Oakland, CA — May 5, 2025 — ThredUp Inc. (Nasdaq: TDUP, LTSE: TDUP), one of the largest online resale platforms for apparel, shoes, and accessories, announced today its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025 and updated full year 2025 financial outlook.
“We are proud to deliver Q1 out-performance, including a record quarter for new buyer acquisition,” said ThredUp CEO and co-founder James Reinhart. “With momentum in our marketplace, we are pleased to be raising our full year outlook while we continue to improve the product experience for both buyers and sellers.”
First Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights1
•Revenue: Revenue totaled $71.3 million, an increase of 10% year-over-year.
•Gross Profit and Gross Margin: Gross profit totaled $56.4 million, an increase of 9% year-over-year. Gross margin was 79.1% as compared to 80.1% in the first quarter last year.
•Loss from Continuing Operations: Loss from continuing operations was $5.2 million, or a negative 7.3% of revenue, for the first quarter 2025, compared to a loss from continuing operations of $12.2 million, or a negative 18.9% of revenue, for the first quarter last year.
•Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations1: Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations was $3.8 million, or 5.3% of revenue, for the first quarter 2025, compared to $1.9 million, or 2.9% of revenue, for the first quarter last year.
1 Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations margin are non-GAAP measures. See “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a detailed reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures and “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a discussion of why we believe these non-GAAP measures are useful.
•Active Buyers and Orders: Active Buyers of 1.37 million and Orders of 1.37 million for the first quarter 2025, representing increases of 6% and 16%, respectively, over the first quarter last year.
Recent Business Highlights
•Launched Shop Social: In April, ThredUp launched an AI-powered social commerce experience called Shop Social, which leverages ThredUp’s AI technologies to recommend specific styles, brands and products based on the shopper’s inspiration sourced and uploaded directly from social media. The new shopping feature is currently in beta in the ThredUp iOS app.
•Announced Next Generation Branded Resale Platform: ThredUp is taking an open source approach to branded resale by leveraging its core marketplace technology advancements and removing branded resale fees. Branded resale shops will be pairs free customized branded resale shops with its successful closet Clean Out program. By offering brands free access to its full technology suite, best-in-class operations, and customer acquisition tools, ThredUp is deepening its commitment to help brands launch successful, scalable and high impact resale initiatives.
•Published 13th Annual Resale Report: In partnership with GlobalData, ThredUp released the results of its 2025 Resale Report, revealing that the U.S. secondhand market grew 5 times faster than the broader retail clothing market in 2024 and is set to reach $74 billion by 2029. It also includes new insights about tariff and trade implications, how social commerce and AI are reshaping retail, and the government’s role in managing textile waste.
Financial Outlook
For the second quarter 2025, ThredUp expects:
•Revenue in the range of $72.5 million to $74.5 million, +10% year-over-year at the midpoint
•Gross margin in the range of 77.0% to 79.0%
•Adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 3.3%
For the full fiscal year 2025, ThredUp expects:
•Revenue in the range of $281.0 million to $291.0 million, +10% year-over-year at the midpoint
•Gross margin in the range of 77.0% to 79.0%
•Adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 4.0%
ThredUp is not providing a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking guidance of the Non-GAAP measure Adjusted EBITDA margin to net loss margin, the most directly comparable financial measures under GAAP because certain items are out of ThredUp’s control or cannot be reasonably predicted. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted to exclude, where applicable in a given period, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, gain on sale of non-marketable equity investment, severance and other reorganization costs, interest expense and provision for income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenue for the same period. Accordingly, a reconciliation for Adjusted EBITDA in order to calculate forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA margin is not available without unreasonable effort. However, for the second quarter of 2025 and full year 2025, Depreciation and amortization is expected to be $3.2 million and $12.6 million, respectively. In addition, for the second quarter of 2025 and full year 2025, Stock-based compensation expense is expected to be $3.7 million and $16.0 million, respectively. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could result in projected net loss being materially greater than is indicated by the currently estimated Adjusted EBITDA margin.

ThredUp uses these channels, as well as social media, to communicate with its investors, customers, and the public about the company, its offerings, and other issues.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Operating and Business Metrics
This press release and the accompanying tables contain non-GAAP financial measures, including: Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations margin, free cash flow and other operating and business metrics. In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe that these non-GAAP measures and other operating and business metrics, are useful in evaluating our operating performance and enhancing an overall understanding of our financial position. We use these measures and metrics to evaluate and assess our operating performance, and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when taken collectively with our GAAP results, may be helpful to investors because they provide consistency and comparability with past financial performance and assist in comparisons with other companies, some of which use similar non-GAAP financial information to supplement their GAAP results. Our non-GAAP measures and other operating and business metrics are presented for supplemental informational purposes only, should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and may be different from similarly-titled non-GAAP measures and other operating and business metrics used by other companies.
We encourage investors to review our results determined in accordance with GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations for more information.
A reconciliation is provided above for Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations to loss from continuing operations, the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP. We calculate Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations as loss from continuing operations adjusted to exclude, where applicable in a given period, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, severance and other reorganization costs, gain on sale of non-marketable equity investment, interest expense and provision for income taxes. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations margin represents Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations divided by Revenue for the same period.
A reconciliation is provided above for Non-GAAP free cash flow from continuing operations to Net cash provided by continuing operating activities, the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP. We calculate Non-GAAP free cash flow as Net cash provided by continuing operating activities adjusted to exclude Purchases of property and equipment.
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 and 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.
Orders are defined as the total number of orders placed by buyers across our marketplaces, including through our RaaS® clients, in a given period, net of cancellations.

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”, “looking forward,” “seeking” 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 in this financial supplement include, but are not limited to, guidance on financial results for the second quarter and full year of 2025; statements about future operating results, capital expenditures and other developments in our business and our long term growth; trends, consumer demand and growth in the online resale markets; the momentum of our business; our investments in technology and infrastructure, including with respect to AI technologies such as AI enabled search features and image search; the success and expansion of our RaaS® model and the timing and plans for future RaaS® clients; our ability to attract new Active Buyers, including our efforts to make resale more engaging and accessible to a wider audience through innovative shopping experiences; and our ability to successfully integrate and realize the benefits of our past or future strategic acquisitions, investments or divestitures and legal and regulatory developments.
More information on these risks and other potential factors that could affect the Company’s business, reputation, results of operations, financial condition, and stock price is included in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including in the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of the Company’s most recently filed periodic reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q and subsequent filings. The forward-looking statements in this financial supplement are based on information available to us as of the date hereof, and we disclaim any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, except as required by law. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing ThredUp’s views as of any date subsequent to the date of this financial supplement.
Additional information regarding these and other factors that could affect ThredUp's results is included in ThredUp’s SEC filings, which may be obtained by visiting our Investor Relations website at ir.thredup.com or the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Operating and Business Metrics
This financial supplement and the accompanying tables contain non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted EBITDA (loss) from continuing operations, Adjusted EBITDA (loss) from continuing operations margin, and Non-GAAP operating expenses. In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, are useful in evaluating our operating performance. We use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate and assess our operating performance and the operating leverage in our business, and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken collectively with our GAAP results, may be helpful to investors because they provide consistency and comparability with past financial performance and assist in comparisons with other companies, some of which use similar non-GAAP financial information to supplement their GAAP results. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only, should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and may be different from similarly-titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
A reconciliation is provided above for Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA (loss) from continuing operations to loss from continuing operations, the most directly comparable financial measures stated in accordance with GAAP. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA (loss) from continuing operations as loss from continuing operations adjusted to exclude, where applicable in a given period, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, provision (benefit) for income taxes, gain on sale of non-marketable equity investment, and severance and other reorganization costs.
A reconciliation is provided above for Non-GAAP operating expenses to Total operating expenses, the most directly comparable financial measures stated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP operating expenses are operating expenses adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense and severance and other reorganization costs.
A reconciliation is provided above for Non-GAAP free cash flow to Net cash provided by (used in) continuing operating activities, the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP. We calculate free cash flow as Net cash provided by (used in) continuing operating activities reduced by Purchases of property and equipment.
ThredUp is not providing a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking guidance of the non-GAAP measures above, including Adjusted EBITDA margin to net loss margin, the most directly comparable financial measure under GAAP, because certain items are out of ThredUp’s control or cannot be reasonably predicted. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted to exclude, where applicable in a given period, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, severance and other reorganization costs, interest expense, provision (benefit) for income taxes, gain on sale of non-marketable equity investment, and severance and other reorganization costs. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenue for the same period. Accordingly, a reconciliation for Adjusted EBITDA in order to calculate forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA margin is not available without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could result in projected net loss being materially greater than is indicated by the currently estimated Adjusted EBITDA margin.
We encourage investors to review our results determined in accordance with GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations for more information.
