SEC filingRevenue grew 9.7% driven by off-platform ecommerce, but gross margin contracted 230 bps due to higher costs.
For the three months ended September 30, 2025, total revenues increased 9.7% year-over-year to $332.6 million, driven primarily by strong growth in off-platform ecommerce (up 29.7% to $125.8 million) and modest gains in GigaCloud 1P (up 2.6% to $98.3 million). Service revenues from GigaCloud 3P declined 1.7% to $108.4 million, as lower ocean transportation and drayage fees offset growth in last-mile delivery and warehousing. Gross profit remained nearly flat at $77.0 million, but gross margin contracted 230 basis points to 23.2%, reflecting a 13% increase in cost of revenues—particularly from higher product costs (up 12.5%) and service costs (up 14.0%). Selling and marketing expenses rose 37.1% due to higher platform fees and staff costs, while general and administrative expenses fell 44.4% as previous period's fulfillment center startup costs normalized. Net income decreased 8.6% to $37.2 million, with diluted EPS of $0.99 versus $0.98.
GigaCloud 3P service revenues saw declines in ocean transportation (-63.4%) and drayage (-27.7%), partially offset by growth in last-mile delivery (+29.0%), warehousing (+17.5%), and packaging (+16.0%). GigaCloud 1P product revenues increased 2.6%, benefiting from higher marketplace GMV and buyer expansion. Off-platform ecommerce revenues surged 29.7%, reflecting increased sales channels and volume, particularly on third-party platforms like Amazon and Wayfair. Overall, the company operates as a single segment; the revenue mix shifted towards product revenues (67.4% of total vs 63.6% prior year).
