Stitch Fix's stock fell despite initially soaring on signs of a turnaround due to investor concerns about ongoing revenue declines. The company reported $319 million in revenue, beating estimates but still down 12% YoY, with signs of stabilizing business metrics. Stitch Fix's cheap valuation and potential for multiple expansion, similar to The RealReal, make it an attractive investment despite the prolonged turnaround timeline.

Stitch Fix reported its 1Q25 figures, with some stabilization in the revenue and client deterioration trend. Clients are still down 19% YoY, but the speed of client loss has shrunk. It is unclear if higher advertising per client has been a driver of this. The company also leveraged its OpEx structure, after warehouse and stylist resizing last year.

Stitch Fix's Q1 gross margin rises Y/Y. It focuses on AI-driven personalization and product assortment improvements, aiming for revenue growth by fiscal 2026.

Stitch Fix stock surged 20% after hours, driven by strong fiscal Q1 2025 results and an optimistic outlook for fiscal Q2 2025. Despite the rally, I am neutral on Stitch Fix due to its high valuation at 36x forward free cash flow, which seems risky. Stitch Fix's initiatives in inventory management, personalized marketing, and private-label brands show promise but face high operational costs and fierce competition.
