traction
eBay Live is scaling rapidly with an annualized run-rate ~7x YoY, multi-country launches (Germany, Australia, France, Italy, Canada), and a single-event Black Friday record of ~ $2 million in sales.
Strategic Acquisitions to Grow C2C
Definitive agreement to acquire Depop for ~ $1.2 billion cash; Depop facilitated ~ $1 billion GMS in 2025 and grew ~60% YoY in the U.S.; expected to contribute 1-2 percentage points to 2026 GMV growth (with near-term modest dilution).
Environmental and Sustainability Targets Exceeded
Exceeded 2021-2025 impact goals: ~ $25 billion in cumulative positive economic impact (vs $22B target), prevented ~8.2M metric tons of CO2 (above 8M target) and diverted >360k metric tons of waste (vs 350k target).
Q1 and 2026 Financial Guidance
Q1 GMV guide $21.5B–$21.9B (10%-12% FX-neutral growth); Q1 revenue guide $3.00B–$3.05B (13%-15% FX-neutral); Q1 non-GAAP operating income growth 11%-16% and EPS $1.53–$1.59 (12%-16%). Full-year 2026 planning assumes GMV similar to 2025 and non-GAAP operating income growth 8%-10%.
