Rent the Runway, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2025 Results
Strongest Quarterly Customer Retention in Four Years
Return to Subscriber Growth with over 147,000 Active Subscribers, the Highest Quarter Ending Active Subscriber Count in Company History
New Inventory Strategy Drove Significant Improvements in Subscriber Count and Customer Retention
NEW YORK, June 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rent the Runway, Inc. (“Rent the Runway” or "RTR") (NASDAQ: RENT), the company transforming the way women get dressed by pioneering the world’s first Closet in the Cloud, today reported financial results for the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2025.
Rent the Runway is in the midst of a multi-year corporate strategy transformation, and we believe that the changes we've introduced in the first quarter of 2025 have started driving meaningful improvement. By implementing an aggressive inventory acquisition strategy, innovating to enhance the product experience, and restoring our relationship with our customers, we have seen a reignition of subscriber growth and the strongest quarterly customer retention in four years.
"I have conviction that this quarter’s results prove that our focus on transforming our inventory and getting back to our customer-obsessed roots is working,” said Jennifer Hyman, Co-Founder, CEO and Chair of Rent the Runway. “We made a big bet on new inventory and we’ve already seen higher customer engagement and retention. I believe that Rent the Runway’s momentum and customer loyalty is back."
Recent Business Highlights
- Began deploying our new inventory strategy on site: Our historic investment in inventory began reaching customers, with a 24% increase in new inventory receipts in Q1 2025 versus Q1 2024. In Q1, we launched 36 new brands and over 1,000 new styles. We expect that the remainder of the year will be even more impactful, with inventory receipts expected to increase +134% YoY. We also expect to launch over 40 new brands and post over 2,700 new styles.
- Expanded inventory from pillar brands: In Q1, we released four new collaborations with Sea NY, Plan C, Ganni and Simon Miller, and increased the number of styles from popular brands like Staud, Ulla Johnson, Veronica Beard, and Tanya Taylor. Pillar brands are leading the way in customer engagement, with more demand, love rate, and hearts per style.
- Continued to demonstrate that RTR is a valuable marketing channel for many brands, providing an effective way for them to reach new customers outside of traditional marketing channels.
- Improved the new member experience, providing white glove service to early term customers: In Q1, we launched styling support, a 60-day customer promise where customers can get new items sent to them at no cost if they're unsatisfied with any of the items in their order, and called 50% of new members to ensure they had a smooth introduction. By the end of Q2, we anticipate 100% of our early term customers will receive a call.
- Introduced highly requested product features, including back-in-stock notifications: Historically the most requested new feature, beginning in Q1, customers can request to be notified when an item is back in stock. As of June 1, 25% of all subscribers engaged with back in stock notifications and 48% of subscribers successfully added a back in stock item to their bag from a notification.
- Reconnected with our customers: Through authentic, transparent communications and branding and unique member experiences, we’ve shown our customers we heard them during Q1 and we've continued this campaign in Q2.
- Increased customer engagement: We’ve seen higher engagement with our Spring 2025 inventory, which has 23% higher share of views, 46% more hearts, and a 14% higher love rate than our Spring 2024 buy. Customers are also adding more items to their shipments, with April add-on gross bookings +11% versus the prior year.
- Launched a new organic media strategy: We engaged with our opinionated community members on Reddit and introduced new content series on social media, including new spokespeople and highlights of the Rent the Runway team. The engagement rate on our social channels is up 163% since we launched our new strategy in April and May as compared to the two months prior.
"We’re pleased to see customers responding enthusiastically to our significant investment in inventory this fiscal year,” said Sid Thacker, Chief Financial Officer of Rent the Runway. “The energy from both our customers and employees is palpable. We are happy with the sequential growth in ending active subscribers and continue to expect double digit growth in ending active subscribers for fiscal year 2025. We have more to do, but believe we are firmly on the right track."

Key Business and Financial Metrics
Active Subscribers is defined as the number of subscribers with an active membership as of the last day of any given period and excludes paused subscribers. Total Subscribers represents the number of subscribers with an active or paused membership as of the last day of the period and excludes subscribers who had an active or paused subscription during the period, but ended their subscription prior to the last day of the fiscal period.
Average Active Subscribers is defined as the mean of the beginning of quarter and end of quarter Active Subscribers for a quarterly period; and for other periods, represents the mean of the Average Active Subscribers of every quarter within that period.
Gross Profit is defined as total revenue less costs related to activities to fulfill customer orders and rental product acquisition costs, presented as fulfillment and rental product depreciation and revenue share, respectively, on the consolidated statement of operations. We depreciate owned apparel assets over three years and owned accessory assets over two years, net of 20% and 30% salvage values, respectively, and recognize the depreciation on a straight-line basis and remaining cost of items when sold or retired on our consolidated statement of operations. Rental product depreciation expense is time-based and reflects all rental product items we own. We use Gross Profit and Gross Profit as a percentage of revenue, or Gross Margin, to measure the continued efficiency of our business after the cost of our products and fulfillment costs are included.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and the accompanying tables contain the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, free cash flow, and free cash flow margin. In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are useful in evaluating our performance and free cash flow and free cash flow margin are useful in evaluating our performance and liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance measure used by management to assess our operating performance and the operating leverage of our business prior to capital expenditures. These non-GAAP financial metrics are not meant to be considered as indicators of our financial performance in isolation from or as a substitute for our financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP and should be read only in conjunction with financial information presented on a GAAP basis. There are limitations to the use of the non-GAAP financial metrics presented in this press release. For example, our non-GAAP financial metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial metrics differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss, adjusted to exclude interest expense, rental product depreciation, other depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation expense, write-off of liquidated assets, non-recurring adjustments, non-ordinary course legal fees, restructuring charges, income tax (benefit) expense, other income and expense, and other gains / losses. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA calculated as a percentage of total revenue, net for a period.
We define free cash flow as net cash used in operating activities and net cash used in investing activities on a combined basis. Free cash flow margin is defined as free cash flow as a percentage of revenue.
The reconciliation of presented non-GAAP financial metrics to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is presented below. We encourage reviewing the reconciliation in conjunction with the presentation of the non-GAAP financial metrics for each of the periods presented. In future periods, we may exclude similar items, may incur income and expenses similar to these excluded items, and may include other expenses, costs and non-recurring items. Reconciliations of free cash flow and Adjusted EBITDA margin expectations for fiscal year 2025 and Q2 2025, respectively, to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to the high variability, complexity, and low visibility with respect to the charges excluded from these non-GAAP measures, in particular, share-based compensation expense, and non-recurring expenses, which can have unpredictable fluctuations based on unforeseen activity that is out of our control and/or cannot reasonably be predicted.
