"2020 demonstrates the scalability and value of our marketplace business model," said Rachel Glaser, Etsy, Inc. Chief Financial Officer. "We have a very disciplined approach to our investments with a goal to deliver profitable long-term growth. Our investments in marketing have contributed to encouraging progress in buyer retention and frequency which will serve as a foundation for the future. Etsy is uniquely positioned to leverage our strong balance sheet, dynamic business model, and solid fundamentals to capitalize on our large addressable market."
Third Quarter 2020 Highlights
Select highlights of our third quarter operating performance and business initiatives are outlined below:
-- Of the 138 million all time buyers on the Etsy marketplace,
approximately 50% have now purchased at least once in the last year,
with approximately 69 million active buyers in the third quarter. In
addition, the Etsy marketplace saw an influx of 14.8 million new buyers
and reactivated buyers during the third quarter - the latter being those
who haven't purchased in a year or more. We have implemented various
strategies to engage and target new and existing buyers on and off-site,
with personalized and consistent messaging across many channels, driving
repeat visitation.
-- The majority of Etsy's GMS is driven by existing buyers, and we have
experienced a significant change in buyer cohorts in terms of the
frequency with which they shop and the amount they are spending on Etsy.
In terms of third quarter 2020 GMS per buyer, when using data for our
2018 buyer cohort as a proxy for how our historical cohorts have
performed, existing buyers have increased their GMS per buyer by more
than 50% in the third quarter of 2020 when compared to the third quarter
of 2019, even when excluding face mask purchases.
-- We have also seen an increase in the value of our recent new buyer
cohorts when measured by GMS per buyer. For example, a buyer in the
second quarter of 2020, whose first purchase was not a face mask, spent
50% more in their subsequent purchases in the first 90 days on Etsy than
a new buyer in the second quarter of 2019. New buyers in the second
quarter of 2020 whose first purchase on Etsy was a face mask are
similarly valuable in GMS per buyer in terms of subsequent 90-day
purchases, although they are primarily returning to Etsy to buy more
face masks.
-- We made additional progress in search and discovery by relieving
friction in the search journey to make the site more browseable,
increasing site performance, and improving the relevance and engagement
of recommendations. We removed guided search icons, which had a neutral
impact as we've made improvements to organic search, and launched Single
Page App pagination to create faster, more responsive search pages. In
addition, we began to incorporate buyer characteristics into our ranking
algorithm for in-cart recommendations, which drove incremental GMS in
the third quarter.
-- We leveraged reviews to help buyers make more informed purchase
decisions on items they are searching for. By incorporating machine
learning we are now able to prioritize the most helpful reviews which
are those that have substantial text, images, and are similar to the
target listing.
-- We deepened the human connections in our marketplace by launching
listing videos, which help sellers showcase their products to buyers in
ways they previously could not with photos, showing their expertise in
making and bringing their products to life. As of September 30, 2020,
approximately 1.5 million sellers videos were uploaded.
-- Through our product development efforts we built trust in our
marketplace by focusing on the core buying experience, improving
shipping transparency and post-purchase experiences. We are helping
buyers better understand when they should expect an item to arrive by
expanding listing coverage of expected delivery dates. We launched a
tool to help sellers adjust their processing times, a key input for
expected delivery dates, based on their historical performance for time
to ship.
-- We added enhancements to our Etsy Ads (formerly Promoted Listings)
service, improving the relevance of ads in search and the speed of
incorporating changes in a seller's budget. We also made our Etsy Ads
infrastructure more efficient, providing better search results while
simultaneously using fewer cloud resources. To add to the seller
experience, we launched performance graphs in the ads dashboard, helping
to make advertising on Etsy as easy as possible for our sellers. These
efforts contributed to the 91.4% year-over-year growth of on-site
advertising revenue in the third quarter.
-- We significantly increased our investments in marketing, and our
optimization of spend across our marketing channels, with a particular
focus on increasing the percentage of spend to mid and upper funnel
channels. Upper funnel marketing spend, including television and digital
video, was 18.1% of our overall marketing spend, or approximately $23
million, in the third quarter. During the quarter, the teams also worked
to finalize our holiday plans, which include a sales hub, earlier
visibility of holiday onsite, and gift guides.
-- We're also investing to drive frequency and buyer engagement. During the
quarter, we launched a new buyer offer to target buyers through a series
of emails after their initial purchase. We leveraged our CRM
capabilities and machine learning to incentivize buyers to return to the
site for a subsequent purchase.
-- Our team remains highly productive while working remotely. During this
time we allocated resources to critical infrastructure improvements to
more accurately categorize our inventory and are investing in
longer-term initiatives such as search and frequency and are seeing
encouraging data from our recent product launches.
-- Reverb launched a new feature that enables sellers to offer more
competitive shipping rates to buyers that purchase multiple qualifying
items. Reverb also made investments in customer support that are
shortening response times for buyers and sellers.
Additional GMS highlights for the third quarter of 2020 include:
-- GMS excluding mask sales for the Etsy marketplace was $2.2 billion, up
93% year-over-year, and 11% of the Etsy marketplace's overall GMS was
from mask sales.
-- Etsy marketplace's GMS per active buyer on a trailing 12-month basis
grew 8% year-over-year and 4% excluding masks.
-- In the third quarter, the Etsy marketplace delivered 9.6 million new
buyers and 5.2 million reactivated buyers who have not purchased in a
year or more. Habitual buyers, buyers with 6 or more purchase days and
over $200 in spend in the trailing 12-months, grew 104%, outpacing
overall active buyer growth, and repeat buyers, buyers with 2 or more
purchase days in the trailing 12-months, grew 70% in the third quarter.
-- GMS from paid channels was 19% of overall GMS in the third quarter of
2020, expanding 500 basis points compared to the third quarter of 2019.
-- Consolidated active buyers grew 55.4% year-over-year in the third
quarter, and active sellers grew 42.0% year-over-year.
Third Quarter 2020 Consolidated Financial Results
-- Total revenue was $451.5 million for the third quarter of 2020, up
128.1% year-over-year, driven by strong growth in both Marketplace and
Services revenue.
-- Consolidated take rate was 17.1% for the third quarter of 2020, up 60
basis points year-over-year, driven by Etsy Ads, Offsite Ads, and the
expansion of our Etsy Payments Platform.
-- Gross profit for the third quarter of 2020 was $331.3 million, up 156.8%
year-over-year, and gross margin was 73.4%, up 820 basis points compared
with 65.2% in the third quarter of 2019. The expansion in gross margin
was primarily driven by our shift to Offsite Ads, which drives revenue
growth without an equal offset in cost of revenue, and to a lesser
extent revenue growth from Etsy Ads.
-- Income from operations was $118.2 million in the third quarter of 2020,
up 730% year-over-year, compared to a decline of 24% in the third
quarter of 2019. The increase in income from operations was driven by an
increase in gross profit coupled with leverage in operating expenses.
Operating expenses were up 85.7% year-over-year driven primarily by our
investments in marketing initiatives, including our shift to Offsite Ads
where Etsy leverages its expertise and marketing budget to drive growth
for sellers.
-- Net income for the third quarter of 2020 was $91.8 million, with diluted
earnings per share of $0.70.
-- Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2020 was $151.4
million and grew 259.9% year-over-year. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA margin
(i.e., non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue) was 33.5% in the
third quarter of 2020, up 1,220 basis points year-over-year. Adjusted
EBITDA performance was driven primarily by year-over-year revenue
growth.
-- Cash, cash equivalents, short- and long-term investments were $1.6
billion as of September 30, 2020 in addition to a $200 million revolving
credit facility that is currently undrawn. During the quarter, we issued
$650.0 million of 7-year convertible senior notes. A portion of the
proceeds were used to repurchase $301.1 million of our 0% Convertible
Senior Notes due 2023 ("2018 Notes") and to enter into $74.7 million of
capped call instruments.

"We're focused on driving seller growth and bringing joy to buyers this holiday season. So far, October GMS growth trends for both Etsy and Reverb have been similar to what we experienced in September. Looking further out, 2021 is extremely hard to predict and we will be lapping enormous 2020 growth.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA
In this press release, we provide Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure that represents our net income adjusted to exclude: interest and other non-operating expense, net; (benefit) provision for income taxes; depreciation and amortization; stock-based compensation expense; foreign exchange loss; acquisition-related expenses; non-ordinary course disputes; and loss on extinguishment of debt. Below is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
We have included Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management and Board of Directors to evaluate our operating performance and trends, allocate internal resources, prepare and approve our annual budget, develop short- and long-term operating plans, determine incentive compensation, and assess the health of our business. As our Adjusted EBITDA increases, we are able to invest more in our platform.
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business as it removes the impact of certain non-cash items and certain variable charges.
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
-- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect other non-operating expenses, net of
other non-operating income, including net interest expense;
-- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect tax payments that may represent a
reduction in cash available to us;
-- although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets
being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future,
and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure
requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure
requirements;
-- Adjusted EBITDA does not consider the impact of stock-based compensation
expense;
-- Adjusted EBITDA does not consider the impact of foreign exchange loss;
-- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect acquisition-related expenses;
-- Adjusted EBITDA does not consider the impact of non-ordinary course
