Insights

The Beauty Health Company's financial results for the full year and fourth quarter of 2023 indicate a mixed performance, with a year-over-year growth of 8.8% in net sales but a decline in fourth-quarter sales by 1.3%. The global expansion, particularly in the Asia-Pacific and Europe, the Middle East and Africa regions, signifies a strategic shift towards international markets, potentially diversifying the company's revenue streams and reducing reliance on the Americas. However, the decrease in equipment sales in the Americas raises concerns about market saturation or competitive pressures in the region.

The gross margin contraction from 68.0% in 2022 to 39.0% in 2023, alongside a significant net loss of $100.1 million compared to the previous year's net income, suggests operational challenges. The company's financial health is further underscored by a reduction in cash and cash equivalents and share repurchases, which may impact liquidity. Investors should consider the company's long-term strategy to address margin pressures and the sustainability of its growth in international markets.

BeautyHealth's adjusted EBITDA shows a concerning decrease, dropping from $46.1 million in 2022 to $24.3 million in 2023, which indicates underlying operational issues affecting profitability. The inventory write-downs and charges associated with the Syndeo Program are of particular note, as they significantly impacted gross margins. The share repurchase authorization and subsequent buybacks reflect a potential confidence by management in the intrinsic value of the company, yet they also represent a cash outflow during a time of net losses.

Investors should scrutinize the company's ability to manage costs and improve margins in the coming fiscal year. The forward guidance suggests a conservative outlook with flat to low-single digit percentage growth in net sales and an adjusted EBITDA of over $40 million, which if achieved, could signal a turnaround in operational efficiency.

It is important to note the use of non-GAAP financial measures such as adjusted gross profit and adjusted EBITDA. While these measures can provide additional insights into the company's operational performance, they are not standardized across the industry and may exclude significant expenses that are important for a complete understanding of financial health. Investors should consider these adjustments critically and examine how these measures compare to GAAP results to gain a full picture of the company's performance.

Moreover, the mention of immaterial revisions to financial statements could warrant attention, as it suggests potential inaccuracies in past reporting. Although characterized as immaterial, any revisions to financial statements could impact investor trust and warrant a closer look to ensure that the financial controls and reporting mechanisms are robust and transparent.

Delivers net sales of $398 million for the full year and $96.8 million for the fourth quarter driven by growth across international markets

LONG BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The Beauty Health Company (NASDAQ: SKIN) (“BeautyHealth”), home to flagship brand Hydrafacial, today announced financial results for the full year and fourth quarter ended December 31, 2023. Full year net sales of $398.0 million increased 8.8% relative to 2022, with fourth quarter net sales of $96.8 million decreasing (1.3)% year-over-year. Fourth quarter results reflect lower equipment sales in the Americas, substantially offset by steady growth in Americas consumables net sales and strong device placement in Asia-Pacific.

"To close 2023, we delivered fourth quarter financial results consistent with the expectations we outlined on our last earnings call,” said BeautyHealth Chief Executive Officer Marla Beck. “While the results reflect a necessary operational reset, the underlying strength of our business remains—a clinically proven treatment, passionate provider community, unique partner portfolio, beloved consumer brand, and growing addressable market. I am confident in the still-untapped global opportunity for BeautyHealth.”

Fourth Quarter Financial Highlights

  • Net sales were $96.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, a decrease of (1.3)% compared to the prior year period, with challenges in the Americas largely offset by growth in APAC and EMEA.
  • Gross margin was 47.2% in Q4 2023 compared to 67.8% in Q4 2022. Adjusted gross margin was 54.6% in Q4 2023 compared to 73.6% in Q4 2022. Gross margin and adjusted gross margin were adversely impacted by higher inventory related charges and higher product and warranty costs.
  • Net loss was $(9.4) million in Q4 2023 compared to net income of $6.5 million in Q4 2022. The change compared to the prior year was primarily due to gross margin pressures.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $3.4 million in Q4 2023 compared to adjusted EBITDA of $17.6 million in Q4 2022, primarily due to gross margin pressures.
  • The Company placed 1,551 delivery systems during the quarter compared to 2,067 in the prior year period; challenges in the Americas and EMEA were partially offset by growth in APAC.

Full Year Financial Highlights

  • Net sales were $398.0 million for 2023, an increase of 8.8% compared to the prior year period due to growth in APAC and EMEA.
  • Gross margin was 39.0% in 2023 compared to 68.0% in 2022. Gross margin was adversely impacted by a $65.2 million of inventory write-downs and charges associated with the Syndeo Program, higher inventory related charges, and higher product costs. Adjusted gross margin was 62.8% in 2023 compared to 72.6% in 2022, due to the aforementioned factors, excluding the Syndeo Program.
  • Net loss was $(100.1) million in 2023 compared to net income of $44.2 million in 2022. The change compared to the prior year was primarily due to gross margin pressures and the $78.3 million benefit from the change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the prior year.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $24.3 million in 2023 compared to adjusted EBITDA of $46.1 million in 2022, primarily due to gross margin pressures.
  • The Company placed 8,287 delivery systems in 2023 compared to 8,492 in the prior year, primarily due to challenges in the Americas nearly offset by strength across APAC and EMEA.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights

  • Cash and cash equivalents were approximately $523.0 million as of December 31, 2023 compared to approximately $568.2 million as of December 31, 2022. The change was primarily due to share re-purchases made during Q3 and Q4 2023 and strategic acquisitions made during Q1 2023, partially offset by the net impact of the current year net loss and other non-cash adjustments.
  • The Company had approximately 7 million private placement warrants and approximately 122.9 million shares of Class A common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2023. In September 2023, the Company announced a $100.0 million share repurchase authorization. As of December 31, 2023, the Company repurchased and retired 10.4 million shares for $30.2 million, excluding taxes.
  • In January 2024, the Company redeemed $75.0 million principal amount of our Notes at a weighted-average redemption price equal to 77% for $57.8 million.

Conference Call

BeautyHealth will host a conference call on Tuesday, March 12, 2024, at 4:30 p.m. ET to review its fourth quarter and full year 2023 financial results. The call may be accessed via live webcast through the Events & Presentations page on our Investor Relations website at https://investors.beautyhealth.com. A replay of the conference call will be available approximately three hours after the conclusion of the call and can be accessed online at https://investors.beautyhealth.com.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to results determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), management utilizes certain non-GAAP financial measures such as adjusted gross profit and adjusted EBITDA for purposes of evaluating ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes.

Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when reviewed collectively with the Company’s GAAP financial information, provide useful supplemental information to investors in assessing the Company's operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP financial information or as an indication of operating performance or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP, and may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in its industry, as these other companies may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently, particularly related to unusual items.

Adjusted gross profit is gross profit excluding the effects of depreciation expense, amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense and other items such as write-off of discontinued, excess and obsolete product, Syndeo Program and Syndeo product optimization logistics & service costs.

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net (loss) income excluding the effects of expense (benefit) for income taxes; depreciation expense; amortization expense; stock-based compensation expense; interest expense; interest income; other expense (income), net; change in fair value of warrant liability; foreign currency (gain) loss, net; loss on disposal of assets; transaction related costs; write-off of discontinued, excess and obsolete product; litigation related costs; Syndeo Program; Syndeo product optimization logistics and service costs; and severance, restructuring and other.

The Company does not provide a reconciliation of its fiscal 2023 adjusted EBITDA margin guidance to net (loss) income, the most directly comparable forward looking GAAP financial measures, due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, which cannot be done without unreasonable efforts, including adjustments that could be made for changes in fair value of warrant liabilities, integration and acquisition-related expenses, amortization expenses, non-cash stock-based compensation, gains/losses on foreign currency, and other charges reflected in our reconciliation of historic numbers, the amount of which, based on historical experience, could be significant. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company's fiscal 2023 adjusted EBITDA margin guidance is merely an outlook and is not a guarantee of future performance. Stockholders should not rely or place an undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. See “Forward-Looking Statements” for additional information.
