Shares of Riskified Ltd. (RSKD) plummeted nearly 23% on Wednesday, despite the e-commerce fraud prevention company reporting better-than-expected second-quarter earnings and raising its full-year adjusted EBITDA guidance for the second consecutive quarter.
For the quarter ended June 30, Riskified reported non-GAAP earnings of $0.04 per share, beating analysts' estimates of $0.03 per share. Revenue rose 8.2% year-over-year to $78.73 million, also exceeding expectations of $78.5 million.
While Riskified slightly lowered its full-year 2024 revenue guidance to a range of $320 million to $325 million from the previous range of $323 million to $335 million, the company raised its adjusted EBITDA guidance for the second consecutive quarter. Riskified now expects full-year adjusted EBITDA between $13 million and $19 million, up from its previous guidance of $10 million to $16 million.
The stock initially surged around 5-6% in premarket trading following the earnings release but then sharply reversed course and plunged nearly 23% during the regular trading session. No specific negative news or events were reported that could directly explain the steep intraday decline.
