Kidpik Corp. (“KIDPIK” or the “Company”), an online clothing
subscription-based e-commerce company, today reported its financial
results for the first quarter 2024 ended March 30, 2024.
First Quarter 2024
Highlights:
- Revenue, net: was $2.2 million, a year over year
decrease of 44.4%.
- Gross margin: was 69.9%, compared to 59.8% in the first
quarter of 2023.
- Shipped items: were 195,000 items, compared to 340,000
shipped items in the first quarter of 2023.
- Average shipment keep rate: increased to 78.2%, compared
to 68.1% in the first quarter of 2023.
- Net Loss: was $1.8 million or $0.94 per share.
- Adjusted EBITDA: was a loss of $1.4 million (see

“As previously disclosed, on March 29, 2024, we entered into an
Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger
Agreement”) with Nina Footwear Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Nina
Footwear”), and Kidpik Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and
wholly-owned subsidiary of Kidpik (“Merger Sub”), whereby Nina
Footwear will merge with and into Merger Sub, with Nina Footwear
continuing as the surviving entity (the “Merger”). While we work
towards closing the Merger, we have ceased the purchase of new
inventory and are working to clear current inventory in
anticipation of the combination with Nina Footwear,” stated Mr.
Ezra Dabah, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.
“We and Nina Footwear remain committed to closing the Merger, a
transaction which we believe will increase Kidpik’s revenue,
cashflow and prospects, while also strengthening Kidpik’s balance
sheet and significantly increasing stockholder value,” said Mr.
Dabah.
The closing of the Merger is subject to customary closing
conditions, including the preparation and mailing of a proxy
statement by Kidpik, and the receipt of required stockholder
approvals from Kidpik and Nina Footwear stockholders, and is
expected to close in the third quarter of 2024.
Kidpik will not be holding an earnings call to discuss first
quarter 2024, as the Company continues to move forward with the
Merger.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We report our financial results in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”).
However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial
measures provide users of our financial information with additional
useful information in evaluating our performance. We believe that
adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by investors and securities
analysts in their evaluations of companies, and that this
supplemental measure facilitates comparisons between companies.
This non-GAAP financial measure may be different than similarly
titled measures used by other companies. We calculate Adjusted
EBITDA as net loss before other expense, net, interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude the effects of
equity-based compensation expense, and certain non-routine items.
We have provided below a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net
loss, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure.
Our non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered in
isolation from, or as substitutes for, financial information
prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations
as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation
or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under
GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
- Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges,
the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced
in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital
expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital
expenditure requirements;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash
requirements for, our working capital needs;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not consider the potentially dilutive
impact of equity-based compensation;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect tax payments that may
represent a reduction in cash available to us;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect certain non-routine items that
may represent a reduction in cash available to us; and
- Other companies, including companies in our industry, may
calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness
as a comparative measure.
We compensate for these limitations by providing a
reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the most comparable GAAP
measure. We encourage investors and others to review our business,
results of operations, and financial information in their entirety,
not to rely on any single financial measure, and to view this
non-GAAP measure in conjunction with the most directly comparable
GAAP financial measure. For more information on these non-GAAP
financial measures, please see the section titled “Unaudited
Reconciliation of Net Loss to Adjusted Earnings before Interest,
Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA),” included at the end
of this release.

stockholders to be held to approve the proposed Merger and other
matters (the “Merger Meeting”). Kidpik may also file other

%
Gross profit is equal to our net sales less cost of goods sold.
Gross profit as a percentage of our net sales is referred to as
gross margin. Cost of sales consists of the purchase price of
merchandise sold to customers and includes import duties and other
taxes, freight in, returns from customers, inventory write-offs,
and other miscellaneous shrinkage. The improvement in the gross
margin was the result of an inventory write-down in the fourth
quarter of 2023. Without the reduction of the cost basis due to the
write-down, gross margin would be 53.5% for the 13 weeks ended
March 30, 2024.
Shipped Items
We define shipped items as the total number of items shipped in
a given period to our customers through our active subscription,
