The consensus estimate for service revenues is pegged at $76 million, indicating 76.7% year-over-year growth. We are expecting the company to report strong growth from last-mile delivery, ocean transportation, packaging and warehouse services in the quarter.

The consensus mark for product revenues is pegged at $215 million, indicating 95.5% year-over-year growth. Product revenues from GigaCloud 1P are expected to have been driven by an increase in the GigaCloud Marketplace GMV, the number of buyers, and spend per active buyer. Product revenues from off-platform e-commerce are likely to have benefited from an increase in the number of sales channels and the sales in third-party off-platform e-commerce.

Robust sales, along with strong operating performance, are expected to have positively impacted the bottom line in the to-be-reported quarter, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for which is pegged at 71 cents, suggesting 57.8% year-over-year growth.
