"This was an important quarter for Purple Innovation, marked by the largest product and brand refresh in the company's history as we introduced 11 all-new, innovative products supported by a more premium brand position," said Chief Executive Officer Rob DeMartini. "This new 'Path to Premium Sleep' strategy, while not immediately evident in our topline results due to the mid-quarter timing of the launch and ongoing industry-wide pressures, demonstrated several positive indications to reinforce that we have set the right course for the next stage of growth for the Company. June, the first full month with our new product in-market, was the strongest month of 2023 with a revenue run rate up 18% to the first 5 months of the year, and we've seen that momentum continue into the third quarter. This budding momentum, along with the continued rollout of our new product with additional wholesale partners in the coming months, positions us to deliver improved results in the second half of the year."

Second Quarter 2023 Review

Second quarter 2023 net revenue decreased 16.1% to $120.9 million, compared to $144.1 million in the second quarter of 2022. This decrease was primarily due to softening demand for home-related products, inflationary pressure on discretionary consumer spending, forward buying of consumers in recent years, industry-standard price reductions on the sell-in of new mattress and adjustable base floor models to wholesale partners, and increased discounting of discontinued models sold through our DTC channels. By channel, wholesale revenue decreased 15.5% and DTC revenue decreased 16.6%. DTC net revenues declined due to lower e-commerce revenue partially offset by growth in Purple retail showroom revenue driven by the addition of 16 showrooms over the previous 12 months.

Gross margin for the second quarter 2023 decreased to 31.8% compared to 33.9% in the year ago period. Excluding discounts and one-time costs associated with the product transition, gross margin in the current year quarter was 38.6%. These discounts and costs include industry standard price reductions on the sell-in of new mattress floor models to wholesale partners coupled with increased discounting of discontinued models sold through our DTC channels as we transitioned to our new premium and luxury product lineups. The 470-basis point improvement year-over-year was driven by the ongoing realization of efficiency and cost saving initiatives put in place during the first half of 2022.

Operating expenses were $75.7 million, or 62.7% of net revenue for the second quarter of 2023 compared to $60.9 million, or 42.3% of net revenue in the year ago period.  This increase in operating expenses was largely driven by an increase in legal and professional fees of $8.2 million incurred by the Special Committee, including a $4.0 million accrual made in the second quarter of 2023 for the settlement amount owed to Coliseum.  Marketing and sales expenses were higher in the second quarter as management increased advertising spend to align with the launch of our new premium and luxury product lineup in May 2023.

Operating loss was $(37.3) million for the second quarter 2023 compared to $(12.1) million in the prior year period.

Net loss attributable to Purple Innovation, Inc. was $(37.5) million for the second quarter 2023 compared to $(8.3) million in the year ago period. As previously disclosed, the Company determined that its outstanding warrants should be accounted for as liabilities and recorded at fair value on the date of the transaction and subsequently re-measured to fair value at each reporting date. For the three months ending June 30, 2023, there was no change in the fair value of warrant liabilities, while for the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized a non-cash gain of $0.4 million associated with the change in fair value of warrant liabilities. As of June 30, 2023, all outstanding warrants have expired.

Adjusted net loss, which excludes adjustments for certain non-cash items and other items the Company does not consider in the evaluation of ongoing operational performance, including losses associated with the extinguishment of debt and the expenses incurred by the Board's Special Committee, was $(21.1) million, or $(0.20) per diluted share, compared to $(8.8) million, or $(0.11) per diluted share in the prior year period. Adjusted net income has also been adjusted to reflect an estimated effective income tax rate of 25.9% for the current year period and 31.7% for the comparable prior year period.

EBITDA for the second quarter 2023 was $(31.3) million compared to $(8.0) million in the second quarter 2022. Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes the expenses of the Board's Special Committee, legal fees, non-cash stock-based compensation, severance and showroom opening costs, was $(18.5) million compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $(0.3) million in the prior year period.

Balance Sheet

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $26.9 million compared to $41.8 million as of December 31, 2022. The decrease was driven primarily by cash used in operations of $38.1 million, capital expenditures of $5.8 million primarily related to additional investments made in our manufacturing facilities and the repayment of the full $24.7 million outstanding on the term loan. This was partially offset by cash provided from net proceeds of $57.0 million received from the public offering completed in February 2023. Inventories as of June 30, 2023 totaled $78.4 million compared with $73.2 million as of December 31, 2022.

On August 7, 2023, the Company closed on a new debt facility consisting of a $25 million term loan with Callodine Commercial Finance and an ABL credit agreement led by Bank of Montreal that provides up to $50 million in financing. This facility, which replaces Purple's prior credit agreement, is less restrictive, including no minimum EBITDA requirement, allowing for more flexibility to invest in accelerating growth initiatives and increasing market share.

2023 Outlook

Based on results for the first half of 2023 and a more cautious view of industry demand for the remainder of the year, the Company is adjusting its outlook.  It now expects net revenue to be in the range of $560 to $590 million and adjusted EBITDA between $(10) million and breakeven.

Forward Looking Statements

Certain statements made in this release that are not historical facts are "forward looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements include but are not limited to statements relating to our expected continuing expansion of market share from investment in expanded product lines, innovation and showrooms; our ability to achieve profitability; expected improvements in performance quarter-over-quarter and growth in the second half of the year; expected improvement in margin rates; our ability to successfully execute on improvement strategies, including right-sizing our cost structure and improving supply chain and manufacturing efficiency, and related impacts on our operating results; expected improvements in our operating performance, including wholesale relationships; demand for our products; expectations regarding consumer behavior; the timing and impact of the introduction of new product lines; the adequacy of our cash other capital resources; and expected financial and operating results for the second quarter or full year 2023, including net revenue and Adjusted EBITDA. Statements based on historical data are not intended and should not be understood to indicate the Company's expectations regarding future events. Forward-looking statements provide current expectations or forecasts of future events or determinations. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, conditions or results, and involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside the Company's control, that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could influence the realization of forward-looking statements include, among others: changes in economic, financial and end-market conditions in the markets in which we operate; fluctuations in raw material prices and cost of labor; the financial condition of our customers and suppliers; competitive pressures, including the need for technology improvement, successful new product development and introduction; changes in consumer demand, including pullbacks in consumer spending; disruptions to our manufacturing processes; and the risk factors outlined in the "Risk Factors" section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 22, 2023 as amended on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on May 1, 2023, and in our other filings made with the SEC. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and adjusted net income per diluted share are non-GAAP financial measures that remove the impact of certain non-cash and non-recurring costs. Adjusted gross margin is a financial measure that removes the impact of reduced revenues relating to the sales of floor model mattresses and adjustable bases and increased one-time costs associated with the transition to our new Premium and Luxe product lineups.  Management believes that the use of such non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with additional useful information with respect to the impact of various adjustments, which we view as a better measure of our operating performance. Refer to the attached tables for the reconciliation of such non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measure.

With respect to the Company's Adjusted EBITDA outlook for the second quarter and full year 2023, a quantitative reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP information cannot be provided without unreasonable effort because of the inherent difficulty of accurately forecasting the occurrence and financial impact of the various adjusting items necessary for such reconciliation that have not yet occurred, are out of our control, or cannot be reasonably predicted, including but not limited to warrant liabilities and stock based compensation. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to assess the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could have a material impact on its future GAAP financial results.

PURPLE INNOVATION, INC.
RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP MEASURES
(In thousands)

Management believes that the use of the following non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with additional useful information with respect to the impact of various adjustments, which we view as a better measure of our operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share and adjusted gross profit. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP measures differently than we do. These non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for our financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliation of GAAP Net Income (Loss) to Non-GAAP EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

A reconciliation of GAAP net income (loss) to the non-GAAP measures of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA is provided below. EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, other (income) expense, net, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA excluding costs incurred due to stock-based compensation expense, debt extinguishment, changes in the fair value of the warrant liability, nonrecurring legal fees, Board special committee costs, executive interim and search costs, severance costs, vendor separation fee, showroom opening costs, new production facility start-up costs and COVID-19 related expenses. We believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide additional useful information with respect to the impact of various adjustments and provide meaningful measures of our operating performance.

Reconciliation of GAAP Net Income to non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income per Diluted Share

Our presentation of adjusted net income assumes that all net income is attributable to Purple Innovation, Inc. (i.e. there is no allocation of net income or loss to noncontrolling interests), which assumes the full exchange at the beginning of the period of all outstanding Paired Securities for shares of Class A common stock of Purple Innovation, Inc., adjusted for certain nonrecurring items that we do not believe directly reflect our core operations. Adjusted net income per share, diluted, is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by the total shares of Class A common stock outstanding plus any dilutive warrants, options and restricted stock as calculated in accordance with GAAP and assuming the full exchange of all outstanding Paired Securities as of the beginning of each period presented. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share, are supplemental measures of operating performance that do not represent, and should not be considered, alternatives to net income and earnings per share, as calculated in accordance with GAAP. We believe adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share, supplement GAAP measures and enable us to more effectively evaluate our performance period-over-period. A reconciliation of net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to adjusted net income and the computation of adjusted net income per diluted share, are set forth below:

Reconciliation of GAAP Gross Margin to Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin

A reconciliation of GAAP gross margin to the non-GAAP adjusted gross margin is provided below. Adjusted gross margin represents gross margin removing the impact in the second quarter 2023 of industry-standard price reductions on the sell-in of new mattress and base floor models to wholesale partners, and increased discounting of discontinued models sold through our wholesale and DTC channels. In addition, adjusted gross margin excludes certain one-time costs associated with the new product transition. There was no new product transition activity in the second quarter 2022.   We believe adjusted gross margin provides additional useful information with respect to the impact of the new model transition and provides meaningful measures of our operating performance.
