(NASDAQ: SFIX), the leading online personal styling service, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2025, ended August 2, 2025. Please note that fiscal 2024 was a 53-week year due to an extra week in the fourth quarter. As such, the adjusted revenue growth rates referenced in these results remove the impact of that extra week to provide a comparison that the Company believes more accurately reflects its performance. “Fiscal 2025 was a milestone year for Stitch Fix. We finished the year with our second consecutive quarter of year-over-year revenue growth on an adjusted basis, and once again gained share in the US apparel market,” said Matt Baer, CEO, Stitch Fix. “Our positive momentum was driven by the successful execution of our transformation strategy, including the improvements to our client experience and assortment. Looking ahead, we will continue to fuel growth by harnessing the power of AI, our assortment of leading brands, and the human connection of our Stylists, to deliver the most client-centric and personalized shopping experience.” Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2025 Key Metrics and Financial Highlights Net revenue of $311.2 million, a decrease of 2.6% year-over-year.

Full Fiscal 2025 Key Metrics and Financial Highlights Net revenue of $1.27 billion, a decrease of 5.3% year-over-year. Adjusting for the impact of the extra week in fiscal 2024 of $21.6 million, net revenue decreased 3.7% year-over-year.Gross margin of 44.4%, an increase of 10 basis points year-over-year, which reflects improved transportation leverage.Net loss of $28.8 million and net loss margin of 2.3%; diluted loss per share of $0.22.Adjusted EBITDA of $49.1 million and Adjusted EBITDA margin of 3.9%, which reflect continued cost management discipline.Net cash provided by operating activities of $25.6 million and free cash flow of $9.3 million. Financial Outlook Stitch Fix’s financial outlook for the first quarter of fiscal 2026, ending November 1, 2025, is as follows: Q1 2026Net Revenue$333 million - $338 million4.4% - 6.0% YoYAdjusted EBITDA$8 million - $11 million2.4% - 3.3% margin The Company’s fiscal year is a 52-week or 53-week period ending on the Saturday closest to July 31. The fiscal years 2025 and 2026 are 52-week years. Stitch Fix’s financial outlook for fiscal year 2026 is as follows: Fiscal Year 2026Net Revenue$1.28 billion - $1.33 billion1.0% - 5.0% YoYAdjusted EBITDA$30 million - $45 million2.3% - 3.4% margin The Company expects full fiscal year 2026 gross margin to be between 43% and 44%. It expects full fiscal year 2026 advertising expense as a percentage of revenue to be between 9% and 10%. It also expects to be free cash flow positive for the full year. Stitch Fix has not reconciled its Adjusted EBITDA outlook to GAAP net income (loss) or free cash flow outlook to net cash flows used in operating activities from continuing operations because it does not provide an outlook for GAAP net income (loss) or net cash flows used in operating activities from continuing operations due to the uncertainty and potential variability of restructuring and other one-time costs, net other income (expense), provision for income taxes, stock-based compensation expense, or net cash flows used in operating activities from continuing operations, which are reconciling items between the non-GAAP financial measure and the corresponding GAAP measure. Because Stitch Fix cannot reasonably predict such items, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure outlooks to the corresponding GAAP measures are not available without unreasonable effort. We caution, however, that such items could have a significant impact on the calculation of GAAP net income (loss) and free cash flow. For more information regarding the non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this release, please see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below. Discontinued Operations During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, Stitch Fix ceased operations of its UK business and met the accounting requirements for reporting the UK business as a discontinued operation. Accordingly, its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the results of the UK business as a discontinued operation for all periods presented. Unless otherwise noted, amounts and disclosures relate to its continuing operations.

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 from continuing operations (“Adjusted EBITDA”) and Adjusted EBITDA margin, which is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue for the period, are frequently used by investors and securities analysts in their evaluations of companies, and that this supplemental measure facilitates comparisons between continuing operations of companies. We believe free cash flow from continuing operations (“Free Cash Flow”) is an important metric because it represents a measure of how much cash from continuing operations we have available for discretionary and non-discretionary items after the deduction of capital expenditures. These non-GAAP financial measures may be different than similarly titled measures used by other companies. Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as substitutes for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are several limitations related to the use of our non-GAAP financial measures as compared to the closest comparable GAAP measures. Some of these limitations include: Adjusted EBITDA excludes interest income and other (income) expense, net as these items are not components of our core business;Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our provision for income taxes, which may increase or decrease cash available to us;Adjusted EBITDA excludes the recurring, non-cash expenses of depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and, although these are non-cash expenses, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future;Adjusted EBITDA excludes the non-cash expense of stock-based compensation, which has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, an important part of how we attract and retain our employees and a significant recurring expense in our business;Adjusted EBITDA excludes costs incurred related to discrete restructuring plans and other one-time costs attributable to our continuing operations that are fundamentally different in strategic nature and frequency from ongoing initiatives. We believe exclusion of these items facilitates a more consistent comparison of operating performance over time, however these costs do include cash outflows;Adjusted EBITDA excludes non-ordinary course legal fees for specific proceedings that we have determined arise outside of the ordinary course of business and are nonrecurring, infrequent, or unusual; andFree Cash Flow does not represent the total residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes and does not reflect our future contractual commitments. Adjusted EBITDA We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss from continuing operations excluding interest income, other (income) expense, net, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring and other one-time costs, and non-ordinary course legal fees related to our continuing operations. We define Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue for the period. The following table presents a reconciliation of net loss from continuing operations, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, to Adjusted EBITDA, and net loss margin, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, to Adjusted EBITDA margin, for each of the periods presented: For the Three Months Ended For the Twelve Months Ended(in thousands) August 2, 2025 August 3, 2024 August 2, 2025 August 3, 2024Net loss from continuing operations $(8,577) $(35,741) $(28,844) $(118,885)Add (deduct): Interest income (2,487) (3,327) (10,709) (11,250)Other income, net (383) (651) (173) (1,631)Provision (benefit) for income taxes 241 (2,169) 821 (1,661)Depreciation and amortization(1) 6,500 8,210 27,860 35,489 Stock-based compensation expense 13,069 16,845 56,727 76,756 Restructuring and other one-time costs(2) 121 26,356 3,228 50,463 Non-ordinary course legal fees(3) $229 $— $229 $— Adjusted EBITDA $8,713 $9,523 $49,139 $29,281 Revenue, net $311,227 $319,550 $1,267,171 $1,337,468 Net loss margin (2.8)% (11.2)% (2.3)% (8.9)%Adjusted EBITDA margin 2.8% 3.0% 3.9% 2.2% (1) For the three and twelve months ended August 3, 2024, “Depreciation and amortization” excluded $2.9 million and $12.1 million, respectively, that was reflected in “Restructuring and other one-time costs”.(2) For the three and twelve months ended August 2, 2025, restructuring charges were nil and $1.2 million, respectively, primarily in severance and employee-related benefits and other restructuring costs; and other one-time costs were $0.1 million and $2.0 million, respectively, in one-time bonuses for certain continuing employees. For the three and twelve months ended August 3, 2024, restructuring charges were $22.7 million and $43.8 million, respectively. This included a $19.3 million impairment charge related to a portion of our corporate office space, recorded in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. For the three and twelve months ended August 3, 2024, other one-time costs were comprised of $3.7 million and $6.7 million in one-time professional services fees. (3) Non-ordinary course legal fees for the three and twelve months ended August 2, 2025, include costs related to a specific class action lawsuit. We estimate we will incur approximately $4.2 million in non-ordinary course legal fees in fiscal 2026 related to said class action lawsuit. Free Cash Flow We define Free Cash Flow as net cash flows used in operating activities from continuing operations, reduced by purchases of property and equipment that are included in cash flows from investing activities from continuing operations.

Clients check out a Fix when they indicate what items they are keeping through our mobile application or on our website. We consider each Women’s, Men’s, or Kids account as a client, even if they share the same household. Net Revenue per Active Client We calculate net revenue per active client based on net revenue over the preceding four fiscal quarters divided by the number of active clients measured as of the last day of the period.
