Warby Parker Announces Third Quarter 2023 Results

Net revenue increased 14.2% year over year to $169.8 million; Company raises outlook

Average Revenue per Customer increased 10.0% year over year to $284

Over 15 million pairs of glasses distributed through our Buy a Pair, Give a Pair program

NEW YORK, November 8, 2023. Warby Parker Inc. (NYSE: WRBY) (“Warby Parker” or the “Company”), a direct-to-consumer lifestyle brand focused on vision for all, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

“In Q3, we were proud to deliver our strongest revenue growth year-to-date at 14.2%,” said Co-Founder and Co-CEO Neil Blumenthal. “Fueling topline results were 11 new store openings, four collection launches, contacts outperformance, and more. Customers continue to find exceptional value in our products, and we are focused on finding more ways to serve them through our growing and highly productive retail footprint, product innovation, and broader holistic vision care services.”

“As we head into the busiest time of year, our team remains laser focused on delivering remarkable experiences and value for our customers. We are confident in our strategic direction and continue to believe we are in the early innings of delivering long-term, profitable growth,” added Co-Founder and Co-CEO Dave Gilboa.

Third Quarter 2023 Highlights

•Net revenue increased $21.1 million, or 14.2%, to $169.8 million.

•GAAP net loss of $17.4 million.

•Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $11.0 million and adjusted EBITDA margin(1) of 6.5%.

•Over 15 million pairs of glasses have now been distributed to people in need through our Buy a Pair, Give a Pair program.

Third Quarter 2023 Year Over Year Financial Results

•Net revenue increased $21.1 million, or 14.2%, to $169.8 million.

•Average Revenue per Customer increased 10.0% to $284. Active Customers increased 1.8% to 2.30 million.

•Gross profit increased 9.8% to $92.7 million.

•Gross margin was 54.6% compared to 56.7% in the prior year period. The decline in gross margin was primarily driven by the growth of contact lenses, which carry lower gross margins than our other eyewear, increased costs associated with optometrists as we scale our eye exam offering across our fleet, and increases in store occupancy costs as a percent of revenue primarily due to increased depreciation and rent charges as we grew our store base to 227 stores, up from 190 in the prior year period.

•Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) were $112.5 million, up $4.4 million from the prior year, and represented 66.2% of revenue, down from 72.6% in the prior year period. Leverage in SG&A was primarily driven by reduced stock-based compensation costs and adjustments to our cost structure made last year, partially offset by increased

marketing costs and technology costs. Adjusted SG&A(1) was $93.4 million, or 55.0% of revenue, versus $82.3 million, or 55.3% of revenue in the prior year period.

•GAAP net loss improved $6.4 million to $17.4 million, primarily as a result of the increase in revenue described above.

•Adjusted EBITDA(1) decreased $0.9 million to $11.0 million and adjusted EBITDA margin(1) decreased 1.5 points to 6.5%.

•Opened 11 new stores during the quarter, ending Q3 with 227 stores.

Balance Sheet Highlights

Warby Parker ended the third quarter of 2023 with $216.0 million in cash and cash equivalents.

2023 Outlook

For the full year 2023, Warby Parker is revising guidance to be as follows:

•Net revenue of $666 to $669 million, representing growth of approximately 11.5% at the midpoint versus full year 2022.

•Adjusted EBITDA(1) of approximately $52.7 million, or adjusted EBITDA margin(1) of 7.9%.

•On track for 40 new store openings this year.

“While both our top and bottom line exceeded our prior outlook for the third quarter, we are cognizant of headwinds facing the consumer in the current macro environment,” said Chief Financial Officer Steve Miller. “Given our outperformance year-to-date, we are raising our full year revenue guidance and maintaining a disciplined approach to spend.”

The guidance and forward-looking statements made in this press release and on our conference call are based on management's expectations as of the date of this press release.

This press release and the related conference call, webcast and presentation contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements may relate to, but are not limited to, expectations of future operating results or financial performance,

including expectations regarding achieving profitability and growth in our e-commerce channel, delivering stakeholder value, growing market share, and our guidance for the quarter and year ending December 31, 2023; expectations regarding the number of new store openings during the year ending December 31, 2023; management’s plans, priorities, initiatives and strategies; and expectations regarding growth of our business. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantiﬁed. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “toward,” “will,” or “would,” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions. You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by, which such performance or results will be achieved, if at all.

Forward-looking statements are based on information available at the time those statements are made and are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections as well as the beliefs and assumptions of management as of that time with respect to future events. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which involve factors or circumstances that are beyond our control, that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. In light of these risks and uncertainties, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this press release may not occur and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include our ability to manage our future growth effectively; our expectations regarding cost of goods sold, gross margin, channel mix, customer mix, and selling, general, and administrative expenses; increases in component and shipping costs and changes in supply chain; our reliance on our information technology systems and enterprise resource planning systems for our business to effectively operate and safeguard confidential information; our ability to engage our existing customers and obtain new customers; planned new retail stores in 2023 and going forward; an overall decline in the health of the economy and other factors impacting consumer spending, such as recessionary conditions, inflation, government instability, and geopolitical unrest; our ability to compete successfully; our ability to manage our inventory balances and shrinkage; the growth of our brand awareness; our ability to recruit and retain optometrists, opticians, and other vision care professionals; a resurgence of COVID-19 or the spread of new infectious diseases; the effects of seasonal trends on our results of operations; our ability to stay in compliance with extensive laws and regulations that apply to our business and operations; our ability to adequately maintain and protect our intellectual property and proprietary rights; our reliance on third parties for our products, operation and infrastructure; our duties related to being a public benefit corporation; the ability of our Co-Founders and Co-CEOs to exercise significant influence over all matters submitted to stockholders for approval; the effect of our multi-class structure on the trading price of our Class A common stock; and the increased expenses associated with being a public company. Additional information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's expectations is included in our most recent reports filed with the SEC on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q. Except as required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments, or otherwise.

Additional information regarding these and other factors that could affect the Company’s results is included in the Company’s SEC filings, which may be obtained by visiting the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. Information contained on, or that is referenced or can be accessed through, our

website does not constitute part of this document and inclusions of any website addresses herein are inactive textual references only.

Glossary

Active Customer is defined as a unique customer that has made at least one purchase of any product or service in the preceding 12-month period.

Average Revenue per Customer is defined as net revenue for a given period divided by the number of Active Customers as of the end of that same period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted cost of goods sold (“adjusted COGS”), adjusted gross margin, adjusted gross profit, and adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses (“adjusted SG&A”) as important indicators of our operating performance. Collectively, we refer to these non-GAAP financial measures as our “Non-GAAP Measures.” The Non-GAAP Measures, when taken collectively with our GAAP results, may be helpful to investors because they provide consistency and comparability with past financial performance and assist in comparisons with other companies, some of which use similar non-GAAP financial information to supplement their GAAP results.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest and other income, taxes, and depreciation and amortization as further adjusted for asset impairment costs, stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes, amortization of cloud-based software implementation costs, non-cash charitable donations, and non-recurring costs such as major system implementation costs and restructuring costs. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue.

Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes, non-cash charitable donations, and non-recurring costs such as major system implementation costs and restructuring costs, and as further adjusted for estimated income tax on such adjusted items.

Adjusted earnings (loss) per share is defined as adjusted net income (loss) divided by adjusted weighted average shares outstanding.

Adjusted COGS is defined as cost of goods sold adjusted for stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes.

Adjusted gross profit is defined as net revenue minus adjusted COGS. Adjusted gross margin is defined as adjusted gross profit divided by net revenue.

Adjusted SG&A is defined as SG&A adjusted for stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes, non-cash charitable donations, and non-recurring costs such as major system implementation costs and restructuring costs.

The Non-GAAP Measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only. A reconciliation of historical GAAP to Non-GAAP financial information is included under “Selected Financial Information” below.

We have not reconciled our adjusted EBITDA margin guidance to GAAP net income (loss) margin, or net margin, or adjusted EBITDA guidance to GAAP net income (loss) because we do not provide guidance for GAAP net margin or GAAP net income (loss) due to the uncertainty and

potential variability of stock-based compensation and taxes, which are reconciling items between GAAP net margin and adjusted EBITDA margin and GAAP net income (loss) and adjusted EBITDA, respectively. Because such items cannot be reasonably provided without unreasonable efforts, we are unable to provide a reconciliation of the adjusted EBITDA margin guidance to GAAP net margin and adjusted EBITDA guidance to GAAP net income (loss). However, such items could have a significant impact on GAAP net margin and GAAP net income (loss).
