Exceeded Q2 2024 Outlook; Announcing $50
Million Share Repurchase Authorization
FIGS, Inc. (NYSE: FIGS) (the “Company”), the global leading
healthcare apparel brand dedicated to improving the lives of
healthcare professionals, today released its second quarter 2024
financial results and published a financial highlights presentation
on its investor relations website at
ir.wearfigs.com/financials/quarterly-results.
Second Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights
- Net revenues(1) were $144.2 million, an increase of 4.4%
year over year, due to an increase in orders from existing
customers, partially offset by a decrease in average order value
(“AOV”).(2)
- Gross margin was 67.4%, a decrease of 2.1% year over
year, primarily from product mix shift related to outperformance of
limited edition scrubwear and limited edition non-scrubwear.
- Operating expenses were $95.7 million, an increase of
7.0% year over year. As a percentage of net revenues, operating
expenses increased to 66.4% from 64.7% primarily due to higher
selling and marketing expenses, including transitory expenses
associated with the transition to our new fulfillment center,
offset by lower general and administrative expenses primarily due
to lower stock-based compensation expense.
- Net income and Net income, as adjusted(3) were
$1.1 million (or $0.01 in diluted earnings per share), a
decrease of $3.5 million year over year as compared to net income
and net income, as adjusted(3) in the same period last year.
- Net income margin(4) was 0.8%, as compared to 3.4% in
the same period last year.
- Adjusted EBITDA(3) was $12.9 million, a decrease of $6.0
million year over year.
- Adjusted EBITDA margin(3)(4) was 9.0%, as compared to
13.7% in the same period last year.
Key Operating Metrics
- Active customers(2) as of June 30, 2024 increased 6.1%
year over year to 2.6 million.
- Net revenues per active customer(2)(5) were $210, a
decrease of 2.3% year over year.
- AOV(2)(5) was $113, a decrease of 1.7% year over year
primarily driven by the accounting reclassification between net
revenues and selling expense related to duty subsidies for
international customers.
“Our strong second quarter performance shows that our
investments are paying off,” said Trina Spear, Chief Executive
Officer and Co-Founder. “Both net revenues and adjusted EBITDA
margin(3) exceeded our outlook, and we saw continued momentum in
the business, including a positive year-over-year repeat frequency
trend. Our strategy of combining pioneering product innovation with
powerful top of funnel marketing is resonating. We look forward to
continuing our momentum into the second half of the year, spurred
by the biggest and most exciting campaign we have ever done – our
first-of-its-kind partnership outfitting the Team USA Medical
Team.”
$50 Million Share Repurchase Authorization
The Company’s Board of Directors has authorized a share
repurchase program for up to $50.0 million of the Company’s
outstanding Class A common stock, with no expiration date.
“Our strong financial profile and long-term business outlook
give us the confidence to evolve our capital allocation strategy,”
said Ms. Spear. “We believe we have sufficient liquidity and cash
flow generation to both invest internally for growth and also
return value to our shareholders through a share repurchase
program.”
Under the program, the Company may repurchase shares in the open
market, through privately negotiated transactions, by entering into
structured repurchase agreements with third parties, by making
block purchases, entering into derivatives contracts and/or
pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, subject to market
conditions, applicable securities laws and other legal requirements
and relevant factors. The Company is not obligated to repurchase
any specific number of shares and the program may be modified,
suspended or terminated at any time, without prior notice. The
timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be
determined at the Company’s discretion, subject to business,
economic and market conditions and other factors.
Financial Outlook
For Full-Year 2024, the Company now expects:
Net Revenues versus 2023
Flat to 2% Growth
Adjusted EBITDA Margin(3)(6)
9.5% - 10%
(1) Second quarter 2024 net revenues results reflect $1.8
million in international duty subsidies recorded as contra revenue,
whereas international duty subsidies were recorded in selling
expense in second quarter 2023. As a result, year over year net
revenues growth was negatively impacted by 1.3 percentage
points.
(2) “Active customers,” “net revenues per active customer” and
“average order value” are key operational and business metrics that
are important to understanding the Company’s performance. Please
see the sections titled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key
Operating Metrics” and “Key Operating Metrics” below for
information regarding how the Company calculates its key
operational and business metrics and for comparisons of active
customers, net revenues per active customer and average order value
to the prior year period.
(3) “Net income, as adjusted,” “adjusted EBITDA” and “adjusted
EBITDA margin” are non-GAAP financial measures. Please see the
sections titled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Operating
Metrics” and “Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures” below
for more information regarding the Company’s use of non-GAAP
financial measures and reconciliations to the most directly
comparable GAAP measures.
(4) “Net income margin” and “adjusted EBITDA margin” are
calculated by dividing net income and adjusted EBITDA by net
revenues, respectively.
(5) Net revenues per active customer and AOV results for the
second quarter 2024 each reflect international duty subsidies
recorded as contra revenue, which were not reflected in the results
for these metrics for second quarter 2023. As a result, year over
year growth in each of these metrics was negatively impacted by
approximately 1 percentage point.
(6) 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 Key Operating Metrics.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and 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 uses “net income, as adjusted,” “diluted earnings
per share, 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
uses “free cash flow” as a useful supplemental measure of liquidity
and as an additional basis for assessing its ability to generate
cash. The Company calculates “net income, as adjusted,” as net
income adjusted to exclude transaction costs, expenses related to
non-ordinary course disputes, other than temporary impairment of
held-to-maturity investments, stock-based compensation, including
expense related to award modifications, accelerated performance
awards and associated payroll taxes and costs, ambassador grants in
connection with its initial public offering, and expense resulting
from the retirement of a former CFO of the Company, and the income
tax impact of these adjustments. The Company calculates “diluted
earnings per share, as adjusted” as net income, as adjusted divided
by diluted shares outstanding. 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. The
Company calculates “free cash flow” as net cash (used in) provided
by operating activities reduced by capital expenditures, including
purchases of property and equipment and capitalized software
development costs.
Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most
directly comparable GAAP measures are included below under the
heading “Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures.”
The Company has also included herein “active customers,” “net
revenues per active customer” and “average order value,” which are
key operational and business metrics that are important to
understanding Company performance. The Company believes the number
of active customers is an important indicator of growth as it
reflects the reach of the Company’s digital platform, brand
awareness and overall value proposition. The Company defines an
active customer as a unique customer account that has made at least
one purchase in the preceding 12-month period. In any particular
period, the Company determines the number of active customers by
counting the total number of customers who have made at least one
purchase in the preceding 12-month period, measured from the last
date of such period. The Company believes measuring net revenues
per active customer is important to understanding engagement and
retention of customers, and as such, the value proposition for its
customer base. The Company defines net revenues per active customer
as the sum of total net revenues in the preceding 12-month period
divided by the current period active customers. The Company defines
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 believes its relatively
high average order value demonstrates the premium nature of its
products. As the Company expands into and increases its presence in
additional product categories, price points and international
markets, average order value may fluctuate.
Active customers as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, net
revenues per active customer as of June 30, 2024 and 2023,
respectively, and average order value for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, are presented below
under the heading “Key Operating Metrics.”
