Exhibit 99.1

Lulus Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results

CHICO, Calif., August 13, 2025 -- Lulu’s Fashion Lounge Holdings, Inc. (“Lulus” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: LVLU) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 29, 2025 and updated its Adjusted EBITDA financial outlook for the third quarter ending September 28, 2025 and its capital expenditure outlook for the year ending December 28, 2025.

Crystal Landsem, CEO and Interim CFO of Lulus, said:

“In the second quarter, we saw meaningful sequential improvement in our quarterly year-over-year net revenue comparison, and we continued to see positive sales momentum in occasion dresses, led by our bridesmaid category. This performance was offset by continued softness in casual wear and footwear, which we are actively repositioning to better align with our strengths in event attire. We remain encouraged by the progress we are making against our strategic initiatives to drive cost efficiency and more effectively expand our reach to a broader customer base.

Importantly, during the quarter, we achieved our expectations with respect to generating positive Adjusted EBITDA and continuing to reduce our total debt. We believe the condition of our balance sheet, along with a leaner cost structure, position us well for the remainder of the year as we continue to invest in our brand, expand on our strategic wholesale partnerships and optimize our product margin. As a result, we expect positive Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter 2025, along with continued strengthening of our liquidity position reinforced by the active negotiation of a new asset-based revolving credit facility in the third quarter 2025. We will continue to closely manage our business and take the necessary steps to successfully navigate this dynamic environment.”

Second Quarter 2025 Highlights:

Net revenue of $81.5 million, an 11% decrease compared to the same period last year, driven by a 16% decrease in Total Orders Placed partly offset by a 1% increase in Average Order Value (“AOV”) from $143 to $145 and the favorable impact of lower return rates, compared to the same period last year.
Active Customers of 2.5 million, an 8% decrease compared to 2.7 million in the same period last year.
Gross profit decreased 12% to $36.9 million and Gross Margin decreased 20 basis points to 45.3%, in each case compared to the same period last year.
Net loss of $3.0 million, compared to net loss of $10.8 million in the same period last year.
Adjusted EBITDA* of $0.5 million, compared to ($0.2) million in the same period last year.
Net cash used in operating activities of $1.4 million, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $3.7 million in the same period last year.
Free Cash Flow* of ($1.9) million, compared to $3.0 million in the same period last year.
Total debt decreased by $4.3 million to $5.8 million and Net Debt* increased by $2.7 million to $4.2 million, during the thirteen weeks ended June 29, 2025.

Note: “*” represents a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Operating Metrics” section below for definitions of these metrics.

Amendment to Forbearance Agreement and Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement:

On August 11, 2025, the Company entered into an Amendment to the Forbearance Agreement and Fifth Amendment to the credit agreement with Bank of America for the Company’s current revolving facility (the “Credit Agreement”) (collectively, the “Forbearance Amendment”). Pursuant to the terms of the Forbearance Amendment, the parties agreed to amend the definition of “Forbearance Termination Event” set forth in the Forbearance Agreement to replace “August 15, 2025” with “August 22, 2025”. The Forbearance Amendment also amended the definition of “Maturity Date” set forth in the Credit Agreement, as amended, to replace “August 15, 2025” with “August 22, 2025”. The Company is actively negotiating a new asset-based revolving credit facility.

Updated Financial Outlook:

We expect positive Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter 2025.
We expect our full year 2025 capital expenditures to be approximately $2.5 million, which represents the low end of our previously estimated range of between $2.5 million and $3.0 million.

Forecasting future results or trends is inherently difficult for any business, and actual results or trends may differ materially from those forecasted. Lulus’ outlook is based on current indications for its business. Lulus’ outlook factors in our current best estimates for anticipated headwinds, including those related to the level of tariffs, consumer demand, spending and returns by our customers, macroeconomic uncertainties, inflation, supply chain pressures, shipping costs, and the intended impact of cost-reduction measures. Given the volatile nature of current consumer demand and potential for further impacts to consumer behavior due to macroeconomic factors, including continued inflation, higher interest rates, student loan repayment resumption, global political changes, including as a result of the change in the U.S. presidential administration, tariffs or bans, existing and future laws, regulations, and directives (including executive orders), as well as other world events, wars, and domestic and international conflicts that affect overall consumer confidence and the predictability of consumer purchasing behavior, Lulus’ financial outlook is subject to change.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical or current fact included in this press release are forward-looking statements, including but not limited to statements regarding our opportunities for growth, the long-term growth trajectory of our business, the negotiation of a new asset-based revolving credit facility, the intended impact of cost-reduction measures and our financial outlook for the third fiscal quarter ending September 28, 2025 and fiscal year ending December 28, 2025. These statements are neither promises nor guarantees, but involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause Lulus’ actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in Lulus’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2024, Part II, Item IA, “Risk Factors” in Lulus’ Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 30, 2025 and June 29, 2025, and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission which could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this press release. Any such forward-looking statements represent management’s estimates as of the date of this press release. While Lulus may elect to update such forward-looking statements at some point in the future, it disclaims any obligation to do so, except as required by law, even if subsequent events cause its views to change.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Operating Metrics

To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), we reference in this press release and the accompanying tables the following non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Net Debt and Free Cash Flow. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, and our non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. We use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital. Our management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of our ongoing core operating performance. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when analyzing historical performance and liquidity and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures, please see the tables captioned “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included at the end of this release. Definitions of our non-GAAP financial measures and other operating metrics are presented below. We also use certain key operating metrics, including Gross Margin, Active Customers, Average Order Value, and Total Orders Placed.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that we calculate as net loss before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude the effects of equity-based compensation expense and other non-routine expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by management to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital. In particular, the exclusion of certain

5


expenses in calculating Adjusted EBITDA facilitates operating performance comparisons on a period-to-period basis and, in the case of exclusion of the impact of equity-based compensation, excludes items that we do not consider to be indicative of our core operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin

Adjusted EBITDA Margin is a non-GAAP financial measure that we calculate as Adjusted EBITDA (as defined above) as a percentage of our net revenue.

Active Customers

We define Active Customers as the number of customers who have made at least one purchase across our platform in the prior 12-month period. Active Customer count is measured as of the last day of the relevant period. We consider the number of Active Customers to be a key performance metric on the basis that it is directly related to consumer awareness of our brand, our ability to attract visitors to our digital platform, and our ability to convert visitors to paying customers. Active Customer counts are based on deduplication logic using customer account and guest checkout name, address, and email information.

Average Order Value

We define AOV as the sum of the total gross sales before returns across our platform in a given period, plus shipping revenue, less discounts and markdowns, divided by the Total Orders Placed (as defined below) in that period. AOV reflects the average basket size of our customers. AOV may fluctuate as we continue investing in the development and introduction of new Lulus merchandise and as a result of our promotional discount activity.

Free Cash Flow

Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that we calculate as net cash (used in) provided by operating activities less cash used for capitalized software development costs and purchases of property and equipment. We view Free Cash Flow as an important indicator of our liquidity because it measures the amount of cash we generate.  

Gross Margin

We define Gross Margin as gross profit as a percentage of our net revenue. Gross profit is equal to our net revenue less cost of revenue. Certain of our competitors and other retailers report cost of revenue differently than we do. As a result, the reporting of our gross profit and Gross Margin may not be comparable to other companies.

Net Debt

Net Debt is a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as total debt, which currently consists of the revolving line of credit, less cash and cash equivalents. We consider Net Debt to be an important supplemental measure of our financial position, which allows us to analyze our leverage

Total Orders Placed

We define Total Orders Placed as the number of customer orders placed across our platform during a particular period. An order is counted on the day the customer places the order. We do not adjust the number of Total Orders Placed for any cancellation or return that may have occurred subsequent to a customer placing an order. We consider Total Orders Placed as a key performance metric on the basis that it is directly related to our ability to attract and retain customers as well as drive purchase frequency. Total Orders Placed, together with AOV, is an indicator of the net revenue we expect to generate in a particular period.
