    NEW YORK, March 06, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- WW International, Inc. (NASDAQ: WW) (“WeightWatchers,” “WW,” or the “Company”) today announced its results for the fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2022.

    “It has been nearly one year since I joined WeightWatchers - a time of significant transition, rationalization, and bold moves throughout the organization. We ended 2022 with 3.5 million subscribers, ahead of our guidance, improving our position as we started the year,” said Sima Sistani, the Company’s CEO. “Our member engagement and satisfaction metrics are up, demonstrating that our initiatives to improve the experience and brand are having a positive impact. We expect performance trends to improve throughout the year as we benefit from our data-informed approach to member acquisition, increased efficiency from streamlined operations, and new product features to enhance the member experience. We look forward to upcoming launches focused on creating community, supporting members, and enabling key behaviors, as well as our entry into clinical weight management.”

    “Our efforts to streamline and centralize our operations are reading through into an improved cost basis for our business. We are confident that we will have the appropriate cost structure in place, along with ample liquidity, to support our product roadmap and our entrance into clinical weight management,” said Heather Stark, the Company’s Interim Principal Financial Officer. “While member signups are down year-over-year so far in 2023, that is a result of intentionally shifting a portion of our annual marketing spend from winter into the fall as we look to focus our spend alongside our digital product launches in the second half of the year, and ultimately return the Company to growth.”

    Q4 2022 Business and Financial Highlights

    • End of Period Subscribers in Q4 2022 were down 14.9% versus the prior year period, primarily driven by declines in the Digital business in all geographic markets. Q4 2022 End of Period Digital Subscribers decreased 17.6% versus the prior year period. Q4 2022 End of Period Workshops + Digital Subscribers decreased 2.3% 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 Q4 2022 were down 15.3% versus the prior year period, driven by declines in the Digital business in all geographic markets. Q4 2022 Digital Paid Weeks decreased 17.5% versus the prior year period. Q4 2022 Workshops + Digital Paid Weeks decreased 5.5% 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 Q4 2022 were $223.9 million. On a constant currency basis, Q4 2022 revenues decreased 15.5% versus the prior year period.

      • Subscription Revenues in Q4 2022 were $200.9 million. On a constant currency basis, these revenues decreased 15.6% versus the prior year period.

      • Product Sales and Other in Q4 2022 were $23.0 million. On a constant currency basis, these revenues decreased 14.1% versus the prior year period.

    • Gross Profit in Q4 2022 was $127.0 million, compared to $168.9 million in the prior year period. Adjusted gross profit in Q4 2022, which excluded the net impact of $3.1 million of restructuring charges, was $130.1 million.

      • Gross Margin in Q4 2022 was 56.7%, as compared to 61.2% in the prior year period. Adjusted gross margin in Q4 2022 was 58.1%, down 320 basis points from an adjusted gross margin of 61.3% in the prior year period, primarily driven by a mix shift to the Workshops + Digital business and fixed cost deleverage in our Workshops + Digital business as well as a 40 basis point negative impact from foreign currency.

    • Non-Cash Intangible Impairment Charges: During Q4 2022, the Company identified several factors, including business performance, market capitalization, and interest rates, that indicated a triggering event for impairment testing.   In Q4 2022, the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges of Franchise Rights Acquired and Goodwill totaling $57.6 million that included charges of $25.7 million, $19.7 million, $8.3 million, $2.0 million, and $1.8 million related to its U.S., Canada, U.K., Republic of Ireland (Goodwill only), and Australia operations, respectively. The impairment charges were primarily 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 Q4 2022 was $50.8 million, compared to operating income of $54.1 million in the prior year period. Adjusted operating income in Q4 2022, which excluded the impact of non-cash intangible impairment charges totaling $57.6 million and the net impact of $17.4 million of restructuring charges, was $24.2 million. Adjusted operating income in Q4 2021, which excluded the net impact of $0.6 million of restructuring charges, was $54.6 million.

    • Income Tax in Q4 2022 was a benefit of $38.9 million, which reflected a legal entity restructuring that resulted in a reversal of certain deferred tax liabilities, partially offset by a tax expense from a valuation allowance established to offset certain deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of realizing future tax benefits from interest expense carryforwards. In the prior year period, income tax expense was $3.3 million.

    • Net Loss in Q4 2022 was $32.5 million compared to net income of $29.9 million in the prior year period.

    • Diluted Net Loss per share in Q4 2022 was $0.46 compared to earnings per fully diluted share (EPS) of $0.42 in the prior year period.

      • Certain items affect year-over-year comparability.
        • Q4 2022 Diluted Net Loss per share incorporated the negative impact of $0.52 per diluted share in the aggregate due to the following items:
          • $0.63 per diluted share negative impact of non-cash intangible impairment charges for Franchise Rights Acquired and Goodwill.
          • $0.18 per diluted share negative net impact of restructuring charges.
          • $0.68 per diluted share positive tax impact of a legal entity restructuring that resulted in a reversal of certain deferred tax liabilities.
          • $0.38 per diluted share negative tax impact of establishing a valuation allowance to offset certain deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of realizing future tax benefits from interest expense carryforwards.
        • Q4 2021 EPS was positively impacted by $0.07 per fully diluted share in the aggregate due to the following items:
          • $0.09 per fully diluted share positive impact of a state tax decrease on certain deferred income.
          • $0.01 per fully diluted share net negative impact of restructuring charges.
          • $0.01 per fully diluted share negative impact of early extinguishment of debt charges.

    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 fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2022 to exclude (a) the impact of impairment charges for the Company's franchise rights acquired related to its United States, Canada, United Kingdom, New Zealand and Australia units of account and impairment charges for the Company's goodwill related to its Republic of Ireland reporting unit and its wholly-owned subsidiary Kurbo, Inc. and (b) the net impact of (w) charges associated with the Company's previously disclosed 2023 restructuring plan (the “2023 plan”), (x) charges associated with the Company's previously disclosed 2022 restructuring plan (the “2022 plan”), (y) charges associated with the Company's previously disclosed 2021 organizational restructuring plan (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 the Company's previously disclosed 2020 organizational restructuring plan (the “2020 plan”); and (ii) the fourth quarter and full year 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 fourth quarter and full year 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 (ii) with respect to the adjustments for the fourth quarter and full year 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.
