November 10, 2022 at 06:45 AM EST

Revenue increased 8.3% to $148.8 million

Active customers increased 5.1% to 2.26 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 third quarter ended September 30, 2022.

“Thanks to our team’s hard work and execution, Warby Parker delivered solid results in a quarter where inflationary concerns and weakening consumer demand continue to impact our industry,” said Co-Founder and Co-CEO Dave Gilboa. “Our team took important steps to advance our mission and strategic growth initiatives, all while maintaining our focus on exceeding customer expectations and making it easier to choose Warby Parker. This quarter, we meaningfully invested in our eye exam business, expanded our contacts business, and opened 13 new stores, bringing our total store count to 190.”

“Despite a challenging operational environment, our brand, value proposition, and omnichannel model continue to resonate with consumers and drive incremental demand. Warby Parker offers customers more options and better value than ever before, and, in turn, customers are spending more with us. As we approach the holiday season, we aim to build on our loyal customer base, deliver significant value to all our stakeholders, and execute on our vision for reshaping the industry,” added Co-Founder and Co-CEO Neil Blumenthal.

Third Quarter 2022 Highlights

Net revenue increased $11.4 million, or 8.3%, to $148.8 million compared to third quarter 2021 and increased 16.2% on a 3-year CAGR basis compared to the third quarter of 2019.
Active Customers increased 5.1% to 2.26 million year over year.
Average Revenue per Customer increased 6.8% year over year to $258.
Q3 2022 GAAP net loss of $23.8 million.
Q3 2022 Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ of $11.9 million and an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 8.0%, an increase of 400 basis points from Q2 2022.
Opened 13 new stores during the quarter, ending the quarter with 190 stores.
Contact lens revenue increased by nearly 50% year over year.

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

For the third quarter of 2022, compared to the third quarter of 2021:

Net revenue increased $11.4 million, or 8.3%, to $148.8 million.
Active Customers increased by 110,000, or 5.1%, to 2.26 million.
Gross profit dollars increased 6.0% to $84.4 million.
Gross margin was 56.7% compared to 58.0% in the prior year. The decline in gross margin was primarily driven by the impact of the growth in the Company's store count driving higher store occupancy and depreciation costs, the increased penetration of contact lenses, which carry lower gross margins than eyeglasses, reflecting Warby Parker’s strategy to grow its contact lens offering, and an increase in salary and benefit costs associated with optometrists as we scale our eye exam offering across our fleet, to 139 exam locations, up from 95 in the prior year period. This was partially offset by the scaling of higher margin progressive lenses and leverage from the Company’s in-house optical laboratory network.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) decreased $63.6 million to $108.1 million, or 72.6% of revenue, primarily driven by stock-based compensation and related payroll taxes and professional costs incurred in 2021 related to the Company’s direct listing. Also contributing to the decrease were lower charitable expenses related to the donation of stock to the Warby Parker Foundation, which was completed in the second quarter in 2022, as compared to the third quarter in 2021. Excluding one-time and non-cash costs in both years, adjusted SG&A⁽¹⁾ increased $7.2 million to $82.2 million and increased 60 basis points as a percentage of revenue to 55.2% from 54.6%, primarily due to increased insurance costs related to operating as a public company, higher compensation costs, mainly from growth in our retail workforce, increased technology costs to support business growth, and increased depreciation and amortization costs, mainly related to capitalized software and office build outs, partially offset by lower marketing costs and reduced costs of the Company’s Home Try-On program as a result of reduced utilization. On a sequential basis, adjusted SG&A⁽¹⁾ decreased from 59.2% of revenue in Q2 2022 to 55.2% of revenue in Q3 2022.
Net loss decreased $67.2 million to $23.8 million, primarily as a result of the decrease in SG&A described above.
Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ increased $0.7 million to $11.9 million.
Adjusted EBITDA margin⁽¹⁾ decreased 10 basis points to 8.0%. On a sequential basis, Adjusted EBITDA margin⁽¹⁾ increased 400 basis points from Q2 2022.

Balance Sheet Highlights

Warby Parker ended the third quarter of 2022 with $197.9 million in cash and cash equivalents.

Updated 2022 Outlook

For the full year 2022, Warby Parker is revising its outlook to the following:

Net revenue of $590 to $596 million, representing growth of 9.1% to 10.2% versus full year 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ of approximately $25 to $27 million, or Adjusted EBITDA margin⁽¹⁾ of approximately 4.2% to 4.5%.
40 new store openings bringing the total projected store count at year-end to 200.

“We continue to take a disciplined approach to actively managing costs while prudently investing in the business, and our Q3 results demonstrate those efforts,” said Chief Financial Officer Steve Miller. “We are pleased to deliver net revenue above our revised outlook despite the macroeconomic headwinds that continue to pressure the market. As we enter our final quarter of the fiscal year, we believe Warby Parker is well positioned to grow market share, achieve its financial goals, and deliver value to shareholders.”

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.

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 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 restructuring costs, major system implementation costs, and 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 and related employer payroll taxes, amortization of cloud-based software implementation costs, non-cash charitable donations, and non-recurring costs such as restructuring costs, major system implementation costs, and 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 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 SG&A is defined as SG&A adjusted for 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 restructuring costs, major system implementation costs, and 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, 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).
