Rent the Runway remains a buy, with a P/S-based target price range of $9.64–$16.03, implying significant upside from current levels. Q1 FY26 revenue grew 29% year-over-year, but profitability and free cash flow remain negative; subscriber growth is moderate, and seasonality is a concern. Leadership risk is elevated following the CEO and CFO departures, with interim management drawn from Nordstrom, but permanent appointments are still pending.
Rent the Runway NASDAQ: RENT reported sharply higher first-quarter fiscal 2026 revenue and reiterated its full-year outlook, as management pointed to stronger subscriber monetization, growth in add-on items and early progress in new revenue initiatives.
Rent the Runway announced an upcoming CEO transition Wednesday (May 13), saying that Co-founder Jennifer Hyman will step down as CEO, president and board member on Friday (May 15) and be succeeded by Board Member Teri Bariquit, who will serve as interim CEO and president.
