Revolve Group, Inc.

Previous wording

Our business and operating results are subject to macroeconomic conditions and trends and their direct and indirect impacts on consumer discretionary spending in the markets in which we operate. Some of the factors and events that have negatively influenced consumer spending, and may do so in the future, include inflationary pressures, fluctuating interest rates and credit availability, increased tariffs and global trade instability, public health crises, high levels of unemployment, high consumer debt levels, reductions in net worth, declines in asset values and related market uncertainty, reductions in home values, home foreclosures, resumption of student loan payments, increases in mortgage rates and rents, adverse developments affecting the financial services industry, government shutdowns, labor strikes, fears of recession, fluctuating currency exchange rates, fluctuating fuel and other energy costs, fluctuating commodity prices, wars and conflicts in Ukraine/Russia, Israel/Gaza and the Middle East, other geopolitical tensions, negative consumer sentiment toward U.S.-made products in our international markets, general uncertainty regarding the overall future political and economic environment, and social unrest. Economic conditions in certain regions may also be affected by natural disasters, such as earthquakes, hurricanes, tropical storms and wildfires. Consumer purchases of discretionary items, including the merchandise that we offer, generally decline during periods of economic uncertainty when disposable income is reduced or when there is a reduction in consumer confidence.

The U.S. government has in the past made, and may in the future make, significant changes in U.S. trade policy and has taken certain actions that could negatively impact our business, including imposing tariffs on certain goods we import into the United States.

Previous wording

Since May 2025, the U.S. government has imposed incremental tariffs of 30% on most goods imported from China, from which we source a significant portion of our products, subject to certain exceptions. This tariff rate is comprised of a 20% fentanyl-related tariff rate imposed under the IEEPA, since March 2025, and a temporarily reduced 10% reciprocal tariff imposed under IEEPA since May 2025. When factoring in the pre-existing Section 301 tariffs of 7.5% on products we import, these policies combine for an additional 37.5% tariff rate on goods we import from China. These rates are subject to changes, particularly in light of ongoing bilateral trade negotiations between the United States and China, and at various points in 2025, this total tariff rate on goods imported from China reached 152.5%. These tariffs are in addition to the baseline HTS tariffs, which vary by product. In addition, U.S. tariffs on goods imported from other countries from which we source products included an incremental reciprocal tariff of 10% imposed since April 2025. Since August 7, 2025, higher reciprocal tariff rates for many U.S. trading partners, including countries such as Japan, Turkey, Indonesia and India, have been imposed pursuant to additional executive orders modifying the reciprocal tariff rates for certain countries. Products of India have also been targeted since August 2025 with an additional 25% tariff (on top of baseline HTS, reciprocal and other applicable duties) due to India’s import of crude oil from Russia. Heightened tariffs, particularly on Chinese goods, directly impact our owned brand products and, to a lesser extent, a limited number of third-party branded products for which we are the importer of record. In addition, we face various indirect exposures to the effects of heightened tariffs from other third-party brands. If U.S. tariffs on China or other countries from which we source products are sustained at heightened levels or are increased further, it will increase our cost of sales and may also increase the price of our products. Raising prices of our products could adversely impact customer demand. In addition, heightened tariffs may adversely impact our ability to acquire products on acceptable terms and may also adversely impact global logistics, which may result in our inability to purchase sufficient inventory to meet customer demand and in turn materially and adversely impact our net sales. Furthermore, these and future changes in trade policy may adversely impact the macroeconomic environment, consumer sentiment and international demand if consumers outside of the United States boycott U.S. retailers. If we are not able to adjust our inventory levels and our inventory assortment in response to reduced customer demand, our gross margin may be adversely impacted.

We source a significant portion of our products, directly or indirectly, from China. The imposition of significant tariffs on imports from China or other countries that we source from, if sustained at heightened levels, may result in our inability to cost-effectively source products.

Previous wording

Any failure to manage owned brand expansion or accurately forecast demand for owned brands could adversely affect growth, margins and inventory levels. In addition, our ability to meet customer demand may be negatively impacted by a shortage in inventory or appropriate assortment due to reduced inventory purchases or disruptions in the supply chain. Historically, a majority of our owned brand products and a substantial portion of the products we source from third parties have been manufactured in China. Various factors and events outside of our control impact our supply chain and may delay or prevent our manufacturing and may also increase the cost to manufacture or transport product that is sourced in China or other countries. In addition, the worsening of U.S. relations with China or other countries, increased tariffs and global trade instability could also negatively impact our supply chain and cost to source from China and other countries. While we seek to further diversify our supply chain and sourcing, we may not be able to diversify in a cost-effective manner, or at all, for example as a result of further imposition of tariffs, which may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. In addition, the supply chain worldwide has in the past been, and may in the future be, negatively impacted by events such as wars and geopolitical tensions, tariffs, public health crises, labor shortages and other factors, and diversification of the supply chain and sourcing therefore may not yield the targeted benefits.

Over the course of 2024, we offered over 1,000 emerging and established brands through REVOLVE, including 29 owned brands, and over 500 brands through FWRD. Our ability to identify new brands and maintain and enhance our relationships with our existing brands is critical to expanding our base of customers and retaining our existing customers. Third-party brands, particularly in the luxury sector, are increasingly limiting wholesale distribution, shifting to selling directly to the consumer. In 2022, we launched a handbag buyback program on FWRD, extending the life cycle of luxury handbags sold on FWRD. If our third-party brand partners perceive this program negatively, our relationships may be damaged and our ability to obtain future products from our brand partners may be limited. Furthermore, the impact of macroeconomic factors, such as inflation and supply chain challenges, on the ecosystem of emerging and established brands is unpredictable. If we are unable to maintain an assortment of brands and styles that resonates with our customer, our operating results and brand could be negatively impacted.

A significant portion of our customers’ experience depends on third parties outside of our control, including vendors, suppliers and logistics providers such as UPS, FedEx and DHL. If these third parties do not meet our or our customers’ expectations, our business may suffer irreparable damage. In addition, macroeconomic events have negatively impacted and may continue to impact the global supply chain. If our third-party service providers are negatively impacted and they are not able to meet our or our customers’ expectations or if rates increase, our operating results and our brand may be negatively impacted. In addition, maintaining and enhancing relationships with third-party brands may require us to make substantial investments and these investments may not be successful. Also, if we fail to promote and maintain our brands, or if we incur excessive expenses in this effort, our business, operating results and financial condition may be materially adversely affected. We anticipate that, as our market becomes increasingly competitive, maintaining and enhancing our brands may become increasingly difficult and expensive. Maintaining and enhancing our brands will depend largely on our ability to provide high quality products to our customers and a reliable, trustworthy and profitable sales channel to our vendors, which we may not do successfully.

TikTok to continue to operate. The failure by us, our employees, our network of social media influencers, our sponsors or third parties acting at our direction to abide by applicable laws and regulations in the use of social media platforms or otherwise, including intellectual property and consumer protection laws as well as tax reporting and compliance requirements, could subject us to regulatory investigations, class action lawsuits, liability, taxes, fines or other penalties and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

Current wording

Furthermore, as laws and regulations and public opinion rapidly evolve to govern the use of social media platforms, our ability to use certain platforms, including TikTok in particular, as marketing tools may become limited, restricted or more expensive or complicated, which could adversely impact our business and operating results. For example, on April 24, 2024, President Biden signed into law legislation that would have required TikTok’s parent company to divest TikTok or face a ban in the United States. Subsequent executive actions delayed the effectiveness of such restrictions. After months of negotiations, in January 2026, a deal was seemingly struck between the Trump Administration and TikTok that would allow TikTok to continue to operate in the United States. The failure by us, our employees, our network of social media influencers, our sponsors or third parties acting at our direction to abide by applicable laws and regulations in the use of social media platforms or otherwise, including intellectual property and consumer protection laws as well as tax reporting and compliance requirements, could subject us to regulatory investigations, class action lawsuits, liability, taxes, fines or other penalties and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

We establish and maintain relationships with both celebrity endorsers and design, celebrity and brand collaborators in order to develop, evaluate and promote our products as well as strengthen our brand. In a competitive environment, the costs associated with the establishment and retention of these relationships may increase and there can be no assurance that our investments and efforts will ultimately result in new customers or increased sales to existing customers. If we are unable to maintain current associations or establish new associations in the future, this could adversely affect our brand visibility and strength and result in a negative impact to our financial results. In addition, any repeated or sustained negative shifts in the public or industry perception of any of our celebrity endorsers or collaborators could also seriously harm our brand image with customers and, as a result, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

If we are unable to cost-effectively expand our presence through brick-and-mortar stores, our operating results and reputation could be materially adversely impacted. Our marketing initiatives have and may continue to become increasingly expensive as competition increases and generating a meaningful return on those initiatives may be difficult. If our marketing efforts are not successful in promoting awareness of our brands and products, driving customer engagement or attracting new customers, or if we are not able to cost-effectively manage our marketing expenses, our operating results will be adversely affected.

We obtain a significant amount of traffic via social networking websites or other channels used by our current and prospective customers. As eCommerce and social networking continue to rapidly evolve, we must continue to establish relationships with these channels and may be unable to develop or maintain these relationships on acceptable terms. We also use paid and non-paid advertising. We acquire and retain customers through paid search and product listing ads, affiliate marketing, paid social media marketing, retargeting, personalized email and SMS marketing and mobile “push” communications through our mobile apps. The recent introduction of AI and LLMs within search and other marketing channels may change consumer search behavior and our ability to cost effectively acquire and retain customers. For example, in March 2025, Google introduced an experimental AI mode within its search platform and other platforms have or may in the future launch similar functionality. If we are unable to adapt to this and similar changes, our net sales growth and profitability may be adversely affected. If we are unable to cost-effectively drive traffic to our sites, our ability to acquire new customers and our financial condition would suffer.

We may not be able to pass increased prices on to customers, which could adversely affect our operating results. As a result of supply chain challenges caused by a number of factors and events, such as public health crises, wars and geopolitical tensions in Ukraine/Russia, Israel/Gaza and the Middle East, trade wars with China and other countries, port closures, extreme weather events, strikes and labor shortages, we have in the past experienced, and may in the future experience, delays in the manufacturing and delivery of goods to us. In the event of an extended and significant disruption in the supply of the fabrics or raw materials used in the manufacture of the merchandise we offer, we and the vendors that we work with might not be able to locate alternative suppliers of materials of comparable quality at the right time and at an acceptable price.

As part of our long-term growth plans, we may continue to acquire, invest in or partner with additional businesses, assets and technologies, and enter into commercial collaborations, which we believe could further complement or expand our business. Such transactions may divert management’s time and focus from operating our business, whether or not they are ultimately completed, and they also may require us to spend a substantial portion of our available cash, incur debt or other liabilities, amortize expenses related to intangible assets or incur write-offs of goodwill or other assets. In addition, integrating acquired businesses or technologies is risky. Completed and future transactions may result in unforeseen operational difficulties and expenditures associated with:

As part of our long-term growth plans, we have and may continue to acquire, invest in or partner with additional businesses, assets and technologies, and enter into commercial collaborations, which we believe could further complement or expand our business. Entry into certain transactions with foreign entities may be subject to government regulations, including review related to foreign direct investment by U.S. or foreign government entities. If a transaction with a foreign entity was subject to regulatory review, such regulatory review might limit our ability to enter into the desired strategic alliance and thus our ability to carry out our long-term business strategy. Such transactions may divert management’s time and focus from operating our business, whether or not they are ultimately completed, and they also may require us to spend a substantial portion of our available cash, incur debt or other liabilities, amortize expenses related to intangible assets or incur write-offs of goodwill or other assets.

Further, our tax liability, after-tax profitability and effective tax rate in a given financial statement period may be materially impacted by changes in tax laws, including legislation implementing changes in taxation of international business activities, changes in the mix and level of earnings by taxing jurisdictions or changes to existing accounting rules or regulations. For example, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, among other things, imposed a one percent excise tax on certain stock repurchases by public companies. The Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development, or OECD proposed implementing a global minimum tax of fifteen percent, which has been adopted by many jurisdictions, including the UK, and is being considered by others for implementation. Although these rules are not currently applicable to us, we operate in participating countries that have implemented or are expected to implement these rules. On June 28, 2025, however, the G7 released a joint Statement on Global Minimum Tax, announcing an understanding regarding a proposed “side-by-side” solution that would exempt U.S. multinational businesses from some of the Pillar Two rules (including the 15% global minimum tax). The OECD released a draft proposal, dated August 13, 2025, to exclude U.S. multinational companies from certain minimum tax enforcement measures. We continue to evaluate the impact of these tax developments and those under other OECD and non-U.S. rules as new guidance and regulations are published and become applicable. Further, legislation commonly known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act enacted in July 2025 modifies certain tax provisions that could impact our tax liability and financial condition. There are numerous other factors that could affect our effective tax rate, including, among others, intercompany transactions, losses incurred in jurisdictions for which we are not able to realize the related tax benefits, exercises of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units, and entry into new businesses and geographies. Fluctuations in our tax obligations and effective tax rate could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.

Operating and doing business in China and using Chinese-owned social media platforms as tools for marketing, messaging and transacting with our customers in China exposes us to political, legal and economic risks. In particular, the political, legal and economic climate in China, both nationally and regionally, and China’s relationship with the United States, is fluid and unpredictable. Our ability to operate and do business in China and use Chinese-owned social media platforms may be adversely affected by changes in U.S. and Chinese laws and regulations such as those related to, among other things, taxation, import and export tariffs, custom duties, social media, environmental regulations, land use rights, intellectual property, currency controls, network security, employee benefits, hygiene supervision and other matters. In addition, we may not obtain or retain the requisite legal permits to continue to operate in China and costs or operational limitations may be imposed in connection with obtaining and complying with such permits. In addition, Chinese trade regulations are in a state of flux and we may become subject to other forms of taxation, tariffs and duties in China. Furthermore, the third parties we rely on in China may disclose our confidential information or intellectual property to competitors or third parties, which could result in the illegal distribution and sale of counterfeit versions of our products. If any of these events occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Federal, state and international governmental authorities continue to evaluate the privacy implications inherent in the use of third-party “cookies” and other methods of online tracking for behavioral advertising and other purposes. The United States and foreign governments have enacted, have considered or are considering legislation or regulations that could significantly restrict the ability of companies and individuals to engage in these activities, such as by regulating the level of consumer notice and consent required before a company can employ cookies or other electronic tracking tools or the use of data gathered with such tools. Additionally, some providers of consumer devices and web browsers have implemented, or announced plans to implement, means to make it easier for Internet users to prevent the placement of cookies or to block other tracking technologies, which could if widely adopted result in the use of third-party cookies and other methods of online tracking becoming significantly less effective. Regulation of the use of these cookies and other online tracking and advertising practices, or a loss in our ability to make effective use of services that employ such technologies, could increase our costs of operations and limit our ability to track trends, optimize our product assortment or acquire new customers on cost-effective terms and consequently, materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. For example, Apple has imposed requirements for consumer disclosures regarding privacy practices, and has implemented an application tracking transparency framework that requires opt-in consent for certain types of tracking. This transparency framework was launched in April 2021. This transparency framework has and may continue to negatively impact the effectiveness of our advertising practices. In June 2023, Apple announced new SDK privacy controls that it integrated into iOS 17, which was released in September 2023, including new protections designed to limit tracking or identification of user devices. Additionally, Apple Inc. recently updated Apple Mail, including automated inbox categorization, sender-level grouping, and AI-generated email previews. These changes may reduce the visibility and engagement rates of our email communications and may adversely impact our ability to reach customers effectively through the email channel. In February 2022, Google announced its Privacy Sandbox initiative for Android, a multi-year effort expected to restrict tracking activity and limit advertisers’ ability to collect app and user data across Android devices. Google began rolling out the Privacy Sandbox on January 4, 2024, and in July 2024, announced its change from a previously-announced plan to phase out third-party cookies in the second half of 2024.

The UK has implemented legislation similar to the GDPR, including the UK Data Protection Act and legislation similar to the GDPR referred to as the UK GDPR, which provides for fines of up to the greater of 17.5 million British Pounds or 4% of organizational worldwide turnover, whichever is higher. Additionally, the relationship between the UK and the EU in relation to certain aspects of data protection law remains unclear following the UK’s exit from the EU, including with respect to data transfers between EU member states and the UK. On June 28, 2021, the European Commission announced a decision of “adequacy” concluding that the UK ensures an equivalent level of data protection to the GDPR, which generally permits continued personal data flows from the EEA to the UK. The UK enacted the UK Data (Use and Access) Act 2025, or DUAA, on June 19, 2025, which made targeted amendments to the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act. The European Commission has proposed to renew the UK’s adequacy decision after assessing the DUAA, but additional procedural steps remain, causing some uncertainty to remain regarding the UK’s adequacy determination. We cannot fully predict how the Data Protection Act, the UK GDPR, and other UK data protection laws or regulations may develop in the medium to longer term nor the effects of divergent laws and guidance regarding how data transfers to and from the UK will be regulated. Further, the GDPR and other similar regulations require companies to give specific types of notice and in some cases seek consent from consumers and other data subjects before collecting or using their data for certain purposes, including some marketing activities. Further, data protection authorities in the EU increasingly are focused on the use of online analytics and tracking tools, with some contending that the use of these tools may violate EU data protection laws. Interpretation of the ePrivacy Directive’s requirements regarding the use of cookies and similar technologies may lead to regulators imposing measures that could impact our use of such technologies or lead to significant penalties for actual or alleged non-compliance. On January 13, 2022, the Austrian data protection authority published a decision ruling that the collection of personal data and transfer to the United States through Google Analytics and other analytics and tracking tools used by website operators violates the GDPR. On February 10, 2022, the French data protection authority issued a press release announcing that the French data protection authority had issued a similar decision. Other data protection authorities in the EU are increasingly focused on the use of online tracking tools and have indicated that they plan to issue similar rulings. We may find it necessary or appropriate to develop or use alternative methods to replace the functionality of cookies.

In China, for example, the Personal Information Protection Law, or PIPL, was adopted on August 20, 2021 and went into effect on November 1, 2021. The PIPL shares similarities with the GDPR, including extraterritorial application, data minimization, data localization and purpose limitation requirements, as well as obligations to provide certain notices and rights to citizens of China. The PIPL allows for fines of up to 50 million renminbi, or 5% of a covered company’s revenue in the prior year. More generally, many of these foreign laws and regulations may require consent from consumers for the use of data for various purposes, including marketing, which may reduce our ability to market our products. There is no harmonized approach to these laws and regulations globally. Consequently, international activities and operations increase our risk of non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and we would increase our risk of non-compliance with applicable foreign data protection laws by expanding internationally.
