Revolve Group Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Financial Results

Additional Fourth Quarter 2025 Metrics and Results Commentary 

• Trailing 12-month active customers increased by 94,000 during the fourth quarter of 2025, our highest quarterly growth in more than three years. Active customers increased 6% year-over-year to 2,841,000 as of December 31, 2025.
• Total net sales were $324.4 million, an increase of 10% year-over-year, and a sequential improvement from the 4% increase year-over-year reported in the third quarter of 2025.
• The slight decrease in average order value referenced above was primarily due to a shift in product mix, highlighted by an exceptional 43% increase in beauty sales year-over-year that have much lower order values, particularly for first time customers.
• Gross profit was $172.9 million, an increase of 12% year-over-year.
• Gross margin was 53.3%, a year-over-year increase of 78 basis points that was primarily driven by margin expansion in the FWRD segment.
• We achieved meaningful year-over-year efficiencies in our operating expenses, driven primarily by efficiencies in our marketing and general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales year-over-year compared to the prior-year period, partially offset by a slight increase in selling and distribution expenses as a percentage of net sales year-over-year.
• Net income was $18.6 million, a year-over-year increase of 58%, primarily due to strong growth in net sales, gross margin expansion and leverage on operating expenses year-over-year.
• Adjusted EBITDA was $26.3 million, a year-over-year increase of 44%.
• Diluted earnings per share (EPS) was $0.26, a year-over-year increase of 53%.

Results Since the End of Fourth Quarter 2025

During the first seven weeks of 2026 (January 1, 2026 to February 18, 2026), net sales increased by approximately 16% year-over-year compared to the same period in 2025. Of note, our prior-year revenue comparison in January 2025 was softer than normal due to the Los Angeles wildfires that temporarily impacted demand in our largest region of California and during which time we paused social media activity (our revenue trends subsequently normalized in February 2025).

2026 Business Outlook

Based on information available to us as of February 24, 2026, we are providing the following guidance for the first quarter and full year ending December 31, 2026.

Our outlook takes into account our assessment of the current macroeconomic environment and related cost pressures and potential headwinds to consumer spending, including, but not limited to, tariffs, inflationary pressures, supply chain disruptions and foreign currency volatility. Importantly, our outlook for gross margin is based on the current level of tariffs as of February 24, 2026 and our estimate of the impact of mitigating activities that we are currently undertaking or will undertake. However, actual gross margin will be particularly susceptible to variability based on the timing and level of tariffs that will ultimately be in effect during relevant periods, as well as the potential impact from mitigating activities that we are undertaking or may undertake.

• Net cash provided by operating activities was $59.4 million and free cash flow was $46.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, an increase of 123% and 157%, respectively. The increase in both cash flow measures primarily reflects higher net income and favorable movements in working capital year-over-year.

We repurchased 107,195 shares of our Class A common stock during the full year 2025, at an average cost of $18.86 per share. $55.6 million remained available under our $100 million stock repurchase program as of December 31, 2025.
• Balance sheet: Cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) as of December 31, 2025 grew to $303.2 million, an increase of $46.6 million, or 18%, from $256.6 million as of December 31, 2024. Our balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 remains debt free.
• Inventory as of December 31, 2025 was $251.8 million, an increase of $22.6 million, or 10%, from the inventory balance of $229.2 million as of December 31, 2024. The increase in inventory balance year-over-year is consistent with our 10% year-over-year growth in net sales during the fourth quarter of 2025.

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 the most directly comparable GAAP measures, please see the tables captioned "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" included at the end of this release. We encourage reviewing the reconciliation in conjunction with the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures 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.

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 income, net; taxes; and depreciation and amortization; adjusted to exclude the effects of equity-based compensation expense, certain transaction costs 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, and purchases of rental product, net of proceeds from the sale of rental product. 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. We view the number of active customers as a key indicator of our growth, the reach of our sites, the value proposition and consumer awareness of our brand, the continued use of our sites by our customers and their desire to purchase our products.

Total Orders Placed

We define total orders placed as the total number of orders placed by our customers, prior to product returns, across our platform in any given period. We view total orders placed as a key indicator of the velocity of our business and an indication of the desirability of our products and sites to our customers. Total orders placed, together with average order value, is an indicator of the net sales we expect to recognize in a given period.

Average Order Value

We define average order value as the sum of the total gross sales from our sites in a given period, prior to product returns, divided by the total orders placed in that period. We believe our high average order value demonstrates the premium nature of our product assortment. Average order value varies depending on the site through which we sell merchandise, the mix of product categories sold, the number of units in each order, the percentage of sales at full price, and for sales at less than full price, the level of markdowns.
