Shares of Peloton, which rose nearly 346% since the beginning of the year, rose 2% during trading on Friday after the company published the results of the first quarter of fiscal 2021, which ended September 30.
Peloton, which went public a little over a year ago, reported earnings per share for the second quarter in a row: $ 0.20, which is $ 0.09 more than analysts’ estimates of $ 0.11, and much better than losses per share – $ 1, 29 in the first quarter of 2020.

Total 1st quarter revenue rose by 232% to $ 757.9 million, which also exceeded Wall Street’s expectations of $ 748.04 million.
It is known that the fitness company Peloton receives most of its revenue from the sale of bicycles and treadmills with displays, and to a lesser extent from subscriptions to its digital online platform for various types of fitness. However, the company does not provide separate figures for these revenue segments.
Available Peloton bikes and treadmills range in price from $ 1895 to $ 4295, and new features introduced in September: the treadmill and Tread bike will cost less than $ 3000 and $ 2495 and will be launched in early 2021.

The company’s management noted that during the quarter, the Peloton team continued to increase the amount of content on the platform, creating more than 2,400 new fitness lessons.
