1. Organization
Purple Innovation, Inc.’s
mission is to help people feel and live better through innovative comfort solutions.
Purple Innovation, Inc. collectively
with its subsidiary (the “Company” or “Purple Inc.”) is an omni-channel Company that began as a digitally-native
vertical brand founded on comfort product innovation with premium offerings. The Company designs and manufactures a variety of innovative,
branded and premium comfort products, including mattresses, pillows, cushions, bases, sheets, and other products. The Company markets
and sells its products through its e-commerce online channels, retail brick-and-mortar wholesale partners, Purple showrooms, and third-party
online retailers.
The Company was incorporated
in Delaware on May 19, 2015 as a special purpose acquisition company under the name of Global Partnership Acquisition Corp (“GPAC”).
On February 2, 2018, the Company consummated a transaction structured similar to a reverse recapitalization (the “Business Combination”)
pursuant to which the Company acquired a portion of the equity of Purple Innovation, LLC (“Purple LLC”). At the closing of
the Business Combination (the “Closing”), the Company became the sole managing member of Purple LLC, and GPAC was renamed
Purple Innovation, Inc.
As the sole managing member
of Purple LLC, Purple Inc. through its officers and directors is responsible for all operational and administrative decision making and
control of the day-to-day business affairs of Purple LLC without the approval of any other member.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
and Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of Purple Inc., its controlled subsidiary Purple LLC, and Purple LLC’s wholly owned subsidiary
Advanced Comfort Technologies, Inc., dba Intellibed (“Intellibed”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation. As of June 30, 2024, Purple Inc. held 99.8 % of the common units of Purple LLC and Purple LLC Class B Unit
holders held 0.2 % of the common units in Purple LLC.
The accompanying unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United
States (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding
interim financial reporting and reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company. Certain information
and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant
to such rules and regulations. As such, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared on the same basis as the
audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (all of which were considered of
normal recurring nature) considered necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial results. The results of the three and six
months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024
or for any other interim period or other future year.
Variable Interest
Entities
Purple LLC is a variable interest
entity. The Company determined that it is the primary beneficiary of Purple LLC as it is the sole managing member and has the power to
direct the activities most significant to Purple LLC’s economic performance as well as the obligation to absorb losses and receive
benefits that are potentially significant. At June 30, 2024, Purple Inc. had a 99.8 % economic interest in Purple LLC and consolidated
100 % of Purple LLC’s assets, liabilities and results of operations in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements contained herein. The holders of Class B Units of Purple LLC (“Class B Units”) held 0.2 % of the economic interest
in Purple LLC as of June 30, 2024. For further discussion see Note 15 — Stockholders’ Equity.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to establish accounting policies and to make
estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclose contingent assets and liabilities as of
the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be reasonable, the results
of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. The Company regularly makes estimates
and assumptions including, but not limited to, estimates that affect revenue recognition, accounts receivable and the allowance for credit
losses, valuation of inventories, sales returns, warranty returns, fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations,
impairment reviews of long-lived assets and definite-lived intangible assets, warrant liabilities, stock based compensation, the recognition
and measurement of loss contingencies, estimates of current and deferred income taxes, deferred income tax valuation allowances, and amounts
associated with the Company’s tax receivable agreement with InnoHold, LLC (“InnoHold”). Predicting future events is
inherently an imprecise activity and, as such, requires the use of judgment. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Reclassification
Certain amounts in the prior
year condensed consolidated balance sheet have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation with no effect
on previously reported net (loss) income, cash flows or stockholders’ equity. Accrued compensation, previously included in the
condensed consolidated balance sheet within other current liabilities, is now presented separately.
Recent Accounting
Pronouncements
Enhanced Segment Disclosures
In November 2023, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable
Segment Disclosures, which requires public entities, including those that have a single reportable segment, to provide enhanced disclosures
about significant expenses. This ASU requires disclosure to include significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief
operating decision maker (“CODM”), a description of other segment items by reportable segment, and any additional measures
of a segment’s profit or loss used by the CODM when deciding how to allocate resources. This ASU also requires all annual disclosures
currently required by Topic 280 to be included in interim periods. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted and requires retrospective
application to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently analyzing the impact this ASU will have
on its disclosures.
Improvements to Income
Tax Disclosures
In December 2023, the FASB
issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU amends existing income tax
disclosure guidance, primarily requiring more detailed disclosures for income taxes paid and the effective tax rate reconciliation. This
ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, may be applied prospectively or retrospectively, and allows for
early adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this update will have on its income tax disclosures in the consolidated
financial statements.
3. Acquisition
The Company acquired Intellibed,
a premium sleep and health wellness company, in August 2022. The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred for Intellibed
was $ 28.2 million. Included in this amount was $ 1.5 million for the fair value of contingent consideration related to 1.5 million shares
of Class A common stock issuable to Intellibed security holders if the closing price of the Company’s stock did not equal or exceed
certain thresholds during the period beginning on the six-month anniversary of the closing date and ending on the 18-month anniversary
of the closing date. The contingent shares were valued using a Monte-Carlo simulation model. Because the contingent consideration was
payable with a fixed number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, it was classified as equity and did not require remeasurement
in subsequent periods. During March 2024, the Company issued 1.5 million shares of Class A common stock to Intellibed security holders
since the Company’s stock price did not meet any of the indicated thresholds during the contingency period.

4. Fair Value Measurements
The Company uses the fair
value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair value is 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,
essentially an exit price, based on the highest and best use of the asset or liability. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
Level 1—Quoted market prices
in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2—Significant other observable
inputs (i.e., quoted prices for similar items in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar items in markets that are not
active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, such as interest rate and yield curves, and market-corroborated inputs);
and
Level 3—Unobservable inputs in
which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting unit to develop its own assumptions.
The classification of fair
value measurements within the established three-level hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurements.
Financial instruments, although not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts
payable and the Company’s debt obligations. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and
accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these accounts. The estimated fair value of the Company’s
debt arrangement is based on Level 2 inputs, which include observable inputs approximated using discounted cash flows and market-based
expectations for interest rates, credit risk and the contractual terms of debt instruments. As of June 30, 2024, the estimated fair value
of the Company’s debt arrangement was $41.7 million.
The warrant liabilities (see
Note 11 — Warrant Liabilities for more information) are Level 3 instruments and use internal models to estimate fair value
using certain significant unobservable inputs which require determination of relevant inputs and assumptions. Accordingly, changes in
these unobservable inputs may have a significant impact on fair value. Such inputs include risk free interest rate, expected average
life, expected dividend yield, and expected volatility. These Level 3 liabilities generally decrease (increase) in value based upon
an increase (decrease) in risk free interest rate and expected dividend yield. Conversely, the fair value of these Level 3 liabilities
generally increase (decrease) in value if the expected average life or expected volatility were to increase (decrease).
The following table summarizes
the Company’s total Level 3 liability activity for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

5. Revenue from Contracts with Customers
The Company markets and sells
its products through e-commerce online channels, retail brick-and-mortar wholesale partners, Purple showrooms, and third-party online
retailers. Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies its performance obligations under the contract which involves transferring
the promised products to the customer, subject to shipping terms.
Disaggregated Revenue
The Company classifies revenue
into two sales categories: direct-to-consumer (“DTC”) and wholesale. The DTC category is comprised of the Company’s
e-commerce channel that sells directly to consumers who purchase online and through our contact center, and the Purple showrooms channel
that sells directly to consumers who purchase at a showroom location. The wholesale channel includes all product sales to our retail
brick and mortar wholesale partners where consumers make purchases at their retail locations or through their online channels. The Company
classifies products into two major types: sleep products and other. Sleep products include mattresses, platforms, adjustable bases, mattress
protectors, pillows and sheets. Other products include cushions and various other products.

2024 Credit Agreement
On January 23, 2024, Purple
LLC, Purple Inc. and Intellibed (collectively, the “Loan Parties”) entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the
“Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”), which amended and restated the then existing term loan agreement (“Term Loan
Agreement”), with Coliseum Capital Partners (“CCP”) and other lenders (collectively, the “Lenders”) and
Delaware Trust Company, as administrative agent. The Lenders agreed to assume the Loan Parties’ obligations under the Term Loan
Agreement and refinance their existing obligations. A term loan in the amount of $ 61.0 million (the “Related Party Loan”)
was funded by the Lenders that repaid in full the $ 25.0 million of term loans outstanding, repaid in full the $ 5.0 million of asset based
lending loans outstanding, paid fees, premiums and expenses incurred in connection with this transaction, and provided net proceeds to
the Company (after payments of outstanding debt, unpaid accrued interest and expenses) equal to approximately $ 27.0 million. Interest
on the Related Party Loan is payable each month and the principal outstanding matures and is due on December 31, 2026. The Company may
elect for interest to be capitalized and added to the principal amount. The Related Party Loan bears interest at a rate equal to (i) the
secured overnight financing rate as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York plus 0.10 %, with a floor of 3.5 % per annum, plus
(ii) 8.25 % per annum (or, if Purple LLC elects to pay interest in kind to reduce it cash obligations, 10.25 % per annum). Any prepayments
on or after August 7, 2024 but before August 7, 2025 are subject to a prepayment penalty of 1.25 %, and any prepayments on or after August
7, 2025 are subject to a prepayment penalty of 2.50 %. The Loan Parties may request an additional term loan from the Lenders in an aggregate
amount not to exceed $ 19.0 million on terms requested by them to the extent agreed to by the Lenders at their discretion. The Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement also removed restrictions and requirements typically associated with an asset-based loan.
In connection with the Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement, the Company issued 20.0 million warrants to the Lenders (see Note 11 – Warrant Liabilities )
and incurred fees and expenses of $ 3.5 million that were recorded as debt issuance costs in the first quarter of 2024. Interest expense
under the Related Party Loan was $ 4.3 million and $ 7.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively.
The Amended and Restated
Credit Agreement granted a security interest to the Lenders in substantially all of the assets (subject to certain limited exceptions)
of the Loan Parties to secure the Loan Parties’ loans and other obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, including
a security interest in the intellectual property owned by the Loan Parties.
The Loan Parties (other than
Purple LLC) provided an unconditional guaranty of the payment of all obligations and liabilities of Purple LLC under the Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement.
The Amended and Restated
Credit Agreement also provides for standard indemnification of the Lenders and contains representations, warranties and certain covenants
of the Loan Parties. While any amounts are outstanding under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the Loan Parties are subject
to a number of affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants regarding dispositions of property, investments, forming or acquiring
subsidiaries, business combinations or acquisitions, incurrence of additional indebtedness and transactions with affiliates, among other
customary covenants. The Loan Parties are also restricted from paying dividends or making other distributions or payments on their capital
stock, subject to limited exceptions. As of June 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Amended and Restated
Credit Agreement.

2023 Credit Agreements
On August 7, 2023, the Loan
Parties entered into the Term Loan Agreement. Also, on August 7, 2023, the Loan parties entered into a separate financing arrangement
with a group of financial institutions (collectively the “ABL Lenders”) that provided for a revolving asset-based credit facility
(the “ABL Agreement”). Pursuant to entering into these agreements (collectively, the “2023 Credit Agreements”),
the Company incurred fees and expenses of $ 3.1 million that were recorded as debt issuance costs in the third quarter of 2023.
The Term Loan Agreement provided
for up to $ 25.0 million of term loans, with up to $ 5.0 million of incremental term loans available, subject to certain conditions (collectively,
the “Term Loans”). Proceeds from the Term Loans were used for general corporate purposes. The borrowing rates under the Term
Loan Agreement were based on SOFR, plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.15 % per annum, plus 8.5 % per annum, with a SOFR floor of 2.0 %
per annum. The Term Loans were to be repaid at the earlier of (i) a three-year amortization schedule ending on August 7, 2026 or (ii)
the payment in full of the ABL Agreement. The Term Loans could be prepaid in whole or in part at any time, but subject to a prepayment
premium. There were also potential mandatory prepayment obligations based on certain asset dispositions, casualty events and extraordinary
receipts. Once repaid, no portion of the Term Loans could be reborrowed.
The ABL Agreement provided
for up to $ 50.0 million of revolving loans subject to a borrowing base calculation and minimum availability requirements (with sub-facilities
for swing line loans and the issuance of letters of credit), with incremental increases available up to $ 20.0 million (the “ABL
Loans”), subject to certain conditions, availability reserves, minimum availability requirements, borrowing base calculations,
and restrictive covenants. In October 2023, the ABL Lenders implemented an availability reserve of $ 5.0 million, which reduced the amount
available under the borrowing base. Outstanding principal and accrued interest on the ABL Loans were to be repaid on August 7, 2026.
Term loans totaling $ 25.0 million
were fully drawn at closing and, subsequent to the closing in August 2023, the Company executed $ 17.0 million in ABL loan draws and then
repaid $ 12.0 million of those borrowings prior to the end of 2023. The outstanding balance of ABL Loans totaled $ 5.0 million at December
31, 2023. In connection with the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, all obligations under the 2023 Credit Agreements were paid in
full and the agreements were terminated. The termination was accounted for as an extinguishment of debt and $ 3.4 million of unamortized
debt issuance costs related to the 2023 Credit Agreements were recorded as a loss on extinguishment of debt in the first quarter of 2024.
Interest expense under the 2023 Credit Agreements was $ 0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. For the three months ended
June 30, 2024, there was no interest expense associated with the 2023 Credit Agreements.
2020 Credit Agreement
On September 3, 2020, Purple
LLC entered into a financing arrangement with a group of financial institutions (the “2020 Credit Agreement”). The 2020 Credit
Agreement provided for a $ 45.0 million term loan and a $ 55.0 million revolving line of credit. The term loan was to be repaid in accordance
with a five-year amortization schedule or prepaid in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty, subject to reimbursement
of certain costs. The revolving credit facility had a term of five years and carried the same interest provisions as the term debt. A
commitment fee was due quarterly based on the applicable margin applied to the unused total revolving commitment. In connection with
the Company’s execution of the 2023 Credit Agreements, the Company terminated its 2020 Credit Agreement. The Company had no outstanding
borrowings under the 2020 Credit Agreement at the time of termination.
On February 17, 2023, the
Company entered into a fifth amendment to the 2020 Credit Agreement. The amendment, among other things, revised various covenants associated
with the 2020 Credit Agreement. As a condition of entering into the amendment, the Company repaid the $ 24.7 million outstanding balance
on the term loan plus accrued interest. Pursuant to this amendment, the Company incurred fees and expenses of $ 2.9 million that were
recorded as debt issuance costs in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The amendment was accounted for as an extinguishment of
debt and $ 1.2 million of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the term loan were recorded as loss on extinguishment of debt in
the first quarter of 2023.
Interest expense under the
2020 Credit Agreement totaled $ 0.5 million and $ 1.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

11. Warrant Liabilities
On January 23, 2024, in connection
with the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the Company issued 20.0 million warrants to the Lenders (the “Warrants”).
Each Warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of the Company’s Class A common stock at a price of $ 1.50 per
share, subject to adjustment. The Warrants will expire on the 10 -year anniversary of issuance, or earlier upon redemption. The holders
do not have the rights or privileges of holders of Class A common stock or any voting rights until they exercise their Warrants. After
the issuance of shares of Class A common stock upon exercise of the Warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share
of Class A common stock held on all matters to be voted on by stockholders generally. A holder of the Warrants will not have the right
to exercise its Warrants, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, the holder (together with its affiliates) would beneficially
own in excess of 49.9 % of the shares of Class A common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. The Warrants
contain a repurchase provision which, upon an occurrence of a fundamental transaction as defined in the warrant agreement, could give
rise to an obligation of the Company to pay cash to the warrant holders. In addition, other provisions may lead to a reduction in the
exercise price of the Warrants. The Company determined the fundamental transaction provisions require the Warrants to be accounted for
as a liability at fair value on the date of the transaction, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings in the period of change.
As a result, the liability for these Warrants was recorded at fair value on the date of issuance with the offset included in debt issuance
costs. This liability is subsequently re-measured to fair value at each reporting date or exercise date with changes in the fair value
included in earnings.
The Company used a the Monte
Carlo Simulation model to determine the fair value of the liability associated with the Warrants. The model uses key assumptions and inputs
such as exercise price, fair market value of common stock, risk free interest rate, warrant life, expected volatility and the probability
of a warrant re-price event. The following are the assumptions used in calculating fair value of the Warrants on the date of issuance:
Trading price of common stock on measurement date
$ 0.82
Exercise price
$ 1.50
Risk free interest rate
4.14 %

4.36 %
Warrant life in years

—

The Warrants had a fair value
of $ 24.5 million as of June 30, 2024. The Company recognized a gain of $ 18.7 million in its condensed consolidated statement of operations
for the three months ended June 30, 2024 related to a decrease in the fair value of the Warrants outstanding at the end of the period
compared to the fair value of the Warrants outstanding at the end of the first quarter of 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2024,
the Company recognized a loss of $ 4.9 million in its condensed consolidated statement of operations related to an increase in the fair
value of the Warrants outstanding at the end of the period compared to the fair value of the Warrants on the date of issuance.

Warranty Liabilities
The Company provides a limited
warranty on most of the products it sells. The estimated warranty costs associated with products sold through DTC channels are expensed
at the time of sale and included in cost of revenues. The estimated warranty return costs associated with products sold through the wholesale
channel are recorded at the time of sale and included as an offset to net revenues. Estimates for warranty costs are based on the results
of product testing, industry and historical trends and warranty claim rates incurred, and are adjusted for any current or expected trends
as appropriate. Actual warranty claim costs could differ from these estimates. The Company regularly assesses and adjusts the estimate
of accrued warranty claims by updating claims rates for actual trends and projected claim costs. The Company classifies estimated
warranty costs expected to be paid beyond a year as a long-term liability.
Chief Executive Officer
Cash Bonus Award
On January 26, 2024, the
Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) approved an amendment to the Chief Executive Officer’s employment
agreement. Under the amendment, the Company agreed that, among other things, the Chief Executive Officer will be eligible to earn a cash
payment of up to $ 5.0 million, less tax and other required withholdings, based on the volume weighted average price per share of the
Company’s Class A common stock on NASDAQ during the period from March 16, 2026 through June 30, 2026 subject to his continued employment
with the Company. The amount earned will be payable in quarterly installments commencing with the first payroll period following June
30, 2026. The Company determined the provisions surrounding the future bonus payment require it to be accounted for as a liability at
fair value on the date of the transaction, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings in the period of change. The Company recorded
compensation expense of $ 0.2 million in its condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024 related
to this future bonus payment. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized a compensation expense reduction of $ 0.2
million in its condensed consolidated statement of operations related to a decrease in the fair value of the future bonus payment.
Senior Leadership
Team Special Recognition Bonus
On
January 26, 2024, the Board unanimously approved a special recognition bonus payment to certain members of the Company’s senior
leadership team. Each participant is eligible to earn a special recognition bonus payment equal to 15 months of their regular salary.
The special recognition bonus payment is payable, subject to the employee’s continued employment with the Company, 10 % on August
1, 2024, 20 % on February 1, 2025, and 70 % on August 1, 2025. The Company recorded compensation expense of $ 1.5 million in its condensed
consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024 related to this future bonus payment.
Performance
Cash Long-Term Incentive Award
On
June 20, 2024, the Board unanimously approved a performance cash long-term incentive award to those employees eligible to participate
in the Company’s Long-Term Incentive Plan. The incentive award payment is based on a performance goal of the volume weighted average
price per share of the Company’s Class A common stock on NASDAQ on March 31, 2027. The Company determined the provisions surrounding
the performance cash long-term incentive award require it to be accounted for as a liability at fair value at each reporting period,
with changes in fair value recognized in earnings in the period of change. The Company recorded a de minimis compensation expense in
the consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024 related to this future award payment.
Settlement
of Insurance Claim
In January 2024, the Company received $ 4.3 million for partial settlement
of a previously filed business interruption claim. The Company recorded the cash upon receipt as other income, net in the condensed consolidated
statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The remaining settlement amount of $ 7.3 million was received subsequent

Rights of Securities
Holders
On January 23, 2024, in connection
with the issuance of the Warrants, the Company entered into an amended and restated registration rights agreement (the “Registration
Rights Agreement”) with holders of the Warrants (the “Holders”), providing for the registration under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended of the Warrants, the shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants and Class A common stock held by the Holders
as of such date (the “Registrable Securities”), subject to customary terms and conditions. The Registration Rights agreement
entitles the Holders to demand registration of the Registrable Securities and to piggyback on the registration of securities by the Company
and other Company securityholders. The Company will be responsible for the payment of the Holders’ expenses in connection with any
offering or sale of Registrable Securities by the Holders, including underwriting discounts or selling commissions, placement agent or
broker fees or similar discounts, commissions or fees relating to the sale of certain Registrable Securities. The Registration Rights
Agreement provided further that the Company was required to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement to register the resale
of the Registrable Securities. The registration statement filed by the Company on March 21, 2024 registering the Registrable Securities
became effective on June 4, 2024.
NOL Rights Plan
On June 27, 2024, the Board approved the adoption of a limited-duration
stockholder rights agreement (the “NOL Rights Plan”) with a stated expiration date of June 30, 2025. The Board approved the
NOL Rights Plan to protect stockholder value by attempting to safeguard the Company’s ability to use its estimated $ 238 million
of net operating losses (the “Current NOLs”) to reduce potential future federal income tax obligations from becoming substantially
limited by future ownership changes in the Company’s common stock under Code Section 382. See Note 15 – Stockholders’
Equity – NOL Rights Plan for further discussion of the NOL Rights Plan.
NOL Protective Charter Amendment
In connection with the NOL Rights Plan, the Board adopted, and recommended
that the Company’s stockholders approve, an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation (the “NOL Protective
Charter Amendment”) that adds an additional layer of protection of the Current NOLs until June 30, 2025 by voiding certain transfers
of common stock that could result in an ownership change under Code Section 382. The NOL Protective Charter Amendment is not yet effective
and will be submitted for stockholder approval at the Company’s special meeting of the stockholders (the “Special Meeting”).

Non-Income Related
Taxes
The U.S. Supreme Court ruling
in South Dakota v. Wayfair, Inc. , No.17-494, reversed a longstanding precedent that remote sellers are not required to collect
state and local sales taxes. The Company cannot predict the effect of these and other attempts to impose sales, income or other taxes
on e-commerce. The Company currently collects and reports on sales tax in all states in which it does business. However, the application
of existing, new or revised taxes on the Company’s business, in particular, sales taxes, value-added tax and similar taxes would
likely increase the cost of doing business online and decrease the attractiveness of selling products over the internet. The application
of these taxes on the Company’s business could also create significant increases in internal costs necessary to capture data and
collect and remit taxes. There have been, and will continue to be, substantial ongoing costs associated with complying with the various
indirect tax requirements in the numerous markets in which the Company conducts or will conduct business.
Legal Proceedings
On December 16, 2022, Purple’s
founders filed a complaint against Purple Inc. in the Fourth Judicial District Court in the State of Utah. In that suit, the plaintiffs
alleged that they each entered into employment agreements with Purple LLC in February 2018. The plaintiffs contended that certain corporate
transactions reduced their “ownership interest and voting power in Purple” and that, as a result, they should have continued
to be paid a salary when they retired from Purple LLC. The plaintiffs calculated that they were each owed “no less than $ 500,000 ”
in unpaid salary. In October 2023, the Court granted Purple Inc.’s motion and ordered that the claims brought by the plaintiffs
be dismissed in full, with prejudice. The Court entered a final judgment dismissing the case in January 2024. The plaintiffs have filed
an appeal to the Utah Court of Appeals. The Company maintains insurance to cover the costs of defending against claims of this nature
and intends to continue to vigorously defend against these claims in the course of the plaintiffs’ appeal.
On April 3, 2023, Purple’s
founders filed a complaint against Purple LLC in the Delaware Court of Chancery. The complaint alleges that Purple LLC breached the limited
liability company agreement of Purple LLC by failing to pay the full amount of tax distributions owed under the agreement. The plaintiffs
seek damages of approximately $ 3.0 million in allegedly unpaid tax distributions as well as legal fees and expenses incurred in connection
with the litigation. On June 13, 2023, Purple LLC filed an answer to the complaint denying the plaintiffs’ allegations, setting
forth its affirmative defenses, and requesting dismissal of all claims and entry of judgment in Purple LLC’s favor. The outcome
of the litigation cannot be predicted at this early stage in the proceedings. Purple LLC denies all allegations and intends to vigorously
defend against these claims.
On January 17, 2024, two customers
filed a punitive class action lawsuit (the “Class Action Lawsuit”) against Purple LLC in California Superior Court
in the County of San Francisco alleging unlawful marketing and pricing practices, fraud and unjust enrichment. The suit seeks damages
and other relief on behalf of all persons who purchased Purple LLC products during the applicable statutory periods in California. On
February 22, 2024, Purple LLC removed the case to the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. Purple
LLC denies all allegations and intends to vigorously defend against these claims.
On April 16, 2024, Purple’s
founders, in their capacity as a former landlord of Purple LLC, brought a lawsuit against Purple LLC, as lessee, for amounts allegedly
owed under a real estate lease which the parties terminated effective September 30, 2023. In the suit, the plaintiffs allege approximately
$ 2.5 million in damages, based primarily on a dispute regarding whether Purple LLC left the premises in the condition required by the
lease. The plaintiffs further claim approximately $ 0.8 million in holdover rent, as well as unspecified amounts in interest, late fees,
liquidated damages, attorney fees and costs. Purple LLC denies all allegations and intends to vigorously defend against these claims.
The Company is from time
to time involved in various other claims, legal proceedings and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company does
not believe that adverse decisions in any such pending or threatened proceedings, or any amount that the Company might be required to
pay by reason thereof, would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or future results of the Company.

Purple Founder Entities
Purple
LLC began leasing its Alpine facility from entities controlled by Purple’s founders in 2010. On September 3, 2021, in accordance
with the terms of that original lease, Purple LLC gave notice that it intended to exercise its right to an early termination of the lease
to occur on September 30, 2022. On July 20, 2022, the Company entered into an amendment to its Alpine facility lease agreement that rescinded
the Company’s previous notice of termination and extended the lease term to remain in effect until September 30, 2023. The Company
vacated the Alpine facility and returned the property back to its owner on September 30, 2023, in accordance with the terms of the lease
agreement and notice of termination. In conjunction with leasing the Alpine facility, Purple LLC incurred rent expense of $ 0.3 million
and $ 0.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively (see Note 13— Commitments and Contingencies—Legal
Proceedings for information regarding a complaint filed by Purple’s founders regarding this matter).
15. Stockholders’ Equity
Class A Common Stock
The Company has 210.0 million
shares of Class A common stock authorized. Holders of the Company’s Class A common stock are entitled to one vote for each share
held on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders. Holders of Class A common stock and holders of Class B common stock voting together
as a single class have the exclusive right to vote for the election of directors and on all other matters properly submitted to a vote
of the stockholders. At June 30, 2024, 107.5 million shares of Class A common stock were outstanding.
Class B Common Stock
The
Company has 90.0 million shares of Class B common stock authorized. Holders of the Company’s Class B common stock will vote together
as a single class with holders of the Company’s Class A common stock on all matters properly submitted to a vote of the stockholders.
Shares of Class B common stock may be issued only to InnoHold, their respective successors and assigns, as well as any permitted transferees
of InnoHold. A holder may transfer their shares of Class B common stock to any transferee (other than the Company) only if such holder
also simultaneously transfers an equal number of such holder’s Class B Units to such transferee. The Class B common stock is not
entitled to receive dividends, if declared by the Board, or to receive any portion of any such assets in respect of their shares upon
liquidation, dissolution, distribution of assets or winding-up of the Company in excess of the par value of such stock. At June 30, 2024,
0.2 million shares of Class B common stock were outstanding.

Preferred Stock
The Company has 5.0 million shares of preferred stock authorized. The
preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The Board is expressly authorized to provide for the issuance of
shares of the preferred stock in one or more series and to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such
series and to fix the voting rights, designations and other special rights or restrictions. At June 30, 2024, there were no shares of
preferred stock outstanding. On June 27, 2024, 0.3 million shares of the Company’s authorized shares of preferred stock were designated
as Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share (“Series C Preferred Shares”).
NOL Rights Plan
On June 27, 2024, the Board
adopted, and the Company entered into the NOL Rights Plan, which is designed to preserve approximately $ 238 million of the “Current
NOLs under Section 382 of the of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code Section 382”). The Company’s ability
to use the Current NOLs to offset future taxable income may be significantly limited if the Company experiences an “ownership change”
under Code Section 382, which occurs if one or more stockholders or groups of stockholders that is deemed to own at least 5% of the Company’s
common stock increases their aggregate ownership by more than 50 percentage points over its lowest ownership percentage within a rolling
three-year period. The NOL Rights Plan is intended to prevent an ownership change by acting as a deterrent to any Person (as such term
is defined in the NOL Rights Plan) acquiring 4.9% or more of the outstanding common stock of the Company (or, in the case of a Grandfathered
Person (as such term is defined in the NOL Rights Plan), an additional one-half of one percentage point of the outstanding common Stock
of the Company above their current ownership percentage). Any Person that acquires shares of the Company’s common Stock in violation
of the limitations of the NOL Rights Plan is known as an “Acquiring Person.” For purposes of the NOL Rights Plan, “common
stock” includes (i) the Class A common stock, (ii) the Class B common stock, and (iii) any interest that would be treated as “stock”
of the Company pursuant to Treasury Regulation § 1.382-2T(f)(18). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the NOL Rights Plan allows for the
exercise of currently outstanding conversion rights, exchange rights, warrants or options, or otherwise, without triggering the NOL Rights
Plan. See Note 11 – Warrant Liabilities for further discussion of the Company’s outstanding warrants.
The NOL Rights Plan provides
for a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (a “Right”) for each share of common stock outstanding on July 26, 2024.
Each Right entitles the holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of Series C Preferred Share for a purchase price
of $ 2.75 , subject to adjustment as provided in the NOL Rights Plan. Each Series C Preferred Share is designed to be the economic equivalent
of one share of common stock.
Unless the Board determines
to effect an exchange (as discussed below), each Right will become exercisable on the “Distribution Time”, which is the earlier
to occur of (i) the tenth day following a public announcement, or the public disclosure of facts indicating, that a Person has become
an Acquiring Person or (ii) the tenth business day (or such later date as may be determined by action of the Board prior to such time
as any Person becomes an Acquiring Person) following the commencement of a tender offer or exchange offer the consummation of which would
result in a Person becoming an Acquiring Person. After the Distribution Time, any Rights held by an Acquiring Person will be void and
will not be exercisable. As a result, any Acquiring Person will be subject to significant dilution upon the occurrence of the Distribution
Time. At any time after a Person becomes an Acquiring Person, but before such Acquiring Person holds more than 50% of the common stock,
the Board, in its sole discretion, may instead extinguish the Rights by exchanging one share of Class A common stock for each Right, other
than Rights held by the Acquiring Person.
The Rights will expire on
the earliest to occur of (i) the close of business on the date of the Special Meeting if a majority of the Company’s stockholders
voting do not ratify the NOL Rights Plan, (ii) the close of business on June 30, 2025; (iii) the time at which the Rights are redeemed
(as discussed below) or exchanged by the Company; (iv) the repeal of Code Section 382, if the Board determines that this Agreement is
no longer necessary for the preservation of the Current NOLs; or (v) the beginning of a taxable year of the Company to which the Board
determines that no Current NOLs may be carried forward. At any time prior to the expiration of the NOL Rights Plan, the Company may redeem
the Rights in whole, but not in part, at a price of $0.0001 per Right (subject to adjustment and payable in cash, Class A common stock
or other consideration deemed appropriate by the Board). Immediately upon the action of the Board authorizing any redemption or at a later
time as the Board may establish for the effectiveness of the redemption, the Rights will terminate and the only right of the holders of
Rights will be to receive the redemption price.
The initial issuance of the
Rights as a dividend will have no tax, financial accounting or reporting impact. The fair value of the Rights will be nominal since the
Rights are not exercisable when issued and no value is attributable to them. Additionally, the Rights do not meet the definition of a
liability under GAAP and will therefore not be accounted for as a long-term obligation. Accordingly, unless the Rights become exercisable
upon the occurred of the Distribution Time as discussed above, the NOL Rights Plan and the Rights issued thereunder have no impact on
the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The NOL Rights Plan is subject to stockholder ratification at the Special Meeting.
If the NOL Rights Plan is not ratified by the stockholders at the Special Meeting, the NOL Rights Plan will be terminated and the Rights
will expire.

NOL Protective Charter
Amendment
Concurrently with the adoption
of NOL Rights Plan, on June 27, 2024, the Board adopted, and recommended that the Company’s stockholders approve at the Special
Meeting, the NOL Protective Charter Amendment that adds an additional layer of protection of the Current NOLs until June 30, 2025 by voiding
any transfer of common stock that results in any Person holding 4.9% or more of the outstanding common stock of the Company (or, in the
case of a Person already holding more than 4.9% of the outstanding common stock of the Company as of the date of the NOL Protective Charter
Amendment, one-half of one percentage point of the outstanding common stock of the Company above their current ownership percentage).
Any acquisition of common
stock in violation of the NOL Protective Charter Amendment will be void as of the date it is attempted. Upon the Company’s written
demand, the purported acquiring stockholder must transfer the excess acquired common stock to the Company’s transfer agent (along
with any dividends or other distributions paid with respect to such excess acquired common stock). The Company’s transfer agent
is then required to sell such excess acquired common stock in an arm’s-length transaction (or series of transactions) that would
not constitute a violation under the NOL Protective Charter Amendment. The net proceeds of the sale together with any other distributions
with respect to such excess acquired common stock received by the Company’s transfer agent, after deduction of all costs incurred
by the transfer agent, will be transferred first to the purported transferee in an amount, if any, up to the cost (or in the case of gift,
inheritance or similar transfer, the fair market value of the excess securities on the date of the prohibited transfer) incurred by the
purported transferee to acquire such excess securities, and the balance of the proceeds, if any, will be transferred to a charitable beneficiary.
Further, the Company may hold any stockholder liable, to the fullest extent of the law, for any intentional violation of the NOL Protective
Charter Amendment.
The NOL Charter Amendment will be submitted for stockholder approval
at the Special Meeting. The NOL Protective Charter Amendment will not become effective unless and until it is approved by stockholders
at the Special Meeting.
Warrants
In connection with the Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement, the Company issued 20.0 million Warrants to the Lenders. Each Warrant entitles the registered holder to
purchase one share of the Company’s Class A common stock at a price of $ 1.50 per share, subject to adjustment. While the Warrants
are exercisable, the Company may call the Warrants for redemption in whole and not in part at any time at a price of $ 0.01 per share
of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants upon not less than 45 days’ prior written notice of redemption to
each holder, provided that this redemption right is only available if the reported last sale price of the Class A common stock equals
or exceeds $ 24.00 per share on each of 20 trading days within a 30 -trading day period ending three business days before the Company sends
the notice of redemption to the holders. A holder of the Warrants will not have the right to exercise its Warrants, to the extent that
after giving effect to such exercise, the holder (together with its affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 49.9 % of the shares
of Class A common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.
Sponsor Warrants
There
were 12.8 million sponsor warrants issued pursuant to a private placement simultaneously with the Company’s initial public offering.
Unexercised sponsor warrants totaling 1.9 million expired in February 2023 and were cancelled pursuant to the terms of the warrant agreement.
These sponsor warrants had no fair value on the date of expiration.
Noncontrolling Interest
Noncontrolling interest (“NCI”)
is the membership interest in Purple LLC held by holders other than the Company. At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the combined
NCI percentage in Purple LLC was 0.2 % and 0.2 %, respectively. The Company has consolidated the financial position and results of operations
of Purple LLC and reflected the proportionate interest held by all such Purple LLC Class B Unit holders as NCI.
16. Income Taxes
The Company’s sole
material asset is Purple LLC, which is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and for purposes of certain state
and local income taxes. Purple LLC’s net taxable income and any related tax credits are passed through to its members and are included
in the members’ tax returns, even though such net taxable income or tax credits may not have actually been distributed. While the
Company consolidates Purple LLC for financial reporting purposes, the Company will be taxed on its share of earnings of Purple LLC not
attributed to the noncontrolling interest holders, which will continue to bear their share of income tax on its allocable earnings of
Purple LLC. The income tax burden on the earnings taxed to the noncontrolling interest holders is not reported by the Company in its
consolidated financial statements under GAAP.

The
Company reported income tax expense related to various state taxes of $ 0.1 million on a pretax loss of $ 50.2 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2024 as compared to various state taxes of $ 0.1 million on a pretax loss of $ 66.6 million for the six months ended June
30, 2023. This resulted in an effective tax rate of ( 0.22 )% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to ( 0.22 )% for the six
months ended June 30, 2023. The Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 differs from the statutory
federal rate of 21 % primarily due to the impact of the full valuation allowance recorded against the Company’s deferred tax assets
at June 30, 2024.
In connection with the Business
Combination, the Company entered into a tax receivable agreement with InnoHold, which provides for the payment by the Company to InnoHold
of 80 % of the net cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax that the Company actually realizes (or is deemed
to realize in certain circumstances) in periods after the Closing as a result of (i) any tax basis increases in the assets of Purple
LLC resulting from the distribution to InnoHold of the cash consideration, (ii) the tax basis increases in the assets of Purple LLC resulting
from the redemption by Purple LLC or the exchange by the Company, as applicable, of Class B Paired Securities or cash, as applicable,
and (iii) imputed interest deemed to be paid by the Company as a result of, and additional tax basis arising from, payments it makes
under the agreement.
As noncontrolling interest
holders exercise their right to exchange or cause Purple LLC to redeem all or a portion of their Class B Units, a tax receivable agreement
liability may be recorded based on 80 % of the estimated future cash tax savings that the Company may realize as a result of increases
in the basis of the assets of Purple LLC attributed to the Company as a result of such exchange or redemption. The amount of the increase
in asset basis, the related estimated cash tax savings and the attendant liability to be recorded will depend on the price of the Company’s
Class A common stock at the time of the relevant redemption or exchange.
The effects of uncertain tax
positions are recognized in the consolidated financial statements if these positions meet a “more-likely-than-not” threshold.
For those uncertain tax positions that are recognized in the consolidated financial statements, liabilities are established to reflect
the portion of those positions it cannot conclude “more-likely-than-not” to be realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company’s
policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits on the income tax expense line in the accompanying
consolidated statement of operations. Accrued interest and penalties would be included on the related tax liability line in the consolidated
balance sheet. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $ 0.9 million.
17. Net Loss Per Common Share
Basic
net income (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average
number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted net income (loss) per share reflects the weighted-average
number of common shares outstanding during the period used in the basic net income (loss) computation plus the effect of common stock
equivalents that are dilutive.
The following table sets
forth the calculation of basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding and net loss per share for the periods presented (in thousands,
except per share amounts):

The Company excludes certain shares issuable from equity awards, warrants

price is greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock or they are otherwise anti-dilutive. For
the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company excluded 22.7 million shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of certain
warrants, stock options and restricted stock. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company excluded 25.0 million shares of Class
A common stock issuable upon conversion of certain warrants, stock options restricted stock and exchange of Class B common stock. For
the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company excluded 3.0 million and 3.4 million, respectively, of Class A common stock
issuable upon conversion of certain warrants, stock options restricted stock and exchange of Class B common stock.

Employee Restricted
Stock Units
During
the first six months of 2024, the Company granted 1.8 million restricted stock units under the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan to certain
members of the Company’s management team. Of the restricted stock units granted, 0.4 million included a market vesting condition.
The restricted stock awards that did not have a market vesting condition had a weighted average grant date fair value of $ 1.00 per share.
The estimated fair value of these awards is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. For those awards that include
a market vesting condition, the estimated fair value of the restricted stock was measured on the grant date and incorporated the probability
of vesting occurring. The estimated fair value is recognized over the derived service period (as determined by the valuation model),
with such recognition occurring regardless of whether the market condition is met. The Company determined the weighted average grant
date fair value of the awards with the market vesting condition to be $ 1.13 per share using a Monte Carlo Simulation model with the following
weighted average assumptions:
Trading price of common stock on measurement date $ 1.50
Risk free interest rate 4.46 %
Expected life in years 3.0
Expected volatility 97.1 %

Settlement of Insurance
Claim
In July 2024, pursuant to
a previously filed business interruption claim, the Company received the remaining settlement amount of $ 7.3 million. The Company recorded
the payment received as other income, net in the third quarter of 2024.
Class Action Lawsuits
On July 15, 2024, the Company
entered into a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with the plaintiffs in connection with the Class Action Lawsuit.
Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company will make a cash payment upon the receipt of an executed release of all claims by the
plaintiffs. The payment will have no material impact on results of operations, financial condition or cash flow of the Company. The Settlement
Agreement is subject to approval by the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. If the court does not grant
final approval of the Settlement Agreement, or the settlement does not otherwise become final or effective, proceedings in the Class Action
Lawsuit will continue. See Note 13 - Commitments and Contingencies - Legal Proceedings for further discussion of the Class Action
Lawsuit.
On July 24, 2024, a former part-time employee filed a class
action lawsuit against Purple LLC in California Superior Court in the County of Alameda alleging failure to pall all wages,
failure to pay overtime pay rate, failure to provide all meal periods, and other employment-related causes of action. The suit seeks damages,
interest, attorneys’ fees, costs and other relief on behalf of all non-exempt California employees of Purple LLC during the applicable
