What were the key financial metrics reported in the Q2 2025 earnings, and how do they compare to analyst expectations?

The excerpt you provided only tells us that Tripadvisor, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRIP) has posted its second‑quarter 2025 earnings press release and where it can be accessed (the company’s investor‑relations website and the SEC portal). Unfortunately, that summary does not contain any of the actual financial results—such as revenue, net income, earnings per share, gross margin, adjusted EBITDA, or any guidance—and it also does not include the analysts’ consensus expectations for those numbers.

Because the specific metrics and the analysts’ forecasts are not included in the information you shared, I can’t give you a detailed comparison of what Tripadvisor reported versus what Wall Street expected.

What you can do next

  1. Visit the press release – Go to the Investor Relations site at ir.tripadvisor.com (or the SEC filing at www.sec.gov) and download the Q2 2025 earnings release. It will list:

    • Total revenue (and year‑over‑year growth)
    • Net income / loss
    • Diluted earnings per share (GAAP and non‑GAAP)
    • Adjusted EBITDA (if disclosed)
    • Any segment‑level performance (e.g., bookings, advertising, etc.)
    • Guidance for the remainder of 2025, if provided

  2. Check analyst consensus – Financial data platforms such as Bloomberg, FactSet, Refinitiv, S&P Capital IQ, or even the “Earnings Estimates” tab on Yahoo Finance or NASDAQ’s website will show the median analyst forecasts for the same metrics (revenue, EPS, etc.) that were in effect prior to the release.

  3. Compare side‑by‑side – Once you have both the reported numbers and the consensus estimates, you can calculate:

    • Revenue surprise = (Reported revenue − Consensus revenue) ÷ Consensus revenue × 100 %
    • EPS surprise = (Reported EPS − Consensus EPS) ÷ Consensus EPS × 100 %
    • Highlight any metric that beat or missed expectations, and note the magnitude of the deviation.

If you retrieve those figures and would like help interpreting them—e.g., understanding why revenue may have outperformed, why EPS missed, or what the implications are for the stock price—I’d be glad to walk through the analysis with you.
