Beachbody (BODi) Announces Q2 2024 Results: Revenue Surpasses Midpoint of Guidance, Net Loss and Adjusted EBITDA Better Than Guidance

Author's Avatar
Aug 06, 2024

The Beachbody Company, Inc. (NYSE: BODi) (“BODi” or the “Company”), a leading fitness and nutrition company, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Carl Daikeler, BODi's Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, commented:

"Our focus is on returning to growth, particularly by focusing on the $164 billion nutrition market, which presents an opportunity more than 12 times larger than the $13 billion fitness market. Nutrition was once an $800 million product line for us, more than double our fitness offerings at the time."

"We are implementing multiple new strategies to recapture a significant portion of the vast nutrition market opportunity which is characterized by consistent growth. This is a market that the Company knows extremely well. BODi has had a meaningful presence in the nutrition market dating back 20 years, and runs this business with very high gross margins."

"In parallel, we have significantly improved our operations and efficiency, reducing our revenue breakeven point1 by more than 40% from over $900 million to under $500 million. This positions us well to generate sustainable cash flows as we execute our growth initiatives, with a key focus on the nutrition business."

The Beachbody Company, Inc.
Adjusted EBITDA

We use Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP performance measure, to supplement our results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful in evaluating our operating performance, as it is similar to measures reported by our public competitors and is regularly used by security analysts, institutional investors, and other interested parties in analyzing operating performance and prospects. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a substitute for any GAAP financial measure and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of performance of other companies in other industries or within the same industry.

We define and calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for depreciation and amortization, amortization of capitalized cloud computing implementation costs, amortization of content assets, interest expense, income taxes, equity-based compensation, and other items that are not normal, recurring, operating expenses necessary to operate the Company’s business as described in the reconciliation below.

We include this non-GAAP financial measure because it is used by management to evaluate BODi’s core operating performance and trends and to make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital and new investments. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain expenses that are required in accordance with GAAP because they are non-cash (for example, in the case of depreciation and amortization and equity-based compensation) or are not related to our underlying business performance (for example, in the case of restructuring costs, interest income and expense).

The table below presents our Adjusted EBITDA reconciled to our net loss, the closest GAAP measure, for the periods indicated:

2 The non-cash charge for employee incentives which were expected to be settled in equity was recorded and included in the Adjusted EBITDA calculation during the year ended December 31, 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we reclassified the non-cash charge from employee incentives expected to be settled in equity to equity-based compensation because we settled certain employee incentives with RSU awards during the period.
3 Includes restructuring expense and personnel costs associated with the Company's key initiatives during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and with executing our key growth priorities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
4 Primarily includes interest income.

Net Cash Position and Free Cash Flow

Net Cash Position

We use net cash position, which is a non-GAAP liquidity measure, to supplement our liquidity as presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that net cash position is useful in viewing our liquidity, as it is similar to measures reported by our public competitors and is regularly used by security analysts, institutional investors, and other interested parties in analyzing liquidity. Net cash position is not intended to be a substitute for GAAP financial measures and, as calculated may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of liquidity for other companies in other industries or within the same industry.
