•Reduced the carbon footprint of top 10 products by 14% in 2021 compared to 2020.1
“We are pleased to report a strong finish to 2021, with Q4 representing our largest revenue quarter on record, headlining financial performance ahead of our guidance targets,” said Joey Zwillinger, Co-Founder and Co-CEO. “Our results reflect strong global demand for the Allbirds brand and best-in-class execution by our teams during a period of ongoing macro challenges. Fourth quarter revenue grew 23% year-over-year and 43% versus 2019, representing an acceleration of our two-year growth rate. In the quarter, we saw strength across retail and digital channels, as well as geographies. The quarter culminated with a remarkable holiday season, which included the two biggest sales days in company history, highlighting the power of our omni-channel model.”
“We are also proud to have made significant progress in 2021 under our Allbirds Flight Plan—our blueprint for reducing our already-low product emissions by 50% by the end of 2025 and 95% by 2030. For the year, we reduced our carbon footprint per unit by 14% compared to 2020. This is particularly gratifying as we continue to prioritize creating better products in a better way. We see our 2022 product roadmap as our strongest yet. Importantly, we believe that our innovation engine, continued retail store expansion, and increasing international presence will continue to drive an accelerating topline growth rate in 2022, helping us march down the path towards durable growth and our medium-term profitability targets, while furthering our goal of combating climate change.”
1 This reduction is calculated using internal estimates by weighting the carbon dioxide-equivalent emissions of the top 10 products by the annual unit sales expected at the beginning of 2021.
2021 Highlights
Strong Year-Over-Year Improvement
Fourth Quarter Operating Results
Net revenue in the fourth quarter of 2021 increased 23% to $97.2 million compared to $79.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, and increased 43% compared to the fourth quarter of 2019. The increase is primarily attributable to strong consumer demand during the holiday season in the United States, which we were able to take advantage of due to our omni-channel model, our strongest new product quarter of the year, and our inventory position entering the quarter. Net revenue in the United States increased 25% to $76.9 million and international net revenue increased 14% to $20.3 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2020.
Gross profit in the fourth quarter of 2021 totaled $48.8 million compared to $39.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, and gross margin expanded 45 basis points to 50.2% compared to 49.7% in the fourth quarter of 2020. The increase in gross margin primarily reflects favorable channel and geographic mix, sales of higher gross margin products, and cost savings, partially offset by higher distribution center and logistics costs.
Selling, general and administrative expense in the fourth quarter of 2021 was $36.7 million, or 37.7% of revenue, compared to $25.5 million, or 32.1% of revenue, in the fourth quarter of 2020. The year-over-year increase is primarily attributable to expenses for the opening of four new stores during the period and operational expenses for 13 additional stores opened since the fourth quarter of 2020, increased corporate headcount, and public company preparation and operating costs. Marketing expense in the fourth quarter of 2021 totaled $18.5 million compared to $23.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 and improved as a percentage of revenue to 19.1% from 29.8% a year ago. The decrease in marketing expense as a percentage of revenue is primarily due to increased marketing efficiency in our digital channels and greater mix of physical retail.
GAAP net loss in the fourth quarter of 2021 was $10.4 million compared to net loss of $9.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, and net loss margin was (10.7)% compared to (11.8)% in the fourth quarter of 2020.
Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2021 was $0.4 million compared to a loss of $5.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, and adjusted EBITDA margin increased by 710 basis points to 0.4% versus (6.7)% a year ago.
Full Year Operating Results
Net revenue for the full year 2021 increased 27% to $277.5 million compared to $219.3 million for the full year 2020, and increased 43% compared to the full year 2019. Net revenue in the United States for the full year 2021 increased 26% to $209.8 million and international net revenue increased 29% to $67.7 million compared to the full year 2020. The increases are primarily attributable to strong consumer demand across geographies and channels, as well as new products.
Our net revenue increase was driven by growth in our digital and retail channels. We achieved net revenue growth of 16% in our digital channel and 112% in our retail channel. We also opened 13 new stores during the period, ending the year with 35 locations.
Gross profit for the full year 2021 totaled $146.7 million compared to $112.7 million for the full year 2020, while gross margin expanded 145 basis points to 52.9% compared to 51.4% in full year 2020. The increase in gross margin primarily reflects favorable channel and geography mix, sales of higher gross margin products, and cost savings, partially offset by higher distribution center and logistics costs.
Selling, general and administrative expense for the full year 2021 was $122.2 million, or 44.0% of revenue, compared to $86.7 million, or 39.5% of revenue, for the full year 2020. The year-over-year increase is primarily attributable to expenses for the opening of 13 new stores during the period and continued operational expenses for stores opened during 2020, increased corporate headcount, and public company preparation and operating costs. Marketing expenses for the full year 2021 totaled $57.3 million compared to $55.3 million for the full year 2020, and improved as a percentage of revenue to 20.7% from 25.2% a year ago.
GAAP net loss for the full year 2021 was $45.4 million compared to net loss of $25.9 million for the full year 2020, and net loss margin was (16.4)% compared to (11.8)% for the full year 2020.
Full year 2021 Adjusted EBITDA loss improved 24% to $11.7 million compared to $15.4 million for the full year 2020. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded 280 basis points to (4.2)% compared to (7.0)% a year ago.
2021 Operating Highlights
Record-Breaking Fourth Quarter Net Revenue
Balance Sheet Highlights
Allbirds ended the year with $289 million of cash and cash equivalents, which includes net offering proceeds from our IPO of $231.6 million, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions, and offering costs. Allbirds also ended the year with $40 million available under our revolving credit agreement. Inventories totaled $107 million, an increase of 80%, compared to $59 million at the end of 2020. The increase was attributable to a combination of higher in-transit inventory, given extended lead times from ongoing supply chain disruptions, as well as the impact of higher inbound freight costs.
2022 Financial & Carbon Footprint Reduction Guidance Targets
Allbirds provided the following guidance targets for full year 2022:
•Net revenue of $355 million to $365 million, representing growth in the range of 28% to 32% versus fiscal 2021 and 62% to 66% versus fiscal 2020.
•Gross profit of $187.5 million to $195 million, which at the midpoint of our net revenue and gross profit targets represents a gross margin percent of 53.1%, a 27 bps increase versus fiscal 2021.
•Adjusted EBITDA2 of negative $13 million to negative $9 million, including an estimated $8 million of public company costs.
•Carbon footprint reduction target of 6% for our top 10 products, aligned with our Allbirds Flight Plan to reduce by 25% by the end of 2025 and 95% by 2030.
Allbirds provided the following financial guidance targets for the first quarter of 2022:
•Net revenue of $60 million to $62 million, representing growth in the range of 21% to 25% versus the first quarter of fiscal 2021 and 42% to 47% versus the first quarter of fiscal 2020.
•Adjusted EBITDA2 of negative $13 million to negative $11 million, including an estimated $2 million of public company costs.
2022 Guidance
Raises Net Revenue Guidance Target
2 A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, to a corresponding GAAP measure is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts as we are currently unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty certain expense items that are excluded in calculating adjusted EBITDA. We have provided a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the financial statement tables for our fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2021 results included in this press release.
“Our strong product pipeline, authentic purpose-led brand, deep connection with our customers, and omni-channel distribution model all came together to deliver fourth quarter net revenue, gross profit, and adjusted EBITDA performance above our guidance targets,” said Mike Bufano, Chief Financial Officer. “Looking at full year 2021 as a whole, we are pleased that we grew net revenue by 27%, while continuing to improve our profitability, as evidenced by a 30% year-over-year improvement in gross profit, a 145 bps improvement in gross margin, and a 24% year-over-year improvement in adjusted EBITDA. The strength of our fourth quarter and full year results provides us with continued confidence in our medium-term financial targets of 20-30% net revenue growth, 60%+ gross margin, and mid- to high-teens adjusted EBITDA margin.”

All statements other than statements of historical facts, including statements regarding our financial outlook and guidance targets, medium-term financial targets, market position, future results of operations, financial condition, business strategy and plans, reducing the carbon footprint of our products, and objectives of management for future operations are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will,” or “would” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions. These risks include (1) the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; (2) economic uncertainty in our key markets; (3) the strength of our brand; (4) our net losses since inception; (5) the competitive marketplace; (6) our reliance on technical and materials innovation; (7) our use of sustainable materials and environmentally friendly manufacturing processes and supply chain practices; (8) our ability to attract new customers and increase sales to existing customers; (9) the impact of climate change and government and investor focus on sustainability issues; (10) our ability to anticipate product trends and consumer preferences; and (11) our ability to forecast consumer demand.

Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and the accompanying financial tables include references to adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP financial measures. We define adjusted EBITDA as net loss before stock-based compensation expense, including common stock warrant expense, depreciation and amortization, other expense, interest expense, and income tax provision (benefit). We define adjusted EBITDA margin as adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue.
Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin facilitate internal comparisons of our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis, and we also use them for our business planning purposes. In addition, we believe adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors, securities analysts, ratings agencies, and other parties in evaluating companies in our industry as a measure of operational performance.
We believe that non-GAAP measures, when reviewed in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, and not in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results of operations under GAAP, are useful to investors as they are widely used measures of performance, and the adjustments we make to these non-GAAP measures provide investors further insight into our profitability and additional perspectives in comparing our performance to other companies and in comparing our performance over time on a consistent basis. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as a profitability measure in that it does not include stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, other expense (income) (consisting of changes in fair value of our preferred stock warrant liability and gains or losses on foreign currency), interest expense, and provision for income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin should not be considered as an alternative to net loss and net loss margin or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Further, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these limitations, we consider, and investors should consider, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin together with other operating and financial performance measures presented in accordance with GAAP.
In the future, we may incur expenses similar to those for which adjustments are made in calculating adjusted EBITDA. Our presentation of these non-GAAP measures should not be construed as a basis to infer that our future results will be unaffected by extraordinary, unusual, or non-recurring items.
Product Carbon Footprint Methodology
This press release includes statements about our product carbon footprint. To calculate product carbon footprints, we use a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology to measure the carbon dioxide-equivalent emissions created across the lifetime of our products, including raw materials production, manufacturing, transportation, product use, and end of life. Our LCA methodology has been built in partnership with external experts, and has been third-party verified to meet ISO 14067 standards, the international standard for quantifying, monitoring, reporting, and validating greenhouse gas emissions. When comparing our products to a “standard sneaker,” it is important to ensure consistent methodology and assumptions, so we developed a set of assumptions for a “standard sneaker” based on a third-party academic LCA of a running shoe.
