NEW YORK, November 5, 2026. Warby Parker Inc. (NYSE: WRBY) (“Warby Parker” or the “Company”), a direct-to-consumer lifestyle brand focused on vision for all, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.
Highlights
- Delivered revenue of $244.7 million, up 10.4% year over year.
- Drove Active Customer growth of 3.0% to 2.74 million on a trailing 12-month basis, and Average Revenue per Customer of $342, up 6.7% year over year.
- Achieved gross margin of 54.4%, up from 54.1% in the prior year.
- Generated net income of $5.6 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $28.6 million.
- Opened 12 net new stores during the quarter, ending Q3 with 364 stores.
“One week from today, on November 12, we'll begin accepting pre-orders for our first Intelligent Eyewear collection and look forward to delivering customer orders during the holiday season,” said Dave Gilboa, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Warby Parker. “We can't wait for customers to experience these remarkable products firsthand.”
“There's a tremendous amount happening across Warby Parker, from rolling out Warby Parker Care to expanding our retail footprint to launching our first Intelligent Eyewear collection,” said Neil Blumenthal, Co-Founder and Co-CEO. “We're continuing to expand our products and services, build on the investments we've made over many years, like exams and insurance, and find new ways to serve our customers. In an uneven optical environment, we're staying focused on what we can control, while pursuing opportunities we believe can drive meaningful growth for years to come.”
Third Quarter 2026 Year-Over-Year Financial Results
- Net revenue increased $23.1 million, or 10.4%, to $244.7 million.
- Active Customers increased 3.0% to 2.74 million on a trailing 12-month basis, and Average Revenue per Customer increased 6.7% to $342.
- Gross profit was $133.2 million, or 54.4% of revenue, compared to $119.9 million, or 54.1% of revenue, in the prior year. The increase in gross margin was primarily related to leverage in glasses, driven by reduced tariffs, customer shipping savings, optical lab efficiencies, and increased penetration of progressives and other lens treatments. These benefits were partially offset by deleverage from growth in eye care and in fixed expenses related to occupancy costs as we opened 12 net new stores. Adjusted Gross Profit was $133.6 million, or 54.6% of revenue, compared to $120.2 million, or 54.2% of revenue, in the prior year.
- Selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) were $129.6 million, up $13.2 million from the prior year. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A increased by 50 basis points, primarily driven by retail compensation and corporate expenses, including higher technology costs. The increase was partially offset by lower marketing spend as a percentage of revenue. Adjusted SG&A was $120.8 million,
or 49.4% of revenue, compared to $108.0 million, or 48.7% of revenue, in the prior year.
- Net income decreased $0.3 million to $5.6 million.
- Adjusted EBITDA increased $2.8 million to $28.6 million and Adjusted EBITDA Margin increased 10 basis points to 11.7%.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights
- Ended the third quarter of 2026 with $287.9 million in cash and cash equivalents.
- Third quarter operating cash flow of $24.7 million and Free Cash Flow of $(2.0) million, reflecting investments related to launching Intelligent Eyewear.
2026 Outlook
For the full year 2026, Warby Parker is narrowing its revenue guidance and reaffirming its Adjusted EBITDA guidance as follows:
- Net revenue of $966 to $976 million, representing approximately 11% to 12% growth versus full year 2025.
- Adjusted EBITDA of $117 to $119 million, which equates to an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 12.2% and 130 basis points of year-over-year expansion at the midpoint of the range.
- Guidance now includes a modest contribution from Intelligent Eyewear, along with the related launch and operating expenses.
- 50 new store openings.
“We delivered double-digit revenue growth in Q3, with Adjusted EBITDA exceeding our guidance,” said Adrian Mitchell, Chief Financial Officer. “Our profitability reflects disciplined execution across the business, and we're maintaining that focus through the remainder of the year as we enter 2027 with significant financial flexibility.”

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