“New customer revenue and conversion rates increased over the past two months, and we have seen our active subscriber base increase over the past month. Kidpik’s second quarter results fell below our expectations due to continued weakness in new customer acquisition, partly due to a decline in industry-wide consumer confidence,” said Ezra Dabah, CEO, Kidpik.

“As we previously mentioned, the rate of our new customer acquisition has been impacted by privacy policies changes across social media. To address this challenge, we’ve expanded our brand ambassador program, and are focused on our search platform strategy, leveraging our robust database and other channels. Last week we introduced Kidpik Baby, adding sizes 12 and 18 months to our existing product offerings, which presents growth opportunities among existing and new subscribers. Additionally, we have re-launched our website, creating a streamlined shopping experience and an elevated brand image for the back-to-school season,” concluded Dabah.
