- Supplier Services Decline: Supplier services revenue decreased 10% in Q3 and 13% for the nine months, primarily due to the exit from the tools and materials business and reductions in non-core Thomas services.
- Margin Expansion: Gross margin improved to 39.4% in Q3 2024 from 38.9% in Q3 2023. Marketplace gross margin specifically improved to 33.6% from 31.1% due to AI-driven pricing optimization.

- Monitor the trajectory of Adjusted EBITDA, which turned from a significant loss to near break-even in Q3 2024.
