- Q2 revenue and profitability declined sharply: Revenue fell 10% year over year to $97.8 million, while adjusted EBITDA declined 18.3% to $17.5 million, with margin down 180 basis points to 17.9%. The decline was driven by continued compression in low-value transactional work.
- Near-term conditions worsened and guidance was reduced: Fiverr reported decelerating marketplace traffic and demand that carried into Q3, attributing some pressure to LLM updates and AI-integrated search experiences. Q3 revenue is now expected to decline 18%–26% year over year, while full-year revenue is projected to fall 14%–17%.
- Higher-value work continued to grow: Projects valued at $1,000 or more represented 15% of completed-project gross order value and grew 13% year over year on a trailing 12-month basis. Programming and technology projects above $1,000 grew 34%, while graphics and design grew 25%, with strong demand also reported for AI video, voice agents, mobile apps, and websites.
- Management cited encouraging transformation metrics: Early testing showed skill extraction resolving up to 58% of conversation mismatches, a new matching model reducing cancellations by 7%, and semantic onboarding increasing new-customer conversion by 8%. Fiverr also said its fulfillment layer reached 91% verified precision across more than 84% of tested completed projects.
- The transition will take longer and capital allocation remains conservative: Management now expects meaningful financial benefits from its shift toward high-value, end-to-end projects to take at least six quarters, beginning in Q3. Fiverr ended the quarter with $308.5 million in cash and investments, plans to protect R&D spending, and said it is not currently pursuing inorganic investments.
