Groupon’s revenue of $617.40 million for the second quarter of 2018 was also a blow to GRPN stock today. It’s down from the company’s revenue of $662.62 million that was reported in the same period of the year prior. GRPN’s revenue for the quarter also couldn’t match analysts’ revenue estimate of $632.46 million.
