"The fourth quarter represented an encouraging finish to 2023 as sales finished within our guidance range and increased year-over-year for the first time in eight quarters," said Chief Executive Officer Rob DeMartini. "Throughout last year we made meaningful progress capturing market share and repositioning Purple as a premium brand despite ongoing industry headwinds. The launch of our innovative new mattresses and new marketing campaign fueled improved sales trends across all channels in the second half. Backed by marketing efficiencies, fourth quarter profitability was in-line with expectations highlighted by positive operating income in the month of December."
DeMartini continued, "Looking ahead, we will continue to implement the strategic initiatives that are clearly resulting in operating and financial improvements. Specifically, our focus is on further share gains and enhancing earnings by driving productivity, efficiency and innovation across the business. This includes improving showroom and wholesale door velocity through new revenue initiatives and cost controls. Increasing conversion rates on our ecommerce site is also a priority through ongoing testing and optimization. At the same time, earnings expansion should come from price increases, product mix shifts and manufacturing improvements combined with more efficient ad spending focused on existing mattress shoppers. While near-term industry challenges persist, the foundation is now in place for long-term, profitable growth."
Fourth Quarter 2023 Review
Fourth quarter 2023 net revenue increased 1.1% to $145.9 million, compared to $144.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. This increase was driven by the positive response to the Company's new product lineup, along with increased advertising spend to support the new product launch and enhanced brand positioning, partially offset by soft industry-wide demand for home-related products in the current operating environment. By channel, DTC net revenues increased 4.3% driven by slightly higher e-commerce revenue, in addition to growth in Purple showroom revenue from the addition of five net new showrooms over the previous 12 months and improvements in stores open greater than 12 months. Wholesale revenue for the fourth quarter was down 2.7%, which was ahead of industry trends driven by growing consumer adoption of the new product line.
Gross margin for the fourth quarter 2023 decreased to 33.2% compared to 34.6% in the year ago period. Adjusted gross margin, which excludes discounts and one-time costs associated with the product transition, was 36.7% in the fourth quarter. These discounts and costs included industry standard price reductions on the sell-in of new mattress floor models to wholesale partners associated with the transition to the new premium and luxury product lineups and inventory reserves for legacy products. In addition, the Company experienced increased labor and airfreight costs associated with the new product launch. Net of these transitional items, gross margins were positively impacted by manufacturing efficiencies from higher production volumes in 2023 and increased average selling prices of the company's expanded product line.
Operating expenses were $64.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $61.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. This increase in operating expenses was largely driven by a $4.0 million increase in advertising expenses to support the product launch including a brand campaign that highlights Purple's premium positioning and showcases the benefits of its proprietary sleep technology.
Operating loss was $(16.2) million for the fourth quarter 2023 compared to an operating loss of $(11.9) million in the prior year period.
Net loss was $(18.3) million for the fourth quarter 2023 compared to a net loss of $(71.7) million in the year ago period. Adjusted net loss which excludes adjustments for certain non-cash items and other items the Company does not consider in the evaluation of ongoing operational performance, including losses associated with the extinguishment of debt, was $(15.8) million, or $(0.15) per adjusted diluted share, compared to $(8.1) million, or $(0.09) per adjusted diluted share in the prior year period. Adjusted net income and adjusted net loss has also been adjusted to reflect an estimated effective income tax rate of 25.9% for the current year period and 25.1% for the comparable prior year period.
EBITDA for the fourth quarter 2023 was $(10.1) million compared to $155.4 million in the fourth quarter 2022. Adjusted EBITDA was $(9.8) million compared to adjusted EBITDA of $(0.8) million in the prior year period.
Full Year 2023 Review
Full year 2023 net revenue decreased 10.9% to $510.5 million, compared to $573.2 million in 2022. This decrease was primarily due to a continuation of the soft demand environment for home-related goods, partially offset by the positive response to the launch in May 2023 of the Company's new Premium and Luxe products. By channel, versus prior year, direct to consumer net revenues declined 10.2%. Within DTC, ecommerce declined 16.4%, driven primarily by the ongoing impact of softening demand. Showroom net revenue increased 15.8% driven largely by the opening of five net new showrooms in 2023 and the annualization impact of adding 27 net new showrooms in 2022 combined with the positive response to the Company's new higher-priced Luxe product, improving average selling price within the showroom channel. Wholesale net revenues decreased 11.9% year-over-year driven primarily by the soft demand environment along with the impact related to the new product launch in May 2023, including the industry-standard practice the sell-in of new floor models to wholesale partners at reduced pricing. These factors were partially offset by the growth in net new wholesale partners slots in 2023 resulting from the positive response to the new product collection.
Gross margin for 2023 was 33.7% compared to 36.3% in the year ago period. This decrease was largely due to the impact of the new product launch including the industry-standard practice of new floor models being sold to wholesale partners at reduced pricing, higher labor and freight cost, decreased manufacturing efficiency, inventory reserves for legacy products and increased discounting of discontinued product through the Company's DTC sales channels. Adjusted gross margin, which excludes discounts and one-time costs associated with the product transition, was 37.2% in 2023.
Operating expenses increased $34.7 million to $285.5 million compared to $250.8 million in 2022. This increase was driven primarily by an increase in marketing and sales expense of $16.9 million, or 10.2%, to $182.3 million, largely attributable to showroom expansion, coupled with costs incurred as part of the launch of the Company's new product lineup. These incurred costs include the increase in advertising expenses to support the new product launch and increased wholesale marketing and sales costs due to the transition of partner product inventories to the Company's new product lineup. In addition, the Company incurred $11.4 million of Special Committee costs and a $6.9 million goodwill impairment charge in 2023.
Operating loss for 2023 was $(113.7) million compared to an operating loss of $(42.8) million in the prior year.
Net loss was $(120.8) million for 2023 compared to a net loss of $(92.5) million in 2022. Adjusted net loss which excludes adjustments for certain non-cash items and other items the Company does not consider in the evaluation of ongoing operational performance, including charges in 2022 to provide for a full valuation allowance for income taxes and to fully reserve for the tax receivable agreement, Special Committee fees, goodwill impairment and losses associated with the extinguishment of debt, was $(73.0) million, or $(0.70) per adjusted diluted share, compared to $(31.4) million, or $(0.38) per adjusted diluted share in the prior year period. Adjusted net income and adjusted net loss has also been adjusted to reflect an estimated effective income tax rate of 25.9% for the current year period and 23.7% for the comparable prior year period.
EBITDA for 2023 was $(92.9) million compared to $142.5 million in 2022. Adjusted EBITDA was $(54.7) million compared to adjusted EBITDA of $(0.2) million in the prior year.

Forward-looking statements provide current expectations or forecasts of future events or determinations. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, conditions or results, and involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside the Company's control, that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and adjusted net income per diluted share are non-GAAP financial measures that remove the impact of certain non-cash and non-recurring costs. Management believes that the use of such non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with additional useful information with respect to the impact of various adjustments, which we view as a better measure of our operating performance. Refer to the attached table for the reconciliation of such non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measure.
With respect to the Company's Adjusted EBITDA outlook for the full year 2024, a quantitative reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP information cannot be provided without unreasonable effort because of the inherent difficulty of accurately forecasting the occurrence and financial impact of the various adjusting items necessary for such reconciliation that have not yet occurred, are out of our control, or cannot be reasonably predicted, including but not limited to warrant liabilities and stock based compensation. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to assess the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could have a material impact on its future GAAP financial results.

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP MEASURES
(In thousands)
Management believes that the use of the following non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with additional useful information with respect to the impact of various adjustments, which we view as a better measure of our operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net loss, and adjusted net loss per diluted share. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP measures differently than we do. These non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for our financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Reconciliation of GAAP Net Loss to Non-GAAP EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
A reconciliation of GAAP net loss to the non-GAAP measures of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA is provided below. EBITDA represents net loss before interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, other expense (income), net, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA excluding costs incurred due to changes in the fair value of the warrant liability, debt extinguishment, stock-based compensation expense, impairment of goodwill, vendor separation fee, tax receivable agreement, nonrecurring legal fees, Board special committee costs, executive interim and search costs, severance costs, showroom opening costs, new production facility start-up costs and COVID-19 related expenses. We believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide additional useful information with respect to the impact of various adjustments and provide meaningful measures of our operating performance.

Reconciliation of GAAP Gross Margin to Adjusted Gross Margin
A reconciliation of GAAP gross margin to the non-GAAP measure of adjusted gross margin is provided below. Adjusted gross margin represents adjusted net revenue less adjusted cost of revenues. Adjusted revenue represents revenue adjusted for revenue deemed lost through discounts on products during our transition to our new product line. Adjusted cost of revenues presents cost of revenues excluding certain incremental costs incurred during our transition to our new product line. We believe adjusted gross margin provides additional useful information with respect to the impact of certain temporary or one-time items and provides a meaningful measure of our operating performance.

Reconciliation of GAAP Net Loss to non-GAAP Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted Net Loss per Diluted Share
Our presentation of adjusted net loss assumes that all net loss is attributable to Purple Innovation, Inc. (i.e. there is no allocation of net loss to noncontrolling interests), which assumes the full exchange at the beginning of the period of all outstanding Paired Securities for shares of Class A common stock of Purple Innovation, Inc., adjusted for certain nonrecurring items that we do not believe directly reflect our core operations. Adjusted net loss per share, diluted, is calculated by dividing adjusted net loss by the total shares of Class A common stock outstanding plus any dilutive warrants, options and restricted stock as calculated in accordance with GAAP and assuming the full exchange of all outstanding Paired Securities as of the beginning of each period presented. Adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per diluted share, are supplemental measures of operating performance that do not represent, and should not be considered, alternatives to net loss and loss per share, as calculated in accordance with GAAP. We believe adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per diluted share, supplement GAAP measures and enable us to more effectively evaluate our performance period-over-period. A reconciliation of net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to adjusted net loss and the computation of adjusted net loss per diluted share, are set forth below:
