Coupang, Inc. (NYSE: CPNG) today announced financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2024.

Consolidated Highlights:

  • Net revenues were $7.9 billion, up 27% YoY on a reported basis and 32% YoY on an FX-neutral basis. Excluding Farfetch, the growth was 20% YoY on a reported basis and 25% YoY on an FX-neutral basis.
  • Gross profit increased 45% YoY to $2.3 billion. Gross profit margin was 28.8%, an improvement of 350 bps YoY. Excluding Farfetch, gross profit was $2.1 billion, growing 33% YoY, and gross profit margin was 28.1%.
  • Net income was $64 million and net income attributable to Coupang stockholders was $70 million, a decrease of $21 million from last year. Excluding Farfetch, net income attributable to Coupang stockholders was approximately $108 million for the quarter.
  • Diluted EPS was 4 cents, a decline of 1 cent over last year, primarily driven by the operating losses incurred at Farfetch. Excluding the Farfetch loss, diluted EPS was 6 cents.
  • Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $343 million with a margin of 4.4%, up 50 bps from last year. Excluding Farfetch, adjusted EBITDA was $345 million with a margin of 4.6%.
  • Operating cash flow for the trailing twelve months was $1.8 billion, a decrease of $805 million YoY. This is primarily due to certain non-recuring working capital benefits in the prior trailing twelve-month period.
  • Free cash flow was $935 million for the trailing twelve months, a decrease of $920 million YoY. This is primarily due to certain non-recuring working capital benefits in the prior trailing twelve-month period, as well as the timing of capital expenditure payments.

Segment Highlights:

  • Product Commerce segment net revenues were $6.9 billion, up 16% YoY on a reported basis and 20% on an FX-neutral basis.
  • Product Commerce Active Customers reached 22.5 million, growing 11% YoY.
  • Product Commerce segment adjusted EBITDA was $470 million, up $71 million YoY, with a margin of 6.8%, up 10 bps YoY and down 140bps QoQ.
  • Developing Offerings segment (including International, Coupang Eats, Play, Fintech and Farfetch) net revenues were $975 million, up 347% YoY on a reported basis and 356% on an FX-neutral basis. Excluding Farfetch, the growth was 146% YoY on a reported basis and 155% YoY on an FX-neutral basis.
  • Developing Offerings segment adjusted EBITDA was negative $127 million, a decrease of $34 million YoY and $73 million QoQ, which includes a negative $2 million impact from the consolidation of Farfetch.

“This quarter we continued the strong momentum we’ve seen throughout this year, delivering robust growth in revenues and margins,” said Gaurav Anand, CFO of Coupang. “Our newer offerings and categories, like Fulfillment and Logistics by Coupang (FLC) and R.Lux, a new luxury offering, are examples of the massive growth opportunity from selection expansion on Rocket Delivery. We also achieved an important milestone in Developing Offerings this quarter, reaching near break-even profitability in Farfetch, earlier than planned. We remain focused on our relentless pursuit of customer wow and operational excellence.”

Key Business Metrics and Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We review the key business and financial metrics discussed below. We use these measures to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans, and make strategic decisions.

Key Business Metrics

Net Revenues per Product Commerce Active Customer

Net revenues per Product Commerce Active Customer is the net revenues generated in a period divided by the total number of Product Commerce Active Customers in that period. A key driver of growth is increasing the frequency and the level of spend of customers who are shopping on our Product Commerce apps or websites. We therefore view net revenues per Product Commerce Active Customer as a key indicator of engagement and retention of our customers and our ability to drive future revenue growth, though there may be a short-term dilutive impact when a large number of new Product Commerce active customers are added in a recent period.

Product Commerce Active Customers

As of the last date of each reported period, we determine our number of Product Commerce Active Customers by counting the total number of individual customers who have ordered at least once directly from our Product Commerce apps or websites during the relevant period. A customer is anyone who has created an account on our apps or websites, identified by a unique email address. The change in Product Commerce Active Customers in a reported period captures both the inflow of new customers as well as the outflow of existing customers who have not made a purchase in the period. We view the number of Product Commerce Active Customers as an indicator of future growth in our net revenue, the reach of our network, the awareness of our brand, and the engagement of our customers.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We report our financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with additional useful information in evaluating our performance. These non-GAAP financial measures may be different than similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as substitutes for, financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These measures should only be used to evaluate our results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding U.S. GAAP measures.

Non-GAAP Measure

Definition

How We Use The Measure

Adjusted EBITDA

  • Net income (loss), excluding the effects of:
    - depreciation and amortization,
    - interest expense,
    - interest income,
    - other income (expense), net,
    - income tax expense (benefit),
    - equity-based compensation,
    - impairments, and
    - other items not reflective of our ongoing operations.
  • Provides information to management to evaluate and assess our performance and allocate internal resources.
  • We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are frequently used by investors and other interested parties in evaluating companies in the retail industry for period-to-period comparisons as they remove the impact of certain items that are not representative of our ongoing business, such as material non-cash items, acquisition-related transaction and restructuring costs, significant costs related to certain non-ordinary course legal and regulatory matters, and certain variable charges.

 

Adjusted EBITDA Margin

  • Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total net revenues.

Constant Currency Revenue

  • Constant currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant.
  • We define constant currency revenue as total revenue excluding the effect of foreign exchange rate movements, and use it to determine the constant currency revenue growth on a comparative basis.
  • Constant currency revenue is calculated by translating current period revenues using the prior period exchange rate.
  • The effect of currency exchange rates on our business is an important factor in understanding period-to-period comparisons. Our financial reporting currency is the U.S. dollar (“USD”) and changes in foreign exchange rates can significantly affect our reported results and consolidated trends. For example, our business generates sales predominantly in Korean Won (“KRW”), which are favorably affected as the USD weakens relative to the KRW, and unfavorably affected as the USD strengthens relative to the KRW.
  • We use constant currency revenue and constant currency revenue growth for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate comparisons between periods. We believe the presentation of our results on a constant currency basis in addition to U.S. GAAP results helps improve the ability to understand our performance because they exclude the effects of foreign currency volatility that are not indicative of our actual results of operations.

 

Constant Currency Revenue Growth

  • Constant currency revenue growth (as a percentage) is calculated by determining the increase in current period revenue over prior period revenue, where current period foreign currency revenue is translated using prior period exchange rates.

Free Cash Flow

  • Cash flow from operations
    Less: purchases of property and equipment,
    Plus: proceeds from sale of property and equipment.

 

  • Provides information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated from our ongoing operations that, after purchases and sales of property and equipment, can be used for strategic initiatives, including investing in our business and strengthening our balance sheet, including paying down debt, and paying dividends to stockholders.

Segment Gross Profit

  • Gross profit for a period attributable to each respective reportable segment.
  • We believe segment gross profit and segment gross profit margin are frequently used by investors and other interested parties in evaluating companies in the retail industry for period-to-period comparisons. However, other companies may calculate segment gross profit and segment gross profit margin in a manner different from ours and therefore they may not be directly comparable to similar terms used by other companies.

 

Segment Gross Profit Margin

  • Segment gross profit as a percentage of segment net revenues.

Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Coupang Stockholders

  • Net income attributable to Coupang Stockholders, excluding the impact of the Farfetch acquisition and the KFTC administrative fine.
  • We believe adjusted net income excluding Farfetch and adjusted diluted earnings per share excluding Farfetch provides useful supplemental information for investors, in the year of an acquisition, to compare our current earnings results from one period to another. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is a performance measure and should not be used as a measure of liquidity.

Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share

  • Adjusted net income excluding the impact of the Farfetch acquisition and the KFTC administrative fine divided by the weighted average dilutive shares outstanding for the period.

Total net revenues excluding Farfetch

  • Total net revenues excluding the impact of the Farfetch acquisition.
  • We believe total net revenues excluding Farfetch, gross profit excluding Farfetch, adjusted EBITDA excluding Farfetch and Developing Offerings net revenues excluding Farfetch and Developing Offerings net revenues, constant currency excluding Farfetch provide useful supplemental information for investors, in the year of a significant acquisition, to compare our revenues, gross profit, adjusted EBITDA and segment revenues from one period to another exclusive of certain items that impact comparability with the prior period. These measures are performance measures and should not be used as a measure of liquidity.

Gross Profit excluding Farfetch

  • Gross profit excluding the impact of the Farfetch acquisition.

Adjusted EBITDA excluding Farfetch

  • Adjusted EBITDA excluding the impact of the Farfetch acquisition.

Developing Offerings net revenues excluding Farfetch

  • Developing Offerings net revenues excluding the impact of the Farfetch acquisition.

Developing Offerings net revenues, constant currency excluding Farfetch

  • Developing Offerings net revenues, constant currency excluding the impact of the Farfetch acquisition.

Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Measures

A reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance measures to corresponding GAAP measures is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty of expenses that may be incurred in the future. Although, it is important to note that these factors could be material to Coupang’s results computed in accordance with GAAP. Certain amounts may not foot due to rounding.

The following tables present the reconciliations from each U.S. GAAP measure to its corresponding non-GAAP measure for the periods noted:
