Strategy to Accelerate Path to Profitability and Enhance Competitive Position

The Company also announced today that it is moving swiftly to streamline its business model, accelerate its path to profitability and ensure it is positioned to deliver profits and cash flow in a variety of demand environments, and return to positive earnings and cash flow in 2023 through the following initiatives:

1. Implementing a “One Brand” strategy: The Company will consolidate its streaming fitness and nutrition offerings into a single platform, Beachbody On Demand (BOD), and market its connected fitness bike under the Beachbody brand. This consolidation will increase the strength of BOD’s platform with the addition of Openfit products and talent to BOD’s already extensive on-demand library, enhance the Company’s value proposition to its customers and partners, and simplify its go-to-market strategy.

2. Enhancing marketing ROI: Building on the performance in the fourth quarter, the Company will target historically high-return media and narrow its focus to pursue only performance marketing opportunities that are immediately profitable and accretive to cash flow. Additionally, the Company will further leverage its coach micro-influencer network, which continues to serve as a competitive advantage that consistently delivers the most profitable and productive subscribers.

3. Improving lifecycle management: Leveraging its database of over 2.8 million subscriptions and insights from its data and analytics team, the Company has identified significant opportunities to increase lifetime value by reducing friction in the ecommerce purchasing funnel and maximizing the ROI on new content releases and nutritional supplements.

4. Increasing capital efficiency: As a result of the “One Brand” strategy and post-merger technology integration efforts completed in 2021, the Company reduced headcount by approximately 10% in the first quarter of 2022. Additionally, in conjunction with AlixPartners, the Company is undertaking a thorough review of its organization to further streamline operations and reduce its expense profile to match various demand environments.

2022 Financial Outlook ¹

As a result of the actions outlined above, during fiscal 2022, the Company expects to reduce its cash use from operating activities by approximately $110 million as compared to 2021 and meaningfully reduce its full year net loss and Adjusted EBITDA loss.

For the first quarter of 2022 the Company expects:

• Total revenue of $170 million to $180 million

• Adjusted EBITDA loss of $20 million to $25 million

¹ Net loss guidance is not reasonably available due to changes in matters that we cannot forecast at this time.

Adjusted EBITDA

In addition to our results determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, we believe the following non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA is useful in evaluating our operating performance.

We define and calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, depreciation and amortization, amortization of capitalized cloud computing implementation costs, amortization of content assets, interest expense, income taxes, equity-based compensation, net realizable value adjustment, transaction costs, restructuring gain, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, and other items that are not normal, recurring, operating expenses necessary to operate the Company’s business.

The presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation of our non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income (loss) can be found below:
