NEW YORK, Nov. 03, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — WW International, Inc. (NASDAQ: WW) (“WeightWatchers,” “WW,” or “the Company”) today announced its results for the third quarter of fiscal 2022.

“We are encouraged by early indicators that our data-informed approach to product development – focused on our core pillars of community, accountability, and coaching – is starting to yield positive results,” said Sima Sistani, the Company’s CEO. “With nearly 60 years of weight loss efficacy and a community of millions, we have a strong foundation on which to build a digital experience for the future.”

Amy O’Keefe, the Company’s CFO, said, “Adjusted operating income in Q3 was ahead of our expectations, despite continued pressure on revenue from lower subscriber levels year-over-year and headwinds from foreign exchange. We are confident that we are taking appropriate actions to manage costs in this environment and we continue to generate strong cash flow from our subscription model.”

Q3 2022 Business and Financial Highlights

  • End of Period Subscribers in Q3 2022 were down 15.0% versus the prior year period, primarily driven by declines in the Digital business in all geographic markets. Q3 2022 End of Period Digital Subscribers decreased 17.7% versus the prior year period. Q3 2022 End of Period Workshops + Digital Subscribers decreased 2.0% versus the prior year period, substantially benefitting from the transition of former Digital 360 members from the Digital business to the Workshops + Digital business during Q2 and Q3 2022, as previously disclosed.
  • Total Paid Weeks in Q3 2022 were down 13.6% versus the prior year period, driven by declines in the Digital business in all geographic markets. Q3 2022 Digital Paid Weeks decreased 17.3% versus the prior year period. Q3 2022 Workshops + Digital Paid Weeks increased 5.6% versus the prior year period, substantially benefitting from the transition of former Digital 360 members from the Digital business to the Workshops + Digital business during Q2 and Q3 2022, as previously disclosed.
  • Revenues in Q3 2022 were $249.7 million. On a constant currency basis, Q3 2022 revenues decreased 10.7% versus the prior year period.
    • Subscription Revenues in Q3 2022 were $220.7 million. On a constant currency basis, these revenues decreased 11.6% versus the prior year period.
    • Product Sales and Other in Q3 2022 were $29.0 million. On a constant currency basis, these revenues decreased 2.8% versus the prior year period.
  • Gross Profit in Q3 2022 was $152.4 million, compared to $178.0 million in the prior year period. Adjusted gross profit in Q3 2022, which excluded the net impact of $0.0 million of restructuring charges, was $152.4 million. Adjusted gross profit in Q3 2021, which excluded the net impact of $4.9 million of restructuring charges, was $183.0 million.
    • Gross Margin in Q3 2022 was 61.0%, as compared to 60.7% in the prior year period. Adjusted gross margin in Q3 2022 was 61.0%, down 130 basis points from an adjusted gross margin of 62.3% in the prior year period, primarily driven by a mix shift to the Workshops + Digital business as well as a 50 basis point negative impact from foreign currency.
  • Non-Cash Intangible Impairment Charges: During Q3 2022, the Company identified several factors, including business performance, market capitalization, and interest rates, that indicated a triggering event for impairment testing. In Q3 2022, the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges of Franchise Rights Acquired totaling $312.7 million that included charges of $298.3 million, $13.3 million, and $1.1 million related to its U.S., Canada and New Zealand operations, respectively. The impairment charges were almost entirely driven by an increase in the Company’s weighted-average cost of capital, reflecting market factors including higher interest rates and the trading values of the Company’s equity and debt.
  • Operating Loss in Q3 2022 was $254.5 million, compared to operating income of $79.7 million in the prior year period. Adjusted operating income in Q3 2022, which excluded the impact of non-cash intangible impairment charges totaling $312.7 million and the net impact of $3.7 million of restructuring charges, was $61.9 million, down 30.0% versus adjusted operating income in the prior year period.

    • Certain items affect year-over-year comparability.
      • Q3 2022 Diluted Net Loss per share incorporated the negative impact of $3.38 per diluted share in the aggregate due to the following items:
        • $3.34 per diluted share negative impact of non-cash intangible impairment charges for Franchise Rights Acquired.
        • $0.04 per diluted share negative net impact of restructuring charges.
      • Q3 2021 EPS was negatively impacted by $0.07 per fully diluted share in the aggregate due to the following items:
        • $0.09 per fully diluted share negative net impact of restructuring charges.
        • $0.02 per fully diluted share tax benefit due to the reversal of a valuation allowance related to certain net operating losses now expected to be realized.

Other Items

  • Cash balance as of October 1, 2022 was $188.3 million. On that same date, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under its $175.0 million revolving credit facility.
  • 2022 Restructuring Plan: In connection with its previously announced 2022 restructuring plan, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $3.6 million in Q3 2022. The Company expects to record $10 million of restructuring charges in Q4 2022, increasing its full year estimate of restructuring charges to $33 million, up from its prior estimate of $27 million. The Company now expects annual run-rate savings to be $40 million, up from its prior estimate of over $35 million. In-year fiscal 2022 run-rate savings are expected to approach $20 million, consistent with the prior estimate.

Full Year Fiscal 2022 Guidance

The Company is revising its full year fiscal 2022 guidance, as follows:

  • Revenues are expected to be approximately $1.04 billion, reflecting greater pressure from foreign currency and lower subscriber levels. Prior revenue guidance was in the range of $1.05 billion to $1.09 billion.
  • GAAP diluted net loss per share expected to be in the range of ($3.16) to ($3.21), which incorporates a negative net impact of approximately $3.94 per diluted share from the Franchise Rights Acquired and Goodwill impairment charges described above or previously disclosed, estimated restructuring charges, and the benefit from Q2 2022 out-of-period income tax adjustments. Prior GAAP EPS guidance was in the range of $0.25 to $0.30 per fully diluted share, which incorporated the negative impact of approximately $0.55 per fully diluted share of estimated charges and the benefit from out-of-period income tax adjustments recorded in Q2 2022.

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 profit 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 third quarter of fiscal 2022 to exclude (a) the impact of the impairment charges for our franchise rights acquired related to our United States, Canada and New Zealand units of account and (b) the net impact of (x) charges associated with our previously disclosed 2022 restructuring plan (the “2022 plan”) and (y) charges associated with our previously disclosed 2021 organizational restructuring plan (the “2021 plan”); (ii) the first nine months of fiscal 2022 to exclude (a) the impact of impairment charges for our franchise rights acquired related to our United States, Canada and New Zealand units of account and the impairment charge for our goodwill related to our wholly-owned subsidiary Kurbo, Inc. (“Kurbo”) and (b) the net impact of (x) charges associated with the 2022 plan, (y) charges associated with the 2021 plan or the reversal of certain of the charges associated with the 2021 plan, as applicable, and (z) the reversal of certain of the charges associated with our previously disclosed 2020 organizational restructuring plan (the “2020 plan”); and (iii) the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2021 to exclude 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. We generally refer to such non-GAAP measures as follows: (i) with respect to the adjustments for the third quarter of fiscal 2022, as excluding or adjusting for the impact of the franchise rights acquired impairments (or non-cash intangible impairment charges) and the net impact of restructuring charges; (ii) with respect to the adjustments for the first nine months of fiscal 2022, as excluding or adjusting for the impact of franchise rights acquired and goodwill impairments (or non-cash intangible impairment charges) and the net impact of restructuring charges; and (iii) with respect to the adjustments for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2021, as excluding or adjusting for the net impact of restructuring charges. 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 early extinguishment of debt with respect to the Company’s previously disclosed April 2021 debt refinancing and voluntary debt prepayments (“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.
