Riskified Lifts 2025 Outlook and Adds $75 Million Share Buyback

Riskified Ltd., the New York-listed provider of AI-driven e-commerce fraud prevention, reported second-quarter revenue of $81.1 million, a 3% increase that edged past analyst expectations. Non-GAAP earnings were unchanged at $0.02 a share, while the company recorded a GAAP net loss of $11.6 million. Gross merchandise volume handled by the platform rose 4% to $36.4 billion. Management raised full-year 2025 revenue guidance to a range of $336 million to $346 million, citing new merchant wins, stronger upselling and expanding demand for its risk-intelligence products in Japan and the ticketing sector. The company also highlighted positive free cash flow of $5.3 million for the quarter and ended June with $339 million in cash and no debt. Riskified’s board authorised an additional $75 million share-buyback, lifting the total programme to roughly $300 million. The company said the repurchases will be funded from existing cash, underscoring confidence in its long-term growth prospects amid intensifying competition in fraud-prevention software.
