Organizational restructuring and cost-optimization improved efficiency, reduced costs, and enhanced collaboration.
Leadership changes, including a new CIO, support technology modernization and AI initiatives.
Pop-up store pilots were discontinued due to low returns; focus shifts to permanent retail concepts.
Financial highlights
Gross margin declined 120 basis points to 42.1% due to lower sales and higher costs.
Adjusted EBITDA was $98.1 million, down from $116.3 million year-over-year.
Free cash flow for the six months was $156.6 million, up from $128.3 million in the prior year.
Operating expenses decreased by $23.4 million to $221.1 million, mainly from reduced marketing and labor costs.

Ongoing cost optimization and organizational streamlining are expected to offset top-line pressure.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
