5. Revenue from Contracts with Customers

 

The Company markets and sells its products through e-commerce online channels, retail brick-and-mortar wholesale partners, Purple showrooms, and third-party online retailers. Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies its performance obligations under the contract which involves transferring the promised products to the customer, subject to shipping terms, as described in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

 

Disaggregated Revenue

 

The Company classifies revenue into two categories: direct-to-consumer (“DTC”) and wholesale. The DTC category is comprised of the e-commerce channel that sells directly to consumers who purchase online and through our contact center, and the Purple showrooms channel that sells directly to consumers who purchase at a Company showroom location. The wholesale channel includes all product sales to our retail brick and mortar wholesale partners where consumers make purchases at their retail locations or through their online channels. The Company classifies products into two major categories: sleep products and other. Sleep products include mattresses, platforms, adjustable bases, mattress protectors, pillows and sheets. Other products include cushions and various other products.
