Non-GAAP net income is expected to be $11 million to $13 million, with Adjusted EBITDA projected at $18 million to $20 million Q3 2025 Financial Guidance | Metric | Q3 2025 Guidance | | :-------------------- | :--------------- | | Total revenue | $198M - $203M | | YoY Growth | 16% - 18% | | GAAP net income (loss)| ($13M) - ($11M) | | Non-GAAP net income | $11M - $13M | | Adjusted EBITDA | $18M - $20M | [Full-Year 2025 Guidance](index=2&type=section&id=Full-Year%202025%20Guidance) For the full year 2025, ACV anticipates total revenue of $765 million to $775 million, reflecting a 20% to 22% year-over-year growth. The company expects a GAAP net loss of ($51) million to ($47) million, with non-GAAP net income projected at $38 million to $42 million and Adjusted EBITDA at $68 million to $72 million Full-Year 2025 Financial Guidance | Metric | Full-Year 2025 Guidance | | :-------------------- | :---------------------- | | Total revenue | $765M - $775M | | YoY Growth | 20% - 22% | | GAAP net income (loss)| ($51M) - ($47M) | | Non-GAAP net income | $38M - $42M | | Adjusted EBITDA | $68M - $72M | [Guidance Assumptions](index=2&type=section&id=Guidance%20Assumptions) Key assumptions underpinning ACV's financial guidance include a flat to modestly down dealer wholesale market year-over-year in 2025. Conversion rates and wholesale price depreciation are expected to follow normal seasonal patterns, and non-GAAP Operating Expense (excluding Cost of Revenue) is projected to increase approximately 11% year-over-year - The dealer wholesale market is expected to be **flat to modestly down year over year in 2025**[10](index=10&type=chunk) - Conversion rates and wholesale price depreciation are expected to follow normal seasonal patterns[10](index=10&type=chunk) - Non-GAAP Operating Expense (excluding Cost of Revenue) is expected to increase approximately **11% year-over-year**[10](index=10&type=chunk) Non-GAAP Financial Measures [Definition and Rationale](index=2&type=section&id=Definition%20and%20Rationale) ACV provides supplemental non-GAAP financial measures to offer investors a clearer view of operating performance by excluding items not indicative of core results. These measures, while useful for period-to-period comparisons and internal management, should not be considered alternatives to GAAP results due to their material impact and recurring nature - Non-GAAP financial measures assist investors in making period-to-period comparisons by providing a view of operating results without items not indicative of core operations[10](index=10&type=chunk)[11](index=11&type=chunk) - These measures are used by management for assessing business health, determining incentive compensation, and evaluating operating performance, as well as for internal planning and forecasting[12](index=12&type=chunk) - Non-GAAP measures should not be construed as an alternative to GAAP results, as excluded items often have a material impact and can be recurring[11](index=11&type=chunk) [Adjusted EBITDA](index=4&type=section&id=Adjusted%20EBITDA) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss, adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, interest (income) expense, provision for income taxes, and other one-time non-recurring items. While used by management for business assessment, it has limitations, such as not reflecting capital commitments, stock-based compensation, or tax payments, and may not be comparable to other companies' measures - Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss, adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, interest (income) expense, provision for income taxes, and other one-time non-recurring items[13](index=13&type=chunk) - Limitations include not reflecting future capital commitments, the need to replace underlying assets (despite non-cash D&A), stock-based compensation impact, non-operating income/expenses, contingent consideration adjustments, and tax payments[14](index=14&type=chunk) - The measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to varying calculation methods[14](index=14&type=chunk) [Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) and Operating Expenses](index=4&type=section&id=Non-GAAP%20Net%20Income%20(Loss)%20and%20Operating%20Expenses) Non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP operating expenses are defined by excluding stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and other one-time, non-recurring items from their GAAP counterparts. These adjustments aim to facilitate more meaningful period-to-period comparisons by removing non-cash or non-recurring impacts, but they also carry limitations similar to Adjusted EBITDA, such as not reflecting capital expenditures or certain one-time charges - Non-GAAP net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and other one-time, non-recurring items[16](index=16&type=chunk) - Non-GAAP operating expenses are defined by excluding the same items as non-GAAP net income (loss)[16](index=16&type=chunk) - Exclusions are made to allow for more meaningful comparisons between operating results from period to period, particularly for stock-based compensation (due to valuation variability) and acquired intangible asset amortization (due to non-cash, multi-year impact)[17](index=17&type=chunk) Operating and Financial Metrics [Marketplace GMV](index=5&type=section&id=Marketplace%20GMV) Marketplace GMV (Gross Merchandise Value) is a key indicator of ACV's business health, scale, and growth, primarily driven by the volume and dollar value of Marketplace Unit transactions. It is defined as the total dollar value of vehicles transacted within a period, excluding auction and ancillary fees - Marketplace GMV is primarily driven by the volume and dollar value of Marketplace Unit transactions[21](index=21&type=chunk) - It acts as an indicator of ACV's success, signaling dealer and buyer satisfaction, and the health, scale, and growth of the business[21](index=21&type=chunk) - Marketplace GMV is defined as the total dollar value of vehicles transacted within the applicable period, excluding any auction and ancillary fees[21](index=21&type=chunk) [Marketplace Units](index=5&type=section&id=Marketplace%20Units) Marketplace Units is a crucial metric for ACV's potential growth in GMV and revenue, reflecting customer engagement and market share in wholesale transactions. It represents the number of vehicles successfully transacted, even if subsequently unwound (which has been immaterial). This metric has generally increased with territory expansion, new dealer partnerships, and increased share from existing customers - Marketplace Units is a key indicator of potential for growth in Marketplace GMV and revenue[22](index=22&type=chunk) - It demonstrates overall customer engagement and market share of wholesale transactions in the United States[22](index=22&type=chunk) - Marketplace Units are defined as the number of vehicles transacted within the applicable period, including those successfully sold even if subsequently unwound[22](index=22&type=chunk)[23](index=23&type=chunk) Financial Statements (Unaudited) [Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations](index=9&type=section&id=Condensed%20Consolidated%20Statements%20of%20Operations) The unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations detail ACV's financial performance for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, and 2024.
