Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Description of Business Playboy, Inc. (formerly known as PLBY Group, Inc. from February 10, 2021 through June 24, 2025, the “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”), together with its subsidiaries through which it conducts business, is a global consumer lifestyle company marketing the Playboy brand through a wide range of direct-to-consumer products, Playboy magazine, licensing initiatives, digital subscriptions and content, and online and location-based entertainment, in addition to the sale of direct-to-consumer products through its Honey Birdette brand. In the fourth quarter of 2024, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Playboy Enterprises, Inc. (“PEI”), entered into a License & Management Agreement (the “LMA”) with Byborg Enterprises SA (“Byborg”), pursuant to which Byborg agreed, that as of January 1, 2025, Byborg would operate our Playboy Plus, Playboy TV (online and linear) and Playboy Club digital businesses and license the right to use certain Playboy trademarks and other intellectual property for related businesses and certain other categories. Such digital operations were previously part of our Digital Subscriptions and Content operating and reportable segment. As a result, effective January 1, 2025, we have two reportable segments: Direct-to-Consumer and Licensing. Refer to Note 17, Segments. Basis of Presentation The interim condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Principles of Consolidation The interim condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and all majority-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company follows a monthly reporting calendar, with its fiscal year ending on December 31. Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements The interim condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2025, and the interim condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, cash flows, and mezzanine equity and stockholders’ (deficit) equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 are unaudited. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature that are necessary for the fair statement of our financial position as of June 30, 2025 and our results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. The financial data and other financial information disclosed in these notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements related to the three and six-month periods are also unaudited. The interim condensed consolidated results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025 or for any future annual or interim period. The interim condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed by us with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 13, 2025. Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We regularly assess these estimates, including, but not limited to, valuation of our trademarks and trade names; valuation of our contingent consideration liabilities; valuation of our income taxes; valuation of our only currently authorized and issued preferred stock (our “Series B Convertible Preferred Stock”); pay-per-view and video-on-demand buys, and monthly subscriptions to our television and digital content (prior to the LMA); the adequacy of reserves associated with accounts receivable and inventory; unredeemed gift cards and store credits; licensing commission accruals; and stock-based compensation expense. We base these estimates on historical experience and on various other market-specific and relevant assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates and such differences could be material to the financial position and results of operations. Concentrations of Business and Credit Risk We maintain certain cash balances in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits. We periodically evaluate the credit worthiness of the financial institutions with which we maintain cash deposits. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts and do not believe that there is any material credit risk to our cash. Concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is limited due to the wide variety of customers to whom our products are sold and/or licensed. The following table represents receivables from any individual customer of ours exceeding 10% of our total receivables as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:
Customer | June 30, 2025 |  | December 31, 2024
Customer A | 13 | % |  | *
_________________ *Indicates receivables for the customer did not exceed 10% of our total as of December 31, 2024.
The following table represents revenue from our customers exceeding 10% of our total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:

_________________ (1) The agreement with this licensee was entered into in the fourth quarter of 2024 and went into effect as of January 1, 2025. Refer to Note 16, Related Party Transactions for details.
Restricted Cash At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, restricted cash was primarily related to a cash collateralized letter of credit we maintained in connection with the lease of our Los Angeles headquarters and Honey Birdette’s term deposit in relation to its Sydney office lease. Liquidity Assessment and Management’s Plans The macroeconomic factors that have adversely impacted our business since the second quarter of 2022 have begun to subside in 2025, and our financial performance has improved as we become a more capital-light enterprise. Our net revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 increased by $3.3 million and $3.8 million, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, which contributed to a corresponding reduction in our operating and net losses. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we reported a net operating loss of $5.9 million and $12.1 million, respectively, and negative operating cash flows of $11.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2025, we had approximately $19.6 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. We expect our capital expenditures and working capital requirements in 2025 to be largely consistent with 2024. As of June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with the covenants under our senior secured credit agreement (the “A&R Credit Agreement”), and there is no testing of our Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the A&R Credit Agreement) until the quarter ending June 30, 2026. However, due to ongoing negative macroeconomic factors and their uncertain impacts on our business, results of operations and cash flows, we could experience material decreases to net sales and operating cash flows and materially higher operating losses, and we could then experience difficulty remaining in compliance with such covenants. Refer to Note 8, Debt, for further details regarding the terms of our A&R Credit Agreement and the term loans thereunder. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Although consequences of ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty could adversely affect our liquidity and capital resources in the future, and cash requirements may fluctuate based on the timing and extent of many factors, such as those discussed above, we believe our existing sources of liquidity will be sufficient to meet our obligations as they become due under the A&R Credit Agreement and our other obligations for at least one year following the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We may seek additional equity or debt financing in the future to satisfy capital requirements, respond to adverse changes in our circumstances or unforeseen events, or fund growth opportunities. However, in the event that additional financing is required from third-party sources, we may not be able to raise it on acceptable terms or at all. Advertising Costs We expense advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses were $1.2 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $2.2 million and $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Gift Card Liabilities We account for gift cards sold to customers by recording a liability in other current liabilities and accrued expenses in our consolidated balance sheets at the time of sale, which is recognized as revenue when redeemed or when we have determined the likelihood of redemption to be remote, which is referred to as gift card breakage. Depending on the jurisdiction in which we operate, gift cards sold to customers have expiration dates ranging from three to five years from the date of sale, or they do not expire and may be subject to escheatment rights. Our gift card liability totaled $1.7 million, $1.7 million and $1.6 million as of June 30, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Revenues recognized from gift card liabilities at the beginning of the period were $0.1 million and $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Assets Held for Sale We classify assets and liabilities as held for sale, collectively referred to as the disposal group, when management commits to a formal plan to actively market the assets for sale at a price reasonable in relation to fair value, it is unlikely that significant changes will be made to the plan, the assets are available for immediate sale in their present condition, an active program to locate a buyer and other actions required to complete the sale have been initiated, and the sale of the assets is expected to be completed within one year. A disposal group that is classified as held for sale is initially measured at the lower of its carrying value or fair value less any costs to sell. Any loss resulting from this measurement is recognized in the period in which the held for sale criteria are met. Conversely, gains are not recognized on the sale of a disposal group until the date of sale. The fair value of a disposal group less any costs to sell is assessed each reporting period it remains classified as held for sale and any subsequent changes are reported as an adjustment to the carrying value of the disposal group, as long as the new carrying value does not exceed the carrying value of the asset at the time it was initially classified as held for sale. Assets are not depreciated or amortized while they are classified as held for sale. Long-Lived Assets The carrying amounts of long-lived assets, including property and equipment, stores, acquired definite-lived intangible assets and right-of-use operating lease assets are periodically reviewed for indicators of impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable or that the useful life is shorter than originally estimated. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded impairment charges of $1.5 million on our right-of-use assets related to our corporate leases and wrote off certain of our property, plant and equipment items in the amount of $0.4 million as a result of our decision to sublease certain of our corporate office space. Comprehensive Loss Comprehensive loss consists of net loss and other gains and losses affecting stockholders’ equity that, under GAAP, are excluded from net loss. Our other comprehensive income (loss) represents foreign currency translation adjustments attributable to Honey Birdette’s operations. Refer to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. Total foreign currency transaction gains, net were $0.8 million and $0.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. Total foreign currency transaction losses, net were $0.3 million and $0.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2023-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets, which addresses the accounting and disclosure requirements for certain crypto assets. This ASU requires entities to subsequently measure certain crypto assets at fair value, with changes in fair value recorded in net income in each reporting period. In addition, entities are required to provide additional disclosures about the holdings of certain crypto assets. The ASU’s amendments are effective for all entities holding assets that meet certain scope criteria for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual periods. If an entity adopts the amendments in an interim period, it must adopt them as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. We adopted this ASU in the first quarter of 2025. This ASU did not have a material impact on our disclosures or our condensed consolidated financial statements, as recognized losses related to the fair value remeasurement of our crypto assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were immaterial, and the fair value of our crypto assets was immaterial as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Accounting Pronouncements Issued but Not Yet Adopted In December 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. Under this ASU, public entities must annually (1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than five percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income or loss by the applicable statutory income tax rate). This ASU’s amendments are effective for all entities that are subject to Topic 740, Income Taxes, for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the anticipated impact of this pronouncement on our disclosures. In November 2024, FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which requires entities to disaggregate any relevant expense caption presented on the face of the income statement within continuing operations into the following required natural expense categories, as applicable: (1) purchases of inventory, (2) employee compensation, (3) depreciation, (4) intangible asset amortization, and (5) depreciation, depletion, and amortization recognized as part of oil- and gas-producing activities or other depletion expenses. An entity’s share of earnings or losses from investments accounted for under the equity method is not a relevant expense caption that requires disaggregation. Such ASU’s amendments are effective for all public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. In January 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-01, which revises the effective date of ASU 2024-03 to clarify that all public business entities are required to adopt the guidance in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption of ASU 2024-03 is permitted. We are currently evaluating the anticipated impact of this pronouncement on our disclosures and our condensed consolidated financial statements. In August 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which provides simplified guidance on measuring credit losses for current accounts receivable and contract assets. It offers a practical expedient for all entities and an accounting policy election for non-public business entities to ease the process of estimating expected credit losses under ASC 326-20. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the anticipated impact of this pronouncement on our disclosures and our condensed consolidated financial statements.
