Updates Full-Year 2022 Guidance

NEW YORK, Nov. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Thorne HealthTech, Inc. ("Thorne HealthTech", "Thorne" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:THRN), a leader in developing personalized, innovative solutions that empower individuals to live healthier, longer lives, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Third Quarter Highlights:

Net sales grew 21.7% year-over-year to $58.4 million, with direct-to-consumer ("DTC") sales growth of 47.2%
Gross profit grew 10.3% year-over-year to $28.2 million; gross margin decreased 500 basis points year-over-year to 48.2%
Net income attributable to common stockholders grew to $3.7 million; adjusted EBITDA grew to $8.3 million
Diluted earnings per share ("EPS") of $0.07; adjusted diluted EPS of $0.12

"People trust Thorne to support their daily wellness journeys because of the personalization we offer, the science behind our portfolio of solutions including our health tests and supplements, and our unmatched quality standards," said Paul Jacobson, Thorne HealthTech's chairman and CEO. "For these reasons, our high-end customer base has thus far been resilient. We saw no major changes in purchasing behavior and achieved record sales for the quarter driven by DTC channel growth of 47%. Our gross margins softened from proactive early actions, to secure a large supply of ingredients typically associated with lower margin products, in order to ensure product continuity for our customers ahead of anticipated supply chain risks. That decision allowed us to aggressively sell into a heightened demand environment as those risks materialized, increasing our brand awareness through product availability."

Mr. Jacobson added, "We also made further strides bringing our OneDraw blood sample collection device into the home. In August, we achieved a major milestone by receiving DTC medical device clearance from Japanese regulators, while continuing to work towards DTC clearance in the U.S. We believe these clearances will offer significant business development opportunities, long-term. Our solid financial performance, continued efficiency gains from scale and recent cutting-edge developments will allow us to continue our long history of profitable growth and further strengthen our positioning heading into next year."

Cost of Sales and Gross Profit

The following tables provide a summary of cost of sales and gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021:

Gross profit	$	89,661	$	71,672	$	17,989		25.1	%		53.0	%		52.9	%

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the increase in cost of sales and decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales was primarily from (i) the sell-through of higher cost inventory that included raw materials purchased ahead of demand to mitigate against potential supply chain disruptions and (ii) the strength of sales that contribute lower gross profit margins because of our ability to meet demand utilizing our sources in an otherwise challenging market.

Operating Expenses

The following tables provide a summary of select operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021:

The decrease in marketing as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily from the timing of the Company's major brand campaigns, which primarily occurred during the second quarter of 2022 instead of the comparative third quarter of 2021.

Key Financial and Operating Data

To provide investors with additional information regarding its financial results, the Company has provided certain key financial and operating data metrics in this press release, including life-time value (LTV), customer acquisition costs (CAC), LTV to CAC ratio and number of subscriptions.

The Company defines LTV to CAC as LTV from a specific 12-month period divided by the CAC of a specific period. LTV is defined as the average gross contribution per purchasing DTC customer within a particular 12-month period divided by one less the customer retention rate (Churn Rate) during the same period. Average gross contribution is defined as the cumulative revenue from our DTC customers during a 12-month period, less the cost of goods, divided by the number of purchasing DTC customers in the same period. To arrive at the LTV for a particular period, the Company divides the average gross contribution by that period's Churn Rate. CAC is defined as the total advertising and marketing expenses, less headcount expenses and associated benefit expenses, in a particular period divided by the number of customers who placed their first order during that same timeframe.

The Company defines subscriptions as orders resulting from direct-to-consumer (DTC) customers opting into automatic refills or orders that are recurring on Thorne.com and Amazon.com. Subscription programs on both platforms offer automatic ordering, payment and delivery of the products to a customer's doorstep.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To provide investors with additional information regarding its financial results, the Company has provided certain financial measures that are not recognized under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in this press release, including: earnings or loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share.

The Company calculates EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net income or loss excluding depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net and income taxes. EBITDA margin represents EBITDA as a percentage of net sales. The Company calculates adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, by further excluding non-cash items for stock-based compensation expenses, change in fair value of warrant liability, loss on Drawbridge step acquisition, loss on Drawbridge Transaction, guarantee fees, income or loss from equity interests in unconsolidated affiliates and transaction costs related to mergers and acquisitions. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales. The Company calculates adjusted net income or loss, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net income or loss excluding (i) stock-based compensation expenses, change in fair value of warrant liability, loss on Drawbridge step acquisition, loss on Drawbridge transaction, guarantee fees, income or loss from equity in unconsolidated affiliates and transaction costs related to mergers and acquisitions and (ii) utilizing an adjusted provision for income taxes based on the Company's estimate of applicable statutory rates.

EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share should be viewed as measures of operating performance that are supplements to, and not substitutes for, operating income or loss, net income or loss and other GAAP measures of income and loss. The Company has included EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income or loss and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share in this press release because they are key measures used by the Company's management to evaluate and compare the Company's financial and operational performance over multiple periods, identifying trends affecting the Company's business, formulating business plans and making strategic decisions. In particular, the exclusion of certain expenses or income in calculating adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss) facilitates operating performance comparability across reporting periods by removing the effect of non-cash expenses and certain non-recurring variable charges. In addition, the Company believes that providing each of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income or loss, together with a reconciliation of net income or loss to each such measure, helps investors make comparisons between Thorne HealthTech and other companies that may have different capital structures, different tax rates and different forms of employee compensation. Each of EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income or loss and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share has inherent limitations because of the excluded items, and may not be directly comparable to similarly titled metrics used by other companies.

The Company has not reconciled the forward-looking adjusted EBITDA and adjusted diluted EPS guidance included in this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP measures because this cannot be done without unreasonable effort due to the variability and low visibility with respect to certain costs, the most significant of which are incentive compensation (including stock-based compensation), certain fair value measurements, acquisition transactions and integration, tax items and others that may arise during the year, each of which are potential adjustments to future earnings. The Company expects the variability of these items to have a potentially unpredictable, and a potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.
