eBay Inc
eBay runs a large online marketplace where people and businesses list items for sale, and buyers shop through fixed-price listings or auctions. It is best known for helping individuals sell used, collectible, rare, and hard-to-find goods, but many professional merchants also use it to reach buyers looking for specific products. The company makes money mainly by charging listing fees, final-value fees, and other seller services tied to selling on its platform. Buyers use the site because it offers a wide mix of inventory that is often not easy to find in traditional stores, while sellers use it because eBay gives them access to a large audience without running their own storefront. What makes eBay different is that it sits in the middle of person-to-person and small-business commerce rather than owning products itself. It is closer to a digital swap meet and specialty marketplace than a standard online retailer, which means its business depends on matching the right buyers and sellers and making transactions easy and trusted.

Beat and raise: eBay said Q2 results beat consensus and came in above the high end of guidance across all key metrics, with GMV, revenue, operating income and EPS all growing at a double-digit pace.
Core growth: GMV rose 14% to $22.4 billion and revenue rose 14% to $3.13 billion, helped by strong U.S. performance and improving international trends.
Strategic mix: Focused categories, C2C and recommerce each grew more than 20% and together topped 70% of total GMV, showing the business is becoming more concentrated in eBay’s priority areas.
Depop impact: eBay closed the Depop acquisition and said it strengthens its fashion, C2C and younger-consumer reach; management also raised full-year outlooks while noting Depop will dilute near-term margins and EPS.
New growth engines: eBay Live grew roughly 8x year over year, Vehicles continued to scale, and shipping and AI tools were highlighted as important drivers of marketplace velocity and conversion.
