Wed Apr 30 20:30:00 UTC 2025: ## eBay Projected to Report Slight Earnings Increase Despite Revenue Dip

**NEW YORK, NY –** Wall Street analysts predict a mixed bag for eBay (EBAY) in its upcoming quarterly earnings report. While earnings per share (EPS) are expected to rise 7.2% year-over-year to $1.34, revenue is projected to dip slightly by 0.4% to $2.55 billion, according to Zacks Equity Research.

This forecast comes despite recent downward revisions to EPS estimates by 2.1% over the past month, reflecting a reassessment by analysts. While consensus estimates point to a modest earnings increase, a deeper dive into key metrics reveals a more nuanced picture.

Analysts project a slight decrease in Gross Merchandise Volume (GMV) to $18.54 billion, compared to $18.62 billion in the same quarter last year. However, they anticipate an increase in Active Buyers to 134.14 million from 132 million. International GMV is projected to see a minor uptick to $9.68 billion, while US GMV is expected to decline to $8.85 billion from $8.97 billion. The Total Transaction Take Rate is forecast at 13.8%, a slight increase from the previous year’s 13.7%.

eBay’s stock has performed slightly better than the overall market in the past month, rising 1% compared to the Zacks S&P 500 composite’s -4.3% decline. Currently holding a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), the stock is anticipated to track overall market performance in the near term. Investors are advised to consider these projections alongside other factors when assessing eBay’s performance.
