MarketBeat
Interested in ThredUp Inc.? Here are five stocks we like better. Q2 revenue rose 16.9% to $90.8 million, supported by 21% growth in active buyers and 22% growth in orders. Adjusted EBITDA improved to $4.8 million, though ThredUp still posted a $5.9 million GAAP net loss. Management cited a more price-sensitive consumer environment and plans increased promotions, particularly on older inventory. Promotions created a $3 million Q2 revenue headwind and are expected to reduce second-half revenue by approximately $7 million. ThredUp lowered its second-half and full-year 2026 outlook, while still expecting full-year revenue of $344.4 million to $348.4 million and positive cash flow. The company continues investing in premium supply, brand partnerships, peer-to-peer listings and AI personalization tools. 3 Stocks Under $5 With Strong Analyst Upside Potential ThredUp (NASDAQ:TDUP) reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of $90.8 million, up 16.9% from a year earlier, as active buyers and orders grew at double-digit rates. The online resale company said the results exceeded its internal expectations, though management lowered its outlook for the second half as it plans to use more promotions to support engagement among price-sensitive customers. Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder James Reinhart said the consumer environment was more difficult than expected, particularly in June and into July. While traffic remained strong and the company recorded its highest-ever quarterly new-buyer acquisition, some shoppers needed greater incentives to complete purchases. → SpaceX’s First Earnings Report Could Decide Whether Shorts or Bulls Have Control 3 Stocks You’ll Wish You Bought Before 2026 “We had to be incrementally promotional to drive conversion among our most price-sensitive shoppers,” Reinhart said.

Adjusted EBITDA totaled $4.8 million, or 5.3% of revenue, representing a 140-basis-point improvement from the prior year, according to Chief Financial Officer Sean Sobers. Revenue: $90.8 million, up 16.9% year over year. Gross margin: 79.9%, up 40 basis points year over year. GAAP net loss: $5.9 million. Adjusted EBITDA: $4.8 million, or 5.3% of revenue. Cash and securities at quarter-end: $57.4 million, up from $54.4 million at the beginning of the quarter. Cash generated during the quarter: $3 million. Capital expenditures: $2.7 million. Sobers attributed gross-margin improvement to greater logistics efficiency. He said the company expects capital spending in 2026 to remain at levels similar to those in 2025. → Meta’s Earnings Drop Shows Wall Street Wants More Than Ad Growth Management said its second-half strategy is intended to preserve engagement without discounting newly listed merchandise. Reinhart said the company is emphasizing discounts on aging inventory rather than fresh products, which it views as important to maintaining customers’ willingness to pay for new marketplace listings. The pressure has been concentrated among shoppers earning less than $60,000 annually, Reinhart said, describing that cohort as less than 20% of the company’s customer base. He pointed to higher gas prices related to Middle East conflict as a factor weighing on budget-conscious consumers. At the same time, ThredUp said it is shifting its buyer mix toward more premium customers. The company has reduced spending on Google PMax in favor of Meta and Pinterest, where it said customer lifetime values are higher and acquisition costs have declined. New-customer volume from Meta rose 130% year over year, while Pinterest volume increased 145%. Reinhart said average order values are expected to decline somewhat in the back half of the year because of promotional activity, while orders and active-buyer growth are expected to remain strong. The company does not plan to materially alter its marketing approach in the fourth quarter relative to last year, he added. ThredUp lowered its revenue and adjusted EBITDA-margin expectations for the rest of 2026, citing an estimated $7 million revenue headwind from elevated promotions in the second half. Sobers said the EBITDA effect reflects both lower revenue and the company’s continued investments in marketing and processing. Third quarter: Revenue of $87 million to $89 million, representing 7% year-over-year growth at the midpoint; gross margin of 78% to 79%; and adjusted EBITDA of about 4% of revenue. Fourth quarter: Revenue of $85 million to $87 million, representing 8% growth at the midpoint; gross margin of 77.5% to 78.5%; and adjusted EBITDA of about 6% of revenue. Full year: Revenue of $344.4 million to $348.4 million, representing 11% growth at the midpoint; gross margin of 78.7% to 79.1%; and adjusted EBITDA of about 4.7% of revenue. The company expects to remain cash-flow positive for the full year. Reinhart said the updated outlook is intended to avoid relying on favorable macroeconomic shifts, seasonal acceleration and flawless execution to meet the company’s previous expectations. On the supply side, ThredUp said active sellers reached record levels and premium bag items increased 32% year over year, reaching 12% of the company’s overall mix. The company is seeking a higher premium mix by year-end through seller incentives, new acquisition channels and seller-experience investments. In June, ThredUp opened its direct-listings peer-to-peer offering to all marketplace users. Since then, listed items have increased 89% month over month, surpassing 100,000 items. The average listing price was $80. Reinhart said direct listings have a more premium product mix than the managed marketplace, though sell-through rates are slower, consistent with other peer-to-peer marketplaces. The company also introduced three Resale-as-a-Service storefronts during the quarter for Steve Madden, Dolce Vita and Betsey Johnson. Reinhart said each storefront can attract sellers who have an existing relationship with those brands. He added that ThredUp plans to focus its Resale-as-a-Service efforts on more elevated brands, following a spring initiative with Reformation. ThredUp continued to emphasize AI-driven shopping tools. Its new real-time personalization engine adjusts inventory feeds based on user intent within seconds, and an initial A/B test produced a 5% increase in item engagement and a 7% increase in profit per buyer among new customers, Reinhart said. The company has also expanded features including Clustering, Exact Match and Notify Me, with Notify Me opt-ins increasing more than 50% week over week since launch. ThredUp, Inc operates an online consignment and thrift platform that enables consumers to buy and sell secondhand clothing and accessories. Through its digital marketplace, the company offers curated selections of apparel for women and children, spanning a broad range of brands and styles. Sellers can order a “Clean Out Kit” to send in items they no longer wear, while buyers benefit from discounted prices and a simplified shopping experience powered by ThredUp's in-house authentication, quality control and logistics capabilities. In addition to its core consumer-to-consumer marketplace, ThredUp has expanded into business-to-business services with its Resale-as-a-Service (RaaS) offering.

We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted to exclude, where applicable in a given period, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, provision for income taxes, severance and other reorganization costs, and gains related to non-marketable equity investment. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenue for the same period. Accordingly, a reconciliation for Adjusted EBITDA in order to calculate forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA margin is not available without unreasonable effort. However, for the third and fourth quarters of 2026 and full year 2026, Depreciation and amortization is expected to be $3.3 million, $3.3 million and $14.0 million, respectively. In addition, for the third and fourth quarters of 2026 and full year 2026, Stock-based compensation expense is expected to be $5.9 million, $5.9 million and $23.3 million, respectively. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could result in projected net loss being materially greater than is indicated by the currently estimated Adjusted EBITDA margin. ThredUp is not providing a quantitative reconciliation for free cash flow estimates on a forward-looking basis because it is unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to provide a meaningful or reasonably accurate calculation or estimation of Net cash provided by operating activities and certain reconciling items on a forward-looking basis, which could be significant to the Company's results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Operating and Business Metrics This press release and the accompanying tables contain non-GAAP financial measures, including: Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, free cash flow, and other operating and business metrics. In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures and other operating and business metrics, are useful in evaluating our operating performance and enhancing an overall understanding of our financial position. We use these measures and metrics to evaluate and assess our operating performance, and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that these non-GAAP financial 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. Our non-GAAP financial measures and other operating and business metrics are presented for supplemental informational purposes only, should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and may be different from similarly-titled non-GAAP financial measures and other operating and business metrics used by other companies. We encourage investors to review our results determined in accordance with GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations for more information. A reconciliation is provided above for Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA to Net loss, the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP. We calculate Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA as Net loss adjusted to exclude, where applicable in a given period, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, provision for income taxes, severance and other reorganization costs, and gains related to non-marketable equity investment. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenue for the same period. A reconciliation is provided above for Non-GAAP free cash flow to Net cash provided by operating activities, the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP. We calculate Non-GAAP free cash flow as Net cash provided by operating activities reduced by Purchases of property and equipment. An Active Buyer is a ThredUp buyer who has made at least one purchase in the last twelve months. A ThredUp buyer is a customer who has created an account and purchased in our marketplaces, including through our RaaS® clients, and is identified by a unique email address. A single person could have multiple ThredUp accounts and count as multiple Active Buyers. Orders are defined as the total number of orders placed by buyers across our marketplaces, including through our RaaS® clients, in a given period, net of cancellations. 1 Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP measures. See “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a detailed reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures and “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Operating and Business Metrics” for a discussion of why we believe these non-GAAP measures are useful.

ThredUp’s (NASDAQ:TDUP) Q2 CY2026 Earnings Results: Revenue In Line With Expectations But Stock Drops 15.5%

StockStory
Online fashion resale marketplace ThredUp (NASDAQ:TDUP) met Wall Street’s revenue expectations in Q2 CY2026, with sales up 16.9% year on year to $90.77 million. On the other hand, next quarter’s revenue guidance of $88 million was less impressive, coming in 5.4% below analysts’ estimates. Its GAAP loss of $0.05 per share was $0.02 below analysts’ consensus estimates. Is now the time to buy ThredUp? Find out in our full research report. Revenue: $90.77 million vs analyst estimates of $90.34 million (16.9% year-on-year growth, in line) EPS (GAAP): -$0.05 vs analyst estimates of -$0.03 ($0.02 miss) Adjusted EBITDA: $4.78 million vs analyst estimates of $4.69 million (5.3% margin, relatively in line) The company dropped its revenue guidance for the full year to $346.4 million at the midpoint from $353.7 million, a 2.1% decrease Operating Margin: -6.7%, in line with the same quarter last year Free Cash Flow was $1.78 million, up from -$2.94 million in the same quarter last year Orders: up 300,000 year on year Market Capitalization: $796.2 million “We're pleased with our Q2 results, which exceeded our expectations across the board," said ThredUp CEO and co-founder James Reinhart. Founded to revolutionize thrifting, ThredUp (NASDAQ:TDUP) is a leading online fashion resale marketplace offering a wide selection of gently-used clothing and accessories. Reviewing a company’s long-term sales performance reveals insights into its quality. Any business can experience short-term success, but top-performing ones enjoy sustained growth for years. Regrettably, ThredUp’s sales grew at a weak 7.3% compounded annual growth rate over the last five years. This was below our standard for the consumer discretionary sector and is a rough starting point for our analysis. We at StockStory place the most emphasis on long-term growth, but within consumer discretionary, a stretched historical view may miss a company riding a successful new product or trend. ThredUp’s annualized revenue growth of 13.2% over the last two years is above its five-year trend, which is encouraging. ThredUp also discloses its number of orders, which reached 1.77 million in the latest quarter. Over the last two years, ThredUp’s orders was flat. Because this number is lower than its revenue growth during the same period, we can see the company’s monetization has risen. This quarter, ThredUp’s year-on-year revenue…Read full document

Company management is currently guiding for a 7.1% year-on-year increase in sales next quarter. Looking further ahead, sell-side analysts expect revenue to grow 11.7% over the next 12 months, a slight deceleration versus the last two years. This projection doesn’t excite us and suggests its products and services will see some demand headwinds. WHILE YOU’RE HERE: The Next Palantir?

Operating margin is an important measure of profitability as it shows the portion of revenue left after accounting for all core expenses — everything from the cost of goods sold to advertising and wages. It’s also useful for comparing profitability across companies with different levels of debt and tax rates because it excludes interest and taxes. ThredUp’s operating margin has been trending up over the last 12 months, but it still averaged negative 8.7% over the last two years. This is due to its large expense base and inefficient cost structure. ThredUp’s operating margin was negative 6.7% this quarter. The company’s consistent lack of profits raises a flag. Revenue trends explain a company’s historical growth, but the long-term change in earnings per share (EPS) points to the profitability of that growth — for example, a company could inflate its sales through excessive spending on advertising and promotions. Although ThredUp’s full-year earnings are still negative, it reduced its losses and improved its EPS by 44.4% annually over the last five years. The next few quarters will be critical for assessing its long-term profitability. In Q2, ThredUp reported EPS of negative $0.05, in line with the same quarter last year. This print missed analysts’ estimates. Over the next 12 months, Wall Street expects ThredUp to improve its earnings losses. Analysts forecast its full-year EPS will improve from negative $0.18 to negative $0.07. We struggled to find many positives in these results. Its EPS was in line and its full-year revenue guidance fell short of Wall Street’s estimates. Overall, this was a weaker quarter. The stock traded down 15.5% to $5.30 immediately after reporting. ThredUp underperformed this quarter, but does that create an opportunity to invest right now? What happened in the latest quarter matters, but not as much as longer-term business quality and valuation, when deciding whether to invest in this stock.

James Reinhart

Good afternoon, everyone. I'm James Reinhart, CEO and Co-Founder of ThredUp. Thank you for joining our second quarter 2026 earnings call. Today, I'll walk through our Q2 results, the key drivers behind them, and how we're thinking about the back half of the year. I'll then hand it over to Sean Sobers, our Chief Financial Officer, to walk through the financials in more detail and provide our outlook for Q3, Q4, and the full year. We'll close with a question-and-answer session. First, let me start with the results. In the second quarter, revenue was $90.8 million, up 16.9% year-over-year. Gross margin was 79.9%, up 40 basis points. Net loss was $5.9 million, and adjusted EBITDA was $4.8 million, or 5.3% of revenue. Active buyers on a trailing 12-month basis also grew 21% year-over-year, while orders were up 22%.

James Reinhart

All of these metrics exceeded our expectations. We're pleased with our Q2 results. This was a tougher consumer environment than we would have expected at the beginning of the year. Despite a record quarter for new buyers acquired and record active buyers, we had to be incrementally promotional to drive conversion among our most price-sensitive shoppers. This approach in Q2 led to lower ASPs and average revenue per buyer. Ultimately, we estimate a $3 million headwind to our top-line results in Q2. Turning to the back half of the year, as we continue to move throughout 2026, our focus remains on the three strategic priorities that I outlined last quarter. Continuing to grow and retain high-value buyers, scaling high-quality, premium supply from a diverse group of sellers, and developing AI technology that helps customers discover and shop across our vast marketplace.

James Reinhart

New buyer growth was again strong, up 13% in the quarter, lapping the 72% growth from the prior year quarter. Q2 was our strongest quarter on record for new buyers acquired. This is especially promising due to the higher expected LTVs of these new buyers and is consistent with our ongoing shift to a more premium buyer. We are continuing to reduce spend on Google PMax in favor of Meta and Pinterest, where LTVs are higher, customer acquisition costs are coming down, and volume is scaling quickly. As such, new customer volume on Meta and Pinterest grew 130% and 145% year-over-year, respectively. Brand is a big part of why that shift is working. We believe that those who discover secondhand through creators and culture, rather than through search or promotions, tend to be stickier over time.

James Reinhart

Our most recent campaign, Dress the Part(y), generated hundreds of millions of earned impressions this June. Proof that we can create an owned cultural moment, not just buy media around one. On the supply side, active sellers grew to record levels, with quality keeping pace. The volume of premium bag items was up 32% year-over-year, representing 12% of the overall mix. We're targeting an even stronger mix by year-end through seller incentives, new acquisition channels for premium sellers, and continuing investment in the seller experience. In June, we opened direct listings, our peer-to-peer offering, to everyone in our marketplace. Since then, items listed are up 89% month-over-month, and there are now more than 100,000 items listed, with an average listing price of $80. While just a small fraction of total available items, we're pleased with the steady organic growth and premium mix of these items.

James Reinhart

Let me turn to Resale-as-a-Service. This quarter, we launched three new brand storefronts, Steve Madden, Dolce Vita, and Betsey Johnson. As a reminder, each new brand gives us access to an entirely new set of sellers. Customers with real affinity for that brand who send us their Clean Out Kits because they trust the storefront carrying a name they already shop. That's a distribution advantage we don't get from any other channel, and it compounds every time we add a new brand to the roster. Let me talk about the product experience. We're now more than two years into our AI transformation work. No longer do we merely, quote, "work on AI products." Rather, they are, quote, "The foundation of everything we build across the enterprise." I'm often asked: What's the biggest impact, short and long term? In the short term, it's efficiency and cost leverage.

James Reinhart

I'm confident that advancements in AI technology will provide significant cost savings for the business by reducing the need to grow headcount as fast and by helping our teams to be more productive. The phase we're entering now is closer to what I think the long-term impact will be, speed. The speed at which we can test, learn, adapt is accelerating. The rate at which we can develop next-generation product experiences, test pricing algorithms, design new back-end operations processes is unlike anything I've seen in my years running the business. Of course, many companies will speed up, the rate of change we will see across consumer experiences will likely accelerate. We think that will only make our unique, defensible, competitive advantages more pronounced.

James Reinhart

Generative AI will commoditize a lot of the technology stack, it will not replace the fact that we still put real clothes on every day. Our continued investments in our supply chain and processing infrastructure, our compounding data advantage, and our trusted marketplace enable us to build world-class buyer and seller experiences. With that context, let me turn to recent product advancements. Over the past several calls, I've walked you through individual features that use AI to make a five million single SKU catalog feel more easily shoppable. I believe the most powerful example for where our technology is going now is with our real-time personalization engine. We see more than 250,000 anonymous sessions a day. Historically, the experience stayed largely static until our systems adapted for the shopper's next visit.

James Reinhart

Our new real-time engine reads intent within seconds, retailers the feed on the very next fetch of inventory. In our first A/B test, that drove a 5% lift in item engagement and a 7% lift in profit per buyer for new customers. It's early, it's a real signal on what this system can unlock. We've also now widely deployed several AI-driven product experience to cut down the overwhelm of shopping second-hand. Clustering, Exact Match, and Notify Me all get at reducing cognitive shopping friction and are especially effective for newer customers. Clustering brings visually similar items together into a single browsing experience, keying off buyer intent and preference.

James Reinhart

Exact Match goes further, aggregates listings of the exact same item into a single product page, where one item means one page, where a user chooses their size, color, or condition, rather than seeing the same item show up as 10 near-identical listings. Both features remove visual redundancy and bring second-hand shopping closer to a traditional e-commerce experience, critical technology for scaling our marketplace. This advancement also unlocks a Notify Me feature. Notify Me turns a sold-out single SKU item from a dead end into a reason to come back once it's restocked. Opt-ins for Notify Me have grown more than 50% week-over-week since its launch. For someone new to resale, this makes our marketplace feel as easy to shop as buying new. Taken together, this is why we believe that advancements in AI create a structural advantage for us.

James Reinhart

It makes our marketplace more fun to shop and more efficient for us to run. Let's look ahead. While Sean will discuss our second half guidance in more detail, I want to be clear that we likely could have maintained our original second half outlook. Doing so would have required just about every variable to fall in our favor. Gas prices to come back down and uncertainty to abate. Seasonal acceleration that has proved to be unpredictable the last few years, flawless execution of price, promotion, and customer targeting. This seemed a high bar, one that could risk investor confidence if even one of these things moved against us. Our view is that the business is executing at a high level, with growing active buyers, strong new buyer and seller growth fundamentals, and an exceptional product pipeline.

James Reinhart

Even with our updated guidance, our two-year average revenue growth rate in the second half of the year is projected to be 16.6%. Our current approach now allows us to stay committed to building durable, compounding performance over time without compromising our long-term vision for short-term gains. With that, I'll turn it over to Sean.

Sean Sobers

Thanks, James. I'll begin with an overview of our results and follow up with guidance for the third and fourth quarters and full year of 2026. I will discuss non-GAAP results throughout my remarks. We're pleased with our second quarter results. Despite a more challenging consumer and macroeconomic environment than we had anticipated, we delivered strong revenue growth, gross margin, and adjusted EBITDA, all of which exceeded our internal expectations. For the second quarter of 2026, revenue totaled $90.8 million, an increase of 16.9% year-over-year. Our performance was primarily driven by strong buyer trends and higher repurchase rates, supported by elevated promotional activity. These drivers resulted in another record quarter for new buyers acquired, with new buyer acquisition up 13.1% year-over-year.

Sean Sobers

We finished the quarter with 1.8 million active buyers for the trailing 12 months, up 21% over last year, while we had 1.9 million orders in the second quarter, up 22% year-over-year. For the second quarter of 2026, gross margin was 79.9%, a 40 basis point increase versus the same quarter last year as a result of improved efficiency and logistics. For the second quarter of 2026, GAAP net loss was $5.9 million compared to GAAP net loss of $5.2 million in the same quarter last year. Adjusted EBITDA was $4.8 million or 5.3% of revenue for the second quarter of 2026, outperforming our internal expectations. Our Q2 result represented a 140 basis point increase over last year. Turning to the balance sheet, we began the quarter with $54.4 million in cash and securities and ended the quarter with $57.4 million.

Sean Sobers

We invested $2.7 million on CapEx and generated $3 million in cash in Q2. We continue to expect similar levels of CapEx investment in 2026 as of last year toward 2025. I'd like to turn to guidance. As James noted, our underlying fundamentals remain strong. In this environment, we are choosing to prioritize buyer engagement, that means investing more in promotions in the second half. We believe protecting buyer engagement is essential to long-term value creation. Because we expect these elevated promotions to create a revenue headwind of approximately $7 million in the second half, we are updating our revenue and EBITDA margin expectations for the balance of the year. In the third quarter, we now expect revenue in the range of $87 million-$89 million, representing 7% year-over-year growth at the midpoint, and a 20.3% two-year average growth rate.

Sean Sobers

Gross margin in the range of 78%-79%, adjusted EBITDA of approximately 4% of revenue, basic weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 132 million shares. In the fourth quarter, we now expect revenue in the range of $85 million-$87 million, representing 8% year-over-year growth at the midpoint, and a 13.2% two-year average growth rate. Gross margins in the range of 77.5%-78.5%, adjusted EBITDA of approximately 6% of revenue, basic weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 133 million shares. For the full year of 2026, we now expect revenue in the range of $344.4 million-$348.4 million, reflecting 11% year-over-year growth at the midpoint, and a 15.5% two-year average growth rate.

Sean Sobers

Gross margin in the range of 78.7%-79.1%, adjusted EBITDA of approximately 4.7% of revenue, representing approximately 30 basis points expansion versus last year, basic weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 131 million shares. Lastly, we expect to continue to be cash flow positive for the full year. As we progress through the back half of 2026 and throughout 2027, we will balance growth investments while planning to drive EBITDA expansion. Despite the temporary macroeconomic friction outside of our control, we remain confident in the core fundamentals of our marketplace, our proven ability to engage buyers, and our path forward towards long-term growth and profitability. James and I are now ready for your questions. Operator, please open the line.

Operator

We will now begin the question and answer session. In order to ask a question, simply press star followed by the number one on your telephone keypad. Our first question will come from the line of Dylan Carden with William Blair. Please go ahead.

Dylan Carden

Yeah. Thank you. I'm curious, just sort of coming off the quarter that you had and with the idea that you're sort of engaging a stickier buyer and presumably incentivizing or stimulating demand through higher promo, why sort of the level of caution that you're embedding in the guide? Maybe if you can speak to what you're kind of currently seeing in the business. That'd be very helpful. Thanks.

James Reinhart

Hey, Dylan. Q2, we beat all of our internal expectations. As I indicated, it was grindy out there in June. It was just more challenging to get customers to convert. We saw lots of visitors, lots of traffic, but you could tell that people needed incentives and promotions to convert. We noticed that through June, and I think as we came into July, we saw some of that same behavior coming out of 4th of July, certainly through the first couple of weeks. I think that we probably could have sort of powered through it, but I think it's going to be challenging, Dylan, in this with some of the segments of customers that have been a little bit more price sensitive.

James Reinhart

I think we just decided to be a little bit more cautious with how we thought about the back half of the year, knowing that we will have to be incrementally promotional to maintain buyer engagement. Again, I think the most important thing when you sort of hit these types of points is to maintain strong cohorts and strong buyers. I think we made the conscious decision to be a little bit more promotional, especially to this segment of more budget shoppers. Which again, I just want to emphasize, it's really that segment of our customer base, which is probably less than 20% at this point, customers making under $60,000 a year. That's really where this is landing. We think that that's going to be temporary, and we're continuing to shift our mix of customers out of that.

James Reinhart

I think it's going to be a little bit of a headwind in the back half of the year. That's why we made the change we did.

Dylan Carden

Yep. Just two follow-ups from that. When you say more promotional, do you mean adjusting price or actually kind of going out with real, more traditional type of discounts or offers? Then just to confirm the hit on the EBITDA margin line. What's sort of driving that as far as your sort of prior outlook for the year? Thanks.

James Reinhart

Sure. I'll let Sean cover the EBITDA one. On price promotion, I appreciate you asking. We're really emphasizing discounts on aging inventory. We used to be able to sell items that, say, were 60 days old or 90 days old at higher prices. What we're finding is that we want to really protect the marketplace willingness to pay of buyers fresh inventory, new listings. We're not discounting that product. We're discounting older inventory, I think that's what's causing us for these elevated price and promotions. To be really direct, the reason why I think that we could have

James Reinhart

We could have maybe squeezed through the back half of the year, we would've had to do things to discount kind of our best fresh inventory that's coming online in ways that I think are unnatural and in ways that I think actually really hurt us in 2027 with customer expectations, willingness to pay. I think this is totally the right strategy. It's just something that we're going to have to navigate for these couple of quarters.

Sean Sobers

Dylan, on the EBITDA side, obviously the biggest hit is revenue and the flow-through from there. If you can kind of just take the revenue that we reduce it to down to the gross margin rate of about 79%, 80%. I think the piece that makes it a little more impactful is that we are staying on the investment mode in marketing and in processing because we believe in the business, and we're very confident this is temporary. Those two together really have an impact on the EBITDA in the short term, in Q3 and in Q4.

Dylan Carden

Appreciate it. Thank you.

Operator

Our next question comes from the line of Oliver Chen with TD Cowen. Please go ahead.

Oliver Chen

Hi, James and Sean. On your comments, what's driving your thoughts that this could be temporary in terms of what you're seeing lately on that price-sensitive consumer? Also, as we think about ASP, what's happening with how we should model ASP in light of what you're seeing as well? Thank you.

James Reinhart

Yeah. Hey, Oliver. I think we think that the higher gas prices that have come from sort of conflict in the Middle East, I think, are weighing on, again, Oliver, this sort of budget customer. The reason why I think it's a little bit more temporary is that we are shifting our mix of customers away from that budget customer. On a percentage basis, that budget customer is as low as a percent of our overall mix as it has been in a very long time. What we're seeing among customers who are making $100,000, $150,000 a year, is that their growth rate is significantly higher than that budget customer. So we are shifting the business into that premium segment. Not luxury by any means, but more premium. So I think our strategy is to sort of move away from having that exposure.

James Reinhart

I do think it's still part of our mix today, which is why we think the combination of gas prices and the combination of the current mix is a temporary thing. As far as average selling prices, I wouldn't move them for 2027. I think we will be a little bit more promotional with some of our older inventory in the back half of 2026. I think in general, the mix of goods is actually improving and prices are going up. Again, we're just discounting this segment of our aging and older inventory.

Oliver Chen

Okay. On the mix strategy, what's limiting that to be even better? Is it supply or demand? It sounds like you're getting good acquisition, but supply also matters too. We talk regularly about AI, what's changed the most since we last talked in AI? It sounds like reinforcement learning is coming into play, can AI offset some of the weaknesses you're seeing in terms of the model?

James Reinhart

Well, yeah, on the mix, you're exactly right. We're shifting the buyer mix up. I think, part of the channel shift into Meta and Pinterest has really proving to be valuable, right? Those customers have significantly higher LTVs than the Google PMax customer. I think as you saw in the prepared remarks, premium as a percent of our mix is also growing, and that is having success. I would say, we're slowly moving the entire marketplace up in that direction. It doesn't happen overnight. I think the general trend is right. On the AI front, I think where the most impactful work we're doing is what I commented on, which is just the ability to real-time personalize browsers. We're seeing lift in that for window shoppers, for our new buyers.

James Reinhart

I think, part of why the acquisition engine is continuing to work as well as it is conversion rate of new visitors. That new visitor conversion rate is being amplified by the work in AI. I do think it is helping, and we're just going to keep executing against that.

Oliver Chen

Thank you. Best regards.

James Reinhart

Thanks.

Operator

Our next question will come from the line of Ike Boruchow with Wells Fargo. Please go ahead.

Speaker 6

Hey, this is Robert on for Ike. I just want to clarify. It sounds like you guys are maintaining the investment into demand creation. As we look towards the back half of the year, should it be more average order value being impacted from promotions and while orders or active buyers continue to maintain the same level? Is that how we should be thinking about it?

James Reinhart

Yeah, Robert, that's right. You should see average order values come down a little bit. You should see orders continue to be strong, buyers continue to be strong. Again, we're working every day to sort of refine that and improve that. I think to the extent that the environment gets a little bit better, some of the seasonal acceleration takes place. I think we're going to have room to take those average order values up, but I think that's probably the right way to model it right now.

Speaker 6

Got you. Just as a follow-up. Usually you pull back in marketing in Q4. Is that going to be the case here, or are you going to ramp up through the back half?

James Reinhart

I think right now we're not planning to do anything different than we did last year on the marketing side. I would not characterize it as a ramp-up or a big ramp-down. I think Q4 last year was stronger than our expectations, we feel like we're well-positioned for Q4 in the guide that we provided.

Speaker 6

Gotcha. Thank you.

Operator

Our next question will come from the line of Matt Koranda with ROTH Capital. Please go ahead.

Matt Koranda

Hey, guys. Can you just clarify, I guess, how much of the guidance cut is attributed? It sounds like mostly you're attributing it to weakness with your lower-end customer. It also sounds like there's a bit of an assortment reset going on, where you're trying to get rid of some older inventory and maybe reprioritize some new elements in the assortment that may be higher AOV over time to cater to a higher-end customer.

James Reinhart

Yeah.

Matt Koranda

Maybe just, can you parse that out for us? I just want to make sure I understand what's going on there.

James Reinhart

Yeah, Matt, I would say both things are true. The weakness that we're seeing is by and large from this segment of buyers making under $60,000 a year. We can see it so clearly in the data, which is why it's actually very easy for us to tell you what we think the quantum of the miss is, because you can just see it in their purchasing behavior and frequency and what they're buying, and what types of promotions and credits are required to get them to move. It's actually quite easy. We were testing this all in June, trying to understand the credit elasticity, the discount elasticity to drive purchases of that lower income cohort, and that's how we were able to really see what we think will happen in the back half of the year.

James Reinhart

At the same time, we are definitely shifting the mix and improving kind of the fresh products that are coming online, and as that mix becomes a larger part of what we do in the back half of the year, I think there is potentially some upside there. At the same time, we know we need to move some of that older stuff, and we can do it effectively with this more budget shopper. Again, we're really making the decision to not discount our best stuff, Matt. It would be easy to start to say, "Hey, let's discount the brand-new products that are coming online. They're very attractive to customers.

James Reinhart

We can drive incrementality. I think that's a very slippery slope when you're building a brand and you're building credibility, and I don't want to do that, because I think it ultimately degrades brand equity and willingness to pay over time. We're going to maintain standards and expectations there for new product coming online and really push on the older stuff.

Sean Sobers

Matt, to add to that.

Matt Koranda

Okay

Sean Sobers

the weakness in the customer and the mix shift that we're doing, again, are both back to driving forces of the macroeconomic environment, right?

James Reinhart

Yeah.

Matt Koranda

Yeah. Okay, fair enough. Just maybe, how long do you think the assortment reset takes? Can it be completed by the third quarter so that theoretically you could see growth in AOVs and even maybe better top-line growth by the fourth quarter if you've embedded enough conservatism here, or how should we think about, I guess, the timing of the reset of the assortment and how long that takes?

James Reinhart

I think the assortment, I wouldn't characterize it as a reset of the assortment. We're continuing to put more product online than ever. The ops engine and processing is very strong. I would say that the challenge that we saw as June concluded and into July, is that you just need to be more promotional on some of this older stuff to move customers off the couch to purchase. The environment just being incrementally weaker, I think is what we're trying to do, versus trying to discount your freshest product, which we think doesn't make sense. We're trying to weaponize older inventory to drive engagement and conversion of that more budget consumer.

Matt Koranda

Okay. I'll leave it there, guys. Thank you.

Operator

Our next question will come from the line of Bobby Brooks with Northland Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

Bobby Brooks

Hey, good afternoon, team. Thank you for taking my questions. I thought it was really interesting to hear the average listing price coming through the peer-to-peer model was $60 or $80, I think you said. Is it fair to think that this supply funnel is skewing more to the more premium than what is coming through the clean-out bags? I just wanted to hear your thoughts there.

James Reinhart

Yeah, Bobby. Yes. The stuff coming through direct listings is definitely more premium. We're still making a lot of progress on premium core marketplace bags. As I noted, premium items is up 32% year-over-year. We're making a lot of progress in premium kind of across the spectrum. Yes, direct listings items are certainly higher priced. That's by design from an average listing price, because we don't accept certain low-quality brands. We don't allow you to price items below $20. We've put some guardrails in there, Bobby, again, to create conditions for an improving assortment as we continue to grow that part of the business.

Bobby Brooks

Awesome. Just curious to hear on the peer-to-peer piece, have you seen the sell-through rates? Is it comparable to what the managed marketplace is seeing? Just any differences there? I would think that maybe the peer-to-peer, they're going to be asking for higher-

James Reinhart

Yeah

Bobby Brooks

kind of maybe asking for more than what it's worth, and so it's slowing. Do you hear more there?

James Reinhart

Yeah. Sell-through is definitely slower in direct listings, but it's sort of consistent across, I think, other peer-to-peer Sites. Yes, sellers tend to overprice items relative to what the market clearing price data should be. Yes, the sell-through is slower, but I think we're-

Bobby Brooks

Got it

James Reinhart

continuing to educate sellers. Yeah.

Bobby Brooks

Got it. Maybe just wanted to hear, obviously, definitely a dichotomy between kind of the more stressed consumers versus the more affluent consumers that have kind of been gravitating to the site more recently. Just maybe wanted to hear, is there a different, and obviously you made the point of that older inventory, discounting that to engage those more stressed consumers, but just on the broader marketing plan, are there any other key distinctions between how you're targeting those two groups? Or is it kind of the same strategy throughout both?

James Reinhart

Yeah. The shift that's been consistent, I think, all year, has been away from the Google PMax customer who tends to have a lower acquisition cost, but definitely a lower LTV. I think the shift has been moving to more Meta, more Pinterest, and what's really working there is that those customers have significantly higher LTVs, but we're almost driving the CAC much lower than we would've thought six months ago. So the paybacks are strong in those channels. Customer acquisition continues to be robust. So that's part of what makes us feel really good about this shift to this more premium customer. Again, we need more premium supply to sort of feed that engine. Again, that more premium customer is growing at a much faster rate than our budget shoppers.

James Reinhart

What we're really seeing in June and through this portion of a weaker environment is really just this budget shopper. We just have to sort of navigate and transition through that.

Bobby Brooks

Thank you.

Operator

Our next question comes from the line of Dana Telsey with Telsey Advisory Group. Please go ahead.

Dana Telsey

Hi. Good afternoon, everyone. In this environment where it seems like the focus is more on a wardrobe update than core replenishment with the products that you're talking, and obviously that lower income consumer, is there a difference between what you're seeing the lower income consumer spend on and category-wise versus what you're seeing your $100,000+ income spend on? What does this mean for the RaaS business, getting Steve Madden, Dolce Vita? Those are all-

James Reinhart

Yeah

Dana Telsey

very frothy brands. Is there more there? Anything you're seeing by category. Thank you.

James Reinhart

Yeah. Dana, I don't have specific nuanced category data, but I think your instincts are right. It's definitely the customer who's doing better, in this K-shaped economy, is definitely buying for fun and delight and travel. We've seen a lot of that over the summer for holiday vacations and things like that. Whereas your budget shopper, and again, I think part of the discounting approach is to move some of the staples and sort of basics to that budget shopper, but you have to do that at a lower price than you did 12 months ago. It's very clear in the data, Dana, around the behaviors of the group that's doing well and the group that's not. I think we just need to keep inching the assortment and inching the buyer base up.

James Reinhart

We've been doing that over the last couple of years, but it's not all the way there.

Dana Telsey

Got it. On the RaaS part, are there other new brands that are coming in?

James Reinhart

Sorry, yeah.

Dana Telsey

Yeah.

James Reinhart

Yeah. On the RaaS side, sorry. Yes. We're definitely focused on more elevated brands. We did something in the spring, a big push with Reformation. We're planning to do this with a number of brands in the fall. Yes, our RaaS strategy is really focused on those brands that serve the customer who is doing well, and I think we're definitely having some success there. We're going to keep doing more of that. RaaS is in a nice rhythm now of adding clients to the roster and getting those clients to be active. I'm feeling quite good about that momentum.

Dana Telsey

Thank you.

Operator

This concludes the question and answer session. I'll hand the call back over to James Reinhart for any closing comments.

James Reinhart

Well, thank you all for joining us today. Thank you especially to the ThredUp team for your continued hard work in this operating environment. Look forward to seeing you all on our next call. Thank you.

That will conclude today's call. Thank you all for joining. You may now disconnect.

ThredUp (TDUP): Buy, Sell, or Hold Post Q1 Earnings?

StockStory
ThredUp’s 19.2% return over the past six months has outpaced the S&P 500 by 10.5%, and its stock price has climbed to $6.65 per share. This was partly thanks to its solid quarterly results, and the performance may have investors wondering how to approach the situation. Is there a buying opportunity in ThredUp, or does it present a risk to your portfolio? Get the full breakdown from our expert analysts, it’s free. Despite the momentum, we don’t have much confidence in ThredUp. Here are three reasons why there are better opportunities than TDUP, plus one stock we’d rather own. Revenue growth can be broken down into changes in price and volume (for companies like ThredUp, our preferred volume metric is orders). While both are important, the latter is the most critical to analyze because prices have a ceiling. ThredUp’s orders came in at 1.71 million in the latest quarter, and over the last two years, averaged 3% year-on-year declines. This performance was underwhelming and implies there may be increasing competition or market saturation. It also suggests ThredUp might have to lower prices or invest in product improvements to grow, factors that can hinder near-term profitability. Operating margin is a key measure of profitability. Think of it as net income - the bottom line - excluding the impact of taxes and interest on debt, which are less connected to business fundamentals. ThredUp’s operating margin has risen over the last 12 months, but it still averaged negative 9.6% over the last two years. This is due to its large expense base and inefficient cost structure. If you’ve followed StockStory for a while, you know we emphasize free cash flow. Why, you ask? We believe that in the end, cash is king, and you can’t use accounting profits to pay the bills. ThredUp broke even from a free cash flow perspective over the last two years, giving the company limited opportunities to return capital to shareholders. We cheer for all companies serving everyday consumers, but in the case of ThredUp, we’ll be cheering from the sidelines. With its shares outperforming the market lately, the stock trades at 35.9× forward EV-to-EBITDA (or $6.65 per share). This multiple tells us a lot of good news is priced in - we think there are better opportunities elsewhere. We’d recommend looking at a safe-and-steady industrials business benefiting from an upgrade cycle. ONE MORE THING: Top…Read full document

A Look Back at Consumer Discretionary - Apparel and Accessories Stocks’ Q1 Earnings: ThredUp (NASDAQ:TDUP) Vs The Rest Of The Pack

StockStory
Wrapping up Q1 earnings, we look at the numbers and key takeaways for the consumer discretionary - apparel and accessories stocks, including ThredUp (NASDAQ:TDUP) and its peers. The Consumer Discretionary sector, by definition, is made up of companies selling non-essential goods and services. When economic conditions deteriorate or tastes shift, consumers can easily cut back or eliminate these purchases. For long-term investors with five-year holding periods, this creates a structural challenge: the sector is inherently hit-driven, with low switching costs and fickle customers. As a result, only a handful of companies can reliably grow demand and compound earnings over long periods, which is why our bar is high and High Quality ratings are rare. Apparel and accessories companies design, brand, and distribute clothing, handbags, jewelry, and related lifestyle products, often spanning multiple price tiers. Tailwinds include premiumization trends (consumers trading up for perceived quality), international expansion into emerging markets, and growing digital commerce penetration. However, these businesses face headwinds from highly cyclical demand, intense promotional environments, and counterfeit competition undermining brand equity. Tariff volatility and sourcing concentration in a handful of countries add risk. Additionally, rapidly changing fashion cycles and the rise of ultra-fast-fashion digital competitors compress product life cycles and make demand forecasting exceptionally difficult. The 15 consumer discretionary - apparel and accessories stocks we track reported a strong Q1. As a group, revenues beat analysts’ consensus estimates by 1.6% while next quarter’s revenue guidance was in line. Thankfully, share prices of the companies have been resilient as they are up 7.7% on average since the latest earnings results. Founded to revolutionize thrifting, ThredUp (NASDAQ:TDUP) is a leading online fashion resale marketplace offering a wide selection of gently-used clothing and accessories. ThredUp reported revenues of $81.67 million, up 14.6% year on year. This print exceeded analysts’ expectations by 1.9%. Overall, it was a strong quarter for the company with a solid beat of analysts’ adjusted operating income estimates. “We are proud to deliver Q1 out-performance, including a record month for new buyer acquisition,” said ThredUp CEO and co-founder James Rei…Read full document

Founded as a small leather goods business, G-III (NASDAQ:GIII) is a fashion and apparel conglomerate with a diverse portfolio of brands. G-III reported revenues of $536 million, down 8.2% year on year. This print surpassed analysts’ expectations by 1.1%. It was a very strong quarter as it also put up a beat of analysts’ EPS estimates and a solid beat of analysts’ EBITDA estimates. G-III achieved the highest guidance raise but had the slowest revenue growth among its peers. The stock is up 5.2% since reporting and currently trades at $33.70. Read our full, actionable report on G-III here, it’s free. Late in 2025 into early 2026, there was hand-wringing around artificial intelligence. For software companies, the fear was that AI would erode pricing power and compress margins as new tools made it easier to replicate what once required expensive enterprise platforms. Crypto investors had their own version of the same anxiety: if AI agents could trade, allocate capital, and manage wallets autonomously, what exactly was the long-term value of today’s crypto infrastructure? These concerns triggered a noticeable rotation away from these sectors and into safer havens. But markets rarely dwell on one narrative for long. Spring 2026 came, and the focus shifted abruptly from technological disruption to geopolitical risk. The US’ conflict with Iran became the dominant driver of market psychology, and when geopolitics takes center stage, the script changes quickly. Investors stop debating growth rates and start worrying about oil supply, inflation, and global stability. Want to invest in winners with rock-solid fundamentals?

The 5 Most Interesting Analyst Questions From ThredUp’s Q1 Earnings Call

StockStory
ThredUp’s first quarter saw a positive market reaction, as the company delivered double-digit revenue growth while matching Wall Street’s profit expectations. Management attributed this performance to strong buyer acquisition and engagement, with March marking a historic high in new buyers. CEO James Reinhart noted that “active buyers on a trailing twelve-month basis grew 25% year over year,” and highlighted effective marketing channel shifts and supply initiatives as central to the quarter’s outperformance, even as consumer caution increased late in the period. Is now the time to buy TDUP? Find out in our full research report (it’s free). Revenue: $81.67 million vs analyst estimates of $80.18 million (14.6% year-on-year growth, 1.9% beat) Adjusted EPS: -$0.05 vs analyst estimates of -$0.06 (in line) Adjusted EBITDA: $2.75 million vs analyst estimates of $2.51 million (3.4% margin, relatively in line) The company slightly lifted its revenue guidance for the full year to $353.7 million at the midpoint from $352 million Operating Margin: -8.1%, in line with the same quarter last year Orders: up 340,000 year on year Market Capitalization: $622 million While we enjoy listening to the management's commentary, our favorite part of earnings calls are the analyst questions. Those are unscripted and can often highlight topics that management teams would rather avoid or topics where the answer is complicated. Here is what has caught our attention. Irwin Bernard Boruchow (Wells Fargo) asked how management balances resilient demand with a more selective consumer environment. CEO James Reinhart explained that lower average selling prices and conversion rates started in March, driven by inflation and high gas prices, and these dynamics are reflected in the full-year outlook. Matt Koranda (ROTH Capital) questioned how Q2 guidance reconciles ASP and conversion pressure with projected sales acceleration. Reinhart stated that stronger execution and marketplace resilience offset the headwinds, but guidance remains cautious to account for uncertainty. Dylan Douglas Carden (William Blair) asked if this was the first time ThredUp invested in seller acquisition. Reinhart confirmed a new, methodical approach, including paid campaigns and influencer partnerships, and emphasized that acquired sellers often become buyers, accelerating the marketplace flywheel.

Reinhart pointed to March as the inflection point, with ongoing adjustments in marketing mix and curation to match evolving customer needs. Oliver Chen (TD Cowen) asked about order frequency and the impact of reinforcement learning. CFO Sean Sobers explained that order frequency per buyer is rising even as revenue per order dips, and that reinforcement learning is central to optimizing the customer journey and boosting conversion rates. In the quarters ahead, the StockStory team will track (1) the broader rollout and impact of ThredUp’s AI-driven personalization and agentic commerce features, (2) the ability to scale and integrate new seller channels, especially TikTok Shop, and (3) the company’s success in maintaining healthy supply-demand balance amid a more cautious consumer backdrop. Progress in seller onboarding and frequency initiatives will further signal execution strength. ThredUp currently trades at $4.75, up from $4.37 just before the earnings.

ThredUp (TDUP) Slides After Disappointing Quarterly Results Despite Strong Prior Run

Insider Monkey
Minot Light Capital Partners, an investment management company, released its “Capital Appreciation Fund" Q1 2026 Investor Letter. A copy of the letter can be downloaded here. The fund declined by 2.7% in the first quarter of 2026 due to a sharp macro-driven sector rotation following geopolitical tensions, which triggered inflation fears and rising interest rate expectations. This scenario led to a shift in investor focus toward sectors such as energy, defense, and AI-linked stocks, while the fund’s core exposure to healthcare, consumer, and idiosyncratic industrials lagged. Despite this setback, the firm maintains a constructive long-term outlook, suggesting that the current market volatility and consensus-driven market narratives are creating attractive opportunities in out-of-favor sectors where it continues to find compelling valuations and expects eventual mean reversion to drive future returns.  In addition, you can check the Fund’s top five holdings to determine its best picks for 2026. In its first-quarter 2026 investor letter, Minot Light Capital Appreciation Fund highlighted stocks like ThredUp Inc. (NASDAQ:TDUP). ThredUp Inc. (NASDAQ:TDUP) operates an online resale marketplace for secondhand apparel, footwear, and accessories. The one-month return of ThredUp Inc. (NASDAQ:TDUP) was 1.18% while its shares traded between $3.08 and $12.28 over the last 52 weeks. On May 12, 2026, ThredUp Inc. (NASDAQ:TDUP) stock closed at approximately $4.29 per share, with a market capitalization of about $553.58 million. Minot Light Capital Appreciation Fund stated the following regarding ThredUp Inc. (NASDAQ:TDUP) in its Q1 2026 investor letter: ThredUp Inc. (NASDAQ:TDUP) is not on our list of 40 Most Popular Stocks Among Hedge Funds Heading Into 2026. As per our database, 40 hedge fund portfolios held ThredUp Inc. (NASDAQ:TDUP) at the end of the fourth quarter, which was 31 in the previous quarter.

Sobers said the quarter’s performance was driven by “investments into new buyer acquisition, continued LTV to CAC efficiencies, and inbound processing that drove our marketplace flywheel.” Gross margin of 79.2% was up 10 basis points from the year-ago quarter, which Sobers attributed to higher average selling prices (ASPs) during the quarter.

The company invested $4.1 million in capital expenditures and generated $1.3 million in cash during Q1. While management highlighted demand resilience, both Reinhart and Sobers cautioned that consumer behavior has become more selective entering the second quarter. Reinhart said ThredUp has observed “average selling prices and conversion rates being slightly lower since early March,” with prices down roughly 3% and conversion rates for existing customers down about 5%. → 3 Emerging Markets ETFs to Maximize Exposure to High-Potential Countries During Q&A, Reinhart tied the shift in trends to macro developments, noting the pattern “does track” elevated oil and gas prices and referencing “the war in Iran,” while emphasizing that April performance had been “good” quarter-to-date. Sobers added that the company incorporated the observed ASP and conversion environment from late March through April into its guidance, and that assumptions do not include a recovery in those metrics. Analysts pressed management on how ThredUp posted a record month for buyer acquisition despite the headwinds. Reinhart said both dynamics could be true, pointing to conversion improvements made over prior quarters and saying conversion remains “very strong” even after a pullback. He also said new buyers in Q1 rose in the mid-to-high 20% range year-over-year while customer acquisition costs (CACs) declined by a double-digit percentage. Reinhart outlined three 2026 priorities: growing and retaining high-value buyers, developing AI technology to improve discovery and shopping, and scaling high-quality supply. He said ThredUp has launched its “first agentic product experience” for a segment of customers, where an “agent or a team of agents” leverages event feeds across platforms and reinforcement learning to personalize browsing in real time. Reinhart also described an initiative to aggregate “exact match” items—starting with dresses—so customers can view the same item in different colors, sizes, or condition tiers without navigating to another page. He said ThredUp believes no scaled resale company has replicated that experience across “thousands of brands and category SKUs,” and that the change is particularly helpful for newer customers. On marketing, Reinhart said ThredUp increased spending on Meta by 100% year-over-year and on Pinterest by 94% in Q1, while reducing spend on Google. He said Meta and Pinterest cohorts have higher predicted lifetime values, even if CACs are “slightly elevated,” and the company believes the shift supports improved retention and higher LTV over time. Sobers also addressed buying behavior, saying the company is seeing incremental improvements in order frequency. He said revenue per order has been “slightly lower,” but “orders per buyer actually [are] going up,” and indicated the company expects that trend to continue through 2026. Reinhart said ThredUp’s seven-day sell-through rate—described as its best proxy for demand—rose more than 15% year-over-year, while listings increased 17% year-over-year in Q1. He said those metrics suggest the marketplace needs “more sellers and more supply” to meet buyer demand. In Q1, ThredUp made “a deliberate investment in new seller acquisition.” Reinhart said 48% of kit requests came from new sellers, and new seller kit requests rose 90% year-over-year. He attributed the surge to TikTok Shop activation, on-site promotion, and targeted seller campaigns. In response to questions about paid seller acquisition, Reinhart said the company is beginning a more “methodical approach,” including working with creators and influencers on an affiliate basis. He said acquiring sellers can also benefit the buyer side because acquired sellers can convert into buyers and higher-quality supply can improve buyer conversion and LTV. Regarding TikTok Shop supply, Reinhart said the quality of goods from new suppliers tends to be lower than existing suppliers due to a learning curve, but he characterized the channel as a “huge opportunity” and said ThredUp recently launched premium bags on TikTok. He also said the company is increasing inbound processing “faster than planned” to capitalize on the influx of sellers and what he described as “pent-up demand” from a growing buyer base. Reinhart said ThredUp tracks supply adequacy using “items per buyer” and an item quality metric he referred to as a “hanger score.” He said items per buyer “flipped” in Q1, signaling incremental buyer demand has outpaced supply availability, supporting the company’s decision to more aggressively ramp processing and supply acquisition. For the second quarter, Sobers guided revenue to $89 million to $91 million, gross margin of 78.5% to 79.5%, and adjusted EBITDA of approximately 5.2% of revenue. He also projected basic weighted average shares outstanding of about 130 million. For the full year 2026, Sobers guided revenue to $351.2 million to $356.2 million and raised gross margin expectations to 78.5% to 79.5%. The company expects adjusted EBITDA of approximately 6.1% of revenue, which Sobers said implies about 170 basis points of expansion versus last year. Basic weighted average shares outstanding is expected to be about 131 million. Sobers said ThredUp plans to reinvest incremental dollars above its guidance into “growth-driving opportunities in processing and marketing,” while Reinhart emphasized that the company is operating at a high level even as it navigates softer ASPs and conversion rates. ThredUp, Inc operates an online consignment and thrift platform that enables consumers to buy and sell secondhand clothing and accessories. Through its digital marketplace, the company offers curated selections of apparel for women and children, spanning a broad range of brands and styles. Sellers can order a “Clean Out Kit” to send in items they no longer wear, while buyers benefit from discounted prices and a simplified shopping experience powered by ThredUp's in-house authentication, quality control and logistics capabilities. In addition to its core consumer-to-consumer marketplace, ThredUp has expanded into business-to-business services with its Resale-as-a-Service (RaaS) offering.

ThredUp Inc. Q1 2026 Earnings Call Summary

Moby
Revenue growth of 14.6% was driven by record active buyer acquisition and improved marketing efficiency, with March marking the strongest month in company history. Management observed an 'incrementally discerning' consumer starting in March, characterized by a 3% decline in average selling prices (ASPs) and a 5% drop in existing customer conversion rates. The company is pivoting its acquisition strategy toward Meta and Pinterest, where spend increased approximately 100% and 94% respectively, yielding higher lifetime value (LTV) than traditional Google channels. Supply has been identified as the primary constraint for growth, prompting a 90% year-over-year surge in new seller kit requests through targeted TikTok Shop and influencer campaigns. The launch of 'agentic commerce' uses reinforcement learning to dynamically personalize the on-site shopping journey in real-time based on individual clickstream data. Operational focus has shifted toward 'lean-back selling' features, such as a one-click relisting tool for the 100 million items previously sold on the platform. Strategic investments in inbound processing are being accelerated to capitalize on high sell-through rates and satisfy pent-up demand from a growing buyer base. Full-year 2026 guidance assumes that the current 3% ASP headwind and lower conversion rates will persist without recovery for the remainder of the year. Management noted that the business leverages and expands margins over time, and the recent performance reflected approximately 170 basis points of expansion versus the prior year. The company intends to flow any incremental revenue outperformance back into growth-driving opportunities, specifically in marketing and supply processing. Strategic rollout of 'exact match' item aggregation will expand from the dresses category to other high-volume SKUs to improve conversion for new shoppers. Resale-as-a-Service (RAAS) is expected to scale through new apparel brand partnerships and the replication of viral in-store trade-in event playbooks. Macroeconomic factors, specifically high gas prices and sticky inflation, are cited as the primary drivers for recent volatility in consumer purchasing behavior. The influx of new sellers (48% of total kit requests) requires increased investment in seller education and onboarding to match the performance of established cohorts. Geopolitical events, specificall…Read full document

The influx of new sellers (48% of total kit requests) requires increased investment in seller education and onboarding to match the performance of established cohorts. Geopolitical events, specifically tensions in the Middle East, were noted as potentially correlating with the timing of softened consumer sentiment in March. A shift in the shipping threshold strategy is intentionally prioritizing order frequency over average order value to drive long-term platform stickiness.

Management noted that the dip in ASPs and conversion coincided with elevated oil prices and geopolitical instability in April. Despite these headwinds, the business remains resilient, and the full-year guide conservatively assumes no immediate recovery in these metrics. ThredUp is testing paid marketing for sellers for the first time, finding that acquired sellers often convert into high-value buyers. This 'flywheel' effect accelerates marketplace liquidity by improving the quality and volume of available goods, which in turn drives buyer LTV. The new AI engine predicts the path most likely to lead to conversion and modifies the site interface live for each user. This technology is specifically designed to handle the complexity of a secondhand catalog where hundreds of thousands of unique items are added weekly. Internal metrics indicated that buyer demand began to outpace available supply in Q1, triggering a 'warning light' to ramp up processing. The company is using its 'HangerScore' to identify gaps in high-quality, premium supply, leading to the launch of premium bag kits on TikTok. One stock.
