Fiverr Announces Third Quarter 2023 Results
Nov 9, 2023

  • Delivered strong results for Q3’23. Our focus and execution across our core marketplace and Fiverr Business Solutions allowed us to deliver revenue and Adjusted EBITDA at the high end of our guidance.

  • Improving Adjusted EBITDA margins for 2023. We are raising our FY’23 Adjusted EBITDA guidance range to $58.0 - $60.0 million, representing Adjusted EBITDA margin of 16.3% at the midpoint, as we continue to operate with focus and discipline.

  • Continued upmarket progress driving strong SPB expansion. We continue to move upmarket, with better quality and more complex projects in our core marketplace, continued migration of users towards Fiverr Pro, and the expansion of several new partners on Fiverr Certified. As a result, SPB increased $6 sequentially to $271 this quarter.

  • Growth in Promoted Gigs and Seller Plus contributing to take rate expansion. Both programs continue to expand - we recently added Promoted Gigs to our Fiverr Pro marketplace, and Seller Plus subscribers have now reached 25,000. These initiatives contributed to the incremental increase of our take rate to 31.3% this quarter.

  • Expanding the leadership team. We are pleased to announce Matti Yahav as our new CMO as of November 1st. Mr. Yahav brings with him many years of marketing experience and has worked at some of the most recognizable brands. We also welcomed Dr. Yael Garten to our board of directors. She has 20 years of extensive experience in data science, machine learning, and converting data into actionable products and business strategies.
