Oddity Tech Ltd. (NASDAQ:ODD) shares rose 23.99% in premarket trading on Wednesday after the beauty and wellness technology company reported second-quarter earnings and revenue above analyst expectations and provided its third-quarter outlook.
Adjusted earnings per share were $0.20, compared with the analyst consensus estimate of $0.19.
Revenue totalled $181 million, exceeding the analyst estimate of $176.48 million but declining 25% year over year from $241 million.
