Warby Parker Unveils First Intelligent Eyewear DesignMay 19, 2026 1:45 PM
Business Wire Rooted in the brand’s signature aesthetic, debut style balances elevated design with effortless, all-day wear Warby Parker Inc. (NYSE: WRBY), a lifestyle brand focused on vision for all, today unveiled its first Intelligent Eyewear frame designed for all-day, everyday wear. The debut style combines Warby Parker’s distinctive approach to design with Google’s leadership in AI and Samsung’s mobile leadership to create beautifully crafted eyewear that seamlessly enhances everyday life. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260519092381/en/ For more than 16 years, Warby Parker has redefined how consumers shop for glasses by pairing meticulous, timeless design with exceptional customer experiences. This year, the company will apply that same philosophy to a new category—one that reimagines the role glasses can play in people’s daily lives. “Glasses are the most personal technology we use, and are the very first thing people notice about you,” said Dave Gilboa, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Warby Parker. “As we integrate advanced technology into our products, we’re staying true to the principles that define great eyewear: beautiful design, precision optics, and exceptional comfort in frames built for all-day, everyday wear.” To craft its inaugural Intelligent Eyewear assortment, the brand drew from its expansive archive of styles created by their New York City design team along with years of proprietary fit and comfort data. The debut style—a classic, rounded silhouette—draws inspiration from Warby Parker’s most recognizable and beloved silhouettes, designed to complement a range of face shapes and personal styles. “These glasses give you powerful new tools, but they’re designed to feel intuitive and unobtrusive so you can stay focused on the people and moments in front of you,” said Neil Blumenthal, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Warby Parker. “Every detail and curve was considered for extended, everyday use, from the fit and balance of the frame to enhanced grip and stability.” The new frame is constructed from ultra-lightweight, flexible nylon in a custom dark green hue. The interior temple was crafted with a semi-translucent finish that subtly reveals and celebrates the integrated technology, while preserving a streamlined appearance. Built in partnership with Google and Samsung, the frames feature Gemini and work with Android XR to provide contextual, real-time assistance. Wearers will be able to access information, manage daily tasks, navigate their surroundings, communicate seamlessly, and interact with the apps they already use every day, without interrupting the moments in front of them. Alongside its partners, Warby Parker plans to launch its first line of Intelligent Eyewear this fall. The initial assortment will feature multiple optical and sun styles and will support a broad range of prescriptions and lens options. The collection reflects Warby Parker’s belief that personal expression and choice remain central to the future of wearable technology. To learn more, visit warbyparker.com/intelligent-eyewear. About Warby Parker Warby Parker (NYSE: WRBY) was founded in 2010 with a mission to inspire and impact the world with vision, purpose, and style–without charging a premium for it. Headquartered in New York City, the co-founder-led lifestyle brand pioneers ideas, designs products, and develops technologies that help people see, from designer-quality prescription glasses (starting at $95) and contacts, to eye exams and vision tests available online and in its 337 retail stores across the U.S. and Canada. Warby Parker aims to demonstrate that businesses can scale, do well, and do good in the world. Ultimately, the Company believes in vision for all, which is why for every pair of glasses or sunglasses sold, a pair is distributed to someone in need through its Buy a Pair, Give a Pair program. To date, Warby Parker has worked alongside its nonprofit partners to distribute more than 25 million glasses to people in need.

Warby Parker Announces First Quarter 2026 ResultsMay 7, 2026 6:45 AM
Business Wire Warby Parker Inc. (NYSE: WRBY) (“Warby Parker” or the “Company”), a direct-to-consumer lifestyle brand focused on vision for all, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026. Highlights Delivered revenue growth of 8.3%, exceeding the Company’s guidance. Drove Active Customer growth of 4.8% to 2.69 million on a trailing 12-month basis, and Average Revenue per Customer of $331, up 6.9% year over year. Generated net income of $3.2 million, and expanded Adjusted EBITDA(1) to $29.6 million, exceeding the Company’s guidance. Delivered operating cash flow of $24.5 million and Free Cash Flow(1) of $8.4 million, ending the quarter with $288.2 million in cash and cash equivalents. Opened 14 net new stores during the quarter, ending Q1 with 337 stores. Announced 25 million pairs of glasses distributed through the Buy a Pair, Give a Pair program. “We’re proud of our team’s resilience as we navigated a dynamic environment, including severe weather. We continue to invest in the customer experience and bring innovative new products like Warby Parker Sport to market, and the momentum we’re building gives us confidence as we move through the balance of the year,” said Co-Founder and Co-CEO Neil Blumenthal. “As we look ahead, a top priority is preparing for the launch of intelligent eyewear. Since day one, we have aimed to delight customers by offering remarkable products and experiences. We’re excited to introduce what we believe will be the world’s first truly intelligent AI glasses for all-day wear. We’re building capabilities to support this launch and are proud of how our team is bringing this to life,” added Co-Founder and Co-CEO Dave Gilboa. First Quarter 2026 Year Over Year Financial Results Net revenue increased $18.7 million, or 8.3%, to $242.4 million. Active Customers increased 4.8% to 2.69 million on a trailing 12-month basis, and Average Revenue per Customer increased 6.9% to $331. Gross margin was 54.0% compared to 56.3% in the prior year. The decrease was primarily driven by deleverage in the fixed expenses portion of gross margin, which includes doctor headcount and occupancy, the impact of tariff costs related to glasses, and increased optical laboratory and customer shipping costs. These impacts were partially offset by selective price increases taken earlier last year in glasses, and increased penetration of higher margin progressive lenses and other lens enhancements. Adjusted Gross Margin(1) was 54.2%, compared to 56.4% in the prior year. Selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) were $129.4 million, up $5.9 million from the prior year. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A decreased by 180 basis points, primarily driven by leverage from marketing costs related to our Home-Try On program which was sunsetted in Q4 2025, and lower stock-based compensation, corporate expenses, and customer experience team costs as a percent of revenue. This leverage was partially offset by increased retail compensation as a percent of revenue. Adjusted SG&A(1) was $117.1 million, or 48.3% of revenue, compared to $110.3 million, or 49.3% of revenue, in the prior year. Net income decreased $0.3 million to $3.2 million. Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased $0.4 million to $29.6 million and Adjusted EBITDA Margin(1) decreased 90 basis points to 12.2%. Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights Ended the first quarter of 2026 with $288.2 million in cash and cash equivalents. Operating cash flow of $24.5 million and Free Cash Flow(1) of $8.4 million. 2026 Outlook For the full year 2026, Warby Parker is reaffirming its guidance as follows: Net revenue of $959 to $976 million, representing approximately 10% to 12% growth versus full year 2025. Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $117 to $119 million, which equates to an Adjusted EBITDA Margin(1) of 12.2% across the revenue range, and 130 basis points of year-over-year expansion. 50 new store openings. “We're pleased with the results we delivered in the first quarter that were ahead of expectations. We're also encouraged by the momentum being built as we pursue several initiatives that position us to drive our performance through the rest of this year,” said Adrian Mitchell, Chief Financial Officer. The guidance and forward-looking statements made in this press release and on our conference call are based on management's expectations as of the date of this press release.

Glossary Active Customers is defined as unique customer accounts that have made at least one purchase in the preceding 12-month period. Average Revenue per Customer is defined as the sum of the total net revenues in the preceding 12-month period divided by the current period Active Customers. Non-GAAP Financial Measures We use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Cost of Goods Sold (“Adjusted COGS”), Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses (“Adjusted SG&A”), and Free Cash Flow as important indicators of our operating performance. Collectively, we refer to these non-GAAP financial measures as our “Non-GAAP Measures.” The Non-GAAP Measures, when taken collectively with our GAAP results, may be helpful to investors because they provide consistency and comparability with past financial performance and assist in comparisons with other companies, some of which use similar non-GAAP financial information to supplement their GAAP results. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before interest and other income, taxes, and depreciation and amortization as further adjusted for asset impairment costs, stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes, amortization of cloud-based software implementation costs, non-cash charitable donations, charges for certain legal matters outside the ordinary course of business, and non-recurring costs such as restructuring costs and major system implementation costs. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue. Adjusted COGS is defined as cost of goods sold adjusted for stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes and non-recurring costs. Adjusted Gross Profit is defined as net revenue minus Adjusted COGS. Adjusted Gross Margin is defined as Adjusted Gross Profit divided by net revenue. Adjusted SG&A is defined as SG&A adjusted for stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes, non-cash charitable donations, charges for certain legal matters outside the ordinary course of business, and non-recurring costs such as restructuring costs and major system implementation costs. Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities minus purchases of property and equipment. The Non-GAAP Measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only. A reconciliation of historical GAAP to Non-GAAP financial information is included under “Selected Financial Information” below. We have not reconciled our Adjusted EBITDA Margin guidance to GAAP net income margin, or net margin, or Adjusted EBITDA guidance to GAAP net income because we do not provide guidance for GAAP net margin or GAAP net income due to the uncertainty and potential variability of stock-based compensation and taxes, which are reconciling items between GAAP net margin and Adjusted EBITDA Margin and GAAP net income and Adjusted EBITDA, respectively. Because such items cannot be reasonably provided without unreasonable efforts, we are unable to provide a reconciliation of the Adjusted EBITDA Margin guidance to GAAP net margin and Adjusted EBITDA guidance to GAAP net income. However, such items could have a significant impact on GAAP net margin and GAAP net income.

Delivered revenue growth of 13.0% for full year 2025 and 11.2% for the fourth quarter.
Drove Active Customer growth of 7.0%, and Average Revenue per Customer of $324, up 5.7% year over year.
Achieved first full year of positive net income of $1.6 million, and expanded Adjusted EBITDA(1) by 30.2% year over year to $95.2 million and Adjusted EBITDA Margin(1) by 140 basis points to 10.9%.
Delivered third consecutive year of positive operating cash flow and Free Cash Flow(1) in 2025 of $110.8 million and $43.7 million, respectively.
Opened 47 net new stores during the year, ending 2025 with 323 stores.
Authorized a $100 million share repurchase program to complement strategic growth investments in the business.
“In 2025, we delivered double-digit revenue growth each quarter and achieved our first full year of positive net income while expanding Adjusted EBITDA,” said Dave Gilboa, Co-Founder and Co-CEO. “In a dynamic environment, we leveraged our unmatched value proposition to capture additional market share while giving customers more convenient options to shop with us than ever before.”
“As we look ahead, we are focused on laying the groundwork for accelerating growth. We are moving decisively into Warby Parker’s next act, one defined by groundbreaking innovation and AI that will redefine how our customers experience eyewear and vision care,” added Co-Founder and Co-CEO Neil Blumenthal.
Fourth Quarter 2025 Year-Over-Year Financial Results
Net revenue increased $21.3 million, or 11.2%, to $212.0 million.
Gross margin was 52.4% compared to 54.1% in the prior year. The decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by tariff costs related to glasses, increased doctor headcount, sales growth of contact lenses, and increased customer shipping costs as a percent of revenue, partially offset by selective price increases in glasses taken in the second quarter and increased penetration of progressives and other lens enhancements.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) increased $5.4 million to $117.9 million, or 55.6% of revenue, down 340 basis points from 59.0% in the prior year. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A decreased primarily due to leverage from corporate expenses and efficiencies in our customer experience operations, as well as lower stock-based compensation. Adjusted SG&A(1) was $110.3 million, or 52.0% of revenue, compared to $103.0 million, or 54.0% of revenue, in the prior year.
Net loss improved $0.9 million to $6.0 million, primarily as a result of leveraging our expense base on higher revenue.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased $1.4 million to $15.2 million, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin(1) of 7.2% was roughly flat with the prior year.
Full Year 2025 Year-Over-Year Financial Results
Net revenue increased $100.6 million, or 13.0%, to $871.9 million.
Gross margin was 54.0% compared to 55.3% in the prior year. The decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by tariff costs related to glasses, sales growth of contact lenses, increased doctor headcount, and increased customer shipping costs as a percent of revenue, partially offset by selective price increases in glasses taken in the second quarter and increased penetration of progressives and other lens enhancements.
SG&A increased $19.0 million to $475.9 million, or 54.6% of revenue, down 460 basis points from 59.2% in the prior year. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A decreased primarily due to leverage from corporate expenses and efficiencies in our customer experience operations, as well as lower stock-based compensation. Adjusted SG&A(1) was $433.3 million, or 49.7% of revenue, compared to $405.2 million, or 52.5% of revenue in the prior year.
Net income improved $22.0 million to $1.6 million, primarily as a result of leveraging our expense base on higher revenue.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased $22.1 million to $95.2 million, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin(1) increased 140 basis points to 10.9%.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights
Ended fiscal year 2025 with $286.4 million in cash and cash equivalents.
Net cash provided by operating activities of $110.8 million in 2025; $43.7 million of full year Free Cash Flow(1), our third consecutive year of positive operating cash flow and Free Cash Flow(1).
Share Repurchase Program
In February 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program to purchase up to $100.0 million of the Company’s Class A common stock (the “Share Repurchase Program”). Repurchases under the Share Repurchase Program may be made in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, with the amount and timing of repurchases to be determined at the Company’s discretion, depending on market conditions and corporate needs. Open market repurchases will be structured to occur in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including within the pricing and volume requirements of Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company may also, from time to time, enter into Rule 10b5-1 plans to facilitate repurchases of its shares under this authorization. The Share Repurchase Program does not have a fixed expiration date, does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of Class A common stock, and may be modified, suspended, or terminated at any time at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors.
2026 Outlook
For the full year 2026, Warby Parker is providing the following guidance:
Net revenue of $959 to $976 million, representing approximately 10% to 12% growth versus full year 2025.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $117 to $119 million, which equates to an Adjusted EBITDA Margin(1) of 12.2% across the revenue range, and 130 basis points of year-over-year expansion.
50 new store openings.
“Our healthy balance sheet and strong cash flows allow us to invest in our strategic growth initiatives as we scale our business over time, while maintaining the flexibility to return capital to shareholders,” said Adrian Mitchell, Chief Financial Officer. “I am incredibly energized by Warby Parker’s compelling brand promise. By marrying exceptional style with superior quality and outstanding value, we’ve effectively positioned our business for exciting growth opportunities on the horizon.”

About Warby Parker
Warby Parker (NYSE: WRBY) was founded in 2010 with a mission to inspire and impact the world with vision, purpose, and style–without charging a premium for it. Headquartered in New York City, the co-founder-led lifestyle brand pioneers ideas, designs products, and develops technologies that help people see, from designer-quality prescription glasses (starting at $95) and contacts, to eye exams and vision tests available online and in its 323 retail stores across the U.S. and Canada.
Warby Parker aims to demonstrate that businesses can scale, do well, and do good in the world. Ultimately, the brand believes in vision for all, which is why for every pair of glasses or sunglasses sold, they distribute a pair to someone in need through their Buy a Pair, Give a Pair program.

Glossary
Active Customers is defined as unique customer accounts that have made at least one purchase in the preceding 12-month period.
Average Revenue per Customer is defined as the sum of the total net revenues in the preceding 12-month period divided by the current period Active Customers.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Cost of Goods Sold (“Adjusted COGS”), Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses (“Adjusted SG&A”), and Free Cash Flow as important indicators of our operating performance. Collectively, we refer to these non-GAAP financial measures as our “Non-GAAP Measures.” The Non-GAAP Measures, when taken collectively with our GAAP results, may be helpful to investors because they provide consistency and comparability with past financial performance and assist in comparisons with other companies, some of which use similar non-GAAP financial information to supplement their GAAP results.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before interest and other income, taxes, and depreciation and amortization as further adjusted for asset impairment costs, stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes, amortization of cloud-based software implementation costs, non-cash charitable donations, charges for certain legal matters outside the ordinary course of business, and non-recurring costs such as restructuring costs and major system implementation costs. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue.
Adjusted COGS is defined as cost of goods sold adjusted for stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes and non-recurring costs.
Adjusted Gross Profit is defined as net revenue minus Adjusted COGS. Adjusted Gross Margin is defined as Adjusted Gross Profit divided by net revenue.
Adjusted SG&A is defined as SG&A adjusted for stock-based compensation expense and related employer payroll taxes, non-cash charitable donations, charges for certain legal matters outside the ordinary course of business, and non-recurring costs such as restructuring costs and major system implementation costs.
Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities minus purchases of property and equipment.
The Non-GAAP Measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only. A reconciliation of historical GAAP to Non-GAAP financial information is included under “Selected Financial Information” below.
We have not reconciled our Adjusted EBITDA Margin guidance to GAAP net income (loss) margin, or net margin, or Adjusted EBITDA guidance to GAAP net income (loss) because we do not provide guidance for GAAP net margin or GAAP net income (loss) due to the uncertainty and potential variability of stock-based compensation and taxes, which are reconciling items between GAAP net margin and Adjusted EBITDA Margin and GAAP net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA, respectively. Because such items cannot be reasonably provided without unreasonable efforts, we are unable to provide a reconciliation of the Adjusted EBITDA Margin guidance to GAAP net margin and Adjusted EBITDA guidance to GAAP net income (loss). However, such items could have a significant impact on GAAP net margin and GAAP net income (loss).
