From Jun 2024 to Dec 2024
Second quarter revenue grows 7% year-over-year to $84.6 million, within outlook range
Revises full year net revenue outlook reflecting pricing-related adjustments
Announces plan to reduce operating expenses and strengthen long-term results
Eventbrite (NYSE: EB), a global marketplace for shared experiences, reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024. The Second Quarter 2024 Shareholder Letter can be found on Eventbrite’s Investor Relations website at https://investor.eventbrite.com.
“Our second-quarter performance, while within our guidance, was pressured by the pricing-related headwinds related to our transition to a two-sided marketplace,” said Julia Hartz, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer. “We are taking action to refine the go-to-market strategy and reduce our expense structure to work towards profitability even despite the revised revenue outlook for the year. That said, we are encouraged by the growth in the consumer side of the business, namely in mobile app adoption and tickets driven by Eventbrite’s discovery experiences. I’m confident that leaning into our marketplace strategy will enable long-term growth for creators and an increased engagement of consumers as the desire to gather at live events continues.”

Business Outlook
The company has updated its outlook for fiscal year 2024, based on factors that include:
As a result, the company now expects fiscal third quarter 2024 revenue to be in the range of $74 to $77 million and $318 million to $325 million for fiscal year 2024.
The company has reviewed its product roadmap, organizational structure, and staffing with a focus on continuing support for the strategic transformation, increasing operating efficiency, and lowering costs. Today, the company announced the elimination of roughly 100 positions and initiated plans to reduce other costs. The company expects to incur up to $7 million in expenses related to severance and cost-reduction actions during Q3, and that these actions will reduce the company’s total annualized operating costs by $30 million.
At the mid-point of its revenue outlook, the company now expects a 10% Adjusted EBITDA margin for the full year 2024, excluding the impact of restructuring costs and other items.
*We have not provided an outlook for GAAP net income (loss) or GAAP net income (loss) margin or reconciliations of expected Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income (loss) or expected Adjusted EBITDA margin to GAAP net income (loss) margin, because GAAP net income (loss) and GAAP net income (loss) margin on a forward-looking basis are not available without unreasonable efforts due to the potential variability and complexity of the items that are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, such as share-based compensation expense, foreign exchange gains and losses, and other non-recurring expenses.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We believe that the use of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin is helpful to our investors in understanding and evaluating our results of operations and useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of our business performance as they are metrics used by management in assessing the health of our business and our operating performance, making operating decisions, and performing strategic planning and annual budgeting. These measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results of operations as reported under GAAP. In addition, other companies may not calculate non-GAAP financial measures in the same manner as we calculate them, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. You are encouraged to evaluate the adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate. Some amounts in this press release may not add due to rounding.
Adjusted EBITDA
We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, interest expense, interest income, employer taxes related to employee transactions, other (income) expense net, which consists of foreign exchange rate gains and losses, and income tax provision (benefit). Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
Some of the limitations of Adjusted EBITDA include (i) Adjusted EBITDA does not properly reflect capital spending that occurs off of the income statement or account for future contractual commitments, (ii) 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 and (iii) Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the interest and principal required to service our indebtedness. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we expect to incur expenses similar to the adjustments in this release. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by these expenses or any unusual or non-routine items. When evaluating our performance, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including our net income (loss) and other GAAP results.
Adjusted EBITDA Margin
Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue. Because of the limitations described above, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin alongside other financial performance measures, including net income (loss), net income (loss) margin and our other GAAP results.
