    Fiscal Year 2024 Guidance

    The Company's fiscal year 2024 guidance outlined below incorporates management's expectations regarding consumer demand, and investments and actions aimed at driving sell-through, improving upon foundational capabilities, and building a healthier brand.

    For Fiscal 2024:   
    (Dollars in millions)20242023 Actual% change
    Net Sales$435-$463$458(5)% to 1%
    Adjusted Net Income*$87-$100$108(20)% to (8)%
    Adjusted EBITDA*$143-$159$174(18)% to (9)%

    *Adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures. See “Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for additional information.

    In addition to providing fiscal year 2024 guidance, the Company has elected to provide guidance for net sales for the first quarter of 2024. However, the Company does not undertake to provide quarterly guidance in the future. The Company expects net sales in the range of $92 million to $97 million for the three months ending March 31, 2024.

    The fiscal year 2024 net sales, adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA guidance, and the first quarter 2024 net sales guidance, set forth above are approximations and are based on the Company’s plans and assumptions for the relevant period, including, but not limited to, the following, as applicable:

    • Fiscal Year 2024 Net Sales:
      • The Company assumes that the absolute dollar sell-through trend experienced in the second half of 2023, adjusted for seasonality, represents the normalized base level of sell-through for fiscal year 2024. From there, the Company’s assumptions also incorporate reasonably expected volume drivers on a product and account level basis.
    • Adjusted Gross Profit Margin:
      • The Company anticipates adjusted gross profit margin in the range of 72.5% to 73.1% in fiscal year 2024, compared to 71.4% in fiscal year 2023, due primarily to the lapping of actions taken by the Company to address excess inventory in fiscal year 2023, as well as anticipated efficiencies derived from an internal cost savings program in fiscal year 2024, which is expected to more than offset modestly higher product costs.
    • Adjusted SG&A:
      • The Company expects Adjusted SG&A in the range of $172 million to $179 million, an increase of $19 million to $26 million as compared to fiscal year 2023. The increase is primarily attributed to higher sales and marketing expenses and higher organizational costs due to annualizing the expense of headcount additions made during fiscal 2023.
    • Adjusted EBITDA Margin:
      • The Company expects Adjusted EBITDA margin in the range of 32.8% to 34.3%.
    • Net Interest Expense:
      • The Company expects net interest expense to be approximately $32 million to $34 million during fiscal year 2024.
    • Adjusted Effective Tax Rate:
      • The Company expects an adjusted effective tax rate of approximately 19.5% to 20.5% for fiscal year 2024.

    Many of these factors are macroeconomic in nature and are, therefore, beyond the Company’s control.

The forward-looking statements in this press release represent management’s views as of the date hereof. Unless required by law, the Company neither intends nor assumes any obligation to update these forward-looking statements for any reason after the date hereof to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in the Company’s expectations or otherwise.

    Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    In addition to the financial measures presented in this release in accordance with GAAP, the Company has included certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit margin, adjusted SG&A and adjusted diluted EPS. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with the Company’s financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operating performance and facilitate internal comparisons of its historical operating performance on a more consistent basis by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of its business, results of operations or outlook. In particular, management believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures may be helpful to investors as they are measures used by management in assessing the health of the Company’s business, determining incentive compensation and evaluating its operating performance, as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes.

    The Company calculates adjusted EBITDA as net income, adjusted to exclude: (1) interest expense, net; (2) income tax provision; (3) depreciation and amortization; (4) share-based compensation expense; (5) non-ordinary inventory adjustments; (6) non-ordinary costs and fees; (7) non-ordinary legal costs; and (8) Tax Receivable Agreement liability adjustments. The Company calculates adjusted EBITDA margin by dividing adjusted EBITDA by net sales. The Company calculates adjusted net income as net income, adjusted to exclude: (1) amortization of intangible assets (excluding software); (2) non-ordinary costs and fees; (3) non-ordinary legal costs; (4) non-ordinary inventory adjustments; (5) share-based compensation expense; (6) Tax Receivable Agreement liability adjustment; and (7) tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments. The Company calculates adjusted effective tax rate as effective income tax rate, adjusted to exclude the tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments referenced in item (7) of the immediately preceding sentence. The Company calculates adjusted gross profit as gross profit, adjusted to exclude: (1) non-ordinary inventory adjustments and (2) amortization of patented formulations pertaining to the acquisition of the Olaplex, LLC business in 2020 by certain investment funds affiliated with Advent International, L.P. and other investors (the "Acquisition"). The Company calculates adjusted gross profit margin by dividing adjusted gross profit by net sales. The Company calculates adjusted SG&A as SG&A, adjusted to exclude: (1) share-based compensation expense; (2) non-ordinary legal costs; and (3) non-ordinary costs and fees. The Company calculates adjusted basic and diluted EPS as adjusted net income divided by weighted average basic and diluted shares outstanding, respectively. Please refer to "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Equivalents" located in the financial supplement in this release for further information regarding these adjustments for the periods presented.

    Please refer to "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Equivalents" located in the financial supplement in this release for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP metrics to their most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP.

    This release includes forward-looking guidance for adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted gross profit margin, adjusted effective tax rate and adjusted SG&A. The Company is not able to provide, without unreasonable effort, a reconciliation of the guidance for adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted gross profit margin, adjusted effective tax rate and adjusted SG&A to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because the Company does not currently have sufficient data to accurately estimate the variables and individual adjustments included in the most directly comparable GAAP measure that would be necessary for such reconciliations, including (a) income tax related accruals in respect of certain one-time items, (b) costs related to potential debt or equity transactions, and (c) other non-recurring expenses that cannot reasonably be estimated in advance. These adjustments are inherently variable and uncertain and depend on various factors that are beyond the Company's control and as a result it is also unable to predict their probable significance. Therefore, because management cannot estimate on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort the impact these variables and individual adjustments will have on its reported results in accordance with GAAP, it is unable to provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures included in its fiscal 2024 guidance.
