eBay Inc. (ISIN US2786421030) was last at USD 106.40 on Nasdaq on October 2, 2026, up 0.48 percent from the prior close. The central operating signal is Q2 2026 revenue of USD 3.13 billion, while management reported non-GAAP earnings per share of USD 1.60, up 17 percent year over year, according to Yahoo Finance on the August 5, 2026 earnings call.
Q2 growth beat expectations
The second-quarter figures show a meaningful gap between reported performance and consensus. eBay's non-GAAP EPS of USD 1.60 exceeded the USD 1.50 estimate, while revenue of USD 3.13 billion topped the USD 3.01 billion forecast, according to MarketBeat.
Gross merchandise volume also grew 14 percent year over year to USD 22.4 billion in Q2 2026, and non-GAAP operating income increased 16 percent to USD 893 million, according to Yahoo Finance. The combination gives the stock a stronger earnings base, but the next test is whether growth holds against tougher comparisons.
