Analysts tracked by FactSet were modeling $164.4 million in revenue and a $21.1 million loss on the basis of adjusted Ebitda. For the full year, executives are targeting $615 million to $635 million in revenue along with an Ebitda loss of $100 million to $110 million. RealReal's prior forecast was for $635 million to $665 million in revenue as well as an $80 million to $100 million loss on an adjusted Ebitda basis. "Given the sales labor-related supply shortfall coming out of the second quarter and the shift in consumer demand more reflective of our pre-COVID mix, we are reducing our full year 2022 guidance," Chief Financial Officer Robert Julian said in a release. "However, we are confident about our long-term strategy and prospects."
