    CurrentWRO in effect, company leveraging other partners and airfreight.
    TargetContinued mitigation of disruption, core styles remaining in stock, no material impact on Q3/Q4 revenue.

    Why it matters

    Verifies the effectiveness of supply chain diversification and mitigation strategies in maintaining product availability and achieving raised guidance.

    Our team is cross-functionally adapting our planning to mitigate disruption in the second half of the year. This includes leveraging capacity with our other strong existing partners and expediting their production.

    Q&A highlights

    7

    What factors are driving the strong new and returning customer growth?

    Growth is attributed to continuous product innovation (fit, function, comfort) and effective marketing campaigns like 'Never Change'. Word-of-mouth in healthcare settings is a unique driver for new customers, while returning customers are driven by the replenishment-based nature of the industry and expanded product offerings.

    I mean I think it goes back to our 2 North Stars, which is product and marketing. We have continued to deliver the best product that meets every need of a health care professional, and we're doing that head to toe across our layering system.

    Detailed Narrative

    01

    Supply Chain Resilience Amidst Challenges

    FIGS faced a challenge with a U.S. Customs and Border Protection withhold release order (WRO) preventing imports from a partner in Jordan. Despite this, the company leveraged its flexible supply chain, expediting production with other existing partners and adapting planning to mitigate disruption in the second half. Management emphasized that their high-volume, low-SKU count business makes them an attractive partner to suppliers, enabling agility. This resilience allowed them to raise both top and bottom-line targets for the full year, demonstrating confidence in their operational foundation.

    02

    Product Innovation and Expansion

    The company continues to innovate across style, color, fabrication, and fit. New wider-leg scrub pants and waistband options resonated strongly, while color drops like 'Espresso' and collaborations (Star Wars, Marvel's Spider-Man) drove excitement. Fabrication advancements include FIONx, FORMx, and the new FIBREx. Improvements in fit have led to lower returns and positive customer feedback. Non-scrubwear grew 40%, now representing nearly 20% of net revenues, with plans to expand the layering system to include underscrubs, lab coats, outerwear, footwear, compression socks, and jewelry.

    03

    Brand Advocacy and Community Engagement

    FIGS actively supports the healthcare community through various initiatives. During Nurses Week, they highlighted challenges and celebrated commitment. The company hosted a Healthcare Human Rally in Washington D.C., advocating for the FIGS-Created Healthcare Human Act (federal tax credit), funding for the Dr. Lorna Breen Act (mental health services), and the Speak FREE Act (protecting healthcare professionals' right to speak up). They also held a FIGS retreat for nearly 80 healthcare professionals to recharge and connect, emphasizing these touchpoints as a priority.

    04

    Strategic Market Expansion

    All three key growth drivers—International, TEAMS, and Community Hubs—achieved record net revenues. International sales grew 67%, with over 50 points from existing markets, and the company expanded into 27 new markets year-to-date, now operating in 85 countries. The TEAMS business gained momentum, onboarding large institutions like Bupa Dental Care for their 400 dental centers across the U.K. Community Hubs delivered strong comparable store performance and new store contributions, with four new leases signed for openings later this year in key healthcare communities.

    05

    Leading Indicators and Future Engagement

    Management highlighted the continued growth of leading indicators such as search, website traffic, and social followers, which create a strong pipeline for future engagement. Year-to-date improvements were observed across the entire brand funnel, from awareness to consideration to preference. This indicates that the brand is increasingly cutting through the market, positioning FIGS to expand its leadership and redefine expectations within the healthcare community, with significant long-term opportunities ahead.
