2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for reporting interim information on Form 10-Q. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. The Company's significant estimates relate to the valuation of financial instruments, equity method investments, the measurement of goodwill and intangible assets, contingent liabilities, income taxes, leases, and long-lived assets. Although the estimates have been prepared using management's best judgment and management believes that the estimates used are reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material.
We operate on a fiscal year calendar consisting of a 52-or 53-week period ending on the last Sunday in December or the first Sunday in January of the next calendar year. In a 52-week fiscal year, each quarter contains 13 weeks of operations; in a 53-week fiscal year, each of the first, second and third quarters includes 13 weeks of operations and the fourth quarter includes 14 weeks of operations.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by US GAAP. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary for the fair presentation of the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive loss, of changes in shareholders’ equity (deficit), and of cash flows for the periods presented. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.
The results of operations for the 13- and 26-week periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.
Going Concern
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The going concern basis of presentation assumes that we will continue in operation for at least a period of 12 months after the date these financial statements are issued, and contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
We have experienced net losses and significant cash outflows over the past years as we develop our Houses. During the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024, the Company incurred a consolidated net loss of $34 million and $81 million, respectively. During the 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024, the Company had net cash provided by operations of $45 million. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had an accumulated deficit balance of $1,440 million, cash and cash equivalents of $151 million, and a restricted cash balance of $3 million.
In assessing the going concern basis of preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024, we have taken into consideration detailed cash flow forecasts for the Company, the Company’s forecast compliance with bank covenants, and the timing of debt commitments within 12 months of the approval of these financial statements, and the continued availability of committed and accessible working capital to the Company.
We have considered current global economic and political uncertainties, specifically including inflationary pressures on consumables purchased and wages, and the Company has factored these in when it undertook an assessment of the cash flow forecasts covering a period of at least 12 months from the date these financial statements are issued. Cash flow forecasts have been prepared based on a range of scenarios including, but not limited to, no further debt or equity funding, repayment of existing short-term debt, macro-economic dynamics, cost reductions, both limited and extensive, and a combination of these different scenarios.
Based on the above, the consolidated financial statements have been presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, we continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024.

3.Consolidated Variable Interest Entities
The Company determined that it is the primary beneficiary of the following material variable interest entities (“VIEs”):
Ned-Soho House, LLP
The Ned-Soho House, LLP joint venture maintains a management agreement to operate The Ned hotel in London, which is owned by unconsolidated related parties to the Company (Refer to Note 16, Related Party Transactions for further information). Management fees are recognized in other revenues in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company has a greater economic interest in Ned-Soho House, LLP as compared to its related party venture partner and therefore the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary.
Soho Works Limited
The Soho Works Limited (“SWL”) joint venture develops and operates Soho-branded, membership-based co-working spaces, with four sites currently in operation in the UK. The joint venture agreement relates to the UK only. The joint venture was formed on September 29, 2017, when the Company granted to two unrelated individuals an option to subscribe for 30% of the issued shares of SWL. The option has not yet been exercised and, consequently, the Company has 100% economic interest in SWL. Upon exercise of the option, the Company would have 70% economic interest in SWL. The options carry voting rights such that the Company and other joint venture partners each hold 50% of the voting rights in respect of shareholder resolutions and certain reserved matters as defined in the joint venture agreement. The Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary because it has the power to direct all significant activities of the joint venture.
The following table summarizes the carrying amounts and classification of the consolidated VIEs’ assets and liabilities included in the consolidated balance sheets. The obligations of the consolidated VIEs are non-recourse to the Company, and the assets of the VIEs can be used only to settle those obligations.

4.Equity Method Investments
The Company maintains a portfolio of equity method investments owned through noncontrolling interests in investments with one or more partners. During the 13 weeks ended June 30, 2024, the Company received a payment of capital of $11 million from its Mimea XXI, S.L.U. joint venture which operates Soho House Barcelona (Spain). There have been no changes in the Company’s equity method investment ownership interests in existing entities and no new equity method investments since December 31, 2023.
Under applicable guidance for VIEs, the Company determined that its investments in the following entities are VIEs:
Toronto Joint Venture
On March 28, 2012, the Company and two unrelated investors (“Toronto Partners”) formed Soho House Toronto to own and operate a House in Toronto, Canada. The Company is responsible for managing the development and operations of the property with key operating decisions requiring joint approval with the Toronto Partners.
56-60 Redchurch Street, London Joint Venture
On July 6, 2015, the Company and a related party investor (“Raycliff Partner”) formed Raycliff Red LLP (“Club Row Rooms”) to develop and operate a hotel at 58-60 Redchurch Street intended to provide additional members’ accommodation to the nearby Shoreditch House in London. This was later extended to include 56 Redchurch Street under the same terms. The Company is responsible for managing the operations of the property

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and for the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023
and the Raycliff Partner is responsible for managing the building.
The Company concluded that it is not the primary beneficiary of the Soho House Toronto or 56-60 Redchurch Street, London VIEs in any of the periods presented, as its joint venture partners have the power to participate in making decisions related to the majority of significant activities of each investee. Accordingly, the Company concluded that application of the equity method of accounting is appropriate for these investees.
Summarized Financial Information
The following table presents summarized financial information for all unconsolidated equity method investees. The Company’s maximum exposure to losses related to its equity method investments is limited to its ownership interests.

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and for the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023
On November 10, 2022, Soho House Bond Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into the Third Amended and Restated Revolving Facility Agreement (the "Third Amendment") which further amends and restates the Revolving Credit Facility, originally entered into by the Company on December 5, 2019 (the original and amended facility refer to as the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The Third Amendment amends the Revolving Credit Facility to extend the maturity date from January 25, 2024 to July 25, 2026. In addition, the Third Amendment provides that from March 2023 we are required to maintain certain leverage covenants (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility) which are applicable when 40% or more of the facility is drawn. As of June 30, 2024, the facility remains undrawn with £71 million ($90 million) available to draw under this facility and £4 million ($5 million) utilized as a letter of guarantee in respect of one of the Company’s lease agreements. The facility is secured on a fixed and floating charge basis over certain assets of the Company. The Company incurred interest expense of less than $1 million and less than $1 million in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility during the 13 weeks ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, respectively, and $1 million and $1 million during the 26 weeks ended June 30. 2024 and July 2, 2023, respectively.
In 2017, Soho Works Limited entered into a term loan facility agreement. The SWL loan bears interest at 7% and matures, following the extensions described below, at the earliest of: (a) September 29, 2025; (b) the date of disposal of the whole or substantial part of the Soho Works Limited; (c) the date of sale by the shareholders of the entire issued share capital of Soho Works Limited to a third party; (d) the date of the admission of Soho Works Limited to any recognized investment exchange or multi-lateral trading facility; and (e) any later date that the lenders may determine in their sole discretion. The carrying amount of the term loan was £22 million ($28 million) and £22 million ($28 million) as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company incurred interest expense of $1 million and $1 million on this facility during the 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, respectively. In March 2024, this loan was subsequently extended for a further 12 months. The Company has determined a current classification of this loan is appropriate as it best reflects the substance of the agreement with the lenders given that the loan extension period is short-term in nature (12 months).
On March 31, 2021, Soho House Bond Limited issued pursuant to a Notes Purchase Agreement senior secured notes, which were subscribed for by certain funds managed, sponsored or advised by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC or its affiliates, in aggregate amounts equal to $295 million, €62 million ($73 million) and £53 million ($73 million) (the “Initial Notes”). The Notes Purchase Agreement included an option to issue, and a commitment on the part of the purchasers to subscribe for an aggregate amount of up to $100 million which were issued for the full amount on March 9, 2022 (the “Additional Notes” and, together with the Initial Notes, the “Senior Secured Notes”). The Senior Secured Notes mature on March 31, 2027 and bear interest at a fixed rate equal to a cash margin of 2.0192% per annum for the Initial Notes or 2.125% per annum for any Additional Notes, plus a payment-in-kind (capitalized) margin of 6.1572% per annum for the Initial Notes or 6.375% per annum for any Additional Notes. The Senior Secured Notes issued pursuant to the Notes Purchase Agreement may be redeemed and prepaid for cash, in whole or in part, at any time in accordance with the terms thereof, subject to payment of redemption fees. The Senior Secured Notes are guaranteed and secured on substantially the same basis as our Revolving Credit Facility. The Company incurred interest expense of $15 million and $13 million during the 13 weeks ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, respectively, and $27 million and $25 million during the 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, respectively.

Recurring and Non-recurring Fair Value Measurements
There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company believes the carrying values of its financial instruments related to current assets and liabilities approximate fair value due to short-term maturities.
The Company has estimated the fair value of the Senior Secured Notes and the property mortgage loans as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 using a discounted cash flow analysis. The fair value of the other non-current debt is estimated as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 using a discounted cash flow analysis, except for the Dean Street Loan and the Copenhagen Loan where fair value is estimated to be equal to the current carrying value of each instrument as of June 30, 2024 based on a comparison of each instrument's contractual terms to current market terms. The Company does not believe that the use of different market inputs would have resulted in a materially different fair value of debt as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
The following table presents the estimated fair values (all of which are Level 3 fair value measurements) of the Company’s debt instruments with maturity dates in 2025 and thereafter:

11.Share-Based Compensation
Equity and incentive plans
The Company operates two equity and incentive plans for the benefit of its employees and directors. In August 2020, the Company established the 2020 Equity and Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) under which SHHL Share Appreciation Rights (“SARs”) and SHHL Growth Shares were issued to certain employees.
In July 2021, the Company established its 2021 Equity and Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”). The 2021 Plan allows for grants of non-qualified stock options, SARs, Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") and Performance Stock Units ("PSUs"). The PSUs generally vest (i) upon the completion of a minimum service period and (ii) the Company's achievement of certain performance goals established at grant. There were 12,107,333 shares initially available for all awards under the 2021 Plan and the shares available is permitted to increase annually on the first day of each calendar year, beginning with the calendar year ended December 31, 2022, subject to approval by the board of directors (the "board"). As of June 30, 2024, there were 750,713 shares available for future awards. The Company granted 904,916 new RSUs and 630,158 new PSUs under the 2021 Plan during the 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024.
Modifications of awards made under the plans
In March 2024, the Company modified the exercise price for certain outstanding SARs to be $6.05 per share. As a result, the Company accounted for the modification as a Type I modification, resulting in $0.2 million of incremental fair value, which was recorded immediately as the awards were fully vested. The assumptions used in valuing SARs modified can be seen in the second table below.

The weighted-average assumptions used in valuing SARs granted or modified during each period are set forth in the following table:
| | | | | |
| For the 26 Weeks Ended June 30, 2024 | | For the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2023 |
Expected average life(1) | 3.21 - 4.81 years | | | 1.70 - 5.56 years | |
Expected volatility(2) | 76 | % | | 55 - 59 | % |
Risk-free interest rate(3) | 4.17 - 4.29% | % | | 3.54 - 5.01 | % |
Expected dividend yield(4) | 0.00 | % | | 0.00 | % |
(1)The expected life assumption is based on the Company's expectation for the period before exercise.
(2)The expected volatility assumption is developed using leverage-adjusted historical volatilities for public peer companies for the period equal to the expected life of the awards.
(3)The risk-free rate is based on the bootstrap adjusted US Treasury Rate Yield Curve Rate as of the valuation date, term matched with expected life of the awards.
(4)The expected dividend yield is 0.0% since the Company does not expect to pay dividends.
As of June 30, 2024, total compensation expense not yet recognized is as follows:
•With respect to the unvested SARs issued under the 2020 Plan and 2021 plans, approximately $1 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.70 years; and
•With respect to the RSUs and PSUs issued under the 2021 Plan, approximately $12 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.19 years.
12.Loss Per Share and Shareholders’ Equity (Deficit)

Stock Repurchases
On March 18, 2022, the Company’s board and a relevant sub-committee thereof authorized and approved a stock repurchase program for up to $50 million of the then outstanding shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. Under the stock repurchase program, the Company was authorized to repurchase from time-to-time shares of its outstanding Class A common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions in the United States. The timing and amount of stock repurchases depended on a variety of factors, including market conditions as well as corporate and regulatory considerations. The stock repurchase program could have been suspended, modified or discontinued at any time, in accordance with relevant and applicable regulatory requirements, and the Company has had no obligation to repurchase any amount of its common stock under the program. The Company intended to make all repurchases in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including Rule 10b5-1 trading plans and under Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), as amended. Under the program, the repurchased shares were returned to the status of authorized, but unissued shares of common stock held in treasury at average cost. The repurchase plan upper limit of $50 million was met in December 2022 and as such there were no further stock repurchases under the above plan subsequent to December 2022.
On September 20, 2023, the Company repurchased 2 million shares of its Class A common stock from its Founder and director Nick Jones for $12 million. The privately negotiated transaction was approved by the board of directors. The shares are now held as treasury shares by the Company.
On February 9, 2024, the Company’s board and a relevant sub-committee authorized and approved a new stock repurchase program for up to $50 million of the currently outstanding shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. During the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024, the Company repurchased a total of 891,045 shares of Class A common stock for $5 million, including commissions, under the new program. The repurchased shares are held as treasury shares by the Company.
Loss Per Share
The Company computes loss per share using the two-class method. As the liquidation and dividend rights are identical, the undistributed earnings or losses are allocated on a proportionate basis to each class of common stock, and the resulting basic and diluted loss per share attributable to common stockholders are therefore the same for Class A and Class B common stock.
13.Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation Matters
The Company is not a party to any litigation other than litigation in the ordinary course of business. The Company’s management and legal counsel do not expect that the ultimate outcome of any of its currently ongoing legal proceedings, individually or collectively, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
For the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024, there have been no material changes in the Company’s estimates or provisions for income taxes recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. Full valuation allowances have been recorded against the incremental deferred tax assets recognized for tax losses, share-based compensation, and excess interest in the U.K., U.S. and Hong Kong. The Company continues to evaluate all positive and negative evidence to evaluate the realizability of its net deferred tax assets and it is reasonably possible that there may be a change in the valuation allowance within the next twelve months. The gross unrecognized tax benefits has increased by $5 million and $5 million in the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024, respectively.
The negative effective tax rate for the 13 weeks ended June 30, 2024 was (14.94)%, compared to (143.82%) for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2023. The negative effective tax rate for the 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024 was (6.54)% compared to (6.88%) for the 26 weeks ended July 2, 2023. The negative effective tax rate for the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024 differs from the US statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the current mix of positive and negative earnings in the various jurisdictions the Company operates in and valuation allowances which reduce the amount of tax

benefit recognized on the pretax book loss. Additionally, the Company is calculating current tax charges in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions related to uncertain tax positions over a pretax book loss for the 13 and 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024 which is the primary difference as compared to the prior year.
The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) global tax reform initiative introduces a global minimum tax of 15% on country-by-country profits applicable to large multinational corporations. As part of this international initiative, the UK enacted its BEPS Pillar Two Minimum Tax legislation in July 2023 with effect for accounting periods beginning on or after December 31, 2023.
The Company has carried out a preliminary assessment of the impact of this legislation for the 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024 and has concluded that these new rules are not likely to have a material impact on the Company's effective tax rate or tax payments for this period. The Company will undertake this assessment for subsequent reporting periods to monitor its compliance with the GloBE rules for fiscal 2024.
The Company’s core operations comprise of Houses, hotels and restaurants across a number of territories, which are managed on a geographical basis. There is a segment managing director for each of the UK, The Americas, Europe and Rest of the World (“RoW”) who is responsible for Houses, hotels and restaurants in that region. Each operating segment manager reports directly to the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer combined. In addition to Houses, hotels and restaurants, the Company offers other products and services, such as retail, home & beauty products and services, which comprise its Retail operating segment; access to Soho Works collaboration spaces across the UK and North America, which comprise its Soho Works operating segment; and memberships for people who live in cities where physical Houses do not exist, which comprise its Cities Without Houses operating segment. The Retail, Soho Works, and Cities Without Houses operating segments also have segment managers which report directly to the CODM and are managed separately from the Houses, hotels and restaurants in each region.
The Company has identified the following three reportable segments:
The Company analyzed the results of the Retail, Soho Works, Soho Restaurants, and Cities Without Houses operating segments and concluded that they did not warrant separate presentation as reportable segments as they do not provide additional useful information to the readers of the financial statements. Therefore, these segments are included as part of an “All Other” category. The historical North America reportable segment has been renamed to The Americas; however, there is no change to the manner in which the segment was previously presented.
Intercompany revenues and costs among the reportable segments are not material and are accounted for as if the sales were to third parties because these items are based on negotiated fees between the segments involved. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. Intercompany revenues and costs between entities within a reportable segment are eliminated to arrive at segment totals. Segment revenue includes revenue of certain equity method investments, which are considered stand-alone operating segments, which are therefore not included in revenues as part of these consolidated financial statements. Eliminations between segments are separately presented. Corporate results include amounts related to corporate functions such as administrative costs and professional fees. Income tax expense is managed by Corporate on a consolidated basis and is not allocated to the reportable segments.
The Company manages and assesses the performance of the reportable segments by Reportable segments EBITDA, which is defined as net income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, provision (benefit) for income taxes, adjusted to take account of the impact of certain non-cash and other items that the Company does not consider in its evaluation of ongoing operating performance. These other items include, but are not limited to, loss (gain) on sale of property and other, net, share of loss (profit) of equity method investments, foreign exchange, pre-opening expenses, non-cash rent, deferred registration fees, net, share of equity method investments EBITDA, share-based compensation expense, and certain other expenses.
The following tables present disaggregated revenue for the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023 and the key financial metrics reviewed by the CODM for the Company’s reportable segments:

Overview
SHCO is a global membership platform that connects a vibrant, diverse group of members from across the world. These members use the platform to both work and socialize, to connect, create, have fun and drive a positive change. The central pillar of SHCO is Soho House, which drives the majority of our membership and revenue today. A Soho House membership offers access to a network of distinctive and carefully curated Houses, across the Americas, the United Kingdom, Europe and Asia, which serve as the cornerstone of our member experience. We enhance our member experience through our digital channels, including the Soho House App and our website.
Over the last 29 years, we have expanded our membership expertise and diversified our offerings—both physically and digitally. As of June 30, 2024, we had approximately 264,500 members (including approximately 204,000 Soho House Members) who engage with SHCO through our global portfolio of 44 Soho Houses, 9 Soho Works, Scorpios Beach Clubs in Mykonos and Bodrum, Soho Home, our interiors and lifestyle retail brand, and our digital channels. The Ned hotels in London, New York and Doha and The LINE and Saguaro hotels in The Americas also form part of SHCO’s wider portfolio via management agreements to operate the properties.
Our membership expertise, honed through the growth of Soho House, has led to our evolution into Soho House & Co, a home to numerous memberships including Cities Without Houses, Soho Works, Soho Friends, and Ned’s Club. By designing, curating and growing our membership offering, our membership platform can quickly and easily respond to shifting lifestyle trends and the evolution of our members’ needs. Our memberships work together, allowing us to reach new audiences with a set of interconnected offerings.
Our membership has remained resilient through multiple economic cycles and other macroeconomic dislocations, including the recent COVID-19 pandemic. The power of our model is driven by the important role we believe that we play in our members’ lives and the value we consistently provide them for their membership fees. We believe our retention compares favorably to leading consumer subscriptions or memberships—across music, media, fitness, entertainment and commerce—despite, in many cases, their significantly lower price points.
The demand for our membership is also demonstrated by our large and growing SHCO global waitlist, which as of June 30, 2024 stands at approximately 111,000 applicants. Awareness of our distinct membership offerings and their scarcity is spread by our members organically through word of mouth, social media and press coverage.
Further, we have observed a secular shift in the ways that people live and work—with less time spent in traditional corporate offices and more time in social spaces that encourage creativity and mutual engagement. We believe that these trends will only accelerate, and that the freedom to be able to choose where to live and work will likely have a significant impact on our target market. We believe this will create an even greater demand for curated communities that can grow and thrive in a more deliberate environment.
Membership Revenues are comprised of annual membership fees and one-time initial registration fees paid by members. In-House Revenues include all revenues realized within our Houses, including food and beverage, accommodation, and spa products and treatments. We view Membership Revenues and In-House revenues as interrelated, although there is no minimum spend for any member on our In-House offerings that generate In-House Revenues. In practice the significant majority of In-House Revenues are generated by our members, and the pricing of our In-House offerings reflects that accordingly, with pricing of such In-House offerings being identical for both members and non-members.
Other revenues include all revenues not realized within our Houses, including Scorpios, Soho Works and stand-alone restaurants, design and procurement fees from Soho House Design, Soho Home and Cowshed retail products and other revenues from products and services that we provide outside of our Houses, as well as management fees from hotel management contracts for The Ned Sites and The LINE and Saguaro hotels.
Our Membership Platform
All of our memberships have been built to enrich the lives of their members, as well as expand our membership offering to a broader audience.
Soho House
Soho House remains at the core of our membership platform by creating a foundation upon which additional membership businesses can be built and scaled.
Every House annual membership fee is approximately $4,800, excluding local sales taxes, which provides access to all of our Houses globally. Our Houses attract members from every demographic, with members from “Generation Z” (27 years old and younger) and “Millennials” (28 to 43 year-olds) constituting the fastest-growing cohorts. We believe the pricing of our In-House offerings represents great value to our members because of the level of quality provided, reinforcing the overall membership experience, rewarding their brand loyalty and creating opportunities for future and recurring revenues.
We created the following types of membership under Soho House to reach a broader audience and enhance the experience of our existing members:
This membership allows us to welcome members to our global community in new geographies where we do not have a physical House. Through this membership we are able to generate additional revenues on our existing base of Houses and gather intelligence for future growth, which we have leveraged to open new Houses in certain locations, including Bangkok, Thailand (February 2023), Mexico City, Mexico (September 2023), Portland, USA (March 2024), Sao Paulo, Brazil (June 2024) and planned future openings in places such as Manchester, United Kingdom and Milan, Italy. As of June 30, 2024, we had 11,121 CWH members across 83 cities.
Through this membership we offer access to some physical House spaces, including Soho House bedrooms, and screenings, with additional benefits from our restaurants, spas and online retail brands to an audience who enjoy the Soho House offerings but do not have a Soho House Membership. Soho Friends annual membership is approximately $130 and does not provide full access to our Houses. As of June 30, 2024, we had 54,192 Soho Friends members. We intend to grow this membership brand in a measured way so that our Soho House Members continue to account for the majority of visitors to our Houses and restaurants.
Soho Works provides its members with the space and resources to work alongside other like-minded individuals and businesses—facilitating connections and providing the tools to flourish. Aimed primarily at existing Soho House and Soho Friends members, with locations in LA, New York and London. Soho Works draws on the same design principles and membership ethos as Soho House, but is a space purposed entirely for work and creative collaboration. As of June 30, 2024, we had 6,320 Soho Works members. Soho Works membership rates vary by location and Soho House membership status. For Adult Paying Members, a US Soho Works membership ranges from $200 to $750 per month, depending on membership type.
Scorpios Beach Club
Scorpios is a well-established globally recognized brand, focused on enriching the lives of its guests who are looking to escape from their daily lives, with two locations currently open. The original Scorpios, set in a cove on the southern tip of Mykonos, offers a one of a kind beach experience with a restaurant, terraces and daybeds, and a distinctive wellness offering. The second location, which opened in Bodrum, Turkey, in June 2024, offers similar seaside restaurant and terrace experiences, and also includes 12 bungalows equipped with private pools. We believe the Scorpios concept has significant potential to expand further, with the expectation to open a third site in Tulum, Mexico.
The Ned
The Ned brand seeks to embody a “city within a city” full-service destination, by playing host to multiple restaurants, bedrooms, a range of grooming services, spa, gym and a full-service members’ club. The membership offered by The Ned (“Ned’s Club”) including Ned’s Friends is aimed at a broader group of professional people. As of June 30, 2024, Ned’s Club London, New York and Doha had approximately 4,500 members, and expect to open a fourth site in Washington, D.C. in the next 12 months. The Ned offers its members The Ned’s Club app, which allows members to make bookings, publish benefits, events and club related information. We receive management fees under hotel management contracts for each of the operations of The Ned sites.
The LINE
On June 22, 2021, we acquired the operating agreements relating to the ‘The LINE’ and ‘Saguaro’ hotels. The hotels that are currently operational are located in Los Angeles, Washington, Austin, Palm Springs, and San Francisco, and among them offer a variety of food and beverage offerings together with approximately 1,500 hotel rooms. We receive management fees under hotel management contract for the operation of these hotels. The transaction has broadened our geographic reach in The Americas.
Factors Affecting Our Business
We believe the coveted lifestyle brand we have created has significant and proven growth potential. This potential, combined with the stability of our membership base, we believe will enable us to maintain our position as an industry leader in the future. We expect to grow our member base by growing the number of Soho Houses, continuing to scale our existing membership brands and launching and growing new membership brands. We believe our track record in expanding and growing our platform will position us to achieve significant and sustained growth.
A significant portion of our revenues is derived from House Revenues which consist of Membership Revenues and In-House Revenues. Our Membership Revenues, which are reflective of our steady and growing global brand, help to provide us with a recurring revenue base that limits the impact of fluctuations in regional economic conditions.
Our business and future performance is also affected by a variety of factors, including:
•The ability to grow our member base. Long-term member growth is a direct driver of Membership Revenue growth and an important factor in driving In-House Revenue growth. The impact of long-term member growth on Membership Revenues can be particularly impactful to our earnings given the lower direct expenses associated with incremental Membership Revenues relative to our other revenue streams.
•Our ability to grow In-House Revenues. In addition to their annual membership fee, our members pay for goods and services that they consume, which we refer to as In-House Revenues. We continue to actively develop the offerings in our Soho Houses and our other membership brands to improve overall experience and capture greater spend on food and beverage, accommodation, spa services, private events and our other goods and services. We believe that the pricing of our In-House offerings, which is reflective of the membership fees we receive from members who consume most of our In-House offerings, represents great value to our members for the level of quality provided, reinforcing the overall membership experience, rewarding brand loyalty and creating the opportunity for future revenue enhancement. Our proven ability to drive long-term member growth at existing Houses is also an important contributing factor in sustaining In-House Revenue growth.
•Our ability to adjust membership pricing. As we expand our number of Soho Houses globally and continue to invest in maintaining the quality of our existing Soho Houses, we are able to grow Membership Revenues by periodically reviewing our membership fee rates, as well as migrating members from Local House to Every House membership, which also has the effect of increasing Membership Revenues. Contrary to traditional hospitality companies which may experience brand dilution as they expand, the value of our membership and brand strengthens as we expand into new cities and properties. As we expand globally, the value of an Every House membership becomes more compelling to both new and existing members, enhancing our revenue potential. Historically, our membership price increases have not had a material impact on our retention rates and we believe this provides a strong indication of demand and price inelasticity for our memberships.
•Our ability to grow our membership brands and products. We believe the strength of our brand and our culture of creativity and innovation will allow us to continue to capitalize on opportunities in complementary concepts and product lines and that our adjacent lines of business can achieve substantial stand-alone scale. Our expansion into new products and businesses can contribute meaningfully to our revenue in the future as we tap into our existing and growing membership base.
Reportable Segments
Our operations consist of three reportable segments (United Kingdom, The Americas, Europe and Rest of the World (“RoW”)) and one non-reportable segment that we present as “All Other”. Each of our segments includes all operations in that region including our Houses and all associated facilities, spas and stand-alone restaurants. The historical North America reportable segment has been renamed to The Americas; however, there is no change to the manner in which the segment was previously presented. Refer to Note 15, Segments in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information on reportable segments.
Key Performance, Operating Metrics and Additional Financial Measures and Other Data Evaluated by Management
In assessing the performance of our business, we consider a variety of operating and financial measures and metrics. These measures and metrics include:
NUMBER OF SOHO HOUSES. The number of Soho Houses reflects the total number of Soho Houses in operation in any period, irrespective of whether each House is (i) controlled by us, (ii) operated through a non-controlling interest in a joint venture or (iii) operated under a management contract.
We review the number of members from all Houses to assess new member growth, total House Revenues, and House-Level Contribution.
NUMBER OF SOHO HOUSE MEMBERS. Our Soho House membership model is an integral part of our business and has a significant impact on our profitability and financial performance. Typically, members hold an Every House membership or a Local House membership. Member count is the primary driver of Membership Revenues and is also a critical factor in driving In-House Revenues as members utilize the offerings that are provided within the Houses. Soho House members include all active, frozen and non-paying members.
The extent to which we achieve growth in our membership base, retain existing members and periodically increase our membership fee rates will impact our profitability. We have historically enjoyed strong member loyalty, reflected by very high retention rates. Robust demand for our memberships is also evidenced by considerable wait lists for our Houses.
The year-over-year increase in our total number of Soho House Members is driven by a combination of increases in membership at existing Houses and members from new Houses.
SOHO HOUSE MEMBER RETENTION. Soho House Member Retention is defined as the number of Adult Paying Members (being all Soho House members excluding child members and complimentary members) at the beginning of a period less the number of Adult Paying Members who canceled their membership during that same period (without giving any effect to Adult Paying Members who froze their memberships during such period), as a proportion of total Adult Paying Members at the beginning of such period.
NUMBER OF OTHER MEMBERS. Other members include members of Soho Works and Soho Friends are key to our growth strategy and enhancing our Soho House member experience. Like Adult Paying members, other memberships are an integral part of our business and we believe will have a significant impact on our profitability and financial performance in the future.
FROZEN MEMBERS. Frozen Members refers to Adult Paying Members who have elected to suspend their membership payments on a six, nine- or twelve-month basis during which period the member is not able to gain access to a Soho House site as a member, access our membership Apps, or book bedrooms or
Cowshed treatments or products on discounted member rates. Frozen Members are not included in Adult Paying Members, but are included in the total number of Soho House members.
MEMBERSHIP REVENUES. Membership Revenues are comprised of House Membership Revenues (as defined below) and Non-House Membership Revenues (as defined below). House Membership Revenues and Non-House Membership Revenues are each comprised primarily of annual membership fees and one-time registration fees which are amortized over 20 years. The one-time registration fee is no longer applicable to new members admitted from April 4, 2022; see "House Introduction Credits" below. Membership Revenues are a function of the number of members, membership mix, and membership pricing. For GAAP, we report Membership Revenues only from Houses and sites in which we own a controlling interest. Our membership pricing varies by geographic segment and membership offering and, as such, our mix of House and Soho Works club openings can affect our revenue growth and profitability over time. Prices are generally higher in The Americas and the RoW compared with the UK and Europe. Membership Revenues provide a stable and recurring source of revenues which have few direct costs and, as such, is a reliable and predictable source of cash flow.
HOUSE INTRODUCTION CREDITS. New members admitted from April 4, 2022 have been required to purchase House Introduction Credits as part of their membership, per the House rules. House Introduction Credits are credits of an equivalent value to cash within Houses and are redeemable to purchase food and beverage items, and bedroom stays, at the Houses. House Introduction Credits expire after the first three months from the date of issuance, where legally permitted in the regions we operate, if not utilized or if the Company terminates a member’s House membership. House Introduction Credits are recognized upon issuance as deferred revenue on our consolidated balance sheets. Revenue from House Introduction Credits are recognized as In-House revenues when redeemed by members, and as breakage revenue within Membership revenues upon expiration or in the period that we are able to reliably estimate expected breakage to the extent that they are unredeemed, are recognized.
HOUSE MEMBERSHIP REVENUES. House Membership Revenues are comprised primarily of annual membership fees and one-time legacy registration fees from Adult Paying Members which are amortized over 20 years. The one-time registration fee is no longer applicable to new members admitted from April 4, 2022; see "House Introduction Credits" above.
IN-HOUSE REVENUES. In-House Revenues refer to all revenues realized within our Houses, and primarily includes revenues from food and beverage, accommodation, and spa products and treatments.
HOUSE REVENUES. House Revenues is defined as Membership revenues plus In-House revenues, less Non-House Membership Revenues. Our management views House Membership Revenues and In-House Revenues as interrelated and their aggregation as important in tracking House performance. Although there is no minimum spend for any member on In-House offerings, in practice most members consume food and beverage, accommodations and other offerings at our Houses. The pricing of our In-House offerings is reflective of the fact that the significant majority of In-House offerings that generate In-House revenues are consumed by members who also pay a membership fee in relation to that House, with pricing of such In-House offerings being identical for both members and non-members.
OTHER REVENUES. Other revenues are defined as total revenues that are not realized within our Houses, including revenues from Scorpios, Soho Works and our stand-alone restaurants, procurement fees from SHD, Soho Home retail products and Cowshed services and brand license fees and other revenues from products and services that we provide outside of our Houses. Additionally, this category also includes management fees from hotel management contracts for The Ned Sites and the LINE and Saguaro hotels.
NON-HOUSE MEMBERSHIP REVENUES. Non-House Membership Revenues are comprised of Soho Works membership revenues and Soho Friends membership revenue.
ACTIVE APP USERS. Active App Users is defined as unique users who have logged into any of our membership Apps within the previous three months.
AVERAGE DAILY RATE ("ADR"). Average Daily Rate represents the average rental income per paid occupied room. We believe this is a meaningful indicator of our performance.
REVENUE PER AVAILABLE ROOM ("RevPAR"). The key industry standard for measuring hotel-operating performance is RevPAR, which is calculated by multiplying the percentage of occupied rooms to available rooms by the ADR realized. We believe RevPAR is a meaningful indicator of our performance because it measures the period-over-period change in room revenues for comparable properties. RevPAR may not be comparable to similarly titled measures, such as revenues, and should not be viewed as necessarily correlating with our revenue. We also believe occupancy and ADR, which are components of calculating RevPAR, are meaningful indicators of our performance. Where this is presented on a like-for like basis, RevPAR is adjusted for new or divested sites, for example Houses that were not open in the comparison period.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We refer to Adjusted EBITDA, House-Level Contribution, House-Level Contribution Margin, Other Contribution and Other Contribution Margin throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as we use these measures to evaluate our operating performance and each of these measures is defined in “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” We believe these measures are useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA, House-Level Contribution, House-Level Contribution Margin, Other Contribution and Other Contribution Margin are all supplemental measures of our performance that are neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA, House-Level Contribution, House-Level Contribution Margin, Other Contribution and Other Contribution Margin should not be considered as substitutes for GAAP metrics such as Operating Income (Loss) and Net Loss or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Some of our financial and operational data that we disclose in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are presented on a ‘constant currency’ basis to isolate the effect of currency changes during the period. Where we refer to a measure being calculated in ‘constant currency’, we are calculating the USD change and the percent change as if the exchange rate that is being used in the current period was in effect for
the prior period presented. We believe that this calculation provides a more meaningful indication of actual year-over-year performance and eliminates the fluctuations from currency exchange rates.

Membership revenues increased by 16% to $103,584 for the 13 weeks ended June 30, 2024 predominantly driven by an increase in Adult Paying Members of 13%, or 18,500, who joined after the end of the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2023. Additionally, all Soho House Adult paying fees were increased at the start of fiscal 2023, impacting members on their renewal date throughout fiscal 2023.
All Soho House Adult paying fees increased in January 2024, with in general a low single-digit price rise for existing members and a mid single-digit increase
in price for new members. This increase will impact new members on the date they join and existing members on their renewal date.
There was also an increase in Non-House Membership revenues of $402. This was driven by Soho Works as a result of increased membership fees in fiscal 2024, partially offset by a reduction in the number of Soho Friends members in comparison to the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2023.
The Americas segment saw an increase in membership revenues of $6,631, or 16%, due to approximately 9,600, or 17% increase in Adult Paying Soho House members year-on-year, with the opening of Soho House Sao Paulo (June, 2024), Soho House Portland (March, 2024) and Soho House Mexico City (September 2023), as well as growth across existing Houses. The impact of the membership fee increases noted also contributed to the increase in Membership revenues.
Our United Kingdom segment saw an increase in Membership revenues of $4,467, or 18% , due to approximately 3,900, or 7% increase in Adult Paying Soho House members, driven by growth in existing Houses, coupled with the impact of the House membership fee increases as noted above. In constant currency, Membership revenues in the United Kingdom segment increased by $4,285, or 17%.
The Europe/RoW segment saw an increase in Membership revenues of $1,640, or 17%, due to approximately 2,900, or 12% increase in Adult paying members, driven by growth in existing Houses, alongside revenue impact of the House membership fee increases as noted above. In constant currency, Membership revenues in the Europe/RoW segment increased by $1,571, or 16%.
All Other saw an increase in Membership revenues of $1,653, or 14%, predominantly driven by approximately 2,200, or 29% more CWH Adult Paying Members, offset by a decline of approximately 11,300 Non-House members in comparison to the second quarter of fiscal 2023. In constant currency, All Other Membership revenues increased by $1,568, or 13%.
In constant currency, Membership revenues increased by $14,055, or 16%.

Other revenues were $73,210 for the 13 weeks ended June 30, 2024, compared to $74,250 for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2023, a decrease of $1,040. The decline is predominantly driven by not hosting a Coachella event this year, movement of Cowshed to a brand license deal, closure of unprofitable stand-alone restaurants, and lower design and development fees.
Other revenues in the The Americas segment decreased $1,165, or 6% versus the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2023 driven by the removal of the Coachella event in fiscal 2024 and a decline in sales in some of the stand-alone restaurants period-on-period, offset by an increase in management fees from the LINE and Saguaro business.
The United Kingdom segment saw a decrease in Other revenues of $680, or 4% versus second quarter fiscal 2023 driven by the closure of legacy stand-alone restaurants in 2023.
Other revenues in the Europe/RoW segment have increased compared to the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2023 driven by the opening of Scorpios, Bodrum (June, 2024) offset by a reduction in management fees. In constant currency, Other Revenues in the Europe/RoW segment increased by $2,561, or 22%.
Other revenues in All Other have reduced period-on-period driven by Cowshed moving to a brand license deal effective January 1, 2024, which results in recognition of royalty income in 2024 versus revenue in fiscal 2023, offset by growth in Soho Home. Additionally during the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2023, we recognized $3,000 in respect of a lease promote in our Rome property from our landlord.

In-House Operating Expenses were $162,884 for the 13 weeks ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $10,531. The increase is a result of the three new Houses opened since the beginning of the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2023, alongside period-on-period wage increases. In constant currency, In-House Operating Expenses increased by $9,442.
House-Level Contribution, which is defined as House Revenues less In-House Operating Expenses, was $59,572 for the 13 weeks ended June 30, 2024, compared to $53,242 for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2023, an increase of $6,330. The increase in House-Level Contribution predominantly relates to increased Soho House membership and in-House revenues period-on-period, offset by higher in-House operating expenses.
House-Level Contribution Margin was 27% for the 13 weeks ended June 30, 2024, an increase of 1% from the prior period due to increased revenues, especially membership. The Americas was impacted by the drag of opening two new Houses in the first half of fiscal 2024.

This increased spend is predominantly driven by the opening of the new Scorpios site in Bodrum and costs associated with Soho Home growth, offset by the permanent closure of our operations at The Hoxton (July 2023), removal of the Coachella event, as well as Cowshed moving to a brand licensing deal effective January 1, 2024.

Other Contribution Margin was 17% for the 13 weeks ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of 4% compared to the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2023.

Pre-opening expenses were $5,652 for the 13 weeks ended June 30, 2024, driven predominately by the costs associated with the opening of Scorpios Bodrum
as well as Soho House Sao Paulo. This is compared to $4,206 in the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2023, with the increase driven largely by the characteristics of fiscal 2024 Houses openings in comparison to fiscal 2023. In constant currency pre-opening expenses increased by 33%.

increase period-on-period was driven predominately by increases from 2023/2024 Houses and spend in IT to support key membership and compliance
initiatives offset by a reduction across Soho Works sites. In constant currency, depreciation and amortization expenses decreased by $49, or n/m.

Share-based compensation expense decreased by $2,059 to $3,598 for the 13 weeks ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to a number of SARs granted prior to the IPO fully vesting in the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2023.
Foreign exchange (gain) loss, net which is unrealized and non-cash in nature, moved from a gain of $21,584 to a loss of $5,173 for the 13 weeks ended June 30, 2024, primarily driven by foreign exchange revaluation of our borrowings.
Other expense increased by $6,721 to $6,700 for the 13 weeks ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to the recognition of impairment losses on intangible assets related to the termination of two hotel management contracts of $4,710, alongside $2,114 incurred as part of a strategic reorganization program of our operations and support teams and $930 of expenses incurred with respect to the evaluation of certain strategic transactions by our independent special committee. These were partially offset by $1,000 arising from a lease termination in the period.

Membership revenues increased by 18% (17% constant currency) to $203,775 for the 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024, predominantly driven by an increase in Adult Paying Members of 13%, or 18,500, who joined after the end of the 26 weeks ended July 2, 2023. Additionally, all Soho House Adult paying fees were increased at the start of fiscal 2023, impacting members on their renewal date throughout fiscal 2023.
All Soho House Adult paying fees increased in January 2024, with in general a low single-digit price rise for existing members and a mid single-digit increase
in price for new members. This increase will impact new members on the date they join and existing members on their renewal date.
There was also an increase in Non-House Membership revenues of $1,285, this was driven by Soho Works as a result of increased membership fees in fiscal
2024. This was offset slightly by a reduction in the number of Soho Friends members in comparison to the end of the 26 weeks ended July 2, 2023.
The Americas segment saw an increase in revenues of $13,289, or 16% , due to approximately 9,600, or 17% increase in Adult Paying Soho House members year-on-year, with the opening of Soho House Sao Paulo (June 2024), Soho House Portland (March 2024) and Soho House Mexico City (September 2023), as well as growth across existing Houses. The impact of the membership fee increases noted also contributed to the increase in Membership revenues.
Our United Kingdom segment saw an increase in Membership revenues of $9,838, or 20% (17% constant currency), due to approximately 3,900, or 7% increase in Adult Paying Soho House members, driven by growth in existing Houses, coupled with the impact of the House membership fee increases as noted above.
The Europe/RoW segment saw an increase in Membership revenues of $3,898, or 21% (19% constant currency), due to approximately 2,900, or 12% increase in Adult paying members, as well as the revenue impact of the House membership fee increases as noted above.
Membership revenue reported under All Other above saw an increase predominantly driven by over 2,200, or 29% more CWH Adult Paying Members, offset by a decline of approximately 11,300 Non-House members in comparison to the second quarter of fiscal 2023.
In constant currency, Membership revenues increased by $29,403, or 17%.

In-House revenues were $238,753 for the 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of $2,805 versus the 26 weeks ended July 2, 2023. The performance was driven by macroeconomic trends adversely impacting all regions, these trends have improved throughout the period. Revenues were supported by three new Houses that opened since the beginning of the second quarter fiscal 2023.
Our Americas segment saw an increase in In-House revenues versus the comparable period. The region saw slightly weaker like-for-like In-House performance offset by the opening of Soho House Mexico City (September 2023), Soho House Portland (March 2024) and Soho House Sao Paulo (June 2024).
In-House revenues in our United Kingdom segment saw a reduction driven by lower like-for-like food and beverage sales. White City House was impacted by the closure of its rooftop for 11 weeks in the period due to refurbishments, which decreased In-House revenues in this segment.
The Europe/RoW segment saw a decrease of In-House revenues year-on-year, driven by external factors such as a reduction in footfall in our Tel Aviv House versus comparative period, alongside room revenue declines across certain Houses. In addition, during the 26 weeks ended July 2, 2023, we recognized approximately $1,800 from the Dutch government related to COVID-19 subsidies and approximately $1,100 from a settlement to recover costs incurred on behalf of a former development partner in connection with a proposed European House opening, which impacts comparatives in Europe. This was offset slightly by the opening of Soho House Bangkok (February 2023).
In constant currency, In-House Revenues decreased by $5,796, a decrease of 2%,

The decline is driven by the movement of Cowshed to a brand license deal effective January 1, 2024, closure of unprofitable stand-alone restaurants, weaker townhouse and stand-alone restaurant sales and removal of the Coachella event, offset by Soho Home growth and the opening of Scorpios Bodrum (June 2024).
Additionally, we recognized approximately $3,000 in respect of a lease promote in our Rome property from our landlord in the 26 weeks ended July 2, 2023.

In-House Operating Expenses were $314,513 for the 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $18,188, driven by four additional House openings and increased wage, energy and rent costs year-on-year. In constant currency, In-House Operating Expenses increased by $11,846.
House-Level Contribution, which is defined as House Revenues less In-House Operating Expenses, was $109,016 for the 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024, compared to $99,960 for the 26 weeks ended July 2, 2023, an increase of $9,056. The increase in House-Level Contribution predominantly relates to increased Soho House membership revenues period-on-period.
House-Level Contribution Margin was 26% for the 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024, an increase of 1% from the prior period due to increased membership revenues, compared to the prior period, partially offset by the dilutive impact of four new Houses.

Other Operating Expenses were $122,367 for the 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024, compared with $122,607 for the 26 weeks ended July 2, 2023, a decrease of $240. This decrease is attributable to the fact that the Coachella event was not held during the current period and the permanent closure of all but one of our Soho Restaurants, which excludes Cecconi's, at the start of fiscal 2023 and the closure of The Hoxton, Shoreditch (July 2023), offset by increased trade volume in Soho Home from additional sites and online year-on-year sales growth. In constant currency, Other Operating Expenses decreased by $2,864, or 2%.
Other Contribution, which we define as Other Revenues plus Non-House Membership Revenues less Other Operating Expenses, was $22,396 for the 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024, compared to $25,240 for the 26 weeks ended July 2, 2023, a reduction of $2,844. While Non-House Membership Revenues have increased, this increase was offset by design and development fees in the 26 weeks ended July 2, 2023 and the recognition of $3,000 in respect of a lease promote in our Rome property from our landlord.
Other Contribution Margin was 15% for the 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of 2% compared to the 26 weeks ended July 2, 2023, as the revenue decline relating to the closure of legacy stand-alone restaurants was offset by higher Soho Home contribution, alongside growth in Non-House Membership Revenues period-on-period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is the ability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet the cash requirements of our business operations. Our principal sources of liquidity are operating cash flows, holdings of cash and cash equivalents and availability under our Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2024, we maintained a cash and cash equivalents balance of $151 million and a restricted cash balance of $3 million.
Our primary requirements for liquidity are to fund our working capital needs, operating and finance lease obligations, capital expenditures and general corporate needs. Our ongoing capital expenditures are principally related to opening new Houses, refurbishing and maintaining the existing House portfolio as well as investments in our corporate technology infrastructure to support our digital strategy and technology infrastructure.
In a given year, our primary cash inflows and outflows relate to the following:
(1)from operating activities, our cash inflows include Membership revenues, In-House revenues and Other revenues, such as the sale of retail products. The primary cash outflows from operating activities include general operating expenses and interest payments.
(2)from investing activities, our cash inflows include the proceeds from sale of property and equipment and distributions from equity method investments. The primary cash outflows from investing activities include the purchase of property and equipment as well as intangibles.
(3)from financing activities, our cash inflows from financing activities include proceeds from borrowings and from the issuance of shares. The primary cash outflows from financing activities include repayments of borrowings and legal and professional fees from debt or equity related transactions, as well as, from time to time the repurchase of shares under board authorized repurchase plans.
On February 9, 2024, the Company’s board and a relevant sub-committee authorized and approved a new stock repurchase program for up to $50 million of the currently outstanding shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. During the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024, the Company repurchased a total of 891,045 shares of Class A common stock for $5 million, including commissions, under the new program. The repurchased shares are held as treasury shares by the Company.
We believe our existing cash and marketable securities balances will be sufficient to fund our operating and finance lease obligations, capital expenditures and working capital needs for at least the next 12 months and the foreseeable future.

Cash Requirements from Contractual and Other Obligations
As of June 30, 2024, there have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business to our contractual obligations from those disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments
Management’s discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations is based on the financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses incurred during the reporting periods. The estimates are based on historical experience and on various other factors that are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.
Emerging Growth Company Status
We are an ‘emerging growth company,’ as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act, and are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not ‘emerging growth companies,’ including, but not limited to: presenting only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements with correspondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or Sarbanes-Oxley; having reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy or information statements; being exempt from the requirements to hold a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation or seek stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved; and not being required to adopt certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Our exposure to market risk has not materially changed from what was previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.
Foreign Exchange Risk
We principally operate in the UK and The Americas, although we have significant operations in Europe. Therefore, we are exposed to reporting foreign exchange risk in Pound sterling and Euros.
We have not, to date, used any material financial instruments to mitigate our foreign exchange risk. The directors and management will keep this situation under review. As income is received and suppliers paid in respect of the UK and European operation in Pound sterling or Euros, respectively, this acts as a natural hedge against foreign exchange risk.
If the USD had strengthened/weakened by 10% versus the GBP, revenue would have been approximately $8 million lower and approximately $9 million higher, respectively, and Net Loss would have been approximately $2 million lower and approximately $2 million higher, respectively, for the 13 weeks ended June 30, 2024.
If the Euro had strengthened/weakened by 10% versus the GBP, revenue would have been approximately $2 million higher and approximately $2 million lower, respectively, and Net Loss would have been approximately less than $1 million lower and approximately less than $1 million higher, respectively, for the 13 weeks ended June 30, 2024.
If the USD had strengthened/weakened by 10% versus the GBP, revenue would have been approximately $29 million lower and approximately $31 million higher, respectively, and Net Loss would have been approximately $6 million lower and approximately $7 million higher, respectively, for the 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024.
If the Euro had strengthened/weakened by 10% versus the GBP, revenue would have been approximately $7 million higher and approximately $6 million lower, respectively, and Net Loss would have been approximately less than $1 million lower and approximately less than $1 million higher, respectively, for the 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of loss from amounts owed by financial counter-parties. Credit risk can occur at multiple levels; as a result of broad economic conditions, challenges within specific sectors of the economy, or from issues affecting individual companies. Financial instruments that potentially subject us to credit risk consist of cash equivalents and accounts receivable.
We maintain cash and cash equivalents with major financial institutions. Our cash and cash equivalents consist of bank deposits held with banks, and money market funds that, at times, exceed federally or locally insured limits. We limit our credit risk by dealing with customers, counterparties and institutions that are considered to be of high credit quality and by performing periodic evaluations of accounts receivable and investments and of the relative credit standing of our customers, counterparties and financial institutions, as applicable.
Liquidity Risk
We seek to manage our financial risks to ensure that sufficient liquidity is available to meet our foreseeable needs. We believe we have significant flexibility to control our capital expenditure commitments in new House developments through different investment formats. As of June 30, 2024, we had $151 million in cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet, $3 million of restricted cash and £71 million ($90 million) undrawn on the Revolving Credit Facility (subject to complying with our covenants) to meet our funding needs.
Cash Flow and Fair Value Interest Rate Risk
We have historically financed our operations through a mixture of bank borrowings and bond notes which are generally fixed, and expect to finance our operations through operating cash flows and availability under our Revolving Credit Facility. We seek to manage exposure to adverse interest rate changes through our normal operating and financing activities.
Inflation Risk
Inflation has an impact on food, utilities, labor, rent, and other costs which materially impact operations. Severe increases in inflation could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. If several of the various costs in our business experience inflation at the same time, we may not be able to adjust prices to sufficiently offset the effect of the various cost increases without negatively impacting consumer demand.
Commodity Price Risks
We are exposed to commodity price risks specially foodstuffs, natural gas and oil. Many of the ingredients we use to prepare our food and beverages are commodities or are affected by the price of other commodities. Factors that affect the price of commodities are generally outside of our control and include foreign currency exchange rates, foreign and domestic supply and demand, inflation, weather, the geopolitical situation, and seasonality.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management concluded that as of June 30, 2024 our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level, due to material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As disclosed in our Annual Report in Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, based on management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, management concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2023, because of the identification of two material weaknesses identified in our internal control over financial reporting. The material weaknesses related to (i) our lack of a sufficient number of personnel with an appropriate level of knowledge and experience with the application of US generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and with our financial reporting requirements; and (ii) the fact that policies and procedures with respect to the review, supervision and monitoring of our accounting and reporting functions, including IT general controls, were either not designed and in place, or not operating effectively. These material weaknesses resulted in adjustments to our financial statements and included lease accounting, income tax accounting, impairment of long-lived assets accounting, related party transactions and disclosures and balance sheet reclassifications during the course of the audit process.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) during the 26 weeks ended June 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and our management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting also are based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
From time to time we are subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. At present, we are not a party to any litigation other than litigation in the ordinary course of business. We do not expect that the ultimate outcome of any of the currently ongoing legal proceedings, individually or collectively, will have a significant adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
However, the results of litigation and arbitration are inherently unpredictable and the possibility exists that the ultimate resolution of matters to which we are or could become subject could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
You should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in section “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, which could materially affect our business, financial position, or future results of operations. There have been no material changes to the risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The risks described in our Annual Report Form 10-K are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not precisely known to us, or that we currently deem to be immaterial, may also arise and materially impact our business. If any of these risks occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected and the trading price of our common stock could decline.
