Positive

• Net sales for Q3 2022 increased 50.4% to CHF 328.0 million.
• Nine-month net sales reached CHF 855.4 million, a 60.3% increase.
• Asia-Pacific net sales surged 85.2%, while North America grew 57.1%.

Negative

• Gross profit margin decreased to 57.1% from 60.2% year-over-year.
• Adjusted EBITDA margin dropped to 17.2% from 17.4%.

• On reports strong results for the first nine months of 2022, reaching CHF 855.4 million in net sales YTD. Q3 2022 net sales increased by 50.4%, driven by strong wholesale growth of 55.6% and DTC growth of 40.7%, as well as exceptional growth of 85.2% in the Asia-Pacific region and continued strong demand in On's North America region, growing at 57.1%.

• Q3 2022 was the strongest quarter in history, as On records Q3 2022 net sales of CHF 328.0 million. Despite an uncertain macroeconomic environment, foreign exchange headwinds, and temporary supply chain constraints, net income and adjusted EBITDA reached CHF 20.6 million and CHF 56.3 million, respectively.

• On delivers a third quarter 2022 gross profit margin of 57.1%, down from 60.2% in the prior year period and up from 55.1% in the second quarter 2022, reflecting unfavorable foreign exchange rates and continued, yet reduced, transitory headwinds from a higher airfreight share.

• On is monitoring the macroeconomic developments and potential changes in consumer demand with caution. However, based on the outstanding performance of the first three quarters of 2022 and strong order books for Q4, On is raising its previous guidance by CHF 25 million and now expects net sales of CHF 1.125 billion and an increased adjusted EBITDA of CHF 148 million for the full year 2022. Guidance for the full year adjusted EBITDA margin remains unchanged at 13.2%.

• On is continuing to create innovative products to unleash the full potential of the world's best athletes. In the third quarter, On Athlete Gustav Iden won the men's Ironman World Championship in Hawaii with a new overall course record, as well as running a course record marathon. In addition, On is continuing its great efforts in the sustainability field and is pioneering the footwear industry by presenting the first-ever shoe made out of carbon emissions.

The strong nine-month results and the strong order books for Q4 and beyond give us a lot of confidence going into the last months of the year and into 2023, putting us in a position to again increase our net sales outlook for the full year 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS, adjusted diluted EPS and net working capital are non-IFRS measures used by us to evaluate our performance. Furthermore, we believe adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS, adjusted diluted EPS and net working capital enhance investors understanding of our financial and operating performance from period to period because they exclude certain material items related to share-based compensation and other costs which are not reflective of our ongoing operations and performance. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS, adjusted diluted EPS and net working capital should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS. For a detailed description and a reconciliation to the nearest IFRS measure, see the section below titled “Non-IFRS Measures”.

Outlook

On has had a very successful first nine months of 2022, achieving three consecutive net sales records in the respective quarters. The continued success of the On brand has been driven by continuously increasing brand awareness around the globe, and numerous successful and innovative product launches. Based on all indications available, including the order book for the remainder of the year and into 2023, On expects to continue to drive significant growth despite the current macroeconomic environment.

Following transitory supply shortages as a result of factory closures in 2021, particularly impacting the first half of the year 2022, On goes into the fourth quarter with a strong inventory position and expects the use of air freight to be at a fully normalized level in the final months of the year. While On expects continued margin pressure from the combination of a strong USD and weak EUR compared to its reporting currency CHF, the current demand puts On in a strong position to further increase absolute and relative profitability.

For the year ending December 31, 2022, On is again increasing its net sales outlook by CHF 25 million, to CHF 1.125 billion, representing a year-over-year growth of approximately 55% compared to 2021. Despite the pressures on margin described above, On is raising its adjusted EBITDA target for the full year to CHF 148 million and reiterating the target adjusted EBITDA margin of 13.2%.

Other than with respect to IFRS net-sales, On only provides guidance on a non-IFRS basis. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA to IFRS net income due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. As a result, we are not able to forecast with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide a reconciliation to net income. The above outlook is based on current market conditions and reflects the Company’s current and preliminary estimates of market and operating conditions and customer demand, which are all subject to change. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of risks and uncertainties, including those stated below.

Non-IFRS Measures

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS, adjusted diluted EPS and net working capital are financial measures that are not defined under IFRS. We use these non-IFRS measures when evaluating our performance, including when making financial and operating decisions, and as a key component in the determination of variable incentive compensation for employees. Additionally, we believe these non-IFRS measures enhance an investor’s understanding of our financial and operating performance from period to period, because certain measures, such as adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, exclude certain material items relating to share-based compensation and other costs which are not reflective of our ongoing operations and performance. In particular, we believe adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income and net working capital are measures commonly used by investors to evaluate companies in the sportswear industry.

However, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS, adjusted diluted EPS or net working capital should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS and may not be comparable to similarly titled non-IFRS measures used by other companies. For more information on these non-IFRS measures, please see the section captioned "Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures" included in the accompanying financial tables, which includes more detail on the IFRS measure that is most directly comparable to each non-IFRS measure, and the related reconciliations between these measures.

As noted above, we do not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA to IFRS net income due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. The amount of these deductions may be material and, therefore, could result in projected net income being materially less than projected adjusted EBITDA. These statements represent forward-looking information and may represent a financial outlook, and actual results may vary. Please see the risks and assumptions referred to in the Forward-Looking Statements section of this news release.

Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Basic EPS and Adjusted Diluted EPS

We use adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS and adjusted diluted EPS as measures of operating performance in conjunction with related IFRS measures.

Adjusted basic EPS is used in conjunction with other non-IFRS measures and excludes certain items (as listed below) from the calculation in order to increase comparability of the metric from period to period, which we believe makes it useful for management, our audit committee and investors to assess our financial performance over time.

Diluted earnings per share (EPS) is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period on a fully diluted basis. For the purpose of operational performance measurement, we calculate adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS and adjusted diluted EPS in a manner that fully excludes the impact of any costs related to share-based compensation and other costs which are not reflective of our ongoing operations and performance and includes the tax effect on the tax deductible portion of the non-IFRS adjustments.

Net Working Capital

Net working capital is a financial measure that is not defined under IFRS. We use, and believe that certain investors and analysts, use this information to assess liquidity and management use of net working capital resources. We define net working capital as trade receivables, plus inventories, minus trade payables. This measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any standardized measure under IFRS.

Other companies in our industry may calculate this measure differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
