Moat

69 /100

Moderate moat

How hard Etsy's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 10 years of its own filings: returns on capital, pricing power, profit durability, cash conversion and discipline.

  • Returns on capital 20 / 20

    Cash operating profit has been a median 30.0% of total assets over 8 years.

  • Pricing power 20 / 20

    Gross margin has been a median 70.6%, moving by 2.4 percentage points (standard deviation) across 10 years.

  • Durability 3 / 20

    Operating margin has been a median 12.3%; its worst year was -26.5%.

  • Cash conversion 20 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 10 of 10 years, at a median 25.6% of revenue.

  • Discipline 11 / 20

    The diluted share count fell 1.9% over five years; stock-based pay has been a median 6.9% of revenue.

AI disruption exposure: Medium. In this industry, AI could change how the product is made or sold, without replacing the core asset. The score above includes a 5-point deduction for that exposure (74 before it).
