LightInTheBox Holding Co., Ltd. (US53225G2012) faced a lower valuation from Edison after its second-quarter revenue declined 4.00 percent to USD 57.00 million. In a report dated September 15, 2026, Edison reduced its valuation to USD 5.49 per American depositary share from USD 6.24.

September valuation reset

Edison linked the reduction to weaker sales momentum in the second quarter of 2026. The research house forecast overall revenue growth of 4.00 percent for fiscal year 2026, compared with its earlier 12.00 percent assumption, while cutting its fiscal-year profit-before-tax estimates by 14.00 percent for 2026 and 29.00 percent for 2027.

The report still identified operating improvement. Revenue for the first half of 2026 rose 3.00 percent to USD 109.00 million, gross profit increased 3.00 percent to USD 71.00 million, and operating income climbed 58.00 percent to USD 3.20 million.

What does the margin mean?

LightInTheBox's second-quarter revenue was USD 56.82 million for the period ended June 30, 2026, while net income was USD 1.57 million and gross profit was USD 37.57 million. The figures came from the company's quarterly financial statements, and the second-quarter revenue was below the USD 58.88 million reported for the same quarter a year earlier, according to the earnings-call transcript carried by Yahoo Finance.

Management reported first-half revenue of USD 108.80 million and first-half net income of USD 2.70 million in the same transcript. Second-quarter gross margin held at 66.10 percent, compared with 65.90 percent a year earlier, even as the company phased out long-tail products.

November results are next

Edison lists third-quarter 2026 results for November 2026. That reporting milestone will show whether the proprietary-brand strategy can offset pressure in legacy product sales and support the higher operating margin seen in the first half.
