Exhibit 99.1
Lulus Reports Third Quarter 2026 Results
CHICO, Calif., November 12, 2026 -- Lulu’s Fashion Lounge Holdings, Inc. (“Lulus” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: LVLU) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 27, 2026, revised its financial outlook for the fiscal year ending January 3, 2027 and provided its financial outlook for the fiscal year ending January 2, 2028.
Crystal Landsem, CEO of Lulus, said:
“During the third quarter, we continued to advance our assortment reset and saw encouraging signs from newer product, even as the impact of historical assortment decisions remained a headwind to customer engagement and repeat purchasing behavior. While these pressures continue to weigh on revenue, we are encouraged by the improving productivity and reorder eligibility of 2026 product introductions, which reinforces our confidence that refocusing the assortment on the categories and customers where Lulus has historically differentiated itself is the right path to rebuilding customer engagement over time.
We also continued to see meaningful growth in our wholesale business, demonstrating the appeal of our product assortment across a broader customer base and providing an important avenue for future growth. At the same time, our disciplined approach to inventory management, merchandising, cost control and operational efficiency contributed to a 230-basis-point improvement in Gross Margin, year-to-date improvement in net cash provided by operating activities, positive year-to-date Free Cash Flow, and a 17% year-over-year reduction in inventory during the quarter.
While liquidity remains a constraint and the near-term operating environment continues to be challenging, we remain focused on preserving financial flexibility, improving the health and productivity of our inventory, and making disciplined investments in the product and customer experiences that differentiate Lulus. We believe these actions are strengthening the foundation of the business and positioning Lulus for a return to sustainable, profitable growth.”
Third Quarter 2026 Highlights:
·
Net revenue of $58.6 million, a 20% decrease compared to the same period last year, driven by a 20% decrease in Total Orders Placed and the impact of higher return rates driven primarily from sales mix, partially offset by an increase in wholesale revenue.
·
Average Order Value of $141 was flat compared to the same period last year.
·
Active Customers of 2.0 million, a 14% decrease compared to 2.4 million in the same period last year, and a decrease of 5% from the second quarter of 2026.
·
Gross profit decreased 16% to $26.3 million and Gross Margin increased 230 basis points to 44.9%, in each case compared to the same period last year.
·
Net loss of $4.3 million, compared to net loss of $2.3 million in the same period last year.
·
Adjusted EBITDA* of $(1.8) million, compared to $0.4 million in the same period last year.
·
Inventory balance of $31.9 million, a 17% decrease compared to $38.4 million in the same period last year.
·
Net cash used in operating activities of $2.1 million, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $1.8 million in the same period last year.
·
Free Cash Flow* of $(2.3) million, compared to $(2.4) million in the same period last year.
·
Total debt increased by $5.3 million during the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2026.
·
Net Debt* increased by $2.9 million during the thirteen weeks ended September 27, 2026.
Note: “*” represents a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Operating Metrics” section below for definitions of these metrics.

Heidi Crane, CFO of Lulus, said:
“Throughout the third quarter, we maintained a disciplined approach to inventory management, expense control and working capital as we continued to drive greater efficiency across the business. Our actions contributed to a 230-basis-point expansion in Gross Margin, a 17% year-over-year reduction in inventory, year-to-date improvement in net cash provided by operating activities and positive year-to-date Free Cash Flow. Going forward, our priorities remain centered on maintaining disciplined cost and inventory management, improving working capital efficiency, and carefully allocating resources to support the long-term health of the business.”
Financial Outlook
Revised 2026 Financial Outlook
The Company is revising its previously issued fiscal 2026 financial outlook to reflect the greater-than-anticipated impact of historical assortment decisions on revenue performance. While the Company continues to see encouraging improvements in the productivity and reorder eligibility of products introduced in 2026, the impact of weaker prior-year product offerings became more pronounced in the second half of the year, and the Company does not expect meaningful improvements in that trend before year-end. Accordingly, the Company expects continued year-over-year revenue pressure in the fourth quarter, comparable to the third quarter, with full-year revenue and Adjusted EBITDA below previously communicated expectations.
The Company remains focused on strengthening inventory productivity, maintaining disciplined expense management and enhancing operating efficiency to improve bottom-line results and support the long-term health of its business.
The Company now expects capital expenditures to be between $1.5 million and $2.0 million, inclusive of capitalized software, favorable to 2025 levels.
Preliminary Fiscal 2027 Financial Outlook
Looking ahead to fiscal 2027, the Company expects the year-over-year rate of revenue decline to moderate as the improving performance of products introduced in 2026 contributes more meaningfully to reorder activity and helps offset the continued impact of weaker historical product offerings. The Company also expects continued strong growth in its wholesale channel to support overall revenue performance. A healthier sales mix, the significant full-year benefit of cost reduction initiatives implemented in late 2026, and improved inventory productivity are expected to drive a meaningful improvement in profitability.
The Company believes these recent operational improvements and structural cost reductions represent a significant step toward strengthening financial performance and establishing a foundation for long-term, sustainable profitability.
Forecasting future results or trends is inherently difficult for any business, and actual results or trends may differ materially from those forecasted. Lulus’ outlook is based on current indications for its business. Lulus’ outlook factors in our current best estimates for anticipated headwinds, including those related to the level of tariffs, consumer demand, spending and returns by our customers, macroeconomic uncertainties, inflation, supply chain pressures, shipping and fuel costs, and the intended impact of our business initiatives and cost-reduction measures. Given the volatile nature of current consumer demand and potential for further impacts to consumer behavior due to macroeconomic factors, including continued inflation, higher interest rates, global political changes, including as a result of tariffs or bans, existing and future laws, regulations, and directives (including executive orders), as well as other world events, wars, and domestic and international conflicts that affect overall consumer confidence and the predictability of consumer purchasing behavior, Lulus’ financial outlook is subject to change.

All statements other than statements of historical or current fact included in this press release are forward-looking statements, including but not limited to statements regarding our strategic priorities, business initiatives, demand trends, opportunities for long-term growth, operating environment, cost reduction and inventory management measures, liquidity, and our financial outlook for the fiscal years ending January 3, 2027 and January 2, 2028. These statements are neither promises nor guarantees, but involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause Lulus’ actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in Lulus’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2025, Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in Lulus’ Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 28, 2026, and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission which could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this press release. Any such forward-looking statements represent management’s estimates as of the date of this press release.

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 accounting principles generally accepted 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, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Net Debt and Free Cash Flow. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, and our non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. We use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital. Our management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of our ongoing core operating performance. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when analyzing historical performance and liquidity and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures, please see the tables captioned “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included at the end of this release. Definitions of our non-GAAP financial measures and other operating metrics are
6
presented below. We also use certain key operating metrics, including Gross Margin, Active Customers, and Average Order Value.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that we calculate as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes or benefit, depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude the effects of equity-based compensation expense and other non-routine expenses. 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 items that we do not consider to be indicative of our core operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA Margin
Adjusted EBITDA Margin is a non-GAAP financial measure that we calculate as Adjusted EBITDA (as defined above) as a percentage of our net revenue.
Active Customers
We define Active Customers as the number of customers who have made at least one purchase across our platform in the prior 12-month period. Active Customer count is measured as of the last day of the relevant period. We consider the number of Active Customers to be a key performance metric on the basis that it is directly related to consumer awareness of our brand, our ability to attract visitors to our primarily digital platform, and our ability to convert visitors to paying customers. Active Customer counts are based on deduplication logic using customer account and guest checkout name, address, and email information.
Average Order Value
We define Average Order Value (“AOV”) as the sum of the total gross sales before returns across our platform in a given period, plus shipping revenue, less discounts and markdowns, divided by the Total Orders Placed (as defined below) in that period. AOV reflects the average basket size of our customers. AOV may fluctuate as we continue investing in the development and introduction of new Lulus merchandise and as a result of our promotional discount activity.
Free Cash Flow
Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that we calculate as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less cash used for capitalized software development costs and purchases of property and equipment. We view Free Cash Flow as an important indicator of our liquidity because it measures the amount of cash we generate.
Gross Margin
We define Gross Margin as gross profit as a percentage of our net revenue. Gross profit is equal to our net revenue less cost of revenue. Certain of our competitors and other retailers may report cost of revenue differently than we do. As a result, the reporting of our gross profit and Gross Margin may not be comparable to other companies.
Net Debt
Net Debt is a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as total debt, which currently consists of borrowings under the Company’s 2025 credit agreement with White Oak Commercial Finance, LLC, as amended, less cash and cash equivalents. We consider Net Debt to be an important supplemental measure of our financial position, which allows us to analyze our leverage.
7
Total Orders Placed
We define Total Orders Placed as the number of customer orders placed across our platform during a particular period. An order is counted on the day the customer places the order. We do not adjust the number of Total Orders Placed for any cancellation or return that may have occurred subsequent to a customer placing an order. Total Orders Placed, together with AOV, is an indicator of the net revenue we expect to generate in a particular period.
