What Happened?
Shares of home services online marketplace ANGI (NASDAQ: ANGI) jumped 29.5% in the afternoon session after the company reported impressive first quarter 2025 results which beat analysts' revenue, EPS, and EBITDA expectations. The real story for the quarter was the profit rebound, a turnaround from the prior year driven by cuts in acquisition and marketing costs. On the other hand, its number of requests declined, and it pulled its full-year guidance. Still, we think this was a solid quarter with some key areas of upside.
The shares closed the day at $15.15, up 34.7% from previous close.
