EverQuote guides Q3 2026 revenue to $198M-$208M and reaffirms $1B annual revenue target
EverQuote guided third-quarter 2026 revenue to $198 million to $208 million and reaffirmed its confidence in reaching $1 billion in annual revenue on the timeline communicated last November. The company reported second-quarter revenue of $195.1 million, including auto insurance revenue of $172.1 million and home insurance revenue of $23 million, with adjusted EBITDA of $30.1 million. Variable marketing dollars were $56.9 million, and GAAP net income was $19.2 million. CEO Jayme Mendal highlighted record carrier and agent revenue, a ramp with one major returning carrier, and over 100% year-over-year growth in revenue flowing through Smart Campaigns, which is now used by seven of the top ten carriers. CFO Joseph Sanborn noted the company ended the quarter with no debt and $192 million in cash, repurchased 578,000 shares for approximately $9 million, and expects planned operating expense step-ups of roughly $1 million to $1.25 million in the third quarter and about $0.5 million more in the fourth quarter tied to AI investments.
Wall Street has issued rare downbeat forecasts for EverQuote, BankUnited, and BancFirst. EverQuote faces concerns over expensive marketing campaigns hurting profitability, with its stock at $24.89 implying a 6.1x forward EV/EBITDA valuation. BankUnited's 5.5% annual net interest income growth over five years lagged peers, and its 2.9% net interest margin is among the worst in banking, while earnings per share grew just 1.2% annually. BancFirst saw 7.8% annual revenue growth over two years, slower than peers, with a projected 2 percentage point efficiency ratio increase signaling rising expenses and EPS growth of only 9.2% annually underperforming the sector.
StockStory highlights Boot Barn and Riley Exploration Permian as Russell 2000 stocks to watch, flags EverQuote as one to sell
StockStory identified two Russell 2000 stocks worth investigating and one that underwhelms. Boot Barn, a western-inspired apparel retailer with a market cap of $5.31 billion, stands out for its aggressive new store rollouts and same-store sales growth averaging 6.3% over the past two years, while its free cash flow margin jumped by 5.6 percentage points. Riley Exploration Permian, an oil and natural gas driller in the Permian Basin with a market cap of $749.2 million, is noted for 30.8% annual revenue growth over eight years, a 76.6% gross margin, and a 17.3% free cash flow margin. EverQuote, an online insurance marketplace with a market cap of $701.8 million, is flagged as a stock to sell due to excessive marketing spend signaling little organic demand.
EverQuote shares jumped 6.9% in the last trading session to close at $23.2, supported by heavy trading volume. The move extends the stock's 14.9% gain over the past four weeks. The company continues to benefit from its proprietary data asset and AI-driven marketplace, the long-term shift of P&C customer acquisition to online channels, and a carrier environment focused on growing policies in force. First-quarter results showed continued revenue growth, higher variable marketing dollars, and record adjusted EBITDA, with management guiding for another year-over-year step-up in the second quarter. EverQuote is expected to report quarterly earnings of $0.66 per share, a 69.2% year-over-year increase, on revenues of $190.57 million, up 21.7%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days, and the stock carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
Etsy, ACV Auctions, and EverQuote shares soar on strong Prime Day sales and falling yields
Shares of Etsy, ACV Auctions, and EverQuote surged in afternoon trading after record Prime Day sales and falling Treasury yields boosted sentiment for digital platforms. U.S. online sales hit $8.3 billion, up 5.3% year-over-year, signaling robust consumer demand that supports advertising spending on platforms like Google and Meta. The 10-year Treasury yield fell below 4.5%, lowering the discount rate on future cash flows and lifting valuations for consumer internet companies. Etsy jumped 4.6%, ACV Auctions rose 2.7%, and EverQuote gained 4.5%, with Etsy reaching a new 52-week high of $78.22 per share.
