Management Commentary

"We closed the third quarter with momentum following an impressive showing at the 2023 CEDIA Expo that reinforced our leadership position in the smart living industry," said Snap One CEO John Heyman. "In partnership with our integrators, we're delivering innovation in our products, solutions, and service models that we believe are enhancing integrator operational efficiency and improving consumer satisfaction with the experiences our partners deliver. We continue to believe that an aligned partnership between manufacturer, integrator, and end consumer is the key to unlocking the full potential of the smart living opportunity."

"Reflecting on our financial performance, our team delivered solid results in the third quarter. Despite continued channel inventory destocking headwinds and macro uncertainty, we believe our integrators are continuing to see stable demand drivers and, in turn, are choosing our solutions, highlighting the resiliency of our business model and success of our new products. Further, we drove key margin enhancement initiatives, which allowed us to deliver improved profitability in the quarter on a year-over-year basis. We also continued to execute our plan to right-size inventory levels, enabling us to fully repay our revolving credit facility and to strengthen our liquidity position as we plan for 2024 and beyond."

Stock Repurchase Program

On May 12, 2022, Snap One announced that its Board of Directors had approved a stock repurchase program that authorized potential repurchases of up to $25 million of its common stock from the date of approval through the end of 2023. On November 6, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors amended the stock repurchase program to extend its expiration date to December 31, 2024. Under the repurchase program, the Company may purchase shares of common stock on a discretionary basis from time to time through open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions or other means, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans or through the use of other techniques such as tender offers or accelerated share repurchases. Snap One expects to fund the repurchase with its existing cash balance and cash generated from operations.

As of September 29, 2023, the Company had repurchased 296,467 shares of its common stock through this program for an aggregate amount of $3.1 million.

Fiscal 2023 Financial Outlook

"Heading into the end of the year, we are continuing to maintain our focus on increasing profitability while investing prudently for growth," Heyman continued. "Our enhanced liquidity position underscores this commitment and provides us additional flexibility to operate the business in response to the dynamic macroeconomic environment."

"We are narrowing the range of our outlook for both net sales and adjusted EBITDA for 2023. We now expect net sales in the fiscal year ending December 29, 2023 to range between $1.06 billion and $1.07 billion and adjusted EBITDA¹ to range between $110 million and $116 million. This outlook considers our performance through the first nine months of 2023 as well as our expectation that an inherent level of market uncertainty will continue for the foreseeable future. We continue to believe in the long-term secular growth of the smart living opportunity."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures, including contribution margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and free cash flow. A non-GAAP financial measure is generally defined as a numerical measure of a company's financial or operating performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We use the following non-GAAP measures to help us monitor the performance of our business, identify trends affecting our business and assist us in making strategic decisions:

Contribution margin, which is defined as net sales less cost of sales, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, divided by net sales.

Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as net loss, plus interest expense, income tax benefit, depreciation and amortization, other income, net further adjusted to exclude equity-based compensation, acquisition- and integration-related costs and certain other non-recurring, non-core, infrequent or unusual charges as set forth in the reconciliation in this section below.

Adjusted net income, which is defined as net loss plus amortization further adjusted to exclude equity-based compensation, acquisition- and integration-related costs, (income) expense related to interest rate cap and certain non-recurring, non-core, infrequent or unusual charges, including the estimated tax impacts of these adjustments as set forth in the reconciliation in this section below.

Free cash flow, which is defined as net cash (used in) provided by operating activities less capital expenditures (which consist of purchases of property and equipment as well as purchases of information technology, software development and leasehold improvements).

Contribution margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and free cash flow are key measures used by management to understand and evaluate our financial performance, trends and generate future operating plans, make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital, and analyze investments in initiatives that are focused on cultivating new markets for our products and services. We believe contribution margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and free cash flow are useful measurements for analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our markets as they help identify underlying trends that could otherwise be masked by certain expenses that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing performance.

Contribution margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and free cash flow have limitations as analytical tools. These measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, contribution margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled metrics of other companies due to differences among the methods of calculation.

(a) Represents expense, net of forfeitures, related to payments to certain pre-IPO owners in lieu of their participation in the Tax Receivable Agreement entered into on July 29, 2021 ("TRA"). Management does not believe such costs are indicative of our ongoing operations as they are one-time awards specific to the establishment of the TRA.

(b) Represents costs associated with the implementation of enterprise resource planning systems, customer resource management systems, and business intelligence systems as part of our initiative to modernize our information technology ("IT") infrastructure.

(c) Represents noncash gains and losses recorded from fair value adjustments related to contingent value right ("CVR") liabilities. Fair value adjustments related to CVR liabilities represent potential obligations to the prior sellers in conjunction with the acquisition of the Company by investment funds managed by Hellman & Friedman, LLC ("H&F") in August 2017.

(d) Severance cost associated with various restructuring actions such as warehouse relocation, departmental reorganization and focused reduction in workforce.

(e) Represents expenses incurred related to deferred payments to employees associated with historical acquisitions. The deferred payments are cash retention awards for key personnel from the acquired companies and are expected to be paid to employees through 2023. Management does not believe such costs are indicative of our ongoing operations as they are one-time awards specific to acquisitions and are incremental to our typical compensation costs incurred and we do not expect such costs to be reflective of future increases in base compensation expense.

(f) Represents costs directly associated with acquisitions and acquisition-related integration activities. These costs also include certain restructuring costs (e.g., severance) and other third-party transaction advisory fees associated with planned and completed acquisitions.

(g) Represents provision for credit losses on notes receivable related to the Company's unsecured loan to Clare.

(h) Represents an adjustment related to the fair value of deferred revenue related to the Control4 Corporation acquisition.

(i) Represents professional service fees associated with the preparation for compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act ("SOX"), the implementation of new accounting standards and accounting for non-recurring transactions.

(j) Represents non-recurring expenses related to consulting, restructuring, and other expenses which management believes are not representative of our operating performance.

(k) Represents the tax impacts with respect to each adjustment noted above after taking into account the impact of permanent differences using the statutory tax rate related to the applicable federal and foreign jurisdictions and the blended state tax rate.

¹ We have not reconciled the forward-looking adjusted EBITDA guidance included above to the most directly comparable GAAP measure 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), transaction-related expenses, and certain value measurements, which are potential adjustments to future earnings. We expect the variability of these items to have a potentially unpredictable, and a potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.
