November 12, 2021 at 06:55 AM EST

Revenue increased 32.0% to $137.4 million

Raises Fiscal 2021 Outlook

Active customers increased to 2.15 million

Warby Parker Inc. (NYSE: WRBY) (the “Company”), a direct-to-consumer lifestyle brand focused on vision for all, today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.

“Every day, we strive to design high-quality products, deliver remarkable customer experiences, and develop innovative technologies that help the world see. Our strong third quarter results reflect our commitment to achieving these goals while delivering ambitious, long-term sustainable growth,” said Co-Founder and Co-CEO Dave Gilboa.

“We’re incredibly proud of the milestones we achieved in Q3, from opening our second optical lab to going public via a direct listing–and being the first public benefit corporation to do so,” added Co-Founder and Co-CEO Neil Blumenthal. “As we look ahead, we remain laser focused on executing against our growth strategies by increasing our active customer base, expanding our retail footprint, and delivering innovative products and services that further our mission to inspire and impact the world with vision, purpose and style.”

Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results

For the third quarter of 2021, compared to the third quarter of 2020:

Net revenue increased $33.3 million, or 32.0%, to $137.4 million.
Active Customers increased by 395,000, or 23%, to 2.15 million.
Gross profit dollars increased 24.5% to $79.7 million.
Gross margin was 58.0% compared to 61.5% in the prior year, primarily driven by increased penetration of contact lenses versus the prior year, reflecting Warby Parker's strategy to grow its contact lens offering. Gross margin also includes approximately 70 basis points of stock-based compensation expense related to the Company’s direct listing in 2021. In addition, gross margin for third quarter 2020 includes approximately 90 basis points of improvement related to a tariff rebate received.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) increased $66.3 million to $171.6 million, primarily driven by $65.0 million in stock-based compensation expense, $23.9 million in direct listing expenses, and $7.8 million in expense from a stock donation to the Warby Parker Impact Foundation.

Excluding these items, as well as $42.4 million of stock based compensation expense incurred in the third quarter of 2020, SG&A increased $12.0 million, on an adjusted basis. On this basis⁽¹⁾, SG&A as a percentage of revenue improved 590 basis points, from 60.5% to 54.6%, primarily as a result of net revenue growth outpacing SG&A expense growth as Warby Parker maintained disciplined management of its expense profile.

Net loss increased $49.5 million to $91.1 million, primarily as a result of the increase in SG&A described above.
Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ increased $5.8 million, or 106%, to $11.2 million.
Adjusted EBITDA margin⁽¹⁾ increased 290 basis points to 8.1%.
Warby Parker opened nine new stores during the quarter, bringing year-to-date openings to 28, and ended the quarter with 154 stores.

Due to the impact of COVID-19-related store closures last year, Warby Parker is making fiscal year 2021 financial comparisons against fiscal years 2020 and 2019. The consolidated statement of operations for the third quarter of 2019 is included in the tables at the end of this release for reference.

For the third quarter of 2021, compared to the third quarter of 2019:

Net revenue increased $42.6 million, or 45%.
Gross margin was 58.0%, compared to 60.0% in the prior period, primarily driven by an increased penetration of contacts in 2021 versus 2019, reflecting Warby Parker's strategy to grow its contact lens offering. Gross margin also includes approximately 70 basis points of stock-based compensation expense related to the Company’s direct listing in 2021.
SG&A increased $116.3 million to $171.6 million, primarily driven by $65.0 million in stock compensation expense, $23.9 million in direct listing expenses, and $7.8 million in expense from a stock donation to the Warby Parker Impact Foundation. Excluding these items, SG&A increased $20.2 million, on an adjusted basis. On this basis⁽¹⁾, SG&A as a percentage of revenue improved 320 basis points, from 57.8% to 54.6% primarily as a result of net revenue growth outpacing SG&A expense growth as Warby Parker maintained disciplined management of its expense profile.
Net loss increased $92.5 million to $91.1 million, primarily as a result of the increase in SG&A described above.
Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ increased $4.8 million, or 76% to $11.2 million.
Adjusted EBITDA margin⁽¹⁾ increased 140 basis points to 8.1%.

“Our journey to becoming a public company has been incredibly fulfilling and exciting, and we are pleased to report strong financial performance in our first earnings report” said Chief Financial Officer Steve Miller. “Our financial model remains grounded in steady active customer growth, consistent customer retention, and compelling customer economics, which we believe provides the framework for sustainable growth with increasing profitability for years to come.”

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; planned new retail stores in 2021 and going forward; increases in component and shipping costs and changes in supply chain; our ability to compete successfully; our ability to manage our inventory balances and shrinkage; our ability to engage our existing customers and obtain new customers; the growth of our brand awareness; the effects of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic; 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 Registration Statement on Form S-1, as ﬁled with, and declared effective by, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and will be included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021. 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.

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.

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 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 (loss), taxes, and depreciation and amortization as further adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, non-cash charitable donations, and non-recurring costs such as direct listing or other transaction costs. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue.

Adjusted net income is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, non-cash charitable donations, and non-recurring costs such as direct listing or other transaction costs, and as further adjusted for estimated income tax on such adjusted items.

Adjusted earnings 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.

Adjusted gross profit is defined as net revenue minus Adjusted COGS.

Adjusted SG&A is defined as SG&A adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, non-cash charitable donations, and non-recurring costs such as direct listing or other transaction 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, because we do not provide guidance for GAAP Net Margin 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. 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. However, such items could have a significant impact on GAAP Net Margin.
