GSI Commerce Inc.'s (GSIC) second-quarter loss widened as the company's costs offset a big jump in revenue.

Shares of the company, which develops and operates e-commerce sporting goods businesses for retailers and other organizations, dropped 5.8% to $25 after hours as results fell short of analysts' forecasts. As of the close, the stock had risen 65% in the past year.

The company also forecast current-quarter revenue of $280 million. Analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters most recently projected $273 million.

GSI has seen big revenue gains as the company has made recent acquisitions. Still, it hasn't been able to keep itself away from red ink, having posted losses in seven of its nine most recent quarters.

GSI Commerce reported a loss of $25.7 million, or 41 cents a share, from a year-earlier loss of $13.1 million, or 27 cents a share. There were 30% more shares outstanding in the most recent quarter.

Revenue rose 41% to $264.2 million. Total costs and expenses jumped 44%.


Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters had most recently forecast a loss of 23 cents on $265 million in revenue.
