      • Other Revenues in Q1 2024 were $2.5 million. On a constant currency basis, these revenues decreased 92.0% versus the prior year period driven by the wind down of the consumer products business.

    • Gross Profit in Q1 2024 was $137.8 million, compared to $119.5 million in the prior year period. Adjusted gross profit in Q1 2024, which excluded the net impact of $2.5 million of restructuring charges related to prior year restructuring plans, was $140.3 million. Adjusted gross profit in Q1 2023, which excluded the net impact of $18.6 million of restructuring charges, was $138.1 million.

      • Gross Margin in Q1 2024 was 66.7%, as compared to 49.4% in the prior year period. Adjusted gross margin in Q1 2024 was 67.9%, up from an adjusted gross margin of 57.1% in the prior year period, primarily driven by actions to reduce the fixed cost base and mix shift within the business.

    • Non-Cash Intangible Impairment Charges: During Q1 2024, the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges of franchise rights acquired totaling $258.0 million. These impairments were primarily driven by an increase in the Company’s weighted average cost of capital reflecting market factors.

    • Operating Loss in Q1 2024 was $269.3 million, compared to operating loss of $28.6 million in the prior year period. Adjusted operating loss in Q1 2024, which excluded $258.0 million of non-cash intangible impairment charges and the net impact of $5.7 million of restructuring charges related to prior year restructuring plans, was $5.6 million.

    • Diluted Net Loss per share in Q1 2024 was $4.39 compared to diluted net loss per share of $1.68 in the prior year period.

      • Certain items affect year-over-year comparability.

        • Q1 2024 diluted net loss per share incorporated the net negative impact of $4.33 per diluted share in the aggregate due to the following items:
          • $3.05 per diluted share negative impact of non-cash intangible impairment charges for franchise rights acquired.
          • $1.22 per diluted share negative tax impact arising from an unusually high negative annual effective tax rate as a result of a valuation allowance and small pretax loss reflected in the Company’s full year fiscal 2024 guidance.
          • $0.05 per diluted share net negative impact of restructuring charges related to prior year restructuring plans.
        • Q1 2023 diluted net loss per share incorporated the negative impact of $1.59 per diluted share in the aggregate due to the following items:
          • $0.24 per diluted share net negative impact of restructuring charges.
          • $1.30 per diluted share negative tax impact arising from an unusually high negative annual effective tax rate as a result of a valuation allowance and small pretax loss reflected in the Company’s full year fiscal 2023 guidance.

    • Interest Rate Hedges: The Company’s interest rate swaps in effect as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2024 terminated on March 31, 2024. As of May 2, 2024, the Company had no active swaps in place.
    • 2023 Restructuring Plan: In connection with the previously announced 2023 restructuring plan, the Company recorded aggregate restructuring charges of $5.5 million in Q1 2024.
    • Reportable Segment Update: As previously disclosed, as a result of the continued evolution of the Company’s centralized organizational structure in fiscal 2023, and management’s 2024 strategic planning process, the Company’s reportable segments changed commencing with the first day of fiscal 2024 to one segment.

    Full Year Fiscal 2024 Guidance
    The Company is providing the following update to full year fiscal 2024 guidance:

    • Maintaining previously provided revenue guidance range of $830.0 million to $860.0 million, reflecting a $55 million year-over-year headwind from the strategic decision to wind down the Company’s low-margin consumer products business.
    • Operating loss is expected to be in the range of $163.7 million to $153.7 million; excluding the non-cash intangible impairment charges and net impact of restructuring charges recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2024, adjusted operating income is expected to be in the range of $100.0 million to $110.0 million, which is consistent with previously provided operating income guidance that did not include the above impairment and restructuring charges.

    First Quarter 2024 Conference Call and Webcast
    The Company has scheduled a conference call today at 5:00 p.m. ET.  During the conference call, Sima Sistani, Chief Executive Officer, and Heather Stark, Chief Financial Officer, will discuss the first quarter of fiscal 2024 results and answer questions from the investment community.

    The live webcast of the conference call will be available on the Company’s corporate website, corporate.ww.com, under Events and Presentations. Supplemental investor materials will also be available in the same location prior to the start of the webcast. A replay of the webcast will be available on this site for approximately 90 days.

    Statement regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
    The following provides information regarding non-GAAP financial measures used in this earnings release and today’s scheduled conference call:

    To supplement the Company's consolidated results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), the Company has disclosed non-GAAP financial measures of operating results that exclude or adjust certain items. Gross profit, gross margin, operating loss, operating loss margin and selling, general and administrative expenses are discussed both as reported (on a GAAP basis) and as adjusted (on a non-GAAP basis), as applicable, with respect to (i) the first quarter of fiscal 2024 to exclude (x) the impact of impairment charges for the Company's franchise rights acquired related to its United States, Australia, New Zealand and United Kingdom units of account and (y) the net impact of charges associated with the Company’s previously disclosed 2023 restructuring plan (the “2023 plan”) and the Company’s previously disclosed 2022 restructuring plan (the “2022 plan”); and (ii) the first quarter of fiscal 2023 to exclude (x) the net impact of (a) charges associated with the 2023 plan, (b) charges associated with the 2022 plan or the reversal of certain of the charges associated with the 2022 plan, as applicable, (c) the reversal of certain of the charges associated with the Company’s previously disclosed 2021 organizational restructuring plan (the “2021 plan”), and (d) the reversal of certain of the charges associated with the Company’s previously disclosed 2020 organizational restructuring plan (the “2020 plan”); and (y) the impact of certain non-recurring transaction costs in connection with the acquisition of Sequence. The Company generally refers to such non-GAAP measures as excluding or adjusting for the impact of franchise rights acquired impairments, the net impact of restructuring charges, and the impact of acquisition transaction costs, as applicable. The Company also presents in the attachments to this release the non-GAAP financial measures: earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation (“EBITDAS”); earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, franchise rights acquired and goodwill impairments, net restructuring charges, and certain non-recurring transaction costs in connection with the acquisition of Sequence (“Adjusted EBITDAS”); total debt less unamortized deferred financing costs, unamortized debt discount and cash on hand (i.e., net debt); and a net debt/Adjusted EBITDAS ratio. In addition, the Company presents certain of its financial results on a constant currency basis in addition to GAAP results. Constant currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period. The Company calculates constant currency by calculating current-year results using prior-year foreign currency exchange rates. A reconciliation of the forward-looking full year EBITDAS outlook to net income cannot be provided without unreasonable effort because of the inherent difficulty of accurately forecasting the occurrence and financial impact of the various adjusting items necessary for such reconciliation that have not yet occurred, are out of the Company's control, or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to assess the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could have a material impact on its future GAAP financial results.

    Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information for its and investors' evaluation of the Company's business performance and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of the performance of the Company's business. While management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating the Company's business, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as similarly titled measures reported by other companies. See "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" attached to this release and reconciliations, if any, included elsewhere in this release for a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.
