SPECIAL CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and any documents incorporated herein by reference, and our other public documents and statements our officers and representatives may make from time to time, contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. We intend for these statements to be entitled to the protection of the safe harbor provisions of these laws. You can find many of these statements by looking for words such as "may," "would," "could," "should," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "predict," "project," "potential," "continue," "contemplate," "seek," "assume," "believe," "intend," "plan," "forecast," "goal," "estimate," or other similar expressions which identify these forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and relate to future events or our future financial or operating performance. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry and business, and on management's beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. Accordingly, you are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to assumptions, risks, uncertainties, and other important factors that are difficult to predict, and that actual results and outcomes may be materially different from the results or outcomes expressed or implied by any of our forward-looking statements for a variety of reasons, including among others:

•any difficulties we may encounter as a result of our reliance on third-parties that we do not control for the performance of critical functions material to our business, such as carriers, fulfillment partners, and SaaS/IaaS providers;

•any inability to compete successfully against existing or future competitors or to effectively market our business and generate customer traffic;

•a recession or other economic downturn, inflation, high interest rates, our exposure to the U.S. housing market, or other changes in U.S. and global economic conditions or U.S. consumer spending;

•any increases in the price of importing goods into the U.S. or transporting to our customers the types of merchandise we sell or other supply chain challenges that limit our ability to deliver merchandise to our customers in a timely and cost-effective manner;

•any difficulties or negative consequences we may encounter as a result of our changed company name, changed stock ticker symbol, changed stock exchange on which our common stock trades, or as a result of the use of our various brands including Beyond, Overstock, Bed Bath & Beyond, Zulily, Backyard, and College Living;

•any problems associated with the changing job market, changing job structure, changing compensation structure, or ability to attract and retain key personnel;

•any inability to generate and maintain unpaid natural traffic to our websites;

•any inability to become profitable or generate positive cash flow from operations;

•the relocation or third-party maintenance of our data center or any other risks or challenges that could result in loss of functionality or unavailability of our websites or reduced performance of our transaction systems;

•our exposure to cybersecurity risks, risks of data loss and other security breaches;

•the risk that we may be required to recognize losses relating to our equity and other investments;

•the impacts that we would experience if governmental entities or providers of consumer devices and internet browsers further restrict or regulate the use of "cookie" tracking technologies;

•the impact that any litigation, claims, or regulatory matters could have on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows;

•any inability to optimize and effectively operate our distribution center, warehouse, and customer service operations;

•any failures to effectively utilize technological advancements;

•negative economic consequences of political events such as the U.S. presidential election, various global conflicts, and macroeconomic factors;

•negative consequences associated with our determination to partially self-insure our employee's health insurance;

•the possibility that we may be unable to protect our proprietary technology and to obtain trademark protection for our marks;

•current and future claims of intellectual property infringement to which we are subject;

•any difficulties we may encounter as a result of our reliance on third-parties that we do not control for their representations regarding product compliance with various laws and regulations;

Table of Contents

•any difficulties we may encounter as a result of our evolving business practices, including the expansion of our products and service offerings, our continuing expansion into international markets, our changing approach to holding inventory, content creation, and sales through our various websites and brands;

•any problems associated with our lack of visibility into, and our lack of influence over, our equity method investments, including our reliance on third-parties to timely and accurately report material events to us;

•any inability of Pelion Venture Partners to successfully manage the Medici Ventures, L.P. fund, in which we are the limited partner, or any other entity in which we also have a direct minority interest; and

•the other risks described in this report or in our other public filings.

In evaluating all forward-looking statements, you should specifically consider the risks outlined above and in this report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 23, 2024, in our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on May 8, 2024, especially under the headings "Special Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements," "Risk Factors," "Legal Proceedings," and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations." These factors may cause our actual results and outcomes to differ materially from those contemplated by any forward-looking statement. Although we believe that our expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee or offer any assurance of future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements or other future events. Our forward-looking statements contained in this report speak only as of the date of this report and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this report or any changes in our expectations or any change in any events, conditions or circumstances on which any of our forward-looking statements are based.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Beyond, Inc. is an ecommerce expert with a singular focus: connecting consumers with products and services that unlock their families' and homes' potential. As the owner of Bed Bath & Beyond, Overstock, Zulily, and other related brands and associated intellectual property, our suite of online shopping brands features millions of products for various life stages that millions of customers visit each month.

As used herein, "Beyond," "the Company," "we," "our" and similar terms include Beyond, Inc. and its controlled subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

We have prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited annual consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. There have been no significant changes to our significant accounting policies disclosed in Note 2-Accounting Policies and Supplemental Disclosures, included in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, except as disclosed below.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries and reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in our opinion, necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods presented. All intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or the full fiscal year, due to seasonality and other factors.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent liabilities in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, receivables valuation, revenue recognition, loyalty program reward point and gift card breakage, sales returns, inventory valuation, asset useful lives, equity and debt securities valuation, income taxes, stock-based compensation, performance-based compensation, self-funded health insurance liabilities, and contingencies. Although these estimates are based on our best knowledge of current events and actions that we may undertake in the future, our accounting of these estimates may change from period to period. To the extent there are differences between these estimates and actual results, our consolidated financial statements may be materially affected.

Change in presentation in the income statement

In the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company changed the presentation for merchant fees associated with customer payments made by credit cards and other payment methods and customer service costs. Under the new presentation, the Company includes such expenses in a separate line in operating expenses labeled, "Customer service and merchant fees", whereas previously, these expenses were included in Cost of goods sold.

The Company concluded that such a change in presentation is preferable in the circumstances because the treatment of these costs as operating expenses is aligned with the changes in business and strategy. The change will also provide greater transparency in the Company's external disclosures and related communications with the market.

Table of Contents

This change in accounting policy has been applied retrospectively, and the unaudited consolidated statements of operations reflect the effect of this accounting principle change for all periods presented. This change in presentation had no impact on Loss before income taxes, Net loss, or Net loss per share of common stock basic or diluted. The consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, consolidated statements of changes in stockholders' equity, and consolidated statements of cash flows were not impacted by this accounting policy change.

The change in presentation to the Company's unaudited consolidated statements of operations were as follows (in thousands):


Three months ended June 30, 2023	Six months ended June 30, 2023
Previously reported	Effect of change	As adjusted	Previously reported	Effect of change	As adjusted
Cost of goods sold	$	327,839	$	(13,197)	$	314,642	$	619,266	$	(25,168)	$	594,098
Gross profit	94,372	13,197	107,569	184,085	25,168	209,253
Customer service and merchant fees	-	13,197	13,197	-	25,168	25,168

Recently issued accounting standards

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires public entities to disclose information about their reportable segments' significant expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis. For public entities, ASU 2023-07 is required to be adopted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. This ASU will likely result in us including the additional required disclosures when adopted.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires public entities to disclose disaggregated information about a reporting entity's effective tax rate reconciliation as well as additional information on income taxes paid. For public entities, ASU 2023-09 is required to be adopted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. This ASU will likely result in us including the additional required disclosures when adopted.

8. BORROWINGS

In March 2020, we entered into two loan agreements. The loan agreements provide a $34.5 million Senior Note, carrying interest at an annual rate of 4.242%, and a $13.0 million Mezzanine Note, carrying interest at an annual rate of 5.002%. The loans carry a blended annual interest rate of 4.45%. The Senior Note is for a 10-year term (stated maturity date is March 6, 2030) and requires interest only payments, with the principal amount and any then unpaid interest due and payable at the end of the 10-year term. The Mezzanine Note has a stated 10-year term, though the agreement requires principal and interest payments monthly over approximately a 46-month payment period. Our debt issuance costs and debt discount are amortized using the straight-line basis which approximates the effective interest method.

In January 2024, we repaid the entire outstanding balance under the Mezzanine Note. As of June 30, 2024, the total outstanding debt on the Senior Note was $34.2 million, net of $281,000 in capitalized debt issuance costs. Our total outstanding debt on the Senior Note is classified as held-for-sale and included in Long-term debt, net held for sale on our consolidated balance sheets. See Note 4-Assets Held for Sale for further information.

The Senior Note includes certain financial and non-financial covenants and are secured by our corporate headquarters and the related land and rank senior to stockholders. The financial covenants require that Beyond maintain a net worth in excess of $15.0 million and minimum liquid assets of $1.0 million for the remainder of the term that the Senior Note is outstanding. We are in compliance with our debt covenants and continue to monitor our ongoing compliance with our debt covenants.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal proceedings and contingencies

From time to time, we are involved in litigation concerning consumer protection, employment, intellectual property, claims under the securities laws, and other commercial matters related to the conduct and operation of our business and the sale of products on our websites. In connection with such litigation, we have been in the past and we may be in the future subject to significant damages. In some instances, other parties may have contractual indemnification obligations to us. However, such contractual obligations may prove unenforceable or non-collectible, and if we cannot enforce or collect on indemnification obligations, we may bear the full responsibility for damages, fees, and costs resulting from such litigation. We may also be subject to penalties and equitable remedies that could force us to alter important business practices. Such litigation could be costly and time consuming and could divert or distract our management and key personnel from our business operations. Due to the uncertainty of litigation and depending on the amount and the timing, an unfavorable resolution of some or all of such matters could materially affect our business, results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. The nature of the loss contingencies relating to claims that have been asserted against us are described below.

Table of Contents

As previously disclosed, in October 2019, we received a subpoena from the SEC requiring us to produce documents and other information related to the Series A-1 Preferred stock dividend we announced to stockholders in June 2019 and requesting copies of trading plans ("10b5-1 plans") intended to comply with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") entered into by certain officers and directors. In December 2019, we received a subpoena from the SEC requesting our insider trading policies and certain employment and consulting agreements. We also received requests from the SEC for our communications with our former Chief Executive Officer and Director, Patrick Byrne, and the matters referenced in the December 2019 subpoenas. In January 2021, we received a subpoena from the SEC requesting information regarding our retail guidance in 2019 and certain communications with current and former executives, board members, and investors. We have continued to receive requests from the SEC related to the matters referenced in the December 2019 subpoenas. We continue to cooperate with the SEC on these matters.

On September 27, 2019, a purported securities class action lawsuit was filed against us and our former Chief Executive Officer and former Chief Financial Officer in the United States District Court of Utah, alleging violations under Section 10(b), Rule 10b-5, Section 20(a), and Section 20A of the Exchange Act. On October 8, 2019, October 17, 2019, October 31, 2019, and November 20, 2019, four similar lawsuits were filed in the same court also naming us and the above referenced former executives as defendants, bringing similar claims under the Exchange Act, and seeking similar relief. These cases were consolidated into a single lawsuit in December 2019. The Court appointed The Mangrove Partners Master Fund Ltd. as lead plaintiff in January 2020. In March 2020, an amended consolidated complaint was filed against us, our former Overstock President (now current President of Beyond, Inc.), our former Chief Executive Officer, and our former Chief Financial Officer. We filed a motion to dismiss and, on September 28, 2020, the court granted our motion and entered judgment in our favor. The plaintiffs filed a motion to amend their complaint on October 23, 2020. The United States District Court of Utah granted the plaintiffs' motion to amend their complaint on January 6, 2021. The plaintiffs filed their amended complaint on January 11, 2021. We filed a motion to dismiss plaintiffs' amended complaint, and on September 20, 2021, the court granted our motion and entered judgment in our favor. On October 18, 2021, the plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal, appealing the ruling of the district court to the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit. We are awaiting a ruling from the Tenth Circuit that heard oral argument on the appeal on February 9, 2023. No estimates of the possible losses or range of losses can be made at this time. We intend to continue to vigorously defend this consolidated action.

On November 22, 2019, a shareholder derivative suit was filed against us and certain past and present directors and officers of ours in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, with allegations that include: (i) breach of fiduciary duties, (ii) unjust enrichment, (iii) insider selling and misappropriation of the Company's information, and (iv) contribution under Sections 10(b) and 21D of the Exchange Act. On December 17, 2019, a similar lawsuit was filed in the same court, naming the same defendants, bringing similar claims, and seeking similar relief. These cases were consolidated into a single lawsuit in January 2020. In March 2020, the court entered a stay on litigation, pending the outcome of the securities class action motion to dismiss. The case remains stayed pending the outcome of the plaintiffs' appeal to the Tenth Circuit in the securities class action mentioned above. No estimates of the possible losses or range of losses can be made at this time. We intend to vigorously defend these actions.

We establish liabilities when a particular contingency is probable and estimable which are included in Accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, our established liabilities were not material.

11. INDEMNIFICATIONS AND GUARANTEES

During our normal course of business, we have made certain indemnities, commitments, and guarantees under which we may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. These indemnities include, but are not limited to, indemnities we entered into in favor of Loan Core Capital Funding Corporation LLC under our building loan agreements, various lessors in connection with facility leases for certain claims arising from such facility or lease, the environmental indemnity we entered into in favor of the lenders under our prior loan agreements, customary indemnification arrangements in underwriting agreements and similar agreements, and indemnities to our directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware. The duration of these indemnities, commitments, and guarantees varies, and in certain cases, is indefinite. In addition, the majority of these indemnities, commitments, and guarantees do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments we could be obligated to make. As such, we are unable to estimate with any reasonableness our potential exposure under these items. We have not recorded any liability for these indemnities, commitments, and guarantees in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. We do, however, accrue losses for any known contingent liability, including those that may arise from indemnification provisions, when future payment is both probable and reasonably estimable.

12. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Common Stock

Each share of common stock has the right to one vote. The holders of common stock are also entitled to receive dividends declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available, subject to prior rights of holders of all classes of stock outstanding having priority rights as to dividends.

JonesTrading Sales Agreement

We entered into a Capital on DemandTMSales Agreement (the "Sales Agreement") dated June 10, 2024 with JonesTrading Institutional Services LLC ("JonesTrading"), under which we may conduct "at the market" public offerings of our common stock. Under the Sales Agreement, JonesTrading, acting as our sales agent or principal, may offer our common stock in the market on a daily basis or otherwise as we request from time to time. We have no obligation to sell shares under the Sales Agreement, but we may do so from time to time. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we did not sell any shares of our common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement. As of June 30, 2024, we had $200.0 million available under our "at the market" sales program.

Stock Repurchase Program

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock under our stock repurchase program. As of June 30, 2024, we had $69.9 million available for future share repurchases under our current repurchase authorization through December 31, 2025.

13. STOCK-BASED AWARDS

We have equity incentive and compensatory plans that provide for the grant of stock-based awards, including restricted stock and performance shares to employees and board members and provide employees the ability to purchase shares of our common stock through an employee stock purchase plan. Employee accounting applies to equity incentives and compensation granted by the Company to its own employees. When an award is forfeited prior to the vesting date, we recognize an adjustment for the previously recognized expense in the period of the forfeiture.

Stock-based compensation expense is classified within the corresponding operating expense categories on our consolidated statements of operations as follows (in thousands):


Three months ended June 30,	Six months ended June 30,
	2024	2023	2024	2023
Cost of goods sold	$	3	$	11	$	3	$	30

Beyond restricted stock unit awards

The Beyond, Inc. Amended and Restated 2005 Equity Incentive Plan provides for the grant of restricted stock units and other types of equity awards to employees and directors of the Company. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approves grants of restricted stock unit awards to our officers, board members and employees. These restricted stock unit awards generally vest over three years at 33.3% at the end of the first year, 33.3% at the end of the second year and 33.4% at the end of the third year, subject to the recipient's continuing service to us. During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, we changed our vesting schedule for newly granted restricted stock units from three years to four years. These restricted stock unit awards will vest at 25% each year. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we granted 256,064 restricted stock awards with a cumulative grant date fair value of $7.7 million under the new vesting schedule.

Table of Contents

The cost of restricted stock units is determined using the fair value of our common stock on the date of the grant and compensation expense is either recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting schedule or on an accelerated schedule when vesting of restricted stock awards exceeds a straight-line basis. The cumulative amount of compensation expense recognized at any point in time is at least equal to the portion of the grant date fair value of the award that is vested at that date.

Performance Shares

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we granted 1,472,500 performance-based shares ("PSUs") to our executive management team. A portion of each grant of PSUs (25%) is eligible to vest based on our net revenue performance and the remaining portion (75%) is eligible to vest based on our stock price performance. The PSUs tied to stock price performance will be eligible to vest in three installments upon the achievement of three separate stock price hurdles during the three-year period following the grant date, with 33% of the PSUs earned if the average per-share closing price of our common stock over any 20 consecutive trading day period equals or exceeds $40.00 per share (but in no event prior to the first anniversary of the grant date), 33% of the PSUs earned if the average per-share closing price of our common stock over any 20 consecutive trading day period equals or exceeds $50.00 per share (but in no event prior to the second anniversary of the grant date), and 34% of the PSUs earned if the average per share closing price of our common stock over any 20 consecutive trading day period equals or exceeds $60.00 per share (but in no event prior to the third anniversary of the grant date), in each case subject to the recipient's continued service through the vesting date. If a stock price hurdle is not achieved during the three years following the grant date, the portion of the award tied to such stock price hurdle will be forfeited.

The PSUs tied to net revenue performance will vest based on our net revenue over three years, with one-third of the PSUs eligible to vest on each of the first, second, and third anniversaries of the grant date, subject to the recipient's continued service through the vesting date. To be eligible to vest in any tranche of the PSUs tied to net revenue performance, we must meet the GAAP net revenue goal established for the applicable year.

For the portion of the PSUs that vest based on our net revenue performance, we recognize expense as compensation cost, the fair value on the date of grant over the performance period, taking into account the probability that we will satisfy the performance goals. For the portion of the PSUs that vest based on stock price hurdles, which is a market condition, we use a Monte Carlo valuation model to estimate the fair value as of the date of grant and expense compensation cost over the vesting period regardless of whether the market condition is ultimately satisfied.

Stock-based compensation related to the PSUs is included in the stock-based compensation expense table above combined with the expense associated with our restricted stock units, performance share options, and ESPP. Stock-based compensation related to the PSUs was $1.8 million and $3.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively.

Performance Share Options

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we granted a performance-based option to purchase 2,250,000 shares of our common stock to our Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors (the "Performance Share Option"). The Performance Share Option will be eligible to vest in three installments upon the achievement of three separate stock price hurdles during the four-year period following the grant date, with 500,000 of the shares subject to the Performance Share Option, having an exercise price of $45.00 per share, becoming vested if the average per-share closing price of our common stock over any 20 consecutive trading day period following the grant date but on or prior to the second anniversary of the grant date equals or exceeds $45.00 per share (but in no event will this tranche vest prior to the first anniversary of the grant date); 750,000 of the shares subject to the Performance Share Option, having an exercise price of $50.00 per share, becoming vested if the average per-share closing price of our common stock over any 20 consecutive trading day period following the grant date but on or prior to the third anniversary of the grant date equals or exceeds $50.00 per share (but in no event will this tranche vest prior to the second anniversary of the grant date); and 1,000,000 of the shares subject to the Performance Share Option, having an exercise price of $60.00 per share, becoming vested if the average per-share closing price of our common stock over any 20 consecutive trading day period following the grant date but on or prior to the fourth anniversary of the grant date equals or exceeds $60.00 per share (but in no event will this tranche vest prior to the third anniversary of the grant date), in each case subject to the Executive Chairman's continued service through the vesting date. If a stock price hurdle is not achieved during the performance period following the grant date, the portion of the award tied to such stock price hurdle will be forfeited.

Table of Contents

The fair value of the Performance Share Option is determined using a Monte Carlo valuation model to estimate the fair value as of the date of grant and we will expense compensation cost over the vesting period regardless of whether the market condition is ultimately satisfied.

Stock-based compensation related to the Performance Share Option is included in stock-based compensation expense table above combined with the expense associated with our restricted stock units, PSUs, and ESPP. Stock-based compensation related to the performance share options was $438,000 for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

The following table summarizes restricted stock unit, PSU, and Performance Share Option award activity (in thousands, except per share data):

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Purchases under the 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "ESPP") during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were 56,575 shares and 68,011 shares, respectively, at an average purchase price per share of $16.53 and $16.46, respectively. At June 30, 2024, approximately 2.7 million shares of common stock remained available under the ESPP.

Stock-based compensation related to the ESPP is included in the stock-based compensation expense table above combined with the expense associated with our restricted stock units, PSUs, and performance share options. Stock-based compensation related to the ESPP was $305,000 and $515,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $651,000 and $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Executive Commentary

This executive commentary is intended to provide investors with a view of our business through the eyes of our management. As an executive commentary, it necessarily focuses on selected aspects of our business. This executive commentary is intended as a supplement to, but not a substitute for, the more detailed discussion of our business included elsewhere herein. Investors are cautioned to read our entire "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," our interim and audited financial statements, and the discussion of our business and risk factors and other information included elsewhere or incorporated in this report. This executive commentary includes forward-looking statements, and investors are cautioned to read "Special Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."

Revenue decreased 5.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023. This decrease was primarily due to a 13% decrease in average order value. The decrease was partially offset by an 8% increase in orders delivered. The decrease in average order value was largely driven by orders mixing into categories with lower average unit retail price. The increase in orders delivered was driven by growth in active customers, partially offset by macroeconomic factors impacting consumer sentiment and a shift in consumer spending preferences.

Gross profit decreased 25.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023, primarily due to a decrease in gross margin. Gross margin decreased to 20.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 25.5% for the same period in 2023, primarily due to increased promotional discounting and carrier costs.

Sales and marketing expenses as a percent of revenue increased from 11.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to 16.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to increased performance marketing expense and increased brand advertising.

Technology expenses totaled $27.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, a $364,000 decrease compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to a reduction in staff-related expenses.

General and administrative expenses decreased $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to a reduction in staff-related and third-party expenses.

Customer service and merchant fees increased $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to increased outsourced labor as a result of increased order volume and increased credit card costs driven by a shift in payment mix and increased order volume.

Our consolidated cash and cash equivalents balance decreased from $302.6 million as of December 31, 2023, to $186.2 million as of June 30, 2024.

Additional commentary related to macroeconomic trends

We continue to monitor recent macroeconomic trends, including, but not limited to, geopolitical events, including the upcoming U.S. presidential election, higher interest rates, and inflation. These events have and may continue to negatively impact consumer confidence and consumer spending, which have and may continue to adversely affect our business and our results of operations. Due to the uncertain and constantly evolving nature and volatility created by these disruptions to global economic activities, we cannot currently predict the long-term impact of these events on our operations and financial results. As of June 30, 2024, the challenges arising from these events have not adversely affected our liquidity or capacity to service our debt, nor have these conditions required us to reduce our capital expenditures.

(1) In the first quarter of fiscal 2024, we changed our presentation for merchant fees associated with customer payments made by credit cards and other payment methods and customer service costs. Under the new presentation, we include such expenses in a separate line in operating expenses labeled, "Customer service and merchant fees," whereas previously, these expenses were included in "Merchant fees, customer service, and other" as a component of Cost of goods sold. See Note 2-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1, Part I, Financial Statements (Unaudited) of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The 5.7% decrease in net revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, was primarily due to a 13% decrease in average order value. The decrease was partially offset by an 8% increase in orders delivered. The decrease in average order value was largely driven by orders mixing into categories with lower average unit retail price. The increase in orders delivered was driven by growth in active customers, partially offset by macroeconomic factors impacting consumer sentiment and a shift in consumer spending preferences.

The 2.9% decrease in net revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, was primarily due to a 17% decrease in average order value. The decrease was partially offset by an 18% increase in orders delivered. The decrease in average order value was largely driven by orders mixing into categories with lower average unit retail price. The increase in orders delivered was driven by growth in active customers, partially offset by macroeconomic factors impacting consumer sentiment and a shift in consumer spending preferences.

International net revenues were less than 6% of total net revenues for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Change in estimate of average transit times (days)

Our revenue related to merchandise sales is recognized upon delivery to our customers. As we ship high volumes of packages through multiple carriers, it is not practical for us to track the actual delivery date of each shipment. Therefore, we use estimates to determine which shipments are delivered and, therefore, recognized as revenue at the end of the period. Our delivery date estimates are based on average shipping transit times. We review and update our estimates on a quarterly basis based on our actual transit time experience. However, actual shipping times may differ from our estimates, which can be further impacted by uncertainty, volatility, and any disruption to our carriers caused by certain macroeconomic conditions, such as supply chain challenges, inflation, rising interest rates, climate and weather events, or geopolitical events.

The following table shows the effect that hypothetical changes in the estimate of average shipping transit times would have had on the reported amount of revenue and income before income taxes (in thousands):


	Three months ended June 30, 2024
Change in the Estimate of Average Transit Times (Days)	Increase (Decrease) Revenue	Increase (Decrease) Income Before Income Taxes
2	$	(10,756)	$	(1,233)

As reported	As reported	As reported
-1	$	3,390	$	389
-2	$	6,531	$	749

Gross profit and gross margin

Our overall gross margins fluctuate based on factors such as competitive pricing; product costs; discounting; product mix of sales; advertising revenue and our marketing allowance program; and operational and fulfillment costs which include costs incurred to operate and staff our warehouses, including rent and depreciation expense associated with these facilities, costs to receive, inspect, pick, and prepare customer order for delivery, and direct and indirect labor costs including payroll, payroll-related benefits, and stock-based compensation, all of which we include as costs in calculating gross margin.

Gross margins for the past six quarterly periods and fiscal year ending 2023 were:


	Q1 2023	Q2 2023	Q3 2023	Q4 2023	FY 2023	Q1 2024	Q2 2024
Gross margin	26.7	%	25.5	%	22.2	%	19.2	%	23.4	%	19.5	%	20.1	%

Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased 25.5% compared to the same period in 2023, primarily due to a decrease in gross margin. Gross margin decreased to 20.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 25.5% for the same period in 2023, primarily due to increased promotional discounting and carrier costs.

Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2024 decreased 26.2% compared to the same period in 2023, primarily due to a decrease in gross margin. Gross margin decreased to 19.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 26.0% for the same period in 2023, primarily due to increased promotional discounting and carrier costs.

Operating expenses

Sales and marketing expenses

We use a variety of online advertising channels to attract new and repeat customers, including search engine marketing, personalized emails, mobile app, loyalty program, affiliate marketing, display banners, and social media. We also build our brand awareness through linear and streaming TV advertising.

Costs associated with our discounted shipping and other promotions, such as coupons, are not included in sales and marketing expenses. Rather, they are accounted for as a reduction in revenue as they reduce the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for goods or services and therefore affect net revenues and gross margin. We consider these promotions to be an effective marketing tool.

The 500 basis point increase in sales and marketing expenses as a percent of net revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, was primarily due to increased performance marketing expense and increased brand advertising.

The 520 basis point increase in sales and marketing expenses as a percent of net revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, was primarily due to increased performance marketing expense and increased brand advertising.

Technology expenses

We seek to deploy our capital resources efficiently in technology to support operations, including private and public cloud, web services, customer support solutions, and product search. We aim to enhance the customer experience by investing in technology, including investing in machine learning algorithms and generative AI, improving our process automation and efficiency, modernizing and expanding our systems, and supporting and expanding our logistics infrastructure. We expect to continue to incur technology expenses to support these efforts and these expenditures may continue to be material.

The frequency and variety of cyberattacks on our websites, enterprise systems, services, and on third parties we use to support our technology continues to increase. The impact of such attacks, their costs, and the costs we incur to protect ourselves against future attacks, have not been material to date. However, we consider the risk introduced by cyberattacks to be serious and will continue to incur costs related to efforts to protect ourselves against them.

The following table summarizes our technology expenses (in thousands):


	Three months ended June 30,	Six months ended June 30,

Customer service and merchant fees

In the first quarter of fiscal 2024, we changed our presentation for merchant fees associated with customer payments made by credit cards and other payment methods and customer service costs. Under the new presentation, we include such expenses in a separate line in operating expenses labeled, "Customer service and merchant fees," whereas previously, these expenses were included in Cost of goods sold. See Note 2-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1, Part I, Financial Statements (Unaudited) of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Customer service and merchant fees include customer service costs and merchant processing fees associated with customer payments made by credit cards and other payment methods and other variable fees. Customer service and merchant fees as a percent of net revenue may vary due to several factors, such as our ability to effectively manage customer service costs and merchant fees.

The following table summarizes our customer service and merchant fees (in thousands):


	Three months ended June 30,	Six months ended June 30,
	2024	2023	2024	2023
Customer service and merchant fees	$	15,006	$	13,197	$	28,949	$	25,168

Customer service and merchant fees	13.7	%	15.0	%
Customer service and merchant fees as a percent of net revenue	3.8	%	3.1	%	3.7	%	3.1	%

The $1.8 million increase in customer service and merchant fees for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, was primarily due to increased outsourced labor as a result of increased order volume and increased credit card costs driven by a shift in payment mix and increased order volume.

The $3.8 million increase in customer service and merchant fees for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023 was primarily due to increased outsourced labor as a result of increased order volume and increased credit card costs driven by a shift in payment mix and increased order volume.

Other income (expense), net

The $82.9 million change in other income (expense), net for the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023, was primarily due to a $72.9 million decrease in loss recognized from our equity method securities and a $10.3 million gain on the sale of intangible assets related to the Wamsutta brand.

The $71.5 million change in other income (expense), net for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023, was primarily due to a $61.6 million decrease in loss recognized from our equity method securities and a $10.3 million gain on the sale of intangible assets related to the Wamsutta brand.

Income taxes

Our income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of our annual effective tax rate adjusted for discrete items, if any, for relevant interim periods. We update our estimate of the annual effective tax rate each quarter and make cumulative adjustments if our estimated annual effective tax rate changes.

Our quarterly tax provision and our quarterly estimate of our annual effective tax rate are subject to significant variations due to several factors including: variability in predicting our pre-tax and taxable income, the mix of jurisdictions to which those items relate, relative changes in expenses or losses for which tax benefits are limited or not recognized, how we do business, fluctuations in our stock price, economic outlook, political climate, and other conditions such as supply chain challenges, inflation, rising interest rates, and geopolitical events. In addition, changes in laws, regulations, and administrative practices will impact our rate. Our effective tax rate can be volatile based on the amount of pre-tax income. For example, the impact of discrete items on our effective tax rate is greater when pre-tax income is lower.

Our provision (benefit) for income tax for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $117,000 and $(8.4) million, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was (0.3)% and 10.2%, respectively. Our provision (benefit) for income tax for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $446,000 and $(11.3) million, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was (0.4)% and 11.8%, respectively. Our tax provision and rate changed during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023, and differs from the statutory federal income tax rate of 21% primarily due to year-to-date losses on our retail operations for which tax benefits are limited.

Each quarter we assess on a jurisdictional basis whether it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets will be realized under ASC Topic 740. We have no carryback ability, and therefore we must rely on future taxable income, including tax planning strategies and future reversals of taxable temporary differences, to recover our deferred tax assets. We assess available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether we will generate sufficient future taxable income to use our existing deferred tax assets. A significant piece of objective negative evidence evaluated as of June 30, 2024, is the cumulative loss position over a three-year period generated by our U.S. retail operations. On the basis of this evaluation, we maintain a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets for the U.S. jurisdiction, not supported by reversals of taxable temporary differences. We intend to continue maintaining a valuation allowance on our net U.S. deferred tax assets until there is sufficient evidence to support the reversal of all or some portion of these allowances. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable could be adjusted if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present and additional weight is given to subjective evidence such as our projections for growth. We will continue to monitor the need for a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis.

The OECD has issued Pillar Two model rules introducing a new global minimum tax of 15% intended to be effective on January 1, 2024. While the U.S. has not yet adopted the Pillar Two rules, various other governments around the world have enacted such legislation. As currently designed, we expect Pillar Two will ultimately apply to us. Considering we do not currently have material operations in jurisdictions with tax rates lower than the Pillar Two minimum, we do not expect these to materially increase our global tax costs based on how we currently do business. There remains uncertainty as to the final Pillar Two model rules and their application. We will continue to monitor U.S. and global legislative action related to Pillar Two for potential impacts.

As we repatriate foreign earnings for use in the United States, the distributions are generally exempt from federal and foreign income taxes but may be subject to certain state taxes. As of June 30, 2024, the cumulative amount of foreign earnings considered permanently reinvested upon which taxes have not been provided, and the corresponding unrecognized deferred tax liability, was not material.

Table of Contents

We are subject to taxation in the United States and multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. Tax years beginning in 2019 are subject to examination by taxing authorities, although net operating loss and credit carryforwards from all years are subject to examinations and adjustments for at least three years following the year in which the attributes are used.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We believe that our cash and cash equivalents currently on hand and expected cash flows from future operations will be sufficient to continue operations for at least the next twelve months. We continue to monitor, evaluate, and manage our operating plans, forecasts, and liquidity considering the most recent developments driven by macroeconomic conditions, such as supply chain challenges, inflation, rising interest rates, and geopolitical events. We proactively seek opportunities to improve the efficiency of our operations and have in the past and may in the future take steps to realize internal cost savings, including aligning our staffing needs, creating a more variable cost structure to better support our current and expected future levels of operations and process streamlining.

We periodically evaluate opportunities to repurchase our equity securities, obtain credit facilities, or issue additional debt or equity securities, which may impact our future operations and liquidity. In addition, we may, from time to time, consider the investment in, or acquisition of, complementary businesses, products, services, or technologies to expand our business, any of which might affect our liquidity requirements or cause us to issue additional debt or equity securities that would be dilutive to shareholders.

Current sources of liquidity

Our principal sources of liquidity are existing cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable, net. At June 30, 2024, we had $186.2 million of cash and cash equivalents and $18.7 million of accounts receivable, net.

We entered into a Sales Agreement dated June 10, 2024 with JonesTrading, under which we may conduct "at the market" public offerings of our common stock. Under the Sales Agreement, JonesTrading, acting as our sales agent or principal, may offer our common stock in the market on a daily basis or otherwise as we request from time to time. At June 30, 2024, we had $200.0 million available under our "at the market" sales program.

Cash flow information is as follows (in thousands):

Investing activities	(3,308)	(44,435)
Financing activities	(2,597)	(2,718)

Operating activities

Cash received from customers generally corresponds to our net revenues as our customers primarily use credit cards to buy from us, causing our receivables from these sales transactions to settle quickly. We have payment terms with our partners that generally extend beyond the amount of time necessary to collect proceeds from our customers.

The $110.5 million of net cash used in operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily due to loss from operating activities adjusted for non-cash items of $80.8 million and cash used by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $29.7 million.

The $18.8 million of net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to income from operating activities adjusted for non-cash items of $17.5 million and cash provided by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $1.3 million.

For information regarding our financing agreements, see Note 8-Borrowings, in the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1, Part I, Financial Statements (Unaudited) of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Tax contingencies

We are involved in various tax matters, the outcomes of which are uncertain. As of June 30, 2024, accrued tax contingencies were $3.8 million. Changes in federal, foreign, state, and local tax laws may increase our tax contingencies. The timing of the resolution of income tax contingencies is highly uncertain, and the amounts ultimately paid, if any, upon resolution of issues raised by the taxing authorities may differ from the amounts accrued. It is reasonably possible that within the next 12 months we will receive additional assessments by various tax authorities. These assessments may or may not result in changes to our contingencies related to positions on prior years' tax filings.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our financial statements requires that we make estimates and judgments. We base these on historical experience and on other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable. Except as disclosed in Note 2-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1, Part I, Financial Statements (Unaudited) of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates described in Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates, included in Part II, Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in Note 2-Accounting Policies and Supplemental Disclosures, included in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Government Regulation

We are subject to a wide variety of laws, rules, mandates, and regulations, some of which apply or may apply to us as a result of our retail business, and others of which apply to us for other reasons, such as our status as a publicly held company or the places in which we sell certain types or amounts of products or services. Our retail business is subject to general business regulations and laws, regulations and laws specifically governing the internet, ecommerce, and other services we offer. Existing and future laws and regulations may result in increasing expense and may impede our growth. Applicable and potentially applicable regulations and laws include regulations and laws regarding taxation, privacy, data protection, pricing, content, copyrights, distribution, mobile communications, electronic device certification, electronic waste, energy consumption, environmental regulation, electronic contracts and other communications, competition, consumer protection, employment, import and export matters, information reporting requirements, access to our services and facilities, the design and operation of websites, health, safety, and sanitation standards, the characteristics and quality of products and services, product labeling and unfair and deceptive trade practices.

Our efforts to expand our retail business outside of the U.S. expose us to foreign and additional U.S. laws and regulations, including but not limited to, laws and regulations relating to taxation, business licensing or certification requirements, advertising practices, online services, the importation of specified or proscribed items, importation quotas, consumer protection, environmental protection, intellectual property rights, consumer and data protection, privacy, encryption, restrictions on pricing or discounts, and the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and other applicable U.S. and foreign laws prohibiting corrupt payments to government officials and other third parties.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk from interest rate changes, foreign currency fluctuations, and changes in the market values of our securities. Information relating to quantitative and qualitative disclosures about these market risks is set forth below.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

The fair value of our cash and cash equivalents (highly liquid instruments with a remaining maturity of 90 days or less at the date of purchase) would not be significantly affected by either an increase or decrease in interest rates due mainly to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Our Senior Note carries a fixed annual interest rate of 4.242%. As a result, we have no material direct financial statement risk associated with changes in interest rates.

Foreign Currency Risk

Most of our sales and operating expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars, and therefore, our net revenue and operating expenses are not currently subject to significant foreign currency risk. As we grow our operations, our exposure to foreign currency risk could become more significant.

Inflation

Increases in commodity and shipping prices and energy and labor costs have resulted in inflationary pressures across various parts of our business and operations, including our partners and supply chain. We continue to monitor the impact of inflation to minimize its effects on our customers. We work with our partners to limit the amount of cost increases that are passed on through higher pricing. If costs borne by the Company or our partners were to be subject to incremental inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through pricing actions or other cost efficiency measures. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations. While it is difficult to accurately measure the impact of inflation due to the imprecise nature of the estimates required, we believe the effects of inflation, if any, on our historical results of operations and financial condition have been immaterial. We cannot assure you, however, that our results of operations and financial condition will not be materially impacted by inflation in the future.

Investment Risk

The fair values of our equity and debt securities may be subject to fluctuations due to volatility of the stock market in general, investment-specific circumstances, and changes in general economic conditions. At June 30, 2024, our recorded value in equity securities of private companies was $129.7 million. At June 30, 2024, $32.3 million of our equity securities and $10.7 million of our debt securities are of private companies, recorded at fair value using Level 3 inputs. Our fair value assessment of private companies includes a review of recent operating results and trends, recent sales/acquisitions of the securities, and other publicly available data. Valuations of private companies are inherently more complex due to the lack of readily available market data. As such, we believe that providing a sensitivity analysis is not practicable. These investments valued using Level 3 inputs represent 22.7% of assets measured at fair value. See Note 3-Fair Value Measurement for further information. For our equity interest in Medici Ventures, L.P., we record our proportionate share of the entity's reported net income or loss, which reflects the fair value changes of the underlying investments of the entity and any other income or losses of the entity.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as required by Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Limitations on Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Management does not expect, however, that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent or detect all error and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we are involved in, or become subject to litigation or other legal proceedings concerning consumer protection, employment, privacy, intellectual property, claims under the securities laws, and other commercial matters related to the conduct and operation of our business and the sale of products on our websites. We also prosecute lawsuits to enforce our legal rights. In connection with such litigation or other legal proceedings, we have been in the past and we may be in the future subject to significant damages, associated costs, or equitable remedies relating to the operation of our business. Such litigation could be costly and time consuming and could divert or distract our management and key personnel from our business operations. Due to the uncertainty of litigation and depending on the amount and the timing, an unfavorable resolution of some or all of such matters could materially affect our business, results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. For additional details, see the information set forth under Item I of Part I, Financial Statements (Unaudited)-Note 10-Commitments and Contingencies, subheading Legal Proceedings and Contingencies, contained in the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated by reference in answer to this Item.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Any investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Please consider the following risk factors and the risk factors previously disclosed in Part 1, Item 1A, "Risk Factors," of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 carefully. If any one or more of such risks were to occur, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations, and the market price of our securities could decrease significantly. Statements to the effect that an event could or would harm our business (or have an adverse effect on our business or similar statements) mean that the event could or would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations, which in turn could or would have a material adverse effect on the market price of our securities. Many of the risks we face involve more than one type of risk. Consequently, you should carefully read all of the risk factors below, the risk factors described in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and in any reports we file with the SEC after we file this Form 10-Q, before making any decision to acquire or hold our securities.

Other than the risk factors set forth below, there are no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors," of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Our business depends on the Internet, our infrastructure and transaction-processing systems.

We are completely dependent on our infrastructure and on the availability, reliability and security of the Internet and related systems. Although we have migrated and continue to migrate some of our computer systems and operations to the public cloud, a substantial majority of our computer and communications infrastructure is running in our private cloud on hardware that is located at a single Beyond owned and operated facility which we are currently marketing for sale. Our systems and operations are vulnerable to damage or interruption from fire, flood, power loss, telecommunications failure, terrorist attacks, cyberattacks, acts of war, break-ins, earthquake and similar events. Our back-up facility by itself is not adequate to support fulfillment of sales orders. Our servers and applications are vulnerable to malware, physical or electronic break-ins, internal sabotage, and other disruptions, the occurrence of any of which could lead to interruptions, delays, loss of critical data or the inability to accept and fulfill customer orders. Any internal or critical third-party system interruption that results in the unavailability of our websites or our mobile app or reduced performance of our transaction systems could interrupt or substantially reduce our ability to conduct our business. We have experienced periodic systems interruptions due to server failure, application failure, power failure and intentional cyberattacks in the past, and may experience additional interruptions or failures in the future. Any failure or impairment of our infrastructure or of the availability of the Internet or related systems caused by any source, including the transfer of our hardware to another location or the housing or maintenance of our hardware by a third party if we sell the facility where it is now located, could have a material adverse effect on our financial results, business and prospects. In addition, the occurrence of any event that would adversely affect ecommerce or discourage or prevent consumers from shopping online or via mobile apps could significantly decrease the volume of our sales.

We have an evolving business model, which increases the complexity of our business.

We are modifying and expanding the types of products and services offered for sale on our websites, may further expand offerings in the future, and we do not know whether any of our modifications or expansions will be successful. From time to time, we have also modified aspects of our business model relating to our product mix and the mix of direct versus

Table of Contents

partner sourcing of the products offered for sale. Products purchased for direct sale come with additional risks and uncertainties, including costs to maintain inventory, risk of loss from theft or otherwise, and risks associated with the marketing and labeling of products. In addition, we continue to experiment with new technologies to enhance the customer experience and iterate on delivery of new features. The additions and modifications to our business have increased the complexity of our business and impacted, and may in the future materially impact, our management, personnel, operations, systems, technical performance, financial resources, and internal control and reporting functions. Further, our efforts to right-size our cost structure and create a more flexible technology stack may result in the introduction of technologies that are less mature or stable, which could cause problems in our website or back-end logistics systems or compliance efforts. Further, any new business, products or services, technology, or website we launch that is not favorably received by consumers could damage our reputation or our brand. The occurrence of any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our financial results, business, prospects, and the trading prices of our securities.

The changing job market, the changes in our leadership team, the change in our compensation approach, the loss of key personnel, the changing job structure, or any inability to attract, retain and engage key personnel could affect our ability to successfully grow our business.

Our performance is substantially dependent on the continued service and performance of our senior management, our board of directors, and other key personnel. We underwent significant changes to our executive management team and our board of directors in 2023and 2024, with certain key positions still remaining open. We also underwent changes to our workforce in 2023,when we had a reduction in force, and in 2024, when we had structural changes to the broader organization, including the elimination of the Co-Chief Executive roles and departure of our former Division Chief Executive Officer, Bed Bath & Beyond, the expansion of the Executive Chairman role, and the elimination of the dual Chief Merchant roles. Additionally, in 2023,adjusted our approach to equity compensation provided to our executives from a time-based approach to a performance-based approach. Uncertainties, including any substantial changes in leadership, or any negative impacts associated with performance-based compensation, may cause employees to seek other opportunities or impair our ability to recruit new employees. With more businesses allowing employees to work remotely, we are forced to compete with businesses in other locations and states to attract and retain key employees. Currently, most of our local workforce works a hybrid schedule, where they work onsite three days each week and perform the remaining workdays in that week remotely. We are planning to sell our corporate headquarters, which if completed, could result in more remote work. The changes in leadership, the reduction in force, the structural changes to our organization, the changed approach to performance-based compensation, and the uncertainty of the future job structure could create consequences such as a lack of productivity, a lack of engagement, employee dissatisfaction, and employee fatigue and could result in key employees finding other employers more attractive than working for our Company. The loss of, or the inability to retain or engage the services of key employees for any reason, could harm our business. Our future success depends on our ability to identify, attract, hire, train, engage, retain, and motivate highly-skilled personnel. Our failure to attract, retain, and engage the personnel necessary to successfully operate our business could have a material adverse effect on our financial results, business and prospects.
