Weber Inc. (“Weber” or “the Company”) (NYSE: WEBR), the global leader in outdoor cooking products, innovation, and technology, today announced its financial results for the fiscal third quarter 2022, ending June 30, 2022.
Weber reports its financial performance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and as adjusted on a non-GAAP basis. Please see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” and “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Information” below for additional information and reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures.
For the quarter, Weber generated net sales of $528 million, gross profit of $154 million, a net loss of $52 million, and Adjusted EBITDA of $11 million.
“Weber is the #1 brand and the global category leader in outdoor cooking. We have an immense opportunity to expand our relationship with the more than 50 million dedicated Weber consumers worldwide, as well as grow our reach in the near and long-term,” said Alan Matula, interim Chief Executive Officer of Weber. “Our third quarter performance reflects the margin pressures we are experiencing as a result of global headwinds in our current operating environment. To strengthen our financial position for fiscal year 2023 and beyond, we are introducing a comprehensive cash flow and cost management plan, which will position Weber to enhance its leadership position in a dynamic outdoor cooking market.”
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2022
Subsequent to quarter end, as announced on July 25, 2022, the Weber Board of Directors suspended the quarterly cash dividend. The Company is assessing financing options to strengthen its balance sheet and is committed to working with its lending partners to remain in compliance with its credit agreement.
CASH FLOW AND COST MANAGEMENT PLAN
Following a detailed review, the Company has initiated a plan to manage cash flows, preserve liquidity, expand gross margins, and reduce SG&A expenses. The core components of this plan include the suspension of its quarterly cash dividend, a focused reduction of COGS and SG&A expenses, a reduction in force that removes management layers in the organization, and the tightening of global inventory levels and working capital positions. Management believes these actions will result in at least $110 million of cash benefit, net of restructuring costs, in fiscal year 2023, with run-rate benefits beyond that. More details on these initiatives will be provided on the Company’s fiscal third quarter 2022 conference call.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This press release contains certain financial measures not presented in accordance with GAAP, including Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net (Loss) Income, which are used by management in making operating decisions, allocating financial resources, and internal planning and forecasting and for business strategy purposes. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net (Loss) Income are not measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP and may exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing our financial results. The use of non-GAAP financial information should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, the comparable GAAP measures.

Management believes that such measures are commonly reported by issuers and widely used by investors as indicators of a company’s operating performance. Please refer to the reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net (Loss) Income to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP below.
