The RealReal, Inc. (NASDAQ:REAL ) Q2 2024 Earnings Conference Call August 6, 2024 5:00 PM ET Company Participants Caitlin Howe - SVP of Finance John Koryl - CEO Rati Levesque - President and COO Ajay Gopal - CFO Conference Call Participants Chandana Madaka - KeyBank Capital Markets Marvin Fong - BTIG Operator Good day and thank you for standing by. Welcome to the RealReal Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results Conference Call.
The RealReal has returned to 2% y/y GMV growth in Q1, following a -9% y/y decline in Q4. Impressively, Q1 GMV also grew nominally versus the Q4 holiday quarter. The company expects continued GMV acceleration in Q2. REAL's decision to focus on consignment revenue and ditch its direct sales business has also dramatically improved its profitability.
