TO OUR PEOPLE, PARTNERS AND SHAREHOLDERS,

Revenues of $800 million and adjusted operating margin of 20.2% exceeded our guidance for the second quarter due to a $25 million revenue benefit from faster than expected deliveries and a shift of approximately $40 million of advertising costs from Q2 to Q3 reflecting the later mailing of our RH Interiors Sourcebook.

We are raising the low end of our revenue guidance for the year, and now expect revenue in the range of $3.04 billion to $3.1 billion versus our prior outlook of $3.0 to $3.1 billion, and are maintaining our outlook for adjusted operating margin of 14.5% to 15.5%.

We continue to expect the luxury housing market and broader economy to remain challenging throughout fiscal 2023 and into next year as mortgage rates continue to trend at 20-year highs and the current outlook is for rates to remain unchanged until the second quarter of 2024.

The Company repurchased 3.7 million shares in the second quarter at an average price of $325.65, representing approximately 17% of the total shares outstanding at the beginning of the second quarter.

PRODUCT ELEVATION

We recently mailed our new 604-page RH Interiors Sourcebook, and while it's too early to read the response with only 40% of the mailing in-home this week, the early indications do look promising. We continue to expect our business trends to inflect in the second half of this year with the mailing of our RH Contemporary Sourcebook in late October and our RH Modern Sourcebook in early January, as well as the refresh of our Galleries over the next several quarters. We believe our inflection point will peak in the first half of 2024 as our new collections fully ramp and we begin another cycle of Sourcebook mailings, completely transforming and refreshing the assortment across the entire brand over a 12-month period.

SECOND QUARTER 2023 FINANCIAL RESULTS AND SHAREHOLDER LETTER

We believe the new collections reflect a level of design and quality inaccessible in our current market and a value proposition that will be disruptive across multiple markets, positioning RH to gain market share throughout fiscal 2024. While a product transformation of this magnitude will be margin dilutive in the short term as we cycle out of waning collections, we believe it will once again become margin accretive as selling rates stabilize and allow for supply chain and sourcing efficiencies.

PLATFORM EXPANSION

Our plan to expand the RH brand globally, address new markets locally, and transform our North American Galleries represents a multi-billion dollar opportunity.

This summer we introduced RH to the United Kingdom in a dramatic and unforgettable fashion with the opening of RH England, The Gallery at the Historic Aynho Park, a 17th-century,73-acre estate that is a celebration of History, Design, Food and Wine. We had a spectacular turnout for our opening event in early June and the national and global press coverage the brand received was multiple times greater than any Gallery we've ever opened. Due to RH England's countryside location, we expect the majority of the revenues to be driven by our Interior Design and Trade businesses, which are dependent on building books of business with high value repeat clients like Interior Design Firms and Hospitality projects. The quote books are building and we will soon mail our first Sourcebook in the United Kingdom. While pleased with the early response, there is still much to learn about the seasonality of the business in the English countryside, especially in the winter season. We will know more once we start mailing Sourcebooks and experience a couple of seasons.

Our global expansion also includes openings in Düsseldorf and Munich later this year, with Paris, Brussels and Madrid for 2024, and London, Milan and Sydney for 2025.

Regarding our North American transformation, we continue to plan opening RH Indianapolis and RH Cleveland in the second half of this year, while RH Palo Alto and RH Montecito will now open in early 2024. Additionally, we have 12 North American Galleries in the development pipeline scheduled to open over the next several years.

We also believe there is an opportunity to address new markets locally by opening Design Studios in neighborhoods, towns and small cities where the wealthy and affluent live, visit and vacation. We have several existing locations that have validated this strategy in East Hampton, Yountville, Los Gatos, Pasadena and our former San Francisco Gallery in the Design District, where we have generated annual revenues in the range of $5 to $20 million in 2,000 to 5,000 square feet. We have just secured our first new location for a Design Studio in Palm Desert, which should open in the first half of 2024.

We have identified over 40 locations that are incremental to our previous plans in North America and believe the results of these Design Studios will provide data that could lead to opening larger Galleries in those markets.

OUTLOOK

As mentioned, we are raising the low end of our revenue guidance for the year to a range of $3.04 billion to $3.1 billion and maintaining our outlook for adjusted operating margin in the range of 14.5% to 15.5%. We estimate the 53rd week will result in revenues of approximately $60 million.

For the third quarter of fiscal 2023, we are forecasting revenues of $740 to $760 million, and adjusted operating margin in the range of 8.0% to 10.0%.

We expect to have increased advertising costs of approximately $50 million versus Q2 2023, reflecting the shifting of the RH Interiors Sourcebook from Q2 to Q3, the mailing of our RH Contemporary Sourcebook and the mailing of our first Sourcebook into the United Kingdom.

For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, we are forecasting revenues of $760 to $800 million, and adjusted operating margin in the range of 14.4% to 16.6% with incremental advertising costs of $5 million versus the fourth quarter of last year.

RH BUSINESS VISION & ECOSYSTEM − THE LONG VIEW

We believe, "There are those with taste and no scale, and those with scale and no taste," and the idea of scaling taste is large and far reaching.

Our goal to position RH as the arbiter of taste for the home has proven to be both disruptive and lucrative, as we continue our quest to build the most admired brand in the world.

Our brand attracts the leading designers, artisans and manufacturers, scaling and rendering their work more valuable across our integrated platform, enabling RH to curate the most compelling collection of luxury home products on the planet.

Our efforts to elevate and expand our collection will continue with the introductions of RH Couture, RH Bespoke, RH Color, RH Antiques & Artifacts, RH Atelier and other new collections scheduled to launch over the next decade.

Our plan to open immersive Design Galleries in every major market will unlock the value of our vast assortment, generating revenues of $5 to $6 billion in North America, and $20 to $25 billion globally.

Our strategy is to move the brand beyond curating and selling product to conceptualizing and selling spaces, by building an ecosystem of Products, Places, Services and Spaces that establishes the RH brand as a global thought leader, taste and place maker.

Our products are elevated and rendered more valuable by our architecturally inspiring Galleries, which are further elevated and rendered more valuable by our interior design services and seamlessly integrated hospitality experience.

Our hospitality efforts will continue to elevate the RH brand as we extend beyond the four walls of our Galleries into RH Guesthouses, where our goal is to create a new market for travelers seeking privacy and luxury in the $200 billion North American hotel industry. Additionally, we are creating bespoke experiences like RH Yountville, an integration of Food, Wine, Art & Design in the Napa Valley, RH1 and RH2, our private jets, and RH3, our luxury yacht that is available for charter in the Caribbean and Mediterranean where the wealthy and affluent visit and vacation. These immersive experiences expose new and existing customers to our evolving authority in architecture, interior design and landscape architecture.

This leads to our long-term strategy of building the world's first consumer-facing architecture, interior design and landscape architecture services platform inside our Galleries, elevating the RH brand and amplifying our core business by adding new revenue streams while disrupting and redefining multiple industries.

Our strategy comes full circle as we begin to conceptualize and sell spaces, moving beyond the $170 billion home furnishings market into the $1.7 trillion North American housing market with the launch of RH Residences − fully furnished luxury homes, condominiums and apartments with integrated services that deliver taste and time value to discerning time-starved consumers.

The entirety of our strategy comes to life digitally with The World of RH, an online portal where customers can explore and be inspired by the depth and dimension of our brand.

Our authority as an arbiter of taste will be further amplified when we introduce RH Media, a content platform that will celebrate the most innovative and influential leaders who are shaping the world of architecture and design.

Our plan to expand the RH ecosystem globally multiplies the market opportunity to $7 to $10 trillion, one of the largest and most valuable addressed by any brand in the world today. A one percent share of the global market represents a $70 to $100 billion opportunity.

Our ecosystem of Products, Places, Services and Spaces inspires customers to dream, design, dine, travel and live in a world thoughtfully curated by RH, creating an emotional connection unlike any other brand in the world.

Taste can be elusive, and we believe no one is better positioned than RH to create an ecosystem that makes taste inclusive and, by doing so, elevating and rendering our way of life more valuable.

THE END OF COVID CONFUSION, THE BEGINNING OF THE NEXT EVOLUTION

We've spent far too much time over the past four years debating if this was going to be the Decade of Home or the Death of Retail? If inflation was transitory or if fiscal tightening was mandatory? Home sales and prices shooting up like a rocket, and now falling to earth like a rock. For the first time in my career retailers were comparing their growth rates to any one of the past four years in any given month of any given year. The fact is we're directionally in the same spot we were four years ago, worrying about a financial recession and the polls saying we might have a Presidential regression.

If there was ever a time the world needed a compass, this might be it. For the people of Team RH our compass is our vision, values, beliefs and culture. Those things that drive us and unite us. Those things we live for, would fight for and die for. After several years of being apart due to COVID, we finally returned to The Palace of Fine Arts Theater in San Francisco for what used to be our annual Leadership Conference and we talked about those things. For the first time in the past four years everything came into focus, clear replaced fear and connections were personal not virtual. It felt different because it was different. There is a different level of accountability when someone is standing in front of you, looking straight into your eyes and making a suggestion or a request versus looking blankly into a screen, not knowing if those on the other end have you on mute, or just aren't very interested.

It's time to break the bad habits of COVID. It's time to get off the screens, get out of our home office and reconnect in our team office, or as we did at the Palace. It just felt different, because it was different, and I'm sure it's going to lead to an outcome that's different. Yet it also felt familiar, like finding our way back home. Back with our people, where none of us are smarter than all of us. Getting all the brains in the game and the egos out of the room. Listening and learning, discussing and debating, elevating and aligning.

It felt like the beginning of our next evolution, and it felt like we were beginners again.

Never underestimate the power of a few good people who don't know what can't be done.

Especially these people.

Onward Team RH.

Carpe Diem,

Gary Friedman

Chairman & Chief Executive Officer
