Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>Higher-quality buyers</h3>\n<p>As its fiscal second quarter ended June 30, eBay had 159 million total active buyers. Even though this is down 2% from last year, it is still 3% higher than the same quarter in 2019. So far, it looks like some buyers who came to eBay during the pandemic are going to stick around as economies reopen.</p>\n<p>Interestingly, the mix of buyers is also of higher strategic value to eBay. The company is transitioning from legacy tactics used to attract buyers that were resulting in low-value buyers. For instance, I have stopped receiving coupons for 20% off my entire purchase from eBay; these used to arrive to my inbox roughly once every quarter. Instead, management has focused on attracting high-value buyers. Here is CFO Steve Priest discussing how the company defines a high-value buyer:</p>\n<blockquote>\n These include buyers who sell, or buyers who purchase at least six days a year and spend over $800. This high-value segment represents approximately 20% of our buyer base, and they purchase around 75% of our GMV [gross merchandise volume]. High-value buyers grew in Q2 as did the spend per buyer. Low-value buyers on eBay make approximately half of our buyer base, but only purchase about 5% of our GMV.\n</blockquote>\n<p>So not only does eBay have 3% more buyers than in 2019, but its buyer base also likely consists of folks who make more purchases or spend more each time they purchase -- or both.</p>\n<h3>eBay transitions its payment system</h3>\n<p>Management is also migrating eBay's buyer and seller base to its payment system. In the fiscal second quarter, 71% of payments were managed through eBay's system, and it's well on its way to over 90% in the third quarter. The new system helps sellers by reducing the number of unpaid items, a scenario where a customer clicks to buy the item but never makes the payment.</p>\n<p>In addition, the new system will add to eBay's profitability. The company expects total dollar volume of payments processed to reach $1.8 billion this fiscal year.</p>\n<h3>Improved profit margin</h3>\n<p>Importantly, eBay has long been a company that operates with healthy profit margins. Indeed, over the past decade, it has averaged an income before-tax percentage of 28.3%. And management expects profits to expand this fiscal year, telling investors that it expects to improve its operating profit margin by 150 basis points from 2019.</p>\n<p>Overall, the changes management has implemented have put eBay in a better position than before the pandemic. Moreover, the stock is trading at a favorable forward price-to-earnings ratio of 17.5. For those reasons, investors can feel good about adding eBay stock to their watch lists.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Could eBay's Business Be Better than Before the Pandemic?</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nCould eBay's Business Be Better than Before the Pandemic?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-10-08 22:04 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/10/08/ebay-increasing-profits-higher-than-pre-pandemic/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>eBay (NASDAQ:EBAY) is one company that benefited from the shift to online shopping at the pandemic's onset.
