SANTA MONICA, Calif., November 2, 2023 — FIGS, Inc. (NYSE: FIGS) (the “Company”), the direct-to-consumer apparel and lifestyle brand dedicated to the healthcare community, today released its third quarter 2023 financial results and published a financial highlights presentation on its investor relations website at ir.wearfigs.com/financials/quarterly-results.

•Net revenues were $142.4 million, an increase of 10.7% year over year, driven by an increase in orders from existing and new customers and, to a lesser extent, an increase in average order value (“AOV”).

•Gross margin was 68.4%, a decrease of 220 basis points year over year, primarily due to product mix shift and, to a lesser extent, a higher mix of promotional sales and higher duties, partially offset by lower air freight utilization and ocean freight rates.

•Operating expenses were $87.4 million, an increase of 9.8% year over year. As a percentage of net revenues, operating expenses decreased to 61.5% from 61.9% in the prior year period due to lower selling expenses associated with reduced storage costs within fulfillment, and lower marketing expenses as a result of greater efficiency in digital marketing.

•Net income was $6.1 million and diluted earnings per share was $0.03.

•Net income margin(1) was 4.2%, as compared to 3.1% in the same period last year.

•Net income, as adjusted(2) was $6.3 million and diluted earnings per share, as adjusted(2) was $0.03.

•Adjusted EBITDA(2) was $24.4 million, an increase of $3.4 million year over year.

•Active customers(3) as of September 30, 2023 increased 19.6% to 2.6 million.

•Net revenues per active customer(3) were $212, a decrease of 6.6% year over year.

•AOV(3) was $114, an increase of 1.8% year over year, primarily driven by an increase in units per transaction and, to a lesser degree, an increase in average unit retail.

“We are pleased with our third quarter performance and to be raising our full year guidance,” said Trina Spear, Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder. “Net revenues growth of 11% and adjusted EBITDA margin expansion to 17.2% exceeded our expectations and led to $46 million in free cash flow(2) generation in the third quarter. Through strong execution of our strategic priorities, we added more new healthcare professionals to our active customer base than in any prior year, delivered record growth in our international and TEAMS businesses and deepened engagement with our community through advocacy.

(1) “Net income margin” and “adjusted EBITDA margin” are calculated by dividing net income and adjusted EBITDA by net revenues, respectively.

(2) “Net income, as adjusted,” “diluted earnings per share, as adjusted,” “adjusted EBITDA,” “adjusted EBITDA margin” and “free cash flow” are non-GAAP financial measures. Please see the sections titled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Operating Metrics” and “Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures” below for more information regarding the Company’s use of non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

(3) “Active customers,” “net revenues per active customer” and “average order value” are key operational and business metrics that are important to understanding the Company’s performance. Please see the sections titled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Operating Metrics” and “Key Operating Metrics” below for information regarding how the Company calculates its key operational and business metrics and for comparisons of active customers, net revenues per active customer and average order value to the prior year period.

(4) The Company has not provided a quantitative reconciliation of its adjusted EBITDA margin outlook to a GAAP net income margin outlook because it is unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to project certain reconciling items. These items include, but are not limited to, future stock-based compensation expense, income taxes, expenses related to non-ordinary course disputes and transaction costs. These items are inherently variable and uncertain and depend on various factors, some of which are outside of the Company’s control or ability to predict. For more information regarding the Company’s use of non-GAAP financial measures, please see the section titled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Operating Metrics.”

In addition to the GAAP financial measures set forth in this press release, the Company has included non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K. The Company uses “net income, as adjusted,” “diluted earnings per share, as adjusted,” “adjusted EBITDA” and “adjusted EBITDA margin” to provide useful supplemental measures that assist in evaluating its ability to generate earnings, provide consistency and comparability with its past financial performance and facilitate period-to-period comparisons of its core operating results as well as the results of its peer companies. The Company uses “free cash flow” as a useful supplemental measure of liquidity and as an additional basis for assessing its ability to generate cash. The Company calculates “net income, as adjusted,” as net income adjusted to exclude transaction costs, expenses related to non-ordinary course disputes, other than temporary impairment of held-to-maturity investments, stock-based compensation, including expense related to award modifications, accelerated performance awards and associated payroll taxes and costs, ambassador grants in connection with its initial public offering, and expense resulting from the retirement of the Company’s previous CFO, and the income tax impact of these adjustments. The Company calculates “diluted earnings per share, as adjusted” as net income, as adjusted divided by diluted shares outstanding. The Company calculates “adjusted EBITDA” as net income adjusted to exclude: other income (loss), net; gain/loss on disposal of assets; provision for income taxes; depreciation and amortization expense; stock-based compensation and related expense; transaction costs; and expenses related to non-ordinary course disputes. The Company calculates “adjusted EBITDA margin” by dividing adjusted EBITDA by net revenues. The Company calculates “free cash flow” as net cash (used in) provided by operating activities reduced by capital expenditures, including purchases of property and equipment and capitalized software development costs.

Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included below under the heading “Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures.”

The Company has also included herein “active customers,” “net revenues per active customer” and “average order value,” which are key operational and business metrics that are important to understanding Company performance. The number of active customers is an important indicator of growth as it reflects the reach of the Company’s digital platform, brand awareness and overall value proposition. The Company defines an active customer as a unique customer account that has made at least one purchase in the preceding 12-month period. In any particular period, the Company determines the number of active customers by counting the total number of customers who have made at least one purchase in the preceding 12-month period, measured from the last date of such period. The Company believes measuring net revenues per active customer is important to understanding engagement and retention of customers, and as such, the value proposition for its customer base. The Company defines net revenues per active customer as the sum of total net revenues in the preceding 12-month period divided by the current period active customers. The Company defines average order value as the sum of the total net revenues in a given period divided by the total orders placed in that period. Total orders are the summation of all completed individual purchase transactions in a given period. The Company believes its relatively high average order value demonstrates the premium nature of its products. As the Company expands into and increases its presence in additional product categories, price points and international markets, average order value may fluctuate.

Active customers as of September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, net revenues per active customer as of September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and average order value for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, are presented below under the heading “Key Operating Metrics.”
