“Throughout the year, consumers came to Poshmark to discover, shop the latest trends, and connect with our community. This culminated in our strongest-ever holiday performance and record trailing 12 months Active Buyers of 7.6 million.”

The company said adjusted loss before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization narrowed to $4.7 million from $4.8 million in the prior-year quarter, while net loss per share narrowed to $0.19, from $0.25.
 
For the full-year 2021, ​GMV reached $1.8 billion, an increase of 27% year-over-year, while net revenue hit $326 million, a 25% increase on 2020. Adjusted EBITDA was $7.3 million which decreased from $36 million in 2020.

"Our cohorts continue to remain stable and the strong engagement from our users gives us the confidence to invest for the long term as we are still in the early stages of our growth cycle,” said Chandra.

“Our asset-light model, which is both adaptable and responsive to changing consumer demands and insulated from supply chain disruption, uniquely positions us to thrive in the current environment.”
