Allbirds Reports First Quarter 2023 Financial Results

SAN FRANCISCO, May 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Allbirds, Inc. (NASDAQ: BIRD), a global lifestyle brand that innovates with naturally derived materials to make better footwear and apparel products in a better way, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

Q1 2023 Overview

  • Net revenue decreased 13.4% to $54.4 million compared to 2022 and increased 9.5% compared to 2021
  • Net loss of $35.2 million, or $0.23 per basic and diluted share
  • Adjusted EBITDA1 loss of $21.7 million
  • Announced M0.0NSHOT, a project to create the world’s first net zero carbon shoe
  • Significant improvement in Q1 cash usage, down 50.6% compared to Q1 2022
  • In April 2023, extended and upsized undrawn revolver with JP Morgan

“Our teams are executing well against our strategic transformation plan designed to reignite growth, improve capital efficiency and drive profitability,” said Joey Zwillinger, Co-Founder and CEO. “The dedication and hard work of our flock resulted in a quarter that demonstrated good progress on our strategic initiatives while exceeding our expectations.”

“Our mission to create better things in a better way, guided by our Super Natural Comfort northstar, remains at the forefront of everything we do at Allbirds as we advance our vision to build a 100-year brand.”

First Quarter Operating Results

Net revenue decreased 13.4% to $54.4 million compared to the first quarter of 2022 and increased 9.5% compared to the first quarter of 2021. This decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in average selling price, driven by promotional activity and a higher mix of third party sales, and an estimated $1.2 million negative impact from foreign exchange (FX).

Gross profit totaled $21.8 million compared to $32.6 million in the first quarter of 2022, and gross margin declined to 40.1% compared to 51.9% in the first quarter of 2022. The decrease in gross margin is primarily due to the decrease in average selling price, driven by an increase in promotional activity and a higher mix of third party sales, write-downs related to prior generation products, and costs relating to our manufacturing transitions.

Selling, general, and administrative expense (SG&A) was $42.8 million, or 78.7% of net revenue, compared to $38.8 million, or 61.7% of net revenue in the first quarter of 2022, which represented a year over year increase of 10.3%. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in stock-based compensation and operational expenses for 20 additional stores opened since the first quarter of 2022, including depreciation expense, and rent and utility expense.

Marketing expense totaled $11.5 million, or 21.1% of net revenue, compared to $13.8 million, or 22.0% of net revenue in the first quarter of 2022, due to a reduction in marketing spend compared to the same period in 2022, driven by decreased digital advertising spend.

Restructuring expense totaled $3.2 million, or 6.0% of net revenue, compared to $0.0 million in the first quarter of 2022, as a result of executing the strategic transformation plan announced in March 2023.

Net loss was $35.2 million compared to $21.9 million in the first quarter of 2022, and net loss margin was 64.7% compared to 34.9% in the first quarter of 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA1 was a loss of $21.7 million, compared to a loss of $12.2 million in the first quarter of 2022, and adjusted EBITDA margin1 declined to (39.8)% compared to (19.5)% in the first quarter of 2022.

Strategic Transformation Designed to Drive Sustained and Profitable Growth

Allbirds is executing its strategic transformation plan designed to reignite growth in the coming years, as well as improve capital efficiency, and drive profitability. The plan, announced in March 2023, focuses on four key areas:

  • Reignite product and brand
    • Executing a highly-focused brand strategy that reconnects with core consumers.
  • Optimize U.S. stores and slow pace of openings.
    • Driving traffic and conversion to our U.S. fleet and selectively expanding our third party wholesale channel.
  • Evaluate transition of international go-to-market strategy
    • Evaluating potential distributor partners in certain international markets to grow internationally in a cost- and capital-efficient manner.
  • Improve cost savings and capital efficiency
    • Building upon and further accelerating 2022 cost and cash optimization initiatives to accelerate cost of revenue savings and SG&A savings, and improve cash optimization.

Balance Sheet Highlights

Allbirds ended the quarter with $143.3 million of cash and cash equivalents, reflecting a 50.6% improvement in cash usage compared to the first quarter of 2022.

In April 2023, we amended our credit agreement to extend and upsize our undrawn revolver, which extended the maturity through 2026, increased the committed amount to $50 million, and increased the uncommitted incremental borrowing capacity to $50 million.

Inventories totaled $109.5 million, a decrease of 6.3% compared to $116.8 million at the end of 2022, and a decrease of 7.5% compared to $118.5 million at the end of the first quarter of 2022. The decrease from the end of 2022 is attributable to less on hand inventory.

Q2 2023 Financial Guidance Targets

Allbirds is providing the following financial guidance targets for the 2nd quarter of 2023:

  • Net revenue of $64 million to $69 million, a decrease of 18% to 12% versus the 2nd quarter of fiscal 2022.
  • Adjusted EBITDA2 loss of $20 million to $23 million.

The Company will provide additional commentary on 2023 business trends during its earnings call.

_______________
1 For a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, please refer to the reconciliation tables in the section titled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures below.
2 A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to corresponding GAAP financial measures is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort as we are currently unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty certain expense items that are excluded in calculating adjusted EBITDA, although it is important to note that these factors could be material to our results computed in accordance with GAAP. We have provided a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the section titled “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for our first quarter 2023 and 2022 results included in this press release.

Allbirds will host a conference call to discuss the results, followed by Q&A, at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time today, May 9, 2023.

Information on the Company’s website is not, and will not be deemed to be, a part of this press release or incorporated into any other filings the Company may make with the Securities and Exchange Commission. A replay of the webcast will also be archived on the Allbirds website for 12 months.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release and related conference call contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are based on management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to management. All statements other than statements of historical facts, including statements regarding our strategic transformation plan and related efforts, financial outlook and guidance targets, estimated and/or targeted cost savings, medium-term financial targets, market position, future results of operations, financial condition, business strategy and plans, reducing the carbon footprint of our products, and objectives of management for future operations are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “designed,” “objective,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will,” or “would” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to: our strategic transformation plans, simplification initiatives or our long-term growth strategy; fluctuations in our operating results; economic uncertainty in our key markets; impairment of long-lived assets; the strength of our brand; our net losses since inception; the competitive marketplace; our reliance on technical and materials innovation; our use of sustainable high-quality materials and environmentally friendly manufacturing processes and supply chain practices; our ability to attract new customers and increase sales to existing customers; the impact of climate change and government and investor focus on sustainability issues; our ability to anticipate product trends and consumer preferences; and our ability to forecast consumer demand. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment in which new risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause our actual results or performance to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make.

Further information on these risks and other factors that could cause our financial results, performance, and achievements to differ materially from any results, performance, or achievements anticipated, expressed, or implied by these forward-looking statements is included in the filings we make with the SEC, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and future reports we may file with the SEC from time to time. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release and related conference call relate only to events as of the date stated or, if no date is stated, as of the date of this press release and related conference call. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this press release to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this press release or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in or expressed by, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release and accompanying financial tables include references to adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, which are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when reviewed in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, and not in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results of operations under GAAP, are useful to investors as they are widely used measures of performance, and the adjustments we make to these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors further insight into our profitability and additional perspectives in comparing our performance to other companies and in comparing our performance over time on a consistent basis. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to net loss or net loss margin as calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss before stock-based compensation expense (including common stock warrant expense), depreciation and amortization expense, impairment expense, restructuring expense, other income or expense, interest income or expense, and income tax provision or benefit.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue.

Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate these adjusted financial measures differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, we consider, and investors should consider, these adjusted financial measures together with other operating and financial performance measures presented in accordance with GAAP.
