Thank you operator, and welcome everyone to today’s call. Beauty on last years considerable success our first quarter of 2024 demonstrated that GigaCloud’s ability to drive sustainable and profitable growth. Amidst the industry challenges and headwins we’re pleased to share GigaCloud’s strongest ever first quarter results and our fifth consecutive quarter of revenue growth. This comes even as the consumer spending softens. For instance, the US Consensus Bureau reported an almost 8% year-over-year decline in retail furniture sales of Q1 2024.
Despite these headwinds, GigaCloud achieved the top line results that nearly doubled the year-over-year while also generating significant improvement in other key financial and operational metrics. These achievements demonstrate our resilient and ability to thrive amidst the market's downturns. As we continue to integrate Noble House and the Wondersign acquisitions, we expect to see ongoing revenue growth and the powerful synergies that we believe will create an even more robust and efficient online B2B marketplace.
In addition to strategic nature of these acquisitions, we have taken extra steps to further accelerate the growth of our business. Firstly, we launched a new marketplace service called the Branding-as-a-Service or BaaS to help seller amplify their product competitiveness in the GigaCloud marketplace.
