ITEM 2.02 | RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION |
On April 13, 2020, Purple Innovation, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, sales in our direct to consumer channel increased in excess of 35% over the same period in the prior year and substantially offset declines in our wholesale channel. In addition, at March 31, 2020, the Company’s cash balance was more than $26 million. A copy of the Company's press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and incorporated by reference.
The information furnished pursuant to this Item 2.02 and the exhibit hereto shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

The press release announced the Company’s continuing efforts to maintain liquidity during the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic, and described the increase in demand it has experienced in its direct to consumer channel and for its pillows, sheets and seat cushions, which have partially offset the decline in the Company’s wholesale channel.
The information in this Item 7.01 and Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto are furnished to, but not “filed” with, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any of the Company’s filings with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
