Our Brands

Princess Polly

Founded in Australia in 2010, Princess Polly joined a.k.a. Brands in July 2018. Princess Polly is a leading fashion brand loved globally for its trend-driven designs, viral online presence and exclusive influencer collaborations.

The brand operates predominantly online and targets female customers between the ages of 15 and 25, who value the brand’s high-quality, fresh and exclusive fashion styles at accessible price points. Since joining a.k.a. Brands, Princess Polly has experienced rapid growth and increasing brand awareness in the United States. In connection with its U.S. expansion, Princess Polly opened its first brick-and-mortar store in September 2023 at Century City in Los Angeles. Following positive customer response, Princess Polly expanded its physical retail footprint by opening five stores across the United States in 2024 and seven additional stores in the United States and one store in Australia in 2025. As of December 31, 2025, Princess Polly operated fourteen stores globally and expects to open approximately 8 to 10 additional stores in 2026. A full list of Princess Polly store locations can be found here: https://us.princesspolly.com/pages/store-locator.

Petal & Pup

Petal & Pup, founded in Australia in 2014 and expanded into the U.S. via its acquisition by a.k.a. Brands in 2019, is a rapidly growing global feminine lifestyle brand, targeting women in their 20s and 30s. Petal & Pup’s collections embody a vibrant, confident femininity, inspired by its Australian roots and designed to encourage women to celebrate life's moments. What started as an online brand, Petal & Pup has experienced significant expansion, particularly in the United States, and can now be found in major U.S. retailers including Nordstrom, Amazon, Stitch Fix and more.

Culture Kings

Founded in Australia in 2008, Culture Kings joined a.k.a. Brands in March 2021. Culture Kings is a premier international streetwear retail destination, standing at the intersection of fashion, art, sports and music, and a leader in the worldwide streetwear phenomenon. Culture Kings offers its customers a curated assortment of in-house designed apparel brands, such as Loiter, Carre and Saint Morta, and exclusive products from over 100 leading third-party streetwear brands, including Nike, New Era, Mitchell and Ness and more. Culture Kings operates nine experiential concept stores in major cities in Australia and New Zealand, and opened its first U.S. store in Las Vegas in November 2022. The brand has become internationally recognized for its immersive shopping experiences, both online and in-stores, that offer customers top brands and exclusive products, event-driven store activations, live DJs, Holy Grail arcades, basketball courts and music performances in store. In 2025, Culture Kings deepened its event-driven activation strategy with high-profile partnerships including a WWE collection launch during WrestleMania Weekend, a co-hosted Timberland performance during ComplexCon, and a Loiter x Yu-Gi-Oh capsule collection to drive brand awareness and customer engagement.

mnml

Founded in Los Angeles in 2016, mnml joined a.k.a. Brands in October 2021. mnml is a men’s streetwear brand that designs premier, fashion-forward apparel at accessible prices. As an early mover in the direct-to-consumer streetwear segment, mnml has created powerful brand recognition and is an established destination for modern wardrobe staples, current trends and highly sought-after styles. In addition to its powerful direct-to-consumer channels, mnml is a top-seller at Culture Kings, both online and in stores, and continued testing marketplace and wholesale initiatives in 2025 to expand brand awareness.

Our Competitive Strengths

Great Product

Exclusive High-Quality Fashion

Our women’s merchandise is designed in-house and exclusive to our brands, and the majority of our streetwear styles are either exclusive in-house designed brands or exclusive styles from leading third-party brands. Culture Kings designs and creates fashion apparel styles under approximately 10 owned brands and sells hundreds of headwear and footwear styles of leading third-party brands, including Nike, New Era, Asics, Adidas and more, to complete the streetwear outfit. Our customers’ satisfaction with the fit, quality, affordability and exclusivity of our styles is further reflected in our sales return rates across our brands, which was well below industry average in 2025 at approximately 18.3%.

Data-Driven Merchandising Drives On-Trend Fashion with Strong Gross Margins

Our customers crave newness and excitement and we deliver this by creating and curating on-trend, high-quality and affordable fashion. We utilize real-time data and consumer insights to identify the latest trends, and work with our global sourcing network to quickly bring new, high-quality products to market. Our women’s brands merchandise is all purchased using our agile test, repeat & clear merchandising model, which enables us to quickly react to customer demand and test product appeal without taking large initial inventory positions. We buy small quantities of new styles, release them on social media and our sites weekly, quickly read customer data to analyze the demand and replenish best-selling product in 30-60 days. This model provides greater certainty that our merchandise is always on-trend, quick to market and with minimal inventory risk because we only replenish the styles for which there is demonstrated customer demand. While our women’s brands have fully adopted the test, repeat & clear model, beginning in 2024 we began transforming the Culture Kings owned brands merchandising approach to adopt the model as well. With significant progress in 2025, this led to double digit net sales and gross profit dollar growth in Culture Kings owned brands such as Loiter. Our test, repeat & clear merchandising strategy is possible because the majority of our styles are exclusive styles that cannot be found elsewhere.

Customer Led

Direct-to-Consumer First Brands who Efficiently Acquire Customers Through Authentic Content

Our brands seek to constantly innovate their marketing strategies and reach their customers organically across all channels including social media, paid performance and innovative brand marketing strategies. Our brands engage with customers by releasing a stream of inspiring digital content at high frequency across over 20 different platforms where we know our customers are. We believe our content-rich narrative and authentic brand messaging drives organic traffic to our websites, efficiently generating demand, enhancing connectivity with customers and amplifying our brand communities. Core to our marketing strategy is the use of social media influencers, and we maintain relationships with thousands of influencers globally and utilize them to test and launch new products, gather customer feedback, increase brand awareness and acquire new customers in a cost-effective manner. In 2025, our brands accelerated their TikTok growth strategies, including launching on TikTok Shop and leveraging TikTok Live for content creation. In addition to social media marketing, we also leverage our stores and off-site locations to host both influencer marketing events as well as marketing activations to expand brand awareness. For example, in 2025 Culture Kings held unique and exciting activations and collaborations with WWE, ComplexCon, UFC, McLaren Racing, Summer Smash, TikTok Shop, Timberland and more.

Meet Our Customers Anywhere

Nimble by design, our brands meet our customers with a great experience whether online or in person. Our brands greatly value the direct relationship with customers and the primary channel for all of our brands is direct-to-consumer and online. However, to build a next-generation brand, we believe it’s imperative to show up where our customers are shopping. Princess Polly opened its first store in Los Angeles, California, in September 2023 and, following positive customer response, expanded its physical retail footprint by opening five stores across the United States in 2024 and seven additional stores in the United States and one store in Australia in 2025. As of December 31, 2025, Princess Polly operated fourteen stores globally and expects to open approximately 8 to 10 additional stores in 2026. Culture Kings also operates nine experiential and immersive concept stores in major cities in Australia and New Zealand, and opened its first U.S. store in Las Vegas in November 2022. We believe our next-generation stores serve as a powerful customer acquisition tool, and provide customers a unique and immersive brand experience. We also continue testing wholesale and marketplace initiatives across our brands to build brand awareness and increase brand touchpoints for our customers. In 2025, Petal & Pup and Princess Polly successfully launched in all Nordstrom stores across the U.S., further expanding the brands’ footprint and customer touchpoints. At the end of 2025, across our brands, we had partnerships in place with leading retailers such as: Nordstrom, Amazon, Liverpool, Nuuly, Stitch Fix and more.

Operational Excellence

Asset Light Technology and Operations

Our brands leverage a broad network of third-party service and technology providers, which allows us to implement the latest capabilities with limited upfront investment and quickly adopt innovations in the market. We utilize a combination of owned and third-party logistics and fulfillment assets and third-party technology partners, creating flexibility to support our high-growth brands with fast and efficient fulfillment and shipping. We customize our approach for each brand to allow for optimization and tailored growth tools, which sets us apart from other centralized platforms. Additionally, given our scale, we negotiate favorable rates with our vendors, providing our brands with attractive terms and enhancing overall profitability.

Robust and Flexible Platform to Support Growth

Our brands operate independently but have access to resources, guidance and vendors at the a.k.a. Brands level. We believe this model balances scale-enabled cost savings with operational flexibility, facilitates low-risk innovation and accommodates the needs of our brands at various stages of growth. Our operating model is designed to provide collective advantages, by leveraging access to a highly-skilled leadership team who have deep expertise in the business of fashion, sharing learnings across the brands and accelerating profitable growth through flexible back-end operations at lower costs.

Our Growth Strategies

We believe our global next-generation fashion brands are disrupting categories with strong fundamental growth and capitalizing on long-term global secular tailwinds. We intend to execute the following strategies to expand our business and gain market share:

Attract and Retain Customers

We believe our brands are underpenetrated in the markets in which they operate. We think there is a significant opportunity to grow awareness of our brands through the strength of our innovative and authentic marketing approach and successful test, repeat & clear merchandising model. We intend to efficiently acquire new customers through continued investment in our content creation, brand marketing and social media capabilities. We also intend to refine our test, repeat & clear merchandising approach. We believe that our brands have a significant opportunity to expand product ranges, increase average order value and broaden customer reach. We also intend to deepen customer relationships to improve customer retention and increase wallet share. We aim to achieve this by enhancing our user experience, improving engagement, refining our customer segmentation, increasing personalization and testing third party artificial intelligence functions to improve the customer experience.

Expand our Omnichannel Reach Through Additional Stores and Wholesale Partnerships

Our brands primarily operate direct-to-consumer, and we expect that they will continue to operate in that manner as we continue to grow. Based on the strong success of our omnichannel initiatives in 2025, we plan to accelerate our omnichannel expansion in 2026 to further build brand awareness. In 2026, we anticipate that Princess Polly will open 8-10 stores across the U.S. and Australia. Additionally, based on the success of Princess Polly’s and Petal & Pup’s wholesale and marketplace initiatives, Princess Polly and Petal & Pup successfully launched in all Nordstrom stores across the U.S. in 2025, and we intend to continue growing our successful marketplace and wholesale initiatives with partners such as Dillard’s, Nuuly, Stitch Fix, Nykaa, Von Maur and more in 2026 for Petal & Pup. Culture Kings and mnml will also continue testing wholesale and marketplace opportunities in 2026 to expand their reach and attract new customers to the brand.

Grow Internationally

We intend to leverage the strength of our brands and our ability to connect with customers to expand into new international markets beyond our core U.S. and Australian markets. In 2025, net sales to customers outside of the U.S. and Australia/New Zealand was $20.3 million across 180 countries and territories and represented 3% of total sales.

We will continue to target markets that demonstrate strong social and digital media usage. As part of our long-term strategy, we have identified several markets in which we believe we can successfully introduce one or more of our brands in the future, such as expanding Princess Polly in Canada, Europe and the U.K. In 2026, we plan to open distribution for Princess Polly in the U.K. to better meet the demand and lead times for our U.K. and European customers. Additionally, we plan to enter into key markets through strategic wholesale and marketplace partnerships.

Grow Through Acquisitions

We employ a corporate development team dedicated to the identification, evaluation and acquisition of brands, and we maintain a strong pipeline of potential targets, which typically includes multiple acquisition opportunities at differing stages of evaluation.

We seek next-generation brands with strong customer followings and a proven track record of operating profitably but that need help scaling to further accelerate their growth. We look for talented and passionate teams who have proven abilities to leverage data, technology and content to grow. We seek asset-light brands that have the potential to benefit from the a.k.a. expertise and resources. We look for brands with similar operating and financial characteristics as our existing brands. We are continuously evaluating opportunities for such acquisitions.

Continue to Drive Efficiencies

As we continue to scale, we aim to improve operational performance across our portfolio and enhance profitability. We will also look for ways to reduce our costs by leveraging our collective scale to negotiate improved terms with suppliers and vendors, including for raw materials, freight and shipping. As our brands grow and gain scale, we intend to invest in artificial intelligence, automation and process improvement within our operations to drive lower variable costs and improved profitability.

Our Industry

We primarily operate in the large and growing global apparel, footwear and accessories industry. According to UniformMarket, the operator of industry trade journals and news websites, the global apparel market grew to $1.84 trillion in 2025. Total consumer spending in the apparel industry amounts to $2.4 trillion globally. Total consumer spending in the global apparel market is expected to grow to $2.88 trillion by 2029. Though we ship our products globally, we operate primarily in two geographies: the U.S. and Australia. The U.S. has the largest apparel market of any country, which grew to $365.7 billion in 2025 and is expected to grow at a 2.1% compounded annual growth rate (“CAGR”) from 2025 to 2028. According to Market Research Future, a global market research company, the Australian apparel market was expected to grow to over $24.6 billion in 2025 and grow at over a 3.0% CAGR through 2035. We believe the key factors driving growth within the global apparel, footwear and accessories industry include favorable demographic trends and desire for constant newness.

Apparel, Footwear and Accessories Shopping Has Been Growing Online

Consumers are increasingly turning to online channels to make purchases, driven by the growing Millennial and Gen Z populations and the increasing influence of social and digital media channels. According to Grand View Research, a market research and consulting company, the global online apparel market was valued at approximately $711 billion in 2025, and was expected to grow at an 8.6% CAGR through 2030. According to Statista, a platform specialized in market and consumer data, the U.S. online apparel, footwear and accessories market was valued at approximately $159 billion in 2025 and could surpass $219 billion by 2029.

Digital-Savvy Millennial and Gen Z Consumers Seeking the Next-Generation Shopping Experience

According to data from the U.S. Census Bureau, Millennial and Gen Z consumers, our primary target demographic today, account for 22% and 21% of the U.S. population, respectively, making them a large and growing demographic group with significant economic influence. In addition, in the U.S., content consumption studies found that 90% of Millennials use social media every day, while the use of social media by Gen Z consumers is growing at the fastest rate of any generation, with projected growth of 7.7% in 2024 alone.

Technology Infrastructure

Our brands are built on a modern, flexible and scalable technology infrastructure, which leverages a broad network of best-in-class, third-party technology providers. We then combine that customized presentation layer with the backend engine from Shopify, which is a proven and industry-leading eCommerce solution. By pairing our own in-house technology with cloud software, we have been able to create a differentiated user experience that we can adjust as necessary while also leveraging engineering talent from some of the best software as a service (“SaaS”) companies in the world to scale rapidly and efficiently. Our cloud-based, SaaS native strategy allows us to adopt innovative, dynamic technologies, including emerging artificial intelligence (“AI”) and machine learning capabilities with limited upfront investment. We selectively integrate AI-enabled tools to enhance decision-making, automation, personalization, and operational efficiency, while maintaining appropriate governance, security controls, and human oversight. We continuously evaluate these technologies to ensure responsible use, protection of customer and company data, and alignment with our business objectives and values. We consider this to be a key differentiating factor compared to traditional retail proprietary technology stacks and for which switching to a more agile cloud-based SaaS solution could be too costly and risky.

Our technology infrastructure integrates seamlessly across our organization, connecting in a way that allows constant iteration and improvement. We leverage highly customizable solutions, including AI-assisted capabilities, to deliver improved customer experiences, while limiting the costs and time required of custom bespoke solutions. This approach allows us to easily test new capabilities and AI use cases on a limited and low-cost basis, analyze and learn from the results, and then scale successful initiatives more broadly. We are leveraging our technology infrastructure, including AI-enabled tools, to accelerate our scale and growth and drive efficiencies in areas spanning marketing, merchandising, customer experience, supply chain, operations and administration, while ensuring that critical decisions remain subject to appropriate human review and oversight. We have established an AI Governance Policy and framework that includes periodic risk assessments, defined approval processes for new AI implementations, and ongoing monitoring of AI system outputs for accuracy and potential bias.

Sourcing

We source our products from a network of international suppliers. Our supplier base included 465 suppliers across 18 different countries as of December 31, 2025.

Table of Contents

We have strong long-term relationships with our manufacturers, but we do not have any long-term commitments requiring us to purchase minimum volumes from any supplier or manufacturer. We seek to leverage our collective scale and use the same suppliers across our multiple brands, where possible, in order to obtain more favorable terms from our suppliers. Our network of third-party suppliers allows us to be capital efficient and nimble, giving us the ability to move new designs we receive from our suppliers into production and then into inventory in as few as 30 to 45 days for the majority of our inventory, as compared to up to nine months for traditional apparel brands.

We strategically establish sourcing relationships to ensure a constant supply of high-quality, low-cost inventory, with a number of our suppliers exclusively manufacturing for our brands. Although we have our own design team, a number of suppliers have the capability to produce concepts and designs with no obligation for our brands to purchase. With less seasonal demand for our products, we offer our manufacturing partners predictable and consistent growth in inventory purchases throughout the year.

People & Culture

We promote a holistic approach to building our team and have created a culture that is inclusive, diverse and high performing. We seek out and hire team members who bring specialized, functional expertise while able to collaborate effectively across brands, functions and geographies. Our culture is fast-paced, promotes accountability, empowers team members to drive the business forward daily, stresses a bias toward action and embraces the individuality of each team member.

Attracting, motivating and retaining passionate talent at all levels is vital to continuing our success. We actively look for talented people across multiple geographies and promote a “work from anywhere” approach, which allows us to maintain a lean physical footprint and employ offices as team collaboration hubs. We continuously work to improve the team member experience to drive retention and engagement. None of our employees are represented by a labor union or covered by a collective bargaining agreement. While each of our brands celebrates its own unique culture and brand values, we collectively embrace a next-generation mindset:

•We are customer-led—focusing relentlessly on delivering a high-quality customer experience;

•We move fast—executing on innovative ideas swiftly;

•We are data driven—using data and analytics to make smarter decisions every day;

•We are growth minded—testing and learning continuously in and across our brands;

•We are diverse—celebrating and expanding the diversity of our customers and teams; and

•We act with integrity and practice responsible fashion—when in doubt, we hold ourselves to the highest standard.

As of December 31, 2025, we had more than 1,650 full- and part-time employees. The majority of our workforce is located in Australia, with the remaining employees located throughout the United States. On a limited basis, we may use temporary personnel to supplement our workforce as business needs arise.

Sustainability and Responsible Fashion

a.k.a. Brands promotes sustainable, responsible and inclusive fashion and does so by focusing on four key areas: ethical sourcing, sustainability, environment and equality & community. Princess Polly was recognized as a business that meets high standards of social and environmental impact by achieving a B Corp certification in 2025. This certification reflects the commitment to creating lasting positive change in the fashion industry while continuing to make on-trend fashion accessible and sustainable.

Ethical Sourcing

We aim to promote a safe and respectful environment for workers who make our products and protect their human rights. For example, in 2025, Princess Polly maintained valid ethical manufacturing audits for 100% of final stage production, or tier-one production, and extended this to also cover 100% of sites with a direct relationship, including packaging, branded hardware and fabric. The Princess Polly Social Responsibility team, with the support of two on-ground ethical sourcing resources in China, achieved 360 site visits in India, Vietnam and China. The suite of tools to support factory managers and the global a.k.a. Brands team has also been improved, extending e-learning to over 120 Princess Polly and Culture Kings team members, and making all tools available in Vietnamese to support production diversification. Princess Polly is the leader on ethical sourcing in our portfolio and amongst their digitally native brand peers, and we will leverage Princess Polly’s best practices and apply them to the rest of our portfolio. We are devoted to making continual progress towards our commitments and being transparent along the way.

Sustainability

We are making on-trend fashion more sustainable and accessible to everyone by transitioning our products to be made with lower environmental impact. Presently, 40% of Princess Polly’s product range is made from certified lower-impact materials, including organic, recycled or forest-friendly alternatives to conventional materials. Princess Polly is aiming to have 100% of its products made with lower-impact materials by 2030.

Environment

We are committed to protecting the planet by addressing climate change, promoting circularity and improving the environmental impact of our packaging, business operations and factories. Our business model limits the planetary burden of overproduction. Our real-time, demand-driven and automated ordering system allows production to track demand as accurately as possible. This high-velocity, low-waste strategy allows us to avoid unnecessary production. In 2023, Princess Polly approved near- and long-term science-based emissions reduction targets with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), in line with a 1.5 degree temperature rise. Princess Polly met its 2025 SBTi renewable energy target, and will continue to source 100% renewable energy annually. Princess Polly also achieved a 2025 CDP score of A- and is making progress towards its 2030 target for 52% Scope 3 emissions intensity reductions, and, by mid-2025, it has achieved an intensity reduction of 23% on its base year.

Competition

The online and offline retail markets generally are highly competitive and rapidly evolving. We face significant competition from eCommerce websites, including apparel- and accessories-oriented eCommerce websites as well as the eCommerce websites of traditional retailers. We also face competition from direct-from-manufacturer retailers and in-person stores and boutiques, including traditional retailers and fashion boutiques.

We compete based on product selection, differentiation, exclusivity, brand quality and strength of customer relationships, relevance, convenience, ease of use and consumer experience, including order fulfillment and shipping timelines. We believe we compete favorably across these factors taken as a whole.

Seasonality

Due to our operations being concentrated in two distinct geographies (Australia and the United States), our business has experienced seasonality that may differ from that of other retailers. The first quarter has historically been our lowest sales quarter, and that trend is likely to continue as we continue to expand into the U.S. market.

Intellectual Property

We primarily protect our intellectual property through the trademark, copyright and trade secret laws of Australia and the United States. As of December 31, 2025, we owned over 490 trademark registrations and nearly 150 Internet domain names. Although we have not sought copyright registration for our technology or works to date, we rely on common law copyright and trade secret protections in relation to our proprietary technology, products and the content displayed on our websites, including our photography and fabric prints that we design. Our trademarks, including domain names, are material to our business and brand identity.

In addition to the protections provided by our intellectual property rights, we enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants, contractors and business partners. We further control the use of our technology and intellectual property through provisions in both our client terms of use on our website and in our vendor terms and conditions.

Our products are also subject to import regulations in the United States and other countries, including those enforced by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, concerning the use of wildlife products for commercial and non-commercial trade. Our supply chain is also subject to an evolving set of laws addressing forced labor, human trafficking, and supply chain transparency in the United States, Australia, and other jurisdictions.

We rely on trademark, trade dress, copyright, and other intellectual property protections and are subject to domestic and international laws governing the registration, maintenance, and enforcement of such rights.
