Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or our future financial or operating performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “may,” “will,” “shall,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern our expectations, strategy, plans or intentions. Forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include, but are not limited to, statements about:

•our future financial performance, including our revenue, cost of revenue and operating expenses and our ability to achieve and maintain future profitability;

•the sufficiency of our cash, cash equivalents and capital resources to meet our liquidity needs;

•our ability to effectively manage or sustain our growth and to effectively expand our operations;

•our strategies, plans, objectives and goals, including our expectations regarding future infrastructure investments as well as restructuring activities;

•our ability to attract and retain buyers and sellers and the continued impact of network effects as we scale our platform;

•our ability to continue to generate revenue from new Resale-as-a-Service (“RaaS”) offerings as sources of revenue;

•trends in our key financial and operating metrics;

•our estimated market opportunity;

•economic and industry trends, projected growth or trend analysis, including the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, inflationary pressures, increased interest rates and changing consumer habits and general global economic uncertainty;

•our ability to comply with laws and regulations;

•the effect of uncertainties related to the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic, including its varied social and macroeconomic consequences and recovery therefrom on United States and global economies, our business, results of operations, financial condition, demand for secondhand and resale items, sales cycles and buyer and seller retention;

•our ability to remediate our material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting;

•our ability to successfully integrate and realize the benefits of our past or future strategic acquisitions or investments; and

•the increased expenses associated with being a public company.

You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The outcome of the events described in these forward-looking statements is subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors described in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The results, events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur, and actual results, events or circumstances could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Organization and Description of Business

ThredUp Inc. (“thredUP” or the “Company”) was formed as a corporation in the State of Delaware in January 2009. thredUP is a large resale platform that enables consumers to buy and sell primarily secondhand women’s and kid’s apparel, shoes and accessories.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the United States (“U.S.”) Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information can be condensed or omitted.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts that are reported in the consolidated financial statements and the related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the useful lives of property and equipment and intangibles, allowance for sales returns, allowance for bad debts, breakage on loyalty points and rewards and valuation of inventory, stock-based compensation, right-of-use assets, goodwill and acquired intangibles and income taxes.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2022, and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial information should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “2021 10-K”).

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications were made to the prior period condensed consolidated statement of cash flows to conform to the current period presentation.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU changes the impairment model for most financial assets, requiring the use of an expected loss model which requires entities to estimate the lifetime expected credit loss on financial assets measured at amortized cost. Such credit losses will be recorded as an allowance to offset the amortized cost of the financial asset, resulting in a net presentation of the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. In addition, credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities will now be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a direct write-down to the security. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Revenue from Loyalty Reward Redemption and Expiration

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had a liability of $3.3 million and $4.0 million, respectively, related to its customer loyalty program, which is included in accrued and other current liabilities within the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company recognized revenue from loyalty reward redemption and expiration of $2.2 million and $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $7.4 million and $10.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows:


	September 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
	(in thousands)
Cash and cash equivalents	$	36,713	$	84,550
Restricted cash included in Other current assets	1,685		560
Restricted cash included in Other assets	5,702		6,730
Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the statement of cash flows	$	44,100	$	91,840

Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, for its financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into three broad levels as follows:

•Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

•Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

•Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The Company measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value as discussed throughout the notes to its condensed consolidated financial statements. As of both September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the carrying amounts of the Company’s accounts receivable, other current assets, other assets, accounts payable, seller payable and accrued and other current liabilities approximated their estimated fair values due to their relatively short maturities. Management believes the terms of its long-term debt reflect current market conditions for an instrument with similar terms and maturity, and as such, the carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt approximated its fair value as of both September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s cash equivalents approximated their estimated fair value. As such, there are no unrealized gains or losses related to the Company’s cash equivalents.

For the Company’s marketable securities, which were all classified as available-for-sale, the Company utilizes third-party pricing services to obtain fair value. Third-party pricing methodologies incorporate bond terms and conditions, current performance data, proprietary pricing models, real-time quotes from contributing dealers, trade prices and other market data.

The Company’s money market funds, U.S. treasury securities, corporate debt securities and U.S. government agency bonds were valued using Level 1 inputs because they are valued using quoted prices in active markets.

The Company’s commercial paper is valued using Level 2 inputs because it is valued using quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

There were no transfers between levels during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. As of September 30, 2022, of the $86.5 million carrying amount of marketable securities, $83.0 million had a contractual maturity date of less than one year and $3.5 million had a contractual maturity date between one to two years.

Goodwill is reviewed for impairment at least annually, absent any interim indicators of impairment. Goodwill was $10.6 million and $12.2 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The decrease in goodwill during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was due to foreign currency translation adjustments.

7. Long-Term Debt

In February 2019, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement (“Term Loan”) with Western Alliance Bank for an aggregate amount of up to $40.0 million to refinance its prior loan and security agreement with Silicon Valley Bank. The Company incurred an immaterial amount of debt issuance costs in connection with the Term Loan. The debt issuance costs are recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet and are being amortized over the life of the Term Loan using the effective-interest method.

The Term Loan was subsequently amended several times, with the most recent amendment taking place in July 2022. As amended, the Term Loan matures on July 14, 2027 and provides for an aggregate borrowing amount of up to $70.0 million, which bears interest at the prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal plus a margin of 1.25%, with a floor of 6.00%. The Company incurred an immaterial amount of debt issuance costs in connection with the amendment. For accounting purposes, pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 470, Debt, this transaction was accounted for as a modification of the Term Loan. The debt issuance costs were recognized in interest expense within the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations during the third quarter of 2022.

The Term Loan requires the Company to comply with certain financial covenants, including, among other things, liquidity requirements, performance metrics, and a debt service coverage ratio. The Term Loan also contains affirmative and negative covenants customary for financings of this type, including, among other things, limitations or prohibitions on repurchasing common shares, declaring and paying dividends and other distributions, redeeming and repurchasing certain other indebtedness, loans and investments, additional indebtedness, liens, mergers, asset sales and transactions with affiliates. In addition, the Term Loan contains customary events of default. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants under the Term Loan.

The Term Loan is payable in consecutive monthly installments. Interest is due monthly on amounts outstanding under the Term Loan. The Company is also permitted to make voluntary prepayments without penalty or premium at any time.

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the effective interest rate for borrowings under the Term Loan was 8.22% and 6.65%, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company borrowed an aggregate amount of $0.7 million under the Term Loan and repaid a total of $5.3 million on amounts outstanding under the Term Loan. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company borrowed an aggregate amount of $5.0 million under the Term Loan and repaid a total of $2.0 million on amounts outstanding under the Term Loan. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the amount outstanding under the Term Loan was $31.3 million and $36.0 million, respectively.

During the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized $0.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively, of interest expense relating to the Term Loan, which included $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively, relating to amortization of debt discount and issuance costs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized $0.8 million and $1.8 million, respectively, of interest expense relating to the Term Loan, which included $0.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively, relating to amortization of debt discount and issuance costs.

10. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Contingencies

The Company is subject to litigation claims and assessments from time to time in the ordinary course of business. The Company’s management does not believe that any such matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Indemnifications

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties and provide for limited and customary indemnification obligations. The Company’s exposure under these agreements is unknown because it involves claims that may be made against the Company in the future, but that have not yet been made.

11. Income Taxes

The quarterly income tax provision reflects an estimate of the corresponding quarter’s state taxes in the United States. The provision for income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was determined based upon estimates of the Company’s annual effective tax rate for the years ending December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Since the Company is in a full valuation allowance position due to losses incurred since inception, the provision for taxes consists solely of certain state income taxes.

12. Loss Per Share

The following participating securities have been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share for the periods presented because including them would have been anti-dilutive:

Overview

thredUP is one of the world’s largest online resale platforms for women’s and kids’ apparel, shoes and accessories. Our mission is to inspire a new generation of consumers to think secondhand first. We believe in a sustainable fashion future and we are proud that our business model creates a positive impact to the benefit of our buyers, sellers, clients, employees, investors and the environment. Our custom-built operating platform consists of distributed processing infrastructure, proprietary software and systems and data science expertise. This platform is powering the rapidly emerging resale economy, one of the fastest growing sectors in retail, according to a GlobalData market survey conducted in February 2022.

thredUP’s proprietary operating platform is the foundation for our managed marketplace, where we have bridged online and offline technology to make the buying and selling of tens of millions of unique items easy and fun. The marketplace we have built enables buyers to browse and purchase resale items for primarily women’s and kids’ apparel, shoes and accessories across a wide range of price points. Buyers love shopping value, premium and luxury brands all in one place, at up to 90% off estimated retail price. Sellers love thredUP because we make it easy to clean out their closets and unlock value for themselves or for the charity of their choice while doing good for the planet. thredUP’s sellers order a Clean Out Kit, fill it and return it to us using our prepaid label. We take it from there and do the work to make those items available for resale.

In 2018, based on our success with consumers directly, we extended our platform to enable brands and retailers to participate in the resale economy. Some of the world’s leading brands and retailers are already taking advantage of our RaaS offering, which allows them to conveniently offer a scalable closet clean out service and/or resale shop to their customers. We believe RaaS will accelerate the growth of this emerging category and form the backbone of the modern resale experience domestically and internationally.

In 2021, we completed our acquisition of Remix Global EAD (“Remix”), a fashion resale company based in Sofia, Bulgaria. With this acquisition, we further expanded our reach to European customers, added a complementary operational infrastructure and added an experienced management team to enable our expansion into Europe. In addition, Remix’s product assortment extended our resale offering to include men’s items and items sourced from a variety of supply channels, such as wholesale supply.

Recent Business Developments

COVID-19 Update

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and its varied social and macroeconomic consequences have continued to impact our business. Our performance has been adversely affected by market instability, supply chain disruptions, labor challenges caused by the pandemic and the U.S. government response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the absence of any U.S. economic stimulus in 2022. If any of these conditions are sustained then our future results and performance may be be similarly adversely affected.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we experienced an increase in consumer demand partially due to the reduced severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and shift in consumer and lifestyle patterns. Gross margin and operating expenses were impacted due to rising labor, processing and other costs to support the consumer demand experienced to date.

Table of Contents

The COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing recovery also contributed to a tightened labor supply. We continue to experience challenges in hiring and retaining employees in our distribution network. We have implemented compensation and benefits programs to attract potential employees and to improve employee retention. These programs caused, along with an inflationary labor market, higher Cost of Revenue and higher Operations, Product and Technology expenses and negatively impacted our results of operations.

We expect that the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition, including our revenue and cash flows in the short term. Due to the unpredictable nature of the pandemic, it is difficult to predict the long-term impact on our business. See Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, of the 2021 10-K for further discussion of the possible impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, operations and financial condition.

Inflation

The Russia-Ukraine conflict and other geopolitical conflicts, as well as the related international response, have exacerbated inflationary pressures during the pandemic. We continue to actively monitor, evaluate and respond to developments relating to operational challenges in an inflationary environment. Global supply chain disruptions and the higher inflationary environment remain unpredictable and our past results may not be indicative of future performance.

Foreign Currency

In recent months, the U.S. dollar has been appreciating against major European currencies, including the Bulgarian lev, for both economic and geopolitical reasons. The strengthening U.S. dollar had a negative impact on our consolidated sales. We are managing the currency risk related to earnings through natural hedges and have offsetting costs relating to operating our business and a regional source of supply. Therefore, changes to exchange rates have not had a significant impact to our earnings. We continue to monitor our foreign exchange exposure as we grow our business globally. For further details, please refer to Part I, Item 3, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Restructuring

In the second and third quarters of 2022, we restructured certain back-office functions to improve efficiencies and to reduce overhead costs. In addition, we closed our processing centers in Tennessee and Texas and consolidated their operations into our distribution center in Texas, which is under construction. These and future restructuring activities are expected to provide future growth and efficiency benefits; however, the actual results may differ.

Overview of Third Quarter Results

Revenue: Total revenue was $67.9 million, an increase of 7.4% year-over-year.

Gross Profit and Margin: Gross profit totaled $44.5 million, representing a decline of 3.5% year-over-year. Gross margin decreased by 736 basis points to 65.5% from 72.8% in the comparable quarter last year.

Net Loss: Net loss was $23.7 million, or a negative 34.8% of revenue, for the third quarter of 2022, compared to a net loss of $14.7 million for the third quarter of 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA loss was $11.0 million, or a negative 16.2% of revenue, for the third quarter of 2022 compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $7.8 million, or a negative 12.4% of revenue, for the third quarter of 2021.

Active Buyers and Orders: Active Buyers totaled 1.7 million and Orders totaled 1.6 million in the third quarter of 2022, representing growth of 17.7% and 24.5%, respectively, compared to the third quarter of 2021.

Key Financial and Operating Metrics

We review a number of operating and financial metrics, including the following key business and non-GAAP metrics, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans and make strategic decisions. These key financial and operating metrics are set forth below for the periods presented.

(1)See below for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss.

Active Buyers

An Active Buyer is a thredUP buyer who has made at least one purchase in the last twelve months. A thredUP buyer is a customer who has created an account or purchased in our marketplaces, including through our RaaS clients, and is identified by a unique email address. A single person could have multiple thredUP accounts and count as multiple Active Buyers. The number of Active Buyers is a key driver of revenue for our marketplaces and we expect the number of Active Buyers to increase over time.

Orders

Orders means the total number of orders placed by buyers across our marketplaces, including through our RaaS clients, in a given period, net of cancellations. We expect Orders to increase over time.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA means net loss adjusted to exclude, where applicable in a given period, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, interest expense, acquisition related expenses, restructuring charges, change in fair value of convertible preferred stock warrant liability and provision for income taxes. We use Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP metric, to evaluate and assess our operating performance and the operating leverage in our business, and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, when taken collectively with our GAAP results, may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance and assists in comparisons with other companies, some of which use similar non-GAAP financial information to supplement their GAAP results.

Product revenue as a percentage of total revenue	38.8		%	24.0		%					36.6		%	21.0		%

Total revenue increased $4.7 million, or 7.4%, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to the inclusion of our European operations beginning October 2021, which is included in product revenue, and resultant increases in total Orders and Active Buyers of 24.5% and 17.7%, respectively, partially offset by a decrease in U.S. revenue from lower Orders, higher returns and increased promotional strategy in response to the U.S. macroeconomic environment.

Total revenue increased $38.1 million, or 21.3%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to the inclusion of our European operations beginning October 2021, which is included in product revenue, and resultant increases in total Orders and Active Buyers of 36.1% and 17.7%, respectively.

We experienced slowing revenue and Order growth beginning in the back half of June 2022 and continuing into the third quarter that is attributable to various factors including, but not limited to, general global economic uncertainty, rising interest rates, increased inflation and weakening consumer discretionary spending.

Gross margin	65.5		%	72.8		%					67.9		%	72.6		%

Gross margin was 65.5% and 72.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, or an unfavorable change of 736 basis points, and 67.9% and 72.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, or an unfavorable change of 474 basis points.

The decrease in gross margin for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily due to the inclusion of operating results of our European operations from October 2021 onward. Revenue from our European operations is primarily derived from product sales with a lower gross margin. Consignment sales have a higher gross margin than product sales but made up a smaller percentage of total revenue for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same periods in 2021. Revenue for consignment sales is recognized net of seller payouts and cost of items sold, whereas for product sales, seller payouts and cost of items sold are included as a component of cost of revenue.

Consignment gross margin	78.1		%	79.0		%					78.7		%	77.6		%

Consignment gross margin was 78.1% and 79.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, or an unfavorable change of 90 basis points, and 78.7% and 77.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, or a favorable change of 101 basis points.

The decrease in consignment gross margin for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021 was primarily due to an unfavorable impact of outbound shipping of 49 basis points, unfavorable impact of direct labor of 27 basis points, and other unfavorable cost changes of 29 basis points, partially offset by a favorable impact of packaging of 15 basis points.

The increase in consignment gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021 was primarily due to a favorable impact of outbound shipping of 222 basis points as a result of order consolidation and a favorable impact of packaging of 3 basis points, partially offset by an unfavorable impact of direct labor of 87 basis points and other unfavorable cost changes of 37 basis points.

Product gross margin was 45.6% and 53.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, or an unfavorable change of 772 basis points, and 49.3% and 53.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, or an unfavorable change of 446 basis points.

Our European operations, which have been included in our operating results beginning October 2021, have lower product gross margin mainly due to the capitalization of production costs into inventory.

The decrease in product gross margin for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021 was primarily due to the net unfavorable impact of including our European operations of 1,245 basis points, an unfavorable impact of packaging of 41 basis points, and an unfavorable impact of direct labor of 39 basis points, partially offset by a favorable impact of inventory costs of 450 basis points and a favorable impact of outbound shipping of 104 basis points.

The decrease in product gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021 was primarily due to the net unfavorable impact of including our European operations of 1,002 basis points, an unfavorable impact of direct labor of 81 basis points, and an unfavorable impact of packaging of 13 basis points, partially offset by a favorable impact of inventory costs of 395 basis points and a favorable impact of outbound shipping of 254 basis points.

Operations, product and technology as a percentage of total revenue	57.0		%	50.7		%					56.1		%	51.1		%

Operations, product and technology expenses increased $6.6 million, or 20.6%, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily due to a $2.1 million increase in facilities, technology and other allocated costs due to the expansion of our distribution network and European operations and a $3.3 million increase in personnel-related costs related to our European operations, restructuring, higher stock based compensation expense mainly from restricted stock vesting and expenses associated with our distribution network. In addition, we experienced a $1.2 million increase in inbound shipping and other costs due mainly to our European operations and increased bag processing and other costs.

Operations, product and technology expenses increased $30.4 million, or 33.2%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021. Personnel-related costs increased by $18.5 million due to our European operations, higher stock-based compensation expense from restricted stock vesting, expenses associated with our distribution network, restructuring and increase in employee salaries and wages.

Marketing expenses decreased $2.2 million, or 12.9%, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $4.1 million decrease in marketing and advertising costs, partially offset by a $1.1 million increase in personnel-related costs related to salaries, stock compensation, restructuring and other expenses, a $0.6 million increase in technology and other costs, and a $0.2 million increase in professional services.

Marketing expenses increased $3.0 million, or 6.3%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily due to a $3.0 million increase in personnel-related costs related to salaries, stock compensation and other expenses, a $1.3 million increase in technology and other costs, and a $0.6 million increase in professional services, partially offset by a $1.9 million decrease in marketing and advertising costs.

Sales, general and administrative expenses increased $2.7 million, or 21.2%, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily due to a $4.6 million increase in personnel-related costs related to salaries, stock compensation, restructuring, our European operations and other costs, partially offset by a $1.8 million decrease in professional services due to expenses related to our follow-on offering incurred in 2021 and the impact of cost savings initiatives in 2022, and a $0.2 million decrease in other costs.

Sales, general and administrative expenses increased $13.1 million, or 38.2%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have historically generated negative cash flows from operations and have primarily financed our operations through private and public sales of equity securities and debt. As of September 30, 2022, we had cash, cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities of $123.2 million. Additionally, we have a term loan facility (“Term Loan”) under which $38.0 million remained available to be drawn as of September 30, 2022 and we were in full compliance with our debt covenants under the Term Loan as of that date. See Note 7, Long-Term Debt, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a further discussion on our Term Loan.

We expect operating losses and negative cash flows from operations to continue into the foreseeable future as we continue to invest in growing our business and expanding our infrastructure. Our primary use of cash includes operating costs such as distribution network spend, product and technology expenses, marketing expenses, personnel expenses and other expenditures necessary to support our operations and our growth. Additionally, our primary capital expenditures are related to the set-up, expansion and/or automation of our distribution network and may be accelerated or delayed based on our operating position and business needs. Based upon our current operating plans, we believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities will be sufficient to meet our short- and long-term capital requirements and we do not anticipate expanding our distribution network to include additional locations in the near term. Our forecast of the period of time through which our financial resources will be adequate to support our operations is a forward-looking statement that involves risks and uncertainties, and actual results could vary materially.

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to the timing of our increased distribution center automation and expansion plans to support planned revenue growth, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, the potential introduction of new offerings and new RaaS clients, the continuing growth of our marketplace and overall economic conditions. We may seek additional equity or debt financing. If we raise equity financing, our stockholders may experience significant dilution of their ownership interests. If we conduct an additional debt financing, the terms of such debt financing may be similar or more restrictive than our current Term Loan, and we would have additional debt service obligations. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, we may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods indicated:

Net change in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	(47,740)	$	98,578

Changes in Cash Flows from Operating Activities

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net cash used in operating activities increased by $22.8 million and was $36.9 million compared to $14.1 million for the same period in 2021. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was partially the result of a $27.5 million increase in net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021. This was offset by non-cash increases in stock based compensation of $11.4 million due to higher restricted stock vesting, depreciation and amortization of $4.1 million due to intangibles relating to the Remix acquisition, capital and infrastructure investments, and reduction in the carrying amount of right of use assets of $1.6 million.

Table of Contents

Net cash used in operating activities further decreased due to a $12.0 million decrease in flows from operating assets and liabilities. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was due to build of inventory in 2022 to meet European seasonal demand and higher owned inventory in the U.S and reduction in accounts payable, accrued liabilities and seller payable flows due to timing and reduction in spend, offset by flows from other current and non-current assets due to growth of prepaid expenses in 2021 and inflow from operating lease liabilities resulting from lease incentives.

Changes in Cash Flows from Investing Activities

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net cash used in investing activities decreased by $109.4 million and was $7.0 million compared to $116.3 million for the same period in 2021. The decrease in net cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily due a $133.5 million decrease in net cash used to purchase marketable securities and provided by marketable security maturities. The change in net cash from marketable securities was partially offset by an increase in purchases of property and equipment of $24.2 million.

Changes in Cash Flows from Financing Activities

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net cash used in financing activities decreased by $232.0 million and was $2.9 million net cash used as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $229.0 million for the same period in 2021. The increase in net cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily due to $222.7 million decrease in equity offerings and payments of offering transaction costs, an increase in net debt payments of $7.5 million and an increase in tax withholding related to vested restricted stock of $1.9 million.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the year. We base our estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the recording of revenue, costs and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies since the 2021 10-K. For a description of critical accounting policies that affect our significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements, see Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of the 2021 10-K.

JOBS Act Accounting Election

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to use this extended transition period until we are no longer an emerging growth company or until we affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period. Accordingly, our condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

New Accounting Pronouncements

See discussion under Note 2, Significant Accounting Policies, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for information on new accounting pronouncements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of our business. These risks primarily include:

Table of Contents

Interest Rate Risk

As of September 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $36.7 million and marketable securities of $86.5 million, consisting primarily of money market funds, commercial paper, corporate debt securities, U.S. treasury securities and U.S. government agency bonds, which carry a degree of interest rate risk. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while maximizing income without significantly increasing risk. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes and have not used any derivative financial instruments to manage our interest rate risk exposure. Due to the short- to intermediate-term nature of our investments, we have not been exposed to, nor do we anticipate being exposed to, material risks due to fluctuations in interest rates.

The Term Loan bears variable interest rates tied to the prime rate, with a floor of 6.00%, and therefore carry interest rate risk. If interest rates were to increase or decrease by 1% for the year and our borrowing amounts on the Term Loan remained constant, our annual interest expense could increase or decrease by approximately $0.3 million, respectively.

Inflation Risk

In recent months, inflation has increased significantly in the U.S. and overseas where we conduct our business, resulting in rising interest rates, fuel, labor and processing, freight and other costs that have affected our gross margin and operating expenses. We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations to date. However, these increases could negatively impact our business by driving up our operating and borrowing costs. Although difficult to quantify, we believe inflation is potentially having an adverse effect on our customers’ ability to purchase in our marketplaces, resulting in slowing revenue and Order growth. If we are unable to increase our prices to sufficiently offset the rising costs of doing business, our profitability and financial position could be adversely impacted.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We transact business in Europe through Remix in multiple currencies. As a result, our operating results, cash flows and net investment in Remix are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. As of September 30, 2022, our most significant currency exposure was the Bulgarian lev. We manage our foreign currency exchange rate risks through natural hedges including foreign currency revenue and costs matching, as well as foreign currency assets offsetting liabilities. We have not entered into any hedging arrangements with respect to foreign currency risk, but we may do so in the future if our exposure to foreign currency becomes more significant.

Assets and liabilities of our foreign operations are translated into dollars at period-end rates, while income and expenses are translated using the average exchange rate during the period in which the transactions occurred. The related translation adjustments were reflected as an unfavorable foreign currency translation adjustment of $5.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which was recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss within our condensed consolidated balance sheet.

A hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates would not have had a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations during any of the periods presented.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined under the Exchange Act, means controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objective and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Further, no evaluation of control can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.

Table of Contents

Because of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting discussed below, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. In light of this fact, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has put in place processes and controls and other post-closing procedures and has concluded that, notwithstanding the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods covered by and included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with GAAP.

Previously Reported Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

As previously disclosed in the 2021 10-K, in connection with the audit of our financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, 2019 and 2018 we identified certain control deficiencies in the design and implementation of our internal control over financial reporting that in the aggregate constituted a material weakness. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Our material weakness related to the following control deficiencies:

•We did not design and maintain effective control over our accounting and proprietary data systems used in our financial reporting process. These systems lacked controls over user access, program change management, computer operation and data validation to ensure that IT program and data changes affecting financial accounting applications and underlying accounting records are identified, tested, authorized and implemented appropriately.

•We did not design and maintain adequate controls over the preparation and review of certain account reconciliations and journal entries. Specifically, we did not design and maintain controls and we did not maintain a sufficient complement of accounting personnel to ensure: (i) the appropriate segregation of duties in the preparation and review of account reconciliations and journal entries, and (ii) account reconciliations were prepared and reviewed at the appropriate level of precision on a consistent and timely basis.

The deficiencies described above, if not remediated, could result in a misstatement of one or more account balances or disclosures in our annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected, and, accordingly, we determined that these control deficiencies constitute a material weakness.

Remediation Plans

To address our material weakness, we have added accounting, finance and information technology personnel and implemented new financial accounting processes, controls, and systems. We are continuing to take steps to remediate the material weakness described above through implementing enhancements and controls within our accounting and proprietary systems, hiring additional qualified accounting, finance and information technology resources and further evolving our accounting and quarterly close processes. We will not be able to fully remediate these control deficiencies until these steps have been completed and the controls have been operating effectively for a sufficient period of time.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We are taking actions to remediate the material weaknesses relating to our internal control over financial reporting, as described above. Except as described above, there was not any change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(a)None.

(b)On March 30, 2021, we closed our IPO, in which we sold 13,800,000 shares of our Class A common stock at an offering price of $14.00 per share, including 1,800,000 shares pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common stock, resulting in net proceeds to us of $175.5 million after deducting offering costs, underwriting discounts and commissions of $17.7 million. All of the shares offered, issued and sold in our IPO were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-253834), which was declared effective by the SEC on March 25, 2021. There has been no material change in the planned use of proceeds from the IPO as disclosed in our final prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) on March 26, 2021.

On August 2, 2021, the Company issued and sold 2,000,000 shares of Class A common stock at a price of $24.25 per share in a registered public offering.
