(MENAFN- The Rio Times) LWSA, formerly known as Locaweb, has reported impressive results for the third quarter of 2024. The company's net reached R$16.9 million ($2.96 million), marking a staggering 336.4% increase compared to the same period last year. This substantial growth reflects LWSA's ability to navigate challenging conditions effectively.



The company's adjusted net profit for Q3 2024 stood at R$37 million ($6.49 million), representing a 52.7% year-over-year increase. LWSA's strong performance stems from significant productivity gains and robust operational indicators.



The company saw an 18% increase in its Own Store Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) and a 15.9% rise in Ecosystem GMV compared to Q3 2023. LWSA's EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization) reached R$67.7 million ($11.88 million), showing a 50.7% increase from the previous year.



The adjusted EBITDA climbed to R$73.7 million ($12.93 million), a 36.2% year-over-year growth. This performance reflects the fair value remeasurement of Earnouts and reduced expenses related to receivables anticipation in payment operations.







The company' net operating revenue for Q3 2024 totaled R$349.3 million ($61.28 million), a 5.8% increase compared to the same period in 2023. This growth was primarily driven by the Commerce segment, which saw a 19.7% revenue increase, and the BeOnline/SaaS segment, with a 22.2% revenue growth.



LWSA's financial health has also improved, with net debt decreasing by 58.4% year-over-year to R$460.3 million ($80.75 million). The company reported a financial result of R$8.5 million ($1.49 million) for Q3 2024, a 101.2% change from the previous year.



This performance was influenced by receivables anticipation expenses in payment operations and lower financial income related to cash application.
