The real story was the breadth of the acceleration: Shopee posted record quarterly GMV of $32.20 billion, up 28.4% year-on-year, and flipped to a $110.12 million operating profit from a loss a year earlier, while Garena's bookings surged 51.1% to $840.70 million, its strongest quarter since 2021. Net income more than doubled to $374.99 million, and total adjusted EBITDA climbed 67.7% to $874.25 million. Management raised full-year GMV growth guidance to more than 25% and, in a signal of balance sheet confidence, authorized a $1 billion share repurchase program following a post-earnings stock slide.

“After a very strong first half of the year, our momentum has continued into the third quarter. Our focus remains the same: continuing to deliver high and profitable growth across all three of our businesses. With e-commerce and digital finance penetration in our markets still low but increasing, strong growth lays the best foundation to maximize our long-term profitability.”
