Porch Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: PRCH) saw its stock price surge 18.93% in pre-market trading on Wednesday, following the release of its exceptional first-quarter 2025 financial results. The home services platform provider significantly outperformed analyst expectations, demonstrating strong profitability and beating revenue estimates by a wide margin.
The company reported quarterly earnings of $0.08 per share, dramatically surpassing the analyst consensus estimate of a $0.12 loss. This represents a remarkable turnaround from the $0.21 loss per share reported in the same period last year. Revenue for the quarter came in at $104.75 million, beating the analyst estimate of $79.44 million by 31.86%. Although this figure represents a 9.27% year-over-year decrease, the substantial beat against expectations has fueled the stock's rally.
Porch Group's adjusted EBITDA for Q1 was $17 million, nearly tripling the IBES estimate of $5.98 million. This strong performance, coupled with a healthy cash and investments position of $113.8 million, suggests improved operational efficiency and financial stability. Furthermore, the company provided a positive outlook for the fiscal year, projecting revenue between $400 million and $420 million. This optimistic forecast has likely boosted investor confidence and contributed to the significant pre-market gains, setting the stage for a potentially strong trading session ahead.
