"Our third quarter top-line performance demonstrates that our Path to Premium Sleep strategy is gaining traction," said Chief Executive Officer Rob DeMartini. "Since launching our innovative new mattresses and enhanced brand campaign in May and converting the majority of our retail partner floor sets to our new premium and luxury collections over the past several months, we've seen a steady improvement in demand for Purple mattresses despite ongoing industry softness. We are encouraged by the continued sequential acceleration in revenue and we are focused on driving further improvement across each of our distribution channels during the fourth quarter and into 2024. While market conditions and one-time costs associated with our new product transition have pressured our bottom line this year, we remain confident that we are well positioned to continue taking market share and deliver sustained, profitable growth over the long-term."

Third Quarter 2023 Review

Third quarter 2023 net revenue decreased 2.0% to $140.0 million from $142.9 million in the third quarter of 2022. This decrease was driven by soft demand for home related-products in the current operating environment, nearly fully offset by the positive response to the Company's new product lineup including its higher priced Premium and Luxe collections, along with increased advertising spend to support the new product launch and enhanced brand positioning. By channel, wholesale revenue increased 2.6% and DTC revenue declined 5.2%. DTC net revenues declined due to lower e-commerce revenue partially offset by growth in Purple retail showroom revenue driven by the addition of 5 showrooms over the previous 12 months.

Gross margin for the third quarter 2023 decreased to 33.8% compared to 41.3% in the year ago period. Adjusted gross margin, which excludes discounts and one-time costs associated with the product transition, was 37.1% in the current year quarter. 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 the Company's DTC channels associated with the transition to the new premium and luxury product lineups. In addition, the Company experienced increased labor and airfreight costs associated with the new product launch. Net of these transitional items, gross margins were impacted by the wrap-around on manufacturing efficiencies from last year, when we had a higher amount of inventory production, and a channel mix shift in revenue to wholesale which carries a lower average selling price than DTC channel sales. Wholesale revenues comprised approximately 43% of net revenue for the quarter, compared with approximately 41% in the same quarter last year.

Operating expenses were $79.9 million, or 57.1% of net revenue for the third quarter of 2023 compared to $58.1 million, or 40.7% of net revenue in the year ago period.  This increase in operating expenses was largely driven by a $12.6 million increase in advertising expenses to support the new product launch including a new brand campaign that highlights Purple's premium positioning and showcases the benefits of its proprietary sleep technology and a $6.9 million loss on the impairment of goodwill.   

Operating loss was $(32.6) million for the third quarter 2023 compared to operating income of $0.9 million in the prior year period.

Net loss attributable to Purple Innovation, Inc. was $(36.0) million for the third quarter 2023 compared to net income of $2.0 million in the year ago period.  Adjusted net income, 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, impairment of goodwill, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, Board special committee fees, Acquisition expenses and gain on effective settlement in acquisition was $(19.4) million, or $(0.18) per diluted share, compared to $2.5 million, or $0.03 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 25.1% for the comparable prior year period.

EBITDA for the third quarter 2023 was $(29.7) million compared to $7.0 million in the third quarter 2022. Adjusted EBITDA was $(16.3) million compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $11.8 million in the prior year period.

Balance Sheet

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $26.6 million compared to $41.8 million as of December 31, 2022. The decrease was driven primarily by cash used in operations of $55.8 million and capital expenditures of $9.4 million primarily related to additional manufacturing facility investments and showroom expansion. This was partially offset by cash provided from net proceeds of $57.0 million received from the public offering completed in February 2023 and $25 million in proceeds from the new term loan put in place in August.  As of September 30, 2023, the Company had no amounts outstanding under its credit facility. As we continue to pursue our growth strategies, we will draw on our credit facility as needed and may also seek additional funding sources to further fund growth and strengthen liquidity, including new debt from subordinated lenders or equity capital.

Inventories as of September 30, 2023, totaled $72.1 million compared with $73.2 million as of December 31, 2022, and $78.4 million as of June 30, 2023.

2023 Outlook

Based on results for the first nine-months 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 $510 to $520 million and negative adjusted EBITDA between $(65) million and $(55) million.

Presentation

The financial results included in this earnings release reflect adjustments to prior period warranty liability amounts.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted gross margin, 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. 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 table 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 fourth 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.

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, and adjusted net income per diluted share. 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, impairment of goodwill, 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 Gross Margin to Adjusted Gross Margin

A reconciliation of GAAP gross margin to the non-GAAP measure of adjusted gross margin is provided below. Adjusted gross margin represents adjusted net revenue less adjusted cost of revenues.  Adjusted revenue represents revenue adjusted for revenue deemed lost through discounts on products during our transition to our new product line.  Adjusted cost of revenues presents cost of revenues excluding certain incremental costs incurred during our transition to our new product line. We believe adjusted gross margin provides additional useful information with respect to the impact of certain temporary or one-time items and provides a meaningful measure 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:
