Factors to Consider
Increasing adoption of the product portfolio, especially various AI products, is likely to have driven revenues in the to-be-reported quarter. Among AI products, in the last reported quarter, management highlighted that its key offering — AI Website Builder — received strong responses from Self Creators and Partners. This solution created a professional website that meets the user’s requirements through a conversational AI chat experience.
Strengthening momentum in WIX Studio is another tailwind. In the last reported quarter, management noted that more than 1 million Studio accounts have been created by agencies and designers since the rollout of WIX Studio in August 2023. It also contributed to strong revenue growth from the Partners business.
Average revenues per subscription are likely to have been driven by an expansive product portfolio and strong commerce growth. Increasing revenues from B2B businesses are an added positive.
WIX expects higher bookings, favorable gross margin mix and operational efficiencies to drive free cash flow performance.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues from the Creative Subscriptions and Business Solutions segments is pegged at $313 million and $120 million, respectively.
However, increasing expenses, a volatile macroeconomic environment and unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations remain concerning.
