WW INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLID ATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AND PER UNIT AMOUNTS)
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of WW International, Inc. and all of its subsidiaries. The terms “Company” and “WW” as used throughout these notes are used to indicate WW International, Inc. and all of its operations consolidated for purposes of its financial statements. The Company’s “Digital” business refers to providing subscriptions to the Company’s digital product offerings, including Personal Coaching + Digital and Digital 360 as applicable. The Company’s “Workshops + Digital” business refers to providing unlimited access to the Company’s workshops combined with the Company’s digital subscription product offerings to commitment plan subscribers, including former Digital 360 members as applicable. It also includes the provision of access to workshops for members who do not subscribe to commitment plans, including the Company’s “pay-as-you-go” members. In the second quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company ceased offering its Digital 360 product. More than a majority of associated members were transitioned from the Company’s Digital business to its Workshops + Digital business during the second quarter of fiscal 2022, with a de minimis number transitioning during the beginning of the third quarter of fiscal 2022. The cessation of this product offering and these transitions of former Digital 360 members at the then-current pricing for such product impacted the number of End of Period Subscribers in each business as well as the associated Paid Weeks and Revenues for each business.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and include amounts that are based on management’s best estimates and judgments. While all available information has been considered, actual amounts could differ from those estimates. These assumptions and estimates may change as new events occur and additional information is obtained, and such future changes may have an adverse impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position and liquidity. The consolidated financial statements include all of the Company’s majority-owned subsidiaries. All entities acquired, and any entity of which a majority interest was acquired, are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s operating results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of future or annual results. The consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, accordingly, they do not include all of the information necessary for a comprehensive presentation of results of operations, financial position and cash flow activity required by GAAP for complete financial statements but, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments including those of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of the interim results presented.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company identified and recorded out-of-period adjustments related to
income tax errors resulting
primarily
from
the reversal of (i) a basis difference related to goodwill and other intangibles and (ii) a U.S. federal income tax receivable
that should have been adjusted in prior fiscal years.
The impact of correcting these errors, which were immaterial to prior period financial statements and corrected in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, resulted in an income tax benefit of $
These statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2021 filed on March 1, 2022, which includes additional information about the Company, its results of operations, its financial position and its cash flows.
In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued updated guidance to improve the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing diversity in practice and inconsistency related to (i) recognition of an acquired contract liability and (ii) payment terms and their effect on subsequent revenue recognized by the acquirer. The amendments in this update require an acquiring entity to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606. The effective date of the new guidance for public companies is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The new guidance should be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after its effective date. On

These acquisitions have been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, earnings of the acquired franchises have been included in the consolidated operating results of the Company since the date of acquisition.
Franchise rights acquired are due to acquisitions of the Company’s franchised territories as well as the acquisition of franchise promotion agreements and other factors associated with the acquired franchise territories. For the nine months ended October 1, 2022, the change in the carrying value of franchise rights acquired was due to the impairments of the United States, Canada and New Zealand units of account as discussed below, the effect of exchange rate changes and the Northern Ireland franchisee acquisition as described in Note 5.

Franchise Rights Acquired
Finite-lived franchise rights acquired are amortized over the remaining contractual period, which is generally less than
In performing the impairment analysis for indefinite-lived franchise rights acquired, the fair value for franchise rights acquired is estimated using a discounted cash flow approach referred to as the hypothetical start-up approach for franchise rights related to the Company’s Workshops + Digital business and a relief from royalty methodology for franchise rights related to the Company’s Digital business. The aggregate estimated fair value for these rights is then compared to the carrying value of the unit of account for those franchise rights. The Company has determined the appropriate unit of account for purposes of assessing impairment to be the combination of the rights in both the Workshops + Digital business and the Digital business in the country in which the applicable acquisition occurred. The net book values of these franchise rights in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand as of the October 1, 2022 balance sheet date were $
In its hypothetical start-up approach analysis for fiscal 2022, the Company assumed that the year of maturity was reached after
Goodwill
In performing the impairment analysis for goodwill, the fair value for the Company’s reporting units is estimated using a discounted cash flow approach. This approach involves projecting future cash flows attributable to the reporting unit and discounting those estimated cash flows using an appropriate discount rate. The estimated fair value is then compared to the carrying value of the reporting unit. The Company has determined the appropriate reporting unit for purposes of assessing annual impairment to be the country for all reporting units. The net book values of goodwill in the United States, Canada and other countries as of the October 1, 2022 balance sheet date were $
For all of the Company’s reporting units tested as of May 8, 2022, the Company estimated future cash flows by utilizing the historical debt-free cash flows (cash flows provided by operations less capital expenditures) attributable to that country and then applied expected future operating income growth rates for such country. The Company utilized operating income as the basis for measuring its potential growth because it believes it is the best indicator of the performance of its business. The Company then discounted the estimated future cash flows utilizing a discount rate which was calculated using the weighted-average cost of capital, which included the cost of equity and the cost of debt.

Indefinite-Lived Franchise Rights Acquired and Goodwill Annual Impairment Test
The Company reviews indefinite-lived intangible assets, including franchise rights acquired with indefinite lives, and goodwill for potential impairment on at least an annual basis or more often if events so require. The Company performed fair value impairment testing as of May 8, 2022 and May 9, 2021, each the first day of fiscal May, on its indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill.
In performing its annual impairment analysis as of May 8, 2022, the Company determined that (i) the carrying amounts of its Canada and New Zealand franchise rights acquired with indefinite-lived units of account exceeded their respective fair values and, as a result, the Company recorded impairment charges for its Canada and New Zealand units of account of $
When determining fair value, the Company utilizes various assumptions, including projections of future cash flows, growth rates and discount rates. A change in these underlying assumptions could cause a change in the results of the impairment assessments and, as such, could cause fair value to be less than the carrying amounts and result in an impairment of those assets. In the event such a result occurred, the Company would be required to record a corresponding charge, which would impact earnings. The Company would also be required to reduce the carrying amounts of the related assets on its balance sheet.

Indefinite-Lived Franchise Rights Acquired Interim Impairment Test
During the quarter ended October 1, 2022, the Company identified various qualitative and quantitative factors which collectively, when combined with the Annual Impairment Headroom discussed above for the United States, Canada and New Zealand units of account, indicated a triggering event had occurred within these units of account. These factors included actual business performance as compared to the assumptions used in its annual impairment test, the continued decline in the Company’s market capitalization and market factors, including the increase in interest rates. As a result of this triggering event, the Company performed an interim impairment test of these units of account. In performing this interim impairment test as of October 1, 2022
, the Company determined that the carrying amounts of its United States, Canada and New Zealand franchise rights acquired with indefinite-lived units of account exceeded their respective fair values. Accordingly, the Company recorded impairment charges for its United States, Canada and New Zealand units of account of $

Gross profit, gross profit margin, operating (loss) income, operating (loss) income margin and components thereof are discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q both as reported (on a GAAP basis) and as adjusted (on a non-GAAP basis), as applicable, with respect to (i) the third quarter of fiscal 2022 to exclude (a) the impact of the impairment charges for our franchise rights acquired related to our United States, Canada and New Zealand units of account and (b) the net impact of (x) charges associated with our previously disclosed 2022 restructuring plan (the “2022 plan”) and (y) charges associated with our previously disclosed 2021 organizational restructuring plan (the “2021 plan”); (ii) the first nine months of fiscal 2022 to exclude (a) the impact of impairment charges for our franchise rights acquired related to our United States, Canada and New Zealand units of account and the impairment charge for our goodwill related to our wholly-owned subsidiary Kurbo, Inc. (“Kurbo”) and (b) the net impact of (x) charges associated with the 2022 plan, (y) charges associated with the 2021 plan or the reversal of certain of the charges associated with the 2021 plan, as applicable, and (z) the reversal of certain of the charges associated with our previously disclosed 2020 organizational restructuring plan (the “2020 plan”); and (iii) the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2021 to exclude the net impact of (x) charges associated with the 2021 plan and (y) the reversal of certain of the charges associated with the 2020 plan. We generally refer to such non-GAAP measures as follows: (i) with respect to the adjustments for the third quarter of fiscal 2022, as excluding or adjusting for the impact of the franchise rights acquired impairments and the net impact of restructuring charges; (ii) with respect to the adjustments for the first nine months of fiscal 2022, as excluding or adjusting for the impact of franchise rights acquired and goodwill impairments and the net impact of restructuring charges; and (iii) with respect to the adjustments for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2021, as excluding or adjusting for the net impact of restructuring charges. We also present within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q the non-GAAP financial measures: earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation (“EBITDAS”); earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, franchise rights acquired and goodwill impairments, net restructuring charges, and early extinguishment of debt with respect to the Company’s previously disclosed April 2021 debt refinancing and voluntary debt prepayments (“Adjusted EBITDAS”); total debt less unamortized deferred financing costs, unamortized debt discount and cash on hand (i.e., net debt); and a net debt/Adjusted EBITDAS ratio. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—EBITDAS, Adjusted EBITDAS and Net Debt” 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 entitled 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
Franchise Rights Acquired
Finite-lived franchise rights acquired are amortized over the remaining contractual period, which is generally less than one year. Indefinite-lived franchise rights acquired are tested for potential impairment on at least an annual basis or more often if events so require.
29
In performing the impairment analysis for our indefinite-lived franchise rights acquired, the fair value for our franchise rights acquired is estimated using a discounted cash flow approach referred to as the hypothetical start-up approach for our franchise rights related to our Workshops + Digital business and a relief from royalty methodology for our franchise rights related to our Digital business. The aggregate estimated fair value for these rights is then compared to the carrying value of the unit of account for those franchise rights. We have determined the appropriate unit of account for purposes of assessing impairment to be the combination of the rights in both the Workshops + Digital business and the Digital business in the country in which the applicable acquisition occurred. The net book values of these franchise rights in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand as of the October 1, 2022 balance sheet date were $400.1 million, $19.3 million, $10.1 million, $5.8 million and $2.1 million, respectively.
In our hypothetical start-up approach analysis for fiscal 2022, we assumed that the year of maturity was reached after 7 years. Subsequent to the year of maturity, we estimated future cash flows for the Workshops + Digital business in each country based on assumptions regarding revenue growth and operating income margins. In our relief from royalty approach analysis for fiscal 2022, the cash flows associated with the Digital business in each country were based on the expected Digital revenue for such country and the application of a royalty rate based on current market terms. The cash flows for the Workshops + Digital and the Digital businesses were discounted utilizing rates which were calculated using the weighted-average cost of capital, which included the cost of equity and the cost of debt.
Goodwill
In performing the impairment analysis for goodwill, the fair value for our reporting units is estimated using a discounted cash flow approach. This approach involves projecting future cash flows attributable to the reporting unit and discounting those estimated cash flows using an appropriate discount rate. The estimated fair value is then compared to the carrying value of the reporting unit. We have determined the appropriate reporting unit for purposes of assessing annual impairment to be the country for all reporting units. The net book values of goodwill in the United States, Canada and other countries as of the October 1, 2022 balance sheet date were $104.0 million, $38.8 million and $13.4 million, respectively.
For all of our reporting units tested as of May 8, 2022, we estimated future cash flows by utilizing the historical debt-free cash flows (cash flows provided by operations less capital expenditures) attributable to that country and then applied expected future operating income growth rates for such country. We utilized operating income as the basis for measuring our potential growth because we believe it is the best indicator of the performance of our business. We then discounted the estimated future cash flows utilizing a discount rate which was calculated using the weighted-average cost of capital, which included the cost of equity and the cost of debt.
Indefinite-Lived Franchise Rights Acquired and Goodwill Annual Impairment Test
We review indefinite-lived intangible assets, including franchise rights acquired with indefinite lives, and goodwill for potential impairment on at least an annual basis or more often if events so require. We performed fair value impairment testing as of May 8, 2022 and May 9, 2021, each the first day of fiscal May, on our indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill.
In performing our annual impairment analysis as of May 8, 2022, we determined that (i) the carrying amounts of our Canada and New Zealand franchise rights acquired with indefinite-lived units of account exceeded their respective fair values and, as a result, we recorded impairment charges for our Canada and New Zealand units of account of $24.5 million and $0.8 million, respectively, in the second quarter of fiscal 2022; and (ii) the carrying amounts of all of our other franchise rights acquired with indefinite-lived units of account did not exceed their respective fair values and, therefore, no impairment existed with respect thereto. In performing our annual impairment analysis as of May 9, 2021, we determined that the carrying amounts of our franchise rights acquired with indefinite-lived units of account did not exceed their respective fair values and, therefore, no impairment existed. In performing our annual impairment analysis as of May 8, 2022 and May 9, 2021, we determined that the carrying amounts of our goodwill reporting units did not exceed their respective fair values and, therefore, no impairment existed.
When determining fair value, we utilize various assumptions, including projections of future cash flows, growth rates and discount rates. A change in these underlying assumptions could cause a change in the results of the impairment assessments and, as such, could cause fair value to be less than the carrying amounts and result in an impairment of those assets. In the event such a result occurred, we would be required to record a corresponding charge, which would impact earnings. We would also be required to reduce the carrying amounts of the related assets on our balance sheet. We continue to evaluate these assumptions and believe that these assumptions are appropriate.
In performing our annual impairment analysis, we also considered the trading value of both our equity and debt. If the trading values of both our equity and debt were to significantly decline from their levels at the time of testing, we may have to take an impairment charge at the appropriate time, which could be material. For additional information on risks associated with our recognizing asset impairment charges, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2021.
30
Based on the results of our May 8, 2022 annual franchise rights acquired impairment test performed for our United States unit of account, which held 92.7% of our franchise rights acquired as of the July 2, 2022 balance sheet date, the estimated fair value of this unit of account exceeded its carrying value by approximately 15%. Based on the results of our May 8, 2022 annual franchise rights acquired impairment analysis performed for our Canada and New Zealand units of account, which held 4.6% and 0.5%, respectively, of our franchise rights acquired as of the July 2, 2022 balance sheet date, the estimated fair values of these units of account were equal to their respective carrying values. The above difference or lack thereof between the estimated fair value of the applicable unit of account and its carrying value is referred to herein as the Annual Impairment Headroom. As previously disclosed, a change in the underlying assumptions for the United States, Canada and New Zealand could change the results of the impairment assessment and, as such, could result in an impairment of the franchise rights acquired related to the United States, Canada and New Zealand, for which the net book values were $698.4 million, $34.6 million and $3.6 million, respectively, as of July 2, 2022. Based on the results of our May 8, 2022 annual franchise rights acquired impairment analysis performed for our remaining units of account, which collectively held 2.2% of our franchise rights acquired as of the July 2, 2022 balance sheet date, the estimated fair values of these units of account exceeded their respective carrying values by over 100%.
In performing this annual impairment analysis for fiscal 2022, in our hypothetical start-up approach analysis, for the year of maturity, we assumed Workshops + Digital revenue (comprised of Workshops + Digital Fees and revenues from products sold to members in studios) growth of 23.0% to 106.2% in the year of maturity from fiscal 2021, in each case, earned in the applicable country and assumed cumulative annual revenue growth rates for the years beyond the year of maturity of 2.4%. For the year of maturity and beyond, we assumed operating income margin rates of (3.0%) to 8.8%. In our relief from royalty approach, we assumed Digital revenue growth in each country of (25.6%) to 16.1% for fiscal 2022.
Based on the results of our May 8, 2022 annual goodwill impairment analysis performed for all of our reporting units, all units, except for the Republic of Ireland, had an estimated fair value at least 35% higher than the respective unit’s carrying amount. Collectively, these reporting units represented 97.4% of our total goodwill as of the October 1, 2022 balance sheet date. Based on the results of our May 8, 2022 annual goodwill impairment analysis performed for our Republic of Ireland reporting unit, which holds 2.6% of our goodwill as of the October 1, 2022 balance sheet date, the estimated fair value of this reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximately 14%. Accordingly, a change in the underlying assumptions for the Republic of Ireland may change the results of the impairment assessment and, as such, could result in an impairment of the goodwill related to the Republic of Ireland, for which the net book value was $4.0 million as of October 1, 2022.

Indefinite-Lived Franchise Rights Acquired Interim Impairment Test
During the quarter ended October 1, 2022, we identified various qualitative and quantitative factors which collectively, when combined with the Annual Impairment Headroom discussed above for the United States, Canada and New Zealand units of account, indicated a triggering event had occurred within these units of account. These factors included actual business performance as compared to the assumptions used in our annual impairment test, the continued decline in our market capitalization and market factors, including the increase in interest rates. As a result of this triggering event, we performed an interim impairment test of these units of account. In performing this interim impairment test as of October 1, 2022, we determined that the carrying amounts of our United States, Canada and New Zealand franchise rights acquired with indefinite-lived units of account exceeded their respective fair values. Accordingly, we recorded impairment charges for our United States, Canada and New Zealand units of account of $298.3 million, $13.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively, in the third quarter of fiscal 2022. The preponderance of these impairments was driven by the increased weighted-average cost of capital used in this interim impairment test of 13.4% as compared to the weighted-average cost of capital used in the May 8, 2022 annual impairment test of its indefinite-lived franchise rights acquired of 9.6%, reflecting market factors including higher interest rates and the trading values of our equity and debt.
When determining fair value, we utilize various assumptions, including projections of future cash flows, growth rates and discount rates. A change in these underlying assumptions could cause a change in the results of the impairment assessments and, as such, could cause fair value to be less than the carrying amounts and result in an impairment of those assets. In the event such a result occurred, we would be required to record a corresponding charge, which would impact earnings. We would also be required to reduce the carrying amounts of the related assets on our balance sheet. We continue to evaluate these assumptions and believe that these assumptions are appropriate.
31
In performing this interim impairment analysis, in our hypothetical start-up approach analysis, for the year of maturity, we assumed Workshops + Digital revenue (comprised of Workshops + Digital Fees and revenues from products sold to members in studios) growth of 20.2% to 57.6% in the year of maturity from fiscal 2021, in each case, earned in the applicable country and assumed cumulative annual revenue growth rates for the years beyond the year of maturity of 2.5%. For the year of maturity and beyond, we assumed operating income margin rates of 2.3% to 8.8%. In our relief from royalty approach, we assumed Digital revenue growth in each country of (21.5%) to 1.6% for fiscal 2022.
Based on the results of our October 1, 2022 interim franchise rights acquired impairment test performed for our United States, Canada and New Zealand units of account, which hold 91.5%, 4.4% and 0.5%, respectively, of our franchise rights acquired as of the October 1, 2022 balance sheet date, the estimated fair values of these units of account were equal to their respective carrying values. Accordingly, a change in the underlying assumptions for the United States, Canada and New Zealand may change the results of the impairment assessment and, as such, could result in an impairment of the franchise rights acquired related to the United States, Canada and New Zealand, for which the net book values were $400.1 million, $19.3 million and $2.1 million, respectively, as of October 1, 2022.
Any impairment test is highly dependent on the assumptions used. The most significant assumptions used in the interim impairment test discussed above were the discount rate applied and the Digital revenue growth rates. We applied a discount rate of 13.4% based on our actual weighted-average cost of capital, which included the cost of equity and the cost of debt. We projected Digital revenues based upon our current and past performance. Changes in these assumptions would have a significant impact on the valuation model. Holding all other assumptions constant, a hypothetical 50 basis point increase in our discount rate assumption would decrease the fair values of the United States, Canada and New Zealand units of account by approximately 5.5%, 5.4% and 4.2%, respectively, which would result in additional impairment charges. Holding all other assumptions constant, a hypothetical 1% reduction in projected Digital revenues for each year in the analysis would decrease the fair values of the United States, Canada and New Zealand units of account by approximately 0.9%, 1.2% and 1.0%, respectively, which would also result in additional impairment charges.
Kurbo Goodwill Impairment
On August 10, 2018, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Kurbo Health, Inc., a family-based healthy lifestyle coaching program, for a net purchase price of $3.1 million, of which $1.1 million was allocated to goodwill. The goodwill was deductible annually for tax purposes. We determined in the second quarter of fiscal 2022 to exit the Kurbo business in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 as part of our strategic plan. As a result of this determination, we recorded an impairment charge of $1.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, which comprised the entire goodwill balance for Kurbo.
Critical Accounting Policies
Information concerning our critical accounting policies is set forth in “Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our audited consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2021. Our critical accounting policies have not changed since the end of fiscal 2021.
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.

COVID-19 PANDEMIC
The novel coronavirus (including its variants, COVID-19) pandemic continues to evolve and have unpredictable impacts on consumer sentiment and behavior, which in turn have impacted and may impact our business performance and operations. We have seen significant shifts in consumer sentiment with respect to the weight loss and wellness marketplace, which we believe in part is attributable to the evolution of the pandemic. COVID-19 had a significant effect on our recruitments starting in March 2020. Our Workshops + Digital recruitments were substantially negatively impacted during the first year of the pandemic. While Digital recruitments were strong in the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, a subsequent turn in consumer sentiment drove a decline in Digital recruitments. Given the long-term subscription model of our business, these declines in recruitment continued to impact the number of our End of Period Subscribers in the third quarter of fiscal 2022, which declined compared to the prior year period. Additionally, our mix shift toward our Digital business, which was significant during the onset of the pandemic, especially when amplified by the nature of our subscription business, negatively impacted revenue. Over the longer term, it remains uncertain how the COVID-19 pandemic will impact consumer demand for our products and services and consumer preferences and behavior generally.
We continue to serve our members virtually, both via our Digital business and through virtual workshops, and to evolve our workshop strategy as we evaluate our cost structure and respond to shifting consumer sentiment. The current number of our studio locations is significantly lower than that prior to the pandemic, and we expect it to remain below pre-COVID-19 levels. As a result, we have incurred, and may continue to incur, significant costs associated with our real estate realignment.
While we expect the effects of the pandemic and the related responses, including shifts in consumer sentiment and behavior, to negatively impact our results of operations, cash flows and financial position, the uncertainty of the full extent of the duration and severity of the consumer, economic and operational impacts of COVID-19 means we cannot reasonably estimate the related financial impact at this time. This dynamic situation continues to drive uncertainty at the macroeconomic, local and consumer levels. We continue to actively monitor the ongoing global outbreak of COVID-19 and its impact and related developments. For more information, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2021.

Consolidated Results
Revenues
Revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 were $249.7 million, a decrease of $43.8 million, or 14.9%, versus the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which negatively impacted our revenues in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 by $12.4 million, revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 would have decreased 10.7% versus the prior year period. This decrease was driven primarily by lower Subscription Revenues reflecting lower sign-ups throughout fiscal 2022 primarily due to worsened consumer sentiment and our PersonalPoints program not resonating with consumers to the extent anticipated. This worsened consumer sentiment in fiscal 2022 was due in part to the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic as well as the likely impact of certain macro factors including increasing inflation, social and political unrest and challenged economic growth. See “—Segment Results” for additional details on revenues.
35
Cost of Revenues
Total cost of revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 decreased $18.1 million, or 15.7%, versus the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which decreased cost of revenues in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 by $3.5 million, cost of revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 would have decreased 12.7% versus the prior year period. Excluding the net impact of the $0.0 million of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 and the net impact of the $4.9 million of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, total cost of revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 would have decreased by 11.9%, or 8.8% on a constant currency basis, versus the prior year period.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 decreased $25.7 million, or 14.4%, versus the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which negatively impacted gross profit in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 by $9.0 million, gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 would have decreased 9.4% versus the prior year period. Excluding the net impact of the $0.0 million of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 and the net impact of the $4.9 million of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 would have decreased by 16.7%, or 11.8% on a constant currency basis, versus the prior year period primarily due to the decrease in revenues. Gross margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 increased to 61.0% versus 60.7% for the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, gross margin in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 would have increased 0.9% to 61.5% versus the prior year period. Excluding the net impact of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 and the net impact of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, gross margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 would have decreased 1.3% to 61.0% versus the prior year period. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, the net impact of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 and the net impact of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, gross margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 would have decreased 0.8% to 61.5% versus the prior year period. The gross margin decrease was driven primarily by a revenue mix shift away from our higher margin Digital business to our lower margin Workshops + Digital business.
Marketing
Marketing expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 increased $1.1 million, or 3.3%, versus the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which decreased marketing expenses in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 by $2.1 million, marketing expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 would have increased 9.2% versus the prior year period. This increase in marketing expenses was primarily due to an increase in online, social and TV media spend. Marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 increased to 14.3% from 11.8% for the third quarter of fiscal 2021.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 decreased $5.3 million, or 8.3%, versus the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which decreased selling, general and administrative expenses in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 by $1.7 million, selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 would have decreased 5.6% versus the prior year period. Excluding the net impact of the $3.7 million of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 and the net impact of the $3.7 million of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 would have decreased by 8.7%, or 5.8% on a constant currency basis, versus the prior year period. This decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase in capitalizable projects, lower salary costs and lower legal and professional fees. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 increased to 23.4% from 21.7% for the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Excluding the net impact of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 and the net impact of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 would have increased by 1.5%, or 1.1% on a constant currency basis, versus the prior year period.
Impairment
In performing our interim impairment analysis as of October 1, 2022, we determined that the carrying amounts of our United States, Canada and New Zealand franchise rights acquired with indefinite-lived units of account exceeded their respective fair values and, as a result, we recorded impairment charges for our United States, Canada and New Zealand units of account of $298.3 million, $13.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively, in the third quarter of fiscal 2022.
36
Operating (Loss) Income
Operating loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was $254.5 million compared to operating income for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 of $79.7 million. Operating loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was negatively impacted by $4.3 million of foreign currency. Excluding the impact of the $312.7 million of franchise rights acquired impairments in third quarter of fiscal 2022, the net impact of the $3.7 million of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 and the net impact of the $8.6 million of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, operating income would have been $61.9 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2022, a decrease of 30.0%, or 24.1% on a constant currency basis, versus operating income in the prior year period. Operating loss margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was 101.9% compared to operating income margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 of 27.2%. Excluding the impact of the franchise rights acquired impairments in the third quarter of fiscal 2022, the net impact of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 and the net impact of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, operating income margin would have been 24.8% for the third quarter of fiscal 2022, a decrease of 5.3%, or 4.5% on a constant currency basis, versus operating income margin in the prior year period. This decrease in operating income margin was driven by an increase in marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue, an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue and a decrease in gross margin versus the prior year period.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 increased $1.6 million, or 8.4%, versus the third quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase in interest expense was driven primarily by an increase in the base rate of our Term Loan Facility (as defined below). The effective interest rate on our debt, based on interest incurred (which includes amortization of our deferred financing costs and debt discount) and our average borrowings during the third quarter of fiscal 2022 and the third quarter of fiscal 2021 and excluding the impact of our interest rate swaps then in effect, increased to 5.68% per annum at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2022 from 4.69% per annum at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Including the impact of our interest rate swaps then in effect, the effective interest rate on our debt, based on interest incurred (which includes amortization of our deferred financing costs and debt discount) and our average borrowings during the third quarter of fiscal 2022 and the third quarter of fiscal 2021, increased to 5.77% per annum at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2022 from 5.29% per annum at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2021. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Long-Term Debt” for additional details regarding our debt, including interest rates and payments thereon. For additional details on our interest rate swaps, see “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Other Expense, Net
Other expense, net, which consists primarily of the impact of foreign currency on intercompany transactions, increased by $0.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 to $1.3 million of expense as compared to $0.8 million of expense for the third quarter of fiscal 2021.
Tax
Our effective tax rate for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was 25.6% as compared to 22.4% for the third quarter of fiscal 2021. The tax benefit for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was impacted by a U.S. state tax rate change. For the third quarter of fiscal 2022, the difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate and our consolidated effective tax rate was primarily due to state income tax expense and tax expense from income earned in foreign jurisdictions, partially offset by a tax benefit related to foreign-derived intangible income, or FDII. The tax expense for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 was impacted by the reversal of a valuation allowance related to tax benefits for foreign losses that are now expected to be realized. For the third quarter of fiscal 2021, the difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate and our consolidated effective tax rate was primarily due to state income tax expense and tax expense from income earned in foreign jurisdictions, partially offset by a tax benefit related to FDII.
We continue to evaluate the realizability of our deferred tax assets and if our U.S. business continues to decline, it is possible that some or all of the business interest expense carryforward may not be used. While this carryforward has an indefinite life, a change in the valuation allowance is possible in the foreseeable future which could materially increase our tax expense in the period the valuation allowance is recognized.
Net (Loss) Income and Diluted (Net Loss) Earnings Per Share
Net loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was $206.0 million compared to net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 of $46.3 million. Net loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was negatively impacted by $2.7 million of foreign currency. Net loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 included a $235.1 million impact from the franchise rights acquired impairments and a $2.7 million net impact from restructuring charges. Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 included a $6.5 million net impact from restructuring charges.
37
Diluted net loss per share for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was $2.93 compared to earnings per fully diluted share, or EPS, of $0.65 for the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Diluted net loss per share for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 included a $3.34 impact from the franchise rights acquired impairments and a $0.04 net impact from restructuring charges. EPS for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 included a $0.09 net impact from restructuring charges. Additionally, EPS for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 included a $0.02 tax benefit due to the reversal of a valuation allowance related to foreign losses that are now expected to be realized.

North America Performance
The decrease in North America revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 versus the prior year period was driven by a decrease in Subscription Revenues. The decrease in Subscription Revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 versus the prior year period was driven by a decrease in Digital Subscription Revenues. Digital Subscription Revenues were negatively impacted by both the lower number of Incoming Digital Subscribers at the beginning of the third quarter of fiscal 2022 versus the beginning of the third quarter of fiscal 2021 and the recruitment decline during the third quarter of fiscal 2022 as compared to the prior year period. This decline in recruitments was driven primarily by worsened consumer sentiment in the current environment and our PersonalPoints program not resonating with consumers to the extent anticipated. The decrease in North America Total Paid Weeks for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 versus the prior year period was driven primarily by both the lower number of Total Incoming Subscribers at the beginning of the third quarter of fiscal 2022 versus the beginning of the third quarter of fiscal 2021 and lower recruitments for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 versus the prior year period. For the third quarter of fiscal 2022, Workshops + Digital Fees, Workshops + Digital Paid Weeks and End of Period Workshops + Digital Subscribers all substantially benefited from the transition of our former Digital 360 members from the Digital business to the Workshops + Digital business during the second and third quarters of fiscal 2022 as previously disclosed.

Consolidated Results
Revenues
Revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 were $816.9 million, a decrease of $119.7 million, or 12.8%, versus the first nine months of fiscal 2021. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which negatively impacted our revenues in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 by $29.5 million, revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 would have decreased 9.6% versus the prior year period. This decrease was driven primarily by lower Subscription Revenues reflecting lower sign-ups primarily due to worsened consumer sentiment and our PersonalPoints program not resonating with consumers to the extent anticipated. This worsened consumer sentiment was due in part to the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic as well as the likely impact of certain macro factors including increasing inflation, social and political unrest and challenged economic growth. See “—Segment Results” for additional details on revenues.
42
Cost of Revenues
Total cost of revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 decreased $57.7 million, or 15.2%, versus the first nine months of fiscal 2021. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which decreased cost of revenues in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 by $8.3 million, cost of revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 would have decreased 13.0% versus the prior year period. Excluding the net impact of the $3.9 million of restructuring charges in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 and the net impact of the $15.1 million of restructuring charges in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, total cost of revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 would have decreased by 12.7%, or 10.5% on a constant currency basis, versus the prior year period.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 decreased $62.1 million, or 11.1%, versus the first nine months of fiscal 2021. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which negatively impacted gross profit in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 by $21.1 million, gross profit for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 would have decreased 7.3% versus the prior year period. Excluding the net impact of the $3.9 million of restructuring charges in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 and the net impact of the $15.1 million of restructuring charges in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, gross profit for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 would have decreased by 12.8%, or 9.1% on a constant currency basis, versus the prior year period primarily due to the decrease in revenues. Gross margin for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 increased to 60.6% versus 59.5% for the first nine months of fiscal 2021. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, gross margin in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 would have increased 1.5% to 61.0% versus the prior year period. Excluding the net impact of restructuring charges in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 and the net impact of restructuring charges in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, gross margin for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 would have been flat at 61.1% versus the prior year period. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, the net impact of restructuring charges in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 and the net impact of restructuring charges in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, gross margin for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 would have increased 0.4% to 61.5% versus the prior year period. The gross margin increase was driven primarily by margin expansion in the Workshops + Digital business resulting from a more efficient studio footprint and a reduction in labor costs.
Marketing
Marketing expenses for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 decreased $13.5 million, or 6.5%, versus the first nine months of fiscal 2021. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which decreased marketing expenses in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 by $6.1 million, marketing expenses for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 would have decreased 3.6% versus the prior year period. This decrease in marketing expenses was primarily due to a decline in TV media. Marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 increased to 23.9% from 22.3% for the first nine months of fiscal 2021.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 decreased $13.3 million, or 6.4%, versus the first nine months of fiscal 2021. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which decreased selling, general and administrative expenses in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 by $4.0 million, selling, general and administrative expenses for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 would have decreased 4.5% versus the prior year period. Excluding the impact of the $18.5 million of restructuring charges in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 and the net impact of the $4.3 million of restructuring charges in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, selling, general and administrative expenses for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 would have decreased by 13.6%, or 11.6% on a constant currency basis, versus the prior year period. This decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to lower stock compensation expense, lower salary costs, lower professional fees and an increase in capitalizable projects. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 increased to 23.7% from 22.1% for the first nine months of fiscal 2021. Excluding the impact of restructuring charges in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 and the net impact of restructuring charges in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 would have decreased by 0.2%, or 0.5% on a constant currency basis, versus the prior year period.
Impairments
In performing our interim impairment analysis as of October 1, 2022, we determined that the carrying amounts of our United States, Canada and New Zealand franchise rights acquired with indefinite-lived units of account exceeded their respective fair values and, as a result, we recorded impairment charges for our United States, Canada and New Zealand units of account of $298.3 million, $13.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively, in the third quarter of fiscal 2022.
43
In performing our annual impairment analysis as of May 8, 2022, we determined that the carrying amounts of our Canada and New Zealand franchise rights acquired with indefinite-lived units of account exceeded their respective fair values and, as a result, we recorded impairment charges for our Canada and New Zealand units of account of $24.5 million and $0.8 million, respectively, in the second quarter of fiscal 2022. In addition, we determined in the second quarter of fiscal 2022 to exit the Kurbo business in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 as part of our strategic plan. As a result of this determination, we recorded an impairment charge of $1.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, which comprised the entire goodwill balance for Kurbo.
Operating (Loss) Income
Operating loss for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 was $232.2 million compared to operating income for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 of $142.2 million. Operating loss for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 was negatively impacted by $8.9 million of foreign currency. Excluding the impact of the $339.2 million of franchise rights acquired and goodwill impairments in the first nine months of fiscal 2022, the net impact of the $22.4 million of restructuring charges in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 and the net impact of the $19.4 million of restructuring charges in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, operating income would have been $129.3 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2022, a decrease of 20.0%, or 13.1% on a constant currency basis, versus operating income in the prior year period. Operating loss margin for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 was 28.4% compared to operating income margin for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 of 15.2%. Excluding the impact of the franchise rights acquired and goodwill impairments in the first nine months of fiscal 2022, the net impact of restructuring charges in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 and the net impact of restructuring charges in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, operating income margin would have been 15.8% for the first nine months of fiscal 2022, a decrease of 1.4%, or 0.7% on a constant currency basis, versus operating income margin in the prior year period. This decrease in operating income margin was driven by an increase in marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue, partially offset by a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue and an increase in gross margin, versus the prior year period.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 decreased $9.9 million, or 14.4%, versus the first nine months of fiscal 2021. The decrease in interest expense was driven primarily by lower interest rates under our Term Loan Facility and on our Senior Secured Notes (as defined below) as a result of our April 2021 debt refinancing (as defined below). The effective interest rate on our debt, based on interest incurred (which includes amortization of our deferred financing costs and debt discount) and our average borrowings during the first nine months of fiscal 2022 and the first nine months of fiscal 2021 and excluding the impact of our interest rate swaps then in effect, decreased to 4.98% per annum at the end of the first nine months of fiscal 2022 from 5.28% per annum at the end of the first nine months of fiscal 2021. Including the impact of our interest rate swaps then in effect, the effective interest rate on our debt, based on interest incurred (which includes amortization of our deferred financing costs and debt discount) and our average borrowings during the first nine months of fiscal 2022 and the first nine months of fiscal 2021, decreased to 5.40% per annum at the end of the first nine months of fiscal 2022 from 6.00% per annum at the end of the first nine months of fiscal 2021. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Long-Term Debt” for additional details regarding our debt, including interest rates and payments thereon. For additional details on our interest rate swaps, see “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Other Expense, Net
Other expense, net, which consists primarily of the impact of foreign currency on intercompany transactions, increased by $2.4 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 to $3.3 million of expense as compared to $0.9 million of expense for the first nine months of fiscal 2021.
Early Extinguishment of Debt
In the second quarter of fiscal 2021, we wrote-off $29.2 million of fees in connection with our April 2021 debt refinancing that we recorded as an early extinguishment of debt charge, comprised of $12.9 million of a prepayment penalty on the Discharged Senior Notes (as defined below), $9.0 million of financing fees and $7.2 million of pre-existing deferred financing fees and debt discount. For additional details on this refinancing, see “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Long-Term Debt”.

Tax
Our effective tax rate for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 was 25.6% as compared to 14.9% for the first nine months of fiscal 2021. The tax benefit for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 was impacted by out-of-period income tax adjustments and a U.S. state tax rate change, partially offset by tax shortfalls from stock compensation. For the first nine months of fiscal 2022, the difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate and our consolidated effective tax rate was primarily due to state income tax expense and tax expense from income earned in foreign jurisdictions, partially offset by a tax benefit related to FDII . The tax expense for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 was impacted by tax windfalls from stock compensation and the reversal of a valuation allowance related to tax benefits for foreign losses that are now expected to be realized. For the first nine months of fiscal 2021, the difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate and our consolidated effective tax rate was primarily due to state income tax expense and tax expense from income earned in foreign jurisdictions, partially offset by a tax benefit related to FDII.
We continue to evaluate the realizability of our deferred tax assets and if our U.S. business continues to decline, it is possible that some or all of the business interest expense carryforward may not be used. While this carryforward has an indefinite life, a change in the valuation allowance is possible in the foreseeable future which could materially increase our tax expense in the period the valuation allowance is recognized.
Net (Loss) Income and Diluted (Net Loss) Earnings Per Share
Net loss for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 was $218.9 million compared to net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 of $37.0 million. Net loss for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 was negatively impacted by $5.7 million of foreign currency. Net loss for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 included a $256.4 million impact from franchise rights acquired and goodwill impairments and a $16.7 million net impact from restructuring charges. Net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 included a $21.8 million impact from the write-off of fees related to our April 2021 debt refinancing and an $14.5 million net impact from restructuring charges.
Diluted net loss per share for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 was $3.12 compared to EPS of $0.52 for the first nine months of fiscal 2021. Diluted net loss per share for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 included a $3.65 impact from franchise rights acquired and goodwill impairments and a $0.24 net impact from restructuring charges. EPS for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 included a $0.31 impact from the write-off of fees related to our April 2021 debt refinancing and a $0.20 net impact from restructuring charges. Additionally, EPS in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 included a $0.02 tax benefit due to the reversal of a valuation allowance related to foreign losses that are now expected to be realized.

North America Performance
The decrease in North America revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 versus the prior year period was driven by a decrease in Subscription Revenues and, to a lesser extent, a decrease in product sales and other. The decrease in Subscription Revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 versus the prior year period was driven primarily by a decrease in Digital Subscription Revenues. Digital Subscription Revenues were negatively impacted by both the recruitment decline during the first nine months of fiscal 2022 as compared to the prior year period and the lower number of Incoming Digital Subscribers at the beginning of fiscal 2022 versus the beginning of fiscal 2021. This decline in recruitments was driven primarily by worsened consumer sentiment in the current environment and our PersonalPoints program not resonating with consumers to the extent anticipated. The decrease in North America Total Paid Weeks for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 versus the prior year period was driven primarily by both lower recruitments for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 versus the prior year period and the lower number of Total Incoming Subscribers at the beginning of fiscal 2022 versus the beginning of fiscal 2021. For the first nine months of fiscal 2022, Workshops + Digital Fees, Workshops + Digital Paid Weeks and End of Period Workshops + Digital Subscribers all substantially benefited from the transition of our former Digital 360 members from the Digital business to the Workshops + Digital business during the second and third quarters of fiscal 2022 as previously disclosed.

The decrease in Other product sales and other for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 versus the prior year period was driven primarily by a decrease in product sales, licensing and franchise commissions.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash flows provided by operating activities have historically supplied, and are expected to continue to supply, us with our primary source of liquidity. We use these cash flows, supplemented with long-term debt and short-term borrowings, to fund our operations and global strategic initiatives, pay down debt and engage in selective acquisitions. We currently believe that cash generated by operations, our cash on hand of approximately $188.3 million at October 1, 2022, our availability under our Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below) at October 1, 2022 and our continued cost focus will provide us with sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations for the short- and long-term. In addition, if necessary, we have the flexibility to delay investments or reduce marketing spend.
We continue to proactively manage our liquidity so we can maintain flexibility to fund investments in our business, honor our long-term debt obligations, and respond to evolving business and consumer conditions. To increase our flexibility and reduce our cash interest payments, we refinanced our then-existing credit facilities and then-existing senior notes in April 2021. See “—Long-Term Debt” for additional details on this refinancing. Additionally, we instituted a number of measures throughout our operations to mitigate expenses and reduce costs as well as ensure liquidity. The evolving nature, and uncertain economic impact, of the current demand environment may impact our liquidity going forward. To the extent that we do not successfully manage our costs, our liquidity and financial results, as well as our ability to fully access our Revolving Credit Facility, may be adversely affected.
As market conditions warrant, we may, from time to time, seek to purchase our outstanding debt securities or loans, including the Senior Secured Notes and borrowings under the Credit Facilities (each as defined below). Such transactions could be privately negotiated or open market transactions, pursuant to tender offers or otherwise. Subject to any applicable limitations contained in the agreements governing, or terms of, our indebtedness, any such purchases made by us may be funded by the use of cash on our balance sheet, the incurrence of new secured or unsecured debt, the issuance of our equity or the sale of assets. The amounts involved in any such purchase transactions, individually or in the aggregate, may be material. Any such purchases may equate to a substantial amount of a particular class or series of debt, which may reduce the trading liquidity of such class or series.

The change in derivative (receivable) payable, net was due to a change in fair value driven by the change in interest rates. The decrease in deferred revenue was driven primarily by lower signups compared to the prior year. The increase in accrued interest was due to the timing of debt principal payments. The decrease in prepaid income taxes was driven primarily by the timing of tax payments.

Operating Activities
First Nine Months of Fiscal 2022
Cash flows provided by operating activities of $80.5 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 reflected a decrease of $44.8 million from $125.4 million of cash flows provided by operating activities for the first nine months of fiscal 2021. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily the result of a decrease in net income, partially offset by an increase in non-cash add-back adjustments in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 as compared to the prior year period.
First Nine Months of Fiscal 2021
Cash flows provided by operating activities of $125.4 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 reflected a decrease of $2.1 million from $127.4 million of cash flows provided by operating activities for the first nine months of fiscal 2020.
Investing Activities
First Nine Months of Fiscal 2022
Net cash used for investing activities totaled $33.7 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2022, a decrease of $9.9 million as compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2021. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in cash paid for acquisitions in the first nine months of fiscal 2022 as compared to the prior year period.
First Nine Months of Fiscal 2021
Net cash used for investing activities totaled $43.6 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2021, a decrease of $4.2 million as compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2020. This decrease was primarily attributable to lower capital expenditures, partially offset by an increase in cash paid for acquisitions, in the first nine months of fiscal 2021 as compared to the prior year period.
49
Financing Activities
First Nine Months of Fiscal 2022
Net cash used for financing activities totaled $2.1 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2022, a decrease of $53.8 million as compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2021. This decrease was primarily attributable to the April 13, 2021 payment in full of approximately $1.2 billion of borrowings under our then-existing credit facilities and redemption of all of the $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of our then-existing senior notes, as well as the payment in aggregate of $37.0 million of prepayment penalties, financing costs and debt discount in connection with the April 2021 debt refinancing in the first nine months of fiscal 2021. In addition, there was $19.3 million used for scheduled debt repayments under our then-existing term loan facility in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 and $2.5 million used for scheduled debt repayments under our Term Loan Facility (as defined below) in the third quarter of fiscal 2021. These payments were partially offset by the proceeds received of $1,000.0 million in an aggregate principal amount of borrowings under our Term Loan Facility and proceeds received from the issuance of $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our Senior Secured Notes (as defined below) in connection with our April 2021 debt refinancing in the first nine months of fiscal 2021. See “—Long-Term Debt” for additional details on debt.
First Nine Months of Fiscal 2021
Net cash used for financing activities totaled $55.9 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 primarily due to the April 13, 2021 payment in full of approximately $1.2 billion of borrowings under our then-existing credit facilities and redemption of all of the $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of our then-existing senior notes, as well as the payment in aggregate of $37.0 million of prepayment penalties, financing costs and debt discount in connection with the April 2021 debt refinancing. In addition, there was $19.3 million used for scheduled debt repayments under our then-existing term loan facility in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 and $2.5 million used for scheduled debt repayments under our Term Loan Facility in the third quarter of fiscal 2021.

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 at October 1, 2022:

On April 13, 2021, we (1) repaid in full approximately $1.2 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior secured tranche B term loans due in 2024 under our then-existing credit facilities and (2) redeemed all of the $300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our then-outstanding 8.625% Senior Notes due in 2025, or the Discharged Senior Notes. On April 13, 2021, our then-existing credit facilities included a senior secured revolving credit facility (which included borrowing capacity available for letters of credit) due in 2022 with $175.0 million in an aggregate principal amount of commitments. There were no outstanding borrowings under such revolving credit facility on that date. We funded such repayment of loans and redemption of notes with cash on hand as well as with proceeds received from approximately $1,000.0 million in an aggregate principal amount of borrowings under our new credit facilities (as amended from time to time, referred to herein as the Credit Facilities) and proceeds received from the issuance of $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.500% Senior Secured Notes due 2029, or the Senior Secured Notes, each as described below. These transactions are collectively referred to herein as the April 2021 debt refinancing. During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, we incurred fees of $37.9 million (which included $12.9 million of a prepayment penalty on the Discharged Senior Notes and $5.0 million of a debt discount on our Term Loan Facility (as defined below)) in connection with our April 2021 debt refinancing. In addition, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $29.2 million in connection thereto. This early extinguishment of debt charge was comprised of $12.9 million of a prepayment penalty on the Discharged Senior Notes, $9.0 million of financing fees paid in connection with our April 2021 debt refinancing and the write-off of $7.2 million of pre-existing deferred financing fees and debt discount.
Credit Facilities
The Credit Facilities were issued under a credit agreement, dated April 13, 2021 or, as amended from time to time, the Credit Agreement, among the Company, as borrower, the lenders party thereto, and Bank of America, N.A., or Bank of America, as administrative agent and an issuing bank. The Credit Facilities consist of (1) $1,000.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured tranche B term loans due in 2028, or the Term Loan Facility, and (2) $175.0 million in an aggregate principal amount of commitments under a senior secured revolving credit facility (which includes borrowing capacity available for letters of credit) due in 2026, or the Revolving Credit Facility.
In December 2021, we made voluntary prepayments at par in an aggregate amount of $52.5 million in respect of our outstanding term loans under the Term Loan Facility. As a result of these prepayments, we wrote off a debt discount and deferred financing fees of $1.2 million in the aggregate in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.
As of October 1, 2022, we had $945.0 million in an aggregate principal amount of loans outstanding under our Credit Facilities, with $173.9 million of availability and $1.1 million in issued but undrawn letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. There were no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility as of October 1, 2022.
All obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by, subject to certain exceptions, each of our current and future wholly-owned material domestic restricted subsidiaries. All obligations under the Credit Agreement, and the guarantees of those obligations, are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and each guarantor, subject to customary exceptions, including:
The Credit Facilities require the Company to prepay outstanding term loans, subject to certain exceptions, with:
The foregoing mandatory prepayments will be used to reduce the installments of principal on the Term Loan Facility. We may voluntarily repay outstanding loans under the Credit Facilities at any time without penalty, except for customary “breakage” costs with respect to LIBOR loans under the Credit Facilities.
51
Borrowings under the Term Loan Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our option, either (1) an applicable margin plus a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) 0.50% per annum plus the Federal Funds Effective Rate as determined by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, (b) the prime rate of Bank of America and (c) the LIBOR rate determined by reference to the cost of funds for U.S. dollar deposits for an interest period of one month adjusted for certain additional costs, plus 1.00%; provided that such rate is not lower than a floor of 1.50% or (2) an applicable margin plus a LIBOR rate determined by reference to the cost of funds for U.S. dollar deposits for the interest period relevant to such borrowing adjusted for certain additional costs, provided that LIBOR is not lower than a floor of 0.50%. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin based upon a leverage-based pricing grid, plus, at our option, either (1) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) 0.50% per annum plus the Federal Funds Effective Rate as determined by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, (b) the prime rate of Bank of America and (c) the LIBOR rate determined by reference to the cost of funds for U.S. dollar deposits for an interest period of one month adjusted for certain additional costs, plus 1.00%; provided that such rate is not lower than a floor of 1.00% or (2) a LIBOR rate determined by reference to the cost of funds for U.S. dollar deposits for the interest period relevant to such borrowing adjusted for certain additional costs, provided such rate is not lower than a floor of zero. As of October 1, 2022, the applicable margins for the LIBOR rate borrowings under the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility were 3.50% and 2.75%, respectively. In the event that LIBOR is phased out as is currently expected, the Credit Agreement provides that we and the administrative agent may amend the Credit Agreement to replace the LIBOR definition therein with a successor rate subject to notifying the lending syndicate of such change and not receiving within five business days of such notification objections to such replacement rate from lenders holding at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of loans and commitments then outstanding under the Credit Agreement; provided that such lending syndicate may not object to a SOFR-based successor rate contained in any such amendment. If we fail to do so, our borrowings will be based off of the alternative base rate plus a margin.
On a quarterly basis, we pay a commitment fee to the lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility in respect of unutilized commitments thereunder, which commitment fee fluctuates depending upon our Consolidated First Lien Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement).
The Credit Agreement contains other customary terms, including (1) representations, warranties and affirmative covenants, (2) negative covenants, including limitations on indebtedness, liens, mergers, acquisitions, asset sales, investments, distributions, prepayments of subordinated debt, amendments of material agreements governing subordinated indebtedness, changes to lines of business and transactions with affiliates, in each case subject to baskets, thresholds and other exceptions, and (3) customary events of default.
The availability of certain baskets and the ability to enter into certain transactions are also subject to compliance with certain financial ratios. In addition, if the aggregate principal amount of extensions of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility as of any fiscal quarter end exceeds 35% of the amount of the aggregate commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility in effect on such date, we must be in compliance with a Consolidated First Lien Leverage Ratio of 5.75:1.00 for the period ending after the first fiscal quarter of 2022 through and including with the first fiscal quarter of 2023, with a step down to 5.50:1.00 for the period ending after the first fiscal quarter of 2023 through and including with the first fiscal quarter of 2024, with an additional step down to 5.25:1.00 for the period ending after the first fiscal quarter of 2024 through and including with the first fiscal quarter of 2025 and again to 5.00:1.00, for the period following the first fiscal quarter of 2025. As of October 1, 2022, our actual Consolidated First Lien Leverage Ratio was 4.99:1.00 and there were no borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and total letters of credit issued were $1.1 million. We expect we may not be able to satisfy the Consolidated First Lien Leverage Ratio in the near future, and as a result, the amount of funds we are able to borrow under the Revolving Credit Facility would be effectively limited.
Senior Secured Notes
The Senior Secured Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of April 13, 2021, or, as amended, supplemented or modified from time to time, the Indenture, among the Company, the guarantors named therein and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee and notes collateral agent. The Indenture contains customary terms, events of default and covenants for an issuer of non-investment grade debt securities. These covenants include limitations on indebtedness, liens, mergers, acquisitions, asset sales, investments, distributions, prepayments of subordinated debt and transactions with affiliates, in each case subject to baskets, thresholds and other exceptions.
52
The Senior Secured Notes accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to 4.500% and will mature on April 15, 2029. Interest on the Senior Secured Notes is payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on October 15, 2021. On or after April 15, 2024, we may on any one or more occasions redeem some or all of the Senior Secured Notes at a purchase price equal to 102.250% of the principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date, such optional redemption price decreasing to 101.125% on or after April 15, 2025 and to 100.000% on or after April 15, 2026. Prior to April 15, 2024, we may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes with an amount not to exceed the net proceeds of certain equity offerings at 104.500% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. Prior to April 15, 2024, we may redeem some or all of the Senior Secured Notes at a make-whole price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. In addition, during any twelve-month period ending prior to April 15, 2024, we may redeem up to 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes at a purchase price equal to 103.000% of the principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. If a change of control occurs, we must offer to purchase for cash the Senior Secured Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the purchase date. Following the sale of certain assets and subject to certain conditions, we must offer to purchase for cash the Senior Secured Notes at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the purchase date.
The Senior Secured Notes are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by our subsidiaries that guarantee the Credit Facilities. The Senior Secured Notes and the note guarantees are secured by a first-priority lien on all the collateral that secures the Credit Facilities, subject to a shared lien of equal priority with the Company’s and each guarantor’s obligations under the Credit Facilities and subject to certain thresholds, exceptions and permitted liens.
Outstanding Debt
At October 1, 2022, we had $1,445.0 million outstanding under the Credit Facilities and the Senior Secured Notes, consisting of borrowings under the Term Loan Facility of $945.0 million, $0.0 drawn down on the Revolving Credit Facility and $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Senior Secured Notes issued and outstanding.
At October 1, 2022 and January 1, 2022, our debt consisted of both fixed and variable-rate instruments. Interest rate swaps were entered into to hedge a portion of the cash flow exposure associated with our variable-rate borrowings. Further information regarding our interest rate swaps can be found in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under Note 11 “Derivative Instruments and Hedging” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The weighted average interest rate (which includes amortization of deferred financing costs and debt discount) on our outstanding debt, exclusive of the impact of the swaps then in effect, was approximately 4.98% and 5.11% per annum at October 1, 2022 and January 1, 2022, respectively, based on interest rates on these dates. The weighted average interest rate (which includes amortization of deferred financing costs and debt discount) on our outstanding debt, including the impact of the swaps then in effect, was approximately 5.28% and 5.62% per annum at October 1, 2022 and January 1, 2022, respectively, based on interest rates on these dates.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss
Our accumulated other comprehensive loss includes changes in the fair value of derivative instruments and the effects of foreign currency translations. At October 1, 2022 and October 2, 2021, the cumulative balance of changes in the fair value of derivative instruments, net of taxes, was a gain of $9.9 million and a loss of $14.5 million, respectively. At October 1, 2022 and October 2, 2021, the cumulative balance of the effects of foreign currency translations, net of taxes, was a loss of $21.2 million and a loss of $6.5 million, respectively.
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 Credit Agreement governing the Credit Facilities and the Indenture governing the Senior Secured Notes, 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. 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. The repurchase program allows for shares to be purchased from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. No shares will be purchased from Artal Holdings Sp. z o.o., Succursale de Luxembourg and its parents and subsidiaries under this program. The repurchase program currently has no expiration date. During the nine months ended October 1, 2022 and October 2, 2021, we repurchased no shares of our common stock under this program.
EBITDAS, Adjusted EBITDAS and Net Debt
We define EBITDAS, a non-GAAP financial measure, as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation and Adjusted EBITDAS, a non-GAAP financial measure, as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, franchise rights acquired and goodwill impairments, net restructuring charges and early extinguishment of debt.

In addition, we believe EBITDAS, Adjusted EBITDAS and net debt/Adjusted EBITDAS are useful to investors, analysts and rating agencies in measuring the ability of a company to meet its debt service obligations. 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 experience 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 is 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 Securities and Exchange Commission (i.e., generally the same day as the filing), or the SEC. Moreover, 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 corporate Facebook page ( www.facebook.com/WW ), Instagram account (Instagram.com/WW) and Twitter account (@ww_us) as channels of distribution of Company information. The information we post through these channels may be deemed material. Accordingly, investors should monitor these channels, in addition to following our press releases, SEC filings and public conference calls and webcasts. The contents of our website and social media channels shall not be deemed to be incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITAT IVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As of October 1, 2022, 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 2021 have not materially changed from January 1, 2022.
At the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2022, borrowings under the Credit Facilities bore interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 3.50%. For the Term Loan Facility, the minimum interest rate for LIBOR applicable to such facility pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement was set at 0.50%, referred to herein as the LIBOR Floor. In addition, as of October 1, 2022, our interest rate swaps in effect had an aggregate notional amount of $500.0 million. Accordingly, as of October 1, 2022, based on the amount of variable rate debt outstanding and the then-current LIBOR rate, after giving consideration to the impact of the interest rate swaps and the LIBOR Floor, a hypothetical 90 basis point increase in interest rates would have increased annual interest expense by approximately $4.0 million and a hypothetical 90 basis point decrease in interest rates would have decreased annual interest expense by approximately $4.0 million. This increase and decrease would have been driven primarily by the interest rate applicable to our Term Loan Facility.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
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 officer 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 officer and our principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of October 1, 2022, the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2022. Based upon that evaluation and subject to the foregoing, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2022, 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.
