The Honest Company Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Financial Results

LOS ANGELES, March 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Honest Company (NASDAQ: HNST), a digitally-native consumer products company born in the Gen Z era to make purpose-driven consumer products designed for all people, today reported fourth quarter and full year 2022 financial results for the year ended December 31, 2022.

“Honest’s mission to provide purpose-driven and purpose-designed products that reflect an ever-diversifying set of consumers is as meaningful today as when it was launched 11 years ago. Since joining Honest, just over two months ago, I’ve been impressed with the quality of the products, the strength of the brand, and the commitment of our teams and partners,” said Chief Executive Officer, Carla Vernón. “Honest is a brand with a demonstrated ability to deliver mission-driven innovation and lead growth with the high-quality products our consumers love and value. That legacy will remain our North Star as we build a glide path to a stronger and more profitable Honest in 2024.”

Fourth Quarter 2022 Highlights:

• Revenue growth was 2% in the quarter, driven by strong retail consumption, distribution gains, and price increases, partially offset by a decline in Digital revenue
• Consumption of Honest diapers, wipes, skin, and personal care increased by 15% versus prior year⁽¹⁾
• Gross margin of 27.5% reflected a 250 basis point decline versus the fourth quarter of 2021, reflecting significantly higher product and fulfillment costs

Fourth Quarter Results
(All comparisons are versus the fourth quarter of 2021)

This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” at the end of this press release for more information.

Revenue increased 2% to $81.9 million, driven by strong retail consumption, distribution gains, and price increases, partially offset by a decline in the Digital business.

Revenue by Product Category

	For the three months ended December 31,
		2022			2021			% change
(In thousands, except percentages)
Diapers and Wipes	$	50,017		$	49,672			1		%
Skin and Personal Care		22,783			26,211			(13	)
Household and Wellness		9,059			4,498			101
Total Revenue	$	81,859		$	80,381			2		%

_______________________

• Diapers and Wipes: Revenue from Diapers and Wipes (61% of total fourth quarter 2022 revenue) increased 1% as the benefit of price increases and strong retail performance was mostly offset by a decline in the Digital channel.

• Skin and Personal Care: Revenue from Skin and Personal Care (28% of total fourth quarter 2022 revenue) decreased 13% due to a key digital partner reducing orders. This decline was partially offset by strong retail performance.

• Household and Wellness: Revenue from Household and Wellness (11% of total fourth quarter 2022 revenue) increased 101% driven by the integration of Honest Baby Clothing in the third quarter of 2022.

Revenue by Channel

	For the three months ended December 31,
		2022			2021		% change
(In thousands, except percentages)
Digital	$	35,490		$	41,151		(14	)	%
Retail		46,369			39,230		18
Total Revenue	$	81,859		$	80,381		2		%

	For the three months ended December 31,
	2022			2021
(As a percentage of revenue)
Digital	43	%		51	%
Retail	57	%		49	%
Total Revenue	100	%		100	%

Digital revenue decreased 14% as customer orders lagged consumption and we shifted marketing spend to higher return opportunities to support retail expansion.

Retail revenue increased 18% as a result of new distribution at several retailers and strong growth at our largest customer due to increased traffic.

Gross margin was 27.5% in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to 30.0% in the fourth quarter of 2021 due to higher fulfillment and product costs. In addition, gross margin reflected a $2.5 million impact related to inventory write-offs and reserves, primarily for our sanitization products, which reduced gross margin by approximately 300 basis points.

Operating expenses increased $2.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, including $5.8 million in CEO transition expenses and $1.0 million in legal fees related to securities litigation claims. Marketing expense was lower versus fourth quarter of 2021, as increased marketing efficiency drove a shift away from digital marketing toward higher-return investments supporting recent retail distribution expansion.

Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $12.6 million, compared to net loss of $9.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2022 was negative $1.6 million. See the reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, to net loss in the table at the end of this press release.

2022 Business Highlights:

• Growing consumption:
  • 12% total consumption growth and market share gains across Honest diapers, wipes, skin & personal care⁽¹⁾

• Retail leadership and distribution growth:
  • 23 point increase in ACV from 49% to 72% in national multi-outlet stores⁽²⁾
  • 16% increase in retail store presence (from 43,000 to 50,000 locations)⁽³⁾
  • 2,500 new Walmart locations and presence in all Publix stores as we expand our geographic footprint in the US Southeast region

  • #1 baby personal care brand at Target⁽⁴⁾
  • Overtook #1 natural/lifestyle diaper brand position at Kroger in fourth quarter of 2022⁽⁵⁾

Full Year 2022 Results
(All comparisons are versus full year 2021)

Revenue of $314 million, which landed within the Company’s outlook range, decreased 2%, driven by a decline in Skin and Personal Care, and Diapers and Wipes, which was partially offset by growth in Household and Wellness. Despite strong consumption trends, Digital channel revenue decreased 10% driven by a reduction in shipments to a key digital partner and lower traffic to Honest.com. This decline was partially offset by Retail channel revenue growth of 7%, driven by increased retail distribution, price increases, and expanded assortment of our products at our retail partners.

Gross margin decreased approximately 480 basis points to 29.4%, driven by inflationary pressures in product and fulfillment costs, and higher trade spending to support retail distribution gains, partially offset by price increases and cost savings.

Operating expenses decreased 3% due to lower marketing expense, as advertising spending was shifted from the Digital channel to support retail expansion.

Net loss was $49.0 million compared to net loss of $38.7 million during the full year of 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ was negative $22.5 million, compared to negative Adjusted EBITDA of $3.5 million for the full year 2021. See the reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, to net loss in the table at the end of this press release.
____________________

^{(1) We do not provide guidance for the most directly comparable GAAP measure, net loss, and similarly cannot provide a reconciliation between our adjusted EBITDA outlook and net loss without unreasonable effort due to the unavailability of reliable estimates for certain components of net loss, including interest and other (income) expense, net, and the respective reconciliations. These items are not within our control and may vary greatly between periods and could significantly impact our financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP.}

Chief Executive Officer Carla Vernón commented, “I firmly believe that Honest is a powerful brand that resonates with a broad cross-section of consumers. We are not satisfied with the revenue and margin results announced today. We do not believe they reflect the strength and potential of the Honest brand. In 2023, we will be relentlessly focused on taking actions and defining a strategy to set us up to be a stronger, more profitable Company in 2024 and beyond.”

Full Year 2023

Without taking into consideration the margin improvement roadmap that we that are currently formulating, we anticipate our full year 2023 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA would be in-line with our Fiscal Year 2022 results.

Cash/Balance Sheet

The Company ended the fourth quarter of 2022 with $15.2 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. This cash balance reflects a net loss in the quarter, as well as an additional investment in inventory in advance of supplier price increases that took effect in early 2023. The Company had no debt on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2022.

To provide financial flexibility and to support continued growth investments in the business, the Company entered into a $35.0 million asset-based lending agreement in January 2023. The Company plans to aggressively manage its working capital, including reducing inventory by an estimated $20 million by year-end.  

2023 Annual Stockholders Meeting

The Board of Directors set March 27, 2023 as the record date for the Company’s 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders will be held on May 24, 2023.

The Honest Company, Inc.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We prepare and present our condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. However, management believes that adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, provide investors with additional useful information in evaluating our performance.

We calculate adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude: (1) interest and other (income) expense, net; (2) income tax provision; (3) depreciation and amortization; (4) stock-based compensation expense, including payroll tax; (5) the IPO bonus in the second quarter of 2021, including associated payroll taxes and expenses, and third-party costs associated with our IPO in 2021; (6) litigation and settlement fees associated with certain non-ordinary course securities litigation claims; and (7) CEO transition expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is not required by, or presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that adjusted EBITDA, when taken together with our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our operating performance and facilitates internal comparisons of our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our business, results of operations or outlook. In particular, we believe that the use of adjusted EBITDA is helpful to our investors as it is a measure used by management in assessing the health of our business, determining incentive compensation and evaluating our operating performance, as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes.

Adjusted EBITDA is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Some of the limitations of adjusted EBITDA include that (1) it does not reflect capital commitments to be paid in the future; (2) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the underlying assets may need to be replaced and adjusted EBITDA does not reflect these capital expenditures; (3) it does not consider the impact of stock-based compensation expense; (4) it does not reflect other non-operating expenses, including interest expense; (5) it does not include the IPO bonus, including associated payroll taxes and expenses, or third-party costs associated with the preparation of the IPO; (6) it does not reflect tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us; and (7) does not include certain non-ordinary cash expenses that we do not believe are representative of our business on a steady-state basis, such as CEO transition expenses. In addition, our use of adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate adjusted EBITDA in the same manner, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these limitations, when evaluating our performance, you should consider adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial measures, including our net income (loss), revenue and other results stated in accordance with GAAP.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income (loss), the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP, to adjusted EBITDA, for each of the periods presented:
