This call is being recorded and a webcast will be available for replay on our IR website. I would now like to turn the call over to Niraj. Thanks, Ryan, and good morning everyone. We're pleased to be here today to discuss our second quarter results with you. The second quarter was a resounding success defined by accelerating sales and share gain in tandem with expanding profitability. As we've discussed over the last few years, we can and will grow profitably while taking significant share in the market. We operate the business by balancing investing for the future with growing our current profitability with the objective of maximizing EBITDA and free cash flow over the long term. The second quarter was a nice proof point of the journey that we've been on and even more exciting of what is to come year-over-year. Revenue growth of 6%, excluding the impact of Germany, marks the highest growth rate we have seen since early 2021. Our over 6% adjusted EBITDA margin demonstrates the significant leverage in our model and, as previewed in our Investor Day two years ago, is just the beginning of what we believe we can achieve over time. Switching gears, as we started the quarter, there was intense focus from investors on the ramifications of tariffs on our sector and how this would impact Wayfair's competitive position. As we've previously described, the marketplace forces of our inventory-like model give us unmatched flexibility with our global network of more than 20,000 suppliers offering over 30 million products and constant competition to present the strongest value to the customer. The benefits of this model continue to prove self-evident despite the various ebbs and flows of the broad business environment. Specifically, when we look at the actual items that customers are viewing and purchasing today, prices have remained relatively consistent with the first quarter. As we spoke about in the spring, suppliers take different approaches to managing cost increases. While some may pass through price increases, others who want to win share in a demand-constrained environment will choose to keep their prices more competitive and use all the methods at their disposal to do so. Our model allows us to surface the products with the best value for our customers, enabling us and our suppliers to gain share and grow revenue. Pricing consistency is largely reflected in our results on average order value as well. Sequential growth in the second quarter mirrored what we saw last year. It's worth talking through some of the moving pieces. AOV is an output of unit prices, items per order, and mix. We've seen some modest growth in average items per order, but mix is the primary driver of year-over-year AOV growth. Our specialty retail brands in Perigold continue to outperform due to the peak of the outdoor category in which we're a large participant, and Wayfair Professional posted double-digit growth after a few quarters of increasing momentum. The strength in our top line was a combination of healthy AOV growth and a nice step up in order growth from Q1. This is partially a function of the new long cycle initiatives that we've been seeding, and many of those efforts have started to bear fruit in 2025. I'll quickly run through a few of those now, but I'd encourage anyone less familiar with Wayfair to review some of our prior calls for more detail. We introduced Wayfair Verified in the fourth quarter, a curation program designed to give customers a shortcut to items in the catalog that reflect the highest quality and value standards across every style and price point. Wayfair Verified is an editorial review program where merchants hand inspect key items and provide firsthand detail on why they have selected that specific item. The verified check mark provides a guidepost for shoppers as they navigate our endless aisle, and the response from customers has been very positive. These items are driving outsized performance, converting over 25% better, achieving approximately 20% higher net promoter scores, and generating higher repeat purchase behavior compared to nonverified items. The number of items in the program and the prominence of them in the experience will continue to grow over the course of the year. The second initiative to call out is Wayfair Rewards, our paid loyalty program that launched last holiday season. The initial excitement we saw for Wayfair Rewards at the time of launch continues to gain traction, with member growth and customer lifetime value curves exceeding our initial expectations. We'll have more detail to share on the success we're having in the not too distant future. Finally, physical retail continues to generate momentum across our portfolio of brands. May marked the one year anniversary of our first large format Wayfair store outside of Chicago. We saw an impressive in store response to major promotional events in the quarter like Way Day and Memorial Day, showcasing the power of bringing the Wayfair brand to life in an omnichannel experience. While the sales halo in the metro area from the store has been tremendous, the impact on categories where Wayfair is less top of mind is even more pronounced. In the Chicago DMA, we've seen over a 50% increase in lower ticket frequency purchases like kitchen accessories and a more than 35% increase in higher consideration home improvement purchases like bathroom renovation items and kitchen cabinets. Earlier this year we announced additional Wayfair stores coming to Atlanta in 2026 and New York in 2027. Just this past week we announced plans for a Wayfair store outside of Denver to open in late 2026. We're excited to see the impact that these stores have in these key metros as we look to replicate the success we've had in Chicago. We also opened our first Perigold store in May in Highland Village in Houston, and it's off to a great start with a second store opening in West Palm Beach this fall. These are just three initiatives. The full list of initiatives is quite long, and some of the most exciting ones are due to the tech replatforming efforts over the last few years. Ongoing improvements in the shopping experience, Gen AI powered enhancements for customers and suppliers, and an expansion of our supply chain capabilities are just a few of the areas seeing rapid advances. Stepping back now, the roadmap we have on these various initiatives combined with our relentless focus on top tier execution paints an exciting picture ahead where Wayfair is accelerating share capture and growth. All this is possible due to the deep partnerships we have with our suppliers across technology and people, but also via deep operational integration across all aspects of their business. Our logistics offering is one of our key competitive moats and an area where we see growing supplier eagerness to lean in. As a reminder to those new to Wayfair, CastleGate is our proprietary logistics network spanning inbound logistics, storage, and outbound fulfillment. This is possible due to the exhaustive technology and operations with more than 60 buildings totaling 22 million sq ft across multiple continents. We've been investing in CastleGate since 2015 and have built out one of the world's only networks custom designed for the fragile, heavy, and bulky products that define the home category. CastleGate Forwarding is our inbound logistics and ocean freight forwarding operation. We enable suppliers to maintain a regular flow of goods as production shifts around the globe and they fill up operations in new geographies. Many of our suppliers are small businesses who individually lack the volume to consistently secure cost effective and reliable ocean freight capacity on their own. Our forwarding services provide access to large, high quality ocean carriers on amenable terms, which we can then share at competitive rates with our suppliers. We enable this by not just providing the transportation capability to move the goods, but by also offering cost-effective ways to consolidate the goods to enable forward positioning to many locations. We've seen a 40% year-over-year increase in total volume using our CastleGate forwarding offerings over the last year, driven by increases in both active supplier shipping on our service and average containers per supplier. We've also expanded to new markets like Brazil and India, unlocking additional volume and enabling suppliers to more easily diversify their production footprint. Recent supply chain volatility has only reinforced the value we offer our suppliers. In fact, we've seen a more than 30% increase in long-term inbound commitments with suppliers compared to where we started the year. Once product has made its way into the domestic markets, suppliers are keen to leverage our CastleGate fulfillment network as the best way to forward position their products. The percentage of our revenue that comes from products shipped out of our own fulfillment centers, what we call CastleGate penetration, sits at roughly 25% today, up about 400 basis points year-over-year. The benefits from the CastleGate network are numerous. Suppliers achieve broad forward positioning and speed badging, which lifts conversion, lowers incidents and return rates, lowers ship costs, and thereby lowers retail prices to consumers. Lower prices, of course, drive conversion and enhance customer perception, leading to improved customer lifetime value. Logistics is one of the few areas where improvements help the supplier, the customer, and Wayfair all at the same time. With the uptick in CastleGate penetration, we've seen the percentage of items on site with speed badging increased by over 800 basis points year-over-year. The percentage of items with one and two day badges increased by approximately 400 basis points as we exited the second quarter. We've also seen a nice drop in average ship distance per order versus last year, driven by the growth in penetration. CastleGate further enhances the customer experience from improved reliability, with materially higher exact on-time reliability rates than dropship, driven by our tight control over fulfillment and carrier partnerships. This enhances the customer order-to-delivery experience and results in higher customer NPS. Suppliers enjoy the benefits they get from participating in the CastleGate network, and one piece of feedback we've heard over the years is a desire to take advantage of our capabilities for more of their order volume. To that end, we're excited to share a key development in our logistics offering, the expansion and marketing of CastleGate to suppliers for fulfilling orders outside of their Wayfair business. What we call multi-channel has existed in the background for quite some time, but in a different format and a very small scale used primarily for clearing distressed inventory. Over the past 18 months, we've invested in operational and technology efforts to evolve this offering into a comprehensive third-party logistics service tailored for the home category. Pick and Ship is our core service offering and provides suppliers with competitive rates, premium service, integrated inventory management, and streamlined order fulfillment for any of their customers. After testing with a small subset of suppliers in 2024, we launched the full offering to our entire supplier base earlier this year. The response has been resounding. Multi-channel volumes are rapidly scaling, and we now have hundreds of suppliers utilizing the offering. We have line of sight to continued momentum as existing multi-channel suppliers are growing their inbound volumes and with a healthy pipeline of new suppliers onboarding to the program. For suppliers, multi-channel provides a competitive 3PL alternative specializing in heavier, larger home goods. For Wayfair, the benefits are significant as well. First, we generate an additional revenue stream and profit center that is accretive to adjusted EBITDA margins. Second, and perhaps more importantly, multi-channel opens up the next leg of CastleGate penetration by growing the inventory pool with which we can offer an enhanced customer experience. Suppliers can now more efficiently include a broader product set in CastleGate and can stock it deeper, expanding our offering of forward-positioned items and growing their in-stock rates, translating to better speed and lower prices for customers and improving our network efficiency. Ultimately, the multi-channel offering creates a win for our suppliers, a win for our customers, and a win for Wayfair. That's the philosophy we bring to everything we do. Every dollar we spend solves for the best outcome across our customers, suppliers, and Wayfair. Two decades of this approach has taught us that building great things takes time, but when done with thought, care, and prudence, we can have a payoff well worth the wait. You're seeing some of that this quarter. With years of work we've done leading to some of the best growth and profitability flow through our business that we've seen since the pandemic, we couldn't be more excited for what lies ahead in 2025 and beyond. Thank you. With that, let me turn it over to Kate. Thanks Niraj and good morning everyone. Let's dive into our results for the second quarter. Starting with the top line, net revenue grew 5% year-over-year and 6% excluding the impact of our exit from Germany. This was driven by strong performance across all of our brands and geographies, with our U.S. business up over 5% and our international segment growing over 3% compared to the second quarter of last year, showcasing the momentum we're seeing in Canada, the U.K., and Ireland. Our Q2 sequential order growth of 10% reflects strong execution and share capture despite a complex operating backdrop. Let me continue to walk down the P&L. As I do, please note that the remaining financials include depreciation and amortization, but exclude equity-based compensation, related taxes, and other adjustments. I will use the same basis when discussing our outlook as well. Gross margin for the quarter came in at 30.1% of net revenue. For over a year now, we've discussed how our ability to measure demand elasticity in virtually real time enables us to make tactical investments on a level of granularity and precision that few other retailers can replicate. The result of this work drives our share spread wider and leads to outcomes like we saw in the second quarter, growing orders as well as growing gross profit dollars, and we continue to see high return from these investments today. Joerg spoke at length about CastleGate and the ways that our model is advantaged as we drive penetration higher. This gives us more flexibility as we think about strategic areas of reinvestment and our goal to maximize adjusted EBITDA dollars. Multichannel is an important part of that puzzle, so it might be worthwhile to walk through the economics as it starts to scale. Multichannel revenue gets recognized as net revenue and program costs mostly sit in cost of goods sold. The offering has a similar gross margin profile to the business in aggregate and critically the flow through becomes very attractive as we think about bridging from the gross margin rate of the multichannel business to its profit contribution. The costs after gross profit are much smaller than they are for the business at large, meaning multichannel has a variable profit profile closer to its gross margin, making for accretive economics as this business grows. This is an important concept that we've discussed in pieces before but bears some reiteration now. We are always solving for growing multi quarter adjusted EBITDA dollars. We achieve this by optimizing revenue growth with our flow through after accounting for gross profit, customer service and merchant fees, and advertising costs. Most of these expenses are largely variable like gross profit and customer service and merchant fees, or can be dialed up and down based on payback. Like advertising expense, these flow through dollars offset our selling operations, technology, general and administrative or SOTG&A expense, our bucket of fixed costs. Let's walk through how we did on that basis this quarter. Customer service and merchant fees came in at 3.6% of net revenue. For the quarter, advertising was 11.4%, showing a solid path of sequential declines from the peak Q4 2024 and Q1 2025 levels. There are multiple factors coming together to drive the advertising leverage seen in this quarter. First, as we've shared in the past, we are rigorous about holding each of our channels to specific payback periods and that we adjust spend when testing data indicates that we are over or under our threshold. We're also seeing some efficiency here from areas where testing data has shown we should pull back spend to hold to our target. We are constantly evaluating the effectiveness of our marketing spend and due to our proprietary ad tech stack and tooling, we can nimbly react to ROI data. Second, as we discussed last year, we made a sizable push into the middle and upper funnel channels beginning in the fourth quarter of last year. Some of those were more nascent channels to Wayfair like TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and more where we were testing the efficacy of these investments last fall. We explained how there is an initial deleverage period that comes as you ramp to scaled spending across several channels at the same time and that many of these take multiple quarters to pay back. These investments set the stage for future revenue and you see this bearing fruit here today as revenue dollars associated with prior quarter spend flows in. It's also worth noting that we are seeing encouraging momentum in direct traffic starting with our loyalty program. Wayfair Rewards is more than a way to generate incremental share of wallet and order momentum, but naturally leads to more direct traffic as customers return to Wayfair to spend the rewards dollars on their next find for their home. We also continue to see healthy engagement with our app, where the second quarter marked the highest level of installs since Q4 2020, and the percent of Wayfair U.S. revenue from the app continues to climb steadily to all-time highs of approximately 30%. Now, coming back to the concept of flow through, we drove a rate of 15.2% in the second quarter: 30.1% gross margin less 3.6% for customer service and merchant fees, and 11.4% for advertising. That's the best result we've had since 2023 and was critical to the success we had on driving EBITDA and free cash flow dollars in the quarter. We think this is a helpful construct for investors to bear in mind as they model the business, as it takes a more comprehensive view of our cost structure than any one of our variable line items alone, and combined with SOTG&A leverage drive, total EBITDA flow through selling, operations, technology, general and administrative expenses were $370 million in the second quarter. This was down by roughly $30 million compared to the second quarter of last year. While we did see modest sequential growth, some of this was due to mix shifts between OpEx and capitalized labor. In fact, when you pair the SOTG&A with our site and software development costs in the quarter, our capitalized labor line, we have now reached the lowest levels of combined spend since Q2 2019, a testament to the years of cost efficiency we have driven across the organization. In total, we generated $205 million of adjusted EBITDA dollars the second quarter for a 6.3% margin on net revenue, including a 7.8% adjusted EBITDA margin in our U.S. segment. As Niraj mentioned earlier, we are now realizing the powerful profitability flow through of our model, which we have been building toward for years, even in a very challenging environment. We ended the quarter with $1.4 billion of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, and $1.8 billion of total liquidity. Cash from operations was $273 million, and capital expenditures came in at $43 million. This reflects the March technology restructuring following our replatforming efforts, which drove lower capitalized labor combined with tight discipline around fulfillment CapEx and some timing variance on physical retail, some of which will rebalance in the quarters ahead. Free cash flow in the second quarter was $230 million, the strongest free cash flow generation since the third quarter of 2020, with approximately 20% quarter-over-quarter revenue growth driving a healthy working capital benefit. We deployed approximately $200 million of cash in the quarter to retire more of our 2025 notes and nearly all of our remaining 2026 notes at attractive discounts to par. Looking ahead, after just a small stub of the remaining 2025 due in October, we will sit with a clean balance sheet all the way out to September of 2027. This has been a remarkable evolution in our capital structure over the last year, driven by intense operating discipline and rapid profitability growth. Let's now turn to guidance for the third quarter of 2025. Beginning with the top line, quarter to date, we are trending up in the mid-single digits year-over-year, and we would expect to end the quarter up in the low to mid-single digits. This outlook for the full quarter continues to include approximately 100 basis points of drag from the exit of our German business earlier in the year. Turning to gross margins, we will guide you to the lower end of the 30%- 31% range. Once again, just like our operating philosophy across all parts of our business, whether it's investments in the customer experience and sharp pricing or thinking about the growth of multi-channel over time, we will always be thoughtful and data-driven about whether to pocket gross margin gains or tactically reinvest them. Customer service and merchant fees should be just below 4%, in line with recent quarters. We expect advertising to be in the range of 11%- 12% of net revenue, reflecting a continuation of the dynamics we saw last quarter. This should be the correct ballpark going forward. Stepping back, we do not view any of these line items in isolation. In any given period, a dollar of investment that impacts the gross margin line may have higher ROI than a dollar on the advertising line and vice versa. As you've seen us demonstrate, we remain nimble in our investment mix across the P&L, solving for the highest volume of revenue and EBITDA dollars across a multi-year SOTG&A is expected to be in the range of $360 million- $370 million once again in the third quarter. This is the right quarterly run rate for the business today in light of all of our operating efficiency work. Following the guidance down, we anticipate adjusted EBITDA margin to be in the 5%- 6% range for Q3. Now let me touch on a few housekeeping items. We expect equity-based compensation and related taxes of roughly $75 million- $95 million. Depreciation and amortization should be approximately $73 million- $79 million. Net interest expense of approximately $30 million, weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 130 million, and CapEx in a $55 million- $65 million range. Wrapping up, this quarter's results are just an early illustration of the strength of our model. Our healthy top line growth and robust profitability are a reflection of the value we bring to both our customers and our suppliers, as well as the tremendous evolution we've undertaken in our cost structure, all while continuing to invest for the years ahead. As you've heard us say many times in the past, this is a Wayfair now built to both drive exciting share capture and profitability expansion at the same time. We have never been more focused on the opportunity in front of us and confident in our strategy, discipline, and execution. Thank you. With that, Niraj, Steve, and I will take your questions. Thank you. We will now begin the question and answer session. If you would like to ask a question, please press star one on your telephone keypad to raise your hand and join the queue. If you would like to withdraw your question, again, press s tar one. We also ask that you limit yourself to one question and one follow up. Your first question comes from the line of Christopher Horvers with JP Morgan. Please go ahead. Thanks. Good morning everybody. Some related top line questions. Can you talk about how you think the market grew and how your share gains have shaped up over the past year or so and through the second quarter here? Do you think any of the strength in the business is related to consumer pull forward around fear about tariffs? Obviously, the quarter to date is very strong still, but anything you pick up on the consumer side, whether it's pull forward or some differential between the low and high end consumer would be really helpful. Thank you. Thanks, Chris. Great. Let me share a few thoughts related to all that. What I would say on the market, if I just start with the macro and then maybe I'll talk specifically about Wayfair. If you just look broadly at the market, what I would say is that the market this year is definitely better than the last three years where it was down substantially each year. I think the market is still flat to down low single digits. I would describe the market not as having strength but as feeling like it's bottomed out, like bumping along the bottom. In terms of pull forward, we have not seen any signs of pull forward. If I showed you a demand chart and asked you, hey, where this year were tariffs announced, when were they escalated, when were they rolled back, when were they settled, you would not be able to find any points in that demand chart that would make you feel confident, oh, something happened here, something happened there. That's not really there. There's no question the higher end market is stronger than mass. That's definitely the case. I think you kind of see that in a lot of different data, but that's not really surprising if you just think about the category being discretionary. What I would say is the category is kind of on a bottom, bumping along a bottom. After a few years of declines, it's not showing great strength, but maybe you would call it stable because flat to down low singles is not moving around a ton. What's happening in Wayfair I think is very different, which is that I think our strength is structural. I think what we've been doing over the course of time is building momentum. Over this year we've been seeing momentum built from Q1 to Q2 and we've seen momentum continue to build Q2 to Q3. We're actually, I think, pulling away. I think the reason for that is specific to some Wayfair specific drivers. The way I think about that is that we sort of had one main pillar and we've talked a lot about it, which is how we've taken share every quarter since the fourth quarter of 2022, which is that we've focused a lot on improving the core recipe, which is price, selection, availability, speed of delivery. By working with our suppliers, being very focused on those things, we may continue to improve the customer experience with those things. The customer benefits from those things and that has been a driver of our share gain. I would say what's notable though is historically we've had three pillars in how we grow and we've had that one back intact kind of post Covid since 04-04-2022 and it's worked for us to take share. We now have the other two pillars back intact and that's the notable change. The second pillar is basically just to remind everyone on the call, we have a 2,500 person technology organization and those are software engineers, data scientists, product managers, designers and we build a tremendous amount of our own technology. With that we're able to improve the customer experience and improve the supplier experience in a way that grows the business. For a number of the last few years we basically focused that team on replatforming a lot of our core systems. That took the vast majority of our development cycles. Both at the time and in hindsight was the right decision. Even though we weren't able to progress the business with technology, the truth is building the modern platforms to facilitate faster developer velocity and to basically deprecate the old platforms, it allows us to really be much stronger with the technology we can put forward. Now that we're very far into that replatforming effort, a lot of the cycles of that team are now back building feature and function to improve the customer experience, improve the supplier experience. You see that affect things, whether it's conversion rates, whether that's enabling suppliers to do more on the platform, whether that's launching new generative AI powered features, whether that's efficiency gains in our operation. That's been a great boon. That second pillar is back intact and then the third pillar is somewhat related to that second pillar. As you know, from 2022 to 2024 we also embarked on getting our organizational structure back working great post Covid. That's the balancing of senior with junior folks, the right sizing of teams, and that took a lot of work and was very distracting. As we got through that, we have a great team today, great team in place, and now they're back driving the business forward at a faster speed than we've had before. One of the ways that they provide benefit to the business is launching new programs. We talked about a few of these on the call: Wayfair Rewards, Wayfair Verified, brick and mortar stores. There's a long list. There's improvements we're making in logistics. There's a whole series of things. Those new programs are somewhat reliant on the team having the cycles for it and somewhat reliant on the technology support for those. Now we have these three pillars back in place. The recipe keeps getting better. The technology cycles are available to drive the business forward, and we've been launching and growing new programs. I think that's where you're seeing the momentum built. My follow up question is for Kate. How do you think about the long term profitability ladder higher? If you went back to the 2023 analyst day, you definitely saw the benefit of leverage on advertising, leverage on SOT G&A. A key piece to the low double digit plus EBITDA margin target was also gross margin. Can you talk about is there something changing in the business that makes that sort of paradigm and framework different as we look forward versus what you talked about in 2023? Thank you. Yeah, thanks Chris. As you alluded to, in the Analyst Day in 2023 we spoke to getting to towards north of 10% adjusted EBITDA margins and I think you're seeing us actually make really nice progress on that path and we feel very good about our ability to achieve that and continue to see momentum there. To your point, there are a few different elements to that I referenced on the call. Part of how we look at it internally is to think through the components that really drive to what we would call our contribution margin. The gross margin, less the customer service and merchant fees and less the ad cost and ensuring that we're optimizing on that contribution margin to then cover off on the SOTG&A and provide that really nice incremental flow through that you saw this quarter. We want to continue to see and we do trade off across the elements within there to ensure that we're doing the right thing to maximize over time adjusted EBITDA dollars which ultimately then drives one of our core north stars which is driving positive owner's earnings. The adjusted EBITDA dollars less the CapEx, less the SBC, you saw that very nicely positive this quarter. The combination of the gross margin, the customer service, the ACNR, those things driving to that contribution margin, trying to drive that up over time then helps you get to that adjusted EBITDA dollars and helps you get to that adjusted EBITDA margin that we talked about. I want to say that there's anything fundamentally different in the way that we're looking at the business. We do want to provide a framework to help folks think through how we make trade offs across those lines to ensure that we are driving to maximizing adjusted EBITDA dollars, which then in turn obviously drives that margin. The only thing I would just chime in to add to what Kate said, because Kate, I think recapped it really well, is that positive owner’s earnings and maximizing that is really a goal we have. If you think about that, how would you do that? If you kind of run out scenarios, you would see that if I believe I can grow revenue at a pretty meaningful rate and do it while protecting the flow through at a significant level, you would see that compounds very quickly. You end up optimizing for that because that is what's going to give you that asymmetric upside. We are very focused on that. You're starting to see that manifest when you see the highest revenue growth, highest profit since 2021. We're telling you momentum is building. Where could that go if that builds over time? That is what we believe the opportunity is. That is not focusing on revenue growth and that is not focusing on profitability. It's a combination of the two. You need to have the flow through and if you couple that with meaningful revenue growth, then you really are going to maximize the dollars. Got it. Thanks very much. Thanks, Chris. Your next question comes from the line of Peter Keith with Piper Sandler. Please go ahead. Hey, thanks. Good morning and great results, guys. Following up on the flow through question. The flow through margin does look particularly good right now, and the Q3 guide looks like it's holding steady at a strong level, maybe even strengthening. I'm wondering, are we at like a new normal? We can see the power of the model with revenue growth, or is there somewhat of an elevated contribution margin today as we're kind of coming off the bottom and now starting to see some of that incremental growth? Yeah, I can start and then Niraj, feel free to jump in. I think actually for many quarters we've spoken about the impact that the cost discipline we've held to over the last few years, the impact of that on overall profitability as we started to see momentum in the top line and that this was really poised for significant flow through as you saw that momentum. We're really pleased with that flow through, that contribution margin this quarter. Obviously, the incremental margins being very solid this quarter because of that SOCA holding in there and remaining in that 360 to 370, as we said. I think what you're hearing from us is this is what we expected to see. We've been driving the business to this point for many years now. You see the momentum in the top line really manifesting and that nice adjusted EBITDA flow through and that nice adjusted EBITDA margin. It's not, there isn't anything abnormal in here. There isn't anything unusual. It's just really that build over the last few years getting us to this point. Peter, I think, just to make sure, I think I understood the question correctly. If you look at that contribution margin, you know, of 15%, I think you were asking, you know, is there some reason that that's too high? I would say, if you do think back to the investor day and you think about what we're talking about now, we think that's a good level. That's the point. It's like if you have that level of contribution margin and you couple it with meaningful revenue growth, that's how you create the outcome we're talking about. Okay, very good. I did want to follow up on the marketing. It is interesting that you made the investment in Q4 around influencers. You saw the deleverage then and now you're seeing accelerated growth. Could you unpack that a little bit? Are you starting to see an uptick in some of that middle and upper income customers coming into the funnel, which could be a direct result of that marketing? How's it been going and could you even accelerate it further? Yeah, what I would say, if you kind of look inside the ad cost bucket, I think what you would see is there's two significant trends that are both happening at the same time. One is that the emerging channels, which would be things like influencers or things like TikTok, like segments where we've been underpenetrated, arguably behind, and we focused on figuring out the right recipe to crack them economically. We made really good headway there and we're growing them quite nicely and they are getting us in front of a new incremental set of customers. We're really excited about that. I will say that the amount of the total budget that's spent in those areas is still pretty modest, but it's actually performing really well, growing nicely. I would say the bigger thing that's happened on the ad cost line is through a lot of testing and some enhancements to some of our measurement models, we've also been able to identify pockets of our spend which we do not believe were contributing at the economic payback we wanted. Even though they were creating some revenue for us, it was not at a cost level that would make sense to us. What we've done is we've trimmed out those pockets of spend because we're now able to identify them better. As we trim them out, it creates a revenue headwind. For like, you know, ad costs would be higher, revenue would be higher, but it makes sense to trim out. They're not worth that level of spend. What you've seen is that overall, even though we're growing these emerging channels on net, we're getting a lot of advertising cost leverage because of how those two add together. We're pretty excited about the combination of those two things that are happening. You could hear from Kate Gulliver's guide kind of our expectation that we, there's nothing kind of one time about that. Very good. Thanks so much. Your next question comes from the line of David Bellinger with Mizuho. Please go ahead. Hey, good morning. Thanks for the question. Could you just help us understand the progression of the revenue growth through the quarter, especially in the U.S., and you mentioned not a lot of price moving across the platform yet. How should we think about that layering in over the back half? Yeah. I think you're talking about the Q2 revenue growth perhaps, and maybe a little bit of the Q3 momentum. Obviously we don't guide revenue by months, but I think what you saw here was a very solid Q2 revenue growth in Q2 revenue comp. We did make the point on the call that we're not seeing any changes in price. We do think that that's frankly due to the benefit of the marketplace model. You're seeing that marketplace competitive dynamic enable that prices that are on page one, those best sellers, the ones that are at the top of the stored order, where folks are actually driving the volume, are maintaining their price efficiency and that's resulting in ongoing customer engagement that result in order volume ink wide being slightly positive this quarter. Indeed, as we look into the second quarter you actually see order volume building more momentum into the third quarter, order volume building more momentum. As we think about how this trends in the third quarter we've actually said we're actually trending mid single digits quarter to date, coming off of a very nice Black Friday in July promotion and we feel really good about the momentum that we're seeing in the business. Great, thank you Kate. Maybe a longer term question as we start to explore some of this agentic shopping AI agents, we're starting to see more of this across consumer and understanding Wayfair's using Decorify and Muse. Is there anything else we should be aware of in terms of customer facing AI? We've seen some of this new beta testing on the app, a Discover tab with some AI generated images and Niraj, you were just talking about the pivot from the developers to showcasing more features. Anything new there? Anything else we should be aware of going forward? Thank you. Yeah, thanks David. What I would say is there's a bunch of places that are consumer facing where the experience is getting improved through generative AI. Some of that you'll see in things like search results, in sort order, in product descriptions, product level imagery, attribute coverage and accuracy. There are a lot of things like that that are already happening and then there's a lot more to come. One of the things you know, I'm sure you kind of think about in our category, it's different than a category where you know exactly what you want. Most retail categories are branded and a large portion of those are consumable categories where you're buying the same thing or you're buying something and you kind of very specifically know what you want. Here, where there's a lot more product discovery, there's a lot of content around trends, you might create different types of events, you're trying to personalize based on someone's stance on their price point. You're trying to have engaging content so they come back more often, and then how you can use video and the cost and the quality of what you can create on video is dropping really fast with generative AI. There are a lot of things that we're also working on that are yet to come. There are really engaging features like you mentioned, Decorify and Muse, there's what we do in the Discover tab and there's more coming there as well, including a lot of types of experiences that would have a lot more to do with what we're doing with influencers off site and what we could do on site. I would say that's an area that you can just kind of keep watching. We've done a bunch of things, but there's a lot more coming as well. I think in our category, it can make for a very rich experience. Great. Thank you both. Your next question comes from the line of Oliver Wintermantel with Evercore ISI. Please go ahead. Thank you, and good morning. Could you guys comment on the revenues from repeat customers versus orders from new customers? It looks like orders from new customers grew a little bit faster this quarter. Want to see what the trends were there for the quarter? Yeah. You know, Oli, as you point out, we did see new order growth this quarter, which is exciting. We always want to see that kind of momentum, but we're not seeing anything fundamentally different in the repeat business as well. As you think about how do we build the top line and the share gains over time, some of those share gains are going to come from lifetime value of repeat customers and some of those share gains are going to come from new customer acquisition and new customers engaging on the platform. We want to be seeing both of those moving in the right direction. We feel really good about directionally where each of those are trending. Got it, thank you. A follow up on mix. I think, Niraj, you said that within AOV, mix was the biggest driver. If you can maybe comment on the three parts like units per order, items per order, or the mix, what the magnitudes were. Thank you. Yeah, thanks, Oli. If you think about mix, where we've got some higher end brands, lower end brands, we have different geographies, we have different categories. Mix has a lot of impact in that number. I think we talked about this earlier in the call about how some of the other factors are, you know, items are up marginally, but mix is a very big piece of the total. The same way we were talking about, you know, the price level of items has not really changed. Most of what you're seeing in AOV is really mix. I guess that would be. Yeah. I think it, you know, it speaks a little bit to, you know, there could be mix within our categories, but there can also be mix across our brands. That helps. You're speaking to the momentum. We've talked in the past about Perigold, some of the specialty retail brands, and our B2B business. All of these things come in at substantially higher AOVs, and that mix helps drive the overall AOV up even when you're not seeing like-for-like pricing changes. I think it's important. There was a lot of discussion around are we going to see like-for-like pricing changes. I think it's important to call out that's not what we're seeing. We are seeing some typical seasonality in AOV, and we are seeing, you know, this mixed benefit in AOV. Thanks very much, and good luck. Thank you. Your next question comes from the line of Jonathan Matuszewski with Jefferies. Please go ahead. Nice quarter and thanks for taking my questions. The first one is on market share. Is there any evolution you're seeing in the source of your gains? Obviously you've had a string of multiple quarters of consecutive share gains, but fragmented industry, are you seeing any different changes in terms of where you are picking up share? That's my first question. Thanks. Sure, sure, Jon, thanks for your question. I would say at a high level, no. What we're still seeing is that it's obviously a very large category. It's very fragmented. There's been some notable companies who had decent size who went out of business. There's also a very long tail. Smaller companies have gone out of business. There's a lot of folks who are just losing share over time. There's a relatively small number of folks who are winning and taking share. In the past, we've mentioned that Amazon is taking share, we mentioned HomeGoods is taking share, and we've commented that we believe that ourselves. Those two, if you look back over the last few years, are the three notable largest share winners. That would look consistent in the data as we look at it over time. The same story is playing out and it's just kind of continuing. Thanks. And then just a quick follow up on David's question. Maybe more from an external lens, but we've been seeing a growing percentage of your site traffic being referred by, you know, folks like ChatGPT or Perplexity, you know, small overall but growing exponentially. Maybe if you could discuss how Wayfair is positioning itself externally to benefit from consumers increasingly using these LLMs as shopping assistance. Thanks. Yeah, sure, sure, Jon. I think you're describing it well in the sense that whether it's OpenAI or Google Gemini or Perplexity, the amount of traffic coming from them is rising, but it's very, very small. That said, given the magnitude of the change, it's not something you're going to ignore. Our view is we're kind of doing multiple things. One is how do you optimize the interaction with them so that those platforms can understand Wayfair well, so that as they're recommending things, they can recommend Wayfair. A number of those platforms also have desires to get into shopping in the same way Google got into Google Shopping or Pinterest got into shopping and the different goals of how high in the funnel they want to stay. It is going to vary by category because, again, if you're replenishing commodities that you buy on a weekly or bi-weekly basis, that's one level of execution they can do. If it's a much more complex category, there's a different level of assistance they can provide. We are working with each of the major players on ways that we can optimize things together. I think this is an area where our technology strength can help us a lot because a lot of what our team can do is the same way. We've been a close partner with Google and Meta and Pinterest and others over the years as they've evolved their kind of upper funnel products. We've been able to help them and benefit by being very early in. It is analogous, I think, to what's happening here. I think we benefit from being a category where, frankly, a product selection is not a commodity UPC item with a SKU number where it's just who's got the cheapest price that can have it delivered by Friday. That is a thing where the customer actually wants to pick the right thing, where it's complicated to pick or delivery is a complicated activity. These are fragile, heavy, prone to damage items. I think that this is the other thing we're seeing, that each category type will manifest differently. I think we're set up well for our category and to be a partner with these folks as they become a larger source where customers start. Helpful. Best of luck. Thank you. Your next question comes from the line of Simeon Gutman with Morgan Stanley. Please go ahead. Good morning, this is Pedro Gil on for Simeon. Nice quarter. Thanks for taking our questions. My first one is about demand. How do you reconcile the improvement in demand that you're capturing this quarter with the fact that housing turnover is still depressed? Are you seeing an uptick in the replacement cycle, absent the housing cycle? As a follow up, what are you hearing from vendors in terms of profitability? Do they feel like they're earning enough or do prices potentially need to increase in the back half of the year? Yep. On demand, I tried to kind of address this earlier in some of my comments in the sense that I wouldn't say the category is doing great. To your point about housing turnover being depressed, if you look at the demand level in the category, you've had three years where it went down by kind of significant amounts per year and now you have it kind of flat to down. I think I said I thought it was flat to down, low single digits. That's not a strong environment. One of the reasons it is that way is exactly what you mentioned about housing turnover and existing home sales being off by so much. I think that's still the case. The way I reconcile how we're doing with that to your question is that I think our strength is structural and specific to Wayfair. That was what I was trying to describe with the three pillars and effectively how we're able to grow through our own actions. I think it's important to realize the category is still a very big category. You have hundreds of billions of dollars of spend in this category and it is very fragmented, it's arguably far too fragmented. The strong players are providing an experience that's much, much better than what the average participant can provide. What would it naturally then make sense for customers to do? I think that's where we can pull demand away from places that someone may have gone by providing that customer with a better experience. That's across the recipe, that's across what we can do with technology, and that's across what we can do with new programs. We think that's what's happening and we think there's a lot of evidence to support that. You can kind of see that yourself. On your second question around suppliers and profitability, are their margins workable? I think what we've seen from suppliers is that they're very keen to not raise prices on goods, because what they've seen is if they raise prices on goods, they lose demand for those goods quite quickly. It's a competitive world. There are a lot of suppliers. You know, we have over 20,000 suppliers on our platform and they are to some degree in competition with each other. They know that, hey, if I take an item, it's doing well, I raise its price, it could kill that item. I don't want to do that. Suppliers are pretty keen to figure out how to maintain those prices. There are a lot of levers between, you know, is there room on the manufacturer's margin, is there room in their margin, is there room in what they've built in for ocean freight pricing, where ocean freight has stayed at lower level prices and has not become elevated again? There are ways to work to make sure that items that are popular with customers at a certain price point can stay that way. This is what we're hearing broadly from suppliers. Got it. Thank you. Good luck. Thank you. We have time for one more question. That question comes from the line of Brian Nagel with Oppenheimer. Please go ahead. Good morning. Thanks for slipping me in here. Nice quarter. My first question, and it's going to be repetitive, so I apologize. Just looking at the sales trajectory here in Q2, then the guidance in Q3, and there's clearly been a nice inflection, stronger. I guess the way I want to ask the question is did, you know, over these periods, did Wayfair pull some specific lever or was it more a matter of this kind of business coming together to drive the stronger top line? Yeah, thanks, Brian. I would actually say I think the demand has been building and I think it's just now building to a level that it's easier to see. Obviously, as it continues to build, it'll become increasingly easier to see. I think the way I would describe it is that there's no single lever. In fact, I think I highlighted that if you do ad costs, like for like, you would actually see a higher level of revenue growth. In other words, we created a revenue headwind by rationalizing some of the ad costs based on some of the improvements we were able to make in the way we were able to measure and model different tranches of the ad cost. In a way, that's actually been a great benefit for us overall because, again, as I mentioned, revenue growth is one goal. The contribution margin flow through is the other goal. The combination creates this growth in dollars in the owner's earnings, which is really the ultimate goal. There's not one lever. It's what I described with the three pillars playing out, and that's been playing out not necessarily this quarter but over the course of this year. You're just seeing this building. The momentum, as Niraj said earlier a few times, feels to us driven by these structural business initiatives, not by any one-time events, any unique pull forward, anything like that. That momentum is continuing. Okay, that's very helpful. My second question just with regard to gross margin, so again you're kind of guiding towards Q3, that lower end of that normalized range. You've mentioned a lot how much control you have over this and your decision to reinvest upside. When you're looking at the gross margin, particularly as sales are turning stronger, what specific is that? What is that reinvestment? Where are you putting that upside back into the model, so to say. Yes, a great question. As we've spoken about in the past, we always want to be thoughtful about how we're continuing to drive value for our customer. One of the levers that we think about is investing in price. We've talked about in the past using our large, you know, first party data sets to really have a fine tuning on that elasticity curve and where we think we should be optimizing on that curve. Often when we think about price investments, which can take, you know, take rate reductions or co-investment in promotion, we're thinking about where we want to land on that elasticity curve to overall drive gross profit dollars on this multi-quarter basis, ultimately, you know, flow through. That 15% contribution margin that we hit this quarter and we talked about, and ultimately driving adjusted EBITDA dollars and adjusted EBITDA margin. We'll take into account where we think we should be, you know, on that elasticity curve to ensure that, you know, we are optimizing there. We also invest in other parts of the customer experience, like for example speed or improvements in the delivery experience from, you know, deluxing or consolidation of delivery. All of these things are really important to us to help overall, you know, drive value for our customer and, you know, drive that adjusted EBITDA dollars growth and adjusted EBITDA margin. Okay, very helpful. I appreciate it. Thank you. That concludes our question and answer session. I will now turn the conference back over to the Wayfair team for closing comments. I just want to thank everyone for your interest in Wayfair and for joining us today. We look forward to talking with you again next quarter and hope everyone's enjoying the summer. This concludes today's conference call. Thank you for your participation, and you may now disconnect.
