Emergence from Bankruptcy

On May 6, 2025 (the “Petition Date”), we and certain of our subsidiaries (the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Court”). Subsequently, on May 30, 2025, the Debtors filed with the Court the First Amended Joint Prepackaged Plan of Reorganization of WW International, Inc. and its Debtor Affiliates, Docket No. 143 (as supplemented, the “Plan”), and on June 24, 2025 (the “Emergence Date”), we emerged from the Chapter 11 Cases in accordance with the Plan. Since the Petition Date and through the Emergence Date, we operated our businesses as debtors-in-possession under the jurisdiction of the Court in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Court.

On April 13, 2021, we, as borrower, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and an issuing bank, entered into a credit agreement (the “Prepetition Credit Agreement”). The Prepetition Credit Agreement provided for senior secured financing of $1,175.0 million in the aggregate, consisting of (1) $1,000.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured tranche B term loans maturing on April 13, 2028 (the “Prepetition Term Loan Facility”) and (2) a $175.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (which included borrowing capacity available for letters of credit) maturing on April 23, 2026 (the “Prepetition Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the Prepetition Term Loan Facility, the “Prepetition Credit Facilities”). On April 13, 2021, we issued $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 4.500% Senior Secured Notes due 2029 (the “Notes”). The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of April 13, 2021 (the “Indenture”), among us, the guarantors named therein and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee and notes collateral agent.

Upon emergence from bankruptcy, all outstanding liabilities of approximately $1,116.0 million under the Prepetition Credit Facilities and the Prepetition Credit Agreement, and all outstanding obligations of $500.0 million under the Notes and the Indenture were discharged and the liens and mortgages related thereto were released. Additionally, on the Emergence Date we (A) executed the senior secured credit agreement (“the Senior Secured Credit Agreement”) by and between us, as borrower, the lenders party thereto, and Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB (“WSFS”), as administrative agent, providing for a five-year term loan (the “New Term Loan Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of $465.0 million, maturing on June 24, 2030, to (i) refinance first lien claims and (ii) provide working capital and liquidity post-emergence, (B) distributed 9.1 million shares of our common stock to the holders of prepetition first lien claims and 0.9 million shares of our common stock to the holders of prepetition common stock, and (C) issued four letters of credit of $3.7 million in the aggregate, all maturing in 2026.

Beginning on the Emergence Date, we applied fresh start accounting which resulted in Successor and Predecessor financial statement presentation. As used herein, references to “Predecessor” relate to us and our operations prior to and including the Emergence Date and references to “Successor” relate to us and our operations after the Emergence Date. Refer to Note 1 “Basis of Presentation” to our Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

To supplement our consolidated results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), we have disclosed non-GAAP financial measures of operating results that exclude or adjust certain items. We present within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q the following non-GAAP financial measures: earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses and share-based compensation expense (“EBITDA”); and EBITDA adjusted for goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible asset impairments, reorganization items, net, gain on extinguishment of debt, transaction costs related to strategic alternatives and Chapter 11 financial reorganization, net restructuring charges, non-recurring expenses in connection with the management of certain executive matters, and other items as indicated in the reconciliations below that management believes are not indicative of ongoing operations, as applicable, (“Adjusted EBITDA”). See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA” for the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measure in each case.

Our management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding the performance of our business and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of the performance of our business. While we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating our business, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

USE OF CONSTANT CURRENCY

As exchange rates are an important factor in understanding period-to-period comparisons, we believe in certain cases the presentation of results on a constant currency basis in addition to reported results helps improve investors’ ability to understand our operating results and evaluate our performance in comparison to prior periods. Constant currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period. We use results on a constant currency basis as one measure to evaluate our performance. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we calculate constant currency by calculating current-year results using prior-year foreign currency exchange rates. We generally refer to such amounts calculated on a constant currency basis as excluding or adjusting for the impact of foreign currency or being on a constant currency basis. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with GAAP and are not meant to be considered in isolation. Results on a constant currency basis, as we present them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measures of performance presented in accordance with GAAP.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Information concerning our critical accounting policies is set forth in “Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our audited consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2025. Our critical accounting policies and estimates have not changed since the end of fiscal 2025, except as discussed below.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Impairment Tests

We review goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for potential impairment on at least an annual basis or more often if events so require. We performed our annual fair value impairment testing for fiscal 2026 on May 1, 2026 (Successor). Impairment is assessed by examining underlying assumptions used to determine fair value including projections of future cash flows, revenue growth rates, operating income margins and discount rates. We also considered the trading value of both our equity and debt. If we determine that it is more likely than not that our intangible assets may be impaired, we use a quantitative approach to assess the asset’s fair value and the amount of the impairment, if any.

Based on the results of the annual goodwill impairment test performed for our Behavioral and Clinical reporting units, which held 81.0% and 19.0% of our goodwill as of May 1, 2026 (Successor), respectively, we concluded that no goodwill impairment existed as of May 1, 2026 (Successor). However, we identified our Behavioral reporting unit as being at risk for impairment, as the estimated fair value of this reporting unit exceeded its respective carrying value by less than 10% as of May 1, 2026 (Successor).

Based on the results of the annual impairment test performed for our trade name indefinite-lived intangible asset, we concluded that no impairment existed as of May 1, 2026 (Successor). However, we identified our trade name indefinite-lived intangible asset as being at risk for impairment, as the estimated fair value of this asset exceeded its respective carrying value by less than 10% as of May 1, 2026 (Successor).

During the three months ended March 31, 2026 (Successor), we identified various qualitative and quantitative factors which collectively indicated a triggering event had occurred. These factors included changes in macroeconomic conditions and declines in our stock price. As a result of these factors, we performed interim quantitative goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment assessments in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 (Successor).

Based on the results of the interim goodwill impairment test performed for our Behavioral and Clinical reporting units and the interim impairment test performed for our trade name indefinite-lived intangible asset, we concluded that no impairments existed as of March 31, 2026 (Successor).

The fair value estimates for our reporting units are sensitive to changes in key assumptions. Adverse changes in the macroeconomic environment, discount rates, forecasted operating results, or other valuation assumptions, as well as further declines in our stock price or market capitalization, could result in goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets impairments in future periods. We continue to monitor our reporting units for interim impairment indicators. These risks are further described in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10‑K. For additional information regarding our goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment testing methodology and key assumptions, refer to the Critical Accounting Estimates section included in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (Successor).

PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

Our management team regularly reviews and analyzes a number of financial and operating metrics, including the key performance indicators listed below, in order to manage our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, determine the allocation of resources, make decisions regarding corporate strategies and assess the quality and potential variability of our cash flows and earnings. We also believe that these key performance indicators are useful to both management and investors for forecasting purposes and to facilitate comparisons to our historical operating results. These metrics are supplemental to our GAAP results and include operational measures.

• Revenue—Our “Subscription Revenue” consists of the aggregate of: (a) “Behavioral Subscription Revenue”, the fees associated with subscriptions for our Behavioral offerings; and (b) “Clinical Subscription Revenue”, the fees associated with subscriptions for our Clinical offerings. In addition, “Other Revenue” consists of revenue from licensing, franchise fees with respect to commitment plans and royalties, publishing and other revenue. “Revenue” consists of the aggregate of Subscription Revenue and Other Revenue.
• Incoming Subscribers—“Subscribers” refer to Behavioral subscribers and Clinical subscribers who participate in recurring bill programs in Company-owned operations. The “Incoming Subscribers” metric reports Subscribers in Company-owned operations at a given period start. Recruitment and retention are key drivers for this metric. Management utilizes this metric to monitor changes in the subscriber base which directly impacts our revenue growth and trends.
• End of Period Subscribers—The “End of Period Subscribers” metric reports Subscribers in Company-owned operations at a given period end. Recruitment and retention are key drivers for this metric. Management utilizes this metric to monitor changes in the subscriber base which directly impacts our revenue growth and trends.
• Monthly Subscription Revenue Per Average Subscriber—The “Monthly Subscription Revenue Per Average Subscriber” metric reports the monthly fees associated with subscriptions for our offerings divided by the Average Subscriber for our businesses. Monthly Subscription Revenue for both quarterly and year-to-date periods for each respective business are calculated as Subscription Revenue divided by the number of months in the respective quarterly or year-to-date period. The “Average Subscriber” for quarterly periods for each respective business is the average of its Incoming Subscribers and End of Period Subscribers for the respective quarterly period. The “Average Subscriber” for year-to-date periods for each respective business is the average of its Incoming Subscribers at the beginning of the fiscal year and its End of Period Subscribers for each quarter end within the respective year-to-date period. Management utilizes this metric to consider revenue growth and trends on a per subscriber basis.
• Gross profit and gross margin.

Consolidated Results of Operations

Revenue

Revenue was $162.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), $12.2 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and $177.0 million for the period from March 30, 2025 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). Foreign currency positively impacted our revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor) by $0.8 million. The change in revenue was driven by a decline in Behavioral Subscription Revenue, partially offset by an increase in Clinical Subscription Revenue. The decline in Behavioral Subscription Revenue was primarily due to a lower number of Incoming Behavioral Subscribers compared to the prior year period. The increase in Clinical Subscription Revenue was primarily due to an increase in the number of Incoming Clinical Subscribers compared to the prior year period. Refer to the “Operating Results” section for further details.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue was $48.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), $3.3 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and $46.5 million for the period from March 30, 2025 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). Foreign currency increased cost of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor) by $0.1 million. The change in cost of revenue was primarily driven by a decrease in revenue and operational efficiency gains across our business offerings from actions taken to reduce our fixed cost base resulting in a more variable cost structure, partially offset by an increase in depreciation and amortization expenses.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was $114.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), $8.9 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and $130.5 million for the period from March 30, 2025 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). Foreign currency positively impacted gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor) by $0.7 million.

Gross margin was 70.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), 73.2% for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and 73.7% for the period from March 30, 2025 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). The gross margin change was primarily due to a mix shift of our subscriber base to Clinical and an increase in depreciation and amortization expenses.

Marketing Expenses

Marketing expenses were $47.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), $2.8 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and $32.1 million for the period from March 30, 2025 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). Foreign currency had a de minimis impact on marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor). The change in marketing expenses was primarily due to a deliberate reduction in advertising spend in the prior year period during our financial reorganization.

Product Development Expenses

Product development expenses were $6.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), $0.7 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and $14.2 million for the period from March 30, 2025 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). Foreign currency had no impact on product development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor). The change in product development expenses was due to an increase in the capitalization rate associated with product and technology initiatives aligned with our website and app rebuild.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $50.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), $2.9 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and $42.9 million for the period from March 30, 2025 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). Foreign currency increased selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor) by $0.1 million. The change in selling, general and administrative expenses was due to an increase in depreciation and amortization expenses, partially offset by a decline in transaction costs related to strategic alternatives and the Chapter 11 financial reorganization of the Company and continued expense discipline.

Reorganization Items, Net

The net reorganization gain of $1,143.9 million for the period from March 30, 2025 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor) related to our emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy and primarily consisted of the gain on settlement of liabilities subject to compromise and the impacts of fresh start valuation adjustments.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $11.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), $0.9 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and $11.1 million for the period from March 30, 2025 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). The change in interest expense was driven by the Chapter 11 financial reorganization and the reduction in Successor debt under the New Term Loan Facility relative to Predecessor debt. The effective interest rate on our debt, based on interest incurred (which includes amortization of our deferred financing costs and debt premium or discount, as applicable) and our average borrowings during each of the respective periods, was 10.48% per annum for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), 11.09% per annum for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and 7.12% per annum for the period from March 30, 2025 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Long-Term Debt” for additional details regarding our debt, including interest rates and payments thereon.

Gain on Extinguishment of Debt

During the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), we recorded a $4.6 million gain on extinguishment of debt resulting from the voluntary retirement of $14.6 million in principal under our New Term Loan Facility. The debt was prepaid in May 2026 for a cash payment of $10.0 million, or 68.5% of par value. For additional details, see “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Long-Term Debt”.

Other (Income) Expense, Net

Other (income) expense, net, which consists primarily of the impact of foreign currency on intercompany transactions, was $0.4 million of income for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), $0.9 million of expense for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and $4.5 million of expense for the period from March 30, 2025 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor).

Benefit from Income Taxes

We historically calculated our interim provision for income taxes by applying an estimated annual effective tax rate (“AETR”) to year-to-date ordinary income or loss. However, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), we determined that small variations in estimated full-year ordinary loss would result in significant, unreliable fluctuations in the estimated AETR. Consequently, pursuant to ASC 740-270, the income tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor) was computed using a discrete effective tax rate method applied to actual year-to-date results.

We recorded a tax benefit of $11.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor) compared to a tax benefit of $0.5 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and a tax benefit of $20.9 million for the period from March 30, 2025 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). The primary difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate and our consolidated effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor) was our valuation allowance on our interest limitation carryforward. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate and our consolidated effective tax rate was our valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets as well as discrete items related to our bankruptcy proceedings during both the Predecessor (ending June 24, 2025) and Successor (ending June 30, 2025) periods.

The adoption of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development’s global tax reform initiative, which introduced a global minimum tax of 15% applicable to large multinational corporations, did not have an impact during the three months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor). In addition, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that was signed into law on July 4, 2025 in the U.S., which contains a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses, did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Operating Results

Although GAAP requires that we report our results for the period from March 30, 2025 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor) and the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) separately, management views certain metric and revenue information for the three months ended June 30, 2025 by combining the results of the applicable Predecessor and Successor periods because management believes such presentation provides the most meaningful comparison of our results to the current period. Although the Predecessor and Successor periods generally are not comparable as they are impacted by fresh start accounting, there are no fresh start adjustments affecting revenue and therefore revenue information has been combined to provide a meaningful understanding of operating trends, which would be consistent with a pro forma calculation under Article 11 of Regulation S-X. Nevertheless, the combined operating results do not reflect the actual results we would have achieved absent our emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases and may not be indicative of future results.

We cannot adequately benchmark the operating results of the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) against any of the previous periods reported in our Consolidated Financial Statements without combining it with the period from March 30, 2025 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor) and do not believe that reviewing the results of this period in isolation would be useful in identifying trends in or reaching conclusions regarding our overall operating performance. Management believes that the key performance metrics such as Subscription Revenue, Incoming and End of Period Subscribers and Monthly Subscription Revenue Per Average Subscriber for the Successor period when combined with the Predecessor period provides more meaningful comparisons to other periods and are useful in identifying current business trends. Accordingly, the tables below present the combined results for the second quarter of fiscal 2025.

Metrics and Business Trends

The following tables set forth key metrics for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 and the percentage change in those metrics versus the combined second quarter of fiscal 2025:

Operating Performance

The decline in Behavioral Subscription Revenue was primarily due to the lower number of Incoming Behavioral Subscribers versus the prior year period and ongoing Behavioral recruitment challenges reflecting secular headwinds. These were partially offset by higher Monthly Subscription Revenue Per Average Subscriber and subscriber growth within our Core+ membership tier compared to the prior year period. The increase in Clinical Subscription Revenue was primarily due to increased consumer awareness of our Med+ membership tier, strong demand for access to lower priced GLP-1 options including the Wegovy pill, and focused marketing investments.

End of Period Clinical Subscribers in the combined second quarter of fiscal 2025 included our former compounded GLP-1 offering, which was discontinued on May 22, 2025.

The change in Total Monthly Subscription Revenue Per Average Subscriber was driven primarily by a shift in mix of our subscriber base to the Clinical business and Core+ membership tier, which have a higher Monthly Subscription Revenue Per Average Subscriber. Clinical Monthly Subscription Revenue Per Average Subscriber declined primarily driven by a shift to longer term commitment plans, which commit members for longer periods, but at a lower rate per month, coupled with the discontinuation of our former compounded semaglutide offering and additional discount promotions within the period.

Consolidated Results of Operations

Revenue

Revenue was $330.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), $12.2 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and $363.6 million for the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). Foreign currency positively impacted our revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor) by $5.1 million. The change in revenue was driven by a decline in Behavioral Subscription Revenue, partially offset by an increase in Clinical Subscription Revenue. The decline in Behavioral Subscription Revenue was primarily due to a lower number of Incoming Behavioral Subscribers compared to the prior year period. The increase in Clinical Subscription Revenue was primarily due to an increase in the number of Incoming Clinical Subscribers compared to the prior year period. Refer to the “Operating Results” section for further details.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue was $97.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), $3.3 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and $100.2 million for the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). Foreign currency increased cost of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor) by $0.7 million. The change in cost of revenue was primarily driven by a decrease in revenue and operational efficiency gains across our business offerings from actions taken to reduce our fixed cost base resulting in a more variable cost structure, partially offset by an increase in depreciation and amortization expenses.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was $232.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), $8.9 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and $263.4 million for the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). Foreign currency positively impacted gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor) by $4.4 million.

Gross margin was 70.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), 73.2% for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and 72.4% for the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). The gross margin change was primarily due to a mix shift of our subscriber base to Clinical and an increase in depreciation and amortization expenses.

Marketing Expenses

Marketing expenses were $140.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), $2.8 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and $110.9 million for the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). Foreign currency increased marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor) by $1.0 million. The change in marketing expenses was primarily due to a deliberate reduction in advertising spend in the prior year period during our financial reorganization.

Product Development Expenses

Product development expenses were $14.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), $0.7 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and $25.3 million for the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). Foreign currency had a de minimis impact on product development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor). The change in product development expenses was due to a reduction in labor costs and an increase in the capitalization rate associated with product and technology initiatives aligned with our website and app rebuild.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $98.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), $2.9 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and $78.5 million for the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). Foreign currency increased selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor) by $0.3 million. The change in selling, general and administrative expenses was due to an increase in depreciation and amortization expenses, partially offset by a decline in transaction costs related to strategic alternatives and the Chapter 11 financial reorganization of the Company and continued expense discipline.

Franchise Rights Acquired Impairments

In performing our interim impairment analysis as of March 29, 2025 (Predecessor), we determined that the carrying value of our United States indefinite-lived franchise rights acquired unit of account exceeded its respective fair value and, as a result, we recorded an impairment charge for our United States unit of account of $27.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 (Predecessor).

Reorganization Items, Net

The net reorganization gain of $1,143.9 million for the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor) related to our emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy and primarily consisted of the gain on settlement of liabilities subject to compromise and the impacts of fresh start valuation adjustments.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $23.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), $0.9 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and $38.7 million for the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). The change in interest expense was driven by the Chapter 11 financial reorganization and the reduction in Successor debt under the New Term Loan Facility relative to Predecessor debt. The effective interest rate on our debt, based on interest incurred (which includes amortization of our deferred financing costs and debt premium or discount, as applicable) and our average borrowings during each of the respective periods, was 10.47% per annum for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), 11.09% per annum for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and 7.14% per annum for the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Long-Term Debt” for additional details regarding our debt, including interest rates and payments thereon.

Gain on Extinguishment of Debt

During the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), we recorded a $4.6 million gain on extinguishment of debt resulting from the voluntary retirement of $14.6 million in principal under our New Term Loan Facility. The debt was prepaid in May 2026 for a cash payment of $10.0 million, or 68.5% of par value. For additional details, see “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Long-Term Debt”.

Other (Income) Expense, Net

Other (income) expense, net, which consists primarily of the impact of foreign currency on intercompany transactions, was $1.2 million of income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), $0.9 million of expense for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and $6.7 million of expense for the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor).

(Benefit from) Provision for Income Taxes

We historically calculated our interim provision for income taxes by applying an estimated AETR to year-to-date ordinary income or loss. However, for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), we determined that small variations in estimated full-year ordinary loss would result in significant, unreliable fluctuations in the estimated AETR. Consequently, pursuant to ASC 740-270, the income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor) was computed using a discrete effective tax rate method applied to actual year-to-date results.

We recorded a tax benefit of $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor) compared to a tax benefit of $0.5 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and tax expense of $1.7 million for the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). The primary difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate and our consolidated effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor) was our valuation allowance on our interest limitation carryforward. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate and our consolidated effective tax rate was our valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets as well as discrete items related to our bankruptcy proceedings during both the Predecessor (ending June 24, 2025) and Successor (ending June 30, 2025) periods.

The adoption of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development’s global tax reform initiative, which introduced a global minimum tax of 15% applicable to large multinational corporations, did not have an impact during the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor). In addition, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that was signed into law on July 4, 2025 in the U.S., which contains a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses, did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Operating Results

Although GAAP requires that we report our results for the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor) and the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) separately, management views certain metric and revenue information for the six months ended June 30, 2025 by combining the results of the applicable Predecessor and Successor periods because management believes such presentation provides the most meaningful comparison of our results to the current period. Although the Predecessor and Successor periods generally are not comparable as they are impacted by fresh start accounting, there are no fresh start adjustments affecting revenue and therefore revenue information has been combined to provide a meaningful understanding of operating trends, which would be consistent with a pro forma calculation under Article 11 of Regulation S-X. Nevertheless, the combined operating results do not reflect the actual results we would have achieved absent our emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases and may not be indicative of future results.

We cannot adequately benchmark the operating results of the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) against any of the previous periods reported in our Consolidated Financial Statements without combining it with the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor) and do not believe that reviewing the results of this period in isolation would be useful in identifying trends in or reaching conclusions regarding our overall operating performance. Management believes that the key performance metrics such as Subscription Revenue, Incoming and End of Period Subscribers and Monthly Subscription Revenue Per Average Subscriber for the Successor period when combined with the Predecessor period provides more meaningful comparisons to other periods and are useful in identifying current business trends. Accordingly, the tables below present the combined results for the first six months of fiscal 2025.

Metrics and Business Trends

The following tables set forth key metrics for the first six months of fiscal 2026 and the percentage change in those metrics versus the combined first six months of fiscal 2025:

Operating Performance

The decline in Behavioral Subscription Revenue was primarily due to the lower number of Incoming Behavioral Subscribers versus the prior year period and ongoing Behavioral recruitment challenges reflecting secular headwinds. These were partially offset by higher Monthly Subscription Revenue Per Average Subscriber and subscriber growth within our Core+ membership tier compared to the prior year period. The increase in Clinical Subscription Revenue was primarily due to increased consumer awareness of our Med+ membership tier, strong demand for access to lower priced GLP-1 options including the Wegovy pill, focused marketing investments during peak season, and the migration of existing Behavioral Subscribers into our Clinical business.

End of Period Clinical Subscribers in the combined first six months of fiscal 2025 included our former compounded GLP-1 offering, which was discontinued on May 22, 2025.

The change in Total Monthly Subscription Revenue Per Average Subscriber was driven primarily by a shift in mix of our subscriber base to the Clinical business and Core+ membership tier, which have a higher Monthly Subscription Revenue Per Average Subscriber. Clinical Monthly Subscription Revenue Per Average Subscriber declined primarily driven by a shift to longer term commitment plans, which commit members for longer periods, but at a lower rate per month, coupled with the discontinuation of our former compounded semaglutide offering and additional discount promotions within the period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We have experienced and expect to continue to experience significant market disruption and competitive pressures, and shifts in consumer behavior in the weight loss category. This includes a rapid adoption of GLP-1 and other medications available as weight-loss options, an evolving regulatory landscape, and significantly increased competition from new entrants. These factors have negatively impacted our business. While the Clinical business is growing, it has not yet been able to offset the declines in the Behavioral business, resulting in decreased revenue overall. Further, we have historically had recurring net losses.

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents and cash flows from operations. Our primary cash needs are funding our operations and global strategic initiatives, meeting debt service requirements and other financing commitments. We had unrestricted cash on hand of $101.5 million as of June 30, 2026. Given our current and forecasted liquidity position, we do not foresee needing access to additional sources of liquidity in the next 12 months.

Balance Sheet Working Capital

Cash Flows

The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the periods presented:

(In millions)

Operating Activities

Net cash used for operating activities was $9.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), net cash provided by operating activities was $11.5 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and net cash used for operating activities was $34.4 million for the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). The change in net cash (used for) provided by operating activities, excluding the impact of the non-cash reorganization items, net, was primarily attributable to a decrease in accounts payable due to the timing of payments.

Investing Activities

Net cash used for investing activities was $11.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), $0.2 million for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and $6.3 million for the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor). The change in net cash used for investing activities was primarily attributable to an increase in capitalized software and website development expenditures.

Financing Activities

Net cash used for financing activities was $36.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), which was attributable to the debt prepayments made in May 2026 and June 2026 as discussed below. There were no financing cash flows for the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor). Net cash provided by financing activities was $153.9 million for the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor), which was primarily attributable to borrowings on the Prepetition Revolving Credit Facility.

Long-Term Debt

We currently plan to meet our long-term debt obligations by using cash flows provided by operating activities and opportunistically using other means to repay or refinance our obligations as we determine appropriate.

The following schedule sets forth our long-term debt obligations as of June 30, 2026 (Successor):

(In millions)

Note: Totals may not sum due to rounding.

Total interest expense on long-term debt, inclusive of amortization of deferred financing costs and debt premium, amounted to $12.0 million and $24.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), respectively. In the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor), total interest expense on long-term debt, inclusive of amortization of deferred financing costs, amounted to $0.9 million. Total interest expense on long-term debt, inclusive of amortization of deferred financing costs and debt discounts, amounted to $11.1 million and $38.7 million for the period from March 30, 2025 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor) and the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor), respectively.

As of June 30, 2026 (Successor) and December 31, 2025 (Successor), our debt consisted of variable-rate instruments. The weighted average interest rate (which includes amortization of deferred financing costs and debt premium) on our outstanding debt was approximately 10.47% and 10.91% per annum at June 30, 2026 (Successor) and December 31, 2025 (Successor), respectively, based on interest rates on these dates.

Senior Secured Credit Agreement

In connection with our emergence from bankruptcy, on June 24, 2025 we, as borrower, the lenders party thereto, and WSFS, as administrative agent, entered into a senior secured credit agreement (the “Senior Secured Credit Agreement”) which provides for the New Term Loan Facility.

The New Term Loan Facility bears a variable interest rate based on either (1) the sum of (x) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) 0.50% per annum plus the Federal Funds Effective Rate (as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement), (b) the prime rate announced by WSFS and (c) one-month Term SOFR plus 1.00%; provided that such rate is not lower than a floor of 1.50%, plus (y) 5.80% per annum, or (2) the sum of (x) Term SOFR plus (y) 6.80% per annum, provided that Term SOFR is not lower than a floor of 0.50%.

All obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement are guaranteed by, subject to certain exceptions, each of our current and future material subsidiaries. All obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement, and the guarantees of those obligations, are or will be secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and each guarantor organized in the United States, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands (each, a “Secured Guarantor”).

In May 2026, we made a voluntary prepayment of $10.0 million in cash to prepay a portion of our New Term Loan Facility at 68.5% of par, thus reducing the outstanding principal on our New Term Loan Facility by $14.6 million. As a result of this prepayment, we recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt of $4.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026.

We are required to prepay (a) 100% of the unrestricted cash held by us and our subsidiaries in excess of $100.0 million applicable to the last 10 calendar days of the first quarter of each fiscal year, (b) 100% of the proceeds from the sale of certain assets and proceeds of certain casualty events, and (c) 100% of incurrence of any new debt proceeds unless such incurrence is permitted under the credit agreement. Other than the mandatory prepayments of excess unrestricted cash as described above, we are also required to pay a prepayment premium of: (a) for the first eighteen months following the Emergence Date, 2.00% of the aggregate principal amount of prepayments or refinancings of the New Term Loan Facility in excess of $200.0 million, (b) from the eighteen-month anniversary of the Emergence Date to the second anniversary of the Emergence Date, 2.00% of the aggregate principal amount of prepayments or refinancings of the New Term Loan Facility, and (c) from the second anniversary of the Emergence Date to the third anniversary of the Emergence Date, 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of prepayments or refinancings of the New Term Loan Facility. All prepayments of the principal balance of outstanding loans under the New Term Loan Facility are subject to customary “breakage” costs with respect to Term SOFR loans under the New Term Loan Facility. Accordingly, in June 2026, we made our annual cash sweep prepayment of $26.8 million to prepay a portion of our New Term Loan Facility at par.

Refer to “—Emergence from Bankruptcy” for additional information.

Dividends and Stock Transactions

We do not currently pay a dividend and we have no current plans to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination to declare and pay dividends will be made at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors, after taking into account our financial condition and results of operations, capital requirements, contractual, legal, tax and regulatory restrictions, the provisions of Virginia law affecting the payment of distributions to shareholders and such other factors our Board of Directors may deem relevant. In addition, our ability to pay dividends may be limited by covenants in our existing indebtedness, including the Senior Secured Credit Agreement, and may be limited by the agreements governing other indebtedness we or our subsidiaries incur in the future.

On October 9, 2003, our Board of Directors authorized, and we announced, a program to repurchase up to $250.0 million of our outstanding common stock, which allows for shares to be purchased from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions and has no expiration date. On each of June 13, 2005, May 25, 2006 and October 21, 2010, our Board of Directors authorized, and we announced, the addition of $250.0 million to this program, of which $208.9 million remained unutilized as of June 30, 2026 (Successor). During the six months ended June 30, 2026 (Successor), the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor) and the period from December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor), we repurchased no shares of our common stock under this program. Notwithstanding the foregoing terms, we do not expect to conduct any repurchases of our common stock under this pre-bankruptcy authorized share repurchase program. We expect future share repurchases, if any, to be made under a new or modified share repurchase program authorized by our Board of Directors. Any future determination to enact a share repurchase program will be made at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors, after taking into account our financial condition and results of operations, capital requirements, contractual, legal, tax and regulatory restrictions, the applicable provisions of Virginia law and such other factors our Board of Directors may deem relevant. In addition, our ability to repurchase shares of our common stock may be limited by covenants in our existing indebtedness agreements and may be limited by the agreements governing other indebtedness we or our subsidiaries incur in the future.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

The table below sets forth the reconciliations for EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, each a non-GAAP financial measure, to net income (loss), the most comparable GAAP financial measure, for the periods presented:

(In millions)

Note: Totals may not sum due to rounding.

(1) Primarily consists of the impact of foreign exchange gains and losses.

We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we consider them to be useful supplemental measures of our performance and useful for period-over-period comparisons. In addition, we believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful to investors and analysts. See “—Non-GAAP Financial Measures” herein for an explanation of our use of these non-GAAP financial measures.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As part of our ongoing business, we do not participate in arrangements that generate relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities.

SEASONALITY

Our business is seasonal due to the importance of the winter season to our overall member recruitment environment. Historically, we have experienced our highest level of recruitment during the first quarter of the year, which is supported with the highest concentration of advertising spending. Therefore, our number of End of Period Subscribers in the first quarter of the year has been typically higher than the number in other quarters of the year, historically reflecting a decline over the course of the year.

AVAILABLE INFORMATION

Corporate information and our press releases, Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, and amendments thereto, are available free of charge on our corporate website at corporate.ww.com as soon as reasonably practicable after such material is electronically filed with or furnished to the SEC. We also make available at that site the Section 16 reports filed electronically by our officers, directors and 10 percent shareholders.

We use our corporate website at corporate.ww.com and certain social media channels such as our Instagram account (Instagram.com/weightwatchers), corporate Facebook page (www.facebook.com/weightwatchers (http://www.facebook.com/weightwatchers)), X account (@ww_us) and LinkedIn page (www.linkedin.com/company/weightwatchers (http://www.linkedin.com/company/weightwatchers)) as channels of distribution of Company information.

The contents of our website and social media channels shall not be deemed to be incorporated herein by reference.

As of June 30, 2026 (Successor), the market risk disclosures appearing in “Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2025 have not materially changed from December 31, 2025 (Successor).

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officers (members of the Interim Office of the Chief Executive) and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officers (members of the Interim Office of the Chief Executive) and our principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2026, the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2026. Based upon that evaluation and subject to the foregoing, our principal executive officers (members of the Interim Office of the Chief Executive) and our principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2026, the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

There have been no material changes in the risk factors from those detailed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2025 other than as set forth below.

We are undergoing a chief executive officer transition, which could cause disruption to our business, and our failure to appoint a new chief executive officer with the required level of experience and expertise in a timely manner could have an adverse impact on our operations and business strategy as well as the public or market perception of our business.

In March 2026, Tara Comonte resigned as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Effective April 3, 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors appointed Felicia DellaFortuna, our Chief Financial Officer, and Jonathan Volkmann, our Chief Operations Officer, to serve as members of the Interim Office of the Chief Executive until such time as the Company appoints a permanent President and Chief Executive Officer. We are in the process of searching for a new chief executive officer. However, if we are unsuccessful in appointing a chief executive officer with the required level of experience and expertise in a timely manner, our operations and business strategy could be materially and adversely affected. Any significant leadership change or executive management transition involves inherent risk and can be difficult to manage. It may involve a diversion of resources and management attention, be disruptive to our daily operations, make it more difficult to hire and retain key employees, impact public or market perception or hinder progress on key strategic initiatives, any of which could have a negative impact on our business or stock price.

Any failure of our technology or systems to perform satisfactorily could result in an adverse impact on our business.

We rely on software, hardware, network systems and similar technology, including cloud-based technology, that is either developed by us or licensed from or maintained by third parties to operate our websites and platforms, subscription product offerings, and other services and products such as the recurring billing system associated with our commitment plans, and to support our business operations. As much of this technology is complex, there may be future errors, defects or performance problems, including when we update our technology or integrate new technology to expand and enhance our capabilities. Our technology may malfunction or suffer from defects or misconfigurations, and such vulnerabilities may only become apparent after extended use. The integrity of our technology may also be compromised as a result of third-party cyber-attacks, such as hacking, spear phishing campaigns and denial of service (DOS) attacks, which are negatively impacting companies. Cyber threats and the techniques used in cyber-attacks are becoming more sophisticated and evolving rapidly, particularly through the use of advanced artificial intelligence techniques, which are already accelerating vulnerability discovery, social engineering, and attack automation. While longer-term risks may emerge from advances in computational capabilities such as quantum computing, these are not expected to impact our systems in the near term. Cyber-attacks can originate from a variety of sources, including third-parties affiliated with foreign governments, organized crime or terrorist organizations, and malicious individuals both outside and inside a targeted company. In addition, our operations depend on our ability to protect our information technology systems against damage from third-party cyber-attacks, fire, power loss, water, earthquakes, telecommunications failures and similar unexpected adverse events. Disruptions in our websites, apps, services and products or network systems could result from a number of factors, including unknown technical defects, insufficient capacity, the failure of our third-party providers to provide continuous and uninterrupted service and unusual volume in traffic for our platforms. Such disruptions would be most impactful if they occurred during peak activity periods and may impact accessibility to our services and products. While we maintain disaster recovery capabilities to return to normal operation in a timely manner, and we deploy multiple parallel instances of our applications across multiple computer resources, we do not have a fully redundant system that includes an instantaneous recovery capability. In the event we experience significant disruptions, we may be unable to repair our systems in an efficient and timely manner, and such system downtime could have an adverse impact on our business.

As a result of such possible defects, failures, interruptions, system downtime or other problems, our services and products could be rendered unreliable or be perceived as unreliable by customers, which could result in harm to our reputation and brands. Any failure of our technology or systems could result in an adverse impact on our business.

Our business depends on the effectiveness and efficiency of our advertising and marketing programs across multiple platforms, including digital marketing and social media platforms, to attract and retain members and subscribers.

Our business success depends on our ability to attract and retain members and subscribers, which depends significantly on the effectiveness and efficiency of our advertising and marketing practices across multiple platforms. For example, if our advertising and marketing programs are not effective and fail to attract sufficient recruitments during the first quarter of the fiscal year, our most important period for recruitments, it could have, and in the past has had, an outsized negative impact on our performance for the remainder of the year. Our competitors may create more compelling marketing campaigns or marketing campaigns that appeal to more diverse audiences, or may devote greater financial and other resources to marketing and advertising, which could drive our current and potential members and subscribers to our competitors.

We rely significantly on paid digital marketing channels, primarily Google and Meta (Facebook and Instagram), to acquire new members and subscribers. These platforms regularly update their proprietary algorithms, ad placement criteria, and content guidelines. Any changes to their algorithms, indexing methods, or policies could adversely impact the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns, thereby decreasing traffic to our platform and significantly increasing our customer acquisition costs.

Additionally, our marketing initiatives may become increasingly expensive and generating a meaningful return on those initiatives may be difficult. In addition, from time-to-time, we use the success stories of our members and subscribers, and utilize brand ambassadors, spokespersons and social media influencers, including in some cases celebrities, in our advertising and marketing programs to communicate on a personal level with consumers. Actions taken by these individuals that harm their personal reputation or image, or include the cessation of using our services and products, could have an adverse impact on the advertising and marketing campaigns in which they are featured. We and our brand ambassadors, spokespersons and social media influencers also use social media channels as a means of communicating with consumers. Unauthorized or inappropriate use of, or content on, these channels could result in harmful publicity or negative consumer experiences, which could have an adverse impact on the effectiveness of our marketing in these channels, our reputation and our ability to attract and retain members, subscribers and strategic partners. In addition, any resulting substantial negative commentary by others, whether on traditional or social media platforms, could have an adverse impact on our reputation and ability to attract and retain members, subscribers and strategic partners. If our advertising and marketing campaigns do not generate a sufficient number of members and subscribers, or fail to develop a high level of engagement with current and potential members and subscribers on various platforms, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected.
