During the three months ended March 31, 2026, impairment and other related charges decreased by $23 million, or 100.0%, compared to the same period in 2025. The decrease is due to impairment charges recognized in the prior year related to the Germany Restructuring and weakened macroeconomic conditions in connection with the German operations.

Current report
Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin
Current report
We define Adjusted Gross Profit as gross profit plus equity-based compensation and related taxes included in cost of goods sold. Gross profit is defined as net revenue minus cost of goods sold. Gross margin is defined as gross profit as a percentage of net revenue for the same period. Adjusted Gross Margin is defined as Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of net revenue for the same period.
Current report
We disclose Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin because we believe these measures are important indicators of our business performance. They provide visibility into our underlying gross profitability by excluding the impact of non-cash equity-based compensation expense and related taxes, which can vary meaningfully from period to period. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and the Board.
Current report
Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin, however, have limitations as analytical tools because they omit certain costs included in cost of goods sold and therefore do not reflect all expenses that impact gross profit under GAAP. Further, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate these non-GAAP measures differently. Accordingly, you should not consider Adjusted Gross Profit or Adjusted Gross Margin in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because of these limitations, these metrics should be considered alongside other financial performance measures, including gross profit, cost of goods sold, and our other GAAP results.
Current report
The following table provides a reconciliation of gross profit to Adjusted Gross Profit:
Current report
Contribution Profit and Contribution Margin
Current report
We define Contribution Profit as Adjusted Gross Profit less customer service and merchant fees and less advertising expense, plus equity-based compensation and related taxes included in customer service and merchant fees. Contribution Margin is defined as Contribution Profit as a percentage of net revenue for the same period.
Current report
We use Contribution Profit and Contribution Margin to evaluate our operating performance and trends. We believe these measures are useful indicators of the economic impact of orders fulfilled through our omni-channel platform because they take into account the direct expenses associated with generating and servicing customer demand. These measures provide additional visibility into unit-level performance by isolating key cost drivers, including customer service and merchant fees, and advertising. Accordingly, we believe Contribution Profit and Contribution Margin provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and the Board.
Current report
However, Contribution Profit and Contribution Margin have important limitations as analytical tools. They omit various expenses that impact our results under GAAP, and they are not intended to represent measures of overall company profitability or to imply that our business is profitable at the company level. Other companies, including those in our industry, may calculate Contribution Profit and similarly titled measures differently. Accordingly, you should not consider Contribution Profit or Contribution Margin in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because of these limitations, these metrics should be evaluated alongside other financial performance measures, including gross profit and our other GAAP results.

As of September 30, 2025, we had 21 million active customers and during the three months ended September 30, 2025, 80.1% of orders came from repeat buyers. The increased sales represents our ongoing execution of business initiatives amid persistent macroeconomic pressures on consumers. We also continued to manage our advertising spend according to a return on investment-oriented approach that carefully tracks and monitors the results of advertising campaigns as we seek to maintain appropriate return targets.

As disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, our business is subject to risks related to trade policy, including new or increased tariffs by the United States (“U.S.”) and/or other foreign governments. Starting in the first quarter of 2025, the U.S. government announced additional tariffs on goods imported into the U.S. from numerous countries, including the home goods category, and starting in the fourth quarter of 2025, the U.S. government began imposing additional tariffs applicable to certain home goods, which as of the date of this report are scheduled to increase in January 2026. Multiple nations have announced tariffs and other actions in response. While some trade deals have been reached and trade negotiations are ongoing, overall the global trade environment remains fluid and highly uncertain. Despite this uncertainty, we believe the structural characteristics of our retail platform position us to capture incremental market share within a category that is largely unbranded and highly substitutable. We have and will continue to partner with our suppliers to help them strategize and deliver value for our customers.

Further, we continue to closely monitor additional macroeconomic conditions, including, but not limited to, general economic instability, changes in tax laws or regulations or other governmental actions or policies, sustained higher interest rates and inflationary pressures, on our business, results of operations and financial results. For example, on July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act was signed into law, which contains a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses. We continue to evaluate the full effects on the full year income tax provision and cash tax position, but the legislation is not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements. Nevertheless, these types of developments have and may continue to negatively impact global economic activity and consumer behavior, which have and may continue to adversely affect our business and our results of operations. As our customers react to these global economic conditions, we may take precautionary measures to limit or delay expenditures and preserve capital and liquidity.

(3) Orders delivered represent the total orders delivered in any period, inclusive of orders that may eventually be returned. As we ship a large volume of packages through multiple carriers, actual delivery dates may not always be available, and as such we estimate delivery dates based on historical data. We recognize net revenue when an order is delivered, and therefore orders delivered, together with average order value, is an indicator of the net revenue we expect to recognize in a given period. We view orders delivered as a key indicator of our growth.

Previous wording
We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents and investments, cash generated from operations and the borrowing availability under our Revolver will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for at least the foreseeable future including planned capital expenditures, contractual obligations and other such requirements. However, our liquidity assumptions may prove to be incorrect, and we could exhaust our available financial resources sooner than we currently expect. We may elect to raise additional funds at any time through equity, equity-linked or debt financing arrangements. Further, we have and may from time to time seek to retire, restructure, repurchase or redeem, or otherwise mitigate the equity dilution associated with our outstanding convertible debt through cash purchases, stock buybacks of some or all of the shares underlying convertible notes and/or exchanges for equity or debt in open-market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases, exchanges or liability management exercises, if any, will be upon such terms and at such prices and sizes as we may determine, and will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of available funds will depend on many factors, including those described herein and in our other filings with the SEC, including those set forth in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors in our Annual Report on 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. In addition, macroeconomic events have caused disruption in the capital markets, including increased inflation and interest rates, which could make obtaining financing more difficult and/or expensive. As a consequence, we may not be able to secure additional financing to meet our operating requirements or strategic goals on acceptable terms, in a timely manner, or at all. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity, equity-linked or debt financing arrangements, those securities and instruments may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to the rights of our common stock, and the holders of our equity securities may experience dilution. We will continue to monitor our liquidity during this time of historic disruption and volatility in the global capital markets.

On July 1, 2025, the 2025 Notes became freely convertible and the holders of the 2025 Notes could have converted all or a portion of their 2025 Notes at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date.

Previous wording
During the three months ended September 30, 2025, there were no conversions of the Convertible Notes. Whether any of the Convertible Notes will be convertible in future quarters will depend on the satisfaction of the applicable last reported sales price condition or another conversion condition in the future. If one or more holders elect to convert their Convertible Notes at a time when any such Convertible Notes are convertible, unless we elect to satisfy our conversion obligation by delivering solely shares of our Class A common stock (other than paying cash in lieu of delivering any fractional share), we would be required to settle a portion or all of our conversion obligation through the payment of cash, which could adversely affect our liquidity.

The credit agreement and indentures governing our convertible notes contain restrictions and covenants that may limit our operating flexibility. Specifically, the Revolver contains affirmative and negative covenants customarily applicable to senior secured credit facilities, including covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict our ability, subject to negotiated exceptions, to incur additional indebtedness and additional liens on our assets, engage in mergers or acquisitions or dispose of assets, pay dividends or make other distributions, voluntarily prepay other indebtedness, enter into transactions with affiliated persons, make investments, or change the nature of our businesses. The Revolver also requires us to maintain certain levels of performance in order to maintain our access to the Revolver. For instance, we are required to maintain a Consolidated Senior Secured Debt to Consolidated EBITDA Ratio (as defined in the credit agreement governing the Revolver) of 4.0 to 1.0, subject to a 0.5 step-up following certain permitted acquisitions. For information regarding our credit agreement and debt agreements, see Note 4, Debt and Other Financing, included in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements, in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Note 6, Debt and Other Financing, included in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
