CEO Comments

John Reed, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, commented,

“We are very pleased with our first quarter 2023 performance and are reaffirming our full year 2023 outlook. In addition to the notable performance in our revenue and earnings, our first quarter demand comparable growth(2) was 5.6%, with growth in the first two months of the year up high-single-digits and flat in March. In April, our demand comparable growth was flat.

“We believe that our strong debt-free balance sheet positions us well to successfully navigate the current macroeconomic backdrop while simultaneously executing on the initiatives that underpin our long term growth strategy, including multiple new Showroom projects and new systems upgrades.”

First Quarter 2023 Results

Net revenue increased 23.7% to $305 million, compared to $246 million in the first quarter of 2022. The increase was driven by strong demand in both Showroom and eCommerce sales channels, as well as delivery of orders in backlog as our supply chain improves.

Comparable growth(1) was 21.0% and demand comparable growth(2) was 5.6% in the first quarter of 2023.

Gross margin increased 31.2% to $128 million, compared to $98 million in the first quarter of 2022, driven by higher net revenue, partially offset by higher variable costs related to the increase in net revenue, including product, transportation and variable rent expense as well as higher fixed Showroom costs and credit card fees related to increased interest rates and demand.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased 10.6%, to $83 million, compared to $75 million in the first quarter of 2022, primarily driven by increased corporate expense to support the growth of the business and higher selling expense related to new Showrooms and demand.

Net and comprehensive income was $34 million compared to $16 million in the first quarter of 2022. This increase was primarily driven by higher net revenue, partially offset by the above factors and higher income tax. Adjusted net income was $34 million in the first quarter of 2023 compared to $17 million in the first quarter of 2022.  

Adjusted EBITDA increased 75.8% to $55 million compared to $31 million in the first quarter of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA as a percent of net revenue increased 530 basis points to 18.0% in the first quarter of 2023, compared to 12.7% in the first quarter of 2022.

The Company ended the quarter with 82 total Showrooms across 29 states. On April 14, 2023, the Company opened its eighty-third Showroom, a new Design Studio in Naperville, Illinois.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights, as of March 31, 2023

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $145 million, and the Company had no long-term debt at March 31, 2023. Net merchandise inventory increased 2.0% to $292 million, compared to $286 million as of December 31, 2022. Client deposits decreased 2.3% to $198 million, primarily due to improved delivery of orders in backlog and lower demand comparable growth(2) in the first quarter.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, net cash provided by operating activities was $8 million, compared to $35 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, net cash used in investing activities was $8 million which includes landlord contributions of $1 million and company-funded capital expenditures(3) of $8 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in investing activities was $10 million, which included landlord contributions of $2 million and company-funded capital expenditures of $8 million.

________________________

(1) Comparable growth is a key performance indicator and is defined as the year-over-year percentage change of the dollar value of orders delivered (based on purchase price), net of the dollar value of returns (based on amount credited to client), from our comparable Showrooms and eCommerce, including through our direct-mail catalog.
(2) Demand comparable growth is a key performance indicator and is defined as the year-over-year percentage change of demand from our comparable Showrooms and eCommerce, including through our direct-mail catalog.
(3) Company-funded capital expenditures is defined as total net cash used in investing activities less landlord contributions.
(4) U.S. GAAP net income.
(5) We have not reconciled guidance for Adjusted EBITDA to the corresponding GAAP financial measure because we do not provide guidance for the various reconciling items. These items include, but are not limited to, future share-based compensation expense, income taxes, and interest expense. We are unable to provide guidance for these reconciling items because we cannot determine their probable significance, as certain items are outside of our control and cannot be reasonably predicted due to the fact that these items could vary significantly from period to period. Accordingly, reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measure is not available without unreasonable effort.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the results provided in accordance with GAAP, this press release and related tables include adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net revenue and adjusted net income, which present operating results on an adjusted basis.

We use non-GAAP measures to help assess the performance of our business, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans and make strategic decisions. In addition to our results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we believe that providing these non-GAAP financial measures is useful to our investors as they present an informative supplemental view of our results from period to period by removing the effect of non-recurring items. However, our inclusion of these adjusted measures should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or infrequent items or that the items for which we have made adjustments are unusual or infrequent or will not recur. These non-GAAP measures are not a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and can differ significantly from company to company. These measures should only be read together with the corresponding GAAP measures. Please refer to the reconciliations of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP below.
