<p class="has-drop-cap">Shopify Inc. (NYSE, TSX: SHOP) demonstrated its robust financial health and operational efficiency in the <a href="https://s27.q4cdn.com/572064924/files/doc_financials/2024/q1/Exhibit-99-1-Press-Release-Q1-2024_Final.pdf" target="_blank" aria-label="first quarter of 2024 (opens in a new tab)" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="deco-link">first quarter of 2024</a>, setting a solid foundation for the year ahead. The company reported a 23% increase in revenue, amounting to $1.9 billion, and an even more impressive 29% growth when adjusting for the sale of its logistics businesses.</p>
<p>This remarkable growth is complemented by a 33% increase in gross profit dollars, reaching $957 million, and a doubled year-over-year free cash flow margin of 12%.</p>
<p>Harley Finkelstein, President of Shopify, emphasized the company’s commitment to long-term success, highlighting the quarter’s achievements as evidence of Shopify’s strongest version to date. <br><br>The company’s dedication to maintaining a consistent team size while capitalizing on opportunities that accelerate merchant success has been pivotal to its impressive start to the year. Shopify’s Chief Financial Officer, Jeff Hoffmeister, also noted the company’s operational discipline and strong execution as key drivers behind the sustained growth and improved free cash flow margin.</p>
<h3 id="shopify-beats-q1-eps-and-revenue-forecasts">Shopify Beats Q1 EPS and Revenue Forecasts</h3>
<p>When comparing Shopify’s Q1 2024 performance against expectations, it’s clear the company has exceeded analyst forecasts. The expectations for the quarter were an <a href="https://tokenist.com/investing/how-to-value-a-stock/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="deco-link">EPS</a> of $0.16 and revenue of $1.84 billion. Shopify’s actual performance, with a revenue of $1.9 billion, surpasses these projections, showcasing the company’s ability to outperform market expectations. <br><br>This overachievement is further underscored by the significant growth in Gross Merchandise Volume (GMV) and Gross Payments Volume (GPV), which increased by 23% and 32%, respectively.</p>

<h3 id="shopify-optimistic-for-q2-2024">Shopify Optimistic for Q2 2024</h3>
<p>Looking ahead, Shopify has provided an optimistic outlook for the second quarter of 2024, expecting revenue to grow at a high-teens percentage rate year-over-year. <br><br>This projection translates into a low-to-mid-twenties growth rate when adjusting for the impact from the sale of its logistics businesses. Despite anticipating a slight decrease in gross margin by approximately 50 basis points compared to Q1 2024, the company is poised to maintain its operational expenditure growth at a low-to-mid-single digit percentage rate. <br><br>Furthermore, Shopify has signaled its intention to sustain the double-digit free cash flow margin achieved over the past three quarters, underscoring its commitment to financial discipline and operational efficiency.</p> <iframe src="https://tokenist.substack.com/embed" width="100%" height="320" style="border:1px solid #EEE; background:white;" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>
