Revenue grows as margins narrow
The second-quarter picture combines stronger demand with thinner profitability. Yahoo Finance reported that retail revenue grew 8.00 percent in constant currency, while adjusted EBITDA came to USD 163.00 million on revenue of about USD 8.90 billion in the second quarter of 2026.
The same report put Coupang's consolidated gross margin at 28.20 percent, down 1.88 percentage points from a year earlier. The retail segment's adjusted EBITDA margin was 5.10 percent, while the company-wide margin stood at 1.80 percent.
Price sits above the yearly low
The October 16 closing price was USD 0.92, or 6.89 percent, above the 52-week low of USD 13.35 and 55.89 percent below the 52-week high of USD 32.35. The stock was down 39.50 percent year to date, while trading volume of 12.16 million shares remained below the 17.21 million average.
For investors, the key contrast is clear: customer activity is recovering faster than reported profitability. The next earnings release will test whether the margin pressure has eased without sacrificing the revenue trend.
Valuation and reporting date
