We achieved another quarter of strong results, coming in above the high end of our GMV and revenue guidance ranges, and at the top end of our adjusted EBITDA guidance range. We are proud of the entire Global-E team for their continued great execution throughout the quarter, which enabled these strong results. While we continue to see some uncertainty around duty tariffs and their potential adverse impact on global trade in the back half of the year, we nevertheless believe that our strong GMV and top line growth to date, together with our raised guidance for the year, demonstrate the resilience of our business model and the great value that merchants see in our services.

Speaker #5: We finished Q2 with GMV of $1.45 billion, up 34% year-over-year, and revenues of almost $215 million, up 28% year-over-year. In terms of profit, our adjusted gross profit for Q2 was just shy of $100 million, up 24% from last year.

Amir Schlachet: We finished Q2 with GMV of $1.45 billion, up 34% year over year, and with revenues of almost $215 million, up 28% year over year. In terms of profit, our adjusted gross profit for Q2 was just shy of $100 million, up 24% from last year, and quarterly adjusted EBITDA was $38.5 million, up 23% compared to the same quarter last year, resulting in a 17.9% margin. In terms of our financial performance, I also want to highlight that this quarter we achieved another important milestone in our journey as a company, that of sustainable GAAP profitability, with the net profit in the quarter coming in at $10.5 million compared to a net loss of $22.4 million in the same quarter of last year. The amortization of the majority of the Shopify warrants is now done, with the rest expected to be fully amortized by early 2026.

Speaker #5: And quarterly adjusted EBITDA was 38 and a half million dollars, up 23% compared to the same quarter last year resulting in a 17.9% margin.

Speaker #5: In terms of our financial performance, I also want to highlight that this quarter we achieved another important milestone in our journey as a company.

Speaker #5: That of sustainable GAAP AP profitability. With the net profit in the quarter coming in at 10 and a half million dollars, compared to a net loss of 22.4 million dollars in the same quarter of last year.

Speaker #5: The amortization of the majority of the Shopify warrants is now done, with the rest expected to be fully amortized by early 2026. As such, we expect to be GAAP profitable moving forward in subsequent quarters.

Amir Schlachet: As such, we expect to be GAAP profitable moving forward in subsequent quarters, and for 2025 to be our first full year of GAAP profitability, a testament to the strength and durability of our business model, as well as our relentless focus on execution and operational efficiency. Looking at the broader business performance metrics, we have seen the positive trend trading patterns from Q2 continue through the beginning of Q3 to date. While there is some level of uncertainty for the back half of the year, given the expected upcoming changes to the US de minimis exemption later in the month, we anticipate it will not have a major impact on our trading volumes.

Speaker #5: And for 2025, to be our first full year of GAAP profitability. A testament to the strength and durability of our business model as well as our relentless focus on execution and operational efficiency.

Speaker #5: Looking at the broader business performance metrics, we have seen the positive trend trading patterns from Q2 continue through the beginning of Q3 to date.

Speaker #5: While there is some level of uncertainty for the back half of the year, given the expected upcoming changes to the US de minimis exemption later in the month, we anticipate it will not have a major impact on our trading volumes.

Speaker #5: This is based on the training patterns we have seen in the last few months during tariff changes, the limited impact of the suspension of the de minimis exception for products with country of origin China and Hong Kong that already took place this May, and our 3B2C mitigation, which is available for merchants trading large volumes into the U.S.

Amir Schlachet: This is based on the trading patterns we have seen in the last few months during tariff changes, the limited impact of the suspension of the de minimis exemption for products with country of origin, China and Hong Kong that already took place this May, and our 3B2C mitigation, which is available for merchants trading large volumes into the US. In terms of our business growth, during Q2, we continue to see strong growth across many geographies and cohorts of merchants. As always, our growth was underpinned by our focus on bringing strategic solutions to an increasingly complex and fast-changing global e-commerce environment. Serving as a recent example, Global-E merchants trading to and from the US enjoy invaluable peace of mind.

Speaker #5: In terms of our business growth, during Q2 we continue to see strong growth across many geographies and cohorts of merchants. As always, our growth was underpinned by our focus on bringing strategic solutions to an increasingly complex and fast-changing global e-commerce environment.

Speaker #5: Serving as a recent example, globally, merchants trading to and from the U.S. enjoy valuable peace of mind. They know that, irrespective of how frequently tariffs and trade limitations are updated, Global-E not only makes sure they remain 100% up to date and compliant, but also helps them navigate complex business decisions.

Amir Schlachet: They know that, irrespective of how frequently tariffs and trade limitations are updated, Global-E not only makes sure they remain 100% up-to-date and compliant, but also helps them to navigate complex business decisions, lowering as much as possible the impact of these tariff changes on their sales. Moreover, in the face of higher tariffs, either due to the upcoming change to the de minimis exemption or other tariffs, our 3B2C solution and the ability to provide duty drawback further increase the attractiveness of our solution. We are seeing these result in increased interest within our new merchant pipeline and within our conversations with existing brands. Before we move on to our Q2 results and forward guidance in more detail, I would first like to go through a few recent exciting business developments. First, we extended our long-term strategic partnership with DHL, entering into an additional three-year agreement.

This new agreement enables us to provide excellent service to merchants and shoppers alike, while creating value for both Global-E and DHL. Second, as we announced two weeks ago, we acquired ReturnGo, a leading provider of AI-enabled return and exchange solutions. This acquisition is designed to elevate our native post-purchase solutions for our merchants, in parallel to our partnership with industry-leading return solutions such as Looq. As we integrate ReturnGo's advanced technology for automating returns, exchanges, and other post-purchase flows into our tech stack, we believe this will enable Global-E merchants to provide more flexible, best-in-class return experiences to their customers worldwide.

Service fee revenue for the quarter was $102.9 million, and fulfillment services revenue for the quarter was $112 million.

Moving on to operational expenses, we continued to invest in the development of our platform to further enhance our offerings and add value to the merchants. R&D expense in Q2, excluding stock-based compensation, was $26.2 million, or 12.2% of revenue, compared to $21.2 million, or 12.6% in the same period last year.

Shopify warrants-related amortization expense was $12.9 million in the quarter, down from $37.4 million in Q2 2024. As a reminder, we expect this expense to continue to decrease for the remainder of the year and to be completely gone at the beginning of 2026. Total sales and marketing expenses for the quarter were $44 million, down from over $60 million last year. General and administrative expenses, excluding stock-based compensation, were $8.8 million, or 4.1% of revenue, compared to $9.4 million, or 5.6% of revenue in Q2 of last year. The year-on-year decline was primarily due to one-off costs recorded in Q2 of the previous year, as well as improved operational efficiencies.

Speaker #6: Shopify's amortization expense related to warrants was $12.9 million in the quarter, down from $377.4 million in Q2 2024. As a reminder, we expect this expense to continue to decrease for the remainder of the year and to be completely eliminated by the beginning of 2026.

The net profit in the quarter was $10.5 million, compared to a net loss of $22.4 million in the year-ago period. The net profit was driven mainly by the reduced amortization expenses related to the Shopify warrants, as well as from the growth of the business. As Amir mentioned, given the amortization of the majority of the Shopify warrants-related assets is now done, with the rest expected to be fully amortized by early 2026, we expect to be GAAP profitable moving forward and for the full year of 2025.

Speaker #6: Adjusted EBITDA was 38.5 million up 23% from Q2 2024, and 4.1% above the midpoint of our guidance range. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 17.9% versus an 18.7% margin in Q2 2024.

Q2 was a strong quarter of cash generation, with free cash flow of $63.5 million in the quarter. Now, let's go through the Q3 and the updated full-year guidance.

We expect Q3 revenue to be in the range of $214 to $221 million, representing a year-over-year growth rate of 24% at the midpoint.

Revenue is expected to be in the range of $921.5 to $971.5 million, representing a growth rate of 26% at the midpoint of the range. For adjusted EBITDA, we are expecting a profit of $180 to $200 million. As Amir mentioned, we are very excited about the acquisition of ReturnGo, which we believe will enable us to elevate our post-purchase solutions experience and functionality. We expect the deal to have a slight positive contribution to revenue and a limited negative impact on adjusted EBITDA in 2025. However, we expect the impact on profit to be close to neutral by 2026, once we are able to realize all the planned cost synergies.

Speaker #6: Revenue is expected to be in the range of $921.5 million to $971.5 million, representing a growth rate of 26% at the midpoint of the range.

Speaker #6: For adjusted EBITDA, we're expecting a profit of 180 to 200 million. As Amir mentioned, we are very excited about the acquisition of ReturnGo, which we believe will enable us to elevate our post-purchase solutions experience and functionality.

Speaker #6: We expect the deal to have a slight positive contribution to revenue and a limited negative impact on adjusted EBITDA in 2025. However, we expect the impact on profit to be close to neutral by 2026, once we are able to realize all the planned cost synergies.

Speaker #6: To summarize, as a result, we present to you today that we remain on track with our growth trajectory, as per our long-term targets. We believe the current environment represents exciting opportunities for Global-E to add value and continue growing.

Nir Debbi: To summarize, as the results we present to you today reflect, we remain on track on our growth trajectory as per our long-term targets. We believe the current environment represents exciting opportunities for Global-E to add value and continue growing. Given the increasingly complicated global e-commerce environment, our services are becoming more integral to merchants every day. The market opportunity in front of us remains massive, and we continue on our path to support merchants worldwide in expanding their direct-to-consumer business. With that, Amir, Nir, Alan, and I are happy to answer questions you may have. Operator?

Speaker #6: Given the increasingly complicated global e-commerce environment, our services are becoming more integral to merchants every day. The market opportunity in front of us remains massive, and we continue on our path to support merchants worldwide in expanding their direct-to-consumer business.

Speaker #6: And with that, Amir near Alan and I are happy to answer questions you may have. Operator,

If you are using a speaker phone, please speak up your handset before pressing the keys. To withdraw your question, please press the star two. With that, our first question comes from the line of Will Nancy with Goldman Sachs. Please go ahead.

Speaker #3: If you're using a speakerphone, please speak up your handset before pressing the keys. To withdraw your question, please press the star two. With that, our first question comes from the lineup.

Speaker #3: We'll now answer it with Goldman Sachs, please go ahead.

Speaker #7: Hey, guys. I appreciate you taking the questions this morning. I wanted to maybe ask about a couple of your comments around the de minimis exemption and your expectations around that in the back half of the year.

Analyst: Hey, guys. Appreciate you taking the questions this morning. I wanted to maybe ask about a couple of your comments around the de minimis exemption and your expectations around that in the back half of the year. I take from the comments that you guys are not expecting a significant impact. Maybe if you could just talk a little bit about some of the ins and outs of your expectations in the back half of the year. I guess I will just ask, are you seeing the removal of the de minimis and the continued trade uncertainty? Has that driven any upside to the back half of the year? Is that maybe offsetting any kind of headwinds associated with some of the changes?

Speaker #7: You know, I take some of the comments that you guys are making about not expecting a significant impact. So maybe if you could just talk a little bit about some of the ins and outs of your expectations in the back half of the year. And, you know, I guess I'll just ask: Are you seeing the removal of the de minimis and the continued trade uncertainty?

Speaker #7: Has that driven any upside to the back half of the year? And has that maybe offsetting any kind of any kind of headwinds associated with some of the changes?

Speaker #8: Yeah, I wouldn't, I don't know how. First of all, Amir, thank you for the question. I'm not sure I would consider it as a tailwind, but definitely, as we commented, the trading looks resilient. We're already past a few months of trading post the recent changes to the de minimis exemption, and as we said, we haven't seen any material impact. The same store sales are within the multi-year trend.

Amir Schlachet: I wouldn't, I don't know how. First of all, it's Amir. Thank you for the question. I'm not sure I would consider it as a tailwind, but definitely, as we commented, the trading looks resilient. We're already past a few months of trading post the recent changes to the de minimis exemption. As we said, we haven't seen any material impact. The same store sales are within the multi-year trend. Yes, there is still some uncertainty. We are faced, and our merchants are faced with an ever-changing landscape. We do believe that at the end of August, the change that is coming will happen, the de minimis exemption. We do follow that into consideration when we provided the guidance. Despite all of that uncertainty, we did see trade deals coming in. We believe that, generally speaking, the risk of more tariffs or reciprocal tariffs has been reduced.

Speaker #8: Yes, there is still some uncertainty we are faced with in our merchant area due to the ever-changing landscape, and we do believe that by the end of August, the change that is coming will happen.

Speaker #8: But we do follow that into consideration when we provide the guidance. So despite all of that uncertainty, we did see trade deals coming in, so we believe that generally speaking, the risk of more tariffs or reciprocal tariffs has been reduced.

Speaker #8: And it's also important to remember that when you look at the inbound volumes that we have into the US, which is about 12% of the trade, about a third of that is coming from country of origin China and Hong Kong.

Amir Schlachet: It's also important to remember that when you look at the inbound volumes that we have into the U.S., which is about 12% of the trade, about a third of that is coming from country of origin, China, and Hong Kong. The remainder will have some impact on when the de minimis is removed for the rest of the country. Again, we don't expect, we do expect to see an offset of that in terms of the pricing of the product. Overall, we don't expect a meaningful impact on our trade volumes.

Speaker #8: So the remainder will have some impact on when the de minimis is removed for the rest of the countries. But again, we don't expect we do expect to see an offset of that in terms of the pricing of the product and overall we don't expect a meaningful impact on our trade volumes.

Speaker #7: Got it. Super helpful. And maybe just a housekeeping item here on the acquisition. Is there any way you could lay out what the expectation or what's assumed in the back half of the year guide on the top line?

Analyst: Got it. Super helpful. Maybe just a housekeeping item here on the acquisition. Is there any way you could lay out what the expectation or what is assumed in the back half of the year guide on the top line? Similarly, on the OpEx side, I think you mentioned investing in sales and marketing this quarter. Should we take that as sort of your direct sales force, or is that continued strength in Shopify and just how you are thinking about OpEx trends and sales and marketing in the back half? Thanks.

Speaker #7: And then similarly on the OPEX side, I think you mentioned investing in sales and marketing this quarter. Should we take that as sort of your direct sales force, or is that continued strength in Shopify? And just how you're thinking about OPEX trends and sales and marketing in the back half?

Speaker #7: Thanks.

Speaker #8: Sure. So in terms of ReturnGo for 2025, it will have a slight positive impact to revenue of just over $1 million. In terms of adjusted EBITDA, it will be slightly diluted.

Nir Debbi: Sure. So in terms of ReturnGo for 2025, it will have a slight positive impact to revenue of just over $1 million. In terms of adjusted EBITDA, it could be slightly diluted. We expect it to have a negative impact of approximately $1 million on the adjusted EBITDA. For 2026, once we achieve the expected synergies, which should be relatively simple to achieve, it should be very close to EBITDA neutral. In terms of sales and marketing, we have seen a certain increase of sales and marketing as a percentage of revenue. Some of it is attributed to the higher volumes of GMV and the rev share we pay to Shopify, which is expected to reduce in the last few months of the year. The remaining is a certain additional investment that we will put in or already putting into sales and marketing, a few more people.

Speaker #8: We expect it to have a negative impact of approximately $1 million on adjusted EBITDA. By the way, for 2026, once we achieve the expected synergies, which should be relatively simple to achieve, it should be very close to EBITDA neutral.

Speaker #8: In terms of sales and marketing, we have seen a certain increase of sales and marketing out of as a percentage of revenue. Some of it is attributed to the higher volumes of GMV and the rev share we pay to Shopify, which is expected to reduce in the last few months of the year.

Speaker #8: And the remaining yes is a certain additional investment that we will put in or already putting into sales and marketing a few more people.

Speaker #7: That's very helpful. I appreciate you taking the questions.

Analyst: That's very helpful. I appreciate you taking the questions.

Speaker #8: Thanks, Will.

Amir Schlachet: Thanks, Will.

Speaker #3: Your Your next question comes from the line of Samad Samana with Jeffries, please go ahead.

Alan Katz: Your next question comes from the line of Samad Samana with Jefferies. Please go ahead.

Speaker #9: Hey, good morning and good to see the strong quarter. Maybe first just, you know, the 3B2C product you guys mentioned that there's good uptake there and, you know, especially kind of given the policy environment.

Analyst: Hey, good morning, and good to see the strong quarter. Maybe first, just the 3B2C product, you guys mentioned that there is good uptake there, especially given the policy environment. Now that you have had customers adopt it and go live with it and utilize it, what type of take rate are you seeing from that cohort of customers? How should we think about the impact to the take rate going forward as you see more adoption of 3B2C? I have one follow-up question.

Speaker #9: Now that you've had customers adopt and go live with it and utilize it, what type of take rate are you seeing from that cohort of customers?

Speaker #9: And how should we think about maybe the impact to the take rate going forward as you see more adoption of 3B2C? And then I have one follow-up question.

Speaker #6: Hi Samad, it's Neil. So first, we are very excited with the 3B2C solution. We are seeing growing interest from both new and existing merchants especially with the abolishment of de minimis expected to come in end of August.

Nir Debbi: Hi, Samad, it's Nir. First, we are very excited with the 3B2C solution. We are seeing growing interest from both new and existing merchants, especially with the abolishment of de minimis expected to come in end of August. We have a couple of merchants already live and trading with the solutions, and we have others that are expected to launch within the quarter and a few new ones already in the funnel. In terms of the take rate dynamics, it's kind of close to the regular dynamics that we see on a regular D2C transaction because our fees are calculated out of the consumer transaction, which is actually the same between a 3B2C model and our regular model. There might be a minimal impact in terms of the clearance fees, but this is, I would say, miscellaneous in terms of our take rates.

Speaker #6: We have a couple of merchants already live and trading with the solutions, and we have others that are expected to launch within the quarter, and a few new ones already in the funnel.

Speaker #6: In terms of the take rate dynamics, it's kind of close to the regular dynamics that we see on a regular B2C transaction. Because our fees are calculated out of the consumer transaction, which is actually the same between a 3B2C model and our regular model.

Speaker #6: There might be a minimal impact in terms of the clearance fees, but this is, I would say, miscellaneous in terms of our take rate.

Speaker #9: Great. And then maybe on the acquisition, I'm curious if that was a company that you were already partnering with and, you know, if I look at ReturnGo's website, there's some pretty notable logos that they have that globally may not have.

Analyst: Great. Then maybe on the acquisition, I am curious if that was a company that you were already partnering with. If I look at ReturnGo's website, there are some pretty notable logos that they have that Global-E may not have. Is there an opportunity to maybe go and cross-sell or acquire their customers? What is maybe the overlap in your base today and how much of a cross-sell opportunity is there? Just maybe more details on what the opportunity there is, given that it is relatively small in size.

Speaker #9: So are you, is it an opportunity to maybe go and cross-sell or acquire their customers and what's maybe the overlap in your base today and how much of a cross-sell opportunity is there?

Speaker #9: Just maybe more details on what the opportunity there is given that it's relatively small in size.

Speaker #6: Sure. Thank you. It's Neil again. So first, we believe that this acquisition will further position us with the best-in-class solution in the market for post-purchase. Today, mainly where our solution was built on our internal capabilities that weren't best in class, and now we have, I would say, an in-house solution that will be best in class for our own merchants, with additional services built into it, such as exchanges and more.

Nir Debbi: Sure. Thank you. It's Nir again. First, we believe that this acquisition will further position us with a best-in-class solution in the market for post-purchase. Today, our solution was built on our internal capabilities that were not best-in-class. Now we have an in-house solution that will be best-in-class for our own merchants with additional services built into it, such as exchanges and more. They do have within their client base a certain level of clients that can be a relevant fit to become a Global-E merchant that are not currently our merchants. As part of the synergies we are looking to have, we will also, of course, offer these merchants to utilize the rest of Global-E's services. Yet to be proven what would be the success rate on that, but this was an add-on to the rationale.

Speaker #6: More than that, yes, they do have within the client base certain level of clients that can be relevant fit to become a global merchant that are aren't currently our merchants.

Speaker #6: And in the as part of the synergies, we are looking to have we will also of course offer these merchants to utilize the rest of the global services.

Speaker #6: Yet to be proven what would be the success rate on that, but this was an add-on to the rationale. The main rationale just to be clear, was to improve the post-service solution and increase shopper satisfaction for all our brands.

Nir Debbi: The main rationale, just to be clear, was to improve the post-service solution and increase shopper satisfaction for all our brands.

Speaker #9: Great. Thanks again for sharing. Thanks again, guys. Have a great day.

Analyst: Great. Thanks again, Jens. Thanks again, Jess. Have a great day.

Speaker #6: Thank you.

Speaker #8: Thanks so much.

Nir Debbi: Thank you.

Amir Schlachet: Thanks so much.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of James Fossett with Morgan Stanley. Please go ahead.

Alan Katz: Your next question comes from the line of James Sosat with Morgan Stanley. Please go ahead.

Speaker #9: Hey, good morning. Thanks for the time this morning. I wanted to chat on a couple of things or ask a couple of questions. First on the back half of the year, there's pretty good implied acceleration there.

Amir Schlachet: Hey, good morning. Thanks for the time this morning. I wanted to chat on a couple of things or ask a couple of questions. First, on the back half of the year, there is pretty good implied acceleration there. It would be great if you could provide some insight into the growth and composition of the pipeline as you see it today, and if there has been any change since Liberation Day. In particular, do you still expect to grow net new merchant GMV on a dollar basis this year, even though you had such a strong benefit from enterprise ads last year?

Speaker #9: It'd be great if you could provide some insight into the growth and composition of the pipeline as you see it today. And if there's been any change since Liberation Day.

Speaker #9: And in particular, do you still expect to grow net new merchant GMV on a dollar basis this year? Even though you had such a strong benefit from enterprise ads last year?

Speaker #8: Hey, Jane. Thank you for the question. It's all fair. I think that regarding the back half of the year, generally speaking, as we mentioned, we see very solid trading patterns we see solid same store sales numbers and we see that continuing into July and the beginning of August.

Nir Debbi: Hey, James. Thank you for the question. It's Ofer. I think that regarding the back half of the year, generally speaking, as we mentioned, we see very solid trading patterns. We see solid same-store sales numbers, and we see that continuing into July and the beginning of August. This is definitely a positive. On top of that, we have been adding merchants throughout the year. We do not have this year the two very large ones. When you look at the overall numbers, they are very similar to what we have seen last year, just much less concentrated. We will continue onboarding merchants until peak period. We expect, in terms of GMV from new merchants, to see a similar contribution to last year. So pretty similar numbers. Hopefully, if it goes well, it might be even above those numbers.

Speaker #8: So this is definitely a positive, but also on top of that, we have been adding merchants throughout the year. We don't have this this year the two very large ones, but when you look at the overall numbers, they are very similar to what we have seen last year, just much less concentrated.

Speaker #8: So we will continue onboarding merchants until peak period. And we expect in terms of GMV from new merchants, we expect to see similar contribution to last year.

Speaker #8: So pretty similar numbers, you know, hopefully if it goes well, might be even above those numbers.

Speaker #9: Got it. Got it. And then, I know you already touched on take rate, but obviously good to see the recovery and the sequential improvement in service fee take rate.

Amir Schlachet: Got it. Got it. Then one, I know you already touched on take rate, but obviously good to see the recovery and the sequential improvement in service fee take rate. How should we think about the drivers of take rate on a go-forward basis? I am just wondering how to think about that on the services side, as well as what kind of trajectory we should be expecting on fulfillment, especially with multilocal adoption. You know, trying to think about that on a more medium-term basis. Thanks.

Speaker #9: How should we think about the drivers of take rate on a go-forward basis? And I'm just wondering, how to think about that on the services side as well as what kind of trajectory we should be expecting on fulfillment, especially with multi-local adoption and trying to think about that on more medium-term basis?

Speaker #9: Thanks.

Speaker #8: Yeah. So in terms of service fee take rate as we've mentioned, when we guided for the year after the certain drop we had as a result of the loss of Deb Baker, we expected it to be more or less stable.

Nir Debbi: Yeah. So in terms of service fee take rates, as we have mentioned, when we guided for the year after the certain drop we had as a result of the loss of Ted Baker, we expected it to be more or less stable. There is some volatility between quarters, mainly due to a mix. Our expectations still remain the same. So we expect it to be close to H1 levels. Q2 was a very good quarter in that sense. But again, we had the positive mix contributing. We do see more interest, and we are also gradually building more propositions around value-added services, mainly duty drawback. We expect that going into next year, this might contribute. It is still early to say, but we see, due to the changes in tariffs in the tariff environment, we do see an opportunity there.

Speaker #8: There is some volatility between quarters due mainly to a mix, but our expectations still remain the same. So we expect it to be close to H1 to H1 levels. Q2 was a very good quarter in that sense.

Speaker #8: But again, we had the positive mix contributing. We do see more interest than we are also gradually building more propositions around the value-added services, mainly duty drawback.

Speaker #8: And we expect that going into next year, this might contribute still early to say, but we see due to the changes in tariffs in the tariff environment, we do see an opportunity there.

Speaker #8: So that might potentially provide us an upside opportunity. But it's a bit early to say if that will come through.

Nir Debbi: So that might potentially provide us an upside opportunity, but it is a bit early to say if that will come through.

Speaker #9: Great. Thanks for that.

Amir Schlachet: is great. Thanks for that.

Speaker #8: Just in terms of the fulfillment take rate, we expect it to remain for the remainder of the year close to Q2 levels because, on the one hand, we will see a higher share of multi-local, as we commented in the beginning of the year.

Nir Debbi: Just in terms of the fulfillment take rate, we expect them to remain for the remaining of the year to be, again, close to Q2 levels because, on the one hand, we will see a higher share of multilocal. As we commented in the beginning of the year, there are two or three large merchants that are shifting some of their volumes to multilocal, and we will see this happen. Some of it has already happened, and some will happen in the remaining of the year. On the other hand, Q2 has some AOV seasonality. It is typically a high AOV quarter average order value, and this has been the case also in this Q2. So we expect that to have a positive impact that will offset the multilocal impact for the remaining of the year. We expect it to stay close to the current levels.

Speaker #8: There are two or three large merchants that are shifting some of their volumes to multi-local. And we will see this happen. Some of it is already happened.

Speaker #8: And some will happen in the remaining of the year. On the other hand, Q2 is has some AOV seasonality. It's typically a high AOV quarter average order value, and this has been the case also in this Q2.

Speaker #8: So we expect that to have a positive impact that will offset the multi-local impact for the remaining of the year. So we expect it to stay close to the current levels.

Speaker #9: Great. Appreciate that offer. Have a good day, everybody.

Amir Schlachet: Great. Appreciate that, Ofer Koren. Have a good day, everybody.

Speaker #8: Thank you.

Speaker #9: Thank you.

Analyst: Thank you, James.

Speaker #3: Your Your next question comes from the line of Chris Zhang with UBS. Please go ahead.

Alan Katz: Your next question comes from the line of Chris Zhang with UBS. Please go ahead.

Speaker #7: Hi. Thanks for taking my question. So I wanted to ask about the new arrangements with Shopify, mainly related to the three-piece site. First, on the rev share reduction, maybe you can confirm the timing of the rev share reduction on the three-piece site and how you have baked that into the EBITDA guide?

Analyst: Hi. Thanks for taking my question. I wanted to ask about the new arrangement with Shopify and mainly related to the 3P side. First, on the rev share reduction, maybe can you confirm the timing of the rev share reduction on the 3P side and how you have baked that into the EBITDA guide? It seems that from the implied Q4 EBITDA margin, it shows slightly higher than typical sequential step-up, and how much of that is reflecting the new agreement? Then I will follow up on the pricing.

Speaker #7: Because it seems that from the implied Q4 EBITDA margin, it shows a slightly higher than typical sequential step up. And how much of that is reflecting the new agreement?

Speaker #7: And then I'll follow up on the pricing.

Speaker #8: Hi, Chris. Thank you for the question. It's all fair. In terms of the timing, it will come in late in Q3. So, there will be a limited impact in Q3.

Nir Debbi: Hi, Chris. Thank you for the question. It's Ofer. In terms of the timing, it will come in late in Q3. There will be a limited impact in Q3, and the new arrangement will be in place, obviously, for Q4. We definitely took that into account in our guidance. As we mentioned, I think in the previous quarter, over time, we expect the new situation to weigh a bit on our gross margin, as we do expect to see some more competition. Although for now, I would say we haven't seen a significant change in the environment. However, the reduction in the rev share will enable us over time. We believe that it will enable us over time to get overall improved economics and improve our adjusted EBITDA.

Speaker #8: And the new arrangement will be in place, obviously, for Q4. We definitely took that into account in our guidance. As we mentioned, I think in the previous quarter, over time we expect the sort of the new situation to have to weigh a bit on our gross margin as we do expect to see some more competition.

Speaker #8: Although for now, I would say we haven't seen a significant change in the environment. However, the reduction in the rev share will enable us over time.

Speaker #8: We believe that it will enable us over time to get overall improved economics and improve our adjusted EBITDA.

Speaker #7: Thank you so much for the color, and I think you pretty much answered the question on the pricing. So maybe I'll just ask more about a specific product. Just from your new agreement, there's a mention of Shop Pay to be made available on the three-piece site.

Analyst: Thank you so much for the cover. I think you pretty much answered the question on the pricing. So maybe I will just ask more about a specific product. From your new agreement, there is a mention of ShopPay to be made available on the 3P side. Maybe can you talk about your thoughts on the impact on the payments portion of the revenue in 3P and if there is any potential for Shopify payments in general to take over a bigger responsibility on the 3P side, considering the variable parts, including the free conversion of Shopify payments, but also some of the potential economic changes there. I just wanted to hear your thoughts.

Speaker #7: And maybe can you talk about your thoughts on the impact on the payment portion of the revenue in 3P and if there's any potential for Shopify payments in general to take over a bigger responsibility on the three-piece site, you know, considering the variable parts including the free conversion of Shopify payments, but also some of the potential economic changes there.

Speaker #7: Just wanted to hear your thoughts.

Speaker #8: Great. Thank you. It's Neil. So, just on the market dynamics, as we expected, we have seen some increase in the competitive landscape. However, if you take into account our high win rate on other platforms, as well as our vast experience on the Shopify platform and the preferred status that we have with exclusive features and capabilities, we believe that we will have even more than that on the Shopify platform.

Nir Debbi: Great. Thank you. It's Nir. On the market dynamics, as we expected, we have seen some increase in the competitive landscape. However, if you take into account our high win rate on other platforms, as well as our vast experience on the Shopify platform and the preferred status that we have with exclusive features and capabilities, we believe that we will have even more than that on the Shopify platform. On the competitive side, we feel quite strong with the recent changes. In terms of ShopPay, we are expecting it to be launched sometime late Q3, early Q4, and we expect it will be heavily used and adopted by our merchants as it is used on Shopify. In terms of utilizing the Shopify payments for our services for 1P, of course, it's going to be embedded in the new model of Shopify within the managed markets.

Speaker #8: So on the competitive side, we feel quite strong with the recent changes. In terms of ShopPay, we are expecting it to be launched sometime late Q3, early Q4, and we expect it will be heavily used and adopted by our merchants as it is used on Shopify.

Speaker #8: In terms of utilizing the Shopify payments for our services for 1P, of course, it's going to be embedded in the new model of Shopify within the managed markets.

Speaker #8: For 3P, it's not planned.

Nir Debbi: For 3P, it's not planned.

Speaker #7: All right. Thank you very much for the details. I appreciate it.

Analyst: All right. Thank you very much for the details. Appreciate it.

Speaker #8: Thanks, Chris.

Amir Schlachet: Thanks, Chris.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Scott Berg with Needham. Please go ahead.

Alan Katz: Your next question comes from the line of Scott Berg with Needham. Please go ahead.

Speaker #9: Hi, everyone. Really nice quarter. Two questions for me: I wanted to start with some detail on the new Life360. I guess the only contract consumer tech is not necessarily new for you all, but a subscription-based product seems I don't know, a little strange to me because there's no cross-border shipping really with into it and there's no shipping charges necessarily.

Analyst: Hi, everyone. Really nice quarter. Two questions for me. I wanted to start with some detail on the new Life360. I guess dealing contract consumer tech is not necessarily new for you all, but a subscription-based product seems a little strange to me because there is no cross-border shipping really within it, and there are no shipping charges necessarily. How does that opportunity kind of fit into the broader Global-E portfolio here going forward?

Speaker #9: But how does that opportunity kind of fit into the broader global portfolio here going forward?

Speaker #8: So, hi Scott, it's Neil. Thank you for the question. We started this journey when we targeted the consumer electronics market. Once we began to gain traction in the vertical, we now have multiple clients within the vertical. Even Amir spoke about SteelSeries, a very nice consumer electronics brand that just launched with us.

Nir Debbi: Oh, hi. Scott, it's Nir. Thank you for the question. We started this journey when we targeted the consumer electronics. Once we started to gain traction in the vertical, and we have today multiple clients within the vertical, I think Amir spoke about SteelSeries, a very nice consumer electronics brand that just launched with us. We came into an evolution that also subscription was needed. We do not see a straightforward play for digital goods subscription, a large opportunity for Global-E. However, we do see it supporting merchants that are selling physical goods and want a subscription on top of it, whether as plans to use their as extra plans to sell on top of their physical goods or a standalone product that is a digital subscription good, but for a merchant that sells also physical goods. We believe this would be our sweet spot.

Speaker #8: We came into an evolution that also subscription was needed. We don't see a straightforward play for digital goods subscription a large opportunity for globally.

Speaker #8: However, we do see it as supporting merchants that are selling physical goods and want a subscription on top of it. Whether it's plans to use as extra plans to sell on top of their physical goods or a standalone product that is a digital subscription good, but for a merchant that sells also physical goods.

Speaker #8: So we believe this would be our sweet spot. There might be some pure players, but this is not the core for our strategy. And for those merchants that have a combination of physical, virtual, and subscription, we are best positioned to take advantage of it because it does require our clearance capabilities, our know-how in duty management and physical good movements.

Nir Debbi: There might be some pure players, but this is not the core for our strategy. For those merchants that have a combination of physical, virtual, and subscription, we are best positioned to take advantage of it because it does require our clearance capabilities, our know-how in duty management and physical good movements.

Speaker #9: Very helpful, Amir. Appreciate that. And then from a follow-up perspective, the growth in your US business is actually accelerated year over year, which is kind of interesting given what's going on with all the, I think, different tariff dynamics there.

Analyst: Very helpful, Nir. Appreciate that. From a follow-up perspective, the growth in your US business has actually accelerated year over year, which is kind of interesting given what is going on with all the different tariff dynamics there. Can you help understand what is maybe specifically going on with the US side of your business? Maybe it is just more focus there to drive more vendors from the US, but any color there would be helpful.

Speaker #9: Can you help us understand what's specifically going on with the U.S. side of your business? Maybe it's just more focused there to drive more vendors from the U.S., but any color there would be helpful.

Speaker #9: Thank you.

Speaker #8: Sure. So then the US business continues to outperform. A lot of this outperformance is from very strong growth of some of the US brands.

Nir Debbi: The U.S. business continues to outperform. A lot of this outperformance is from a very strong growth of some of the U.S. brands. Our U.S. brands, a lot of them are much more digitally native than what we see in other parts of the geos we serve. These clients typically grow faster. On average, they have a faster same-store sales growth, which is actually growing the U.S. even faster than other parts of the world. In terms of the new booking contribution, U.S. is not doing better than our other developed markets. I can say that the emerging markets are growing even faster, but their share in our overall mix is still relatively low.

Speaker #8: Our US brands a lot of them are much more digitally native than where we see in other parts of the geos we serve. And these clients typically grow faster.

Speaker #8: So in average, they have a faster same-store sales growth, which is actually growing the US even faster than other parts of the world. In terms of the new booking contribution, US isn't doing better than our other developed markets.

Speaker #8: And I can say that the emerging markets are growing even faster, but they're sharing our overall mix is still relatively low.

Speaker #9: Wonderful. Thanks for taking my questions.

Analyst: Wonderful. Thanks for taking my questions.

Speaker #3: Thank you. And your next question comes from the line of Mark Sokotovich with Benchmark. Please go ahead.

Alan Katz: Thank you. Your next question comes from the line of Mark Sokotovic with Benchmark. Please go ahead.

Speaker #10: Thank you. Just on the border-free comment,

Analyst: Thank you. Just on the Borderfree.com comment.

Speaker #8: Can you repeat? Were you just cut off?

Amir Schlachet: Can you repeat? We just got cut off.

Speaker #10: Can you hear me okay?

Analyst: Can you hear me okay?

Speaker #8: Yeah. Now we can hear you. Sorry.

Amir Schlachet: Now I can hear. Sorry.

Speaker #10: Okay. Sorry about that. I just was hoping you could comment further on the border-free 4% revenue contribution and whether that was in line with your expectations or above.

Analyst: Sorry about that. I was hoping you could comment further on the Borderfree 4% revenue contribution and whether that was in line with your expectations or above. If we think about the 250 merchants that you have onboarded there, how core are they to driving that contribution level higher? What would you expect to see in terms of total merchants exiting this year, just roughly, just trying to get a sense of the pace of that merchant growth that we should look for? Thanks.

Speaker #10: And then if we think about the $250 merchants that you've onboarded there, how core are they to driving that contribution level higher? And what would you expect to see in terms of total merchants exiting this year just roughly, just trying to get a sense of the pace of that merchant growth that we should look for?

Speaker #10: Thanks.

Speaker #8: Well, just to clarify, it's Neil. Thank you. Just to clarify, the metrics the 4% growth for those merchants, it's merchants that actually joined the border-free platform.

Nir Debbi: Just to clarify, it's Nir. Thank you. Just to clarify the metrics, the 4% growth for those merchants, it's merchants that actually joined the Borderfree platform. It's not our entire base of merchants. It's those that actually adopted the platform. For them, Borderfree is equal today to 4% of the business. 4% of the traffic is actually end sales that are coming out of our demand generation solution on Borderfree.com. We are happy with the development of it. The product was launched in Q4 last year. It's still early days for the product. When we met you all at the Investor Day, we already seen traction with around 2.6% already coming of the traffic for the participating sites coming from Borderfree.com. We are currently over 4%. It's in line with our expectation.

Speaker #8: It's not our entire base of merchants. It's those that actually adopted the platform. For them, border-free is equal today to 4% of the business, 4% of the traffic is actually end sales are coming out of our demand generation solution on the border-free.com.

Speaker #8: We are happy. With the development of it, it was the product was launched in Q4 last year. It's just early days still early days for the product.

Speaker #8: When we met you all at the Investor Day, we already seen traction with around 2.6% already coming of the traffic for the participating sites coming from border-free.com.

Speaker #8: We are currently over 4. It's in line with our expectation. And over time, we expect that with maturity, we can hit over 5% and even up to 10% on average with some of the brands, or I would say the high contribution brands, even enjoying a two-digit contribution from our demand generation.

Nir Debbi: Over time, we expect that with maturity, we can hit over 5% and even up to 10% on average with some of the brands, or I would say the high contribution brands even enjoying a two-digit contribution from our demand generation, which is a great driver for our native growth as we take percent of their growth. Of course, it increases the stickiness of our model as now we're not only converting better for you and simplifying your global operations, we're also driving new revenue.

Speaker #8: Which is a great driver for our native growth as we take percent of their growth. And of course, increases the stickiness of our model as now we're not only converting better for you and simplifying your global operation, we're also driving new revenue too.

Speaker #10: That's helpful. And maybe a separate question just around NDR trends in the first half. Versus what is implied in your second half, revenue guidance.

Analyst: That's helpful. And maybe a separate question just around NDR trends in the first half versus what is implied in your second half revenue guidance. Also, if you could perhaps qualify your same-store merchant GMV growth relative to new year to date and how that sort of compares to last year. Thank you.

Speaker #10: And also if you could perhaps qualify your same-store merchant GMV growth relative to new year-to-date. And how that sort of compares to last year.

Speaker #10: Thank you.

Speaker #8: Sure. So generally speaking, there is some of course as always some volatility between periods, but when we look at the year-to-date figures, as we mentioned, in line with our historical average, and pretty close to the numbers we had in our planning.

Nir Debbi: Sure. Generally speaking, there is some, of course, as always, some volatility between periods. When we look at the year-to-date figures, they are, as we mentioned, in line with our historical average and pretty close to the numbers we had in our planning. This has been also continuing in the beginning of Q3. For the remaining of the year, we expect that to stay more or less in that environment. In terms of contribution from new merchants, as we mentioned previously, we expect that contribution to be pretty close to what we have seen last year. Last year, we had a lot of contribution in the last part of the year from new merchants. This time, it is much less concentrated, both in terms of timing and also the volume contribution of each merchant. We expect the numbers to be pretty close.

Speaker #8: And this has been also continuing in the beginning of Q3. For the remaining of the year, we expect that to stay more or less in that environment.

Speaker #8: In terms of contribution from new merchants, as we mentioned, previously we expect that contribution to be pretty close to what we have seen last year.

Speaker #8: Last year, we had last year we had a lot of contribution in the last part of the year from new merchants. This time, it's much less concentrated both in terms of timing and also the volume contribution of each merchant.

Speaker #8: But we expect it the numbers to be pretty close.

Speaker #10: Excellent. Thanks, guys.

Analyst: Excellent. Thanks, guys.

Speaker #3: Thank you. And your next question comes from the line of Patrick Will Ravens with Citizens. Please go ahead.

Alan Katz: Thank you. Your next question comes from the line of Patrick Walravens with Citizens. Please go ahead.

Speaker #11: Oh, great. Thank you. And let me add my congratulations. Amir, maybe if you and probably near to just stepping back, if you look at the last five years of your relationship with Shopify, what do you think are sort of the key lessons that you've learned?

Analyst: Oh, great. Thank you. Let me add my congratulations. Amir, maybe if you, and probably Nir too, just stepping back, if you look at the last five years of your relationship with Shopify, what do you think are the key lessons that you've learned?

Speaker #8: Wow. That's how much time do we have?

Amir Schlachet: Wow. How much time do we have?

Speaker #11: I'm probably not on the Q&A script.

Analyst: Probably not on the Q&A script.

Speaker #8: Exactly. No, actually you did. No, I think we've what we've learned along the years, and I think it's reflected in the fact that the relationship is continuing to grow, continuing to flourish, and we continue to renew our vows every so often.

Amir Schlachet: Exactly. No, actually, it is. I think what we have learned along the years, and I think it is reflected in the fact that the relationship is continuing to grow, continuing to flourish, and we continue to renew our vows every so often, is that it has, I think, all the basis for a good, mutually beneficial partnership because each side brings to the table its strength and its unique contribution. I think, to me, that is the basis of every good long-term strategic relationship. We are seeing the benefits of that, both on our enterprise side and, as you have all seen, that led to an even deeper relationship on what has now become managed markets. We are on that, we are working ever so closely with Shopify to make it an even deeper and more synergetic integration.

Speaker #8: Is that it has the, I think, all the basis for a good mutually beneficial partnership because each side brings to the table its strength and its unique contribution.

Speaker #8: So I think to me that is the basis of every good long-term strategic relationship. And we're seeing the benefits of that, both on our enterprise side, and as you've all seen, that led to an even deeper relationship on what is now become managed markets and is where on that we're re working ever so closely with Shopify to make it an even deeper and most energetic integration.

Speaker #8: So to me, it's the main lesson is that if it makes sense, then to both sides, then it can be a very successful mutually beneficial partnership.

Amir Schlachet: To me, the main lesson is that if it makes sense to both sides, then it can be a very successful, mutually beneficial partnership.

Speaker #11: Great. And then my follow-up is, what specifically is what do you specifically working on now with Shopify in terms of the additional functionality? And when do we expect that to come out?

Analyst: Great. My follow-up is, what specifically are you working on now with Shopify in terms of the additional functionality? When do we expect that to come out? What are the top two or three things?

Speaker #11: What are the top, you know, two or three things?

Speaker #8: I I think we should divide it between the two solutions. On the managed markets front, we are working on as we guided together with Shopify on aligning the domestic experience to the global experience using managed markets.

Nir Debbi: I think we should divide it between the two solutions. On the managed markets front, we are working on, as we guided together with Shopify, on aligning the domestic experience to the global experience using managed markets, serving much more of the functionality through the Shopify platform, utilizing ShopPay, and making, I would say, the entire reconciliation process seamless between the domestic and the global experience. For the 3P solution, I think the main thing coming up soon is ShopPay, which we believe would be a great tool to continue and upgrade the conversion to our merchant, offering them even a better experience on their global partnership with Global-E on Shopify. Good to mention here that this feature is also exclusive for Global-E for the next 12 months. So it is also a good edge versus competition.

Speaker #8: Serving much more of the functionalities through the Shopify platform utilizing Shopify payments. And making I would say the entire reconciliation process seamless between the domestic and the global experience.

Speaker #8: For the three-piece solution, I think the main thing coming up soon is ShopPay, which we believe would be a great tool to continue and upgrade the conversion to our merchant, offering them even a better experience on their global partnership with globally on Shopify.

Speaker #8: Good to mention here that this feature is also exclusive for globally for the next 12 months. So it's also a good edge versus competition.

Speaker #8: As part of it also, Shopify has integrated us into the new markets, into the new market solution that allows more flexibility to our merchant utilizing the same customization, same editor, and other functionalities that is now available with a combination of globally and Shopify.

Nir Debbi: As part of it also, Shopify has integrated us into their new market solution that allows more flexibility to our merchant, utilizing the thing customization, theme editor, and other functionality that is now available with a combination of Global-E and Shopify.

Speaker #11: Okay. Thank you both.

Analyst: Okay. Thank you both.

Speaker #8: Thanks, Pat.

Amir Schlachet: Thanks, Pat.

Speaker #3: And your next question comes from the line of Brent Raisin with Biper Sandler. Please go ahead.

Alan Katz: Your next question.

Operator: comes from the line of Brent Raston with Piper Sandler. Please go ahead.

Speaker #12: I just want to root off on for Brent today. Thanks for taking my questions. I didn't hear much about multi-local in the prepared remarks.

David Brown: This is Hannah Rudolph on for Brent today. Thanks for taking my questions. I did not hear much about Multilocal in the prepared remarks. It sounds like you are seeing some of that volume shift over to Multilocal, but was there anything else to call out for the quarter? Do you still expect Multilocal to hit around 15% of GMV this year?

Speaker #12: It sounds like you are seeing some of that volume shift over to multi-local, but was there anything else to call out for the quarter and do you still expect multi-local to hit around 15% of GMV this year?

Speaker #8: So I think the reason we didn't give it much emphasis is that we don't see a change from the dynamic we're already highlighted in our guidance for the year and in our Q1 results.

Alan Katz: I think the reason we didn't give it much emphasis is that we don't see a change from the dynamic we already highlighted in our guidance for the year and in our Q1 results. We continue to see a gradual shift towards it in line with what we indicated around the 15% that we expected to hit. It's all baked into our guidance. That's why we gave it less emphasis in our discussion. But the trend continues, and we continue to build services in order to support better trading within Multilocal and make our service and solution more appealing to Multilocal merchants.

Speaker #8: So we continue to see gradual shift towards it. In line with what we indicated around the 15% that we expected to hit. So it's all baked into our guidance.

David Brown: Got it. Makes sense. Is ReturnGo bringing any AI capabilities or functionality that you can apply to other areas of your business?

Alan Katz: They have some AI capabilities related to prediction models around the returns, the reasoning behind it, the ability to sell to the client instead of a refund, alternative solutions such as wallets or gift cards, loyalty points, or an exchange. It is less relevant for outbound experience, but it is an enhancement that I am sure that our merchants would be happy to utilize once we complete the integration and make it our internal tool.

David Brown: Helpful. Thank you.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Maddy Srij with Qivan Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

Erica Mannion: Hey, guys. Thanks for taking my question. My first one was just on kind of the international split. It seems like the UK still kind of sees some weakness. Is this expected to continue for the rest of 2025? I was wondering if you guys could talk about where you are seeing the greatest strength in the rest of the world and maybe where you see the most opportunity going into 2026. Thanks.

Hey guys, thanks for taking my question. My first 1 was just on um kind of the international split. Um so it seems like the UK still kind of see some weakness is this expected to continue for the rest of 2025 and then I was wondering if you guys could talk about where you're seeing the greatest strengths you know in rest.

Of World, um, and maybe where you see the most opportunity going into 2026, thanks.

Alan Katz: Related to the weakness seen outbound in the UK, I think this is coming out of two reasons. One is a mix that is driven from seasonality. We have huge merchants such as Harrods that are much more, I would say, stronger in the back half of the year, mainly in Q4. The rest of the year, they are lower. This is a seasonality effect. The other part is M&S. M&S is a significant merchant of us within the UK merchant base, and they are at least in this quarter in Q2 and going also into Q3, at least for a significant part of it, is currently not trading due to the cyber attack. This contributes to the overall weakness that you do see in the UK. We do expect it to change trend late Q3, but mainly in Q4 once M&S is trading back in full speed.

Oh, uh, related to the, uh, weakness, uh, seen outbound UK. Uh, I think this is, uh, this is coming out of, uh, 2 Reasons. 1 is, uh, uh, mix. That is driven from seasonality. We have a huge Merchants such as herods that are much more. I would say, uh, Stronger in the back half of the Year, mainly in Q4, um, and the rest of the year there, there, there are lower. So, this is a, a seasonality effect. The other part is MNS. MNS was, um, is uh, is a significant merchants of us within the UK, uh, Merchant base, and they are at least, uh, in this quarter in Q2 and going also into Q3, uh, at least for, uh, a significant part of it, uh, is currently, uh, not trading due to the Cyber attack. So, uh, so this

Contribute to the overall weakness that that you do see uh in in the UK, we do expect it uh to change trend.

Alan Katz: Harrods is going into its peak selling. We do expect the UK to grow again in share. As we have also a good pipeline coming out of the UK, we do expect it to continue going into 2026.

Uh, late Q3 but mainly in Q4 once, MNS is trading back in full speed Heroes is going into its pixel in. So we do expect the UK uh uh uh, to grow again in share. And as we have also a good pipeline coming out of the UK. Uh, we do expected to continue going into 2026.

Erica Mannion: Thank you. My second part of that question was just I am curious about kind of the other geos that you guys do not necessarily break out for outbound regions, specifically in parts of APAC where you are seeing the greatest inbound interest and kind of where you see the greatest opportunity to further penetrate those markets. Thanks.

Thank you. And yeah, my second part of that question was just, I'm curious about, um, kind of the other GEOS that you guys don't necessarily break out for outbound regions. Um, specifically in parts of like Asia, um, where you're seeing the greatest, um,

To further penetrate those markets. Thanks.

Alan Katz: Yeah. So, I think that, and I will connect it also to Ofer mentioning the slight increase in sales and marketing expense. We do see a lot of potential in APAC. We have recruited also additional individuals into sales and account management roles within the region. We have seen very nice traction coming out of Korea. We have seen growth, new growth now in funnel coming out of Taiwan, a new region for us. Australia continues to pick up as we assume the market leadership in global commerce out of Australia, and Japan continues to work as well. We mentioned Bandai Namco that launched with us out of Japan. We are expecting in Q2 we have additional growth with significant Japanese merchants coming also in Q3.

Yeah, so I think that, uh,

And I connected also to uh offer mentioning the slight increase in sales and marketing expense. So we we do see a lot of potential in APAC. Um, so we have recruited also uh, additional individuals into a sales and account management roles within the region. We have seen very nice traction. Coming out of a Korea. We have seen growth New Growth now in final coming out of Taiwan, and new and new region for us. Australia continues to pick up as we assume the market leadership, in global Commerce, out of out of Australia and and Japan continues to

Alan Katz: All in all, we continue to see the share of APAC growing within our pipeline, and hopefully, we will see that within a few years, it will take its share the same as the e-commerce share that it has on a global scale within our sales charts.

To to work as well. We mentioned the Bandai, Namco as it launched with us out of the Japan. We are expecting uh, uh, in Q2 we have additional growth um with significant uh Japanese uh Merchants coming also in Q3. So all in all we continue to see the share of AA growing uh within our Pipeline and and and hopefully we will see that uh within a few years it will take its uh its share uh the same as the e-commerce show that it has on a global scale within our sales choice.

Erica Mannion: Awesome. Thanks, you guys.

Awesome. Thanks you guys.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Brian Peterson with Raymond James. Please go ahead.

Your next question comes from the line of Brian Peterson with Raymond James. Please go ahead.

Amir Schlachet: Hi. Thanks for taking the question. This is John Messina on for Brian. On the land sizes and expansion versus expectations, can you maybe help frame for us what you are seeing from merchants, noticing any changes in initial land sizes or number of countries that merchants are launching with? Also on the expansion motion with legacy merchants, has the pace of new GO expansion been tracking in line with expectations this year? Thanks.

Hi, thanks for taking the question. This is John missing on for Brian, on the land sizes and expansion versus expectations. Can you maybe help frame for us? What you're seeing from Merchants noticing? Any changes in initial land sizes or number of countries that Merchants are launching with and then also on the expansion motion with Legacy, Merchants has the pace of new Geo expansion, been tracking, uh in line with expectations this year, thanks.

Alan Katz: By far, with the new GMV, most of it is new brands and new logos that are actually launching. Some of them are launches that were signed in the back half of last year. Some of them, and many of them, are launches that are happening now for merchants signed within this year. We do have some land and expand across some of our larger merchants such as Adidas, where we launched in Hong Kong, a significant lane, and a few others. But in the Pareto, we see more contribution coming out of new logos.

Well, uh, but by far with the new gmz, most of it is new brands and new logos that are actually launching. Some of them are launches that were signed, or the back half of of last year, some of them, and many of them are launches, uh, that are happening now. For merchant sign. Within this year, we do have some, uh, land and expand, uh, because, uh, because uh, some of our large Merchants such as the Adidas, but we uh, launched a Hong Kong significant Lane and a few others but um, but in the Pareto, we see more contribution coming out of, uh, out of new logos.

Amir Schlachet: Okay. Thanks. Helpful color there. Just one quick follow-up, if I may. On the Shopify partnership, we are 90 days after the extension and changes there. Just curious what you are specifically seeing on the funnel side. Realize you called out some increased competition, but also wanted to ask on the funnel. On the second derivative, are you seeing any elongation and maybe launch timing there? Thank you so much.

Okay, thanks. I hope we'll call her there and then just 1 quick, follow-up. If I may on the Shopify partnership, we're 90 days after the extension, uh, and and changes there just curious what you're specifically seeing on the funnel side, realize you call it out some increased competition but also wanted to ask on the funnel and then on the second derivative are you seeing any elongation and maybe launch timing there? Thank you so much.

Alan Katz: As indicated previously, as expected, once Shopify removed the exclusivity in the new model and moved into a preferred model, we have seen some increase in the competitive landscape. However, as we have a robust solution that was built over the last five years, it has an unparalleled scale experience working with Shopify, connecting to Shopify through different APIs. Some of them are exclusive APIs to us. We do see our win rates continue to be super high and a very low impact on our pipeline, especially on the enterprise side.

Oh, well as indicated the previously as expected, 1 shop removed. The, uh, the exclusivity, the new model and moved into a preferred model, we have seen, uh, uh, some, uh, increase in the competitive landscape. However, as we have a robust solution that was built over the last 5 years, it has unparalleled scale experience, working with Shopify, connecting to Shopify, all different API, some of them are exclusive apis to us. Um uh, we do see, uh, we do see our win rates, uh, continue to be super high, um and and and a very low impact on our uh, on our pipeline, especially on the Enterprise side.

Amir Schlachet: Thank you so much.

It would be much more seamless for the merchants versus the domestic experience. We work very closely with the Shopify product and development team. So far, we believe that we are, as indicated previously, in line to launch, I would say, the new solution within 2026 with a rollout plan that will be decided by Shopify according to their schedule.
