Positive
  • Revenue growth of 29% year-over-year, exceeding high-end of guidance
  • Marketplace and Service Revenue increased 32% year-over-year
  • Marketplace Units grew 22% year-over-year
  • Achieved non-GAAP net income of $3 million, compared to a loss in Q2 2023
  • Adjusted EBITDA improved to $7 million from -$4 million in Q2 2023
  • Full-year 2024 guidance projects 28-30% revenue growth
Negative
  • GAAP net loss of $17 million in Q2 2024
  • Marketplace GMV decreased 1% year-over-year
  • Projected GAAP net loss of $80-$85 million for full-year 2024
  • Dealer wholesale volumes remain below historical levels

ACV's Q2 2024 results demonstrate strong performance, with revenue of $161 million exceeding guidance and growing 29% YoY. The company's Marketplace and Service Revenue saw an impressive 32% increase. However, GAAP net loss widened slightly to $17 million.

Notably, ACV achieved non-GAAP profitability with $3 million in net income and $7 million in Adjusted EBITDA, showing improved operational efficiency. The company's guidance for FY2024 projects continued strong growth, with revenue expected to reach $615-625 million, representing 28-30% YoY growth.

While dealer wholesale volumes remain below historical levels, ACV's market share gains and broadening suite of dealer solutions position it well for future growth as the market recovers.

ACV's Q2 results reflect resilience in a challenging auto market. Despite soft retail sales and used vehicle inventory shortages, ACV managed to increase Marketplace Units by 22% YoY to 186,526. This suggests significant market share gains, as the overall market remains subdued.

The company's guidance indicates confidence in market recovery, particularly in H2 2024. Key factors include:

  • Improving new-vehicle supply
  • Increasing retail sales
  • Expected normalization of conversion rates and wholesale price depreciation
ACV's ability to outpace expense growth by 10% points demonstrates scalability. However, investors should monitor the ongoing recovery of dealer wholesale volumes, as this remains important for ACV's long-term growth trajectory.

ACV's Q2 performance underscores the strength of its digital marketplace model in the automotive sector. The 32% YoY growth in Marketplace and Service Revenue indicates strong adoption of ACV's technology platform among dealers.

Key technological aspects to note:

  • Broadening suite of dealer solutions: Suggests ongoing innovation and feature expansion
  • Commercial wholesale strategy: Indicates potential for new revenue streams and market expansion
  • Scalable business model: Evident from improving margins and Adjusted EBITDA
The company's ability to deliver growth while improving profitability metrics demonstrates the inherent leverage in its technology-driven business model. As the auto market recovers, ACV's digital platform is well-positioned to capture increased transaction volumes efficiently.

Revenue Growth of 29% and Exceeds the High-End of Guidance

  • Second quarter revenue of $161 million
  • Second quarter GAAP net income (loss) of ($17) million
  • Second quarter non-GAAP net income of $3 million
  • Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $7 million
  • Expects 2024 revenue of $615 million to $625 million, growth of 28% to 30% YoY, GAAP net income (loss) of ($85) million to ($80) million and Adjusted EBITDA of $21 million to $25 million

BUFFALO, N.Y., Aug. 07, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ACV (Nasdaq: ACVA), a leading digital automotive marketplace and data services partner for dealers and commercial clients, today reported results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

“We are very pleased with our second quarter results, delivering revenue above the high-end of our guidance range, continued margin expansion, and strong sequential growth in Adjusted EBITDA,” said George Chamoun, CEO of ACV.

“Our strong market position resulted in continued share gains and accelerated revenue growth in the quarter. The adoption of our growing suite of dealer solutions has continued to broaden and we have executed initiatives to support our commercial wholesale strategy. We achieved this while further increasing our margins,” continued Chamoun.

“Dealer wholesale volumes remained below historical levels due to a combination of soft retail sales and the ongoing shortage of used vehicle inventory. However, there were some early signs of improvement in the broader automotive ecosystem, and we believe the dealer wholesale market will continue to recover in the back-half of 2024. We believe ACV remains well positioned to deliver sustainable growth as end-markets further recover, and we execute on our emerging commercial wholesale strategy, while also continuing to scale our business model,” concluded Chamoun.

Information About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

ACV provides supplemental non-GAAP financial measures to its financial results. We use these non-GAAP financial measures, and we believe that they assist our investors to make period-to-period comparisons of our operating performance because they provide a view of our operating results without items that are not, in our view, indicative of our operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an alternative to GAAP results as the items excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures often have a material impact on our operating results, certain of those items are recurring, and others often recur. Management uses, and investors should consider, our non-GAAP financial measures only in conjunction with our GAAP results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is not presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, when taken together with our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our operating performance and facilitates internal comparisons of our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our business, results of operations or outlook. In particular, we believe that the use of Adjusted EBITDA is helpful to our investors as it is a measure used by management in assessing the health of our business, determining incentive compensation and evaluating our operating performance, as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss, adjusted to exclude: depreciation and amortization; stock-based compensation expense; interest (income) expense; provision for income taxes; and other one-time non-recurring items, when applicable, such as acquisition-related and restructuring expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Some of these limitations include that (1) it does not properly reflect capital commitments to be paid in the future; (2) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the underlying assets may need to be replaced and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect these capital expenditures; (3) it does not consider the impact of stock-based compensation expense, (4) it does not reflect other non-operating income and expenses, including interest income and expense, (5) it does not consider the impact of any contingent consideration liability valuation adjustments, (6) it does not reflect tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us, and (7) it does not reflect other one-time, non-recurring items, when applicable, such as acquisition-related and restructuring expenses. In addition, our use of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these limitations, when evaluating our performance, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial measures, including our net loss and other results stated in accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP net income (loss), a financial measure that is not presented in accordance with GAAP, provides investors with additional useful information to measure operating performance and current and future liquidity when taken together with our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. By providing this information, we believe management and the users of the financial statements are better able to understand the financial results of what we consider to be our continuing operations.

We define non-GAAP net income (loss) as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude: stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and other one-time, non-recurring items, when applicable, such as acquisition-related and restructuring expenses.

In the calculation of non-GAAP net income (loss), we exclude stock-based compensation expense because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of equity instruments that can impact our non-cash expense. We believe that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude stock-based compensation expense allows for more meaningful comparisons between our operating results from period to period.

We exclude amortization of acquired intangible assets from the calculation of non-GAAP net income (loss). We believe that excluding the impact of amortization of acquired intangible assets allows for more meaningful comparisons between operating results from period to period as the underlying intangible assets are valued at the time of acquisition and are amortized over several years after the acquisition.

We exclude contingent consideration liability valuation adjustments associated with the purchase consideration of transactions accounted for as business combinations. We also exclude certain other one-time, non-recurring items, when applicable, such as acquisition-related and restructuring expenses, because we do not consider such amounts to be part of our ongoing operations nor are they comparable to prior period nor predictive of future results.

Non-GAAP net income (loss) is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Some of these limitations include that: (1) it does not consider the impact of stock-based compensation expense; (2) although amortization is a non-cash charge, the underlying assets may need to be replaced and non-GAAP net income (loss) does not reflect these capital expenditures; (3) it does not consider the impact of any contingent consideration liability valuation adjustments; and (4) it does not consider the impact of other one-time charges, such as acquisition-related and restructuring expenses, which could be material to the results of our operations. In addition, our use of non-GAAP net income (loss) may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate non-GAAP net income (loss) in the same manner, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these limitations, when evaluating our performance, you should consider non-GAAP net income (loss) alongside other financial measures, including our net loss other results stated in accordance with GAAP.

Information About Operating and Financial Metrics

We regularly monitor the following operating and financial metrics in order to measure our current performance and estimate our future performance. Our key operating and financial metrics may be calculated in a manner different than similar business metrics used by other companies.

Operating and Financial Metrics

Marketplace GMV  Marketplace GMV is primarily driven by the volume and dollar value of Marketplace Unit transactions. We believe that Marketplace GMV acts as an indicator of our success, signaling satisfaction of dealers and buyers, and the health, scale, and growth of our business. We define Marketplace GMV as the total dollar value of vehicles transacted within the applicable period, excluding any auction and ancillary fees.

Marketplace Units  Marketplace Units is a key indicator of our potential for growth in Marketplace GMV and revenue. It demonstrates the overall engagement of our customers and our market share of wholesale transactions in the United States. We define Marketplace Units as the number of vehicles transacted within the applicable period. Marketplace Units transacted includes any vehicle that successfully reaches sold status, even if the auction is subsequently unwound, meaning the buyer or seller does not complete the transaction. These instances have been immaterial to date. Marketplace Units excludes vehicles that were inspected by ACV, but not sold. Marketplace Units have generally increased over time as we have expanded our territory coverage, added new dealer partners and increased our share of wholesale transactions from existing customers.
