(the "Company" or "Stitch Fix" or "we" or "us") has elected to provide access to our proxy materials, including this Proxy Statement, over the internet. Accordingly, we have sent you a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the "Notice") because the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") is soliciting your proxy to vote at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "2024 Annual Meeting"), including at any adjournments or postponements of the meeting.

This Proxy Statement contains information to be voted on at the 2024 Annual Meeting and certain other information required by the SEC.

We will begin mailing this Notice on or about October 30, 2024, to all stockholders of record entitled to vote at the 2024 Annual Meeting.

On this record date, there were 104,524,754 shares of Class A common stock and 22,318,035 shares of Class B common stock outstanding and entitled to vote. Our Class A common stock has one vote per share and our Class B common stock has ten votes per share.

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name.If, on October 18, 2024, your shares were registered directly in your name with Stitch Fix's transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, then you are a stockholder of record. As a stockholder of record, you may vote online at the meeting or vote by proxy. Whether or not you plan to attend the meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy online as instructed on the Notice, to vote by proxy over the telephone, or to vote by proxy using a proxy card that you may request or that we may elect to deliver at a later time, to ensure your vote is counted.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker or Bank.If, on October 18, 2024,your shares were held not in your name, but in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in "street name" and the Notice isbeing forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered to be the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the 2024 Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank, or other agent regarding how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the 2024 Annual Meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares online or submit questions at the meeting unless you request and obtain a valid proxy from your broker, bank, or other agent.

How Many Votes You Have

On each matter to be voted upon, you have one vote for each share of Class A common stock and ten votes for each share of Class B common stock you owned as of October 18, 2024. The Class A common stock and Class B common stock will vote together as a single class on all proposals described in this Proxy Statement.

Proposals to be Voted on at the 2024 Annual Meeting

There are four matters scheduled for a vote:

Proposal 1.Election of our three director nominees.

Proposal 2.Indication, on an advisory basis, of the preferred frequency of stockholder advisory votes on the compensation of the Company's named executive officers.

Proposal 3.Approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of the Company's named executive officers.

The Board knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the 2024 Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote on those matters in accordance with their best judgment.

Board Vote Recommendations

The Board recommends that you vote FOR the election of each director nominee, for "1 Year" as the preferred frequency of advisory votes to approve executive compensation, FOR the approval, on an advisory basis, of executive compensation, and FOR the ratification of the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm.

Beneficial Owner.If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of your broker, bank, or other agent, you should have received a Notice containing voting instructions from that organization rather than from Stitch Fix. Simply follow the voting instructions from that organization to ensure that your vote is counted. To vote in person at the 2024 Annual Meeting, you must obtain a valid proxy from your broker, bank, or other agent. Follow the instructions from that organization included with these materials or contact them to request a proxy form.

Internet proxy voting may be provided to allow you to vote your shares online, with procedures designed to ensure the authenticity and correctness of your proxy vote instructions.

If You Do Not Vote or Give Specific Voting Instructions

Stockholder of Record.If you are a stockholder of record and do not vote online, by telephone, or by completing a proxy card in advance of the 2024 Annual Meeting, or online at the 2024 Annual Meeting, your shares will not be voted.

If you retua signed and dated proxy card or otherwise vote without marking voting selections, your shares will be voted, as applicable, "For" the election of each director nominee, for "1 Year" as the preferred frequency of advisory votes to approve executive compensation, "For" the approval of executive compensation, and "For" the ratification of the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm. If any other matter is properly presented at the meeting, your proxyholder (one of the individuals named on your proxy card) will vote your shares using his or her best judgment.

Beneficial Owner.If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and you do not instruct your broker, bank, or other agent how to vote your shares, that agent may still be able to vote your shares in its discretion. Brokers, banks, and other securities intermediaries may use their discretion to vote your "uninstructed" shares with respect to matters considered to be "routine," but not with respect to "non-routine" matters. In this regard, Proposals 1, 2, and 3 are considered to be "non-routine," meaning that your broker may not vote your shares on those proposals in the absence of your voting instructions. However, Proposal 4 is considered to be "routine," meaning that if you do not retuvoting instructions to your broker by its deadline, your broker may vote your shares in its discretion on Proposal 4.

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, in order to ensure your shares are voted in the way you would prefer, youmustprovide voting instructions to your broker, bank, or other agent by the deadline provided in the materials you receive from your broker, bank, or other agent.

Changing Your Vote

Stockholder of Record.You can revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the meeting. If you are the record holder of your shares, you may change your vote or revoke your proxy by:

•submitting another properly completed proxy card with a later date or granting a subsequent proxy online or by telephone;

•sending a timely written notice that you are revoking your proxy to Stitch Fix's Corporate Secretary at 1 Montgomery Street, Suite 1500, San Francisco, California 94104 (such notice will be considered timely if it is received by the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the date of the 2024 Annual Meeting); or

•attending the 2024 Annual Meeting and voting online.

Simply attending the meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy. Your most recent proxy card or telephone or internet proxy is the one that is counted.

Beneficial Owner.If your shares are held by a broker, bank, or other agent, you should follow the instructions provided by that organization.

Votes Needed for Approval


Proposal	Vote Required for Approval	Effect of Abstentions	Effect of Broker Non-Votes(1)
1. Election of directors	Nominees that receive the most "For" votes; "Withhold" votes will have no effect	Not applicable	No effect
2. Advisory vote on the frequency of stockholder advisory votes on executive compensation	The frequency (one, two, or three years) that receives the votes of a majority of the voting power of the shares present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter(2)	Against each of the proposed voting frequencies	No effect
3. Advisory vote on executive compensation ("say on pay")	"For" votes from a majority of the voting power of the shares present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter	Against	No effect
4. Ratification of the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for its fiscal year ending August 2, 2025	"For" votes from a majority of the voting power of the shares present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter	Against	Not applicable(3)

(1)When a beneficial owner of shares held in street name does not give voting instructions to his or her broker, bank, or other agent holding his or her shares as to how to vote on matters deemed to be "non-routine," the broker cannot vote the shares. These unvoted shares are counted as "broker non-votes." Proposals 1, 2, and 3 are considered to be "non-routine," so we expect broker non-votes to exist in connection with those proposals.

(2)In the event that no frequency receives a majority of the votes, the Company will consider the frequency that receives the most votes cast to be the frequency preferred by our stockholders.

(3)This proposal is considered to be "routine." If you hold your shares in street name and do not provide voting instructions to your broker, bank, or other agent that holds your shares, your broker has discretionary authority to vote your shares on this proposal.

Who Will Count the Votes

Votes will be counted by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., our inspector of election for the meeting.

Quorum Requirement

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting under our Amended and Restated Bylaws (the "Bylaws") and Delaware law. A quorum will be present if stockholdersholdingat least a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares entitled to vote are present at the meeting online or represented by proxy. On the record date, there were 104,524,754 shares of Class A common stock outstanding and 22,318,035 shares of Class B common stock outstanding and entitled to vote. Our Class A common stock has one vote per share and our Class B common stock has ten votes per share. Thus, the holders of shares representing an aggregate of 163,852,553 votes must be present online or represented by proxy at the 2024 Annual Meeting to have a quorum.

Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement. If there is no quorum, either the chairperson of the meeting or the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present at the meeting online or represented by proxy may adjouthe meeting to another date.

Voting Results

Preliminary voting results will be announced at the meeting. In addition, final voting results will be published in a current report on Form 8-K that we expect to file within four business days after the meeting. If final voting results are not available to us in time to file a Form 8-K within four business days after the meeting, we intend to file a Form 8-K to publish preliminary results and, within four business days after the final results are known to us, file an additional Form 8-K to publish the final results.

Proxy Solicitation Expenses

We will pay for the entire cost of soliciting proxies. In addition to these proxy materials, our directors and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone, or by other means of communication. Directors and employees will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies. We may also reimburse brokerage firms, banks, and other agents for the cost of forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners.

Proxy Materials

Multiple Notices

If you received more than one Notice, your shares may be registered in more than one name or in different accounts. Please follow the voting instructions on each of the Notices to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

Requesting Additional Copies of the Proxy Materials

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or other annual meeting materials with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single notice or set of proxy materials or other annual meeting materials addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as "householding," potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

A number of brokers with account holders who are Stitch Fix stockholders will be householding the Company's proxy materials. A single Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from us (if you are a stockholder of record) or your broker (if you are a beneficial owner) that we or they will be householding communications to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, or if you currently receive multiple copies and would like to request householding of your communications, please notify your broker or Stitch Fix. Direct your written request to Stitch Fix, Inc. Corporate Secretary, 1 Montgomery Street, Suite 1500, San Francisco, California 94104, or contact our Corporate Secretary at (415) 882-7765.

Next Year's Annual Meeting

Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations

To be considered for inclusion in the proxy materials for next year's annual meeting of stockholders (the "2025 Annual Meeting"), your proposal must be submitted in writing by July 4, 2025, to our Corporate Secretary at 1 Montgomery Street, Suite 1500, San Francisco, California 94104, and must comply with all applicable requirements of Rule 14a-8 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"); provided, however, that if our 2025Annual Meeting is held before November 12, 2025, or after January 11, 2026, then the deadline is a reasonable amount of time prior to the date we begin to print and mail our proxy statement for the 2025 Annual Meeting.

Pursuant to Section 5(b)(3) of our Bylaws, if you wish to submit a proposal or director nomination at the 2025 Annual Meeting that is not to be included in next year's proxy materials, or provide notice of a solicitation of proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company's nominees pursuant to Rule 14a-19, you must provide written notice no later than the close of business on September 13, 2025, nor earlier than the close of business on August 14, 2025, to our Corporate Secretary at 1 Montgomery Street, Suite 1500, San Francisco, California 94104; provided, however, that if our 2025 Annual Meeting is held before November 12, 2025, or after January 11, 2026, then the deadline is (a) no earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to the date of the 2024 Annual Meeting and (b) not later than the close of business on the later of (i) the 90th day prior to the 2025 Annual Meeting or (ii) the tenth day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made.

In addition to satisfying the foregoing requirements under our Bylaws, to comply with the "universal proxy rules," stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company's nominees at the 2025 Annual Meeting must comply with Rule 14a-19 promulgated under the Exchange Act, and must provide written notice containing the information required by Rule 14a-19(b) to our Corporate Secretary at 1 Montgomery Street, Suite 1500, San Francisco, California 94104.

Pursuant to Section 5(d) of our Bylaws, in the event that the number of directors in the class of directors whose term shall expire at the next annual meeting of stockholders (the "Expiring Class") is increased and we do not make any public announcement of (a) the appointment of a director to such class or (b) the newly created directorship in such class (if no appointment was made) at least ten days before the last day a stockholder may deliver a notice of nomination in accordance with our Bylaws, then a stockholder's notice required by our Bylaws and which complies with the requirements in our Bylaws, other than the timing requirements in Section 5(b)(3), shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new positions in such Expiring Class created by such increase, if it is received by our Corporate Secretary at 1 Montgomery Street, Suite 1500, San Francisco, California 94104, not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the day on which such public announcement is first made by us.

You are also advised to review our Bylaws, which contain additional requirements about advance notice of stockholder proposals and director nominations.

You may also contact our Corporate Secretary at the address set forth above for a copy of the relevant bylaw provisions regarding the requirements for making stockholder proposals and nominating director candidates.

PROPOSAL 1

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Classified Board

Stitch Fix's Board is divided into three classes. Each class consists, as nearly as possible, of one third of the total number of directors, and each class has a three-year term. Vacancies on the Board may be filled only by persons elected by a majority of the remaining directors. A director elected by the Board to fill a vacancy in a class, including vacancies created by an increase in the number of directors, shall serve for the remainder of the full term of that class and until the director's successor is duly elected and qualified.

The Board presently has eight members. There are three directors in the class whose term of office expires at the 2024 Annual Meeting: Ms. Lake, Ms. McCollam and Ms. Williams.

Each of our nominees listed below is currently a director of the Company. Ms. Lake, Ms. McCollam and Ms. Williams were recommended for nomination to the Company's Board by the Company's Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. If elected at the 2024 Annual Meeting, each of Ms. Lake, Ms. McCollam and Ms. Williams would serve until the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders and until her successor has been duly elected and qualified, or, if sooner, until her death, resignation, or removal.

The following table sets forth information with respect to each of our three nominees for election at the 2024 Annual Meeting and each of our directors whose terms will continue after the 2024 Annual Meeting, as of October 30, 2024:


Name	Age	Director Since	Principal Occupation / Position Held with the Company

Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes of the holders of shares present online or represented by proxy and entitled to vote generally on the election of directors. Accordingly, the three nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative votes will be elected. Shares represented by executed proxies will be voted, if authority to do so is not withheld, for the election of the nominees named in this Proxy Statement. If any nominee becomes unavailable for election as a result of an unexpected occurrence, shares that would have been voted for that nominee will instead be voted for the election of a substitute nominee proposed by the Board. Each person nominated for election has agreed to serve if elected. The Company's management has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unable to serve.

Below are brief biographies of each nominee and each of our other directors whose terms will continue after the 2024 Annual Meeting.

INFORMATION REGARDING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Independence of the Board

As required under the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") listing standards, a majority of the members of a listed company's board of directors must qualify as "independent," as affirmatively determined by the board of directors. The Board consults with the Company's counsel to ensure that the Board's determinations are consistent with relevant securities and other laws and regulations regarding the definition of "independent," including those set forth in pertinent Nasdaq listing standards, as in effect from time to time.

Our Board has undertaken a review of the independence of each director. Based on information provided by each director concerning her or his background, employment, and affiliations, our Board has determined that Mr. Amoo-Gottfried, Mr. Gurley, Ms. McCollam, Ms. Williams, Ms. Tan, and Mr. Baxter do not have relationships that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that each of these directors is "independent" as that term is defined under the listing requirements and rules of Nasdaq. Steven Anderson and Neal Mohan, our former directors who served on our Board during fiscal year 2024, were also determined to be independent during the period they served on our Board.

In making this determination, the Board found that none of these directors or nominees for director had a material or other disqualifying relationship with the Company.

Mr. Baer is not independent due to his position as the Chief Executive Officer of Stitch Fix and Ms. Lake is not independent because she is currently employed by the Company.

Board Leadership Structure

Our Board is currently chaired by the Founder and former Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Ms. Lake. The Board has also appointed Ms. McCollam as lead independent director. We believe that having an Executive Chair helps to ensure that the Board and management act with a common purpose and that an Executive Chair is well positioned to act as a bridge between management and the Board. We also believe that it is advantageous to have a Board Chair who has an extensive history with and knowledge of the Company, as is the case with Ms. Lake, while the separation of the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chair allows the Chief Executive Officer to focus on the management of the Company and the Chair to ensure that the Board is focused on its oversight responsibilities.

The Board appointed Ms. McCollam as the lead independent director to help reinforce the independence of the Board as a whole. The position of lead independent director has been structured to serve as an effective balance to the Executive Chair role. The lead independent director's responsibilities include, among other things: consulting with management on the agendas for regular Board meetings; presiding over Board meetings in the absence of the Chair; presiding over and establishing the agendas for meetings of the independent directors; presiding over any portions of Board meetings at which the evaluation or compensation of the Chief Executive Officer is presented or discussed; and coordinating Board committee updates to the full Board. As a result, we believe that the lead independent director can help ensure the effective, independent functioning of the Board in its oversight responsibilities. In addition,

we believe that the lead independent director is well positioned to build a consensus among independent directors and to serve as a conduit between the other independent directors, on the one hand, and the Executive Chair or Chief Executive Officer, on the other hand. In light of the Executive Chairperson's extensive history with and knowledge of the Company, and because the Board's lead independent director is empowered to play a significant role in the Board's leadership and in reinforcing the independence of the Board, we believe that this is the most effective board leadership structure for the Company.

Role of the Board in Risk Oversight

One of the Board's key functions is informed oversight of the Company's risk management process. The Board does not have a standing risk management committee, but administers this oversight function directly through the Board as a whole, as well as through various standing Board committees that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. In particular, our Board is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure, including a determination of the nature and level of risk appropriate for the Company. Our Audit Committee has the responsibility to oversee the Company's enterprise risk management program, including cybersecurity risks; to consider and discuss our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures; and to monitor compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees and reviews with management the Company's major governance risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor or mitigate such exposures, as well as our governance structure and Board succession risks. Our Compensation Committee reviews our compensation practices and policies as they relate to risk management and risk-taking incentives to determine whether such compensation policies and practices are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. It also monitors and oversees efforts to mitigate management succession risks. The entire Board meets with senior management periodically, and the applicable Board committees meet periodically with the employees responsible for risk management in the committees' respective areas of oversight. Both the Board as a whole and the various standing committees receive periodic reports from employees responsible for risk management, as well as incidental reports as matters may arise. It is the responsibility of the committee chairs to report findings regarding material risk exposures to the Board as quickly as possible.

Meetings of the Board

The Board met five times during the last fiscal year. Each Board member attended at least 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board and of the committees on which he or sheserved held during the portion of the last fiscal year for which he or shewas a director or committee member.

We ask our directors to attend each annual meeting of stockholders. Five of the seven directors serving at that time attended our 2023 annual meeting of stockholders.

Information Regarding Committees of the Board

The Board has three standing committees:an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The following table provides membership and meeting information as of October 30, 2024, for each of the Board committees:

Total meetings in fiscal year 2024	6	9	2

*Committee chairperson

Each of the committees has authority to engage legal counsel or other experts or consultants as it deems appropriate to carry out its responsibilities. The Board has determined that each member of each committee meets the applicable Nasdaq rules and regulations regarding "independence" and each member is free of any relationship that would impair his or her individual exercise of independent judgment with regard to the Company. The Board has adopted written charters for each of the committees, which are available in the Governance section of the Company's website at investors.stitchfix.com.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee of the Board was established by the Board in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act to oversee the Company's corporate accounting and financial reporting processes and audits of its financial statements. Our Board has determined that Ms. McCollam, Ms. Williams, and Mr. Gurley are "audit committee financial experts" within the meaning of SEC regulations. Each member of our Audit Committee can read and understand fundamental financial statements in accordance with applicable requirements. In arriving at these determinations, our Board has examined each Audit Committee member's scope of experience and the nature of their employment in the corporate finance sector.

The primary functions of this committee include:

•helping our Board oversee our corporate accounting and financial reporting processes;

•managing the selection, engagement, qualifications, independence, and performance of a qualified firm to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit our financial statements;

•discussing the scope and results of the audit with the independent registered public accounting firm and reviewing, with management and the independent accountants, our interim and year-end operating results;

•reviewing our cybersecurity policies and programs;

•developing procedures for employees to submit concerns anonymously about questionable accounting or audit matters;

•reviewing related-party transactions;

•reviewing the effectiveness of the Company's internal controls over financial reporting, any material issues with such controls, and any steps taken to address such issues; and

•approving or, as permitted, pre-approving, audit and permissible non-audit services to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm.

The Board reviews the Nasdaq listing standards definition of independence for audit committee members on an annual basis and has determined that all members of the Company's Audit Committee are independent (as independence is currently defined in Rule 5605(c)(2)(A)(i) and (ii) of the Nasdaq listing standards).

Report of the Audit Committee of the Board

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended August 3, 2024, with management of the Company. The Audit Committee has discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB"), including Auditing Standard No. 1301,Communications with Audit Committees,as adopted by the PCAOB, and the SEC. The Audit Committee has also received the written disclosures and the letter from Deloitte & Touche LLP required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding Deloitte & Touche LLP's communications with the audit committee concerning independence and has discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP the firm's independence. Based on the foregoing, the Audit Committee has recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 3, 2024.

THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

Compensation Committee

The primary purpose of our Compensation Committee is to discharge the responsibilities of the Board in overseeing our compensation policies, plans, and programs, and to review and determine the compensation to be paid to executive officers, directors, and other senior management, as appropriate. Specific responsibilities include:

•reviewing and approving the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer, other executive officers, and senior management;

•reviewing and making recommendations to the Board regarding the compensation paid to directors;

•reviewing and recommending to the Board succession plans for our executive officers;

•reviewing, adopting, amending, and terminating incentive compensation and equity plans, severance agreements, profit-sharing plans, bonus plans, change-of-control protections, and any other compensatory arrangements for executive officers and other senior management; and

•reviewing and establishing general policies relating to compensation and benefits of employees.

Each year, the Compensation Committee reviews with management the Company's Compensation Discussion and Analysis and considers whether to recommend that it be included in proxy statements and other filings.

All members of the Company's Compensation Committee are independent (as independence is currently defined in Rule 5605(d)(2) of the Nasdaq listing standards).

Compensation Committee Processes and Procedures

The agenda for each Compensation Committee meeting is usually developed in consultation with the Chair of the Compensation Committee. The Chief Executive Officer may not be present during the voting, deliberations, or determinations of the Compensation Committee regarding his compensation, but may be present (but not vote) during the voting and deliberations regarding the compensation of the other executive officers and senior management. The charter of the Compensation Committee grants the Compensation Committee full access to all books, records, facilities, and personnel of the Company. In addition, under its charter, the Compensation Committee has the authority to obtain, at the expense of the Company, advice and assistance from compensation consultants and internal and external legal, accounting, or other advisors and other external resources that the Compensation Committee considers necessary or appropriate in the performance of its duties. The Compensation Committee has direct responsibility for the oversight of the work of any consultants or advisors engaged for the purpose of advising the Committee. In particular, the Compensation Committee has the sole authority to retain, in its sole discretion, compensation consultants to assist in its evaluation ofexecutiveand director compensation, including the authority to approve the consultant's reasonable fees and other retention terms. Under its charter, the Compensation Committee may select, or receive advice from, a compensation consultant, legal counsel, or other advisor to the Compensation Committee only after taking into consideration the various factors prescribed by the SEC and Nasdaq that bear upon the advisor's independence; however, there is no requirement that any advisor be independent.

The specific determinations of the Compensation Committee with respect to executive compensation for the fiscal year ending August 3, 2024, are described in greater detail in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this Proxy Statement.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

As noted above, the Compensation Committee consists of Ms. Williams, Mr. Amoo-Gottfried, and Mr. Baxter. None of the members of the Compensation Committee are currently, or have been at any time, one of our officers or employees. None of our executive officers currently serve, or have served during the last year, as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving as a member of our Board or Compensation Committee.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The primary purpose of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is to oversee aspects of the Company's corporate governance functions. Specific responsibilities of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee include:

•identifying and evaluating candidates to serve as directors of the Company (consistent with criteria approved by the Board);

•reviewing and evaluating incumbent directors;

•overseeing periodic evaluations of the Board's performance, including committees of the Board;

•considering and making recommendations to the Board regarding the Board's leadership structure;

•making recommendations to the Board on continuing education of directors; and

•developing and making recommendations to the Board regarding our corporate governance guidelines, code of conduct, insider trading policy, and other related policies.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee believes that candidates for our Board should have certain minimum qualifications, including the ability to read and understand basic financial statements and having the highest personal integrity and ethics. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also considers such factors as possessing relevant expertise upon which to be able to offer advice and guidance to management, having sufficient time to devote to the affairs of the Company, demonstrated excellence in his or her field, having the ability to exercise sound business judgment, and having the commitment to rigorously represent the long-term interests of the Company's stockholders. However, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee retains the right to modify these qualifications from time to time. Candidates for director nominees are reviewed in the context of the current composition of the Board, the operating requirements of the Company, and the long-term interests of stockholders. In conducting this assessment, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee typically considers diversity, age, skills, and such other factors as it deems appropriate, given the current needs of the Board and the Company, to maintain a balance of knowledge, experience, and capability.

In the case of incumbent directors whose terms of office are set to expire, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews these directors' overall service to the Company during their terms, including the number of meetings attended, level of participation, quality of performance, and any other relationships and transactions that might impair the directors' independence. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also takes into account the results of Board and committee evaluations, which are conducted annually.

In the case of new director candidates, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also determines whether the nominee is independent for Nasdaq purposes, which determination is based upon applicable Nasdaq listing standards, applicable SEC rules and regulations, and the advice of counsel, if necessary. To identify candidates for Board membership, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee uses its network of contacts to compile a list of potential candidates, but may also engage a professional search firm, if it deems appropriate. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee conducts any appropriate and necessary inquiries into the backgrounds and qualifications of possible candidates after considering the function and needs of the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meets to discuss and consider the candidates' qualifications and then selects a nominee for recommendation to the Board.

At this time, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not have a policy with regard to the consideration of director candidates recommended by stockholders. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee believes that it is in the best position to identify, review, evaluate, and select qualified candidates for Board membership, based on the comprehensive criteria for Board membership approved by the Board.

All members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are independent (as independence is currently defined in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Nasdaq listing standards).

Stockholder Communications with the Board

The Board has adopted a formal process by which stockholders may communicate with the Board or any of its directors. Stockholders who wish to communicate with the Board may do so by sending written communications addressed to the Corporate Secretary of Stitch Fix at 1 Montgomery Street, Suite 1500, San Francisco, CA 94104. These communications will be reviewed by the Corporate Secretary to determine whether it is appropriate for presentation to the Board or such director. The purpose of this screening is to allow the Board to avoid having to consider irrelevant or inappropriate communications (such as advertisements, solicitations, and product inquiries). The screening procedures have been approved by a majority of the independent directors.

Code of Conduct

The Company has adopted the Stitch FixCode of Conduct, which applies to all executive officers, directors, and employees. The Code of Conduct is available on the Company's website at investors.stitchfix.com. If the Company makes any substantive amendments to the Code of Conduct or grants any waiver from a provision of the Code to any executive officer or director, the Company will promptly disclose the nature of the amendment or waiver on its website. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for periodically reviewing the Code of Conduct and recommending any changes to our Board for consideration.

Corporate Responsibility

At Stitch Fix, we are committed to relationships-relationships with our clients, the planet, our communities, and those who bring the Stitch Fix experience to life every day.

Equity

We recognize the responsibility, power, and opportunity we have to advance equity by acknowledging and embracing differences and designing everything we do with the understanding that diversity makes our work and our world better. We are dedicated to building strong relationships and inspiring people, including our employees, to be their best selves. We believe that a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace is essential for fostering these relationships and enabling innovation. By attracting, developing, and retaining talent from all backgrounds, we can thoughtfully serve our diverse client base and drive our mission forward.

Threads of Support

•Universal parental leave: We understand the realities working families face, and encourage our employees to take parental leave to support theirs. In turn, we offer 16 weeks of paid parental leave for full-time employees, with equal benefits to new parents of any gender or family composition.

•Inclusive benefits: In 2022, Stitch Fix extended our mental health and family planning benefits to both full-and part-time associates, at no cost to the employee. We also partnered with our medical provider to provide access to health benefits for transgender employees, including coverage for gender affirmation surgery.

•Stitch Fix Communities: Our Communities (Employee Resource Groups) create and formally support safe, internal spaces for groups with shared identities and interests.

Our Current Representation

The goal of our diversity, equity, and inclusion strategy is to ensure that our people and business practices allow us to build our Company, products, and experiences that reflect the richness of the communities in which we operate. We know that a diverse employee base makes Stitch Fix better, our ideas stronger, and our experience more broadly resonate with the clients we serve today, and will serve in the future. We work towards equitable practices to mitigate bias across areas like hiring, employee performance, evaluation, and promotion, our employee experience, and our vendor and brand engagement.

To ensure that our ongoing diversity, equity, and inclusion strategy is informed by and rooted in data, we review and analyze equity and representation data regularly. We do this to drive knowledge, precision, and transparency-not only for ourselves internally, but also to contribute to the dialogue and information sharing that is critical to chartering a path forward for the industry.

•Gender representation: We are proud of the number of women at Stitch Fix, including our Founder. 82% of our employees, 33% of our executive team, 67% of our people managers, 43% of our tech employees, and 50% of our Board identify as women.

•Racial and ethnic diversity: Our products and workplaces are made better with racial and ethnic diversity. 47% of our employees, 30% of our executive team, 36% of our people managers, 43% of our tech employees, and 50% of our Board identify as people of color. And while 20% of our employee population identifies as Black and 15% as Latinx, our representation for people managers is 12% Black and 8% Latinx. We are committed to increasing the representation of people of color, particularly in leadership, across our teams.

Our ongoing work

•Size-inclusive clothing: Great style comes in every size. We carry 100 brands with plus styles, and offer size-inclusive styles across all of our private label brands. We're proud of our role in helping more than 30 brand partners expand their size offerings, as well as the more than 60 brands who develop plus styles that are exclusive to Stitch Fix. Our product sizes range from women's Petite to Plus sizes 0-24W/3X, to men's Big & Tall sizes, up to 3XL.

•Styles for all: Our Kids' stylists have the ability to select from our entire inventory, so that a kiddo can get a Fix that reflects their true self in a fun, authentic and positive way.

•Our vendor diversity: As a member of the Vendor Diversity Coalition, we collect diversity, equity, and inclusion data from our vendors to set the baseline for future vendor diversity commitments. This helps us make informed decisions about who we work with so that we do our part to create a more equitable vendor ecosystem.

Taking responsibility

We choose to use our resources and influence wisely to create positive, systemic change in the apparel industry and beyond:

•Supporting an equal right to vote: The right to vote is fundamental to our democracy and to advancing a more equitable society. We make sure that all of our U.S. employees, no matter their identity or political party, have time to vote.

•Stitch Fix for Good: Our Styling team supports the communities in which we live and work through regularly volunteering and supporting opportunities focused on equity and sustainability.

Sustainability

We're responsible for creating the change we want to see in the world. It starts with establishing an ethical supply chain and taking measurable action toward a healthier planet. From our suppliers to the materials we work with, we are committed to using the power of our data, resources, and partnerships to catalyze change.

Sustainable materials

We strive to source the main materials in our private label products more sustainably than conventional alternatives.

•Cotton: Our goal is to increase the percentage of sustainable sourced cotton in our private label items more than the conventional alternative through partnerships that work with farmers to reduce chemicals, water usage, carbon and provide better resources for land health. Working with Better Cotton is part of our strategy to achieve this goal.

•Polyester: Our goal is to increase the percentage of sustainable sourced polyester in our private label items more than the conventional alternative by utilizing recycled plastic in the fiber content, rather than virgin materials, with the aim of reducing waste and production impacts. We verify these claims through globally recognized certifications.

•Viscose: Our goal is to increase the percentage of sustainable sourced viscose in our private label items more than conventional alternatives by ensuring that the wood pulp fiber materials were not derived from ancient or endangered forests. Our work is supported by membership in The Canopy Initiative.

Responsibly produced

It matters to us that the products we carry are produced with demonstrated efforts to protect workers and the environment.

•Stitch Fix vendors: Our vendor relationships are based on shared ethics. Through our Vendor Code of Conduct, our vendors are committed to minimizing their environmental impact and providing working conditions that uphold local labor laws and international standards on worker and human rights.

•Private label factories: We take our factory and vendor partnerships seriously and regularly evaluate workplace conditions, wages, working hours, health and safety, non-discrimination, and more through a comprehensive audit process.

•Conflict-free minerals: We keep an ethical mineral supply chain by working with vendors to ensure minerals mined in known conflict areas are not used in our products.

•Animal welfare: We are committed to practices that support the humane treatment of animals. We believe that animals should not suffer for the sake of fashion. To support this goal, we ban the use of animal fur, angora and mohair in all products sold by Stitch Fix.

How we deliver

We use data and bold ideas to deliver our products and operate our business more sustainably.

•Inventory management: Stitch Fix was created to understand and serve people as individuals. Our data-driven inventory model helps us deliver on this promise, as well as reduce waste. Our data and best-in-class recommendation algorithms help us understand what clients want and predict inventory with confidence, allowing us to deliver on our promise to reduce waste by selling through our inventory at higher rates than the industry average. We exist to help people find what they love: clothes they will keep and wear for a long time. Our focus is on client happiness, not pushing products.

•Future-proofing our packaging: A sustainable future demands forward-looking changes in the way we package our products. Here are steps we've taken toward sustainable packaging:

◦Boxes are made from 100% post-recycled FSC-certified material, and are recyclable.

◦Standard Stitch Fix Freestyle mailers are made from 100% SFI-certified recycled fiber, and are recyclable.

◦We reduced box size and weight, in some cases by as much as 24%.

◦We use 100% FSC-certified recycled and recyclable in-box kraft paper.

PROPOSAL 2

ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF SOLICITATION OF ADVISORY STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

In accordance with the requirements of Section 14A of the Exchange Act and the related rules of the SEC, our stockholders are also entitled to vote, on an advisory basis, on whether the "say-on-pay" vote, as required by Section 14A of the Exchange Act, should occur every one, two, or three years. The vote on the frequency of the say-on-pay vote, just as with the say-on-pay vote itself, is advisory only, and it also is not binding on the Company, the Board, or the Compensation Committee. Although the vote is non-binding, the Compensation Committee and the Board will carefully consider the outcome of the vote when determining the frequency of future stockholder advisory votes to approve the compensation of our named executive officers.

After careful consideration, the Board has determined that a say-on-pay vote that occurs every year is the most appropriate option for our Company at this time. Therefore, the Board recommends that you vote for a "1 Year" frequency for the say-on-pay vote.

Although the Board recommends a say-on-pay vote be held every year, you may vote one of four choices for this Proposal 2 on the proxy card: "1 Year", "2 Years", "3 Years", or "Abstain." The text of the resolution in respect of Proposal 2 is as follows:

"RESOLVED, that the option of once every 1 year, 2 years, or 3 years that receives the majority for this resolution will be determined to be the preferred frequency with which the Company is to hold an advisory stockholder vote to approve the compensation paid to the Company's named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and narrative discussion."

The frequency ("1 Year", "2 Years", "3 Years") that receives the vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter will be deemed to be the frequency preferred by our stockholders. In the event that no option receives a majority of the votes, we will consider the option that receives the most votes cast to be the frequency preferred by our stockholders.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS

A VOTE FOR "1 YEAR" FOR PROPOSAL 2.

PROPOSAL 3

ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

In accordance with SEC rules, we are providing our stockholders with the opportunity to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers, as described in this Proxy Statement.

This proposal, commonly referred to as the "say-on-pay" vote, gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on the compensation of our named executive officers. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our named executive officers and our executive compensation philosophy, policies, and practices, as discussed in this Proxy Statement. Accordingly, we ask our stockholders to approve the compensation of our named executive officers, as described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this Proxy Statement, by casting a non-binding advisory vote "FOR" the following resolution:

"RESOLVED, that the stockholders of Stitch Fix, Inc. approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to the named executive officers, as disclosed in the Company's Proxy Statement for the 2024 Annual Meeting, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables, and narrative discussion."

Because this is an advisory vote, the result will not be binding on the Board or the Compensation Committee. However, the vote will provide us with important stockholder feedback about our executive compensation philosophy, policies, and practices. The Board and the Compensation Committee value the opinions of our stockholders and expect to take into account the outcome of the vote when considering future executive compensation decisions and when evaluating our executive compensation program.

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter at the 2024 Annual Meeting will be required to approve this proposal.

If stockholders approve the "1 Year" option as the frequency of future say-on-pay votes under Proposal 2, we expect that we will conduct our next say-on-pay vote at the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS

A VOTE FOR PROPOSAL 3.

PROPOSAL 4

RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee of the Board has selected Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending August 2, 2025, and has further directed that management submit the selection of its independent registered public accounting firm for ratification by the stockholders at the 2024 Annual Meeting. Deloitte & Touche LLP has served as the Company's auditor since 2014. Representatives ofDeloitte & Touche LLP are expected to be present at the 2024 Annual Meeting. They will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Neither the Company's Bylaws nor other governing documents or law require stockholder ratification of the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. However, the Audit Committee is submitting the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP to the stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the stockholders fail to ratify the selection, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether or not to retain that firm for the fiscal year ending August 2, 2025. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of different independent auditors at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders.

Principal Accountant Fees and Services

The following table represents aggregate fees billed to the Company for the fiscal years ended August 3, 2024, and July 29, 2023, by Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Company's principal accountant:


Fiscal Year
2024	2023
Audit Fees(1)	$	2,675,000	$	2,476,000
Audit-Related Fees(2)	18,000	18,000
Tax Fees	-	-
All Other Fees(3)	3,790	3,790
Total Fees	$	2,696,790	$	2,497,790

(1)Audit fees consist of fees for professional services rendered in connection with the annual audit of our consolidated financial statements, the review of our quarterly condensed consolidated financial statements, and consultations on accounting matters directly related to the audit.

(2)Audit-related fees consist of fees for professional services rendered in connection with the submission of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 related to our 2017 Incentive Plan in fiscal years 2023 and 2024.

(3)All other fees consist of fees for all other services not included in the categories set forth above. In fiscal years 2024 and 2023, fees were for a subscription-based tool.

All services described above were pre-approved by the Audit Committee. In connection with the audit of our fiscal year 2024 financial statements, the Company entered into an engagement agreement with Deloitte & Touche LLP that sets forth the terms by which Deloitte & Touche LLP will perform audit services for the Company. During the fiscal year ended August 3, 2024, none of the total hours expended on the Company's financial audit by Deloitte & Touche LLP were provided by persons other than Deloitte & Touche LLP's full-time permanent employees.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The Audit Committee follows certain procedures for the pre-approval of audit and non-audit services rendered by the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP. The Committee generally pre-approves specified services in the defined categories of audit services, audit-related services, and tax services. Pre-approval may also be given as part of the Audit Committee's approval of the scope of the engagement of the independent auditor or on an individual, explicit, case-by-case basis before the independent auditor is engaged to provide each service. The pre-approval of services may be delegated to one or more of the Audit Committee's members, but the decision must be reported to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

The Audit Committee has determined that the rendering of services other than audit services by Deloitte & Touche LLP is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence.

DELINQUENT SECTION 16(a) REPORTS

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company's directors, officers, and beneficial owners of more than 10% of a registered class of the Company's equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of the Company.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the compensation program for our chief executive officer, our chief financial officer, and our most highly compensated executive officers (other than our chief executive officer and chief financial officer) who were serving at the end of fiscal year 2024 (our "named executive officers"). During fiscal year 2024, our named executive officers were:

•Matt Baer, our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO");

•David Aufderhaar, our Chief Financial Officer ("CFO");

•Casey O'Connor, our Chief Legal Officer ("CLO") and Corporate Secretary; and

•Anthony Bacos, our Chief Product & Technology Officer ("CTO"), who joined the Company on November 6, 2023.

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the material elements of our executive compensation program during fiscal year 2024. It also provides an overview of our executive compensation philosophy and objectives. Finally, it analyzes how and why the Compensation Committee of our Board (the "Compensation Committee") arrived at the specific compensation decisions for our named executive officers for fiscal year 2024, including the key factors that it considered in determining their compensation.

All of our executive officers are named executive officers; we use those terms interchangeably below.

Executive Summary

Stitch Fix is the leading online personal styling service that helps people discover the styles they will love that fit perfectly so they always look - and feel - their best. Few things are more personal than getting dressed, but finding clothing that fits and looks great can be a challenge. Stitch Fix solves that problem. By pairing expert stylists with best-in-class AI and recommendation algorithms, the Company leverages its assortment of exclusive and national brands to meet each client's individual tastes and needs, making it convenient for clients to express their personal style without having to spend hours in stores or sifting through endless choices online.

Stitch Fix is powered by data science. Our data science capabilities consist of our rich data set, best-in-class artificial intelligence and our proprietary algorithms, which fuel our business by enhancing the client experience and driving business model efficiencies. The vast majority of our client data is provided directly and explicitly by the client, rather than inferred, scraped, or obtained from other sources. We also gather extensive merchandise data, such as inseam, pocket shape, silhouette, and fit. This large and growing data set provides the foundation for proprietary algorithms that we use throughout our business, including those that make recommendations to our Stylists, predict purchase behavior, forecast demand, optimize inventory, and enable us to design new apparel. We believe our data science capabilities give us a significant competitive advantage, and as our data set grows, our algorithms become more powerful.

Fiscal Year 2025 Compensation Decisions

For fiscal year 2025, the Compensation Committee has decided to grant performance share units ("PSUs") instead of options to named executive officers and other members of management. The Compensation Committee believes that PSUs provide greater alignment between the interests of our named executive officers and the interests of our stockholders. PSUs also provide incentives that motivate the achievement of our key financial, client, and operational results and strategic objectives.

Executive Compensation Policies and Practices

We endeavor to maintain sound governance standards consistent with our executive compensation policies and practices. The Compensation Committee evaluates our executive compensation program on a regular basis to ensure that it is consistent with our short- and long-term goals given the dynamic nature of our business and the market in which we compete for executive talent. The following summarizes our executive compensation and related policies and practices:


WHAT WE DO	WHAT WE DON'T DO
Retain an Independent Compensation Advisor.The CompensationCommittee engaged its own compensation consultant to provide information, analysis, and other advice, independent of management. This consultant performed no other services for us in fiscal year 2024.	No Executive Retirement Plans.We do not offer pension or retirementplans or arrangements to our named executive officers that are different from or in addition to those offered to our other employees.
Performance-Based Annual Bonus.We maintain a rigorous performance-based annual bonus program.	No Perquisites.Other than certain benefits relating to remote work for certain executive officers, we do not provide perquisites or other personal benefits toour named executive officers.
Annual Executive Compensation Review.The Compensation Committeeconducts an annual review of our compensation strategy, including our compensation peer group and our compensation-related risk profile.	No Special Health or Welfare Benefits.Our named executive officersparticipate in broad-based, Company-sponsored health and welfare benefits programs on the same basis as our other full-time, salaried employees.
Compensation at Risk.Our executive compensation program is designed sothat a significant portion of compensation is at risk, based on our performance on key metrics and structured to align the interests of our named executive officers and stockholders, as reflected in performance-based annual short-term cash bonuses and long-term equity awards.	No Hedging or Pledging of our Equity Securities.We do not permitdirectors or our employees, including our executive officers, to hedge or pledge our equity securities.
Stock Ownership Policy.We maintain a stock ownership policy that requiresour directors, named executive officers, and other members of management to maintain a minimum ownership level of our common stock.	No Post-Employment Tax Reimbursement.We do not provide any taxreimbursement payments or gross-ups on any executive officer severance, change-in-control payments, benefits, or otherwise.
Long-Term Vesting of Equity Awards.Equity awards granted to our executive officers vest over a three-year period.	No Single-Trigger Cash Severance on the Occurrence of a Change-in-Control. Severance benefits and payments in connection with a change-in-control require both a change-in-control of the Company and a subsequent qualifying termination of employment event ("double-trigger arrangement").

At our 2018 annual meeting of stockholders, we conducted an initial non-binding stockholder advisory vote on the frequency with which we should hold future non-binding stockholder advisory votes on the compensation of our named executive officers (a "say-on-pay vote"). Our stockholders overwhelmingly agreed with our Board's recommendation that we should hold these say-on-pay votes on an annual basis.

At our 2023annual meeting of stockholders, we conducted a say-on-pay vote. Over 93% of the votes cast on the proposal agreed with our Board's recommendation to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to our named executive officers. For our 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, our Board is recommending that our stockholders approve the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement. For additional information about this say-on-pay proposal, see Proposal 3 in this Proxy Statement.

Our Board and the Compensation Committee value the opinions of our stockholders, and will continue to consider the result of the say-on-pay vote, as well as feedback received throughout the fiscal year, when making compensation decisions for our named executive officers.

Executive Compensation Philosophy

Our executive compensation program is guided by our overarching philosophy of paying for demonstrable performance. Consistent with this philosophy, we have designed our executive compensation program to achieve the following primary objectives:

•provide compensation and benefit levels that will attract, retain, and reward a highly talented team of executive officers while managing costs responsibly;

•provide incentives that motivate and reward achievement of our key financial and operational results and strategic objectives that enhance stockholder value over the long term;

•establish a direct link between our financial and operational results and strategic objectives and the compensation of our executive officers; and

•align the interests and objectives of our executive officers with those of our stockholders.

Program Design

We use three principal elements to structure the compensation opportunities of our executive officers: base salary; the opportunity to eaan annual cash bonus based on the achievement of financial and strategic performance objectives; and long-term incentive compensation opportunities in the form of equity awards. While the pay mix may vary from year to year, the ultimate goal is to achieve our compensation objectives as described above.

We also provide our named executive officers with the same benefits available to all of our similarly-situated employees, including retirement benefits under our Section 401(k) savings plan (the "401(k) Plan") and participation in our employee health and welfare benefit programs with no special executive benefits.

The design of our executive compensation program is influenced by a variety of factors, with the primary goals of aligning the interests of our executive officers and stockholders and linking pay with performance. We do not have any formal policies for allocating compensation among base salary, annual cash bonuses, and equity awards; short- and long-term compensation; or cash and non-cash compensation. Instead, the members of the Compensation Committee exercise their judgment to establish a total compensation package for each executive officer that is a mix of fixed and variable compensation, and cash and non-cash compensation, which the Compensation Committee believes is appropriate to achieve the goals of our executive compensation program and our corporate objectives. Historically, the Compensation Committee has structured a significant portion of our executive officers' target total direct compensation so that it is comprised of long-term incentive compensation in the form of equity awards to align our executive officers' incentives with the interests of our stockholders and our long-term corporate goals.

Governance of Executive Compensation Program

Role of the Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee discharges the responsibilities of our Board relating to the compensation of our named executive officers and the non-employee members of our Board. The Compensation Committee has overall responsibility for reviewing our compensation philosophy and strategy, overseeing our compensation and benefits policies generally, and overseeing and evaluating the compensation plans, policies, and practices applicable to our CEO as well as our other executive officers. The Compensation Committee operates pursuant to a written charter, which is available in the Governance section of our corporate website at investors.stitchfix.com.

Annual Compensation Review

At the beginning of each fiscal year, the Compensation Committee reviews our executive compensation program to assess whether the various elements of our program, as well as its compensation actions and decisions:

•are properly coordinated;

•are aligned with our vision, mission, values, corporate goals, and business strategy;

•provide appropriate short- and long-term incentives for our executive officers;

•drive behaviors that balance Company, employee, and stockholder interests;

•are competitive with the compensation of executives in comparable positions at the companies with which we compete for executive talent; and

•provide retentive value to our executive officers, while managing costs and our share pool responsibly.

Following this assessment, the Compensation Committee makes any necessary or appropriate modifications to our existing plans and arrangements or adopts new plans or arrangements.

Compensation-Setting Process

In connection with its annual review of our executive compensation program, the Compensation Committee evaluates and establishes the target total direct compensation opportunity for each of our named executive officers. The Compensation Committee does not use a single method or measure in setting or approving the target total direct compensation opportunities or each individual compensation element for our executive officers and does not benchmark any of these elements or target total direct compensation.

The following factors, which the Compensation Committee considers when selecting and setting the amount of each compensation element for our named executive officers, provide a framework for its compensation decision-making:

•our executive compensation program objectives;

•our performance against the financial and operational goals and objectives established by the Compensation Committee and our Board;

•each individual executive officer's qualifications, knowledge, skills, experience, and tenure relative to other similarly situated executives at the companies in our compensation peer group or selected broad-based compensation surveys;

•the scope of each executive officer's role and responsibilities compared to other similarly situated executives at the companies in our compensation peer group or selected broad-based compensation surveys;

•the prior performance of each individual executive officer, based on a subjective assessment of his or her contributions to our overall performance, ability to lead his or her business unit or function, and work as part of a team;

•the potential of each individual executive officer to contribute to our long-term financial, operational, and strategic objectives;

•our CEO's compensation relative to that of our other executive officers and compensation parity among our executive officers;

•our financial performance;

•the compensation practices of our compensation peer group and the positioning of each executive officer's compensation based on an analysis of competitive market data;

•in the case of long-term incentive compensation, the value of any outstanding vested and unvested equity awards held by each of our executive officers, including the equity awards and other long-term incentive compensation opportunities granted to each executive officer in prior fiscal years; and

•the recommendations of our CEO with regard to the compensation of our other executive officers, as described below.

No single factor is determinative in setting compensation levels, nor is the impact of any individual factor on the determination of compensation levels quantifiable. The Compensation Committee does not weight these factors in any predetermined manner, nor does it apply any formulas in making its compensation decisions. In making these decisions, the members of the Compensation Committee consider all of this information in light of their individual experience, knowledge of the Company, the competitive market, and each executive officer, and business judgment.

Role of Chief Executive Officer

In discharging its responsibilities, the Compensation Committee works with members of our management team, including our CEO. Our management team assists the Compensation Committee by providing information on corporate and individual performance, market compensation data, and management's perspective on compensation matters. The Compensation Committee solicits and reviews our CEO's recommendations and proposals with respect to adjustments to annual cash compensation, long-term incentive compensation opportunities, program structures, and other compensation-related matters for our executive officers (other than with respect to his own compensation).

The Compensation Committee reviews and discusses these recommendations and proposals with our CEO and considers them as one factor in determining the compensation for our executive officers other than our CEO. No executive officer is present during the discussion of or decision regarding their own compensation.

Role of Compensation Consultant

Pursuant to its charter, the Compensation Committee has the authority to retain the services of one or more executive compensation advisors, as it determines in its sole discretion, including compensation consultants and legal, accounting, and other advisors, to assist in the design of our compensation plans and arrangements and related policies and practices. The Compensation Committee makes all determinations regarding the engagement, fees, and services of these external advisors, and any such external advisor reports directly to the Compensation Committee.

The Compensation Committee uses an external compensation consultant to assist it by providing information, analysis, and other advice relating to our executive compensation program and the decisions resulting from its annual executive compensation review. For fiscal year 2024, the Compensation Committee engaged Compensia, Inc. ("Compensia"), a national compensation consulting firm, as

its compensation consultant to advise it on executive compensation matters, including competitive market pay practices for our executive officers, and data analysis and selection of the compensation peer group. For fiscal year 2024, the scope of Compensia's engagement included research, analysis, and support relating to:

•the levels of overall compensation and each element of compensation for our executive officers;

•the levels of overall compensation and each element of compensation for the non-employee members of our Board;

•reviewing and providing input on the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of our Proxy Statement;

•the review and updating of our compensation peer group;

•compensation "best practices" and market trends for our executive officers and the non-employee members of our Board;

•equity utilization and funding;

•a risk assessment of our executive compensation programs; and

•other ad hoc matters throughout the year.

The terms of Compensia's engagement include reporting directly to the Compensation Committee and its chair. Compensia also coordinates with our management for data collection and job matching for our executive officers. In fiscal year 2024, Compensia did not provide any other services to us. The Compensation Committee has evaluated Compensia's independence pursuant to the Nasdaq listing standards and the relevant SEC rules and has determined that no conflict of interest has arisen as a result of the work performed by Compensia for the Compensation Committee.

Competitive Positioning

For purposes of comparing our executive compensation against the competitive market, the Compensation Committee reviews and considers the compensation levels and practices of a group of peer companies. This compensation peer group is made up of online retail and e-commerce companies that are similar to us in terms of revenue and market capitalization. The Compensation Committee reviews our compensation peer group at least annually and adjusts the composition of the peer group if warranted, taking into account changes in both our business and that of the companies in the peer group.

In developing the compensation peer group in June 2023 to serve as a reference point for our fiscal year 2024 executive compensation decisions, the following criteria were used to identify comparable companies:

•publicly traded companies headquartered in the United States;

•similar industry and competitive market for talent;

•similar revenue size - within a range of approximately 0.25 to 4.0 times our last four quarters' revenue; and

•similar market capitalization - within a range of approximately 0.25 to 5.0 times our market capitalization.

In evaluating the existing compensation peer group based on the criteria described above, the Compensation Committee removed Poshmark and Zendesk due to their acquisition, 2U because it is not in a similar industry, Wayfair because its revenue and market capitalization levels were below our desired range, and Bumble, Box, Dropbox, Etsy, Levi Strauss & Co., Pinterest, RH, Shutterstock, Tripadvisor and Zillow Group because they each had a market capitalization level above our desired range. The Compensation Committee added Abercrombie & Fitch Co., Chegg, Chico's FAS, Designer Brands, Genesco, G-III Apparel Group, Guess?, Lands' End, Rent the Runway, The Children's Place, Torrid Holdings, and Urban Outfitters to the compensation peer group based on the criteria described above.

Following a review that included input from Compensia, the Compensation Committee approved the following compensation peer group to be used during fiscal year 2024 as a reference for understanding the competitive market for executive positions in our industry and sector:


Abercrombie & Fitch Co.	Go Pro	The RealReal
Chegg	Guess?	ThreadUp
Chico's FAS	Lands' End	Torrid Holdings
ContextLogic	Peloton Interactive	Urban Outfitters
Designer Brands	Rent the Runway	Warby Parker
Genesco	Revolve Group	Yelp
G-III Apparel Group	The Children's Place

Competitive comparison data was collected from publicly available information contained in the SEC filings of the compensation peer group companies, as well as data from customized subsets of the Radford Global Technology survey, which included 10 of the 20 companies in the compensation peer group and software companies with revenues ranging from $500 million to $5 billion as a

reference, to evaluate the competitive market when determining the total direct compensation packages for our executive officers, including base salary, annual cash bonus opportunities, and long-term incentive compensation opportunities. These surveys provide compensation market intelligence and are widely used within the technology industry.

The competitive market data described above are not used by the Compensation Committee in isolation, but serve as one point of reference in its deliberations on executive compensation. The Compensation Committee uses the competitive market data as a guide when making decisions about target total direct compensation opportunities, as well as individual elements of compensation. However, while market competitiveness is important, it is not the only factor the Compensation Committee considers when establishing compensation opportunities of our executive officers.

Individual Compensation Elements

Our executive compensation program consists of three principal elements: base salary, an annual cash bonus opportunity, and long-term incentive compensation in the form of equity awards. Our executive officers also participate in several Company-wide health and welfare benefit plans, which are consistent with the arrangements offered to our other employees. Finally, our executive officers are eligible to receive certain post-employment compensation arrangements.

We use these compensation elements to make up our executive compensation program because:

•they are consistent with other programs in our competitive market and allow us to effectively compete for highly qualified talent;

•each element supports achievement of one or more of our compensation objectives; and

•collectively, we believe these elements are effective means for motivating our executive officers.

We view these primary compensation elements as related, but distinct, components of our total compensation program. We do not believe that total compensation should be derived from a single element, but should be balanced in support of our overall compensation philosophy. Each of these compensation elements is discussed in detail below, including a description of the particular element and how it fits into our overall executive compensation program, and a discussion of the amounts paid to our named executive officers in fiscal year 2024 under each of these elements.

Base Salary

Base salary represents the fixed portion of the compensation of our named executive officers and is an important element of compensation intended to attract and retain highly talented individuals.

The Compensation Committee reviews and determines adjustments to the base salaries for each of our named executive officers as part of its annual executive compensation review. In addition, the base salaries of our named executive officers may be adjusted by the Compensation Committee in the event of a promotion or significant change in responsibilities.

The Compensation Committee generally determines base salaries after considering the factors described in "Governance of Executive Compensation Program - Compensation-Setting Process" above. Although our general philosophy is to set base salaries within a competitive range of the market median, actual positioning is based on the Compensation Committee's assessment of the factors described above. For fiscal year2024, the Compensation Committee determined not to change the annual base salaries of named executive officers from their fiscal year2023levels as part of its annual review of our executive compensation program.

The base salaries of our named executive officers for fiscal years 2023 and 2024 were as follows:


Named Executive Officer	Fiscal Year 2023 Base Salary ($)	Fiscal Year 2024 Base Salary ($)	Percentage Adjustment
Mr. Baer	850,000	850,000	0%
Mr. Aufderhaar	550,000	550,000	0%
Mr. O'Connor	500,000	500,000	0%
Mr. Bacos	-	600,000	n/a

The actual salaries paid to our named executive officers in fiscal year 2024 are set forth in the "Fiscal Year 2024 Summary Compensation Table" below.

Annual Cash Bonuses for Executives

We established an annual cash bonus program for our executive officers in fiscal year 2024, which was intended to provide incentive to participants to achieve annual financial and strategic performance objectives set by the Compensation Committee and our Board, with no individual performance component. For fiscal year 2024, our Compensation Committee determined that we achieved those annual financial and strategic objectives at 63.3% of their target performance level.

Target Annual Cash Bonus Opportunities

The Compensation Committee reviews the target annual cash bonus opportunity for the fiscal year (expressed as a percentage of annual base salary, prorated for any salary adjustments during the year) of each executive officer as part of its annual executive compensation review and makes adjustments after considering the factors described in "Governance of Executive Compensation Program - Compensation-Setting Process" above. Generally, the Compensation Committee seeks to set target annual cash bonus opportunities so that target total cash compensation (the sum of annual base salary and annual cash bonus) is within a competitive range taking into consideration our compensation peer group, but does not target a specific percentile of our compensation peer group.For fiscal year 2024, the target annual cash bonus opportunity for each of our named executive officers other than Mr. Baer was 50% of annual base salary. The target annual cash bonus opportunity for Mr. Baer was 100% of his base salary in fiscal year 2024.

Corporate Performance Objectives

In October 2023, the Compensation Committee established target levels for the annual cash bonus program for fiscal year 2024 based on two financial performance metrics, net revenue and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA"), and one strategic performance metric, active clients. Active clients is defined as a client who checked out a Fix or was shipped an item using Freestyle in the preceding 52 weeks, measured as of the last day of that period ("Active Client"). The Compensation Committee selected Active Clients because management believes Active Clients is a key indicator of our growth and the overall health of our business. The Compensation Committee chose Adjusted EBITDA and revenue because it believes these metrics balance the top and bottom lines of our business.

The Compensation Committee weighted each of revenue and Adjusted EBITDA at 40% of each of our executive officers' and other members of management's target annual cash bonus opportunity and weighted Active Clients as 20% of each of our executive officers' and other members of management's target annual cash bonus opportunity. The Compensation Committee approved potential payout levels of 75% (threshold), 100% (target), 125% (stretch) and 175% (maximum) as a retention and motivation mechanism for our executive officers and other members of management.

In September 2024, the Compensation Committee reviewed our actual performance to determine achievement of the corporate performance metrics under the annual cash bonus program. Based on the Company's performance against the metrics, the Compensation Committee determined that the total bonus multiplier was equal to 63.3% of each executive officer and other members of management's target annual bonus opportunity.

The following table shows the required levels of achievement for the performance metrics to reach threshold, target, stretch and maximum payout levels, as well as the actual results as determined by the Compensation Committee:


Financial Performance Metric	Weighting (% of total annual cash bonus opportunity)	Threshold(1)	Target(1)	Stretch(1)	Maximum(1)	Actual(1)	Payout Percentage
Net Revenue	40.0%	$1,351	$1,376	$1,401	$1,451	$1,337.0	0%
Adjusted EBITDA(2)	40.0%	$22	$26	$30	$45	$29.3	120.7%
Active Clients	20.0%	2,508	2,583	2,658	2,808	2,508	75.0%
Total Earned	63.3%

(1)In millions, except for Active Clients, which is in thousands.

(2)Refer to Appendix A to this proxy statement for a reconciliation of net loss, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, to Adjusted EBITDA for actual fiscal year 2024 amounts.

The actual annual cash bonus amounts paid to our named executive officers for fiscal year 2024 are set forth in the "Fiscal Year 2024 Summary Compensation Table" below.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation

We view long-term incentive compensation in the form of equity awards as a critical element of our executive compensation program. The realized value of these equity awards bears a direct relationship to our stock price and, therefore, these awards are an incentive for our named executive officers to create sustainable, long-term value for our stockholders. Equity awards also help us retain our executive officers in a highly competitive market.

Long-term incentive compensation opportunities in the form of equity awards are granted by the Compensation Committee. The amount and forms of such equity awards are determined by the Compensation Committee after considering the factors described in "Governance of Executive Compensation Program - Compensation-Setting Process" above. The amounts of the equity awards are also intended to provide competitively sized awards and target total direct compensation opportunities within a competitive range relative to our compensation peer group and customized subsets of the Radford Global Technology survey, which included 10 of the

20 companies in the compensation peer group and software companies with revenues ranging from $500 million to $5 billion for similar roles and positions for each of our executive officers, taking into consideration the factors described above.

In connection with Mr. Bacos's hiring as our CTO, the Compensation Committee granted Mr. Bacos two equity awards. The first equity award was granted in December 2023 and consisted of an RSU award with a grant date fair value of $1,250,000 and a stock option award with a grant date fair value of $1,250,000. The second award was granted in April 2024 and consisted of an RSU award with a grant date fair value of $1,250,000 and a stock option award with a grant date fair value of $1,250,000. These equity grants vested as to 25% of the options and shares subject to such awards on the Company's first quarterly vesting date that was six months following Mr. Bacos's employment start date. The remaining options and shares subject to these awards vest as follows: 25% of the options and shares in equal quarterly installments over the next two quarterly vesting dates; 33 1/3% of the options and shares in equal quarterly installments over the next four quarterly vesting dates; and 16 2/3% of the options and shares in equal quarterly installments over the next four quarterly vesting dates.

In October 2023, the Compensation Committee reviewed the outstanding equity awards held by Mr. O'Connor and determined to award him an annual equity grant on December 8, 2023 consisting of an RSU award with a grant date fair value of $720,000 and a stock option award with a grant date fair value of $720,000. One-twelfth of the shares subject to the options and RSUs vested on March 13, 2024, and the remainder will vest 1/12th on each of the next subsequent quarterly vesting dates.

Mr. Baer and Mr. Aufderhaar did not receive any long-term incentive compensation opportunities in the form of equity awards in fiscal year 2024. However, each of Messrs. Baer, Aufderhaar, and O'Connor received the grant of a fully-vested RSU award in October 2023 to satisfy the amount that they earned for fiscal year 2023 performance under the Company's annual cash bonus plan.

Health and Welfare Benefits

Our named executive officers are eligible to receive the same employee benefits that are generally available to all our full-time employees, subject to the satisfaction of certain eligibility requirements. These health and welfare benefits include medical and dental benefits, life insurance benefits, and short- and long-term disability insurance.

In addition, we maintain a 401(k) Plan that provides eligible U.S. employees with an opportunity to save for retirement on a tax-advantaged basis. Eligible employees are able to defer eligible compensation up to certain limits as set forth in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), which are updated annually. Pre-tax contributions are allocated to each participant's individual account and are then invested in selected investment alternatives according to the participant's directions. All participant interests in their contributions are fully vested when contributed. We have the ability to make matching and discretionary contributions to the 401(k) Plan and made matching contributions in fiscal year 2024. The 401(k) Plan is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code, with the related trust intended to be tax exempt under Section 501(a) of the Code. As a tax-qualified retirement plan, contributions to the 401(k) Plan are deductible by us when made, and contributions and earnings on those amounts are not generally taxable to the employees until withdrawn or distributed from the 401(k) Plan.

In structuring these benefit programs, we seek to provide an aggregate level of benefits that are comparable to those provided by similarly situated companies.

Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits

We do not view perquisites or other personal benefits as a significant component of our executive compensation program. Accordingly, we do not provide perquisites or other personal benefits to our named executive officers except as generally made available to all our employees, or in situations where we believe it is appropriate to assist an individual in the performance of his or her duties, to make our executive officers more efficient and effective, and for recruitment and retention purposes.

Employment Arrangements

While we do not have employment agreements with any of our executive officers, the initial terms and conditions of employment for our named executive officers are set forth in written employment offer letters. In June 2023, we entered into an employment offer letter with Mr. Baer setting forth the terms and conditions of his employment as our CEO and we entered into a modified employment offer letter with Mr. Baer on June 14, 2024, to adjust his work location. In November 2022, we entered into an employment offer letter with Mr. O'Connor setting forth the terms and conditions of his employment as CLO. In March 2023, we entered into an employment offer letter with Mr. Aufderhaar setting forth the terms and conditions of his employment as CFO. In October 2023, we entered into an employment offer letter with Mr. Bacos setting forth the terms and conditions of his employment as CTO. For a summary of the material terms and conditions of employment offer letters, see "Employment Agreements" below.

Each of these employment offer letters provides for "at will" employment and sets forth the named executive officer's initial base salary and target annual bonus opportunity. These employment offer letters also contain provisions for certain payments and benefits in the event of certain qualifying terminations of employment, including a termination of employment following a change in control of the Company, as described in more detail in "Post-Employment Compensation Arrangements" below. Each of these arrangements was approved on our behalf by the Compensation Committee.

Appointment of Chief Product & Technology Officer

In connection with his appointment as our CTO, we entered into an employment offer letter dated October 20, 2023 (the "Bacos Employment Offer Letter") with Mr. Bacos. Pursuant to the Bacos Employment Offer Letter, our initial compensation arrangements with Mr. Bacos were as follows:

•an initial annual base salary of $600,000;

•a target annual cash bonus opportunity equal to 50% of his annual base salary;

•an RSU award with a grant date fair value of $1,250,000, 25% of the shares subject to the award which vested on the Company's first quarterly vesting date that was six months following Mr. Bacos's employment start date. The remaining shares subject to the award vest as follows: 25% in equal quarterly installments over the next two quarterly vesting dates; 33 1/3% in equal quarterly installments over the next four quarterly vesting dates; and 16 2/3% of the shares in equal quarterly installments over the next four quarterly vesting dates; and

•an option award to purchase shares of our Class A common stock with a grant date fair value of $1,250,000, 25% of which vested on Company's first quarterly vesting date that was six months following Mr. Bacos's employment start date. The remaining options vest as follows: 25% in equal quarterly installments over the next two quarterly vesting dates; 33 1/3% in equal quarterly installments over the next four quarterly vesting dates; and 16 2/3% in equal quarterly installments over the next four quarterly vesting dates.

The equity awards granted to Mr. Bacos were granted under the Stitch Fix, Inc. Amended and Restated 2019 Inducement Plan (the "2019 Plan"), which was adopted by our Board under an exception to the Nasdaq Listing Rules' stockholder approval requirement for the issuance of securities with regard to grants to employees of the Company or its subsidiaries as an inducement material to such individuals entering into employment with the Company or its subsidiaries.

The Bacos Employment Offer Letter also contains provisions for certain payments and benefits in the event of a qualifying termination of employment, including a termination of employment following a change in control of the Company, as described in more detail in "Post-Employment Compensation Arrangements" below.

The Bacos Employment Offer Letter was negotiated on our behalf by Mr. Baer and was approved by the Compensation Committee. In establishing his initial compensation arrangements, we took into consideration Mr. Bacos's skills and experience and the competitive market for chief technology officer positions at other comparable companies based on a review of compensation survey data. For a summary of the material terms and conditions of the Bacos Employment Offer Letter, see "Employment Agreements" below.

Post-Employment Compensation Arrangements

We believe that having in place reasonable and competitive post-employment compensation arrangements are essential to attracting and retaining highly qualified executive officers. These arrangements are designed to provide reasonable compensation to executive officers who leave our employ under certain circumstances to facilitate their transition to new employment. Further, in some instances we seek to mitigate any potential employer liability and avoid future disputes or litigation by requiring a departing executive officer to sign a separation and release agreement acceptable to us as a condition to receiving post-employment compensation payments or benefits.

Each of our named executive officers who is currently at the Company is eligible to receive certain payments and benefits in the event of certain qualifying terminations of employment pursuant to their employment offer letters. These agreements provide for the payment of six months' base salary and COBRA premium reimbursement in the cases of Messrs. Aufderhaar, Bacos and O'Connor and 12 months in the case of Mr. Baer, in the event that their employment is terminated by us without "cause" or by the executive officer for "good reason" (each as defined in his employment offer letter). In addition, if such termination of employment occurs during the period beginning one month prior to a change in control of the Company (as defined in our 2017 Incentive Plan (the "2017 Plan")) or within 12 months following a change in control of the Company, Messrs. Aufderhaar, Bacos, and O'Connor will instead receive the payment of 12 months' base salary and COBRA premium reimbursement and Mr. Baer will receive 18 months' base salary, 100% of his target annual bonus opportunity then in effect, and 18 months COBRA premium reimbursement. Each named executive officer will also receive full vesting of all outstanding and unvested equity awards. The receipt of payments and benefits is contingent on the named executive officer's execution of a release of claims in favor of the Company.

The Compensation Committee does not consider the specific amounts payable under these post-employment compensation arrangements when establishing annual compensation. We do believe, however, that these arrangements are necessary to offer compensation packages that are competitive.

We believe that these arrangements are designed to align the interests of our named executive officers and our stockholders when considering our long-term future. The primary purpose of these arrangements is to keep our most senior executive officers focused on pursuing corporate transaction activity that is in the best interests of our stockholders regardless of whether those transactions may result in their own job loss. Reasonable post-acquisition payments and benefits should serve the interests of both the named executive officer and our stockholders.

All payments, benefits, and acceleration of vesting of outstanding equity awards in the event of a change in control of the Company are payable only if there is a subsequent loss of employment by a named executive officer or the refusal of an acquirer to assume or substitute a comparable award for an outstanding equity award (a "double-trigger" arrangement). In the case of the acceleration of vesting of outstanding equity awards, we use this double-trigger arrangement to protect against the loss of retention value following a change in control of the Company and to avoid windfalls, both of which could occur if vesting of either equity or cash-based awards accelerated automatically as a result of the transaction.

We have not had excise tax reimbursement or gross-up provisions relating to a change in control of the Company in our employment letters and have no such reimbursement or gross-up obligations in place with respect to any of our named executive officers.

For detailed descriptions of the post-employment compensation arrangements that we maintain with our named executive officers, as well as an estimate of the potential payments and benefits payable under these arrangements, see "Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control" below.

Stock Ownership Policy

We believe that stock ownership by our executive officers and the non-employee members of our Board is important to link the risks and rewards inherent in stock ownership of these individuals and our stockholders. Our Board has adopted formal stock ownership guidelines that require our executive officers and the non-employee members of our Board to own a minimum number of shares of our Class A or Class B common stock. These mandatory ownership levels are intended to create a clear standard that ties a portion of these individuals' economic interests to the performance of our stock price. Compliance is evaluated on an annual basis on the last day of the fiscal year.

The current required ownership levels are as follows:


Individual Subject to Ownership Guidelines	Minimum Required Level of Stock Ownership
Chief Executive Officer	Lesser of five times base salary or 215,000 shares
Other Executive Officers	Lesser of two times base salary or 43,000 shares
Non-Employee Members of our Board	Lesser of four times annual retainer or 13,000 shares

The applicable guideline must be achieved by each covered individual within five years after the later of (a) November 16, 2017, and (b) the date the individual became a covered individual. To date, each individual is either in compliance with the guidelines or is within the five year compliance period.

Hedging and Pledging Activities

Under our Insider Trading Policy, our employees, including our executive officers, and the members of our Board are prohibited from hedging or pledging our equity securities, engaging in short selling of our securities, trading in derivative securities of the Company, holding our securities in a margin account, or otherwise pledging them as collateral for a loan.

Clawback Policy

We have adopted a clawback policy in accordance with SEC and Nasdaq listing requirements that states that, in the event the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement, the Company will recover incentive-based compensation received by any current or former executive officer that was based upon the attainment of a financial reporting measure that was erroneously awarded during the three-year period preceding the date the restatement was required.

The Company has adopted an Insider Trading Policy governing the purchase, sale, and/or other disposition of its securities by its directors, officers and employees, as well as by the Company itself. We believe these policies and procedures are reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules, regulations and exchange listing standards applicable to the Company. The policy prohibits our directors, officers, employees, and certain other covered persons from trading in Company securities and related derivative securities while aware of material non-public information about the Company or its securities. Additionally, all employees and directors are prohibited from trading securities during various periods throughout the year in connection with the public release of our quarterly results, and certain individuals must receive pre-clearance from our Legal Department prior to engaging in any transaction in the Company's securities. More information regarding our Insider Trading Policy can be found in Exhibit 19.1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 3, 2024.

Equity Award Grant Policies and Practices

It is not the Compensation Committee's practice to time or otherwise coordinate the granting of any equity awards to our non-employee directors or named executive officers with any release of material nonpublic information. It is the practice of our Compensation Committee to review the Company's results and our named executive officers' performance following the end of a fiscal year, as well as the outstanding equity awards held by our named executive officers, and, based on those reviews, to grant stock options to our named executive officers. The grant date for those equity awards is generally consistent with the date on which our

trading window opens following the release of our first quarter results following the disclosure of material nonpublic information. Additionally, our Compensation Committee approves the granting of equity awards in connection with the commencement of employment of our named executive officers, and from time to time as determined appropriate by our Compensation Committee. Our eligible non-employee directors are granted stock options as of the date of each annual meeting of our stockholders in accordance with our director compensation policy.

Tax and Accounting Considerations

Deductibility of Executive Compensation

In approving the amount and form of compensation for our named executive officers, the Compensation Committee considers all elements of our cost of providing such compensation, including the potential impact of Section 162(m) of the Code ("Section 162(m)"). Under Section 162(m), compensation paid to each of the Company's "covered employees" that exceeds $1 million per taxable year is generally non-deductible. Although the Compensation Committee will continue to consider tax implications as one factor in determining executive compensation, the Compensation Committee also looks at other factors in making its decisions and retains the flexibility to provide compensation for our named executive officers in a manner consistent with the goals of our executive compensation program and the best interests of the Company and our stockholders, which may include providing for compensation that is not deductible by the Company due to the deduction limit under Section 162(m).

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

We follow the Financial Accounting Standard Board's Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 ("ASC Topic 718") for our stock-based compensation awards. ASC Topic 718 requires us to measure the compensation expense for all stock-based payment awards made to our employees and non-employee members of our Board,including options to purchase shares of our Class A and Class B common stock and RSU awards that may be settled for shares of our Class A and Class B common stock, generally based on the grant date "fair value" of these awards. This calculation is performed for accounting purposes and reported in the executive compensation tables required by the federal securities laws, even though the recipient of the awards may never realize any value from their awards.

Compensation Committee Report

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed with management the Compensation Discussion and Analysis contained in this Proxy Statement. Based on this review and discussion, the Compensation Committee has recommended to our Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement and incorporated into the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 3, 2024.

THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE

Ms. Elizabeth Williams (Chair)

Mr. Kofi Amoo-Gottfried

Compensation-Related Risk

The Compensation Committee has reviewed our compensation policies and practices, in consultation with its external compensation consultant, to assess whether they encourage our employees to take inappropriate risks. After reviewing and assessing our compensation philosophy, policies, and practices, including the mix of fixed and variable, short- and long-term compensation, and overall pay, incentive plan structures, and the checks and balances built into, and oversight of, each policy and practice, the Compensation Committee has determined that any risks arising from our compensation policies and practices for our employees are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company as a whole.

The Compensation Committee believes that the mix and design of the elements of executive compensation do not encourage management to assume excessive risks; the mix of fixed and variable compensation prevents undue focus on short-term results and helps align the interests of our executive officers with the interests of our stockholders. In addition, under our Insider Trading Policy, our executive officers are prohibited from hedging and pledging our equity securities, which protects against short-term decision making.

•full accelerated vesting of any and all outstanding and unvested equity awards held by her or him, except to the extent the award agreement for any such equity award contains an explicit provision to the contrary.

If any payment or benefit that a named executive officer may receive from us or otherwise would constitute a "parachute payment" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then such payment or benefit will be reduced to an amount that is either (i) the largest portion of the payment that would result in no portion of the payment being subject to such excise tax or (ii) the largest portion, up to and including the total, of the payment, whichever amount, after taking into account all applicable federal, state, and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the excise tax results in her or his receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater economic benefit notwithstanding that all or some portion of the payment may be subject to the excise tax.

The following table presents the estimated payments and benefits that would be received by each of our named executive officers under the arrangements described above, assuming that a termination of employment and, where applicable, a change in control of the Company had occurred on August 3, 2024, the last day of fiscal year 2024, and that the price of our Class A common stock was $4.09 per share, which represents the closing market price of our Class A common stock on August 2, 2024, the last trading day of fiscal year 2024. This table is intended only for illustrative purposes; the rights and benefits due to any named executive officer upon an actual termination of employment or change in control of the Company can only be determined at the time of such event, based on circumstances then existing and arrangements then in effect.

(2)The amounts reported for "Health Care Coverage" represent the Company's monthly cost of medical, dental, and vision insurance coverage multiplied by the number of months of coverage that would be provided to each named executive officer.

(3)The amounts reported for "Equity Acceleration - Options" represents the number of shares of our Class A and/or Class B common stock subject to unvested and unexercised options to purchase shares of our Class A or Class B common stock outstanding as of the last day of the last completed fiscal year multiplied by $4.09 per share, which represents the closing market price of our Class A common stock on August 2, 2024, the last trading day of fiscal year 2024, less the exercise price.

(4)The amounts reported for "Equity Acceleration - RSUs" represents the number of unvested RSUs as of the last day of the last completed fiscal year multiplied by $4.09 per share, which represents the closing market price of our Class A common stock on August 2, 2024, the last trading day of fiscal year 2024.

In addition to the payments and benefits described and quantified above, the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2011 Plan"), the 2017 Plan, and the 2019 Plan provide for an extended period of time during which an optionholder may exercise options following the optionholder's termination of service (the "post-termination exercise period"). Generally, under the 2011 Plan, the 2017 Plan, and the 2019 Plan, if an optionholder's service relationship with us ends, the optionholder may exercise any vested options for up to three months after the date that the service relationship ends. However, if the optionholder's service relationship with us ceases due to disability or death, the optionholder, or his or her beneficiary, may exercise any vested options for up to 12 months in the event of disability, or 18 months in the event of death, after the date the service relationship ends. Accordingly, each of our named executive officers would be entitled to an extended post-termination exercise period in the event of a termination of employment due to death or disability.

CEO Pay Ratio

Under SEC rules, we are required to calculate and disclose the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, the median of the annual total compensation of all our employees (other than our Chief Executive Officer), and the ratio of the annual total compensation of our median employee as compared to the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer.

We believe there has been no change to our employee population and compensation arrangements that we believe would result in a significant change to our pay ratio disclosure and therefore we are using the median employee that we identified for fiscal year 2023 as our median employee for fiscal year 2024.

To identify our median employee, we used the following methodology:

•To determine our total population of employees, we included all full-time and part-time U.S. employees asof July 31, 2023, excluding our CEO.

•As the pay ratio disclosure rules provide an exemption for companies to exclude non-U.S. employees from the median employee calculation if non-U.S. employees in one or more identified jurisdictions account for 5% or less of the company's total number of employees, we excluded 238 employees in the United Kingdom, who comprised approximately 4% of our total employee population of 5,860 employees on July 31, 2023. After taking into account this exemption, 5,622 U.S. employees were considered for identifying the median employee.

•Toidentify our median employee from our U.S. employee population (other than our CEO), we calculated the aggregate amount of cash compensation received by and stock-based compensation granted (as computed in accordance with ASC Topic 718) in fiscal year 2023, excluding non-regular payments.

•We annualized the base compensation of employees who were employed by us for less than the entire fiscal year.

Using this approach, we identified our median employee. Our median employee in fiscal year 2023 was a remote Senior Stylist.

For fiscal year 2024, the annual total compensation for our median employee was$38,021 as computed under the Summary Compensation table rules and the total compensation of Mr. Baer, as reported in the Fiscal Year 2024 Summary Compensation Table included in this Proxy Statement, was $1,464,928.Based on this information, the ratio of our Chief Executive Officer's annual total compensation to the annual total compensation of the median employee was 39:1.This ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules.

Because SEC rules for identifying the median employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee's annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, apply certain exclusions, and make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee population and compensation practices, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to our pay ratio, as other companies have different employee populations and compensation practices and may have used different methodologies, exclusions, estimates, and assumptions in calculating their pay ratios. As explained by the SEC when it adopted these rules, the rule was not designed to facilitate comparisons of pay ratios among different companies, even companies within the same industry, but rather to allow stockholders to better understand and assess each particular company's compensation practices and pay ratio disclosures.

Pay versus Performance

The table below shows compensation actually paid, as defined by the SEC in Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K ("Item 402(v)"), for our executives, and our financial performance for the fiscal years ended August 3, 2024, July 29, 2023, July 30, 2022, and July 31, 2021. For purposes of this discussion, our CEO is also referred to as our principal executive officer or "PEO" and our other named executive officers are referred to as our "Non-PEO NEOs":

(2)Amounts reflect total compensation as reported in our Summary Compensation Table ("SCT") for our NEOs for each applicable fiscal year.

(3)Compensation Actually Paid ("CAP") has been calculated based on the requirements and methodology set forth in the applicable SEC rules (Item 402(v)). The CAP calculation includes the end-of-year value of awards granted within the fiscal year, the change in fair value from prior year end of vested awards and the change in the fair value of unvested awards granted in prior years, regardless of if, when, or at which intrinsic value they will actually vest. To calculate CAP for fiscal year 2024 the following amounts were deducted from and added to the total compensation number shown in the SCT:


Fiscal Year 2024 (For PEO 3) ($)	Fiscal Year 2024 (Average for Non-PEO NEOs) ($)

The reconciliation calculations for the other covered fiscal years may be found in the Company's proxy statement for the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders.
For purposes of the above adjustments, the fair values of equity awards on the applicable date were determined in accordance with ASC Topic 718, using valuation methodologies that are generally consistent with those used to determine the grant date fair value for accounting purposes. The assumptions used in calculating such amounts are set forth in the notes to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2024 Annual Reporton Form 10-K.

The table below contains ranges of assumptions used in the valuation of outstanding equity awards for the relevant fiscal year(s). For more information, please see the notes to our financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and the footnotes to the Summary Compensation Table of this proxy statement.

(1)The weighted-average exercise price excludes RSU awards, which have no exercise price.

(2)Includes securities under the 2011 Plan and the 2017 Plan.

(3)Includes securities under the 2019 Plan.

The 2017 Plan provides that the number of shares reserved for issuance may be increased by our Board as of the first day of each fiscal year, starting in 2018 and ending in 2027, by a number of shares of Class A common stock that does not exceed 5% of the total number of shares of all classes of common stock outstanding on the last day of the preceding fiscal year. Effective as of August 4, 2024, the Board approved an increase to the shares reserved for issuance by 6,237,914 shares of Class A common stock (approximately 5% of the total number of shares of all classes of common stock outstanding on August 3, 2024) pursuant to this provision. This increase is not reflected in the table above.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

The Compensation Committee regularly reviews and assesses the compensation levels of our non-employee directors, with the assistance of its external compensation consultant. Our Board has adopted a director compensation policy for our non-employee directors who are not affiliated with our stockholders, who we refer to below as our "Independent Directors." Pursuant to this policy, which was last amended by our Board in January 2021, our Independent Directors receive the compensation described below.

Cash Compensation

•A $50,000 annual cash retainer for service as a Board member;

•$20,000 per year for service as chair of the Audit Committee and $10,000 per year for service as a member of the Audit Committee;

•$15,000 per year for service as chair of the Compensation Committee and $7,500 per year for service as a member of the Compensation Committee;

•$10,000 per year for service as chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and $5,000 per year for service as a member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee; and

•$10,000 per year for service as Lead Independent Director.

The annual cash compensation amounts are payable in equal quarterly installments following the end of each quarter in which the service occurred, pro-rated for any partial quarters. All annual cash fees are vested upon payment.

Equity Compensation

•A non-qualified option to purchase shares of our Class A common stock with an aggregate value of $112,500; and

•an RSU grant with an aggregate value of $112,500.

Equity grants are made as of the date of each annual meeting of our stockholders. Each such stock option and RSU grant will be made under our 2017 Plan and will vest on the earlier of the first anniversary of its date of grant and the date of the next annual meeting of stockholders, subject to the non-employee director's continuous service through the applicable vesting date.

In addition, any person who is elected or appointed as an Independent Director for the first time will, upon the date of her or his initial election or appointment, receive a non-qualified option to purchase shares of our Class A common stock with an aggregate value of $112,500 and an RSU grant with an aggregate value of $112,500, each multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days between the date of appointment and the date of the next then-scheduled annual meeting of stockholders (or, if the date of such annual meeting has not yet been scheduled, the first anniversary of the immediately preceding annual meeting), and the denominator of which is 365.

Any outstanding options to purchase shares of our Class A or Class B common stock held by each Independent Director who remains in continuous service with us until immediately prior to a change in control of the Company (as defined in our 2017 Plan) will become fully vested immediately prior to the closing of such change in control event in which their service is terminated.

Reimbursement of Expenses

We also reimburse each eligible non-employee director for ordinary, necessary, and reasonable out-of-pocket travel expenses to cover in-person attendance at and participation in meetings of our Board and any committee of the Board.

Fiscal Year 2024 Director Compensation Table

The following table shows for the fiscal year ended August 3, 2024, certain information with respect to the compensation of our non-employee directors. Mr. Baxter and Ms. Tan joined the Board on October 14, 2024 and therefore did not receive any director compensation for fiscal year 2024.

(1)The amounts reported in this column represent the aggregate grant date fair value of RSUs computed in accordance with ASC Topic 718. The assumptions used in calculating such amounts are set forth in the notes to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2024 Annual Report. In order to mitigate the impact of any short-term stock price volatility on the number of stock units granted, the number of stock units in an RSU award is based on the aggregate dollar value of the award divided by the average closing market price of our Class A common stock on Nasdaq for the 30 trading days immediately prior to the date of grant. As a result, the fair value of the awards at grant date in this column, computed in accordance with ASC Topic 718, may be lower or higher than the equity compensation value approved by the Board.

(2)The aggregate number of RSUs and stock options held by each non-employee director listed as of August 3, 2024, was as follows:


Name	RSUs (#)	Stock Options (#)
Steven Anderson	-	-
J. William Gurley	-	-
Neal Mohan	-	-
Sharon McCollam	32,051	64,102
Elizabeth Williams	32,051	64,102
Kofi Amoo-Gottfried	32,051	64,102

(3)The amounts reported in this column represent the aggregate grant date fair value of the options to purchase shares of our Class A common stock granted to our Independent Directors during fiscal year 2024 under our 2017 Plan, computed in accordance with ASC Topic 718. The assumptions used in calculating the grant date fair value of the stock options reported in this column are set forth in the notes to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2024 Annual Report. This amount does not reflect the actual economic value that may be realized by the non-employee directors from such awards.

(4)Pursuant to our Independent Director Compensation Policy, Mr. Gurley, and previously Mr. Anderson, both of whom are affiliated with certain of our stockholders, Mr. Baer, our CEO, and Ms. Lake, our Executive Chair, do not receive any compensation for their service as members of our Board.Ms. Lake received a total of $80,000 in cash compensation as an employee of the Company.

(5)Effective September 6, 2024, Mr. Anderson resigned from our Board.

(6)Effective December 15, 2023, Mr. Mohan resigned from our Board.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS AND INDEMNIFICATION

Certain Related-Person Transactions

The following is a summary of transactions since July 29, 2023, to which we have been a participant in which the amount involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000, and in which any of our directors, executive officers, or holders of more than 5% of our capital stock, or any member of the immediate family of the foregoing persons, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, other than compensation arrangements which are described in the section titled "Executive Compensation."

Employment of an Immediate Family Member

Chelsea Lake, the sister of Katrina Lake, our Founder, former Chief Executive Officer, and Executive Chairperson of our Board, is an employee on our Women's merchandising team. During fiscal year 2024, Chelsea Lake served principally as a Buying Director and had total cash compensation of $274,000 in fiscal year 2024, plus $10,960 in Company match pursuant to the 401(k) Plan available to all employees. Chelsea Lake's cash compensation was determined based on external market compensation data for similar positions and internal pay equity when compared to the compensation paid to employees with similar experience serving in similar positions who were not related to our Founder and Executive Chairperson of our Board. In October 2023, Chelsea Lake received an RSU grant covering 34,033 shares of Class A common stock, with an aggregate fair value of $103,120,which vested in four quarterly installments, beginning on December 13, 2023.Chelsea Lake has received and continues to be eligible for equity awards on the same general terms and conditions as applicable to employees in similar positions who are not related to our Founder and Executive Chairperson of our Board.

Indemnification

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation ("Certificate of Incorporation") contains provisions that limit the liability of our current and former directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides that directors of a corporation will not be personally liable for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for:

•any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders;

•any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

•unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions; or

•any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

Such limitation of liability does not apply to liabilities arising under federal securities laws and does not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission.

Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes us to indemnify our directors, officers, employees, and other agents to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Our Bylaws provide that we are required to indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law and may indemnify our other employees and agents. Our Bylaws also provide that, on satisfaction of certain conditions, we will advance expenses incurred by a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding, and permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee, or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in that capacity regardless of whether we would otherwise be permitted to indemnify him or her under the provisions of Delaware law. We have entered and expect to continue to enter into agreements to indemnify our directors, executive officers, and other employees as determined by the Board. With certain exceptions, these agreements provide for indemnification for related expenses including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, and settlement amounts incurred by any of these individuals in any action or proceeding. We believe that these Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaw provisions and indemnification agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers. We also maintain customary directors' and officers' liability insurance.

Related-Person Transactions Policy and Procedures

Our Related-Person Transactions Policy states that our executive officers, directors, nominees for election as a director, beneficial owners of more than 5% of any class of our common stock, and any members of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons are not permitted to enter into a related person transaction with us without the approval or ratification of our Audit Committee or other independent body of our Board. Any request for us to enter into a transaction with an executive officer, director, nominee for election as a director, beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of our common stock, or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons, in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and such person would have a direct or indirect interest, must be presented to our Audit Committee or other independent body of our Board for review, consideration, and approval. In approving or rejecting any such proposal, our Audit Committee or other independent body of our Board is to consider the relevant facts of the transaction, including the risks, costs, and benefits to us and whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances. All of the transactions described above were presented, considered, and approved or ratified by our Audit Committee or other independent body of our Board.

OTHER MATTERS

The Board knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the 2024 Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote on such matters in accordance with their best judgment.

APPENDIX A

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

We report our financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide users of our financial information with additional useful information in evaluating our performance. We believe that adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by investors and securities analysts in their evaluations of companies, and that this supplemental measure facilitates comparisons between companies. This non-GAAP financial measure may be different than similarly titled measures used by other companies.

There are several limitations related to the use of Adjusted EBITDA as compared to the net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Some of these limitations include:

•adjusted EBITDA excludes interest income and other (income) expense, net, as these items are not components of our core business;

•adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our provision (benefit) for income taxes, which may increase or decrease cash available to us;

•adjusted EBITDA excludes the recurring, non-cash expenses of depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and, although these are non-cash expenses, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future;

•adjusted EBITDA excludes the non-cash expense of stock-based compensation, which has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, an important part of how we attract and retain our employees and a significant recurring expense in our business;

•adjusted EBITDA excludes costs incurred related to discrete restructuring plans and other one-time costs that are fundamentally different in strategic nature and frequency from ongoing initiatives. We believe exclusion of these items facilitates a more consistent comparison of operating performance over time, however these costs do include cash outflows; and

Adjusted EBITDA

We define adjusted EBITDA as net loss excluding interest income, other income (expense), net, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, and restructuring and other one-time costs. The following table presents a reconciliation of net loss, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, to adjusted EBITDA for each of the periods presented:


For the Fiscal Year Ended
(in thousands)	August 3, 2024	July 29, 2023	July 30, 2022
Net loss from continuing operations	$	(118,885)	$	(150,336)	$	(181,605)
Add (deduct):
Interest income	(11,250)	(5,841)	(924)
Other (income) expense, net	(1,631)	25	394
Provision (benefit) for income taxes	(1,661)	871	(2,335)
Depreciation and amortization(1)	35,489	38,375	33,533
Stock-based compensation expense(2)	76,756	102,072	124,944
Restructuring and other one-time costs(3)	50,463	45,749	26,206
Adjusted EBITDA	$	29,281	$	30,915	$	213

(1)For fiscal 2024 and 2023, depreciation and amortization excluded $12.1 million and $2.8 million, respectively, reflected in "Restructuring and other one-time costs."

(2)For fiscal 2022, stock-based compensation expense excluded $1.1 million reflected in "Restructuring and other one-time costs."
(3)For fiscal 2024, restructuring charges were $43.8 million and other one-time costs were $6.7 million in one-time professional services fees. For fiscal 2023, restructuring charges were $39.9 million and other one-time costs were $5.8 million in retention bonuses for continuing employees. For fiscal 2022, restructuring charges were $17.7 million and other one-time costs were $8.5 million in retention bonuses for continuing employees.
