Polished.com Provides Corporate Updates

Polished.com Inc. (the “Company” or “Polished”) (NYSE American: POL) today provided the following corporate updates:

Update to Previously Issued Guidance for Fiscal Year 2023

The Company now expects net sales between $315 million and $325 million and EBITDA below its previously provided estimate for fiscal year 2023. The Company previously reported that it expected net sales between $330 million and $350 million and low single digit EBITDA margins for fiscal year 2023. The Company’s updated guidance reflects sustained pressure on the Company’s top line revenue as a result of macroeconomic headwinds continuing to significantly impact consumer discretionary spending.

These expectations are made as of February 12, 2024, and remain subject to substantial uncertainty. Results are unpredictable and may be materially affected by various factors such as the economy, inflation, interest rates, regional labor markets, supply chain constraints and other variables.

May 2022 Credit Agreement

The Company has received a Notice of Acceleration from its lenders asserting certain events of default relating to non-payment of certain principal and interest amounts and fees due and payable under the May 9, 2022 Credit Agreement on January 31, 2024. The Company is seeking to reach a resolution with the lenders and will pursue a defense to any potential enforcement action taken by the lenders. Additional information can be found on the Current Report on Form 8-K that the Company filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 12, 2024.
