Liquidity Services (LQDT) saw its stock plummet 7.48% in pre-market trading on Thursday, despite reporting positive second-quarter financial results for fiscal year 2025. The sharp decline suggests that investors may be focusing on the company's forward-looking guidance rather than its past performance.
For Q2, Liquidity Services reported a net income of $7.1 million and an adjusted net income of $10 million. The company's revenue reached $116.4 million, with a Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) of $367.4 million. Additionally, adjusted EBITDA came in at $12.2 million, indicating solid operational performance for the quarter.
However, the company's outlook for the third quarter of fiscal year 2025 might be causing concern among investors. Liquidity Services projected GAAP net income for Q3-FY25 to be between $6.0 million and $9.0 million, with non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS guidance ranging from $0.27 to $0.36. While the company stated that it does not anticipate significant near-term disruptions from global economic uncertainties, the market's reaction suggests that investors may have been expecting more robust growth or are worried about potential headwinds in the coming quarters.
