NEW YORK (May 4, 2023) – WW International, Inc. (NASDAQ: WW) (“WeightWatchers,” “WW,” or the “Company”) today announced its results for the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

“Our progress so far in 2023, including our acquisition of Sequence, further increases my confidence that we will return to a growth trajectory,” said Sima Sistani, the Company’s CEO. “We expect to end 2023 with total subscribers approaching 3.6 million, including 3.5 million WeightWatchers subscribers. The last time the Company ended a year with flat or higher subscribers year-over-year was 2020, so this will be a notable achievement and testament to the work our teams are delivering in enhancing our product experience and acquisition channels.”

“I am thrilled that today we announced that Heather Stark has been appointed our Chief Financial Officer. Heather has served in the interim position since December 2022. She has successfully navigated our teams through the annual planning and budgeting process, our organizational and real estate restructuring, and notably, the acquisition of Sequence. Heather is an invaluable partner to me and I look forward to continuing to work with her in the CFO role,” continued Sistani.

“The Q1 outperformance in subscribers translated into above forecast revenue, and combined with greater cost discipline, flowed into adjusted operating income results ahead of our expectations,” said Heather Stark, the Company’s CFO. “We expect performance trends to improve through the year as we benefit from our data-informed approach to member acquisition, increased operating efficiency, and an enhanced member experience following upcoming launches in our product roadmap. With a leaner, more agile organization, we are improving our operating model to drive profitable growth.”

“I am honored to be taking on the Chief Financial Officer position at WeightWatchers,” continued Stark. “It is rare to work at a company that positively impacts the lives of millions in such a personal and important way. I look forward to being part of the next stage of the Company’s transformation and partnering with Sima and the leadership team to shape the future of our member experience, operating model, and financial trajectory.”

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) income, operating (loss) income 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 2023 to exclude the net impact of (a) charges associated with the Company’s previously disclosed 2023 restructuring plan (the “2023 plan”), (b) charges associated with the Company’s previously disclosed 2022 restructuring plan (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 (ii) the first quarter of fiscal 2022 to exclude (a) the net impact of (x) charges associated with the 2021 plan and (y) the reversal of certain of the charges associated with the 2020 plan or (b) the impact of charges associated with the 2021 plan. We generally refer to such non-GAAP measures as excluding or adjusting for the net impact of restructuring charges or the impact of restructuring charges, 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, and restructuring charges (including the net impact where applicable) (“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.

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 should not 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 entitled 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.
