Beyond, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results
— Transforming its Asset-Light Ecommerce Retail Business into an Ecommerce and Affinity Data Monetization Model with a Strong Technology Focus —

MIDVALE, Utah - October 24, 2024 - Beyond, Inc. (NYSE:BYON), an asset-light ecommerce and affinity data monetization company offering a comprehensive array of products and services that enable its customers to unlock their home’s potential, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.

“We delivered sequential improvement in gross margin and continued to recognize the benefits of our cost reduction actions, ultimately delivering against our commitment to improve adjusted EBITDA,” said Adrianne Lee, Chief Financial and Administrative Officer. “We recently announced the sale of our headquarters, which is expected to close in the fourth quarter, and announced a $20 million annualized reduction in staff-related expenses as we drive towards profitability and continue create a more variable and leverageable cost structure to support our evolving business needs. All in, we expect to have reduced our fixed expense base by an annualized $65 million heading into 2025.”

“We are focused on driving specific actions to strengthen our core asset-light ecommerce business and transforming Beyond to an affinity marketing model,” said Dave Nielsen, President. “In our core business, we have identified four key areas of improvement: 1) marketing efficiency, 2) sales growth, 3) margin, and 4) expense management. As we continue to transform and build out our model, we intend to monetize data through our enhanced CRM and database capabilities, stand up a global loyalty program across both our owned and partnered brands, and leverage our IP through a variety of global licensing partnerships.”

“We are in the process of transforming our asset-light business into an affinity and data monetization model with a strong technology focus, comprised of a collection of brands offered on a comprehensive platform from which customers can unlock value within the four walls of their home and four corners of their property,” said Marcus Lemonis, Executive Chairman. “We are still in the early innings of creating a robust data cooperative that will serve as the affinity and loyalty program foundation, and having recently announced partnerships with both The Container Store and Kirkland’s Home, we are well on our way. What we are ultimately building at Beyond is intended to leverage the combined strengths of all involved parties, driving improved financial performance and shareholder value.”

Supplemental Operational Data
We measure our business using operational metrics, in addition to the financial metrics shown above and the non-GAAP financial measures explained below. We believe these metrics provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results and provide key performance indicators to track our progress. These indicators include changes in customer order patterns and the mix of products purchased by our customers.

Active customers represent the total number of unique customers who have made at least one purchase during the prior twelve-month period. This metric captures both the inflow of new customers and the outflow of existing customers who have not made a purchase during the prior twelve-month period.

Last twelve months (LTM) net revenue per active customer represents total net revenue in a twelve-month period divided by the total number of active customers for the same twelve-month period.

Orders delivered represents the total number of orders delivered in any given period, including orders that may eventually be returned. As we ship a large volume of packages through multiple carriers, actual delivery dates may not always be available, and in those circumstances, we estimate delivery dates based on historical data.

Average order value is defined as total net revenue in any given period divided by the total number of orders delivered in that period.

Orders per active customer is defined as orders delivered in a twelve-month period divided by active customers for the same twelve-month period.

The following table provides our key operating metrics:

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations
We are providing certain non-GAAP financial measures in this release and related earnings conference call, including adjusted diluted net loss per share, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow. We use these non-GAAP measures internally in analyzing our financial results and we believe they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating our ongoing operational performance and, in the case of free cash flow, our liquidity position, in the same manner as our management and board of directors. We have provided reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures in this earnings release. These non-GAAP financial measures should be used in addition to and in conjunction with the results presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures.

Adjusted diluted net loss per share is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated as net income (net loss) less the income or losses recognized from our equity method securities, net of related tax. We believe that this adjustment to our net income (net loss) before calculating per share amounts for the current period presented provides a useful comparison between our operating results from period to period.
7


Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated as net income (net loss) before depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, interest and other income (expense), provision (benefit) for income taxes, and special items. We believe the exclusion of certain benefits and expenses in calculating adjusted EBITDA facilitates operating performance comparisons on a period-to-period basis. Exclusion of items in the non-GAAP presentation should not be construed as an inference that these items are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring.

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated as net cash provided by or used in operating activities reduced by expenditures for property and equipment. We believe free cash flow is a useful measure to evaluate the cash impact of the operations of the business including purchases of property and equipment which are a necessary component of our ongoing operations.
