Infographic: Highlights of Pinterest’s (PINS) Q4 2021 earnings report
Image sharing platform Pinterest, Inc. (NYSE: PINS) reported higher earnings and revenues for the fourth quarter of 2021, which also topped the market’s expectations. The positive results came as a major boost for the company’s stock which has been on a downward spiral for quite some time. PINS traded higher early Monday, continuing the uptrend that followed the announcement last week.
The San Francisco, California-based company reported adjusted earnings of $0.49 per share for the final three months of fiscal 2021, compared to $0.43 per share in the same period of last year. The latest number also beat analysts’ forecasts. The reported profit was $174.7 million or $0.25 per share, compared to $207.8 million or $0.30 per share in the fourth quarter of 2020.
Driving the bottom-line growth, net revenues rose 20% year-over-year to $846.7 million and came in above analysts’ forecast. Meanwhile, the number of monthly active users decreased 6% year-over-year to $431 million.
“We took important steps in 2021 with the launch of our foundational technology to deliver a video-first publishing platform. As we look ahead to 2022, we plan to further invest in our business as we scale the distribution of Idea Pins through our creator-led content efforts and enhance our core Pinner experience and shopping to make Pinterest the destination for inspiration and action on the internet,” said Ben Silbermann, CEO of Pinterest.
