Balance Sheet Highlights

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $186.4 million of cash and cash equivalents, compared to $11.0 million as of December 31, 2020. Inventory at the end of fiscal 2021 was $98.4 million, compared to $33.6 million at the end of fiscal 2020. The Company is pleased with the level and composition of its inventory and believes it is well positioned to meet demand. Long-term debt, net of current portion, was $738.1 million compared to $755.4 million as of the end of fiscal 2020.

Subsequent to Year-end

On February 23, 2022, the Company completed a successful refinancing of its existing secured credit facility with a new credit agreement comprised of a $675 million senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan”) and a $150 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”). At closing, the proceeds of the Term Loan were used to refinance all of the term loans outstanding under the existing credit agreement and to pay the fees and expenses of the transaction. The new Revolving Facility remains undrawn at March 8, 2022. This refinancing reduces outstanding term loan debt from $769 million as of December 31, 2021 to $675 million as of the closing of the refinancing and lowers the current interest rate by 300bps, generating significant interest expense savings.

Fiscal Year 2022 Guidance
The Company is introducing guidance for Fiscal Year 2022 that reflects anticipated continued, broad based growth across channels, countries and products. The Company noted that its investment priorities remain consistent – doubling down on its disruptive sales and marketing model, increasing investment in R&D to support science-based innovation and further investing in the organization commensurate with the growth of the business, including costs related to becoming a public company.

For Fiscal Year 2022:

The Company cautions investors not to place considerable reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this press release. You are encouraged to read the Company’s filings with the SEC, available at www.sec.gov, for a discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties. The forward-looking statements in this press release speak only as of the date hereof, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any of these statements, except as required by applicable law. The Company’s business is subject to substantial risks and uncertainties, including those referenced above. Investors, potential investors, and others should give careful consideration to these risks and uncertainties.

Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the financial measures presented in this release in accordance with GAAP, the Company has included certain non-GAAP financial measures in this release, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit margin, adjusted SG&A and Adjusted diluted EPS. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with the Company’s financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operating performance and facilitates internal comparisons of its historical operating performance on a more consistent basis by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of its business, results of operations or outlook. In particular, management believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures is helpful to investors as they are measures used by management in assessing the health of the Company’s business, determining incentive compensation and evaluating its operating performance, as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes.

The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for the impact of certain additional non-cash and other items that management does not consider in its evaluation of ongoing performance of the Company’s core operations. These items include non capitalizable IPO and strategic transition costs, share-based compensation expense, tax receivable agreement liability adjustments, acquisition transaction costs and financing fees, and other one-time expenses. We calculate adjusted net income as net income, adjusted to exclude: (1) amortization of intangible assets (excluding software); (2) acquisition transaction costs and financing fees; (3) costs incurred for LIQWD Matters; (4) fair value inventory step-up adjustment amortization; (5) share-based compensation expense; (6) non-capitalizable IPO and strategic transition costs; (7) tax receivable agreement liability adjustment; and (8) tax effect of adjustments. The Company defines adjusted diluted EPS as adjusted net income divided by fully diluted shares outstanding. We calculate adjusted gross profit as gross profit, adjusted to exclude: (1) fair value inventory step-up adjustment amortization and (2) amortization of patented formulations, pertaining to the Acquisition. We calculate adjusted gross profit margin by dividing adjusted gross profit by net sales. We calculate adjusted SG&A as SG&A, adjusted to exclude: (1) share-based compensation expense; (2) costs incurred for LIQWD Matters; (3) non-capitalizable IPO; and strategic transition costs; and (4) financing fees.

Please refer to “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Equivalents” located in the financial supplement in this release for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP metrics to their most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP.

This release includes forward-looking guidance for adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income. The Company is not able to provide, without unreasonable effort, a reconciliation of the guidance for adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because the Company does not currently have sufficient data to accurately estimate the variables and individual adjustments included in the most directly comparable GAAP measure that would be necessary for such reconciliations, including (a) income tax related accruals given currently proposed legislative changes and other one-time items, (b) impacts to our Tax Receivable Agreement liability that would arise from proposed legislative changes, (c) costs related to potential debt or equity transactions, and (d) other nonrecurring expenses that cannot reasonably be estimated in advance. These adjustments are inherently variable and uncertain and depend on various factors that are beyond our control and as a result we are also unable to predict their probable significance. Therefore, because management cannot estimate on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort the impact these variables and individual adjustments will have on its reported results in accordance with GAAP, it is unable to provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures included in its 2022 guidance.
