NEW YORK, April 12, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rent the Runway, Inc. (“Rent the Runway” or "RTR") (NASDAQ: RENT), the world’s first and largest shared designer closet platform, today reported financial results for the fiscal quarter and fiscal year 2022 ended January 31, 2023.
"I'm proud that in fiscal 2022, we achieved 46% Revenue growth and completed a significant financial transformation, doubling our gross margins compared to 2019, right-sizing our fixed cost base, improving the capital efficiency of our product acquisition and restructuring our debt. These efforts drove progress on our path to FCF profitability, as we posted our first full year and third consecutive quarter of positive Adjusted EBITDA ahead of the timeline we outlined at IPO," said Jennifer Hyman, CEO and Co-Founder of Rent the Runway. "We believe we’ve built the financial foundation and infrastructure to capture the vast opportunity ahead and have conviction that we’ll continue to grow and become a profitable business by delivering meaningful value and innovation to the customer. We kicked off our customer-centric strategy in 2023 by changing all of our subscription programs to include an additional item in every shipment, which has already improved retention and rejoin rates, and contributed to our record high active subscriber count of 141,205 as of April 8, 2023."
CFO Scarlett O’Sullivan stated, “The fulfillment and product spend efficiencies we have driven in fiscal year 2022 have enabled us to provide an additional item in our subscription programs with minimal anticipated impact to our gross margins. Combined with the $25 million in annualized fixed cost savings we expect from our Q2 2022 restructuring, we believe we are set up for strong Adjusted EBITDA and significantly lower cash consumption in fiscal 2023, on our path to achieve free cash flow breakeven."

Fiscal Fourth Quarter, Fiscal Year 2022 and Recent Business Highlights
- In March 2023, permanently added an extra item to every shipment of our rental subscription programs to deliver greater value to subscribers. Early launch results already show improved retention and rejoin rates, with minimal expected impact on gross margin in fiscal year 2023.
- In March 2023, rolled out “Rent the Look”, a highly requested feature that showcases how to rent full outfits styled on-model and presents similar items if a particular item is not available to rent right now.
- In February 2023, executed this year’s first major technology launch to deliver best-in-class product discovery, completing the integration of our new product catalog, EPIC, into our new search service. As a result, we believe richer and fresher product attributes are yielding better search results.
- In fiscal 2022, completed migration to the cloud to unlock better resiliency, site performance and reliability, increased developer velocity, and the ability to scale more efficiently with subscriber growth.
- Q4 2022 saw continued strong subscriber engagement, with 28% of subscribers adding one or more paid additional items into their subscription program.
- Expanded at-home pickup to 34 markets covering 60% of our subscriber base. In addition, 29% of at-home pickups in Q4 2022 were “live-swap” (where the delivery and return happen simultaneously), leading to consolidation-based transportation cost savings. Subscriber adoption of at-home pickup within eligible zip codes was 37% at the end of Q4 2022 up from 34%1 at the end of Q3 2022.
- Achieved our product acquisition goal of 60% non-wholesale in fiscal 2022, excluding the opportunistic pull-forward of product spend from fiscal 2023 into fiscal 2022. Inclusive of all product spend for the year, non-wholesale represented 58% in fiscal 2022.
- In March 2023, launched 360, full-funnel “Era of Extra” marketing campaign to announce the launch of RTR's new subscription plans, which included collaboration with social media creators, video content to members from our CEO, full site and app takeover, a multi-touch email campaign, full coverage on paid social and search, plus activation with the RTR ambassador community.
- In March 2023, executed continued integration of Rent the Runway’s brand into pop culture with notable inclusion in Netflix’s Next in Fashion hosted by Gigi Hadid and Tan France. Winner Nigel Xavier’s collection -- which appears exclusively on RTR -- features upcycled garments, including pre-loved items from RTR.

CFO Transition
RTR also announced today that Scarlett O’Sullivan, its Chief Financial Officer has made the decision to transition out of her role effective May 25, 2023 (the “Effective Date”) and that Sid Thacker, currently the SVP, FP&A, has been appointed as Chief Financial Officer as of the Effective Date. Ms. O’Sullivan will continue to serve as an advisor to RTR until August 25, 2023 (or such other date as may be mutually agreed to by RTR and Ms. O’Sullivan).
“On behalf of the entire company and Board of Directors, I would like to thank Scarlett for her extensive contributions to Rent the Runway over the past seven-plus years,” said Hyman. “Scarlett has been a consistent and strong strategic partner to me, helping to guide Rent the Runway through critical financial and business transformations: from an a la carte business to a subscription business, through COVID-19, and from private company to public company. Scarlett’s leadership post-IPO enabled us to double our gross margins, restructure our debt and position the company for future free cash flow profitability. I’m personally grateful for Scarlett embodying a true founder mentality along every exciting stop of her journey at RTR, and appreciate her commitment to a smooth transition."
“Having completed a significant financial transformation of the business over the past several years, I believe that now is the right time to transition out of the role and elevate Sid Thacker, who has already proven himself an invaluable partner to me, Jenn and the company,” said O’Sullivan. “As a public investor for 20+ years, he brings a new perspective to our already strong team and we believe is the right finance leader to shepherd RTR through its next chapter. I am grateful to Jenn, the Executive Team and Board of Directors for their support. I have confidence in the 2023 plan, believe Rent the Runway has a great journey ahead and look forward to following the company’s success for years to come.”
“I'm honored to assume the role of CFO of Rent the Runway. I appreciate the confidence that Jenn, Scarlett, and the Board of Directors have in me. I'm grateful to be joining the leadership team of the company at an important inflection point,” said Thacker. “Over my investment career, I've seen companies succeed when they focus on their customers. I believe the ‘Era of Extra’ additional item subscription initiative, the exciting product improvements we are making this year and beyond, and the financial transformation over the past few years are a winning combination. I think our opportunity is considerable, and I look forward to working with the Board and Executive team to achieve our goals and help build a growing and free cash flow positive company.”

Key Business and Financial Metrics
Active Subscribers is defined as the number of subscribers with an active membership as of the last day of any given period and excludes paused subscribers.
Average Active Subscribers is defined as the mean of the beginning of quarter and end of quarter Active Subscribers for a quarterly period; and for other periods, represents the mean of the Average Active Subscribers of every quarter within that period.
Gross Profit is defined as total revenue less fulfillment expense, revenue share and rental product depreciation. We depreciate owned apparel assets over three years and owned accessory assets over two years net of 20% and 30% salvage values, respectively, and recognize the depreciation and remaining cost of items when sold or retired on our statement of operations. Rental product depreciation expense is time-based and reflects all items we own. We use Gross Profit and Gross Profit as a percentage of revenue, or Gross Margin to measure the continued efficiency of our business after the cost of our products and fulfillment costs are included.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and the accompanying tables contain the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin. In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are useful in evaluating our performance. Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance measure used by management to assess our operating performance and the operating leverage of our business prior to capital expenditures. These non-GAAP financial metrics are not meant to be considered as indicators of our financial performance in isolation from or as a substitute for our financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP and should be read only in conjunction with financial information presented on a GAAP basis. There are limitations to the use of the non-GAAP financial metrics presented in this press release. For example, our non-GAAP financial metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial metrics differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss, adjusted to exclude interest expense, rental product depreciation, other depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation expense, write-off of liquidated assets, non-recurring adjustments, and non-ordinary course legal fees (see below footnotes to reconciliation table), restructuring charges, loss on asset impairment related to restructuring, income taxes, other income and expense, gain / loss on warrant liability revaluation, net, gain / loss on debt extinguishment, net, and other gains / losses. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA calculated as a percentage of revenue.
The reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial metrics to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is presented below. We encourage reviewing the reconciliation in conjunction with the presentation of the non-GAAP financial metrics for each of the periods presented. In future periods, we may exclude similar items, may incur income and expenses similar to these excluded items, and may include other expenses, costs and non-recurring items. Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin guidance to the closest corresponding GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to the high variability, complexity, and low visibility with respect to the charges excluded from these non-GAAP measures, in particular, share-based compensation expense and non-recurring expenses which can have unpredictable fluctuations based on unforeseen activity that is out of our control and/or cannot reasonably be predicted.
