SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The Company has prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FIGS, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiary, FIGS Canada, Inc. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented. Significant estimates include, but are not limited to, the valuation of the net realizable value of inventory, reserves for sales returns, stock-based compensation, contingent sales tax liability, the useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets, and the fair value of investments in equity securities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Loss Contingencies The Company may be involved in legal proceedings, claims and regulatory, tax or government inquiries and investigations that arise in the ordinary course of business resulting in loss contingencies. Loss contingencies are accrued for when losses become probable and are reasonably estimable. If the reasonable estimate of the loss is a range and no amount within the range is a better estimate, the minimum amount of the range is recorded as a liability. The Company does not accrue for contingent losses that, in its judgment, are considered to be reasonably possible, but not probable; however, the range of such reasonably possible losses would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed. Investment in Equity Securities The Company holds an investment in equity securities in a privately held company, consisting of equity securities without readily determinable fair values. The carrying value of this investment is adjusted to fair value upon observable orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer or upon impairment. The investment is reviewed periodically for impairment. Any adjustment to the carrying value of this investment is recorded in other income, net in our consolidated statements of operations. Variable Interest Entities The Company determines at the inception of each arrangement whether an entity in which it has made an investment in, or which it has other variable interests in, is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The Company will consolidate VIEs when it determines that it is the primary beneficiary. A primary beneficiary of a VIE has the power to direct activities that most significantly affect the economic performance of the VIE, and has the obligation to absorb the majority of their losses or benefits. If the Company is not the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Company accounts for the investment or other variable interests in a VIE in accordance with other applicable GAAP. Periodically, the Company assesses whether any changes in interest or relationship with a VIE affects the determination of whether the entity is a VIE and, if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company has no investments or other variable interests for which it is the primary beneficiary. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company uses valuation techniques that are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are developed using market data such as publicly available information and reflect the assumptions market participants would use, while unobservable inputs are developed using the best information available about the assumptions market participants would use. Assets and liabilities are classified in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement: Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs. To the extent that the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Short-term Investments The Company holds short-term investments in U.S. government debt securities and corporate debt securities. The Company’s short-term investments mature within 12-months or less and are classified as current assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and have been classified and accounted for as available-for-sale securities. The Company determines the appropriate classification of its investments at the time of purchase and reevaluates their classification at each balance sheet date. The Company’s available-for-sale investments in debt securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, reported within accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity. Available-for-sale debt securities with an amortized cost basis in excess of estimated fair value are assessed to determine what amount of that difference, if any, is caused by expected credit losses, with any allowance for credit losses recognized as a charge in other expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company did not record any credit losses on its available-for-sale debt securities in any of the periods presented. The Company determines gains or losses on the sale or maturities of short-term investments using the specific identification method and gains or losses are recorded in other (income) expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Concentrations of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are held with creditworthy financial institutions. Although the Company’s deposits held with banks may exceed the amount of federal insurance provided on such deposits, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of a default by the financial institutions holding its cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments for the amounts reflected on the consolidated balance sheets. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable consists of trade accounts receivables relating primarily to the credit card receivables arising from the sale of products to customers through the Company’s digital platforms. Trade accounts receivable is reported net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, which was zero as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. Other receivables generally relate to amounts due to the Company that result from activities that are not related to the direct sale of the Company’s products. Inventory, Net Inventory consists of finished goods and is accounted for using an average cost method. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company records a provision for excess and obsolete inventory to adjust the carrying value of inventory based on assumptions regarding future demand for the Company’s products. Lower of cost or net realizable value is evaluated by considering obsolescence, excessive levels of inventory, deterioration, and other factors. Adjustments to reduce the cost of inventory to its net realizable value, if required, are made for estimated excess, obsolescence, or impaired inventory. Excess and obsolete inventory is charged to cost of goods sold. The Company’s allowance to write down inventory to the lower of cost or net realizable value was not material as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. Property and Equipment, Net Property and equipment are recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. The Company depreciates property and equipment using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three years to ten years. Estimated useful life (years) Furniture and fixtures 7 Office equipment 5 Machinery and equipment 10 Computer equipment 3 Software and website development 5 Leasehold improvements Shorter of the lease term or the estimated life of the asset Upon the sale or disposal of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the consolidated balance sheets, and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Maintenance and repairs are charged to the general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income as incurred, while expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful life of an asset or provide additional utility are capitalized. The Company has incurred costs related to the development of the Company’s websites. The Company capitalizes these website development costs, as applicable, in accordance with ASC Subtopic 350-50, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Website Development Costs (“ASC 350-50”). ASC 350-50 requires that costs incurred during the website development stage be capitalized. Capitalized website costs include salary and benefit costs for Company employees and contractors that develop the website. When the development phase is substantially complete and the website is ready for its intended purpose, capitalized costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the five-year useful life. Cloud Computing Costs The Company also capitalizes software license fees and implementation costs associated with cloud hosting arrangements that are service contracts. These amounts are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Amortization of the software license fees is calculated using the straight-line method over the term of the service contract. Amortization of the implementation costs is calculated using the straight-line method based on the term of the service contract or based on the expected utilization of the asset and commences once the module or component is ready for its intended use. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company tests its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset or group of assets to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. If the evaluation of the forecasted cash flows indicates that the carrying value of the assets is not recoverable, the assets are written down to their fair value. No such impairments were recognized for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022. Leases The Company determines whether an arrangement is a lease at inception of the agreement and reassesses that conclusion if the agreement is modified. At lease commencement, which is generally when the Company takes possession of the asset, the Company records a lease liability and corresponding right-of-use asset. Lease liabilities represent the present value of minimum lease payments over the expected lease term, which includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain those options will be exercised. The present value of the lease liability is determined using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are established on the consolidated balance sheets for leases with an expected term greater than one year. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company does not allocate consideration between lease and non-lease components. Right-of-use assets represent the right to control the use of the leased asset during the lease and are initially recognized in an amount equal to the lease liability. Beginning on the lease commencement date, expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term. Right-of-use assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. Sales Tax Based on the 2018 Supreme Court decision in South Dakota v. Wayfair Inc. , an increasing number of states have considered or adopted laws or administrative practices, with or without notice, that impose new taxes on remote sellers to collect transaction taxes such as sales, consumption, or similar taxes. The Company follows the guidelines of ASC 450, Contingencies, and its consolidated financial statements reflect the current impact of such legislation. Share Repurchases Shares repurchased pursuant to the Company’s share repurchase program are retired and reflected as a reduction of the par value of Class A common stock within stockholders’ equity on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Direct costs incurred on share repurchases are recorded as part of the cost basis of each repurchase. The excess of cost basis over the par value of shares repurchased is recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASC 606”). Revenue is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for products. To determine revenue recognition for contracts with customers within the scope of ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from the commercial sales of products and contracts by applying the following five steps (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations of the contract(s); (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract(s); and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligations. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the good or services it transfers to the customer. The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when it satisfies a performance obligation and transfers control of the products to the respective customers, which occurs when the goods are transferred to a common carrier. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight incurred to transfer a product to a customer are treated as a fulfillment activity, and as a result, any fees received from customers are included in the transaction price for the performance obligation of providing goods to the customer. The Company generally provides refunds for goods returned within 30 days from the original purchase date. A returns reserve is recorded by the Company based on the historical refund pattern. The returns reserve in the consolidated balance sheets was $3.9 million and $3.0 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a customer, are excluded from revenue. The Company records deferred revenue when it receives payments in advance of the transfer of the goods to a common carrier. The amounts recorded are expected to be recognized as revenue within the 12 months following the balance sheet date and, therefore, are classified as current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company does not have significant contract balances other than deferred revenue, the allowance for sales returns and liabilities related to its gift cards. The Company recognized revenues of $2.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2024 related to the deferred revenue balance that existed at December 31, 2023. The Company recognized revenues of $3.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2024 related to redemptions from the gift card liability balance that existed at December 31, 2023. The Company recognizes estimated gift card breakage revenues under the redemption recognition method in proportion to actual gift card redemptions, over the period that remaining gift card values are redeemed. The Company does not have significant contract acquisition costs. The following table presents the disaggregation of the Company’s net revenues for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 (in thousands): Year ended 2024 2023 2022 By geography: United States $ 474,305 $ 483,454 $ 462,126 Rest of the world 81,253 62,192 43,709 $ 555,558 $ 545,646 $ 505,835 By product: Scrubwear $ 445,112 $ 439,987 $ 415,937 Non-Scrubwear 110,446 105,659 89,898 $ 555,558 $ 545,646 $ 505,835 Cost of Goods Sold Cost of goods sold consists primarily of the cost of purchased merchandise and includes import duties and other taxes, freight-in, defective merchandise returned by customers, inventory write-downs and other miscellaneous shrinkage as well as compensation and benefits related to embroidery personnel. Selling Expenses Selling expenses primarily include the cost of shipping and handling, fulfillment and credit card sales processing. Shipping and handling costs are associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer and, as such, are included in selling expenses. Marketing Expenses Marketing expenses primarily consist of digital and brand advertising. The Company’s marketing costs are primarily comprised of digital advertising through search engines and social media and are expensed as incurred. General and Administrative Expenses General and administrative expenses consist primarily of employee-related costs, including salaries, bonuses, benefits and stock-based compensation, charitable contributions, including the cost of product donations, other related costs, including certain third-party consulting and contractor expenses, certain facilities costs, software expenses, legal expenses and recruiting fees, and overhead. Stock-Based Compensation The Company measures and recognizes stock-based compensation expense for all stock option awards granted to employees and non-employees based on their estimated fair values as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company’s use of the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock options granted requires the input of various assumptions which are as follows: Risk-free interest rate—determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the award for time periods approximately equal to the expected term of the award. Expected volatility— the Company derives its volatility from the average historical stock volatilities of several peer public companies over a period equivalent to the expected term of the awards. The Company expects to continue to do so until such time as it has adequate historical data regarding the volatility of its own traded stock price. Expected dividend yield—the Company has not paid, and does not currently anticipate paying, cash dividends on its common stock; therefore, the expected dividend yield is assumed to be zero. Expected term—the expected term of the Company’s stock options granted to employees has been determined utilizing the “simplified” method for awards that qualify as “plain-vanilla” options, which calculates the expected term as the average of the time-to-vesting and the contractual life of options, as the Company does not have enough historical data to estimate the expected term. Fair value of common stock—the fair value of the Company’s common stock is the closing stock price of the Company’s Class A common stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange. The Company measures the fair value of RSUs granted to employees and non-employees based on the fair value of its Class A common stock on the grant date. The Company’s RSU grants vest upon the satisfaction of either a service condition or both a service condition and a performance condition. The service condition is generally satisfied ratably over four years. The performance condition related to the Company’s outstanding performance-based awards was satisfied in connection with the Company's initial public offering (“IPO”). For employee and non-employee awards that vest upon the satisfaction of a service condition, the Company recognizes compensation expense based on the grant date fair value of the award over the requisite service period on a straight-line basis, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award based on the grant date fair value of the award. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur. The Company classifies stock-based compensation expense in its consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income in the same manner in which the award recipient’s cash compensation costs are classified. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $42.7 million, $45.8 million, and $37.5 million, respectively, which are all recorded in general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. This approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences attributed to temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the respective tax basis of these assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in the tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded for carryforwards and other deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Based on its facts, the Company considered all available evidence, both positive and negative, including historical levels of taxable income, expectations, and risks associated with estimates of future taxable income, and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for a valuation allowance. The Company uses a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals and litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the largest amount of tax benefit as the largest amount that is more likely than not to be realized upon settlement. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. Comprehensive Income Comprehensive income includes net income, other changes in stockholders’ equity that result from transactions and economic events other than those with stockholders, unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, related to the Company's available-for-sale investments in debt securities, as well as foreign currency translation adjustments. Earnings per Share The Company computes earnings per share using the two-class method required for multiple classes of common stock and participating securities. Basic earnings per share (“Basic EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share (“Diluted EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the year. Common equivalent shares are calculated using the treasury stock method and are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share in periods for which they have an anti-dilutive effect.
