Fiverr Announces Third Quarter 2026 Results

  • Higher-value project growth: Projects at or above $1,000 represented 16% of completed projects' gross order amount on a trailing twelve-month basis.
  • AI transformation investments: Advancing the platform by leveraging our Knowledge Graph to match talent based on delivered outcomes, scaling our new Mira AI headhunter to improve project scoping and conversion, and expanding into external LLM ecosystems.
  • Capital allocation and liquidity: Generated $9.5 million in operating cash flow, $9.4 million in free cash flow, and ended the quarter with $316.2 million in cash, cash equivalents, deposits, and marketable securities.
  • 2026 Outlook: Raised financial guidance ranges through fiscal year 2026 to reflect positive tailwinds from AutoDS’s recent high-profile campaign and disciplined cost management, partially offset by persistent search engine traffic headwinds.

NEW YORK, Oct. 29, 2026 -- Fiverr International Ltd. (NYSE: FVRR), the company that is transforming the way the world creates and works together, today reported financial results for the third quarter of 2026. The Company’s shareholder letter, posted on its investor relations website at investors.fiverr.com, includes additional operating results and management commentary.

“As the landscape shifts from traditional search toward GEO and automated workflows, we are proactively executing on a platform transformation to capture the future of work,” said Micha Kaufman, founder and CEO of Fiverr. “Our upmarket push continues to prove the defensibility and value of complex, high-value work. By upgrading our underlying infrastructure, advancing high-precision outcome matching, and embedding directly into the broader LLM ecosystem, we are rebuilding our traffic vectors while positioning our marketplace as the indispensable, agentic-friendly layer powering the future AI economy.”

“Our third quarter results demonstrate the resilience of our lean operating model amidst broader macro disruption. The stronger than expected performance in our services segment allowed us to outperform our previous quarterly guidance and support an upward revision to full year 2026,” said Esti Levy-Dadon, CFO of Fiverr. “With a strong balance sheet and healthy cash position, we are taking a disciplined approach to capital allocation, balancing liquidity, strict cost management, and cash flow generation while funding the key transformation investments to create long-term value.”

Executive Leadership Update

Following her decision not to relocate to Israel, Jinjin Qian has stepped down from her position as Chief Business Officer. The search for her successor, who will be based in Israel, is well advanced. In the interim, day-to-day operations and strategic direction continue to be led by Micha Kaufman, Chief Executive Officer, alongside Esti Levy-Dadon, Chief Financial Officer, who has assumed an expanded operational role to ensure a smooth transition and continuous operational alignment.

Financial Outlook

Our revised financial guidance through the remainder of fiscal year 2026 reflects the impact of several items. First, our better than expected performance in Q3’26, which exceeded our previously provided guidance. A primary driver of that strength was our Services segment, driven by AutoDS and e-commerce expansion, along with continued strict expense management. Second, these positive drivers continue to be offset by ongoing demand and search traffic headwinds across the marketplace stemming from AI-related disruption to traditional SEO and SEM. Third, the positive trends associated with AutoDS and e-commerce expansion are expected to continue through 2026.

We expect the shift from search to AI-driven discovery to drive a steeper decline than previously expected in marketplace traffic through 2027. While we anticipate lower year-over-year operational expenses in 2027, the reduction will be offset by the ongoing demand and search traffic headwinds, resulting in downward pressure on 2027 Adjusted EBITDA margin. We will provide full 2027 financial guidance when we report fourth quarter results next year.
