What Went Well and What Went Wrong

What Went Well

  • First proprietary volume growth since 2021: “Proprietary Service Requests and Leads return to growth for the first time since Q1 2021” .
  • Product/matching upgrades: “We… implemented an LLM… a helper… allows us to get to the right question or move them to the right task… keep the homeowner going and not end up with the wrong task” .
  • Conversion metrics strengthening: “In June, our win rates… are up over 20%. In July… tracking to more than 30% up year over year… hire rates are coming right along” .

What Went Wrong

  • Network channel headwinds: Service Requests -59% and Leads -76% in Network Channels YoY, driving total SRs (-8%) and total leads (-17%) declines .
  • Adjusted EBITDA declined 22% YoY to $33.0M on lower revenue and increased consumer marketing costs per SR; consumer marketing expense rose to 35% of revenue (consolidated) vs 27% last year .
  • Macro softness caused an estimated 200–300 bps drag vs prior run rates, with lower homeowner intent in April/May before improving; management remains cautious on the environment .

Management Commentary

  • “Last night, we reported our first quarter of proprietary volume growth since the 2021… this time, it will be profitable revenue growth.” — CEO Jeff Kip .
  • “We… implemented an LLM… if the homeowner is confused… they can tell us in their own words… get to the right question… keep the homeowner going” .
  • “We acquired 39% fewer Pros in Q2 versus last year, but the aggregate Pro lifetime value sold in Q2 was down just 4% year over year.” — CFO Andrew Russakoff .
  • “Expect network volume… roughly stable the rest of the year… improvement in YoY revenue comparisons will come from… revenue per lead” — CEO Jeff Kip .

Q&A Highlights

  • Revenue trajectory and mix: Management expects proprietary SR/Leads to grow at similar rates to Q2 and revenue per lead to rise as legacy Ads pros migrate to the single platform, stabilizing network volumes near Q2 exit rates .
  • Margins and spend: Consumer marketing as % of revenue elevated on paid proprietary channels; contribution margins expected “fairly stable” in Q3–Q4 with operating leverage flowing through in Q4 absent last year’s fixed expense spike .
  • Macro: April softness impacted hiring; by June/July, win and hire rates rebounded double digits; management embeds cautious macro in run-rate outlook .
  • Buybacks: $59.9M repurchased in Q2 period; future pace bounded by tax-free spin-off limitations but Board remains opportunistic .
  • Capacity: Under-indexed to larger pros; online enroll pilot suggests incremental low-CAC capacity; path to mid-single-digit revenue growth in 2026 with flat contribution margins and EBITDA growth .

Key Takeaways for Investors

  • Revenue/EPS beat with sequential revenue growth (+13% QoQ) and solid GAAP profitability; Adjusted EBITDA improved QoQ to $33.0M though below consensus on higher consumer marketing mix *. Values retrieved from S&P Global.
  • Proprietary channels inflected positively (SR +7%, Leads +16% YoY); network pressure persists but is stabilizing at lower levels, reducing one major source of volatility .
  • Structural mix changes (homeowner choice; Ads-to-single platform) should lift revenue per lead through 2H25, supporting a path to mid-single-digit revenue growth in 2026 with flat contribution margins and EBITDA growth .
  • Conversion KPIs improving materially (win/hire rates +20–30% YoY into June/July), indicating product/matching enhancements are translating to economic value for pros and sustainable demand quality .
  • Share repurchases ($59.9M) and strong liquidity ($362.5M cash) provide support for per-share metrics; constraints from the spin-off limit near-term buyback cadence, but Board remains opportunistic .
  • Near-term trading setup: Positive narrative on proprietary growth and conversion improvements vs caution on macro and EBITDA miss; watch for 2H25 revenue per lead uplift and Ads migration execution as catalysts .
  • Medium-term thesis: AI-led matching, larger-pro targeting, and online enroll can expand capacity and unit economics, enabling revenue growth with operating leverage on a disciplined fixed cost base .
