YogaWorks, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2018 Financial Results


LOS ANGELES, Aug. 14, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- YogaWorks, Inc. (NASDAQ:YOGA) (the “Company”), one of the largest providers of high quality yoga instruction in the U.S., today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2018.

Rosanna McCollough, President and Chief Executive Officer of YogaWorks, stated, “Our second quarter revenue exceeded our expectations mainly due to newly acquired studios.  While our EBITDA was within our guidance range, we have experienced softness in our base studio EBITDA margin.  Looking ahead, we are taking steps to improve sales and profitability in our base business and will be investing in additional marketing and training as well as reducing the class package promotions to focus on a more balanced product offering.

We are also pleased to add Sky Meltzer to our board of directors. Sky was most recently the CEO of Manduka and led the company's global expansion. We look forward to his perspectives and insights as we continue to grow our brand.”

Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial measures called Adjusted EBITDA, Studio-Level EBITDA, Adjusted free cash flow, Studio-Level free cash flow and Adjusted net loss which are not calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company uses these financial measures to understand and evaluate its business. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of the operating performance of the core business operations. Studio-Level EBITDA is a supplemental measure of the operating performance of the studios. Adjusted free cash flow is a supplemental measure of the operating performance of the core business operations excluding deferred revenue. Studio-Level free cash flow is a supplemental measure of the operating performance of the studios excluding deferred revenue. Adjusted net loss is a supplemental measure of operating performance that is adjusted for certain non-recurring items that we do not believe directly reflect the core business operations. Accordingly, the Company believes Adjusted EBITDA, Studio-Level EBITDA, Adjusted free cash flow, Studio-Level free cash flow and Adjusted net loss provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Company’s operating results in the same manner as management and the Board. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
