(1) Net revenues (unaudited), as adjusted, is a non-GAAP financial measure. For a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure and more information regarding the Company’s use of non-GAAP financial measures, please see the section titled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Preliminary Key Operating Metrics.”

(2) Adjusted EBITDA margin is a non-GAAP financial measure. 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 Preliminary Key Operating Metrics.”

Financial Disclosure Advisory

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The select preliminary, unaudited results described in this press release are estimates only and are subject to revision until the Company reports its full financial and business results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021. These estimates are not a comprehensive statement of the Company’s financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, and actual results may differ materially from these estimates as a result of the completion of year-end accounting procedures and adjustments, including the performance of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, the completion of the external audit by the Company’s auditor, the preparation of the Company’s financial statements and the subsequent occurrence or identification of events prior to the formal issuance of the audited financial statements for fiscal year 2021. In addition, the preliminary, unaudited results described in this press release, including net revenues, should not be relied upon as an indicator of overall quarterly and year-end financial results, which depend on a variety of factors, including the cost of goods sold and operating expenses, among others.

24th Annual ICR Conference

The Company previously announced that it will be participating virtually in a fireside chat at the ICR conference on Monday, January 10, 2022, at 2:00 PM EST. The audio portion of the fireside chat will be webcast live and can be accessed on the Company’s investor relations website, www.ir.wearfigs.com, where it will remain available for approximately 90 days after the conference.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Preliminary 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 has also included “average order value,” “active customers” and “TTM net revenues per active customer,” which are key operational and business metrics that are important to understanding Company performance. The Company calculates “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 calculates “active customers” as unique customer accounts that have made at least one purchase in the preceding 12-month period. The Company calculates “TTM net revenues per active customer” as the sum of the total net revenues in the preceding 12-month period divided by the current period “active customers.”

Active customers as of December 31, 2021 (preliminary) and 2020, respectively, and average order value for the three months and year ended December 31, 2021 (preliminary) and 2020, respectively, are presented in the following tables:

The Company uses “net revenues, 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 calculates “net revenues, as adjusted” as net revenues, adjusted to exclude non-recurring related party sales. 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.
