Q2 net loss expanded to $(22.5) million compared to net income of $4.4 million in Q2 2024, mainly due to a $33 million FTC settlement reserve that impacted profitability (Nasdaq).
Transaction Value in the Health insurance vertical dropped 32% year over year to $37 million in Q2 and is expected to decline another 40%–45% in Q3, pointing to volatility and possible contraction in a key segment (Nasdaq).
