Commitments and Contingencies

7.Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation and Other

From time to time, the Company may be a party to litigation and subject to claims incurred in the ordinary course of business, including personal injury and indemnification claims, labor and employment claims, threatened claims, breach of contract claims, and other matters. The Company accrues a liability when management believes information available prior to the issuance of the consolidated financial statements indicates it is probable a loss has been incurred as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company adjusts its accruals to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case. Legal costs are expensed as incurred. Although the results of litigation and claims are inherently unpredictable, management concluded that it was not probable that it had incurred a material loss during the periods presented related to such loss contingencies. Therefore, the Company has not recorded a reserve for any contingencies.

During the normal course of business, the Company may be a party to claims that are not covered by insurance. While the ultimate liability, if any, arising from these claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not believe that the resolution of any such claims would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, the Company was not aware of any currently pending legal matters or claims, individually or in the aggregate, that are expected to have a material adverse impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Indemnification

The Company also maintains director and officer insurance, which may cover certain liabilities arising from its obligation to indemnify the Company’s directors. To date, the Company has not incurred any material costs and has not accrued any liabilities in the consolidated financial statements as a result of these provisions.

Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Fiscal Year

The Company’s fiscal year consists of a 52-week or 53-week period ending on the Sunday nearest December 31. The fiscal years ending December 31, 2023 (“2023”), ended January 1, 2023 (“2022) and ended January 2, 2022 (“2021”) consisted of 52-weeks.

The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, after elimination of all intercompany balances and transactions. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The significant estimates and assumptions made by management relate to sales return reserves and related assets for recovery, lease right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities, income tax valuation allowance and fair value of equity awards. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Company adjusts such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. Changes in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could materially differ from those estimates and assumptions.

Segment Reporting

The Company manages its business on the basis of one operating and reportable segment, retail. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its chief executive officer (“CEO”). All long-lived assets are located in the United States and substantially all revenue is attributable to customers based in the United States. International sales are not significant.

Concentration of Credit Risks

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. Such amounts may exceed federally insured limits. The Company reduces credit risk by depositing its cash with major credit-worthy financial institutions within the United States. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses on its cash deposits. As of December 31, 2023, no single customer represented greater than 10%

of the Company’s accounts receivable balance. As of January 1, 2023, a single wholesale customer represented 15% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance. No single customer accounted for greater than 10% of the Company’s net revenue during 2023, 2022 and 2021.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable consist primarily of receivables from credit card processing agencies and wholesale customers. Based on historical collections from these agencies and wholesale customers, no allowance for doubtful accounts was deemed necessary as of December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023.

Inventory

Inventory consists of finished goods, which are recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined using the first-in-first-out method. The cost of inventory consists of merchandise costs and inbound freight costs. Inventory levels are reviewed to identify slow-moving merchandise, and promotions and markdowns are used to clear merchandise. In the period in which the Company determines estimated selling price, less costs to sell, is below cost, or identifies excess, obsolete, or unsalable items, the Company writes its inventory down to its net realizable value.

Property and Equipment, net

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which range from 3 to 9 years. Improvements that extend the life of a specific asset are capitalized, while normal maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. When assets are sold or otherwise retired, their cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the balance sheet with any resulting gain or loss reflected in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Goodwill and Tradename

Goodwill is stated at the excess of the acquisition price over the fair value of net assets acquired in a purchase acquisition and is not amortized. Goodwill arose from the LP’s purchase of 100% of the outstanding common stock of Lulus LLC on July 25, 2014 and the Company has one reporting unit. The Company’s tradename is an indefinite-lived intangible asset and is not amortized. The Company reviews its goodwill and tradename for impairment at least annually (on the first day of the fourth quarter) or more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may be impaired.

When testing goodwill for impairment, the Company first performs an assessment of qualitative factors (“Step 0 Test”). The qualitative assessment includes assessing the totality of relevant events and circumstances that affect the fair value or carrying value of the reporting unit. These events and circumstances include macroeconomic conditions, industry and competitive environment conditions, overall financial performance, reporting unit specific events and market considerations. The Company also considers recent valuations of the reporting unit, including the magnitude of the difference between the most recent fair value estimate and the carrying value, as well as both positive and adverse events and circumstances, and the extent to which each of the events and circumstances identified may affect the comparison of a reporting unit’s fair value with its carrying value. If the qualitative assessment results in a conclusion that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds the carrying value, then no further testing is performed for that reporting unit. The Company performed the qualitative assessment of its goodwill and determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of its reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the reporting unit. As a result, there was no goodwill impairment during 2023, 2022 and 2021. There was no accumulated impairment of goodwill as of December 31, 2023, and January 1, 2023.

When testing the tradename for impairment, the Company first performs an assessment of qualitative factors. If qualitative factors indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the tradename is less than its carrying amount, the Company tests the tradename for impairment at the asset level. The Company determines the fair value of the tradename and compares it to the carrying value. If the carrying value of the tradename exceeds the fair value, the Company recognizes an impairment loss in an amount equal to the excess. The Company performed the qualitative assessment of its tradename and determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the tradename exceeds the carrying value of the reporting unit. There were no additions to, disposals of, or impairments of the tradename during 2023, 2022 and 2021. There was no accumulated impairment of the tradename as of December 31, 2023, and January 1, 2023.

Intangible Assets, net

Intangible assets, net consists of capitalized internal-use software development, which is amortized over a 3-year period. The Company capitalizes certain costs in connection with obtaining or developing software for internal use. Additionally, the Company capitalizes qualifying costs incurred for upgrades and enhancements that result in additional functionality to existing software. Amortization of such costs begins when the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Costs related to design or maintenance are expensed as incurred. Intangible asset amortization expense was $1.9 million, $1.7 million and $1.6 million during 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets. The Company reviews intangible assets for impairment under the long-lived asset model described below. No impairment of intangible assets was recorded during the years presented.

Long-Lived Asset Impairment

The Company evaluates long-lived assets, including lease right-of-use assets, for impairment periodically whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. In evaluating long-lived assets for recoverability, the Company uses its best estimate of future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and eventual disposition. To the extent that projected undiscounted future net cash flows attributable to the asset are less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the difference between the carrying value of such asset and its estimated fair value. There was no impairment recorded during the years presented.

Leases

The Company changed its method of accounting for leases as of January 3, 2022 due to the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 842, Leases (“ASC 842”). Contracts that have been determined to convey the right to use an identified asset are evaluated for classification as an operating or finance lease. For the Company’s operating and finance leases, the Company records a lease liability based on the present value of the lease payments at lease inception. The present value of lease payments is determined by using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate is readily determinable; otherwise, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”). The determination of the IBR requires judgment and is primarily based on publicly-available information for companies within similar industries and with similar credit profiles. We adjust the rate for the impact of collateralization, the lease term and other specific terms included in each lease arrangement. The IBR is determined at the lease commencement and is subsequently reassessed upon a modification to the lease arrangement. The right-of-use asset is recorded based on the corresponding lease liability at lease inception, adjusted for payments made to the lessor at or before the commencement date, initial direct costs incurred and any tenant incentives allowed for under the lease. The Company does not include optional renewal terms or early termination provisions unless the Company is reasonably certain such options would be exercised at the inception of the lease. Lease right-of-use assets, current portion of lease liabilities, and lease liabilities, net of current portion are included on the consolidated balance sheets.

Fixed lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis, unless the right-of-use assets have been impaired, over the reasonably assured lease term based on the total lease payments and is included in operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Fixed and variable lease expense on operating leases is recognized within operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Finance lease expenses are recognized on a straight-line basis. Fixed and variable expenses are captured within interest expense and depreciation expense, which has components within general and administrative expenses and cost of revenue. The Company’s non-lease components are primarily related to maintenance, insurance and taxes, which varies based on future outcomes and is thus recognized in lease expense when incurred.

Revenue Recognition

The Company generates revenue primarily from the sale of merchandise products directly to end customers. The sale of products is a distinct performance obligation, and revenue is recognized at a point in time when control of the promised product is transferred to customers, which the Company determined occurs upon shipment based on its evaluation of the related shipping terms. Revenue is recognized in an amount that reflects the transaction price consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products. The Company’s payment terms are typically at the time of order processing and shipment.

The Company elected to exclude from revenue taxes assessed by governmental authorities, including value-added and other sales-related taxes, that are imposed on and concurrent with revenue-producing activities. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient, relative to e-commerce sales, which allows an entity to account for shipping and handling as fulfillment activities, and not a separate performance obligation. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue for only one performance obligation, the sale of the product, at shipping point (when the customer gains control). Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight are accounted for as fulfillment costs and are included in cost of goods sold. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient to expense costs as incurred for incremental costs to obtain a contract when the amortization period would have been one year or less.

Revenue from merchandise product sales is reported net of sales returns, which includes an estimate of future returns based on historical return rates, with a corresponding reduction to cost of sales. There is judgment in utilizing historical trends for estimating future returns. The Company’s refund liability for sales returns is included in the returns reserve on its consolidated balance sheets and represents the expected value of the refund that will be due to the Company’s customers. The Company also has a corresponding asset for recovery that represents the expected net realizable value of the merchandise inventory to be returned.

The Company sells stored-value gift cards to customers and offers merchandise credit stored-value cards for certain returns. Such stored-value cards do not have an expiration date. The Company recognizes revenue from stored-value cards when the card is redeemed by the customer. The Company has determined that sufficient evidence exists to support an estimate for stored-value card breakage. Subject to requirements to remit balances to governmental agencies, breakage is recognized as revenue in proportion to the pattern of rights exercised by the customer, which is substantially within thirty-six months from the date of issuance. The amount of breakage recognized in revenue during 2023, 2022 and 2021 was not material.

The Company has two types of contractual liabilities: (i) cash collections from its customers prior to delivery of products purchased (“deferred revenue”), which are initially recorded within accrued expenses and recognized as revenue when the products are shipped, (ii) unredeemed gift cards and online store credits, which are initially recorded as a stored-value card liability and are recognized as revenue in the period they are redeemed.

The following table summarizes the significant changes in the contract liabilities balances during 2023, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands):


	Deferred		Stored-Value
	Revenue		Cards
Balance as of January 3, 2021	$	792	$	4,973

Increase due to cash received, excluding amounts recognized as revenue during the period		50		6,387
Balance as of December 31, 2023	$	50	$	13,142

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue consists of the product costs of merchandise sold to customers; shipping and handling costs including all inbound, outbound, and return shipping expenses; rent, insurance, business property tax, utilities, depreciation and amortization, and repairs and maintenance related to the Company’s distribution facilities; and charges related to inventory shrinkage, damages and the allowance for excess or obsolete inventory.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of payroll and benefits costs, including equity-based compensation for the Company’s employees involved in general corporate functions including finance, merchandising, marketing, and technology, as well as costs associated with the use by these functions of facilities and equipment, including depreciation and amortization, rent and other occupancy expenses.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of customer service, payment processing fees, advertising, targeted online performance marketing and search engine optimization costs. Selling and marketing expenses also include spend on brand marketing channels, including cash and free clothing compensation to influencers, events and other forms of online and offline marketing related to growing and retaining the customer base. Advertising costs included in selling and marketing expenses were $58.5 million, $64.4 million, and $53.6 million in 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Equity-Based Compensation

The Company grants stock-based awards to certain employees, officers, directors, and other nonemployee service providers. Equity-based compensation is measured at the grant date or modification date for all equity-based awards made to employees and nonemployees based on the estimated fair value of the awards. Equity-based compensation expense is

recognized on a straight-line basis over the period the employee or non-employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which is generally the vesting period. The Company classifies equity-based compensation expense as general and administrative expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures by reducing the equity-based compensation expense in the same period as the forfeitures occur.

The fair value of grants of restricted stock or restricted stock units (“RSUs”) is based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock underlying the award on the grant date or modification date. For stock option awards, the Company applies the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value. The model utilizes the estimated per share fair value of the Company’s underlying common stock at the grant date, the expected or contractual term of the option, the expected stock price volatility, risk-free interest rates, and the expected dividend yield of the common stock.

The Company bases its estimate of expected volatility on the historical volatility of comparable companies from a representative peer group selected based on industry, financial, and market capitalization data. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury implied yield at the date of grant. The Company has elected to use the “simplified method” to determine the expected term which is the midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term because it has insufficient history upon which to base an assumption about the term; the Company believes the simplified method approximates a term if it were to be based on expected life. The expected dividend yield is 0.0% as the Company has not paid and does not anticipate paying dividends on its common stock.

Determining the grant date fair value of options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires management to make assumptions and judgments. These estimates involve inherent uncertainties and, if different assumptions had been used, stock-based compensation expense could have been materially different from the amounts recorded.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. The Company combined equity-based compensation expense and equity-based compensation expense related to CEO special compensation awards into one line item, equity-based compensation expense, in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method, under which Deferred Tax Assets (“DTA”) and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in effect for the years in which they are expected to be realized or settled.

The Company believes that it is more likely than not that forecasted income, together with future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and results of recent operations, will be sufficient to fully recover the deferred tax assets. In the event that the Company determines all or part of the net deferred tax assets are not realizable in the future, the Company would record a valuation allowance.

The Company recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders

The Company calculates basic and diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders in conformity with the two-class method required for participating securities as the application of the if converted method is not more dilutive. The two-class method requires income (loss) available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between common stock and participating securities based upon their respective rights to receive dividends as if all income for the period had been distributed.

The Company considers its redeemable preferred stock and convertible preferred stock to be participating securities. In accordance with the two-class method, net income (loss) is adjusted for earnings allocated to these participating securities and the related number of outstanding shares of the participating securities, which include contractual participation rights in undistributed earnings, have been excluded from the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders. The redeemable preferred stock and convertible preferred stock contractually entitle the holders of such shares to participate in dividends but do not contractually require the holders of such shares to participate in the Company’s losses. As such, where applicable, net losses were not allocated to these securities.

Basic net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders is computed using net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders represents net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including the effects of any dilutive securities outstanding.

The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted weighted average shares used to compute net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders:


	2023	2022	2021
Weighted average shares used to compute net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders – Basic	39,879,121	38,583,854	20,229,675
Dilutive securities:
Unvested restricted stock	-	55,127	-
Unvested RSUs	-	139,064	-
Special compensation awards	-	67,547	-
Employee Stock Purchase Plan	-	7,801	-
Weighted average shares used to compute net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders – Diluted	39,879,121	38,853,393	20,229,675

The following securities were excluded from the computation of diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders for the fiscal years presented because including them would have been anti-dilutive (on an as-converted basis):


	2023	2022	2021
Stock options	161,397	322,793	322,793
Unvested restricted stock	23,379	78,303	381,612

CEO award share settlement	—	—	417,828
Total	5,878,741	1,305,172	1,122,233

Redeemable Preferred Stock

The Company has elected to record its redeemable preferred stock at the greater of its redemption value or the issuance date fair value, net of issuance costs, as it is probable of becoming redeemable due to the passage of time. Any change to the carrying value of redeemable preferred stock recognized in each period is recorded to additional paid-in capital, or in the absence of additional paid-in capital, recorded to accumulated deficit.

The issuance date fair value of the redeemable preferred stock shares purchased by entities related to current employees, board members, and service providers was higher than the consideration paid and such excess was recorded as equity-based compensation. The excess of the fair value over consideration paid for redeemable preferred stock shares purchased by an existing convertible preferred stockholder was accounted for as a deemed dividend and recorded in additional paid-in capital.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as a change in equity of a business enterprise during a period, resulting from transactions from non-owner sources. To date, the Company has not had any transactions that are required to be reported in comprehensive income (loss) other than the net income (loss) incurred from operations. Thus, comprehensive income (loss) is the same as net income (loss) for the periods presented.

Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

The Company is an emerging growth company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that it (i) is no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, these consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, as amended, which amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available-for-sale debt securities from an incurred loss methodology to an expected loss methodology. For assets held at amortized cost basis, the guidance eliminates the probable

initial recognition threshold and instead requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the assets to present the net amount expected to be collected. For available-for-sale debt securities, credit losses are recorded through an allowance for credit losses, rather than a write-down, limited to the amount by which fair value is below amortized cost. Additional disclosures about significant estimates and credit quality are also required. The guidance is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company adopted this guidance on January 2, 2023, and it did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements or disclosure requirements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which updates reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and information used to assess segment performance. ASU 2023-07 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the effects of this pronouncement on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which amends existing income tax disclosure guidance, primarily requiring more detailed disclosure for income taxes paid and the effective tax rate reconciliation. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted and can be applied on either a prospective or retroactive basis. We are currently evaluating this pronouncement to determine its impact on our income tax disclosures.

Organization and Business

Pursuant to a reorganization, Lulu’s Fashion Lounge Holdings, Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“Lulus”, “we”, “our”, or the “Company”), was formed on August 25, 2017 as a holding company and its primary asset is an indirect membership interest in Lulu’s Fashion Lounge, LLC (“Lulus LLC”). Prior to the Company’s initial public offering, the Company was majority-owned by Lulu’s Holdings, L.P. (the “LP”). In connection with the Company’s initial public offering, the LP was liquidated.

Lulus LLC was founded in 1996, starting as a vintage boutique in Chico, CA that began selling online in 2005 and transitioned to a purely online business in 2008. The LP was formed in 2014 as a holding company and purchased 100% of Lulus LLC’s outstanding common stock in 2014. The Company, through Lulus LLC, is a customer-driven, digitally-native, attainable luxury fashion brand for women, offering modern, unapologetically feminine designs at accessible prices for all of life’s fashionable moments based in Chico, CA.

Initial Public Offering

On November 10, 2021, the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 relating to its initial public offering (“IPO”) was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the shares of its common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Global Market on November 11, 2021. The IPO closed on November 15, 2021, pursuant to which the Company issued and sold 5,750,000 shares of its common stock at a public offering price of $16.00 per share. On November 15, 2021, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $82.0 million from the IPO, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of approximately $6.1 million and other issuance costs of approximately $3.9 million. Immediately prior to the completion of the IPO, the Company filed an amended and restated certificate of incorporation, which authorized a total of 250,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.001 par value per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share. Immediately prior to the completion of the IPO, all shares of the Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding were converted into 15,000,000 shares of common stock. Additionally, 215,702 shares of common stock were issued to the LP immediately prior to the completion of the IPO. All shares of the Series B Preferred Stock and the Series B-1 Preferred Stock were redeemed and extinguished for a total payment of approximately $17.9 million on November 15, 2021.

Impact of Macroeconomic Trends on Business

Changing macroeconomic factors, including inflation, interest rates, student loan repayment resumption, as well as world events, such as the war in Israel and Russia’s war against Ukraine, and overall consumer confidence with respect to current and future economic conditions have impacted our sales in fiscal 2023 as discretionary consumer spending levels and shopping behavior fluctuate with these factors. During fiscal 2023, we responded to these factors, as needed, by taking appropriate pricing, promotional and other actions to stimulate customer demand. These factors may continue to have an impact on our business, results of operations, our growth and financial condition.

Liquidity

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had total cash and cash equivalents of $2.5 million and amounts due under the revolving line of credit of $8.0 million.

In November 2021 the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “2021 Credit Agreement”) to provide a Revolving Facility (the “2021 Revolving Facility”) that provides for borrowings up to $50.0 million. The 2021 Credit Agreement contains various financial covenants and matures on November 15, 2024 as described in Note 5, Debt.

The Company is evaluating sources of debt financing. However, the Company believes the cash on hand and cash provided by operations in conjunction with certain cash conservation measures to be taken as necessary, including adjustments to marketing and other variable and capital spend, will enable the Company to meet its obligations as they become due within one year. The consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments relating to the outcome of this uncertainty.

Omnibus Equity Plan and Employee Stock Purchase Plan

In connection with the closing of the IPO, the Company adopted the Omnibus Equity Plan and the ESPP.

Under the Omnibus Equity Plan, incentive awards may be granted to employees, directors, and consultants of the Company. The Company initially reserved 3,719,000 shares of common stock for future issuance under the Omnibus Equity Plan, including any shares subject to awards under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Equity Plan”) that are forfeited or lapse unexercised. The number of shares reserved for issuance under the Omnibus Equity Plan will automatically increase on the first day of each fiscal year, starting in 2022 and continuing through 2031, by a number of shares equal to (a) 4% of the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding year or (b) such smaller number of shares as determined by the Company’s Board of directors.

Under the ESPP, the Company initially reserved 743,803 shares of common stock for future issuance. The number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance will automatically increase on the first day of each fiscal year beginning in 2022 and ending in 2031, by a number of shares equal to (a) 1% of the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year or (b) such smaller number of shares as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors.

On April 1, 2022, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Form S-8”) with the SEC for the purpose of registering an additional 5,921,056 shares of the Company’s common stock, inclusive of 1,536,845 and 384,211 shares associated with automatic increases that occurred on January 3, 2022 under the Omnibus Equity Plan and ESPP, respectively. This registration also included 3,200,000 and 800,000 shares for the Omnibus Equity

Plan and the ESPP, respectively, representing two years’ worth of estimated future automatic increases in availability for these plans.

On March 8, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the Fiscal 2023 Bonus Plan (“2023 Bonus Plan”) that will grant RSUs, instead of a typical cash bonus, to eligible employees. For the year ended December 31, 2023, equity-based compensation expense for the 2023 Bonus Plan is $0.4 million. As of December 31, 2023, the unrecognized equity-based compensation expense for 2023 Bonus Plan is $0.2 million and will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.29 years.

On June 29, 2023, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-8 with the SEC for the purpose of registering an additional 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock under the Omnibus Equity Plan corresponding to the increase in shares approved by stockholders at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had 1,901,328 and 1,420,331 shares available for issuance under the Omnibus Equity Plan and ESPP, respectively. The compensation committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “compensation committee”) administers the Omnibus Equity Plan and determines to whom awards will be granted, the exercise price of any options, the rates at which awards vest and the other terms and conditions of the awards granted under the Omnibus Equity Plan. The compensation committee may or may not issue the full number of shares that are reserved for issuance.

The Company’s initial ESPP offering period commenced on August 26, 2022. The ESPP consists of consecutive, overlapping 12-month offering periods that begin on each August 26 and February 26 during the term of the ESPP, and end on each August 25 and February 25 occurring 12 months later, as applicable. Each offering period is comprised of two consecutive six-month purchase periods that begin on each August 26 and February 26 within each offering period and end on each February 25 and August 25, respectively, thereafter. The duration and timing of offering periods and purchase periods may be changed by the Company’s Board of Directors or compensation committee at any time. The ESPP allows participants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a 15 percent discount from the lower of the Company’s stock price on (i) the first day of the offering period or on (ii) the last day of the purchase period and includes a rollover mechanism for the purchase price if the stock price on the purchase date is less than the stock price on the offering date. The ESPP also allows participants to reduce their percentage election once during the offering period, but they cannot increase their election until the next offering period.

The Company recognizes equity-based compensation expense related to shares issued pursuant to the ESPP on a graded vesting approach over each offering period. During 2023, equity-based compensation expense related to the ESPP was $0.2 million.

The Company used the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of the purchase rights under the ESPP. During 2023, the Company utilized the following assumptions:


Expected term (in years)		0.50 to 1.00
Expected volatility		93.84 to 99.95	%
Risk-free interest rate		5.44 to 5.61	%
Dividend yield		-
Weighted average fair value per share of ESPP awards granted	$	0.60 to 0.98

2021 Equity Plan

During April 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the 2021 Equity Plan. The 2021 Equity Plan provides for the issuance of incentive stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based and cash-based awards to the Company’s employees, directors, and consultants. The maximum aggregate number of shares reserved for

issuance under the 2021 Equity Plan was 925,000 shares. The Company’s Board of Directors administers the 2021 Equity Plan. The options outstanding under the 2021 Equity Plan expire ten years from the date of grant. The Company issues new common shares to satisfy stock option exercises. In connection with the closing of the IPO, no further awards will be granted under the 2021 Equity Plan.

CEO Stock Options and Special Compensation Awards

In April 2021, the Company entered into an Employment Agreement (“McCreight IPO Employment Agreement”) with the former CEO, David McCreight and granted stock options under the 2021 Equity Plan to purchase 322,793 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $11.35 per share, which vest based on service and performance conditions. 275,133 of these stock options have only service vesting conditions, and 47,660 of these stock options have both service and performance vesting conditions. In addition, a portion of these stock options were subject to accelerated vesting conditions upon the occurrence of certain future events, which were satisfied upon the closing of the IPO. As previously disclosed on a Form 8-K filed on February 13, 2023 (the “February 13 8-K”), Mr. McCreight voluntarily forfeited 161,396 unvested stock options of the Company. During 2023, the forfeiture of 161,396 unvested stock resulted in immediate acceleration of the remaining $1.2 million of compensation expense which was recorded to general and administrative expense. As previously disclosed in the February 13 8-K, the Company and David McCreight also entered into the First Amendment to Lulu’s Fashion Lounge Holdings, Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan Stock Option Agreement that extends the post-termination exercise period of 161,397 vested stock options from 90 days to three (3) years from a termination of service other than for cause, death or disability.

Under the McCreight IPO Employment Agreement and subject to ongoing employment, and in light of the closing of the IPO, the former CEO received two bonuses which were settled in fully-vested shares of the Company’s common stock equal to $3.0 million each ($6.0 million in aggregate) on March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2023. The Company initially concluded that the two bonuses were subject to the guidance within ASC 718 and were liability-classified upon issuance. Upon the completion of the IPO, the two bonuses became equity-classified as they no longer met the criteria for liability classification. The Company recorded the equity-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods through March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2023. The Company recorded equity-based compensation expense related to the two bonuses of $0.4 million and $2.3 million during 2023 and 2022, respectively. During 2023 and 2022, the Company issued 208,914 and 208,914 fully-vested shares, respectively, upon satisfaction of the service performed through March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, respectively.

There were no options granted during 2023 and 2022. There were 322,793 options granted during 2021 with a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $16.44 per share.

The following table presents the range of assumptions used to estimate the fair value of options granted during 2021:


Fair value of common stock	$	25.86
Expected term (in years)		6.48
Expected volatility		50.62	%
Risk-free rate		1.17	%
Dividend yield		0	%

Fair Value of Common Stock – Given the absence of a public market prior to the IPO, the Board of Directors, with the assistance of a third-party valuation specialist, determined the fair value of the Company’s common stock at the time of the grant of stock options by considering a number of objective and subjective factors, including the Company’s actual operating and financial performance, market conditions and performance of comparable publicly-traded companies, developments and milestones in the Company, the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event and transactions involving the Company’s common stock, among other factors. The fair value of the underlying common stock was determined by the Board of directors. The Company has not granted any stock options subsequent to the IPO.

Risk-Free Interest Rate - The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time the options are granted for zero coupon U.S. Treasury notes with maturities approximately equal to the expected term of the option.

Expected Term - The expected term is based upon the Company’s consideration of the historical life of options, the vesting period of the option granted, and the contractual period of the option granted. The Company has a limited history of granting options, accordingly, the expected life was calculated using the simplified method.

Volatility - As the Company was not publicly traded prior to the IPO, the expected volatility for the Company’s stock options was determined by using an average of historical volatilities of selected industry peers deemed to be comparable to the Company’s business corresponding to the expected term of the awards.

Dividend Yield - The expected dividend rate is zero as the Company currently has no history or expectation of declaring dividends on its common stock.

During 2023 and 2022, equity-based compensation expense of $1.2 million and $1.4 million, respectively, was recorded to general and administrative expense related to the stock options. As of December 31, 2023, there is zero unrecognized compensation cost related to the stock options.

Restricted Stock and RSUs

Immediately before the completion of the IPO, the LP was liquidated and the unit holders of the LP received shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for their units of the LP. The Class P unit holders (see below) received 1,964,103 shares of common stock, comprised of 1,536,304 shares of vested common stock and 427,799 shares of unvested restricted stock. Any such shares of restricted stock received in respect of unvested Class P units of the LP are subject to vesting and a risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the corresponding Class P units. The Company recorded equity-based compensation expense of $0.7 million and $2.6 million during 2023 and 2022, respectively, related to the exchanged restricted stock. As of December 31, 2023, the unrecognized equity-based compensation expense for all restricted stock is $0.4 million and will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.83 years.

The following table summarizes the rollforward of unvested restricted stock in 2023:


	Unvested	Weighted-
	Restricted	Average Fair
	Stock	Value per Share
Balance at January 1, 2023	78,303	$	5.38
Restricted stock granted	—		—
Restricted stock vested	(50,294)		4.47
Restricted stock forfeited	(4,630)		4.27
Balance at December 31, 2023	23,379	$	4.54

The fair value of restricted stock vested during 2023 was $0.1 million.

During 2023, the Company entered into employment agreements with Crystal Landsem, the Chief Executive Officer, (the “CEO Employment Agreement”) and Tiffany Smith, the Chief Financial Officer, (the “CFO Employment Agreement”), under which 1,811,572 and 161,088 RSUs were granted, respectively. Under the CEO Employment Agreement, Ms. Landsem received a grant of 1,811,572 RSUs, which vest in quarterly installments beginning on June 30, 2023 through December 31, 2026 and are subject to continued service requirements. Under the CFO Employment Agreement, Ms. Smith received 161,088 RSUs, granted in two parts, with 118,025 and 43,063 RSUs granted on March 17, 2023 and April 30, 2023, respectively, which in combination will vest in three equal installments on March 8, 2024, March 7, 2025 and March 6, 2026, and are subject to continued service requirements. On March 5, 2023, Mr. McCreight received a grant of 25,873 RSUs pursuant to the McCreight IPO Employment Agreement. These RSUs vest in 12 equal installments from April 30, 2023 through March 31, 2024, and are subject to continued service requirements. In addition, under Mr. McCreight’s employment agreement for his Executive Chairman role, entered into on November 11, 2022 (the “Executive Chairman Employment Agreement”), Mr. McCreight was entitled to receive a grant of RSUs equivalent to $2 million. The Company initially concluded that the award was subject to the guidance within ASC 718 and was liability-classified upon issuance. On March 17, 2023, the number of RSUs associated with the award became determinable, and the award became equity-classified as it no longer met the criteria for liability classification. Mr. McCreight’s 836,820 RSUs were granted in two parts, with 613,116 RSUs granted on March 17, 2023 and 223,704 RSUs granted on April 30, 2023, the combination of which vest in equal, quarterly installments on the date immediately following the last day of each calendar quarter, starting April 1, 2023, and are subject to continued service requirements.

During the year ended 2023, the Company granted 3,032,824 RSUs (inclusive of the aforementioned RSU grants to Ms. Landsem and Ms. Smith), to certain executives and employees which vest over a three-year service period, and 1,270,290 RSUs (inclusive of the aforementioned RSU grants to the Executive Chairman) to certain directors which are subject to various vesting schedules as set forth in the Company’s Non-Employee Director Compensation Program and the Executive Chairman Employment Agreement. The Company recognized equity-based compensation expense of $12.4 million and $8.8 million during the year ended 2023 and 2022, respectively, related to the RSUs. As of December 31, 2023, the unrecognized equity-based compensation expense is $8.9 million and will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.43 years.

The following table summarizes the rollforward of unvested RSUs in 2023:


		Weighted-
	Unvested	Average Fair
	RSUs	Value per Share
Balance at January 1, 2023	1,336,674	$	8.94
RSUs granted	4,303,114		2.66
RSUs vested	(1,932,500)		5.93
RSUs forfeited	(138,882)		5.16
Balance at December 31, 2023	3,568,406	$	3.14

The fair value of RSUs vested during 2023 was $4.4 million.

The Company recognized a tax benefit of $1.5 million and $0.8 million related to equity-based compensation expense in 2023 and 2022, respectively. There was no income tax benefit recognized related to equity-based compensation expense in 2021.

Under the CEO Employment Agreement, Ms. Landsem received a grant of 1,811,571 PSUs on March 5, 2023 which vest in three equal annual installments of 603,857 PSUs subject to the achievement of trailing ten day volume-weighted average price targets of the Company’s common stock and her continued employment on the vesting dates. The Company recognized equity-based compensation expense of $2.1 million during 2023, related to the PSUs. As of December 31, 2023, the unrecognized equity-based compensation expense is $2.6 million and will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.18 years.

The following table summarizes the rollforward of unvested PSUs during 2023:


		Weighted-

	PSUs	Value per Share

Balance at December 31, 2023	1,811,571	$	2.65

Class P Units

384,522 of the outstanding Class P units included both a service condition and a performance condition, while the remainder of the Class P units only included a service condition. The performance-based vesting condition was satisfied upon completion of the IPO. Equity-based compensation expense of $1.9 million related to the Class P units was recorded to general and administrative expense in the statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) during 2021.

During 2021, the LP modified the vesting schedule related to 763,178 outstanding Class P units for two senior executives to accelerate vesting if the two senior executives perform service after the completion of the IPO over the subsequent 12-month period. The Company concluded that the amendment to the Class P units was a modification under ASC 718 and there was no incremental equity-based compensation expense to recognize. With the completion of the

Company’s IPO, the remaining unrecognized expense associated with the restricted stock, received in exchange at the IPO for the modified Class P units, was recognized over the subsequent 12-month period through November 2022.

Class P - Distributions

Distributions payable to former Class P unit holders (“FCPUs”) triggered upon the completion of the Company’s 2021 IPO were determined to be settled in 2022 as a result of agreements reached with the FCPUs, and were recorded as an increase to additional paid-in capital. The agreements provided for contingent payments to the FCPUs of up to $0.6 million if certain conditions were met, which were recorded as equity-based compensation expense and accrued expenses and other current liabilities in 2022 which was subsequently reversed during 2022, when the timeframe for the payment conditions expired.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net effects of (a) temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amount used for income tax purposes, and (b) operating losses and tax credit carryforwards.

The following table presents the significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities (in thousands) as of:

Net deferred tax assets	$	3,802	$	1,263

Net deferred tax assets are included in other noncurrent assets on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023.

The tax benefit of net operating losses, temporary differences and credit carryforwards is required to be recorded as an asset to the extent that management assesses the realization is “more likely than not.” Realization of the future tax benefit is dependent on the Company’s ability to generate sufficient taxable income within the carryforward period. A valuation allowance is recognized if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Management must analyze all available positive and negative evidence regarding realization of the deferred tax assets and make an assessment of the likelihood of sufficient future taxable income. The Company has not provided a valuation allowance on our federal and state deferred tax assets as we have determined that it its more-likely-than-not that they are realizable based upon the available positive evidence such as cumulative taxable income and estimated future taxable income.

As of December 31, 2023, we had approximately $3.8 million in net DTAs. These DTAs include approximately $0.6 million related to net operating loss carryforwards that can be used to offset taxable income in future periods and reduce our income taxes payable in those future periods. Some of these net operating loss carryforwards will expire if they are not used within certain periods. At this time, based on evidence currently available, we consider it more likely than not that we will have sufficient taxable income in the future that will allow us to realize the DTAs; however, failure to generate sufficient taxable income could result in some or all DTAs not being utilized in the future. If we are unable to generate sufficient future taxable income, a valuation allowance to reduce our DTAs may be required which would materially

increase our expenses in the period the allowance is recognized and materially adversely affect our results of operations and statement of financial conditions.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company has federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of $1.9 million and $2.8 million, respectively. The federal net operating loss can be carried forward indefinitely and the state net operating loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2038 if unused. The Company also has a state tax credit carryforward of an immaterial amount. The state tax credits will begin to expire in 2026 if unused. Lastly, the Company currently has $8.3 million of a Federal disallowed interest expense carryforward under Section 163(j) of the Internal Revenue Code, which can be carried forward indefinitely.

Utilization of our net operating loss carryforwards, interest expense carryforwards, and tax credits may be subject to an annual limitation due to ownership changes that may have occurred or that could occur in the future, as required by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions. These ownership change limitations may limit the amount of net operating loss carryforwards or interest expense carryforwards and tax credits that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income and tax, respectively.

As of December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, the Company’s uncertain tax positions and related accrued interest and penalties were not material. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the financial statements as a component of income tax expense. The Company does not anticipate that the uncertain tax positions balance as of December 31, 2023 will change significantly over the next 12 months.

The Company’s federal income tax returns are not subject to examination by taxing authorities for fiscal years before 2020. The Company’s California income tax returns are not subject to examinations by taxing authorities for fiscal years before 2016.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for income taxes. Disclosures may include net deferred tax liability or asset recognized in an enterprise's statement of financial position, net change during the year in the total valuation allowance, approximate tax effect of each type of temporary difference and carryforward that gives rise to a significant portion of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets, utilization of a tax carryback, and tax uncertainties information.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

3.Fair Value Measurements

The Company discloses and recognizes the fair value of its assets and liabilities using a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1—Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

Level 2—Inputs are observable, unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities that are supported by little or no market data.

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses, revolving line of credit and long-term debt. As of December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023, the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities. The fair value of the Company’s 2021 Revolving Facility that provides for borrowings up to $50.0 million approximates its carrying value as the stated interest rates reset daily at the daily secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) plus an applicable margin and, as such, approximate market rates currently available to the Company. The Company does not have any financial instruments that were determined to be Level 3.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for the fair value of financial instruments (as defined), including financial assets and financial liabilities (collectively, as defined), and the measurements of those instruments as well as disclosures related to the fair value of non-financial assets and liabilities. Such disclosures about the financial instruments, assets, and liabilities would include: (1) the fair value of the required items together with their carrying amounts (as appropriate); (2) for items for which it is not practicable to estimate fair value, disclosure would include: (a) information pertinent to estimating fair value (including, carrying amount, effective interest rate, and maturity, and (b) the reasons why it is not practicable to estimate fair value; (3) significant concentrations of credit risk including: (a) information about the activity, region, or economic characteristics identifying a concentration, (b) the maximum amount of loss the entity is exposed to based on the gross fair value of the related item, (c) policy for requiring collateral or other security and information as to accessing such collateral or security, and (d) the nature and brief description of such collateral or security; (4) quantitative information about market risks and how such risks are managed; (5) for items measured on both a recurring and nonrecurring basis information regarding the inputs used to develop the fair value measurement; and (6) for items presented in the financial statement for which fair value measurement is elected: (a) information necessary to understand the reasons for the election, (b) discussion of the effect of fair value changes on earnings, (c) a description of [similar groups] items for which the election is made and the relation thereof to the balance sheet, the aggregate carrying value of items included in the balance sheet that are not eligible for the election; (7) all other required (as defined) and desired information.

12.Related Party Transactions

Transactions with the LP

Certain of the Company’s transactions with the LP are classified as a component within additional paid-in capital in the consolidated statements of stockholders’ deficit as there are no defined payments or other terms associated with these transactions. Such transactions included equity-based compensation related to outstanding Class P units of $4.5 million during 2021. With the completion of the IPO, the performance condition for pre-vesting distributions related to the Class P units was met and the Company recognized a cumulative catch-up to general and administrative expenses of $2.6 million during 2021 and $2.6 million payable to the Class P unit holders is included in accrued expense and other current liabilities as of January 2, 2022.

Immediately prior to the completion of the IPO, 215,702 shares of common stock were issued to the LP as a stock dividend for $3.5 million based on the Company’s IPO price of $16.00 per share during 2021.

Series B-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock Issuance

The Series B-1 Preferred Stock shares purchased by current executives were recorded at fair value and the excess of the fair value of $2.02 per share over the consideration paid of $1.00 per share was recorded as equity-based compensation of $1.5 million in 2021.

Management & Consulting Fees

The Company has accrued for management and consulting fees to H.I.G. Capital, LLC (“H.I.G.”, the LP’s ultimate parent), Institutional Venture Partners (Series A Preferred Stockholder), and certain board members. Expenses for such services were $0.4 million to H.I.G and $0.3 million to other related parties during 2021. All outstanding management fees were settled at the time of our IPO and the management and consulting agreements were terminated upon the IPO.

Significant Shareholder Relationships

The Company identified three shareholders with aggregate ownership interest in the Company greater than 10%. The Company reviewed the respective investment portfolio holdings of these shareholders and identified investments in other entities that the Company engages in business with. All of these business relationships were obtained without the support of these shareholders, and as such, are believed to be at terms comparable to those that would be obtained through arm’s length dealings with unrelated third parties.

Operating Leases

Until June 2021, the Company leased operations and warehouse spaces from a limited partner of the LP and a Series B Preferred Stockholder of the Company. After June 2021, the Company continued to lease a retail space from this limited partner and Series B Preferred Stockholder. Following the liquidation of the LP and the redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock in November 2021, the Company leased this retail space from the same party, who remains related as a common stockholder of the Company. The lease expired on October 31, 2022. Total rent expense to the related party was zero, $0.1 million and $0.1 million during 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for related party transactions. Examples of related party transactions include transactions between (a) a parent company and its subsidiary; (b) subsidiaries of a common parent; (c) and entity and its principal owners; and (d) affiliates.

6.Leases

On January 3, 2022, the Company adopted ASC 842 using the alternative transition method and applied the standard only to leases that existed at that date. Under the alternative transition method, the Company did need to restate the comparative periods in transition and will continue to present financial information and disclosures for periods before January 3, 2022, in accordance with FASB ASC 840, Leases. The Company elected the practical expedient package, which among other practical expedients, includes the option to retain the historical classification of leases entered into prior to January 3, 2022, and allows entities to recognize lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term for leases with a term of 12 months or less. The Company also elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components.

The Company is a lessee under various lease agreements. The determination of whether an arrangement contains a lease, and the lease classification is made at lease commencement (date upon which the Company takes possession of the asset). At lease commencement, the Company also measures and recognizes a right-of-use asset, representing the Company’s right to use the underlying asset, and a lease liability, representing the Company’s obligation to make lease payments under the terms of the arrangement. The lease term is defined as the noncancelable portion of the lease term plus any periods covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. For the purposes of recognizing right-of-use assets and lease liabilities associated with the Company’s leases, the Company has elected the practical expedient of not recognizing a right-of-use asset or lease liability for short-term leases, which are leases with a term of 12 months or less. The Company has multiple finance leases and operating leases that are combined and included in the lease right-of-use assets, lease liabilities, current, and lease liabilities, noncurrent on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

The Company primarily leases its distribution facilities and corporate offices under operating lease agreements expiring on various dates through December 2031, most of which contain options to extend. In addition to payment of base rent, the Company is also required to pay property taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance expenses. The Company records lease expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had immaterial remaining obligations for the base rent related to the short-term leases.

The Company also leases equipment under finance lease agreements expiring on various dates through May 2028.

As of December 31, 2023, the future minimum lease payments for the Company’s operating and finance leases for each of the next five fiscal years, and thereafter, were as follows (in thousands):

2021 Credit Agreement and Revolving Facility

During November 2021, the Company entered into the 2021 Credit Agreement with Bank of America to provide the 2021 Revolving Facility that provides for borrowings up to $50.0 million. During the term of the 2021 Credit Agreement, the Company can increase the aggregate amount of the 2021 Revolving Facility up to an additional $25.0 million (for maximum aggregate lender commitments of up to $75.0 million), subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions under the 2021 Credit Agreement, including obtaining the consent of the administrative agent and an increased commitment from existing or new lenders. In addition, the 2021 Credit Agreement may be used to issue letters of credit up to $7.5 million (the “Letter of Credit”). During 2023, the Company borrowed $13.0 million under the 2021 Revolving Facility and repaid $30.0 million of the outstanding balance. The 2021 Revolving Facility matures on November 15, 2024, while the Letter of Credit matures on November 8, 2024. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had $0.3 million outstanding under the Letter of Credit. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had $41.7 million available for borrowing under the 2021 Revolving Facility and $7.2 million available to issue letters of credit.

All borrowings under the 2021 Credit Agreement accrue interest at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, either (x) the term daily SOFR, plus the applicable SOFR adjustment plus a margin of 1.75% per annum or (y) the base rate plus a margin of 0.75% (with the base rate being the highest of the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, the prime rate and term SOFR for a period of one month plus 1.00%). Additionally, a commitment fee of 37.5 basis points will be assessed on unused commitments under the 2021 Revolving Facility, taking into account the sum of outstanding borrowings and letter of credit obligations. As of December 31, 2023, the interest rate for the 2021 Revolving Facility was 7.2%, and during 2023 and 2022, the weighted average interest rate for the 2021 Revolving Facility was 7.7% and 4.2%, respectively.

Amounts borrowed under the 2021 Credit Agreement are collateralized by all assets of the Company and contains various financial and non-financial covenants for reporting, protecting and obtaining adequate insurance coverage for assets collateralized and for coverage of business operations, and complying with requirements, including the payment of all necessary taxes and fees for all federal, state and local government entities. Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, including the noncompliance with the above covenants, the lender may increase the interest rate per annum by 2.0% above the rate that would be otherwise applicable. As of December 31, 2023, management has determined that the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants.

2017 Term Loan

In August 2017, the Company entered into a term loan with a principal amount of $135.0 million (the “2017 Term Loan”) and a revolving credit facility of $10.0 million (the “2017 Revolving Facility”) with certain financial institutions for which Credit Suisse acted as an administrative agent (the “2017 Credit Facility”).

During November 2021, the Company utilized the proceeds from the IPO and the 2021 Revolving Facility to repay the $105.8 million of outstanding principal and $1.4 million of accrued interest related to the 2017 Term Loan. The 2017 Credit Facility was terminated on November 15, 2021 and no prepayment penalties were incurred. With the repayment of the Credit Facility, the Company recognized a loss on debt extinguishment of $1.4 million, comprised of the write-off of $2.3 million in unamortized debt issuance costs and debt discounts, net of forgiveness of accrued debt amendment fees of $0.9 million in accordance with the Fifth Amendment.

The effective interest rate on the Term Loan was 15.3% for 2021.

2017 Revolving Facility

Outstanding amounts under the 2017 Revolving Facility bore interest at variable rates with a minimum of 7.00%. The Company repaid $8.6 million outstanding under the 2017 Revolving Facility in March 2021, and the 2017 Revolving Facility was terminated on November 15, 2021. The effective interest rate for the 2017 Revolving Facility was 11.6% for 2021.

Debt Discounts and Issuance Costs

Debt discounts and issuance costs are deferred and amortized over the life of the related loan using the effective interest method. The associated expense is included in interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Debt discounts and issuance costs are presented as a reduction of long-term debt with the exception of debt issuance costs related to the 2021 Revolving Facility, which are included in other non-current assets in the consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2023, and January 1, 2023, unamortized debt issuance costs recorded within other non-current assets were $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively.
