Shopify Continues Its Torrid Growth

Shopify Inc. (NYSE: SHOP) has been on quite a roll lately, and expectations were high going into the release of its financial results. The company, which provides software for small and medium-sized business to create e-commerce websites, has been on fire since it first went public in mid-2015. The stock had risen an impressive 115% since its IPO, so the bar was set pretty high, but Shopify didn't disappoint.

For the just-completed quarter, Shopify produced revenue that grew to $151.65 million, up 75% year over year, while its net loss grew to $14.03 million, which amounted to a loss per share of $0.15. The company has continued to focus on growth rather than profitability at these early stages.
