Reiterates Fiscal 2023 Guidance

CFO Transition

Solo Brands, Inc. (NYSE:DTC) ("Solo Brands" or "the Company") an omni-channel platform of beloved brands Solo Stove, Chubbies, Oru Kayak, ISLE, and Icy Breeze today announced that Somer Webb, Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), has notified the Company of her intent to pursue other opportunities. Ms. Webb will remain with the Company until December 10, 2023. The Company has engaged an executive search firm to assist in identifying her successor.

The Company has also announced Andrea Tarbox will assume the role of Interim CFO beginning on December 10, 2023. Ms. Tarbox serves on the board of directors of Solo Brands and chairs the audit committee. Ms. Tarbox brings extensive experience in the CFO role. Her 20 years of service in various CFO roles include 12 years at KapStone Paper and Packaging, Inc. (NYSE:KS) where she helped lead KapStone's successful sale to WestRock Company (NYSE:WRK) in 2018. Upon assuming the Interim CFO position, Ms. Tarbox will step down temporarily from her role as chair of the audit committee.

"We appreciate Somer's contributions to our organization and wish her well in her future endeavors. We are fortunate to have Ms. Tarbox in our organization. She is an experienced financial executive whose knowledge of the Company will enable her to successfully lead our financial function through this interim period," said John Merris, Chief Executive Officer.

Ms. Webb said, "I want to thank the Board and the leadership team for the time at Solo Brands and I wish the team continued success."

Solo Brands Reaffirms Guidance for Fiscal Year 2023

The Company reaffirms its guidance and continues to expect revenue for the full fiscal year of 2023 in the range of $520 to $540 million, with the most likely outcome at the midpoint of the range at $530 million, and adjusted EBITDA* margin in the range of 17% to 18%.

The Company's full year 2023 guidance is based on a number of assumptions that are subject to change, many of which are outside the Company's control. If actual results vary from these assumptions, the Company's expectations may change. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve these results.

* The Company has not provided a quantitative reconciliation of forecasted adjusted EBITDA margin to forecasted GAAP net income (loss) margin as a percent of net sales, respectively, within this press release because the Company is unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to calculate certain reconciling items with confidence. These items include, but are not limited to, equity-based compensation with respect to future grants and forfeitures, which could materially affect the computation of forward-looking GAAP net income, and are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, some of which are outside of the Company's control.

All statements contained in this press release that do not relate to matters of historical fact should be considered forward-looking statements, including without limitation statements regarding future management changes for the Company, expectations of achieving long-term profitability and our anticipated GAAP and non-GAAP guidance for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.
