Shopify's Q3 Earnings Show 32% Revenue Gain
"The standout driver was Merchant Solutions, which surged 38% year-over-year to $2.145B. This segment now represents 75% of total revenue and reflects both pricing increases and expanded adoption across the platform. Subscription Solutions grew at a slower but still solid 15% pace to $699M, showing the diversification of the business model beyond transaction-dependent revenue. Revenue totaled $2.84B, beating the $2.81B consensus estimate by 1.2%. Gross profit climbed 24% to $1.39B, while operating income rose 21% to $343M."
"Operating cash flow came in at $513M against minimal capital expenditure of just $6M, underscoring the asset-light nature of the platform. The company maintains a fortress balance sheet with $2.414B in cash and equivalents against total liabilities of $2.213B. Shareholders' equity sits at $12.511B, reflecting years of profitable operations and disciplined capital allocation. What stands out here is the consistency. Free cash flow margins stayed elevated at 18%, and management guided for Q4 free cash flow margins to remain slightly above Q3 levels."
