Warby Parker Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2021 Results

2021 revenue increased 37% to $540.8 million

Active customers increased 22% to 2.20 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 fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2021.

“2021 was a milestone year for Warby Parker, and one filled with moments that reinforce our commitment to driving scale and creating impact,” said Co-Founder and Co-CEO Neil Blumenthal. “Despite the ongoing impacts of the pandemic, our 2021 performance reflects the strength of our brand, our unique value proposition, and the resilience of our highly engaged team as we continue to deliver long-term sustainable growth. As we turn the page to 2022, we’ve never been more energized by the possibilities in front of us.”

“We operate in a large and growing category and are emerging from the pandemic in a position of strength. During 2021, our business grew significantly, expanded profitability, and gained share,” added Co-Founder and Co-CEO Dave Gilboa. “From broadening our glasses, contacts, and exam offerings to opening 40 new stores and introducing first-to-market digital tools, this year we look forward to solving more problems, delighting more customers, and creating even more value and impact for our stakeholders.”

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2021 Highlights

  • Full year net revenue increased $147.1 million, or 37.4%, to $540.8 million compared to full year 2020 and increased 46.0% compared to full year 2019.
  • Fourth quarter net revenue increased $20.1 million, or 17.8%, to $132.9 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2020 and increased 41.9% compared to the fourth quarter of 2019.
  • Increased active customers 21.5% to 2.20 million year over year.
  • Average revenue per customer increased 13.0% year over year to $246.
  • Full year GAAP net loss of $144.3 million.
  • Full year adjusted EBITDA of $24.9 million, with adjusted EBITDA margin improvement of 270 basis points year over year to 4.6%.
  • Opened 35 new stores during the year, ending 2021 with 161 stores.
  • Doubled full year revenue of our contact lens offering year over year.
  • Maintained 80+ Net Promoter Score.
  • Opened second in-house optical lab strengthening Warby Parker’s vertically integrated supply chain.

  • Became the first public benefit corporation to go public through a direct listing.

Fourth Quarter 2021 Financial Results

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

  • Net revenue increased $20.1 million, or 17.8%, to $132.9 million. Fourth quarter revenue was negatively impacted by the Omicron variant, with disruption heightened in the last weeks of December, coinciding with peak demand in the optical industry as customers seek to utilize flexible spending dollars ahead of December 31st expirations.
  • Active customers increased by 390,000, or 21.5%, to 2.20 million.
  • Gross profit dollars increased 17.0% to $76.3 million.
  • Gross margin was 57.4% compared to 57.8% in the prior year. Gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2020 includes a benefit of approximately 70 basis points related to a tariff rebate received. Excluding this 2020 benefit, gross margin would have improved year over year, driven by the scaling of progressive lenses as well as benefits from continued inventory and product strategy optimization, partially offset by increased penetration of contacts lenses, reflecting Warby Parker’s strategy to grow its contact lens offering.
  • Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) increased $51.9 million to $122.1 million, primarily driven by an increase of $31.6 million in stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes. Excluding these expenses in both years, SG&A increased $73.3 million to $89.4 million, on an adjusted basis(1). On this basis, SG&A as a percentage of revenue increased 600 basis points to 67.3% from 61.3%, in-line with pre-pandemic spend levels, primarily driven by strategic investments in marketing to build awareness and support demand over the important holiday and flexible spending expiry season.
  • Net loss increased $41.6 million to $45.9 million, primarily as a result of the increase in SG&A described above.
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1) decreased $7.5 million to $(6.4) million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin(1) decreased 570 basis points to (4.8)%.
  • Warby Parker opened seven new stores during the quarter, bringing year-to-date openings to 35, and ended the year with 161 stores.

Due to the impact of COVID-19, Warby Parker is making full year 2021 financial comparisons against full years 2020 and 2019. The consolidated statements of operations for the fourth quarter and full year of 2019 are included in the tables at the end of this release for reference.

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

  • Net revenue increased $39.3 million, or 41.9%, to $132.9 million.
  • Gross margin was 57.4%, compared to 57.0% in 2019, primarily driven by the scaling of progressive lenses as well as a benefits from continued inventory and product strategy optimization, partially offset by increased penetration of contacts lenses.
  • SG&A increased $55.3 million to $122.1 million, primarily driven by an increase of $28.3 million in stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes. Excluding these expenses in both years, SG&A increased $99.7 million to $89.4 million, on an adjusted basis(1). On this basis, SG&A as a percentage of revenue increased 60 basis points, from 66.7% to 67.3%, primarily driven by strategic investments in marketing to build awareness and support demand over the important holiday and flexible spending expiry season, partially offset by leverage in corporate salaries and general corporate overhead as a result of net revenue growth outpacing expense growth.
  • Net loss increased $34.0 million to $45.9 million, primarily as a result of the increase in SG&A described above.
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1) decreased $1.3 million to $(6.4) million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin(1) increased 60 basis points to (4.8)%.

Full Year 2021 Financial Results

For the full year 2021, compared to the full year 2020:

  • Net revenue increased $147.1 million, or 37.4%, to $540.8 million.
  • Active customers increased by 390,000, or 21.5%, to 2.20 million.
  • Gross profit dollars increased 37.0% to $317.7 million.
  • Gross margin was 58.8% compared to 58.9% in the prior year. Gross margin for full year 2020 includes a benefit of approximately 40 basis points related to a tariff rebate received. When excluding this 2020 benefit, gross margin expansion would have improved, primarily driven by the impact of the temporary closure of our retail stores in 2020 due to COVID-19, partially offset by increased penetration of contacts lenses, reflecting Warby Parker’s strategy to grow its contact lens offering.
  • SG&A increased $173.8 million to $461.4 million, primarily driven an increase in stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes of $64.5 million, $28.3 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 $20.3 million, on an adjusted basis. On this basis(1), SG&A as a percentage of revenue improved by 320 basis points, from 61.6% to 58.4%, 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 $88.4 million to $144.3 million, primarily as a result of the increase in SG&A described above.
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased $17.2 million, or 224.6%, to $24.9 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin(1) increased 270 basis points to 4.6%.
  • Warby Parker opened 35 net new stores, ending the year with 161 stores.

For the full year 2021, compared to the full year 2019:

  • Net revenue increased $170.3 million, or 46.0%.
  • Gross margin was 58.8%, compared to 60.2% in 2019, primarily driven by increased penetration of contacts in 2021 versus 2019.
  • SG&A increased $236.6 million to $461.4 million, primarily driven by an increase in stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes of $28.3 million, $28.3 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 $27.0 million, on an adjusted basis. On this basis(1), SG&A as a percentage of revenue was flat at 58.4%, as strategic investments in marketing to build awareness and support growth were offset by leverage across salaries and corporate overhead as net revenue growth outpaced expense growth.
  • Net loss increased $144.3 million to $144.3 million, primarily as a result of the increase in SG&A described above.
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased $3.0 million, or 13.7% to $24.9 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin(1) decreased 130 basis points to 4.6%.

Balance Sheet Highlights

Warby Parker ended 2021 with $256.4 million in cash and cash equivalents.

2022 Outlook

For the full year 2022, Warby Parker expects:

  • Net revenue of $650 to $660 million, representing growth 20% to 22% versus full year 2021. This outlook includes the impact of approximately $15 million in lost sales, or 3 percentage points of growth, related to the disruption caused by Omicron to the start of the year.
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin(1) of approximately 5.6% to 6.6%.
  • 40 new store openings bringing total store count to 201.

“While the end of 2021 and the start of 2022 were impacted by Omicron, we are incredibly proud to have delivered another year of robust growth,” said Chief Financial Officer Steve Miller. “And as we look ahead to 2022 and beyond, we are focused on executing Warby Parker’s distinct growth strategies to increase our 1% market share within the growing $160 billion eyewear market. At the heart of it all remains our team’s commitment to designing and delivering innovative products and services that will help the world see.”

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 and do not incorporate future unknown direct or indirect impacts from further resurgences in COVID-19, including the Delta and Omicron variants.

These statements may relate to, but are not limited to, expectations of future operating results or financial performance, including expectations regarding achieving profitability and our GAAP and non-GAAP guidance for the for the quarter ending March 31, 2022 and the year ending December 31, 2022; 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.

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 2022 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.

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.

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 (loss), taxes, and depreciation and amortization as further adjusted for stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes, 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 and related employer payroll taxes, 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 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, 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.
