According to InvestingPro data, the stock shows significant volatility with a beta of 2.98 and is trading near its 52-week high.
Wayfair reported quarterly revenue that exceeded both Raymond James and consensus expectations, driven by accelerating sales and market share gains. The company achieved approximately 6% year-over-year revenue growth during the quarter, excluding the impact of its Germany operations. While the company is not yet profitable, with a loss per share of $2.88 over the last twelve months, InvestingPro analysis shows analysts expect profitability in 2025 with forecasted earnings of $0.60 per share.
