2019 – 2023 Financial Overview
* Actuals as of September 30, 2023 (unaudited) plus 2023 Full Year Guidance (High End)

As of September 30, 2023 2023 Ful l Year Guidance (High End)
2019-2023 Summary
Newegg has experienced significant volatility in consumer demand during the pandemic and post-pandemic period.
During the pandemic, Newegg experienced a sudden surge of demand for IT/CE products, leading to an all-time high of $3.0 billion GMV for fiscal year 2021.
Post-pandemic, Newegg faced a slowdown in demand due to shifts in consumer behavior, return to office mandates, and delayed upgrade cycles as a result of pandemic-driven
purchasing. We temporarily experienced excess inventory levels, but were able to quickly correct the issues and maintain healthy inventory levels to achieve break-even Adjusted
EBITDA in 2022.
2023 inflation, demand remained slow due to overall economy, inflation, and high interest rates. Management team took swift actions to right -size the company
through cost reductions.
o Comparing full-year 2019 to 2023:
▪ GMV is expected decline 8.8%, mostly driven by declines in our marketplace business.
▪ Gross margin % is projected to increase by 1.0%; gross margin dollars projected to increase by $2.7M
▪ Additionally, we streamlined business processes and optimized headcount to create a projected reduction of$18.4M in comp and benefit expense.
▪ We reduced external marketing expenses by 50% and brought marketing efforts in-house by establishing Newegg Media.
▪ We focused on higher margin service revenue in fourth quarter of 2023, which we expect will continue into 2024.
▪ At the same time, we consolidated warehouse locations and implemented robotic picking process with Geek+. This resulted in approximately $600K of savings per month and is
expected to result in a projected annual savings of approximately $7.2M in 2024.
