Exhibit 99.1
Revolve Group Announces First Quarter 2021 Financial Results
Los Angeles, CA – May 6, 2021 - Revolve Group, Inc. (NYSE: RVLV), the next-generation fashion retailer for Millennial and Generation Z consumers, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021.
“We delivered record quarterly net sales in the first quarter of 2021, highlighted by growth of 22% year-over-year and 30% over the first quarter of 2019, with meaningful acceleration in growth during March,” said co-founder and co-CEO Mike Karanikolas. “We also delivered record net income of $22 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, and $33 million in cash flow generated from operating activities, a more than 400% and 300% increase over the prior year, respectively. Our exceptional results for the first quarter reinforce our belief that REVOLVE is uniquely positioned for the reopening of economies and the post-COVID world as a brand consumers associate with living an active social lifestyle. We are excited to re-accelerate our investment in the business to support our next phase of growth.”
“Particularly exciting is that the strong recovery in March came from a return to growth in styles associated with social outings, such as dresses, as well as continued strong growth in at home related products, including beauty, intimates and activewear that have grown rapidly throughout the pandemic,” said co-founder and co-CEO Michael Mente. “Driven by our powerful brand, our proprietary technology, and our data driven merchandising, our results demonstrate great progress against our goal of developing a deeper relationship with our customer and capturing a larger share of her wallet over time.”

Additional First Quarter 2021 Metrics and Results Commentary
| • | Total net sales were $178.9 million, a year-over-year increase of 22.5%. |
|---|---|
| • | The year-over-year growth rate for net sales reflects meaningful acceleration that began in mid-March driven by continued strong sales growth in at-home products such as beauty, intimates and activewear combined with significantly improved trends in categories associated with social outings, such as dresses. The quarterly year-over-year comparison was helped by easier comparisons to the prior year beginning in the second week of March. We believe that the 2021 results were also positively impacted by U.S. federal government stimulus payments distributed to U.S. consumers during March 2021. As a result, in the above tables, we have provided data for the first quarter of 2019 to serve as an additional reference point for comparison. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Gross margin was 54.0%, a year-over-year increase of approximately 540 basis points and the highest-ever gross margin reported for a first quarter. Gross margin benefitted from very healthy inventory dynamics that contributed to a year-over-year increase in the percentage of net sales at full-price and a year-over-year decrease in the depth of markdowns, partially offset by a lower contribution from owned brands that is consistent with the outlook shared on recent investor conference calls. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Net income was a record $22.3 million, a year-over-year increase of 435%, and more than four times greater than Q1 2019 net income, the most recent first quarter before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Operational efficiency benefit from lower return rates year over year: For the fourth consecutive quarter, net income benefitted from a lower return rate year over year as operating efficiency within fulfillment and selling and distribution expenses continued to benefit from customers returning a lower proportion of their purchases. Now that we are more than 12 months into the COVID-19 pandemic and considering the recent relative strength in the sales of dresses (a category with a higher-than-average return rate), consistent with previous commentary, we expect these return rate tailwinds to reverse beginning in the second quarter of 2021. In the short term, we expect this dynamic to cause selling and distribution expenses, where the majority of costs are shipping related, to increase year over year as a percentage of net sales, and to a lesser extent, to result in more difficult year-over-year comparisons for fulfillment expenses expressed as a percentage of net sales in upcoming quarters. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Adjusted EBITDA was $23.3 million, a year-over-year increase of 316%, and also meaningfully higher than Q1 2019 Adjusted EBITDA, the most recent first quarter before the impact of COVID-19. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Diluted earnings per share (EPS) was $0.30, five times greater than the $0.06 reported in Q1 2020, and also more than four times greater than Q1 2019 EPS, the most recent first quarter before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Tax rate: Net income and EPS for the first quarters of 2021 and 2020 each benefitted from a lower effective tax rate that resulted in tax benefits, primarily due to excess tax benefits realized as a result of the exercise of non-qualified stock options. Absent such discrete tax items in future quarters, we expect our effective tax rate to be around 25%. |
| --- | --- |
Additional Net Sales Commentary
| • | REVOLVE segment net sales were $152.2 million, a year-over-year increase of 22.2%. |
|---|---|
| • | FORWARD segment net sales were $26.7 million, a year-over-year increase of 23.8%, reflecting healthy expansion despite a very tough prior-year comparison in Q1 2020 when FORWARD net sales grew 47% year over year. |
| --- | --- |
| • | International net sales increased 38% year over year, outperforming the domestic net sales increase of 19% year over year. The international strength was broad based with Australia, Canada, Greater China and the Middle East each delivering strong double-digit growth in net sales. |
| --- | --- |
Cash Flow and Balance Sheet
| • | Net cash provided by operating activities was $33.2 million, a year-over-year increase of 311%, and free cash flow was $32.5 million, a year-over-year increase of 331%. The combination of strong profitability, favorable working capital changes and our capital efficiency led to an exceptional quarter of cash flow generation. |
|---|---|
| • | Balance sheet: The strong cash flow further strengthened our balance sheet and liquidity. Cash and cash equivalents, net of borrowings, as of March 31, 2021 were $182.9 million, an increase of $109.3 million, or 149%, |
| --- | --- |
| from $73.6 million as of March 31, 2020, and an increase of $36.9 million, or 25%, from December 31, 2020. Our balance sheet as of March 31, 2021 remains debt free. | |
| --- | |
| • | Inventory as of March 31, 2021 was $100.5 million, an increase of $5.2 million, or 5%, from December 31, 2020. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Inventory decreased $0.9 million year over year, or 1%, from the inventory balance of $101.4 million as of March 31, 2020. By comparison, net sales increased 22.5% year over year, illustrating our increased inventory efficiency. Going forward, we intend to continue to invest in our inventory position to support anticipated growth in consumer demand. |

Results Since the End of Q1 2021
Results for the month of April 2021 marked a continuation of recent momentum, with year-over-year growth in net sales in April meaningfully outpacing the 22% year-over-year growth reported for the first quarter of 2021. While COVID-19 has continued to have a negative impact on REVOLVE’s operations and on net sales in certain regions, we are encouraged by the pace of vaccine uptake and signs of healthy economic recovery across the United States and in many of our key markets around the world. We have also recently resumed our in-person marketing events with appropriate safety protocols, successfully hosting impactful marketing events in Australia and Los Angeles. We plan to invest even further in additional marketing events and programs in the near term to capitalize on the reopening opportunity with newly vaccinated consumers excited to socialize in person, travel and enjoy the active lifestyle they have come to associate with REVOLVE.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Operating Metrics
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (GAAP), we reference in this press release and the accompanying tables the following non-GAAP financial measures: adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow.
The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, and our non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
We use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital. Our management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of our ongoing core operating performance. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when analyzing historical performance and liquidity and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods.
For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures, please see the tables captioned “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included at the end of this release.
Definitions of our Non-GAAP financial measures and other operating metrics are presented below.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that we calculate as net income before other expense (income), net; taxes; and depreciation and amortization; adjusted to exclude the effects of equity-based compensation expense and certain non-routine items. Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by management to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital. In particular, the exclusion of certain expenses in calculating Adjusted EBITDA facilitates operating performance comparisons on a period-to-period basis and, in the case of exclusion of the impact of equity-based compensation, excludes an item that we do not consider to be indicative of our core operating performance.
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that we calculate as net cash provided by operating activities less cash used in purchases of property and equipment. We view free cash flow as an important indicator of our liquidity because it measures the amount of cash we generate. Free cash flow also reflects changes in working capital.
Active Customers
We define an active customer as a unique customer account from which a purchase was made across our platform at least once in the preceding 12-month period. In any particular period, we determine our 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.
Orders Placed
We define total orders placed as the total number of customer orders placed by our customers across our platform in any period.
Average Order Value
We define average order value as the sum of the total gross sales from our sites in a given period divided by the total orders placed in that period. We believe our high average order value demonstrates the premium nature of our product. Average order value varies depending on the site through which we sell merchandise.
