Sezzle Inc. SEZL is scheduled to release its first-quarter 2025 results on May 7, after the bell. SEZL surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in the fourth quarter of 2024 by 40.7%.
Sezzle’s Q1 Expectations
The Zacks Consensus Estimate projects revenues at $64.8 million, marking a 37.9% increase from the year-ago quarter. This anticipated top-line growth is likely driven by a larger, more engaged subscriber base and favorable momentum from the company’s partnership with WebBank. As part of this collaboration, the company introduced Sezzle On-Demand, enabling non-subscribers to access the Sezzle Platform at any online or in-store merchant by paying a one-time finance charge.
For the bottom line, the consensus estimate stands at 32 cents per share, indicating a 45.5% year-over-year increase, supported by strong revenue gains and disciplined cost management.
