Insights

Solo Brands' Q4 and FY 2024 results reveal a company in serious financial distress. The most alarming disclosure is the "substantial doubt about ability to continue as a going concern" statement, which is essentially an accounting red flag indicating potential inability to meet obligations without significant changes.

Q4 revenue declined 13.2% to $143.5 million, with net losses of $58.2 million (40.6% of sales). The annual picture shows $180.2 million in losses on $454.6 million in revenue. Most concerning is the massive $277.3 million additional draw on their revolving credit facility after the reporting period, suggesting severe liquidity challenges.

The company's $12 million cash position (down from $19.8 million YoY) is dangerously low relative to their $152 million in debt obligations before the additional borrowing. This liquidity crunch explains the urgent implementation of a turnaround plan with "30+ value accretive initiatives" and engagement of external financial advisors.

While gross margins improved to 61.1% in Q4, this positive indicator is overshadowed by the broader operational failures. Solo Stove, their flagship segment representing 65% of total revenue, saw a 16.8% sales decline. The only bright spot is Chubbies with 12.2% Q4 growth, but at $24.2 million in quarterly revenue, it's insufficient to offset the core business decline.

The company faces a critical refinancing challenge with debt maturities in May 2026, but given the current trajectory, they may face covenant violations or liquidity issues well before then.

Solo Brands' strategic position has deteriorated significantly, necessitating what management describes as an "aggressive turnaround plan." The core issues appear structural rather than cyclical, with the flagship Solo Stove segment experiencing a 15.4% annual revenue decline attributed to "lack of significant new product launches." This suggests a fundamental innovation problem rather than temporary market conditions.

The appointment of an Interim CEO and now an Interim CMO (from the board) indicates organizational instability at the executive level precisely when steady leadership is most needed. The board's direct operational involvement through Ms. Vanzura's dual role suggests governance concerns about management's ability to execute the turnaround independently.

The company's multi-brand portfolio strategy now appears questionable. While diversification was likely intended as a growth driver, it has potentially diverted resources and focus from the core Solo Stove business. The bright spot is Chubbies with 10.9% annual growth and 14% segment EBITDA margins, demonstrating that parts of the portfolio remain viable.

The engagement of external financial advisors to review "every line item" indicates the board recognizes the severity of the situation. However, the lack of specific details about the 30+ initiatives raises questions about implementation feasibility. Turnarounds typically require focus on fewer, high-impact changes rather than numerous smaller ones.

Without substantial operational improvements and potential asset sales, Solo Brands faces existential challenges. Their financial trajectory suggests they may need to explore strategic alternatives beyond internal turnaround efforts, including potential divestitures or seeking acquisition by a stronger operator.

Consolidated Fourth Quarter 2024 Highlights Compared to Fourth Quarter 2023

  • Net sales decreased $21.8 million to $143.5 million, down 13.2%, driven by declines in both retail and direct to consumer (“DTC”) channels within the Solo Stove segment, partially offset by an increase in net sales in the Chubbies segment.
  • Gross profit of $87.8 million, or 61.1% of net sales, an increase of 280 basis points versus a year ago. Adjusted gross profit(2) of $87.6 million, or 61.0% of net sales, an increase of 170 basis points versus the prior year.
  • Operating expenses decreased $194.2 million to $143.0 million, down 57.6%, primarily driven by the reduction in restructuring, contract termination and impairment charges of $192.2 million in the current period.

Segment Fourth Quarter 2024 Highlights Compared to Fourth Quarter 2023

Consolidated Full Year 2024 Highlights Compared to Full Year 2023

  • Net sales decreased $40.2 million to $454.6 million, down 8.1%, driven by declines in both retail and DTC channel net sales within the Solo Stove segment, partially offset by an increase in net sales in the Chubbies segment.

Segment Full Year 2024 Highlights Compared to Full Year 2023

Chubbies

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We report our financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”); however, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide users of our financial information with useful supplemental information that enables a better comparison of our performance across periods. We use adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit margin, free cash flow, adjusted net income, adjusted net income (loss) per Class A common stock, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin non-GAAP financial measures, because we believe they are useful indicators of our operating performance. Our management uses these non-GAAP measures principally as measures of our operating performance, and in the case of free cash flow of our liquidity, and believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful to our investors because they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of the operating performance and liquidity of companies in industries similar to ours. Our management also uses these non-GAAP measures for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and financial projections.

None of these non-GAAP measures is a measurement of financial performance under U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for a measure of our liquidity or operating performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and are not indicative of net income (loss) as determined under U.S. GAAP. In addition, the exclusion of certain gains or losses in the calculation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that these items are unusual or infrequent as they may recur in the future, nor should it be construed that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations that should be considered before using these measures to evaluate our liquidity or financial performance. Some of these limitations are as follows.

These non-GAAP measures exclude certain tax payments that may require a reduction in cash available to us; do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures (including capitalized software developmental costs) or contractual commitments; do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; do not reflect the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt; exclude certain purchase accounting adjustments related to acquisitions; and exclude equity-based compensation expense, which has recently been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense for our business and an important part of our compensation strategy.

In addition, other companies may define and calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP financial measures differently than us, thereby limiting the usefulness of these non-GAAP financial measures as a comparative tool. Because of these and other limitations, you should consider our non-GAAP measures only as supplemental to other U.S. GAAP-based financial performance measures.

Free Cash Flow

We calculate free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, reduced by capital expenditures (consisting of purchases of property and equipment, purchases of intangible assets and capitalization of internal use software). We believe free cash flow is an important liquidity measure of the cash that is available for operational expenses, investments in our business, strategic acquisitions, and for certain other activities such as repaying debt obligations.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow

Adjusted free cash flow is defined as free cash flow eliminating the cash impact of the following costs that are believed by management to be non-operating in nature and not representative of the Company’s core operating performance, as listed below under “Non-GAAP Adjustments”: business optimization and expansion expense, management transition costs, transaction costs, sales tax audit expense, tax refunds, prepaid marketing charges (in the period in which cash outflows occurred) and payments of contingent consideration included in net cash provided by (used in) operating activities. We believe that adjusted free cash flow enhances investors’ understanding of the liquidity of our ongoing operations. Our definition of adjusted free cash flow may differ from those used by other companies.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss)

We calculate adjusted net income as net income (loss) excluding impairment charges and the costs that are believed by management to be non-operating in nature and not representative of the Company’s core operating performance, as listed below under “Non-GAAP Adjustments”. Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests is calculated as income (loss) before income taxes, adjusted in the same manner as adjusted net income, adjusted for the allocable attribution to the noncontrolling interest.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Class A Common Stock

We calculate adjusted net income (loss) per Class A common stock as adjusted net income, as defined above, less the allocable portion of net income to the noncontrolling interest, divided by weighted average diluted shares or weighted average shares of Class A common stock, respectively, as calculated under U.S. GAAP.

Beginning with the reporting of our results for the three and twelve month periods ended December 31, 2023, adjusted net income (loss) per Class A Common Stock removes the portion of adjusted net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests as management believes this presentation provides investors with a more concise view of the Company’s results. The Company intends to present adjusted net income (loss) per Class A Common Stock on this basis going forward and has presented prior periods on the same basis for comparability purposes.

EBITDA

We calculate EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA

We calculate adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses, impairment charges, equity-based compensation expense, and the costs that are believed by management to be non-operating in nature and not representative of the Company’s core operating performance, as listed below under “Non-GAAP Adjustments”.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin

We calculate adjusted EBITDA margin as adjusted EBITDA, divided by net sales.

Adjusted Gross Profit

We calculate adjusted gross profit as gross profit, less inventory charges associated with restructuring and consolidation activities, inventory fair value write-ups and tooling depreciation.

Adjusted Gross Profit Margin

We calculate adjusted gross profit margin as adjusted gross profit, divided by net sales.

Non-GAAP Adjustments

In addition to the costs specifically noted under the non-GAAP metrics above, the Company believes that evaluation of its financial performance can be enhanced by a supplemental presentation of results that exclude costs believed by management to be non-operating in nature and not representative of the Company’s core operating performance. These costs are excluded in order to enhance consistency and comparability with results in prior periods that do not include such items and to provide a basis for evaluating operating results in future periods.

  • Restructuring, contract termination, impairment and related charges - Represents contract termination, impairment and restructuring charges related to the termination of underperforming marketing contracts, reorganization of the Oru and ISLE reporting units of the Company under a revised management structure, and charges related to the IcyBreeze reporting unit and the related inventory charges associated with the restructuring and consolidation activities, as well as the goodwill impairment charges related to the Solo Stove reporting unit driven by the sustained decline in share price.
  • Amortization expense - Represents the non-cash amortization of intangible assets related to the reorganization transactions in 2020 and the 2021 and 2023 acquisitions and additions to patents in regard to their defense.

  • Changes in fair value of contingent earn-out liability - Represents the charge to mark the contingent earn-out consideration to fair value in connection with the 2023 acquisitions.
  • Management transition costs - Represents costs primarily related to executive transition costs for executive search fees and related costs for the transition of certain members of management, such as severance costs.
  • Transaction costs - Represents transaction costs primarily related to professional service fees incurred in connection with the secondary offering, Form S-3 registration statement filed in 2023 and acquisition activities, including financial diligence and legal fees.
  • Prepaid marketing charges - Represents the write-off of marketing campaigns that were determined to be inconsistent with current marketing strategies.
  • Inventory fair value write-ups - Represents the recognition of fair market value write-ups of inventory accounted for under ASC 805 related to the 2023 acquisitions.

  • Tooling depreciation - Represents the depreciation applicable to the tooling used in the manufacturing process that is recognized within cost of goods sold.
  • Tax impact of adjusting items - Represents the tax impact of the respective adjustments for each non-GAAP financial measure calculated at an expected statutory rate of 21.0%, adjusted to reflect the allocation to the controlling interest.
  • Removal of valuation allowance - Represents the removal of the valuation allowance recorded within the period, as determined through revision of the current period tax provision to reflect the Non-GAAP Adjustments to income (loss) before income taxes.
