INTERACTIVE STRENGTH INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.
Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Description and Organization

Interactive Strength Inc. is the parent company of two leading brands serving the commercial and at-home markets with specialty fitness equipment and virtual training: CLMBR and FORME. CLMBR manufactures vertical climbing equipment and provides a unique digital and on-demand training platform. FORME is a hardware manufacturer and digital fitness service provider that combines award-winning smart gyms with live 1:1 personal training (from real humans) to deliver an immersive experience. The combination of technology with expert training leads to better outcomes for both consumers and trainers alike. CLMBR and FORME offer unique fitness solutions for both the commercial and at-home markets. Our Members are defined as any individual who has a Forme or CLMBR account through a paid connected fitness membership.

Initial Public Offering

In May 2023, the Company closed its initial public offering ("IPO") in which we issued and sold 1.5 million shares of common stock at a public offering price of $8.00 per share and excluding shares sold in the IPO by certain of our existing stockholders. Total proceeds, after deducting underwriting commissions of $1.2 million and other offering expenses of $4.6 million, was $6.2 million.

Acquisition of CLMBR, Inc.

On October 6, 2023, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with CLMBR and CLMBR1, LLC (collectively, the “Sellers”) to purchase and acquire substantially all of the assets and assume certain liabilities of the Sellers. On January 22, 2024, the Company and the Sellers entered into an amended and restated Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Amended Agreement”). On February 2, 2024, pursuant to the Amended Agreement, the Company completed the acquisition for a total purchase price of approximately $15.9 million, consisting of (i) cash of $30,000, (ii) shares of the Company’s common stock with a fair value of $1.0 million, 1,428,922 shares, (iii) shares of the Company’s non-voting Series B preferred stock with a fair value of $2.7 million, 1,500,000 shares, (iv) contingent consideration with a fair value of $1.3 million, and (v) the retirement of $9.4 million of senior debt and $1.4 million in related fees, such retirement to be in the form of a $1.4 million cash payment to the lender of the senior debt and the issuance of an $8.0 million promissory note to such lender (the “Acquisition”).

The Acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting under ASC 805, Business Combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at their estimated fair values as of February 2, 2024, with the remaining unallocated purchase price recorded as goodwill. See Note 21 that outlines the Company’s consideration transferred and the identifiable net assets acquired at their estimated fair value as of February 2, 2024.

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Interactive Strength Inc. and its subsidiaries in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, cash flows, and the changes in equity for the interim period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In accordance with Accounting Standards Update ASU No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), or ASU 205-40, management evaluated whether there are certain conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were issued.

As an emerging growth company, the Company is subject to certain inherent risks and uncertainties associated with the development of an enterprise. In this regard, since the Company’s inception, substantially all of management’s efforts have been devoted to making investments in research and development including the development of revenue generating products and services and the development of a commercial organization, all at the expense of short-term profitability.

As of the date the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were issued (the “issuance date”), management evaluated the following adverse conditions and events present at the Company in accordance with ASU 205-40:

Since its inception, the Company has incurred significant operating losses and used net cashflows in its operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company incurred a net operating loss of $9.4 million and used net cash in its operations of $2.9 million. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $178.3 million. Management expects the Company will continue to incur significant operating losses and use net cash in its operations for the foreseeable future.
As of the issuance date, the Company had approximately $0 million of cash or cash equivalents available to fund its operations and no available sources of financing or capital to sustain its operations for a period of 12 months beyond the issuance date.
The Company expects to incur substantial expenditures to invest in its operations and growth for the foreseeable future. In order to fund these investments, the Company will need to secure additional sources of credit from lenders or capital investment from public and private investors (collectively “outside capital”). While the Company is actively seeking to secure additional outside capital (and has historically been able to successfully secure such capital) to fund its operations, no additional outside capital has been secured or was deemed probable of being secured as of the issuance date. In addition, management can provide no assurance the Company will be able to secure additional outside capital or on acceptable terms. Absent an ability to secure additional outside capital in the very near term, the Company will be unable to meet fund its operations over the next 12 months beyond the issuance date.
As of March 31, 2024, the Company had total outstanding debt of approximately $19.1 million, all of which was classified as current in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. Approximately $4.9 million of this debt pertains to personal loans from certain individual related parties disclosed in Note 20. Several of these loans matured prior to March 31, 2024, but their repayment has been temporarily waived, and the remaining loans are scheduled to mature over the next 12 months beyond the issuance date. On March 29, 2024, the Company issued 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to the Lender. On April 24, 2024, the Company entered into a Loan Modification agreement reducing the outstanding debt and increasing stockholders deficit by $3.0 million and extending the maturity date to December 31, 2024. Accordingly, as of the issuance date, the Company’s total outstanding debt was approximately $16.1 million, including accrued, but unpaid interest and penalties on delayed interest payments, all of which is currently due or scheduled to mature over the next 12 twelve months beyond the issuance date. While the Company is actively seeking to secure additional outside capital (and has historically been able to successfully secure such capital) to repay these outstanding borrowings, no additional outside capital has been secured or was deemed probable of being secured as of the issuance date. In addition, management can provide no assurance the Company will be able to secure additional outside capital or on acceptable terms. In the event the Company is unable to secure additional outside capital and/or secure amendments or waivers from its lenders to defer or modify the repayment terms of the Company’s outstanding indebtedness, management will be required to seek other strategic alternatives, which may include, among others, a significant curtailment of the Company’s operations, a sale of certain of the Company’s assets, a sale of the entire Company to strategic or financial investors, and/or allowing the Company to become insolvent by filing for bankruptcy protection under the provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
The Company received a deficiency letter from the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) on January 26, 2024 notifying the Company that, for the last 30 consecutive business days, the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) has been below the minimum $1.00 per share required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (“Rule 5550(a)(2)”). The Nasdaq deficiency letter has no immediate effect on the listing of the Common Stock, and the Common Stock will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “TRNR” at this time. The Company has 180 calendar days, or until July 24, 2024, to regain compliance. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s securities must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days. If compliance is not regained by July 24, 2024, the Company may be eligible for additional time to regain compliance or if otherwise not eligible, the Company may request a hearing before a hearings panel. In the Company fails regain compliance and/or secure an extension, the Company will be subject to being delisted from the Nasdaq market. If a delisting occurs, the Company will be faced with a number of material adverse consequences, including limited availability of market quotations for its common stock; limited news and analyst coverage; decreased ability to obtain additional financing or failure to comply with the covenants required by the Company’s borrowing arrangement; limited liquidity for the Company’s stockholders due to thin trading; and a potential loss of confidence by investors, employees and other third parties who do business with the Company.

These uncertainties raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue to operate as a going concern, which contemplates that the Company will be able to realize assets and settle liabilities and commitments in the normal course of

business for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, for interim financial reporting and as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited condensed consolidated annual financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2024, the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the condensed consolidated statement of convertible preferred stock and stockholders' equity (deficit) as of March 31, 2024 and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. The financial data and other information disclosed in these notes related to the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 are unaudited. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024, any other interim periods, or any future year or period.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosures. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including, among others, those related to revenue related reserves, the realizability of inventory, fair value measurements, useful lives of long lived assets, including property and equipment and finite lived intangible assets, product warranty, stock-based compensation expense, warrant liabilities, accrual of acquisition earn-outs, estimated legal accruals, valuation of deferred taxes, valuation of embedded derivatives, and commitments and contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Segment Information

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate and discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company has one operating segment, the development and sale of its at-home fitness technology platform. The Company’s chief operating decision maker, its chief executive officer, manages the Company’s operations on a consolidated basis for the purpose of allocating resources. As the Company has one reportable segment, all required segment financial information is presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company currently operates in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Taiwan. As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, substantially all of the Company’s long-lived assets are held in the United States.

 

Cash

Cash consists of cash on deposit in banks.

Deferred Offering Costs

The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A “Expenses of Offering”. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to the IPO. The Company incurred offering costs amounting to $4.6 million through the IPO and subsequently classified the costs to additional paid in capital in 2023.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment purchased by the Company are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Major updates and improvements are capitalized, while charges for repairs and maintenance which do not improve or extend the lives of the respective asset, are expensed as incurred. The Company capitalizes the cost of pre-production tooling which it owns under a supply arrangement. Pre-production tooling, including the related engineering costs the Company will not own or will not use in producing products under long-term supply arrangements, are expensed as incurred.

Depreciation and amortization is computed on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives:

Lesser of lease term or estimated useful life

Inventories, net

Inventories, which are comprised of finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined using actual costs. The Company maintains inventory in a third-party warehouse. Reserves are established to reduce the cost of inventories to their estimated net realizable value and are reflected in cost of revenues in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The Company assessed the obsolescence reserve by evaluating factors such as inventory levels, historical sales, and the remaining life of its products. Inventory losses are written-off against the reserve. Inventory not expected to be sold in the next twelve months is classified as long-term in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Vendor Deposits

Vendor deposits represent prepayments made to the third-party manufacturers of the Company’s inventory. In general, the Company’s manufacturers require that the Company pay a portion of the costs for a manufacturing purchase order in advance, with the remaining cost being invoiced upon delivery of the products. Prior to receipt of the goods, any costs associated with the prepayments made by the Company are reflected as vendor deposits on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Capitalized Studio Content

Capitalized Studio content costs include certain expenditures to develop video and live content for the Company’s customers. The Company capitalizes production costs for recorded content in accordance with ASC 926-20, Entertainment-Films - Other Assets - Film Costs. The Company recognizes capitalized content, net of accumulated amortization, within other non-current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and recognizes the related amortization expense as a component of cost of revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Costs which qualify for capitalization include production costs, development costs, direct costs, labor costs, and production overhead. Expenditures for capitalized content are included within operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Based on certain factors, including historical and estimated user viewing patterns, the Company amortizes individual titles within the Studio content library on a straight-line basis over a three-year useful life. The Company reviews factors impacting the amortization of the capitalized Studio content on an ongoing basis. Estimates related to these factors require considerable management judgment.

The Company considered certain factors in determining the useful life of the content, including expected periods over which the content will be made available through the platform and related viewership, the lack of “obsolescence” of such content over such period given the nature of its videos (i.e., exercise classes which are not significantly impacted by changes in markets or customer preferences, and/or for which the content is expected to significantly change or evolve over time), and the expected significant growth of its subscriber base which will contribute to substantial increases in viewership over time given the recent launch of its product and membership offerings. Based on these factors, the Company has determined that a three-year (3-year) amortization period is reasonable for the content. The Company will continue to review factors impacting the amortization of the capitalized content on an ongoing basis.

The Company’s business model is membership based as opposed to generating revenues at a specific title level. Therefore, all content assets are monetized as part of a single asset group. The content is assessed at the group level when an event or change in circumstances indicates a change in the expected usefulness of the content or that fair value may be less than unamortized cost. Unamortized costs are assessed for impairment regardless of whether the produced content is completed. To date, the Company has recognized one impairment with regards to the carrying value of its content portfolio. If circumstances in the future suggest that an impairment may exist, these aggregated content assets will be stated at the lower of unamortized cost or fair value. In addition, unamortized costs for assets that have been, or are expected to be, abandoned are written off. The unamortized cost of content is approximately $1.8 million and $2.4 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

 

Capitalized Software Costs

The Company capitalizes certain eligible software development costs incurred in connection with its internal use software in accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal-use Software and ASC 985, Software. These capitalized costs also relate to the Company’s Studio software that is accessed by its customers on a membership basis as well as certain costs associated with its information systems. Capitalized software costs are amortized over the estimated useful life is three years. Capitalization begins once the

 

8


 

application development stage begins, management has authorized and committed to funding the project, it is probable the project will be completed, and the software will be used to perform the function intended. Internal and external costs, if direct and incremental, are capitalized until the software is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. The Company expenses all costs incurred that relate to planning and post-implementation phases of development. Intangible assets are assessed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate the existence of a possible impairment, and none were identified in the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and year ended December 31, 2023, the Company capitalized $0.0 million and $0.4 million, respectively, under ASC 350 included in intangible assets.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and year ended December 31, 2023, the Company capitalized $0.5 million and $1.9 million, respectively, under ASC 985 included in other assets.

Amortization is computed on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives:

 

Capitalized software and internal-use software



3 years

 

Music Royalty Fees

The Company recognizes music royalty fees as these fees are incurred in accordance with the terms of the relevant license agreement with the music rights holder. The incurrence of such royalties is primarily driven by the number of paid subscribers each month and it is classified as cost of membership and training within the Company’s statement of operations. The Company’s license agreements with music rights holders generally include provisions for advance royalties as well as minimum guarantees. When a minimum guarantee is paid in advance, the guarantee is recorded as a prepaid asset and amortized over the shorter of the period consumed or the term of the agreement. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 there were no music guarantee-related prepaids, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Subsequent changes in fair value of these financial assets and liabilities are recognized in earnings when they occur. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities which are required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which the Company would transact and the market-based risk measurement or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and credit risk.

The Company applies the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

Level 1 inputs are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 inputs are based on observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets), or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 inputs are based on unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities, and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company’s material financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, accrued expenses, convertible notes, and warrants. The carrying amounts of current financial instruments, which include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, contingent consideration, approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset (or asset group) to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the assets (or asset group). If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds their fair value.

Leases

The Company adopted the Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02” or “ASC 842”) as of January 1, 2022, using the modified retrospective method and utilized the effective date as its date of initial application, with prior periods presented in accordance with previous guidance under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 840, Leases. At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present in the arrangement. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and current and non-current lease liabilities, as applicable.

 

Bridge Notes

As permitted under ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, we have elected the fair value option to account for our November 2023 Bridge Notes. In accordance with ASC Topic 825, we record these bridge notes at fair value with changes in fair value recorded as a component of other (expense) income, net in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. As a result of applying the fair value option, direct costs and fees related to the bridge notes were expensed as incurred and were not deferred. In addition, the bridge notes meet other applicable criteria for electing fair value option under ASC Topic 825. The November 2023 Bridge Notes were converted to Series A Preferred Stock in February 2024 and March 2024. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were $0.0 million and $1.7 million, respectively of notes outstanding measured at fair value related to the November 2023 Bridge Notes.

Convertible Notes

As permitted under ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, the Company has elected the fair value option to account for its November 2022 convertible notes. In accordance with ASC Topic 825, the Company records these convertible notes at fair value with changes in fair value recorded as a component of other (expense) income, net in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. As a result of applying the fair value option, direct costs and fees related to the convertible notes were expensed as incurred and were not deferred. In addition, the convertible notes meet other applicable criteria for electing fair value option under ASC Topic 825.

In May 2023, upon closing of the Company's IPO, the convertible notes were converted into an aggregate of 565,144 shares of common stock.

In connection with the Company’s issuance of the December 2023 Convertible Notes (the “December 2023 Notes”), the Company bifurcated the embedded conversion option and redemption rights and recorded embedded conversion option and redemption rights as a short term derivative liability in the Company’s balance sheet in accordance with FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The convertible debt and the derivative liability associated with the December 2023 Notes is presented on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as convertible note payable and the embedded derivatives, respectively. The convertible debt is carried at amortized cost. The derivative liability will be remeasured at each reporting period using the lattice model with changes in fair value recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations in other expense (income). See Note 10 for further details.

The Company issued Convertible Notes in February 2024 (the “February 2024 Notes”). The convertible debt is presented in on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as convertible note payable. The convertible debt is carried at amortized cost. See Note 10 for further details.

Warrants

The Company account for common stock warrants as either equity-classified instruments or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant terms. The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to our Common Stock, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance, and, for liability-classified warrants, at each reporting period end date while the warrants are outstanding. The warrants are revalued on each subsequent balance sheet date until such instruments are exercised or expire, with any changes in the fair value between reporting periods recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

 

Commitments and Contingencies

Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties, and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated. If a loss is reasonably possible and the loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company discloses the possible loss or states that such an estimate cannot be made.

Revenue Recognition

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASC 606”) and all subsequent amendments. As the Company had not recognized any revenue prior to the adoption of the new standard, there was no impact on the measurement or timing of revenue recognition as a result of the adoption. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Refer to Note 3 for additional information.

 

 

Cost of Fitness Product Revenue

Cost of fitness product revenue relates to the Fitness Product costs, including manufacturing costs, duties and other applicable importing costs, shipping and handling costs, packaging, warranty replacement costs, fulfillment costs, warehousing costs, and certain allocated costs related to management, facilities, and personnel-related expenses associated with supply chain logistics. Cost of fitness product revenue also contains valuation losses related to the Company’s inventory lower of cost or market reserve.

 

Cost of Membership and Training

Membership costs include costs associated with the creation of content and training, including associated payroll, filming and production costs, other content specific costs, hosting fees, music royalties, amortization of capitalized software development costs, and warranty replacement and servicing costs associated with extended warranty contracts.

 

Advertising Costs

Advertising and other promotional costs to market the Company’s products are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses were $0.02 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and are included within sales and marketing expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

 

Research and Development Costs

Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel- and facilities-related expenses, consulting and contractor expenses, tooling and prototype materials software platform expenses, and depreciation of property and equipment. Substantially all of the Company’s research and development expenses are related to developing new products and services and improving existing products and services. Research and development expenses are expensed as incurred.

Stock-Based Compensation

In December 2020, the Board of Directors adopted the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (“the 2020 Plan”) and in April 2023, our board of directors adopted the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2023 Plan”). Stock-based awards are measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and are recognized as expense, net of actual forfeitures, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The determination of the grant date fair value of stock awards issued is affected by a number of variables, including the fair value of the Company’s common stock, the expected common stock price volatility over the expected life of the awards, the expected term of the stock option, risk-free interest rates, and the expected dividend yield of the Company’s common stock. The Company derives its volatility from the average historical stock volatilities of several peer public companies over a period equivalent to the expected term of the awards. The Company estimates the expected term based on the simplified method for employee stock options considered to be “plain vanilla” options, as the Company’s historical share option exercise experience does not provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the expected term. The risk-free interest rate is based on the United States Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Expected dividend yield is 0.0% as the Company has not paid and does not currently anticipate paying dividends on its common stock.

Stock-based compensation expense is classified in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations in the same manner in which the award recipient’s payroll costs are classified or in which the award recipient’s service payments are classified.

 

Foreign Currency Transactions

The functional currency for the Company’s wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries, Interactive Strength UK and Interactive Strength Taiwan, is the United States dollar. All foreign currency transaction gains and losses are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss through other income (expense). The Company recognized material currency transaction gains or losses during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

 

 

11


 

Comprehensive Loss

Comprehensive loss includes net loss as well as other changes in stockholders’ deficit that result from transactions and economic events other than those with stockholders. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, comprehensive loss included $0.04 million of foreign currency transaction gains and $0.1 million of foreign currency transaction loses, respectively.

Loss Per Share

The Company computes loss per share using the two-class method required for participating securities. The two-class method requires income available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between common stock and participating securities based upon their respective rights to receive dividends as if all income for the period had been distributed. The Company’s redeemable convertible preferred stock and common stock issued upon early exercise of stock options are participating securities. The Company considers any shares issued upon early exercise of stock options, subject to repurchase, to be participating securities because holders of such shares have non-forfeitable dividend rights in the event a cash dividend is declared on common stock. These participating securities do not contractually require the holders of such shares to participate in the Company’s losses. As such, net losses for the periods presented were not allocated to the Company’s participating securities.

Basic loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of outstanding shares of common stock during the period. Diluted earnings loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of outstanding shares of common stock and, when dilutive, potential shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Potential shares of common stock consist of incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options, employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”) shares to be issued, and vesting of restricted stock awards.

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes the asset and liability method for computing its income tax provision. Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the expected future consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities as well as operating loss, capital loss, and tax credit carryforwards, using enacted tax rates. Management makes estimates, assumptions, and judgments to determine the Company’s provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. The Company assesses the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent the Company believes recovery is not likely, establishes a valuation allowance.

The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement. Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, which to date have not been material, are recognized within income tax expense.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets with Indefinite Lives

Goodwill consists of the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations. The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles —Goodwill and Other”, which requires an annual impairment test for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. The Company may first choose to perform a qualitative evaluation of the likelihood of goodwill and intangible assets impairment. For the goodwill that was the result of current year acquisitions, the Company chose to perform a qualitative evaluation. If the Company determined a quantitative evaluation was necessary, the goodwill at the reporting unit was subject to a two-step impairment test. The first step compares the book value of a reporting unit, including goodwill, with its fair value. If the book value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the Company completes the second step in order to determine the amount of goodwill impairment loss that should be recorded. In the second step, the Company determines an implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit to all of the assets and liabilities other than goodwill. For the periods presented, the Company did not recognize any goodwill impairment as the estimated fair value of its reporting units with goodwill exceeded the book value of these reporting units. For additional information refer to Note 6—Goodwill and Intangible Assets.

The Company estimates the fair value of intangible assets based on an income approach using the relief-from-royalty method. This methodology assumes that, in lieu of ownership, a third party would be willing to pay a royalty in order to exploit the related benefits of these types of assets. This approach is dependent on a number of factors, including estimates of future growth and trends, royalty rates for this category of intellectual property, discount rates and other variables. The Company bases its fair value estimates on assumptions it believes to be reasonable, but which are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Actual future results may differ from those estimates. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the estimated fair value of the intangible asset is less than the carrying value. For the periods presented, the Company did not recognize any impairment of intangible assets with indefinite lives as the estimated fair value of its intangible assets with indefinite lives exceeded the book value of these reporting units.

Identifiable Intangible Assets

The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”, which establishes accounting standards for the impairment of long-lived assets such as property, plant and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization. The Company reviews long-lived assets to be held and-used for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. If the sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows over the remaining useful life of a long-lived asset group is less than its carrying amount, the asset is considered to be impaired. Impairment losses are measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds the fair value of the asset. The Company estimates fair value using the expected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risks associated with the recovery of the asset. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, there was no impairment of the identified intangible assets.

The Company’s intangible assets subject to amortization consist of developed technology, customer related intangibles, trademark and tradenames, and content that are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related intangible asset. The estimated useful lives of the respective intangible assets range from 3 years to 13 years.

Business Combinations

The Company accounts for business combinations under the provisions of ASC 805, Business Combinations, which requires that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all business combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. ASC 805 also specifies criteria that intangible assets acquired in a business combination must be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combinations and are expensed as incurred. If the business combination provides for contingent consideration, the Company records the contingent consideration at fair value at the acquisition date with changes in the fair value recorded through earnings.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), or other standard setting bodies and adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company qualifies as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) and has elected not to “opt out” of the extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company will adopt the new or revised standard at the time public companies adopt the new or revised standard and will do so until such time that the Company either (i) irrevocably elects to “opt out” of such extended transition period or (ii) no longer qualifies as an emerging growth company. As noted below, certain new or revised accounting standards were early adopted.

 

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2022-06

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference rate reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting.” The ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform. The amendments apply only to contracts and hedging relationships that reference London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. The amendments are elective and are effective upon issuance. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, “Reference rate reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the sunset date of Topic 848” which defers the expiration date for Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 until December 31, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new accounting guidance, but does not expect the adoption of the standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

ASU 2023-09

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” The ASU modifies income tax disclosures by requiring (i) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliations and (ii) the disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction, among other requirements. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2024 and should be applied on a prospective basis, with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new standard, which is limited to financial statement disclosures.

 

ASU 2023-07d

 

13


 

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” The amendments in the ASU improve reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. In addition, the amendments enhance interim disclosure requirements, clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit and loss, and provide new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, among other disclosure requirements. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years after December 15, 2024 and should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new standard, which is limited to financial statement disclosures.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s primary source of revenue is solely derived from the United States from sales of its Connected Fitness Products and related accessories and associated recurring Membership revenue, as well as from sales of personal training services recorded within Training revenue.

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;
Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
Determination of the transaction price;
Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

 

Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The Company’s revenue is reported net of sales returns, discounts and incentives as a reduction of the transaction price. The Company estimates its liability for product returns and concessions based on historical trends by product category, impact of seasonality, and an evaluation of current economic and market conditions and records the expected customer refund liability as a reduction to revenue, and the expected inventory right of recovery as a reduction of cost of revenue. If actual return costs differ from previous estimates, the amount of the liability and corresponding revenue are adjusted in the period in which such costs occur.

The Company applies the practical expedient as per ASC 606-10-50-14 and does not disclose information related to remaining performance obligations due to their original expected terms being one year or less.

The Company expenses sales commissions on its Connected Fitness Products when incurred because the amortization period would have been less than one year. These costs are recorded in Sales and marketing in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Connected Fitness Products

Connected Fitness Products include the Company’s portfolio of Connected Fitness Products and related accessories, delivery and installation services, and extended warranty agreements. The Company recognizes Connected Fitness Product revenue net of sales returns and discounts when the product has been delivered to the customer, except for extended warranty revenue which is recognized over the warranty period. The Company allows customers to return products within thirty days of purchase, as stated in its return policy.

 

Amounts paid for payment processing fees for credit card sales for Connected Fitness Products are included as a reduction to fitness product revenue in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Membership

The Company’s memberships provide unlimited access to content in its library of on-demand fitness classes. The Company’s memberships are offered on a month-to-month basis.

Amounts paid for membership fees are included within deferred revenue on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets and recognized ratably over the membership term. The Company records payment processing fees for its monthly membership charges within cost of membership in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Training

 

14


 

The Company’s training services are personal training services delivered through the Connected Fitness Products, third-party mobile devices and in-studio classes. Training revenue is recognized at the time the services are delivered.

Standard Product Warranty

The Company offers a standard product warranty that its Connected Fitness Products and related accessories will operate under normal, non-commercial use for a period of one year which covers the touchscreen, frame and all incorporated elements, and related accessories from the date of original delivery. The Company has the obligation, at its option, to either repair or replace the defective product. At the time revenue is recognized, an estimate of future warranty costs are recorded as a component of cost of revenue. Factors that affect the warranty obligation include historical as well as current product failure rates, service delivery costs incurred in correcting product failures, and warranty policies and business practices.

The Company also offers the option for customers in some markets to purchase a third-party extended warranty and service contract that extends or enhances the technical support, parts, and labor coverage offered as part of the base warranty included with the Connected Fitness Product for an additional period of 24 to 48 months.

For third-party extended warranty service sold along with the Company’s Connected Fitness Products, the Company does not obtain control of the warranty before transferring it to the customers. Therefore, the Company accounts for revenue related to the fees paid to the third-party extended warranty provider on a net basis, by recognizing only the net commission it retains. The Company considers multiple factors when determining whether it obtains control of third-party products including, but not limited to, evaluating if it can establish the price of the product, retains inventory risk for tangible products or has the responsibility for ensuring acceptability of the product.

November 2022 Convertible Notes

In November 2022, the Company issued convertible notes (the “November 2022 Convertible Notes”) with an aggregate principal amount of $4.4 million, pursuant to a private placement offering. The November 2022 Convertible Notes bore interest at 6% per annum and had a schedule maturing date of 12 months from issuance, at which time the principal and accrued interest would be due and payable. The Company elected the fair value option for the November 2022 Convertible Notes under ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, with changes in fair value recorded in earnings each reporting period.

The November 2022 Convertible Notes did not include any financial covenants and are subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of specified events of default. The November 2022 Convertible Notes were subject to the following conversion features:

In the event the Company completed a qualified financing, which is defined as the sale of preferred stock for gross proceeds of at least $10.0 million prior to the maturity date of the related notes, all principal and accrued interest will automatically convert into preferred stock.
In the event the Company did not complete a qualified financing prior to the maturity date of the related notes, at the election of the note holder, all principal and accrued interest can be converted into common stock.

 

The conversion price with respect to an automatic conversion upon the occurrence of a qualified financing is equal to the lesser of i) the price per share in the Next Financing round, or ii) the Original Issue Price of the Company’s Series A-2 Preferred Stock, which is $47.67. The conversion price with respect to an elective conversion at the time of maturity is equal to the Cap Price.

The Company recognized losses equal to $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 related to changes in fair value for the November 2022 Convertible Notes.

For the outstanding warrants as of March 31, 2024, management determined the fair value of the warrants using the following significant unobservable inputs: (1) probability and timing of events, (2) expected future equity value of the underlying shares at the time of conversion, and (3) a risk free rate of 4.2%. The fair value of the warrants of $0.5 million was recorded as a long-term liability upon issuance. The Company recorded a change in fair value of warrants of $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

The Company converted debt to Series A Preferred Stock on March 29, 2024 at the lowest price of $1.50 a share, implying an effective common share price of $0.5626 per share and pursuant to the warrant agreement entered into with 3i in December 2023, the warrant to purchase shares of common stock increased to 2,054,035 following the dilutive issuance whereas the exercise price was reduced to an amount equal to the new issuance price.

The fair value of the warrants was determined using a Black-Scholes-Merton model, in which the probability and timing of potential future events is considered in order to estimate the fair value of the warrants as of each valuation date. For the outstanding warrants as March 31, 2024, management determined the fair value of the warrants using the following significant unobservable inputs: (1) probability and timing of events, (2) expected future equity value of the underlying shares at the time of conversion, and (3) a risk free rate of 4.2%. The fair value of the warrants of $1.8 million was recorded as a long-term liability upon issuance.

Leases

Lease Obligations

The Company adopted ASC 842 on January 1, 2022, using the effective date transition method, which requires a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings on the effective date. As a result of the adoption of ASC 842, the Company recognized right-of-use assets and lease liabilities of $0.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively, as of January 1, 2022, effective date. There was no impact to opening retained earnings from the adoption of ASC 842.

The Company has made certain assumptions and judgements when applying ASC 842 including the adoption of the package of practical expedients available for transition. The practical expedients allowed the Company to not reassess (i) whether expired or existing contracts contained leases, (ii) lease classification for expired or existing leases and (iii) previously capitalized initial direct costs. The Company also elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases (leases with a term of twelve months or less).

Operating lease arrangements primarily consist of office and warehouse leases expiring at various years through 2028. The facility leases have original lease terms of two to seven years and contain options to extend the lease up to 5 years or terminate the lease. Options to extend are included in leased right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet when the Company is reasonably certain it will renew the underlying leases. Since the implicit rate of such leases is unknown and the Company is not reasonably certain to renew its leases, the Company has elected to apply a collateralized incremental borrowing rate to facility leases on the original lease term in calculating the present value of future lease payments. As of March 31, 2024, the weighted average discount rate for operating leases was 9.50% and the weighted average remaining lease term for operating leases was 2.7 years, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, the weighted average discount rate for operating leases was 9.49% and the weighted average remaining lease term for operating leases was 4.42 years, respectively. The Company has entered into various short-term operating leases for office and warehouse space, with an initial term of twelve months or less. These short-term leases are not recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet and the related lease expense for these short-term leases was $0.01 million and $0.03 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Operating lease cost was $0.08 million and $0.02 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Total operating lease cost was $0.09 million and $0.05 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Right-of-use assets of $0.0 million and $0.0 million were obtained in exchange for lease liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Total right-of-use assets of $0.4 million and operating lease liabilities of $0.4 million were acquired in the Acquisition and recorded at fair value on the acquisition date.

The following represents the Company’s minimum annual rental payments under operating leases for each of the next five years and thereafter:

Commitments and Contingencies

 

Royalty Agreement

 

In 2017, the Company entered into a royalty agreement with Fuseproject and agreed to pay 3% of cumulative net sales up to $5.0 million and 1% of cumulative net sales above $5.0 million, up to a maximum total royalty of $1.0 million. Regardless of the level of

 

27


 

cumulative net sales, a guaranteed minimum payment of $0.2 million shall be paid in the first 12 months after the products initial retail release as an advance towards the royalty payments which was accrued as of March 31, 2024.

 

Legal Proceedings

On March 7, 2024, a petition was filed by Tung Keng Enterprise Co., Ltd. d/b/a DK City Co., Ltd. (“DK City”) against CLMBR and the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado to enforce a monetary arbitration award of approximately $2.25 million against CLMBR (the “Petition”). The Company was not involved in that prior arbitration, which involved alleged breaches of an equipment manufacturing agreement between CLMBR and DK City and was resolved prior to the Company’s purchase of CLMBR. We dispute that we are liable for the amount claimed by DK City in our Petition. We plan to vigorously defend the Petition if and when called to answer or respond to the Petition. The final outcome of this matter, however, cannot be predicted with complete certainty, and our failure to successfully defend against these allegations could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation.

The Company is involved in legal proceedings in the normal course of business. The Company currently believes that any ultimate liability arising out of such proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Stockholders’ Deficit

Common Stock

The Company’s authorized common stock consisted of 900,000,000 shares at $0.0001 par value, as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The issued and outstanding common stock was 19,433,801 shares and 14,192,083 shares as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

In February 2023, the Company completed a rights offering involving the sale of Class A common stock to all existing accredited investors as of December 19, 2022, at a price equal to approximately $0.51 per share. In connection with the rights offering, the Company issued a total of 9,749,439 shares of Class A common stock, of which 1,072,438 was issued in December 2022, and 8,677,001 was issued in January and February 2023.

 

Preferred Stock

In January 2024, our board authorized the proposed issuance of shares of non-voting Series A and Series B convertible preferred stock. The Company's authorized preferred stock consists of 200,000,000 shares at $0.0001 par value as of March 31, 2024. The Series A Certificate designated 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock. The Series B Certificate designated 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock as Series B Preferred Stock. The remaining unissued shares of our authorized preferred stock are undesignated. On April 18, 2024 the Series A Certificate was amended increasing designated shares from 5,000,000 to 7,000,000.

The Series A convertible preferred stock is subject to certain rights, preferences, privileges, and obligations, including voluntary and mandatory conversion provisions, as well as beneficial ownership restrictions and share issuance caps, as described below and as set forth in the Series A Certificate. The Series A convertible preferred stock can be issued at any time and any subsequent mandatory or voluntary conversion into common stock shall be at a conversion price at least equal to or above the closing price per share of the Common Stock as reported on Nasdaq on the last trading day immediately preceding the date that the Series A Certificate was approved by our board of directors, subject to customary adjustments for stock splits and combinations.

 

The Series A convertible preferred stock includes the following:

Subject to certain restrictions specified in the Series A Certificate, and applicable legal and regulatory requirements, including without limitation, the listing requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market, (i) each share of Series A convertible preferred stock is convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time, provided that such conversion occurs at least 12 months following the Original Issuance Date (as defined in the Series A Certificate), into such whole number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock as is determined by dividing the Original Issue Price (as defined in the Series A Certificate) by the Conversion Price (as defined in the Series A Certificate) in effect at the time of conversion, and (ii) upon the earliest Mandatory Conversion Time (as defined in the Series A Certificate) all outstanding shares of Series A convertible preferred stock shall automatically be converted into shares of common stock;
In no event shall any share of Series A convertible preferred stock convert into shares of common stock if the total number of shares of common stock issued would exceed 19.99% of the total number of our shares of common stock outstanding as of immediately prior to the adoption of the Series A Certificate;

 

28


 

Dividends accrue on each share of Series A convertible preferred stock at the rate per annum of 8% of the Original Issue Price of such share, plus the amount of previously accrued dividends, compounded annually, subject to certain restrictions and provisions as set forth in the Series A Certificate; and
The Series A convertible preferred stock does not have any voting rights, other than any vote required by law or our certificate of incorporation (which does not currently provide for any such voting rights).

 

The Series B convertible preferred stock includes the following:

Subject to certain conversion restrictions as specified in the Series B Certificate, and applicable legal and regulatory requirements, including without limitation, the listing requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market, subject to and upon the receipt of the approval of the stockholders of the Company, and provided that such conversion occurs at least 24 months following the Original Issuance Date (as defined in the Series B Certificate), each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be automatically converted into such whole number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the $2.00 original issue price (subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization) by the Conversion Price (as defined in the Series B Certificate) in effect at the time of conversion.
In the event that stockholder approval is not obtained, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock may voluntarily convert the Series B Preferred Stock into Common Stock, provided that in no event shall the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon such voluntary conversion exceed 19.99% of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of immediately prior to the execution of the Asset Purchase Agreement.
The Series B Preferred Stock does not have any voting rights, other than any vote required by law or the Company’s certificate of incorporation (which does not currently provide for any such voting rights) and is not entitled to any dividends.

 

The Company classifies Series B Preferred Stock in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, as there are conversion features that are subject to shareholder approval which is outside of the Company and therefore the securities should be classified outside of permanent stockholders’ deficit. Accordingly, the Company has classified Series B Preferred Stock as mezzanine equity in the accompanying financial statements as of March 31, 2024. Once shareholder approval is completed which is scheduled to take place on May 31, 2024, the Company will reevaluate the presentation of Series B Preferred Stock.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, $0.2 million and $0.4 million of stock-based compensation was capitalized as software costs, respectively.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company granted options to purchase 0 shares under the 2023 and 2020 Plan. The Company has not granted any restricted stock or stock appreciation rights.

In December 2022, the Company enacted a restructuring cost savings initiative which resulted in employee terminations in both December 2022 and January 2023. In association with January 2023 terminations, the Company accelerated the vesting of a number of individual option awards, resulting in the accelerated vesting of 5,938 shares on the date of modification. Also in January 2023, the Company repriced 301,537 option awards. Both the accelerated vesting and repricing were accounted for as an equity award modification under ASC Topic 718 which resulted in adjustment of the award value to reflect the fair value at the modification date and acceleration of the recognition schedule in the case of awards which were modified to have accelerated vesting. The adjustment resulted in additional expense of $0.5 million.

 

29


 

In June 2023, the Company granted 1,294,998 options to non-employee directors, selected executives and other key employees where vesting is contingent on the Company's share price meeting certain targets. The fair value of each option granted was estimated on the date of grant using the Monte Carlo valuation model and assumes that share price targets are achieved.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 the weighted-average grant date fair value per option was $0.00 and $18.86 respectively. The fair value of each option was estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes method with the following assumptions:

With respect to the 2023 and 2020 Plan, the Company recognized stock compensation expense of $3.4 million and $14.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, of which $0.2 million and $0.4 million was capitalized as software costs for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had $13.5 million and $17.1 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years and 1.7 years, respectively.

 

For financial reporting purposes for the awards granted in January 2023, we applied a straight-line calculation between the $30.00 per share determined in the contemporaneous third-party valuation as of December 31, 2022 and the $6.08 per share determined in the contemporaneous third-party valuation as of March 31, 2023 to determine the fair value of our common stock on the grant date. Using the benefit of hindsight, we determined that the straight-line calculation would provide the most appropriate conclusion for the valuation of our common stock on the interim dates between valuations because we did not identify any single event or series of

 

30


 

events that occurred during this interim period that would have caused a material change in fair value. Based on this calculation, we assessed the fair value of our common stock for awards granted in January 2023 to be $19.27 per share.

 

17.
Concentration of Credit Risk and Major Customers and Vendors

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are maintained with high-quality financial institutions, the compositions and maturities of which are regularly monitored by management.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no customers representing greater than 10% of the Company’s total revenue.

The Company had three vendors representing greater than 10% of total finished goods purchases for the three months ended March 2023. The Company had no vendors representing greater than 10% of total finished goods for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

18.
Benefit Plans

The Company established a defined contribution savings plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. This plan covers all employees who meet minimum age and service requirements and allows participants to defer a portion of their annual compensation on a pre-tax basis. Matching contributions to the plan may be made at the discretion of the Company’s board of directors. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not make any contributions to the plan.

Related Party Transactions

In the ordinary course of business, we may enter into transactions with directors, principal officers, their immediate families, and affiliated companies in which they are principal stockholders (commonly referred to as “related parties”).

Principal Stockholder Promissory Notes

During 2019, 2020, and 2021 the Company entered into the following promissory notes with a then-principal stockholder (the "former principal stockholder”) of the Company:

On May 17, 2019, a $2.0 million note with interest at the rate of 2.5% per annum and maturity date of May 17, 2021. The note includes additional interest and fees associated with it upon the occurrence of default for late payment. Upon default, the Company shall pay a fee of 5% of the outstanding principal balance and accrued interest and from that point further interest shall accrue at an additional rate of 7.5%. This note is secured by a lien on and security interest in all right, title and interest of the Company’s assets. The security interest will continue until all obligations under the note are satisfied. The total outstanding principal balance including accrued interest as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $2.7 million and $2.7 million, respectively.
On August 28, 2019, a $1.0 million note with interest at the rate of 5.0% per annum and a maturity date of August 28, 2021. The note includes additional interest and fees associated with it upon the occurrence of default for late payment.

Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the financial statement issuance date, May 15, 2024, pursuant to ASC 855-10 Subsequent Events.

 

Loan Modification and Loan Restoration Agreement

On April 24, 2024 (the “Effective Date”), the Company entered into a Loan Modification Agreement with the Lender (the “Modification Agreement”). Pursuant to the Modification Agreement, the Company agreed to make monthly payments of interest in the amount of $60,000 to the Lender. In addition, the Company agreed to make mandatory principal payments simultaneously with the closing of all future capital raises by the Company or any affiliate of the Company. The first principal payment will be the greater of (i) $3,000,000 (the “Minimum Payment”) or (ii) 20% of the net amount raised from any source of debt, equity, synthetic equity instruments or otherwise less any reasonable expenses paid to third parties (the “Net Capital Raise”). At each capital raise thereafter, the Company shall make a mandatory principal payment to the Lender of 20% of the Net Capital Raise. As of the Effective Date, the outstanding principal amount of the Loan was $4,957,863.06.

On April 24, 2024, the Company entered into a Loan Restoration Agreement with the Lender (the “Restoration Agreement”). Pursuant to the Restoration Agreement, in the event the aggregate amount of funds received by the Lender (net of all commissions, transfer fees or other transaction fees of any kind and taxes paid or payable as a result thereof) arising out of the disposition of the Preferred Stock, shares of the Company’s Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock, if converted by the Lender, or any other securities of the Company issued to the Lender as a result of its holding the Preferred Stock (the aggregate amount of funds, the “Net Trade Value”) received by the Lender on or before December 31, 2024 is less than $3,000,000, within ten (10) business days of written demand therefor, the Company shall pay the Lender the amount that is equal to $3,000,000 less the Net Trade Value. In the event the Net Trade Value is greater than $3,100,000, any amount in excess of $3,100,000 being the “Excess Amount”, the Excess Amount shall be applied by the Lender as follows:

a)
Fifty percent (50%) of the Excess Amount shall be distributed to the Lender as additional gain on the sale of the Preferred Stock;
b)
The remaining fifty percent (50%) of the Excess Amount shall be applied by Lender as a partial payment by the Company of the Origination Fee, which equaled $1,550,000 and the Enhancement Fee, which equaled $750,000;
c)
After the application of the funds as set forth above and provided that the Minimum Payment in the Modification Agreement has not yet been received, such Minimum Payment shall be reduced by a percentage of the “Base Trade Value”, which is the Net Trade Value less the Excess Amount, in accordance with the formulas and schedule as set forth in the Restoration Agreement. By way of example, if the Lender realizes a Base Trade Value of $2,400,000 prior to receipt of the Minimum Payment, then a Discount Percentage of 40% would apply, resulting in a reduction of the Minimum Payment to $1,800,000, calculated as follows:

($2,400,000 / $3,000,000) x 50% = 40% (being the Discount Percentage)

$3,000,000 x 60% (being 1 – 0.40) = $1,800,000 (being the Minimum Payment)

 

Series A Preferred Stock Issuance

 

On May 17, 2024, the Company issued 1,153,981 shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to three accredited investors, who are an existing investors of the Company, upon the conversion of certain outstanding promissory notes entered into in April 2024 and May 2024 in the aggregate amount of approximately $1.2 million.

Overview

Interactive Strength Inc. is the parent company of two leading brands serving the commercial and at-home markets with specialty fitness equipment and virtual training: CLMBR and FORME. CLMBR manufactures vertical climbing equipment and provides a unique digital and on-demand training platform. FORME is a hardware manufacturer and digital fitness service provider that combines award-winning smart gyms with live 1:1 personal training (from real humans) to deliver an immersive experience. The combination of technology with expert training leads to better outcomes for both consumers and trainers alike. CLMBR and FORME offer unique fitness solutions for both the commercial and at-home markets.

 

Key milestones in our growth history include:

May 2017 – Interactive Strength Inc. founded
July 2021 – Commenced commercial delivery of FORME Studio (fitness mirror), our first connected fitness hardware product
July 2022 – Live 1:1 personal training service launched
August 2022 – Commenced commercial delivery of FORME Studio Lift (fitness mirror and cable-based digital resistance)
April 2023 – Interactive Strength went public on NASDAQ with ticker TRNR
February 2024 – Acquired substantially all of the assets of CLMBR, Inc.

 

Our revenue is primarily generated from the sale of our connected fitness hardware products and associated recurring membership revenue. As we launched our first connected fitness hardware product in July 2021, we began generating revenue from sales of our products starting in the second half of 2021.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we generated total revenue of $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively, and incurred net losses of $11.4 million and $16.0 million, respectively. As we generated recurring net losses and negative operating cash flow during the research and development stage of the Forme Studio and Forme Studio Lift products, we have funded our operations primarily with gross proceeds from the sales of our redeemable convertible preferred stock, the sale of our SAFE notes, the issuance of convertible notes, and the issuance of common stock.

Business Model and Growth Strategy

 

Acquire complementary businesses that generate attractive synergies

We acquired CLMBR in February 2024 and believe that there are other compelling businesses to be acquired. We expect that we will be able to acquire revenue-generating businesses, which would generate higher earnings and cashflow through synergies with our

 

40


 

existing business. Our team has significant experience in M&A and we are one of the few companies in our industry with a public currency, which we believe makes us an attractive acquiror.

 

Leverage well established equipment distributors to scale in commercial channels

We have high value partnerships with distributors, including Woodway, to sell CLMBR and FORME products into a variety of commercial environments. These relationships allow us to leverage the sales knowledge, relationships and specialization of third parties to accelerate our sales initiatives. Importantly, this construct allows us to make the vast majority of our sales related expenses variable, as we typically pay commissions only when units are sold.

 

Expand into new geographies

We intend to expand the international reach of our product and service offerings. With more than 180 million people belonging to gyms globally in 2019, according to IHRSA, we believe there is significant opportunity to grow internationally. For example, we are currently evaluating potential international expansion in the United Kingdom and Canada, although we have not yet made any definitive plans regarding such expansion or the potential timing thereof. We plan to continue to pursue disciplined international expansion by targeting countries with high fitness penetration and spend, as well as the presence of boutique fitness, and where we believe both CLMBR and FORME’s value propositions will resonate.

 

Increase uptake of add-on services through compelling member experience

We intend to increase uptake of our add-on memberships and services by providing a compelling member experience focused on introducing our members to the variety of services available on our platform and specifically, the value-added benefits of our coaching and personal training offering. We believe our ability to provide service offerings at a number of price points will serve as a valuable lever for growth by increasing overall service revenues over time.

 

Reduce the cost of personal training and expand addressable market without sacrificing quality

We intend to continue to explore ways to leverage our products, technology, and proprietary trainer education platform to bring the cost of coaching down incrementally, while maintaining an unwavering focus on the quality of the coaching experience we deliver to our members. This strategy is key to our medium- to long-term objectives, as we believe we can expand the addressable market for coaching services by reducing the per session cost and increasing accessibility of expert coaching services through our hardware and mobile experiences.

 

Build out partnership ecosystem

We intend to continue to build our strategic partner ecosystem with a focus on relationships that enable us to extend our platform to new audiences. We are pursuing opportunities in a number of attractive verticals, including sports, physical therapy and rehabilitation, and telemedicine. We are continuously identifying and evaluating opportunities to apply our coaching know-how in new and innovative ways to expand our reach and impact.

 

Expand corporate wellness

We intend to expand our recently launched corporate wellness initiative. Historically, corporate wellness programs were generally one-size-fits-all solutions for employees, such as corporate gyms. The rise of the hybrid workforce has made robust corporate wellness both an imperative and a challenge for many companies. We believe our comprehensive product portfolio makes us a better fit for modern corporate wellness programs than many existing alternatives. Our solution enables corporations to provide all of their employees with a coaching platform regardless of whether they work from home, in the office, or both. Our multi-pronged service offering also provides a new level of customization that can be adapted to employees at virtually all levels of tenure.

 

Factors Affecting Our Performance

Our financial condition and results of operations have been, and will continue to be, affected by a number of factors, including the following:

We have a limited operating history; and our past financial results may not be a reliable indicator of our ability to successfully establish our product and service offerings in the marketplace, or of our future performance, and our revenue growth rate is likely to slow as our business matures.
We derive a significant majority of our revenue from sales of our Forme Studio and Forme Lift equipment and if sales of our Forme Studio and Forme Lift equipment decline, it would materially and negatively affect our future revenue and results of operations.
Our membership revenue is largely dependent on our ability to sell our Forme Studio equipment and if sales of our Forme Studio equipment decline, our membership revenue would decline, and it would materially and negatively affect our

 

41


 

future revenue and results of operations. Similarly, we may be unable to attract and retain members, which could have an adverse effect on our business and rate of growth.
If we fail to compete successfully against existing and future competitors, we may fail to obtain a meaningful market share, which in turn would harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Increases in component and equipment costs, long lead times, supply shortages, and supply changes could disrupt our supply chain and negatively impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The sufficiency of our liquidity and capital resources, and our ability to obtain additional funding as needed for our operations and to execute our strategy.
Our ability to execute or realize the anticipated benefits of any strategic acquisition or transaction.

We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, some disruptions to parts of our supply chain, including procuring necessary components or parts in a timely fashion, with suppliers increasing lead times or placing products on allocation and raising prices. In addition, disruptions to commercial transportation infrastructure have increased delivery times for materials and components or parts of our fitness equipment, and has impacted, and could in the future impact, our ability to timely deliver our products to customers. These supply chain disruptions have not materially affected our business outlook and goals or our operating results, including our sales, revenue, or liquidity or capital resources, and we have not implemented any mitigation efforts to date as a result. However, we cannot predict the impact to us of any future or prolonged supply chain disruptions or any mitigation efforts we may take going forward. For example, as a result of these supply chain disruptions, we may be required to increase customer order lead times and place some products on allocation. In addition, we may consider additional or alternative third-party manufacturing and logistics providers or suppliers. Such mitigation efforts may result in cost increases and any attempts to offset such increases with price increases may result in reduced sales, increased customer dissatisfaction, or otherwise harm our reputation. Further, if we were to elect to transition or add manufacturing or logistics providers or suppliers, it may result in temporary or additional delays in product delivery or risks related to consistent product quality or reliability. This in turn may limit our ability to fulfill customer orders and we may be unable to satisfy all of the demand for our products. We may in the future also purchase components further in advance, which in return can result in less capital being allocated to other activities such as marketing and other business needs. We cannot quantify the impact of such disruptions at this time or predict the impact of any mitigation efforts we may take in response to supply chain disruptions on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

In addition, customer demand for our products may be impacted by weak economic conditions, inflation, weak growth, recession, equity market volatility, or other negative economic factors in the United States or other nations. The United States has recently experienced historically high levels of inflation. If the inflation rate continues to increase, it will likely affect our expenses, including, but not limited to, employee compensation expenses, increased manufacturing and supplier costs, and increasing market prices of certain components, parts, supplies, and commodity raw materials, which are incorporated into our products or used by our suppliers to manufacture our products. These components, parts, supplies, and commodities may from time to time become restricted, or general market factors and conditions may affect pricing of such components, parts, supplies and commodities, such as inflation or supply chain constraints. Given our limited operating history, we cannot predict how ongoing or increasing recessionary or inflationary pressures may impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations in the future.

Key Operational and Business Metrics

In addition to the measures presented in our condensed consolidated financial statements, we use the following key operational and business metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance, develop financial forecasts, and make strategic decisions. We may in the future elect to use additional metrics, discontinue the use of current metrics, or adjust our methodology or definitions of our operational and business metrics as our business evolves.

With the acquisition of CLMBR, Inc., and the evolution of the FORME business, the Company is now primarily selling to commercial customers ("B2B") and therefore the previously reported Key Operational and Business Metrics associated with a direct to consumer business model ("DTC") are not indicative of the performance of the business. Therefore, the Company will no longer report the following Key Operational and Business Metrics: Households, Members, Annual Recurring Revenue, Average Annualized Recurring Revenue per Household, and Net Dollar Retention Rate.

Components of Our Operating Results

We generate revenue from sales of our connected fitness products, membership revenue, and personal training revenue. We identify our reportable segment based on the information used by management to monitor performance and make operating decisions. See Note 2 of the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report for additional information regarding our reportable segment.

Revenue

Connected Fitness Product

Connected Fitness Product revenue consists of sales of our connected fitness products and related accessories, delivery and installation services, and extended warranty agreements offered through a third-party. Fitness Product revenue is recognized at the time of delivery, except for extended warranty revenue which is recognized over the warranty period. For the third-party extended warranty service sold along with the connected fitness products, we do not obtain control of the warranty before transferring it to the customers. Therefore, we account for revenue related to the fees paid to the third-party extended warranty provider on a net basis, by recognizing only the net commission we retain. Connected fitness product revenue represented 15% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 46% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Membership

Membership revenue consists of revenue generated from our monthly Connected Fitness membership. Membership revenue represented 43% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 15% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Training

Training revenue consists of sales of our personal training services delivered through our connected fitness products and third-party mobile devices. Training revenue is recognized at the time of delivery. Training revenue represented 43% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 39% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

 

43


 

Cost of Revenue

Connected Fitness Product

Connected Fitness Product cost of revenue consists of Studio and Studio Lift and accessories product costs, including manufacturing costs, duties and other applicable importing costs, shipping and handling costs, packaging, warranty replacement costs, fulfillment costs, warehousing costs, and certain allocated costs related to management and facilities expenses associated with supply chain logistics.

Membership

Membership cost of revenue includes costs associated with personnel related expenses, filming and production costs, hosting fees, music royalties, and amortization of capitalized software development costs.

Training

Training cost of revenue includes costs associated with personnel related expenses.

Operating Expenses

Research and Development

Research and development expense primarily consists of personnel and facilities-related expenses, consulting and contractor expenses, tooling and prototype materials, and software platform expenses. We capitalize certain qualified costs incurred in connection with the development of internal-use software and software to be sold or marketed which may also cause research and development expenses to vary from period to period.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expense consists of performance marketing media spend, asset creation, and other brand creative, all showroom expenses and related lease payments, payment processing fees incurred in connection with the sale of our connected fitness products, and sales and marketing personnel-related expenses.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expense includes personnel-related expenses and facilities-related costs primarily for our executive, finance, accounting, legal, human resources, and IT functions. General and administrative expense also includes fees for professional services principally comprised of legal, audit, tax and accounting services, and insurance.

We expect to incur additional general and administrative expenses as a result of operating as a public company, including expenses related to compliance and reporting obligations of public companies, and increased costs for insurance, investor relations expenses, and professional services. As a result, we expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase in absolute dollars in future periods and vary from period to period as a percentage of revenue, but we expect to leverage these expenses over time as we grow our revenue and member base.

 

44


 

Other (Expense) Income, Net

Other (expense) income, net consists of unrealized currency gains and losses, expenses related to equity line of credit commitment, and gain on conversion of accounts payable to Series A Preferred Stock.

Interest Expense

Interest expense consists of interest associated with the related party loans, term loans, convertible notes, senior secured notes and waiver consideration granted to December 2023 Notes and Equity Line of Credit.

Change in Fair Value of Convertible Notes

The change in fair value of convertible notes consists of the change in the fair value of the outstanding convertible notes since the previous reporting period.

Change in Fair Value of Warrants

The change in fair value of warrants consists of the change in the fair value of the outstanding warrants notes since the previous reporting period.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes consists primarily of income taxes related to foreign and state jurisdictions in which we conduct business. We maintain a full valuation allowance on our federal and state deferred tax assets as we have concluded that it is more likely than not that the deferred assets will not be utilized.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, $0.2 million and $0.4 million of stock-based compensation was capitalized as software costs, respectively.

In December 2022, the Company enacted a restructuring cost savings initiative which resulted in employee terminations in both December 2022 and January 2023. In association with the January 2023 terminations, the Company accelerated the vesting of a number of individual option awards, resulting in the accelerated vesting of 5,938 shares on the date of modification. Also in January 2023, the Company repriced 301,537 option awards. Both the accelerated vesting and repricing were accounted for as an equity award modifications under ASC Topic 718 which resulted in adjustment of the award value to reflect the fair value at the modification date and acceleration of the recognition schedule in the case of awards which were modified to have accelerated vesting. The adjustment resulted in additional expense of $0.5 million.

Three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023

Fitness product cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 decreased $0.4 million, or 49%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease is primarily due to an inventory valuation reserve expense in the three months ended March 31, 2023 from the purchase of inventory. There were no inventory purchases in the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Membership cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 increased $0.06 million, or 6%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase is primarily related to the acquisition of CLMBR, Inc.

Training cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 increased $0.06 million, or 60%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase is primarily related to the acquisition of CLMBR, Inc.

Our gross loss decreased by $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023 due to the decrease in the inventory valuation reserve.

Research and Development

Research and development expense decreased $1.1 million or 35% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in personnel-related expenses from a reduction in headcount of $0.4 million, and a decrease in stock-based compensation expenses of $0.9 million partially offset by an increase of $0.2 million in engineering related expenses.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expense decreased $0.3 million or 57% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in personnel-related expenses from a reduction in headcount of $0.1 million, a decrease of $0.1 million in advertising and marketing, and a decrease of $0.1 million in stock-based compensation expenses.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expense decreased $9.9 million or 62% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, respectively. The decrease was due primarily due to decreases of $10.2 million in stock-based compensation expenses, rent expenses of $0.1 million and transaction costs related to IPO in prior year of $0.8 million offset by transaction costs related to the acquisition of CLMBR, Inc. of $0.8 million and increase in insurance expenses of $0.3 million and increase in legal expenses of $0.1 million.

Gain on debt forgiveness

Gain on debt extinguishment was a result of forgiveness of debt of $2.6 million related to the third-party content provider for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Loss on debt extinguishment

Loss on debt extinguishment was a result of conversion of promissory loans and senior secured debt into convertible notes resulting in a loss of $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Change in Fair Value of Convertible Notes, and Change in Fair Value of Warrants

Change in fair value of convertible notes and warrants for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were due to change in fair value of these financial instruments. The change in fair value of convertible notes was driven by the conversion of bridge loans to Series A Preferred Stock and the change in fair value of warrants was attributable to the change in fair value of warrants issued with December 2023 Note and February 2024 Convertible Note.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our results determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, we believe the following non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating our operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA

We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net (loss) income adjusted to exclude: other expense (income), net; income tax expense (benefit); depreciation and amortization expense; stock-based compensation expense; impairment expense; reorganization, severance, exit, disposal and other costs associated with restructuring plans; vendor settlements; transaction related expenses; IPO related expenses; and other adjustment items that arise outside the ordinary course of our business.

We use Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of operating performance and the operating leverage in our business. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors for period-to-period comparisons of our business and in understanding and evaluating our operating results for the following reasons:

Adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors and securities analysts to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items such as stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expense, other expense (income), net, and provision for income taxes that can vary substantially from company to company depending upon their financing, capital structures, and the method by which assets were acquired;
Our management uses Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget, as a measure of our core operating results and the effectiveness of our business strategy, and in evaluating our financial performance; and
Adjusted EBITDA provides consistency and comparability with our past financial performance, facilitate period-to-period comparisons of our core operating results, and may also facilitate comparisons with other peer companies, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results.

 

Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider this measure in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our financial results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are, or may in the future be, as follows:

Although depreciation and amortization expense are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;
Adjusted EBITDA excludes stock-based compensation expense, which has recently been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense for our business and an important part of our compensation strategy;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect: (1) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (2) interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt, which reduces cash available to us; or (3) tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect impairment charges for fixed assets, and gains (losses) on disposals for fixed assets;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect gains associated with vendor settlements.
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect non-cash fair value gains (losses) on convertible notes, warrants and unrealized currency gains (losses).
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect IPO readiness costs and expenses that do not qualify as equity issuance costs.
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect reorganization, severance, exit, disposal and other costs associated with restructuring plans;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect expenses related to the Asset Purchase Agreement and acquisition;
The expenses and other items that we exclude in our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may differ from the expenses and other items, if any, that other companies may exclude from Adjusted EBITDA when they report their operating results and we may, in the future, exclude other significant, unusual expenses or other items from these financial measures. Because companies in our industry may calculate such measures differently than we do, their usefulness as comparative measures can be limited. Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should be considered along with other operating and financial performance measures presented in accordance with GAAP.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In accordance with Accounting Standards Update ASU No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), or ASU 205-40, management evaluated whether there are certain conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were issued.

As an emerging growth company, the Company is subject to certain inherent risks and uncertainties associated with the development of an enterprise. In this regard, since the Company’s inception, substantially all of management’s efforts have been devoted to making investments in research and development including the development of revenue generating products and services and the development of a commercial organization, all at the expense of short-term profitability.

As of the date the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were issued (the “issuance date”), management evaluated the following adverse conditions and events present at the Company in accordance with ASU 205-40:

Since its inception, the Company has incurred significant operating losses and used net cashflows in its operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company incurred a net operating loss of $9.4 million and used net cash in its operations of $2.9 million. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $178.3 million. Management expects the Company will continue to incur significant operating losses and use net cash in its operations for the foreseeable future.
As of the issuance date, the Company had approximately $0 million of cash or cash equivalents available to fund its operations and no available sources of financing or capital to sustain its operations for a period of 12 months beyond the issuance date.
The Company expects to incur substantial expenditures to invest in its operations and growth for the foreseeable future. In order to fund these investments, the Company will need to secure additional sources of credit from lenders or capital investment from public and private investors (collectively “outside capital”). While the Company is actively seeking to secure additional outside capital (and has historically been able to successfully secure such capital) to fund its operations, no additional outside capital has been secured or was deemed probable of being secured as of the issuance date. In addition, management can provide no assurance the Company will be able to secure additional outside capital or on

 

51


 

acceptable terms. Absent an ability to secure additional outside capital in the very near term, the Company will be unable to meet fund its operations over the next 12 months beyond the issuance date.
As of March 31, 2024, the Company had total outstanding debt of approximately $19.1 million, all of which was classified as current in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. Approximately $4.9 million of this debt pertains to personal loans from certain individual related parties disclosed in Note 20. Several of these loans matured prior to March 31, 2024, but their repayment has been temporarily waived, and the remaining loans are scheduled to mature over the next 12 months beyond the issuance date. However, as disclosed in Note 10, $3.0 million of loan payable with Vertical Investors, LLC was converted into 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock on April 24, 2024. Accordingly, as of the issuance date, the Company’s total outstanding debt was approximately $16.1 million, including accrued, but unpaid interest and penalties on delayed interest payments, all of which is currently due or scheduled to mature over the next 12 twelve months beyond the issuance date. While the Company is actively seeking to secure additional outside capital (and has historically been able to successfully secure such capital) to repay these outstanding borrowings, no additional outside capital has been secured or was deemed probable of being secured as of the issuance date. In addition, management can provide no assurance the Company will be able to secure additional outside capital or on acceptable terms. In the event the Company is unable to secure additional outside capital and/or secure amendments or waivers from its lenders to defer or modify the repayment terms of the Company’s outstanding indebtedness, management will be required to seek other strategic alternatives, which may include, among others, a significant curtailment of the Company’s operations, a sale of certain of the Company’s assets, a sale of the entire Company to strategic or financial investors, and/or allowing the Company to become insolvent by filing for bankruptcy protection under the provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
The Company received a deficiency letter from the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) on January 26, 2024 notifying the Company that, for the last 30 consecutive business days, the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) has been below the minimum $1.00 per share required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (“Rule 5550(a)(2)”). The Nasdaq deficiency letter has no immediate effect on the listing of the Common Stock, and the Common Stock will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “TRNR” at this time. The Company has 180 calendar days, or until July 24, 2024, to regain compliance. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s securities must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days. If compliance is not regained by July 24, 2024, the Company may be eligible for additional time to regain compliance or if otherwise not eligible, the Company may request a hearing before a hearings panel. In the Company fails regain compliance and/or secure an extension, the Company will be subject to being delisted from the Nasdaq market. If a delisting occurs, the Company will be faced with a number of material adverse consequences, including limited availability of market quotations for its common stock; limited news and analyst coverage; decreased ability to obtain additional financing or failure to comply with the covenants required by the Company’s borrowing arrangement; limited liquidity for the Company’s stockholders due to thin trading; and a potential loss of confidence by investors, employees and other third parties who do business with the Company.

These uncertainties raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue to operate as a going concern, which contemplates that the Company will be able to realize assets and settle liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Debt and Preferred Equity

 

November 2022 Convertible Notes

In November 2022, we issued convertible notes (the “November 2022 Convertible Notes”) with an aggregate principal amount of $4.4 million, pursuant to a private placement offering. The November 2022 Convertible Notes bore interest at 6% per annum and had a scheduled maturing date of 12 months from issuance, at which time the principal and accrued interest would be due and payable. The Company elected the fair value option for the November 2022 Convertible Notes under ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, with changes in fair value recorded in earnings each reporting period.

 

The November 2022 Convertible Notes did not include any financial covenants and are subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of specified events of default. The November 2022 Convertible Notes were subject to the following conversion features:

In the event the Company completed a qualified financing, which is defined as the sale of preferred stock for gross proceeds of at least $10.0 million prior to the maturity date of the related notes, all principal and accrued interest will automatically convert into preferred stock.

 

52


 

In the event the Company did not complete a qualified financing prior to the maturity date of the related notes, at the election of the note holder, all principal and accrued interest can be converted into common stock.

 

The conversion price with respect to an automatic conversion upon the occurrence of a qualified financing is equal to the lesser of i) the price per share in the Next Financing round, or ii) the Original Issue Price of the Company’s Series A-2 Preferred Stock, which is $47.67. The conversion price with respect to an elective conversion at the time of maturity is equal to the Cap Price.

 

The Company recognized losses equal to $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 related to changes in fair value for the November 2022 Convertible Notes.

In May 2023, upon closing of the Company's IPO, the November 2022 Convertible notes were converted into an aggregate of 565,144 shares of common stock.

In addition, the Note Investor may, at any time and at its option, convert the Note (in whole or in part) into shares of Common Stock pursuant to the formula included in the preceding sentence at an alternate conversion price equal to 92% of the lowest dollar volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) during the ten trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion, subject to a conversion price floor, or, any time following an Event of Default (as defined below), equal to 80% of the lowest VWAP during the ten trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion, in each case subject to the additional terms and conditions set forth in the Note.

The Note sets forth certain standard events of default (each such event, an “Event of Default”), upon the occurrence of which the Company is required to deliver written notice to the Note Investor within one business day (an “Event of Default Notice”). At any time after the earlier of (a) the Note Investor’s receipt of an Event of Default Notice, and (b) the Note Investor becoming aware of an Event of Default, the Note Investor may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Note. Upon an Event of Default, the Note shall bear interest at a rate of 14.0% per annum.

In connection with the Company’s issuance of its December 2023 Note, the Company bifurcated the embedded conversion option and redemption rights and recorded embedded conversion option and redemption rights as a short term derivative liability in the Company’s balance sheet in accordance with FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The convertible debt and the derivative liability associated with the December 2023 Notes is presented on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as the convertible debt

Commitments

In May 2021, we entered into two agreements with a third-party content provider (“Content Provider”), a service agreement and a collaboration agreement. Per the service agreement, Forme is to provide content creation services for the Content Provider in which we are to produce workout content using the Content Provider’s trainers and studios. Under the collaboration agreement, both we and the Content Provider agree to jointly market their partnership; in addition, the collaboration agreement provides us with a license to use the Content Provider’s content and marks on our Studio fitness ecosystem (i.e., the “License”). The license issued to us allows us to reproduce, modify, prepare derivative works based upon, distribute, publicly display, publicly perform the content and the modified content, to market, advertise or promote Forme, perform specified activities, and provide our customers access to and use of the Content Provider’s content, throughout the world on our Studio products and in any media, so long as such other media is associated or related to the use of our Studio products.

A liability for total minimum commitment (the license fee) on a quarterly basis was recognized as a liability of $2.3 million as of December 31, 2022. In March 2023, both agreements with the Content Provider were terminated by mutual agreement and no payments remain due or payable thereunder and the liability was recognized as a gain on settlement for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In accordance with ASC 718, when a nonrecourse note is used to fund the exercise of a stock option, the stock option is not considered “exercised” for accounting purposes until the employee repays the loan. Prior to repayment of a nonrecourse loan, the outstanding shares received in exchange for the loan are excluded from the denominator of basic earnings per share. Additionally, the nonrecourse loan itself is not recorded on the Company’s balance sheet since the arrangement is, in substance, a stock option.

In 2022 and 2021, the sale of the shares of common stock to several employees was completed in the form of issuances of Secured Partial Recourse Promissory Notes (the “Note(s)”) by the respective employee to the Company.

The Notes were in the aggregate amount of $154,875 for 94,908 and shares as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The Notes are secured by a pledge of collateral, representing the shares of stock sold. Interest is charged at the mid-term Applicable Federal Rate as of the date of the Note and compounded annually. Per the terms of the Notes, 51% of the initial amounts of the outstanding principal balances plus any accrued and unpaid interest, represent a full recourse note, and 49% of the initial amounts represent a

 

57


 

nonrecourse note. The Company analyzed the terms of the Notes and concluded that the recourse portion of the notes are nonrecourse in nature as the Company does not have intention to seek repayment beyond the shares issued despite the recourse legal terms, and thus will be treated the same as the nonrecourse portion of the Notes. All Notes are outstanding as of March 31,2024, and are not recorded on the balance sheet.

In November 2022, the Company issued a warrant to an unrelated third party in consideration for the Company’s hiring of certain employees from the third party that is exercisable for a number of shares of common stock that is determined by dividing $225,000 by (x) the price per share of the next equity financing with total proceeds of at least $10.0 million or (y) the initial public offering price per share of a future initial public offering, whichever event occurs first, for an exercise price of $0.0001 per share, in whole or in part. The warrant may also be net exercised upon election. The warrant vests associated with the services of certain employees and as such contains a substantive future requisite service condition. In May 2023, upon closing of the Company's IPO, the warrants were exercised and converted into an aggregate of 28,124 shares of common stock.

In March 2023, we issued warrants to unrelated third-party service providers in consideration for certain marketing communications services, which warrants are exercisable for a total number of shares of our common stock that is determined by dividing $400,000 by (x) the price per share of our next bona fide equity financing with total proceeds of at least $10,000,000 or (y) the initial public offering price per share in our initial public offering, whichever event occurs first, for an exercise price of $0.0001 per share, in whole or in part. The warrants may also be net exercised upon election. The warrant vests associated with the services of certain employees and as such contains a substantive future requisite service condition. In May 2023, upon closing of the Company's IPO, the warrants were exercised and converted into an aggregate of 49,996 shares of common stock.

In March 2023, we issued warrants to certain existing non-affiliate stockholders in lieu of future cash interest payments under our senior secured notes issued to such stockholders in connection with the Bridge Note Financing. Such warrants are exercisable for a number of shares of our common stock that is determined by dividing: (A) (i) in the case of the warrants issued to the lead noteholder, 67% of the aggregate principal amount of notes issued to such lead noteholder and; (ii) in the case of all other noteholders in the Bridge Note Financing, 60% of the aggregate principal amount of notes issued to such other noteholders by (B) (i) the initial public offering price per share or (ii) if the initial public offering is not consummated, by either (x) the price per share offered in a change of control transaction or (y) if a change of control transaction does not occur, the fair market value of our common stock as determined by an independent appraiser. The warrants may also be net exercised upon election. The warrant vests associated with the services of certain employees and as such contains a substantive future requisite service condition. In May 2023, upon closing of the Company's IPO, the warrants were exercised and converted into an aggregate of 163,121 shares of common stock.

 

On November 10, 2023, the Company issued warrants to two accredited investors to purchase shares of common stock of the Company, which warrants expire five years from the date of issuance (each, a “Warrant” and collectively, the “Warrants”).

Interest on the outstanding principal of the notes accrues initially at a rate of 3% per annum, with a step-up interest rate of 8% per annum after January 31, 2024 until maturity. The Warrants are not exercisable until May 2024, after which they will become exercisable for such number of shares of common stock equal to the then-outstanding principal amount under the promissory note divided by the Warrant Stock Fair Market Value (as defined in the Warrant) at the Warrant Price (as defined in the Warrant), subject to adjustment as set forth in the Warrant.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements, we make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, stockholders’ equity/deficit, revenue, expenses, and related disclosures. We re-evaluate our estimates on an on-going basis. Our estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the uncertainty inherent in these matters, actual results may differ from these estimates and could differ based upon other assumptions or conditions. The critical accounting policies that reflect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements include those noted below.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Subsequent changes in fair value of these financial assets and liabilities are recognized in earnings when they occur. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities which are required to be recorded at fair value, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which we would transact and the market-based risk measurement or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and credit risk.

We apply the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

Level 1 inputs are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 inputs are based on observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets), or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 inputs are based on unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities, and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

 

Our material financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, convertible notes, and warrants. The carrying amounts of current financial instruments, which include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, contingent consideration, approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Internal-use Software

The Company capitalizes certain eligible software development costs incurred in connection with its internal use software in accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal-use Software and ASC 985, Software. These capitalized costs also relate to the Company’s Studio software that is accessed by its customers on a membership basis as well as certain costs associated with its information systems. Capitalized software costs are amortized over the estimated useful life is three years. Capitalization begins once the application development stage begins, management has authorized and committed to funding the project, it is probable the project will be completed, and the software will be used to perform the function intended. Internal and external costs, if direct and incremental, are capitalized until the software is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. The Company expenses all costs incurred that relate to planning and post-implementation phases of development. Intangible assets are assessed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate the existence of a possible impairment, and none were identified in the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

 

 

59


 

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and year ended December 31, 2023, the Company capitalized $0.0 million and $0.4 million, respectively, under ASC 350 included in intangible assets.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and year ended December 31, 2023, the Company capitalized $0.5 million and $1.9 million, respectively, under ASC 985 included in other assets.

Amortization is computed on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives:

 

Internal-use Software

3 years

 

Capitalized Studio Content

Capitalized Studio content costs include certain expenditures to develop video and live content for our customers. We capitalize production costs for recorded content in accordance with ASC 926-20, Entertainment-Films – Other Assets – Film Costs. We recognize capitalized content, net of accumulated amortization, within other non-current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and recognizes the related amortization expense as a component of cost of revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss). Costs which qualify for capitalization include production costs, development costs, direct costs, labor costs, and production overhead. Expenditures for capitalized content are included within operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Based on certain factors, including historical and estimated user viewing patterns, we amortize individual titles within the Studio content library on a straight-line basis over a three-year useful life. We review factors impacting the amortization of the capitalized Studio content on an ongoing basis. Estimates related to these factors require considerable management judgment.

We considered certain factors in determining the useful life of the content, including expected periods over which the content will be made available through the platform and related viewership, the lack of “obsolescence” of such content over such period given the nature of our videos (i.e., exercise classes which are not significantly impacted by changes in markets or customer preferences, and/or for which the content is expected to significantly change or evolve over time), and the expected significant growth of our member base which will contribute to substantial increases in viewership over time given the recent launch of our product and membership offerings. Based on these factors, we have determined that a three-year (3-year) amortization period is reasonable for the content. We will continue to review factors impacting the amortization of the capitalized content on an ongoing basis.

Our business model is membership based as opposed to generating revenues at a specific title level. Therefore, all content assets are monetized as part of a single asset group. The content is assessed at the group level when an event or change in circumstances indicates a change in the expected usefulness of the content or that fair value may be less than unamortized cost. Unamortized costs are assessed for impairment regardless of whether the produced content is completed. To date, we have recognized one impairment with regards to the carrying value of our content portfolio. If circumstances in the future suggest that an impairment may exist, these aggregated content assets will be stated at the lower of unamortized cost or fair value. In addition, unamortized costs for assets that have been, or are expected to be, abandoned are written off. The unamortized cost of content is approximately $1.8 million and $2.4 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Convertible Notes

As permitted under ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, the Company has elected the fair value option to account for its November 2022 convertible notes. In accordance with ASC Topic 825, we record these convertible notes at fair value with changes in fair value recorded as a component of other expense, net in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss). As a result of applying the fair value option, direct costs and fees related to the convertible notes were expensed as incurred and were not deferred. We concluded that it was appropriate to apply the fair value option as they are liabilities that are not, in whole or in part, classified as a component of members’ deficit. In addition, the convertible notes meet other applicable criteria for electing fair value option under ASC Topic 825.

In May 2023, upon closing of the Company's IPO, the convertible notes were converted into an aggregate of 565,144 shares of common stock.

In connection with the Company’s issuance of the December 2023 Notes, the Company bifurcated the embedded conversion option and redemption rights and recorded embedded conversion option and redemption rights as a short term derivative liability in the Company’s balance sheet in accordance with FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The convertible debt and the derivative liability associated with the December 2023 Notes is presented on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as convertible note payable and the embedded derivatives. The convertible debt is carried at amortized cost. The derivative liability will be remeasured at each reporting period using the lattice model with changes in fair value recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations in other expense (income). See Note 10 for further details.

The Company issued Convertible Notes in February 2024 (the “February 2024 Notes”). The convertible debt is presented in on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as convertible note payable. The convertible debt is carried at amortized cost. See Note 10 for further details.

Revenue Recognition

Our primary source of revenue is from sales of our Connected Fitness Products and related accessories and associated recurring membership revenue.

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;
Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
Determination of the transaction price;
Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

 

Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Our revenue is reported net of sales returns, discounts, incentives, and rebates to commercial distributors as a reduction of the transaction price. We estimate our liability for product returns and concessions based on historical trends by product category, impact of seasonality, and an evaluation of current economic and market conditions and records the expected customer refund liability as a reduction to revenue, and the expected inventory right of recovery as a reduction of cost of revenue. If actual return costs differ from previous estimates, the amount of the liability and corresponding revenue are adjusted in the period in which such costs occur.

 

We apply the practical expedient as per ASC 606-10-50-14 and does not disclose information related to remaining performance obligations due to their original expected terms being one year or less.

 

We expense sales commissions on our connected fitness products when incurred because the amortization period would have been less than one year. These costs are recorded in Sales and marketing in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss).

Stock-Based Compensation

In December 2020, our board of directors adopted the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) and in April 2023, our board of directors adopted the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2023 Plan”). Following the completion of our initial public offering, no additional awards and no additional shares of our common stock remained available for future issuance under the 2020 Plan. However, the 2020 Plan continues to govern the terms and conditions of the outstanding awards previously granted thereunder. Stock-based awards are measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and are recognized as expense, net of actual forfeitures, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award. We estimate the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The determination of the grant date fair value of stock awards issued is affected by a number of variables, including the fair value of our common stock, the expected common stock price volatility over the expected life of the awards, the expected term of the stock option, risk-free interest rates, and the expected dividend yield of our common stock. We derive our volatility from the average historical stock volatilities of several peer public companies over a period equivalent to the expected term of the awards. We estimate the expected term based on the simplified method for employee stock options considered to be “plain vanilla” options, as our historical share option exercise experience does not provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the expected term. The risk-free interest rate is based on the United States Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Expected dividend yield is 0.0% as we have not paid and does not currently anticipate paying dividends on our common stock.

Stock-based compensation expense is classified in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations in the same manner in which the award recipient’s payroll costs are classified or in which the award recipient's service payments are classified. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized an additional stock- based compensation expense of $0.5 million as a result of a modification related to accelerated option vesting and repricing of options. There were no modifications during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Income Taxes

We utilize the asset and liability method for computing our income tax provision. Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the expected future consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities as well as operating loss, capital loss, and tax credit carryforwards, using enacted tax rates. Management makes estimates, assumptions, and judgments to determine our provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. We assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent we believe that recovery is not likely, we establish a valuation allowance.

We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement. Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, which to date have not been material, are recognized within provision for income taxes.

Common Stock Valuations

Historically, for all periods prior to our IPO, as there was no public market for our common stock prior to such date, the estimated fair value of our common stock has been determined by our board of directors, with input from management, as of the date of each award grant, considering our most recently available independent third- party valuations of common stock and any additional objective and subjective factors that we believed were relevant and which may have changed from the date of the most recent valuation through the date of each award grant. The independent third-party valuations were performed in accordance with the guidance outlined in the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Accounting and Valuation Guide, Valuation of Privately- Held-Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation. We determined that based on our stage of development and other relevant factors, it was most appropriate to prepare our common stock valuations using the option-pricing method, or OPM, which used a market approach to estimate our enterprise value. The OPM treats common stock and preferred stock as call options on the total equity value of a company, with exercise prices based on the value thresholds at which the allocation among the various holders of a company’s securities changes. Under this method, the common stock has value only if the funds available for distribution to stockholders exceeded the value of the preferred stock liquidation preferences at the time of the liquidity event, such as a strategic sale or a merger. A discount for lack of marketability of the common stock is then applied to arrive at an indication of value for the common stock.

The assumptions underlying these valuations were highly complex and subjective and represented management’s best estimates, which involved inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. As a result, if we had used significantly different assumptions or estimates, the fair value of our common stock and our stock-based compensation expense could be materially different.

Given the absence of a public trading market, our board of directors, with input from management, considered numerous objective and subjective factors to determine the fair value of common stock. The factors included, but were not limited to:

contemporaneous valuations performed by an independent third-party valuation firm;

 

62


 

our stage of development and material risks related to our business;
the progress of our research and development programs, including the development of Studio Lift;
sales of our preferred stock;
the rights, preferences and privileges of our preferred stock relative to those of our common stock;
lack of marketability of our common and preferred stock as a private company;
our operating results and financial performance;
the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event, such as an initial public offering or sale of our company, in light of prevailing market conditions;
the trends, developments and conditions in the fitness sectors;
analysis of initial public offerings and the market performance and stock price volatility of similar public companies in the health and fitness sectors; and
the economy in general.

 

As a public market for our common stock has been established in connection with the completion of our IPO, it is no longer necessary for our board of directors to estimate the fair value of our common stock in connection with our accounting for granted stock options and other such awards we may grant, as the fair value of our common stock is based on the quoted market price of our common stock.

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets with Indefinite Lives

Goodwill consists of the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations. The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles —Goodwill and Other”, which requires an annual impairment test for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. The Company may first choose to perform a qualitative evaluation of the likelihood of goodwill and intangible assets impairment. For the goodwill that was the result of current year acquisitions, the Company chose to perform a qualitative evaluation. If the Company determined a quantitative evaluation was necessary, the goodwill at the reporting unit was subject to a two-step impairment test. The first step compares the book value of a reporting unit, including goodwill, with its fair value. If the book value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the Company completes the second step in order to determine the amount of goodwill impairment loss that should be recorded. In the second step, the Company determines an implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit to all of the assets and liabilities other than goodwill. For the periods presented, the Company did not recognize any goodwill impairment as the estimated fair value of its reporting units with goodwill exceeded the book value of these reporting units. For additional information refer to Note 6—Goodwill and Intangible Assets.

The Company estimates the fair value of intangible assets based on an income approach using the relief-from-royalty method. This methodology assumes that, in lieu of ownership, a third party would be willing to pay a royalty in order to exploit the related benefits of these types of assets. This approach is dependent on a number of factors, including estimates of future growth and trends, royalty rates for this category of intellectual property, discount rates and other variables. The Company bases its fair value estimates on assumptions it believes to be reasonable, but which are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Actual future results may differ from those estimates. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the estimated fair value of the intangible asset is less than the carrying value. For the periods presented, the Company did not recognize any impairment of intangible assets with indefinite lives as the estimated fair value of its intangible assets with indefinite lives exceeded the book value of these reporting units.

Business Combinations

The Company accounts for business combinations under the provisions of ASC 805, Business Combinations, which requires that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all business combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. ASC 805 also specifies criteria that intangible assets acquired in a business combination must be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combinations and are expensed as incurred. If the business combination provides for contingent consideration, the Company records the contingent consideration at fair value at the acquisition date with changes in the fair value recorded through earnings.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report for recently adopted accounting pronouncements and recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted as of the dates of the statement of financial position included in this report.

Emerging Growth Company and Smaller Reporting Company Status

Under Section 107(b) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards would apply to private companies. We have elected this exemption to delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. Where allowable we have early adopted certain standards as described in Note 2 of our condensed financial statements included elsewhere in this report. As a result, our condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates. We will continue to remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest of the following: (i) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the completion of our initial public offering; (ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenue is equal to or more than $1.235 billion; (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in nonconvertible debt during the previous three years; or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer under the rules of the SEC. We are also a “smaller reporting company,” meaning that the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700.0 million and our annual revenue is less than $100.0 million during the most recently completed fiscal year. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company if either (i) the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250.0 million or (ii) our annual revenue is less than $100.0 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700.0 million. If we are a smaller reporting company at the time we cease to be an emerging growth company, we may continue to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are available to smaller reporting companies. Specifically, as a smaller reporting company we may choose to present only the two most recent fiscal years of audited financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and, similar to emerging growth companies, smaller reporting companies have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation.

The FORME Hardware Platform leverages our digital resistance technology and library of hundreds of Video On-Demand (“VOD” or “On-Demand”) classes to facilitate engaging workout experiences in both commercial and at-home settings. The commercial grade connected fitness hardware products are a marriage of design and technology, combining high level aesthetic quality with robust strength training equipment. For commercial clients, the expertly engineered hardware lends to durability, holding up to a high volume of use. Confidence in the equipment, matched with the design style, leads to greater results and engagement for their residents, members, and employees.

The cost of membership for class access is included with the commercial purchase.

 

71


 

At-home purchases require a monthly $49 membership. Members are able to search the classes by filtering based on length, difficulty level, type, equipment used, and instructor. Core to VOD content, FORME provides both individual classes and multi-week programs spanning a range of modalities, including strength training, yoga, pilates, mobility, barre and recovery, among others. The multi-week programs offer not only guidance on movements but also progression in challenge. Having goal oriented programming options, sets the FORME product apart from others who focus more on singular workout experiences. By offering a wide variety of workouts, the FORME hardware platform supports a range of user goals and needs, enabling the products to appeal to a broad user base and provide a fitness solution to consumers who may be underserved by traditional free weight options and selectorized machines. Members are able to cancel the membership at any time, after which they could no longer have access to our VOD content or our performance training services.

Digital Services Platform

In addition to the connected hardware products, FORME has developed a proprietary digital services platform through which consumers can access expert performance coaching in different formats, including live and asynchronous as well as 30 and 60 minute durations, which enables our commercial or at-home members to customize their training plans according to their unique needs.

FORME’s digital services platform delivers a consistent, high quality user experience for both the member and coach. Live sessions with performance coaches include value added features like on-screen biometrics, adjustable field of vision for the trainer, and UI elements to provide context as well as motivation to the member during the session. Training packages start at $399 per month for 4 one hour sessions each month. The live 1:1 training program employs a client-centered coaching approach, ensuring the client’s goals and needs are central to the program. The full program includes unlimited asynchronous programming and VOD assignments, supporting the member even when the trainer is not with them. As the program progresses, members are routinely reassessed to track progress toward goals and inform the next phases of the training plan. Additional add-on services are available for nutrition coaching, sleep coaching, and behavior based lifestyle coaching. Currently, the majority of live 1:1 training activity on the platform takes place with at-home customers; however, we see a compelling opportunity for this offering in the commercial market as we provide solutions

The flexibility of positioning of the lift arms all the equipment to fit any body type or physical need. An opportunity to maximize space, multipurpose rooms that currently sit unused can find new life as an all-in-one training area by adding a FORME Studio or Studio Lift. Existing resident gyms can offer an elevated experience by adding a lift or studio. Beyond access to VOD classes, residents and employees will be able to engage with personal trainers through live 1:1 sessions or custom built workouts, both of which can be taken with them via the FORME Studio App. In the case where in-house trainers are currently employed, the FORME hardware and digital platforms can extend their reach with a wider range of service types, hours available, and member engagement.

Existing personal trainers within boutique fitness locations and performance centers can use the FORME hardware and digital platforms can extend their reach with a wider range of service types (virtual 1:1, custom programming), hours of availability, and member engagement in and out of the studio. Additionally, owners can extend their impact on member’s lives through the Studio App, creating studio-wide custom workouts, recommending VOD classes, and scheduling live 1:1 sessions for new members that can be taken at home or when traveling.

Residential: The perfect marriage of aesthetics and function, the FORME hardware fits seamlessly into homes. A space efficient all-in-one performance option, home owners can add a training space without compromising their living space. By adding a FORME Studio Lift or Studio, they receive all the performance and strength benefits of a full gym in the privacy of their home. Adding access to a variety of class types and FORME personal trainers, home owners can have the group fitness and personalized training experience normally reserved for brick and mortar gym spaces. Beyond the hardware, the FORME digital platform allows the in-home benefits to be taken when traveling or outside of the house.

What Sets Us Apart

Connected fitness hardware products with services to address a large and growing market

Our product offering is a combination of premium connected hardware products and performance training services, which we believe significantly differentiates us in our industry. We currently offer three coaching offerings, Video On Demand, through both CLMBR and FORME, and Custom Training and Live 1:1 personal training through FORME. We offer these three coaching services at different price points to enable accessibility and provide choice to our members. We believe the addition of premium connected hardware products, including the FORME Studio (fitness mirror) and the FORME Studio Lift (fitness mirror with digital weight system), and CLMBR (vertical climbing machine), can drive increased customer lifetime values. Our service can also be accessed through our mobile apps, which are available through iOS and Android mobile devices and most iOS and Android tablets, which increases the opportunity for consumer engagement and flexibility. We have designed our product portfolio to be modular and customizable so that our product and service offerings can be tailored to a broad range of fitness goals, budgets, and needs, thereby accessing a larger addressable market. We also view the fact that we in-source development and management of our trainers and the hardware and software through which they reach our members, as a key differentiator that allows us to deliver a high quality and consistent integrated experience across our offerings.

Focus on high value commercial channel enables efficient customer acquisition

Our products are designed for both at-home and commercial use cases. Over the past 12 months, we have allocated a majority of our resources to sales and marketing efforts focused on commercial environments, including multifamily developments, hotels, country clubs, senior living communities and recreation centers. We believe focusing on commercial channels enables us to take advantage of an attractive and more capital light route to market and to acquire customers more efficiently. We leverage third-party distributors to sell our product into commercial channels, and pay variable commissions on units sold. We believe this translates to a better return on capital than the traditional direct to consumer model that requires heavy paid advertising, much of which is invested in advance of unit sales, and thus is less certain from a return perspective. We are able to sell into commercial environments and deliver a high quality

use experience there, as our hardware is designed to withstand high levels of usage in commercial environments - a key differentiator relative to other connected fitness products. In addition to commercial grade hardware, we have developed a comprehensive enterprise software experience to support unique needs of our commercial clients, which we believe is another important differentiator relative to other connected hardware competitors.

Our equipment offers versatility and broader applicability to underserved demographics

The US population struggles to meet targets set by the CDC for both strength and cardiovascular training. For example, 69% of US adults failed to meet the goal of strength training twice a week and 53.1% failed to meet the cardiovascular training guidelines. A total of 46.3% met neither goal.

We believe that in order to address this dynamic, underserved demographic groups need access to new training options that are versatile enough to meet the needs of a broad user base. Our connected hardware platforms, the FORME Studio, Studio Lift, and CLMBR, are applicable to a wide range of user types and are particularly appealing to individuals within the largest segments of the population, baby boomers and gen X, where the benefits of exercise are the greatest. Given this demand, it is increasingly important for commercial environments, such as multifamily residential, hotels, and office space, to have inclusive training options that these individuals feel comfortable using.

The FORME Studio and Studio Lift offer a wide range of VOD content that can support the most novice to seasoned user. Additionally, with the access to live 1:1 coaching, users in these categories can receive an extremely customized and guided experience. The studio lift, being a cable based resistance platform, has arms that are adjustable to 28 unique positions, ensuring every body type and need is addressed during use. Beyond appealing to a wide range of the population for general strength training needs, the Studio Lift is tailor made for very specialized use cases, such as golf fitness, tennis fitness, and rehabilitative services.

The CLMBR is a commercial grade vertical climber suited for every body and any space, delivering one of the safest and most effective full-body cardiovascular workouts. It provides a low impact workout experience while still supporting high intensity output. This novel form of cardiovascular training ensures everyone, regardless of age and ability, can safely and effectively meet their training needs. With adjustable handle settings, users can ensure proper positioning regardless of height and body type.

Having strength and cardiovascular training offerings that provide for increased versatility relative to traditional formats in the market enables commercial environments to appeal to a broader audience. This leads to increased engagement and retention and long term use of the space.

Premium hardware enables immersive training experiences

Our premium connected hardware products were designed in-house. The FORME Studio and FORME Studio Lift have a 43-inch 4K display, which we believe is currently the largest and highest definition reflective screen in the connected fitness equipment industry, a built-in microphone, and two 12 MP cameras with body detection and tracking technology to enable high quality, two-way video communication between client and trainer and to maximize the field of vision for our trainers such that they can see their clients throughout the live coaching session. The FORME Studio Lift provides digital resistance up to 100 pounds per arm and is able to auto-adjust resistance based on the user’s profile and can be adjusted remotely by the trainer during a live session.

The CLMBR is unlike any other vertical climber that has come before it, in both form, function, and technology. It is the first and only vertical climber with an open central “laddar” design, which has been patented by CLMBR. As a result of the design, it is the first and only vertical climber that positions the display at a comfortable view distance. It is the first and only CLMBR to offer a large-format (21”) landscape screen. It is the first and only vertical climber to offer interchangeable screens. It was also the first vertical to ever offer “connected fitness” technology with interactive app ecosystem and on-demand content and still leads the segment by a considerable margin.

Services offer compelling unit economics

By adding services on top of our connected fitness hardware products, we aim to achieve attractive unit economics relative to others in the smart home gym and commercial connected fitness industry. For example, at a 20%-30% member penetration rate, our performance coaching service offerings increase our average revenue per device by three times relative to VOD content-only membership, and increase gross profit per device by nearly two times. In the commercial sector, access to additional services create an opportunity for increased engagement and penetration of existing and new residents and guests. We believe our service offerings also reduces our reliance on driving volume through brand awareness and product sales, and positions us to achieve attractive levels of annual recurring revenue and profitability.

Engaging VOD content from leading instructors

Our VOD content spans several modalities, including strength, recovery, yoga, pilate, barre, mindfulness and meditation, and other specialty fitness categories. We produce our VOD content both through our highly skilled in-house team and by contracting seasoned content production and creative professionals. Our VOD content features what we believe to be a top fitness instructor talent. Our member services team curates workout programming from our VOD content library for our members, which provides an enhanced experience, an added sense of accountability, and tailored instruction on how to reach their goals.

Additionally, our systems allow us to collect anonymized performance data to understand how our members are engaging with the platform in order to optimize our content development around fitness disciplines, class type, length, music, and other factors. This creates an opportunity to serve our members the content that most directly interests them leading to higher engagement. In the commercial markets, we can create customized content to the specific location as well as meet the unique needs of their residents, guests and employees. The ability to work directly with commercial partners to create and funnel the content that is most impactful for their users, differentiates the FORME platform from others in the industry.

Highly qualified instructors and trainers who continue to advance their skills and expertise through continuing education

We strive to hire highly experienced trainers in the industry to deliver our services. In 2022, we hired approximately 4% of the 1,500 total applicants that we received to be a trainer on our platform. When recruiting our trainers, we seek to ensure that they have a nationally accredited personal training certification (“CPT”) through industry leading organizations, such as NSCA (National Strength and Conditioning Association), ACSM (The American College of Sports Medicine), ACE (American Council on Exercise), NCSF (National Council on Strength and Fitness), and NASM (National Academy of Sports Medicine). In addition to CPT, as of March 31, 2024, we have 32 trainers on board with additional coaching certifications including Precision Nutrition (PN) certifications for nutritional coaching. Once onboard, our trainers go through a proprietary eight-week training curriculum, taught by our team of seasoned fitness industry professionals, prior to being matched with our members. After onboarding and to help retain top talent as our member base grows, we provide our trainers with ongoing education to ensure continued skill advancement in their careers.

Access to multiple, cost-effective customer acquisition channels

We believe our business model positions us to access multiple, cost-effective customer acquisition channels, which in turn presents a compelling value proposition. Our customer acquisition strategy is based on the belief that our technology can be employed to digitize health coaching in other markets. While direct-to-consumer and business-to-business channels can provide the quickest path to initial growth, we have also invested early in developing channels that we believe may yield more cost-effective customer acquisition rates in the future. For example, we anticipate initiating strategic relationships in sport sectors, and expect to continue our expansion into the corporate wellness sector, which we believe can enable us to scale efficiently and reach new target audiences.

Seasoned leadership team of fitness industry professionals

We have assembled a seasoned leadership team that has experience building industry-leading connected fitness and coaching products. Members of our team have extensive expertise in the connected fitness and general health and wellness industries, including previous tenures at highly recognized names in the industry, such as Equinox and Peloton. Our founding team believes deeply that access to high quality on demand content and performance coaching services is key to long lasting fitness outcomes. We believe we have assembled talent with deep experience in both technology and personal training to bring the most advanced virtual health coaching platform to the market.

Our Industry and Opportunity

Industry

We participate in the large and steady growing health and wellness industry. According to the 2021 Global Wellness Institute, total global spending in the wellness industry in 2020 was $4.4 trillion, of which approximately $740 billion was spent on fitness and other categories of wellness, including yoga, barre, and Pilates. Additionally, according to the International Health, Racquet & Sportsclub Association (“IHRSA”), the U.S. gym and health club industry had a total of approximately 64 million gym memberships and generated $35 billion of revenue in 2019, representing compound annual growth rates (CAGR) of 4% and 6%, respectively, since 1997, which we believe signals consistent underlying growth in demand for fitness offerings.

 

79


 

Our current product portfolio, which consists of our FORME Studio, FORME Studio Lift, CLMBR vertical climbing machines and performance coaching services, including our VOD membership, and Live 1:1 personal training, addresses a large consumer base. Leveraging data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and IHRSA, we estimate that within the U.S. market, approximately 32 million people participate in strength training and over 8 million people participate in personal training services in a given year. Based on information from Fortune Business Insights, we estimate that over $5 billion of fitness equipment was purchased in the United States for in-home use in 2021. For a discussion of the methodology used in estimating participation rates, see “Market, Industry, and Other Data.”

Opportunity

We view our market opportunity in terms of a TAM, which we believe is the market we can reach over the long-term in our current markets with our current and future product and service offerings.

According to our research, we believe our TAM includes nearly 10 million households in the United States. Our TAM consists of households in our current market, the United States, that earn an annual income of $100,000 or greater and have one or more fitness participants in the home. We define a “fitness participant” as someone who engages in some form of fitness training at least once per week.

Compelling Industry and Market Trends

The fitness industry has seen steady growth driven by increased participation in health and wellness activities.

We believe changing generational attitudes towards fitness and increased awareness of the connection between exercise and positive health outcomes are contributing to increased participation, as illustrated below. According to IHRSA, health club industry revenue in the United States grew by approximately 6% annually from 1997 through 2019 (prior to the COVID-19 pandemic), and has demonstrated resilience during times of economic recession, as illustrated below. Since 2019 and reflecting the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, closures of gyms and health clubs significantly impacted the brick and mortar fitness industry, driving a 57% decrease in overall health club industry revenue from $35 billion in 2019 to $15 billion in 2020, according to IHRSA. Based on data compiled by Piper Sandler, we believe health club revenue has recovered to $28 billion in 2021 as gyms reopened, despite the challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, which we believe indicates the underlying interest in participation in health and wellness remains strong. To this end, industry revenues are expected to reach $35.5B in 2024, reflecting recovery above pre-pandemic levels.

Our products address large and attractive segments within the fitness industry

According to IHRSA’s 2023 U.S. Health & Fitness Consumer Report the two largest segments of the fitness industry in terms of participation rates are strength training and cardiovascular training. Both segments benefit from high levels of awareness amongst the general population and support a growing focus on overall health and well-being as a means of improving longevity - a trend that has accelerated as a result of Covid-19. Within these segments, the FORME and CLMBR products provide a compelling offering, through the combination of hardware and digital services, that is engaging, effective and easy to employ in both a commercial and in-home

setting. The FORME and CLMBR hardware is designed to appeal to a broad range of broad user types and experience levels, including demographic segments that are currently underserved by legacy equipment.

While there is broad awareness of the benefits of strength training and cardio, the U.S. population as a whole struggles to meet physical activity targets and maintain a consistent, long term exercise routine. This necessitates a solution that reduces friction and increases participation. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, participation in strength training on average is larger than all of cardio equipment combined. Despite high overall participation rates relative to other forms of exercise, strength training under-indexes with two key demographics – women and adults over 55 – where participation rates are 30% and 19%, respectively. We believe there is a significant opportunity to increase participation among these groups by offering more compelling, efficient and customized strength and cardiovascular training equipment options for home and commercial use, particularly when paired with expert coaching and instruction.

img15127884_12.jpg

Similarly, cardiovascular training ranks among the highest utilization by gym goers, as reported by IHRSA, at 62.9% indicating they use cardio training equipment. The cardiovascular training category has expanded beyond the brick and mortar gym space with the inclusion of connected fitness for in-home and commercial use. In 2022, cardiovascular training equipment made up 55.25% of the US fitness equipment market as reported by Fortune Business Insights. The cardio equipment category, both in-home and commercial, includes treadmills, stationary bikes, vertical climbers, ellipticals, and steppers.

While the benefits of cardiovascular training are well understood, fitness consumers are often discouraged from continued participation due to injury, required time commitment and/or physical limitations. To this end, one of the most common forms of cardiovascular training, running, has been shown to have anywhere from a 19.4% to a 79.8% incidence of injury as found in a meta analysis in the British Journal of Sports Medicine. CLMBR provides a low impact, highly effective means of supporting cardiovascular health as it offers the user the ability to train at both high and low intensities without significant stress being placed on the body. The unique benefits of vertical climbing - efficient cardio workout, full body strength, cross crawl patterning, and joint friendly movement - put CLMBR and the vertical climbing modality at an advantage relative to other modalities in category, like stair steppers and ellipticals, that primarily target one element of fitness or can create inefficient movements.

The need for health coaching has grown beyond fitness

Traditional offerings in the fitness industry are often “self-serve” in that individuals utilize equipment and gym memberships but often without the guidance of expert health coaching, contributing to low satisfaction and high attrition. According to IHRSA, nearly 50% of new gym members quit within six months of joining a club. Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic has driven consumers to focus more on their overall well-being, and turn to physical exercise as a way to improve mental health and increase longevity. We believe health coaching is the most effective way to drive consistency, engagement, and positive outcomes among consumers and is well-aligned to expanding consumer wellness preferences and goals. We deliver coaching services through FORME’s live training offering and CLMBR’s group fitness and other live instructor led modalities.

Premium offerings attract majority of revenue in the fitness industry

We believe the premium end of the market is the most attractive sector to target with our products and health coaching services, as evidenced by data on consumer behavior and spending habits. For example, in the United States, according to IHRSA, fitness participation tends to be highly correlated with household income, suggesting that increased disposable income is associated with increased time and money spent on fitness, which we believe makes the premium end of the market the most compelling for our products and health coaching services. Further, this dynamic is also reflected in the distribution of consumer spend seen in the gym memberships. According to IHRSA, premium gyms, which are defined as those costing approximately $100 or more per month in membership fees, account for 32% of total gym memberships and generate 73% of overall gym revenue, indicating that most of the spend in the industry is at the premium end.

Wellness services are gaining share and coaching services are just starting to digitize

In fitness, nearly 70% of spending has historically been weighted toward products rather than services, according to McKinsey. However, wellness services and apps are gaining ground. According to McKinsey, in 2022, approximately 45% of consumers intend to spend more on wellness services or app-based wellness services over the next year, while approximately 25% intend to spend more on fitness products.

Health coaching and wellness services often result in optimal fitness outcomes because coaches offer expert guidance, accountability, and motivation. According to the 2023 State of the Wellness Industry report, 78% of consumers say wellness is more important than ever and 64% say wellness is more important than other leisure expenses. We believe that these services have historically been inaccessible to many due to cost and lack of convenience. Digitization can lower the cost of personal training and health coaching, primarily due to lower distribution costs relative to gyms. Further, digitization can increase peak capacity and utilization for service providers, and increase convenience for clients.

Demand for omnichannel fitness options

Household trends, work from home, and the rise of mobile technology make it challenging to balance time between family, work, and personal health and wellness, resulting in increasing demand for convenient omnichannel fitness options. The Les Mills Global Fitness Report found 59% of fitness enthusiasts preferred a 60/40 split of live to digital fitness options. No longer wanting to be tethered to a single location, fitness consumers are looking to engage in wellness activities when and where they want, including at home, at work or when traveling. Digitization increases convenience of fitness options for consumers, removing friction and enabling them to increase flexibility to workout when they have the time to do so. This shift is reflected in the growth of wellness real estate, one of the fastest growing sectors in the wellness economy according to the Global Wellness Institute. Between 2020 and 2022, there was a 26% annual growth rate. This shows in purchase decisions of commercial property owners, who are increasingly dedicating space and resources to providing fitness options to their members, tenants and guests. This trend is also seen in the preference of personal trainers and performance coaches who are increasingly becoming attracted to digital platforms, like FORME’s, as well. Digital platforms reduce the time spent on traveling to clients, while value-added tech tools increase efficiency and effectiveness. According

to the Personal Trainer Development Center, nearly 83% of trainers plan to offer virtual services compared to 40% of trainers prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Growth strategies

Acquire complementary businesses that generate attractive synergies

We acquired CLMBR in February 2024 and believe that there are other compelling business to be acquired. We expect that we will be able to acquire revenue-generating businesses, which would generate higher earnings and cashflow through synergies with our existing business. Our team has significant experience in M&A and we are one of the few companies in our industry with a public currency, which we believe makes us an attractive acquiror.

Leverage well established equipment distributors to scale in commercial channels

We have high value partnerships with distributors, including Woodway, to sell CLMBR and FORME products into a variety of commercial environments. These relationships allow us to leverage the sales knowledge, relationships and specialization of third parties to accelerate our sales initiatives. Importantly, this construct allows us to make the vast majority of our sales related expenses variable, as we typically pay commissions only when units are sold.

Expand into new geographies

We intend to expand the international reach of our product and service offerings. With more than 180 million people belonging to gyms globally in 2019, according to IHRSA, we believe there is significant opportunity to grow internationally. For example, we are currently evaluating potential international expansion with the United Kingdom and Canada, although we have not yet made any definitive plans regarding such expansion or the potential timing thereof. We plan to pursue disciplined international expansion by targeting countries with high fitness penetration and spend, as well as the presence of boutique fitness, and where we believe FORME’s value proposition will resonate.

 

Increase uptake of add-on services through compelling member experience

We intend to increase uptake of our add-on memberships and services by providing a compelling member experience focused on introducing our members to the variety of services available on our platform and specifically, the value-added benefits of our coaching and personal training offering. We believe our ability to provide service offerings at a number of price points will serve as a valuable lever for growth by increasing overall service revenues over time.

Reduce the cost of personal training and expand addressable market without sacrificing quality

We are exploring ways to leverage our products, technology, and proprietary trainer education platform to bring the cost of coaching down incrementally, while maintaining an unwavering focus on the quality of the coaching experience we deliver to our members. This strategy is key to our medium- to long-term objectives, as we believe we can expand the addressable market for coaching services by reducing the per session cost and increasing accessibility of expert coaching services through our hardware and mobile experiences.

Build out partnership ecosystem

We plan to continue to build our strategic partner ecosystem with a focus on relationships that enable us to extend our platform to new audiences. We are pursuing opportunities in a number of attractive verticals, including sports, physical therapy and rehabilitation, and telemedicine. We are continuously identifying and evaluating opportunities to apply our coaching know-how in new and innovative ways to expand our reach and impact.

Expand corporate wellness

We intend to continue expanding our recently launched corporate wellness initiative. Historically, corporate wellness programs were generally one-size-fits-all solutions for employees, such as corporate gyms. The rise of the hybrid workforce has made robust corporate wellness both an imperative and a challenge for many companies. We believe our comprehensive product portfolio makes us a better fit for modern corporate wellness programs than many existing alternatives. Our solution enables corporations to provide

 

83


 

all of their employees with a coaching service regardless of whether they work from home, in the office, or both. Our multi-pronged service offering also provides a new level of customization that can be adapted to employees at virtually all levels of tenure.

Target Sport Specific Markets

We intend to reach sport specific markets, specifically golf, tennis and pickleball, which have historically been underserved by the fitness market. Golf is one of the fastest growing sports in the United States. According to the National Golf Foundation, golf participation grew 10% year-over-year surpassing 41.1 million in 2022. In 2023, on-course golfers rose for the fifth consecutive year. Similarly for tennis, according to data from the USTA and the Tennis Industry Association Participation and Engagement Study, in 2022 there were 23.6 million players, a 33% increase since the beginning of 2020. Pickleball has solidified its status as America's fastest-growing sport for the third consecutive year. According to the 2023 Sports & Fitness Industry Association's (SFIA) Topline Participation Report, participation in pickleball almost doubled in 2022, showing an 85.7 percent increase year-over-year and a staggering 158.6 percent increase over the past three years. Each of these sports, as well as others, benefit greatly from high quality strength and conditioning as well as the style of training that can be provided by both a cable based system and vertical climbing. Providing greater access to quality training to support place is a high value service in both commercial and direct to consumer markets.

 

Our Compelling Value Proposition

For Members

Engaging On-Demand Content - Both in-home and commercial members benefit from having access to the highest quality on-demand content that offers a wide range of options. FORME and CLMBR offer VOD and pre-built workout content that covers a variety of workout types as well as lengths, difficulty levels, and points of focus. The increased accessibility of the FORME and CLBMR platforms ensures everyone, regardless of experience, goal or interests, is able to find an option that fits their needs. Versatile fitness offerings are essential for commercial environments that service a broad base of users.

High-quality trainers – Members in both commercial and in-home settings have flexible access to a quality of trainer typically reserved for brick and mortar settings. Through the FORME digital platform, users can book live sessions with expert trainers without geographic or temporal limitations, making scheduling easier and more accessible. Our trainer recruitment engine was built by seasoned industry veterans from well-known personal training brands employing a very selective hiring criteria, including screening for abilities to connect virtually with members. We utilize a rigorous methodology to match members with trainers who are the best fit for their goals, needs, and preferences. Care with matching ensures a sticky relationship is built and more frequent training schedules are set. Trainers follow a client-centered coaching model, tracking all data and experiences to the stated goal of the member. Once part of FORME, our trainers are taken through in-house continuing education to further elevate their skills and abilities in delivering a high quality service.

More affordable – We believe, based on industry data, that the pricing of our virtual coaching offerings are on average less expensive than a monthly gym membership or the monthly cost of in-person personal training. The average monthly cost of in-person personal training rates at premium gyms is estimated to be $400 per month, according to Lessons.com. Our Custom Training offering provides a full month of customized workouts created by a real personal trainer, and is currently priced at a fraction of the price of personal training. Our monthly VOD membership is currently $49 per month and is less expensive than most monthly gym memberships and monthly spend at boutique fitness classes, according to IHRSA.

We offer qualified customers in the United States 12-, 18-, and 36-month, 0% APR financing programs through Affirm, our third-party financing partner. Our financing programs have successfully broadened our base of members by attracting consumers from a wider spectrum of ages and income levels. In 2023, approximately 7% of all FORME Studio or FORME Studio Lift units sold were financed.

More convenient – Our coaching offering can be accessed through multiple platforms (hardware and mobile) and devices so customers can remain consistent with workouts at home or on the go. Our VOD content, and Custom Training offering, can be accessed at any time, providing members the flexibility to fit workouts into their lifestyle and schedules.

Commercial Clients

Commercial grade equipment - The FORME and CLMBR hardware are engineered to be commercial grade, withstanding a high level of use. Providing users with a durable fitness option is important for confidence in the fitness environment and continued engagement. Additionally, resistance to wear ensures the aesthetics of each equipment option remains at the highest level.

Versatile Application - Both FORME and CLBMR are designed to meet the needs of a broad user base. The hardware of each is adaptable to different body types and sizes, ensuring the user can create the setting that best meets their needs. Through the digital offering, commercial clients can leverage VOD content to support both novice and expert users as well as create welcoming experiences to reduce intimidation through the 1:1 support and member services. Additionally, target specific communities, like golf and tennis, with tailor made content and instruction.

Customizable experience - Tailor VOD content and workout types to the individual commercial environment based on the needs of the user as well as engagement preferences. Offer different engagement types through the use of VOD, 1:1, asynchronous programming. In settings that do not currently offer performance coaching, expand service offering to create new revenue streams through the use of live 1:1 trainers and asynchronous programming designed by expert fitness professionals.

Highest level of service - Offer truly bespoke fitness options through the 1:1 platform where members and users received the greatest level of care and coaching. Provide all the value of a virtual platform with the benefits of live services detached from the limitations of a traditional, brick and mortar setting.

Trainers and Performance Coaches

More convenient – Our platform provides trainers the opportunity to work from home and eliminate time spent on the road traveling to gyms and clients’ homes. Virtual training also eliminates the inefficiency of “dead times” during the afternoons, when trainers typically do not have clients. Our ability to match trainers across time zones means that coaches can choose to work only in the mornings or in the evenings.

Higher earning potential – Our platform has created new opportunities for trainers to increase their earning potential, driven by increased capacity to take on clients during peak hours. The time saved from commuting can instead be spent with more clients. Additionally, trainers have the ability to expand their service offerings through the FORME platform by offering asynchronous training programs, charging to write training plans that members can do on their own. We believe many trainers also earn more per session with FORME than they typically would in the gym. According to ISSA, on average, gyms take a 40-70% margin on each session, while FORME’s platform is approximately 30% margin for training.

Continuing education – Trainers and instructors on both the FORME and CLMBR platforms have the opportunity to continue their development through our proprietary education program. Upon joining, trainers must complete a mandatory eight-week program focused on honing their virtual training skillset. After onboarding, trainers and instructors are encouraged to participate in continuing education facilitated by our training team in order to advance their skills on our platform, which in turn can increase the fees charged for their training services.

Strategic Relationships

A key component of our strategy is to establish and expand strategic partnerships within the fitness and wellness industry to help accelerate expansion of our business and build our brand recognition. To date, we focused on building strategic relationships in the fitness space, primarily through content collaborations. One relationship that is particularly high value, is our distribution relationship with Woodway USA. They are currently the exclusive commercial distributor of CLMBR and also sell the FORME products to their commercial partners around the world.

We have developed, and intend to continue to develop and expand, collaborations with companies across the hospitality, fashion, sports, and design industries. Our current and potential partners include international hotel chains, celebrity trainers, interior designers, celebrity stylists and boutique fitness clubs. These strategic relationships tend to be focused on generating awareness of our brand by accessing audiences and followings and educating them regarding our products and services.

Product Design and Technology Development

We view our product design and technology as a competitive advantage and devote substantial resources to the design, research and development of new products and features to complement and improve upon our platform. We believe that our future success depends on our ability to both improve our existing products and to develop new products for both existing and new markets. We invest substantial resources in research and development to enhance our platform, develop new products and features, and improve our platform infrastructure. We believe our content delivery and interactive software platform are critical to our member experience. We plan to continue to commit significant resources to technology and product design, innovation, and development.

Our product design, engineering, and research and development organization consists of strong engineering, product, and design teams which collaborate across software, firmware, hardware, quality assurance, program management, product design and product management. Our teams are comprised of individuals with a diverse set of skills and industry experience, including expertise in complex mechanical and electrical/firmware design (with motor systems), scalable distributed systems, video and audio machine learning, artificial intelligence, and user-centric application engineering. Our engineering, product, and design teams work together to bring our products to fruition, from conception and validation to implementation. We improve our existing products through frequent software updates, which are downloaded automatically approximately every month, to deploy new and innovative interactive features. We generally provide a 12-month limited warranty for the FORME Studio and FORME Studio Lift. See “Risk Factors – Risks Related to Our Business and Industry – We may be subject to warranty claims that could result in significant direct or indirect costs, or we could experience greater returns than expected, either of which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.” We are committed to leveraging data to continuously improve our member experience by studying and understanding points of interaction and how our members use our software features. As of March 31, 2024, we had 14 employees across our engineering functions, including 1 employee in our product design and product management functions. Our engineering and product teams are located in the United States.

Video streaming and storage are provided by third-party cloud providers. By leveraging these third parties, we are able to focus our resources on enhancing our products and developing new software features. In addition, our technology platform is designed with redundancy and high utilization capacity in order to minimize member service disruption.

Sales and Marketing and Member Support

Our goal is to increase brand awareness and purchase intent for our products and services as a means of driving purchases of our products. We have historically marketed our products through various paid channels including Facebook and Google, as well as through unpaid channels driven by referrals and public relations initiatives. We use a combination of brand and product-specific performance marketing to build brand awareness and generate sales of our products and services. Our marketing strategies have focused on product education and broadening our demographic reach. Our target demographic segments include members making greater than $100,000 in annual household income.

Recently we have been leveraging relationships with third party distributors as a means of generating sales to commercial clients. These relationships allow us to leverage our partners relationships and expertise through a variable, commission-based cost structure.

In support of our direct to consumer business, we have historically promoted our products and brand through various means, including digital marketing and online advertising, press releases, contributed articles, speaking opportunities, trade events, customer events, public relations, and industry analyst relations. We believe video has been the most effective medium to communicate the features of our offering. We market through advertisements on social media to reach our target audience, focusing on incremental return on investment. This model allows us to conduct frequent tests in our sales channels, including testing our brand creative and messages, allowing us to further optimize marketing spend. We also selectively test alternative marketing channels, such as podcasts, connected TV, and direct mailing.

Multi-Channel Sales Model

We sell our products to customers through a multi-channel sales platform that includes e-commerce, inside sales and third party distribution relationships.

E-Commerce and Inside Sales: Our desktop- and mobile-compatible website provides an elevated brand experience where visitors can learn about our products and services and access product reviews. Our inside sales team engages with customers by phone, email, and online chat on our websites, and offers one-on-one sales consultations seven days a week.

Commercial: We believe that the commercial and corporate wellness channels are important to our ability to scale unit sales and drive hands-on product experiences and brand awareness amongst large and relevant audiences. We believe our products provide unique value to property owners and their patrons in wide variety of settings and that by providing access to our platform commercial settings we are able to keep our members engaged will at home (eg, multifamily housing), during travel (eg, hospitality) or at work (eg, corporate office), creating further member engagement, loyalty, and convenience. Additionally, placements in the commercial channel provide us with a valuable opportunity to facilitate physical, on-product experiences outside of a store or showroom, which can be an high value source of lead generation for at-home customers.

Member Support Services

Our member support team encompasses our member support and engagement staff and our field operations team. Our member support and engagement staff identifies, evaluates, and implements new ways to promote engagement with our members and to help members reengage with our platform when activity has lapsed, such as monitoring member activity and reaching out via email in the absence of recent activity generally within the preceding three months. The member support and engagement staff also assists members from initial onboarding through the entirety of the membership experience, including answering general questions, assisting members with matching and changing personal trainers depending on a member’s preferences, addressing other member questions and concerns regarding their fitness goals and experience, and curating weekly personalized fitness programs free of charge to suit each member’s fitness level, needs, preferences, and goals. We also utilize additional third-party support services in areas such as web chat messaging and customer relationship management tools, and intend to increasingly do so as we grow in order to efficiently scale.

Our field operations team provides support regarding sales, scheduling, delivery, installation, account and billing inquiries, troubleshooting and repair, product education, returns and exchanges, and other member requests. This team primarily works remotely and is distributed across the United States. Our Fitness Concierge team is currently comprised of personnel with training and expertise in hospitality and membership experience, and with our connected fitness hardware products.

Manufacturing

We outsource the manufacturing of our products to multiple manufacturing partners located primarily in Taiwan and mainland China. We believe this outsourced manufacturing approach allows us to focus our resources on the design, development, quality and reliability management, marketing, and sales of our products. In addition, we believe that outsourcing our manufacturing activities provides us with the flexibility needed to respond to new market opportunities, simplifies our operations, reduces risk, and significantly reduces our capital commitments. The components and parts used in our products are sourced either directly by us or on our behalf by our manufacturing partners from a variety of component suppliers. We have strict qualification processes to qualify new suppliers, components, and parts. We have a supply chain team which coordinates the relationships between our manufacturing partners and component suppliers. This team is responsible for cost, quality, and efficiency in the manufacturing processes and for ensuring that timely delivery is made. We regularly audit our existing manufacturing partners, and component suppliers, and evaluate new partners and suppliers, to help ensure that we can scale our manufacturing base as we grow our business.

We do not have long-term supply agreements with most of our third-party manufacturing partners, and we purchase from our primary manufacturers on a purchase order basis. Our product purchase orders outline the delivery terms of our agreement with these manufacturing partners. Our manufacturing partners must follow our product design specifications, quality assurance programs, and manufacturing standards. We have developed preferred relationships with our partners to maintain access to the resources needed to scale seasonally and ensure our manufacturing partners have the requisite experience to produce our products and accessories. We pay for and own certain equipment specifically required to manufacture our products. We have purchase commitments based on our purchase orders for certain amounts of goods, work-in-progress and components.

We depend on these third parties to supply us with products of a requested quantity in a timely manner that meets our standards for cost and manufacturing quality. If our current third-party manufacturing partners cannot perform as agreed, we may be required to replace those manufacturers. We may be unable to establish any agreements with third-party manufacturing partners or to do so on acceptable terms, in particular with respect to the manufacture and supply of our equipment. Although we believe that there are potential alternative suppliers, we may incur added costs and delays in identifying and qualifying any such replacement. In order to mitigate against the risks related to a single source of supply, we qualify alternative suppliers and manufacturers when possible, and develop contingency plans for responding to disruptions, including maintaining adequate inventory of any single source components and products. To date, we have not experienced material delays in obtaining any of our components or products.

 

87


 

We subject our third-party manufacturing partners to our standard qualification requirements to meet our quality and reliability standards. Our Taiwan-based team supports quality control activities in conjunction with each of our manufacturers’ on-site teams. To help ensure consistent quality, we routinely perform product audits on non-core suppliers and staff full-time supplier quality engineers at core product manufacturing sites. We believe our ability to work closely with our third-party partners to optimize the manufacturing and production processes for our products provides us with a meaningful competitive advantage.

In addition to a stringent list of qualification tests that take place prior to releasing our designs to manufacturing, Manufacturing quality testing takes place in two stages: first, before the product leaves Taiwan, and second, at our warehouse facility in the United States, prior to installation at the customer’s location. For example, we conduct in process quality checks at various stages of production and “end of line” final tests which serve as quality controls at the end of the manufacturing line in Taiwan or China and must be completed before the product can be shipped to us in the United States. Once we receive the product, we again inspect units and validate the product again before installation at the user’s home, giving us a secondary degree of quality assurance before a user engages with the product. We provide various physical and user interface safety features to guide users on how to interact with the product safely and obtain all necessary product qualifications.

The technology embedded in our platform incorporates various components, including semiconductors, which are developed from silicon wafers, the most important raw material used in our products. As a result, our manufacturing processes are subject to risks and trends within the semiconductor industry generally, including wafer foundry manufacturing capacity, wafer prices, and production yields, as well as timely wafer delivery from foundries to our manufacturing partners and regulatory and geopolitical developments in various jurisdictions. If the cost of raw materials increases, or our manufacturing partners experience difficulties in obtaining sufficient components of sufficient quality for incorporation in our products, it could impact our ability to deliver products to our customers in a timely manner and adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations, including our gross margins. For example, future global pandemics similar to the COVID-19 pandemic, may cause manufacturing and supply constraints that affect our products and increased tensions between the United States and its trading partners, particularly China, may negatively impact the supply of certain components incorporated in our products. See “Risk Factors – Risks Related to Suppliers, Manufacturers, and Other Ecosystem Partners.”

Logistics and Fulfillment

We have established a nationwide network of logistics and operations centers, leveraging third-party providers to support our internal logistics resources. We currently work with third-party logistics providers to handle warehousing, shipment and delivery, including middle-mile (warehouse to major city hub) and last mile (major city hub to member’s home) delivery of our connected fitness hardware products, including the FORME Studio and FORME Studio Lift. Our third-party logistics partners also provide white glove installation services of our products. Our in-house logistics and field support teams are responsible for training our third-party logistics providers on how to safely and correctly install our products, coordinating shipment and delivery matters, and communicating with our members throughout the entire pre-installation process. Our in-house team is also equipped to perform installations in all of our markets as needed. Our in-house logistics and field support teams offer product education, assistance with account set up, and tips and recommendations for product care. We currently expect to continue to outsource our shipment, delivery, and installation services. We do not have any minimum or long-term binding commitments with our third-party logistics providers and are generally billed upon shipment of the freight. We believe alternative third-party logistics services would be available if needed. As we grow our logistics network, we believe we will be able to efficiently service products and deploy and install replacement parts for our members.

We intend to increase our logistics and field support coverage in locations we identify as cost-effective delivery markets throughout the United States and, in the future, in new international regions. To further scale our distribution system and maintain flexibility, we intend to expand our relationships with third-party providers that deliver our products from multiple locations in the United States. Third-party fulfillment partnerships allow us to reduce order fulfillment time, reduce shipping costs, and expand our geographical reach.

Intellectual Property

Our success depends in part upon our ability to obtain and maintain patent and other intellectual property protection with respect to our products and the technology we develop. We rely on a combination of patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, confidentiality procedures, and contractual commitments, to protect our intellectual property and proprietary know-how.

 

88


 

Patents

As of March 31, 2024, we owned (i) more than 33 issued patents and/or pending applications in the United States and (ii) more than 114 issued patents and more than 31 pending patent applications in foreign jurisdictions. The inventions covered by our patent and patent application portfolio primarily relate to various hardware and software inventions that may or may not be embodied in our current or future products. The issued United States patents are expected to expire between 2036 and 2040. We periodically review our development efforts to assess the existence and patentability of new intellectual property. We expect to continue to file patent applications in the United States and abroad covering technologies and productions considered to be important to our business. We seek to protect proprietary technology related know-how that is not covered by our patent portfolio as trade secrets through contracts and policies to the extent that we believe it to be beneficial and cost-effective.

Trademarks

As of March 31, 2024, we owned (i) five registered trademarks in the United States; (ii) five registered trademarks in various states; and (iii) two trademark grants of protection covering the United Kingdom and European Union via an International Registration. We expect to continue to file trademark applications in the United States and abroad covering trademarks considered to be important to our business.

Trade Secrets and Other Intellectual Property

In addition to patent protection, we also rely on other proprietary rights and contractual obligations, including protection of trade secrets and other proprietary information that is not patentable or that we elect not to patent (for example, where we may not believe patent protection of a specific product or technology is critical to our business strategy at the time). We rely on contractual protections with our customers, suppliers, employees, consultants, and contractors, and we implement security measures designed to protect our intellectual property, including trade secrets. For example, all employees and consultants are generally required to execute confidentiality and invention assignment agreements in connection with their employment and consulting relationships with us, except with respect to content produced pursuant to specific strategic partnerships. However, we cannot guarantee that we have entered into such agreements with every such party, and we may not have adequate remedies in case of a breach of any such agreements.

Monitoring Unauthorized Use of Intellectual Property

Monitoring unauthorized use of our intellectual property is difficult and costly. Despite our efforts to protect our intellectual property, unauthorized parties may still copy, misappropriate, or otherwise obtain and use our software, technology, or other information that we regard as our proprietary intellectual property.

In the ordinary course of our business, we may become party to disputes involving intellectual property rights. Depending on the situation, we may defend our position, seek to negotiate a license or engage in other acceptable resolution that is appropriate to our business. See “Risk Factors – Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property.”

Competition

The fitness industry, including the smart home gym and connected fitness industry, is highly competitive. We face significant competition from multiple industries and exercise verticals, including at-home fitness equipment and content, fitness clubs, in-studio fitness classes, in-person personal training, and health and wellness apps. We expect the competition in our industry to intensify in the future as new and existing competitors introduce new or enhanced products and services that compete with ours.

Our competitors may develop, or have already developed, products, features, content, services, or technologies that are similar to ours or that achieve greater acceptance, may undertake more successful product development efforts, create more compelling employment opportunities, or marketing campaigns, or may adopt more aggressive pricing policies. Our competitors may also develop or acquire, or have already developed or acquired, intellectual property rights that significantly limit or prevent our ability to compete effectively. In addition, our competitors may have significantly greater resources than us, allowing them to identify and capitalize more efficiently upon opportunities in new markets and consumer preferences and trends, quickly transition and adapt their products and services, devote greater resources to marketing and advertising, or be better positioned to withstand substantial price competition. Current and potential competitors have established or may establish financial and strategic relationships between themselves or with our existing or potential customers, manufacturing partners, or other third parties. Any of the foregoing may enable our current and future competitors to better withstand adverse economic or market conditions, such as those caused by the current COVID-19 pandemic.

 

89


 

We believe that we provide a compelling, cutting-edge and engaging service to our customers, which we believe provides us with a competitive advantage versus traditional fitness and wellness products and services, and future entrants. We believe we are competitive with other industry participants principally as a result of the following factors:

Superior and compelling product offerings: We compete with producers of fitness products and strive to ensure that our platform provides innovative and engaging features, content, technologies, and user-friendly features.
Member engagement and support: We compete for customers to subscribe to the platform and to retain them through superior member support and engagement.
Talent: We compete for talent in technology, media, fitness, design, logistics, music, marketing, finance, legal, and retail. As our platform is highly dependent on technology and software, we require a significant base of engineers to continue innovating.

In addition, other competitive factors in our industry include:

total cost;
manufacturing efficiency;
enhanced products and services;
content originality;
product quality and safety;
competitive pricing policies and practices;
product innovation;
market vision;
sales and marketing strategies;
technological advances; and
brand awareness and reputation.

We believe we compete favorably among competitors across all of these factors.

Human Capital Resources

General

As of March 31, 2024, we had 28 full-time equivalent employees located in the United States and 8 full-time equivalent employees located in Taiwan across manufacturing and supply chain functions. We consider relations with our employees to be good and have never experienced a work stoppage. None of our employees are either represented by a labor union or subject to a collective bargaining agreement. We also engage fitness instructors and fitness content production personnel on an independent contractor basis. Our utilization of independent contractors fluctuates significantly depending on several factors, including the growth of, and demand for new fitness content by, our member base. For example, from January 1, 2021 through March 31, 2022, we engaged more than 165 independent contractors to produce additional content due to increased demand for On-Demand classes.

Employee Relations

Our core philosophy is that our employees are our most important resource, dedicating their talents, time, and professional reputations to the Company. Our success has been built on attracting, motivating, and retaining a talented and driven workforce, particularly on our research and development teams, but also our senior management and support personnel. We have a diverse workforce that represents many cultures and we celebrate our diversity by fostering inclusion across our organization. Diversity is both a priority and strength of our company. Our employee base reflects diversity in backgrounds and experiences and each employee contributes different perspectives, ideas, strengths, and abilities to our business. Our training and development program focuses on a harassment-free workplace and diversity topics, as well as ethics and compliance. We consider our global employee relations to be good.

In order to motivate our team to perform to the best of their abilities and achieve both our short- and long-term objectives, we offer a combination of competitive base salary, time-based equity incentives and discretionary bonuses, which have generally been linked to

 

90


 

financial performance that are designed to motivate and reward personnel with annual grants of stock-based incentive compensation awards, some of which vest over a period of four years. We offer competitive benefits tailored to local markets and laws and that are designed to support employee health, welfare and retirement; examples of such benefits include paid time off; remote working/work from home flexibility, 401(k), basic and voluntary life, disability and supplemental insurance; medical, dental and vision insurance; and flexible spending accounts.

Our compensation structure is intended to align incentives with the success of our company as a whole. This includes our executives, whose incentives are generally the same as the rest of our employees. We believe that this fosters harmony within the Company, as all teams are working together towards the same goals. For more details regarding our executive compensation, see “Executive Compensation.”

Our ongoing focus on workplace safety and compliance to applicable regulations has enabled us to preserve business continuity while ensuring a safe work environment during the COVID-19 pandemic, including work-from-home arrangements for a substantial portion of our workforce and reduced capacity for those that have returned to the office, adhering to local health authority guidelines. We also comply with applicable laws and regulations regarding workplace safety and are subject to audits by entities such as OSHA in the United States.

We rely on third parties to manufacture our products and require our suppliers to maintain a safe work environment.

Government Regulation

General

We are subject to many varying laws and regulations, including in the United States, the United Kingdom, and the European Union, including those related to privacy, data protection, content regulation, intellectual property, consumer protection, e-commerce, marketing, advertising, messaging, rights of publicity, health and safety, employment and labor, product liability, accessibility, competition, and taxation. These laws often require companies to implement specific information security controls to protect certain types of information, such as personal data, “special categories of personal data” or health data. These laws and regulations are constantly evolving and may be interpreted, applied, created, or amended in a manner that could harm our current or future business and operations. In addition, it is possible that certain governments may seek to block or limit our products and services or otherwise impose other restrictions that may affect the accessibility or usability of any or all of our products and services for an extended period of time or indefinitely. We have implemented compliance programs and processes, including with respect to export regulation, anti-bribery and anti-corruption, privacy, and cybersecurity. To date, our compliance with these regulations has not had a material impact on our results of operations.

Export Regulation and Anti-Corruption Compliance

Our business activities are also subject to various restrictions under U.S. export control and similar laws and regulations, as well as various economic and trade sanctions administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, which prohibit or restrict the provision of products and services to embargoed jurisdictions and sanctioned persons. Further, various countries regulate the import of certain technology and have enacted or could enact laws that could limit our ability to provide customers with our products in those countries.

We are also subject to various domestic and international anti-corruption laws, such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, and the U.K. Bribery Act, as well as other similar anti-bribery and anti-kickback laws and regulations. These laws and regulations generally prohibit companies, their employees, and their intermediaries from directly or indirectly authorizing, offering, providing, and/or accepting improper payments or other benefits for improper purposes. Although we take precautions to prevent violations of these laws, our exposure for violating these laws increases as our international presence expands and as we increase sales and expand operations into new jurisdictions. New legislation or regulations, the application of laws from jurisdictions whose laws do not currently apply to our business, or the application of existing laws and regulations to the fitness industry generally could result in significant additional compliance costs and responsibilities for our business.

Privacy

We are, and could become, subject to a variety of local, state, national and international laws, directives, and regulations that apply to the collection, use, retention, protection, disclosure, transfer, and other processing of personal data in the different jurisdictions, and

 

91


 

which sometimes conflict among the various jurisdictions and countries in which we operate. As we expand our business internationally, we expect to become subject to data privacy and security laws in additional jurisdictions. Data privacy laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, the CPRA and the CCPA, as well as the GDPR and its equivalent in the United Kingdom (to which we may become subject if we expand into those jurisdictions), pose increasingly complex compliance challenges, which may increase compliance costs. Any failure to comply with data privacy laws and regulations could result in significant penalties.

The CCPA requires, among other things, that covered companies provide disclosures to California consumers and affords such consumers with certain rights, including the ability to opt out of certain sales of their personal information. The CCPA prohibits discrimination against individuals who exercise their privacy rights and provides for civil penalties for violations, as well as a private right of action in certain circumstances. Additionally, the CPRA, which became effective in most material respects starting on January 1, 2023, further expands the CCPA with additional compliance requirements that may impact our business and establishes a regulatory agency dedicated to enforcing the CCPA and CPRA. In addition, we may be subject to other new data privacy laws, such as the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act, the Colorado Privacy Act, the Connecticut Data Privacy Act and the Utah Consumer Privacy Act in the United States (all of which go into effect in 2023) as well as the European Union Regulation on Privacy and Electronic Communications (or ePrivacy Regulation). Further, in the United States, emerging state data privacy laws may encourage other states and the federal government to pass comparable legislation, introducing the possibility of greater penalties and more rigorous compliance requirements.

The GDPR regulates the collection, control, sharing, disclosure, use, and other processing of data that can directly or indirectly identify a living individual that is a resident of the European Union and imposes stringent data protection requirements with significant penalties and the risk of civil litigation, for noncompliance. Moreover, following the UK’s exit from the European Union, the GDPR was transposed into the UK GDPR. However, a risk of divergent parallel regimes (and related uncertainty) exist. We cannot predict how the GDPR, the UK GDPR, or other UK or international data protection laws or regulations may develop or impact our business if and when we become subject to such laws and regulations, nor can we predict the effects of divergent laws and related guidance.

We strive to comply with all applicable laws and regulations relating to privacy, data security, and data protection. However, governments are continuing to focus on privacy and data security, and it is possible that new privacy or data security laws will be passed, or existing laws will be amended in a way that is material to our business. Any significant change to applicable laws, regulations, or industry practices could cause us to incur substantial costs or require us to change our business practices and compliance procedures in a manner adverse to our business. Any inability to adequately address data privacy or data protection, or other information security-related concerns, even if unfounded, or to successfully negotiate privacy, data protection or information security-related contractual terms with customers, or to comply with applicable laws, regulations and policies relating to privacy, data protection and information security, could result in additional cost and liability to us, harm our reputation and brand, and could negatively impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Product Safety

We are or may become subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the United States and abroad regarding the safety of our products. These laws and regulations are continuously evolving and developing. In particular, fitness equipment sold for home use is regulated in the United States by the Consumer Product Safety Commission. Safety-related information that we learn about our products from any source may trigger federal reporting obligations that could lead to product safety investigations, corrective actions, enforcement actions, and civil or criminal penalties. To protect the health and safety of our users and mitigate these risks, we obtain relevant safety testing on our products and maintain all necessary product qualifications.

Cybersecurity

We are in the process of designing and implementing a security program consisting of policies, procedures, and technology intended to maintain the security and integrity of our information, systems and networks. Among other things, the program includes controls designed to limit access to systems, networks, and data, prevent unauthorized access or modification, and monitor for threats.

Environmental, Health, and Safety

We and our third-party manufacturers and suppliers are, and could become, subject to a wide range of international, federal, state, provincial, and local governmental regulations directed at preventing or mitigating environmental harm, as well as to the storage, discharge, handling, generation, disposal and labeling of toxic or other hazardous substances. Although we outsource our

 

92


 

manufacturing, the manufacturing of our products by our third-party manufacturers and suppliers require the use of hazardous materials that similarly subject these third parties, and therefore our business, to such environmental laws and regulations. Our failure or the failure of these third parties to comply with these laws or regulations can result in regulatory, civil, or criminal penalties, fines, and legal liabilities, suspension of production, alteration of manufacturing processes, including for our products, reputational damage, and negative impact on our operations or sales of our products and services. Increased compliance costs by our third-party manufacturing partners may also result in increased costs to our business. Our business and operations are also subject to health and safety laws and regulations adopted by government agencies such as OSHA. Although we believe we are in material compliance with applicable law concerning matters relating to health, safety, and the environment, the risk of liability relating to these matters cannot be eliminated completely. To date, we have not incurred significant expenditures relating to environmental compliance nor have we experienced any material issues relating to employee health and safety.

Facilities

Our corporate headquarters are located in Austin, Texas, where we hold a lease that has a monthly fee of $99 and variable cost based on usage. We have a small office in Taiwan that is primarily used for supply chain and manufacturing purposes and CLMBR studio in Denver, CO that is primarily used to facilitate live classes on a weekly basis.

We believe that our existing facilities are sufficient for our current needs. We intend to add new facilities and expand our existing facilities as we continue to add employees and grow our business. We believe that new spaces will be available at reasonable terms in the future in order to meet our needs.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we may become involved in additional regulatory investigations or legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently a party to any regulatory investigations or other legal proceedings the outcome of which, if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation could have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

Foreign Currency Risk

To date, all of our inventory purchases have been denominated in U.S. dollars. A portion of our operating expenses are incurred outside the United States and are denominated in foreign currencies, which are also subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. In addition, our suppliers incur many costs, including labor and supply costs, in other currencies. While we are not currently contractually obligated to pay increased costs due to changes in exchange rates, to the extent that exchange rates move unfavorably for our suppliers, they may seek to pass these additional costs on to us, which could have a material impact on our gross margins. Our operating results and cash flows are, therefore, subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. However, we believe that the exposure to foreign currency fluctuation from operating expenses is relatively small at this time as the related costs do not constitute a significant portion of our total expenses. To date, we have not entered into derivatives or hedging transactions, as our exposure to foreign currency exchange rates has historically been partially hedged as our foreign currency denominated inflows have covered our foreign currency denominated expenses. However, we may enter into derivative or hedging transactions in the future if our exposure to foreign currency should become more significant.

Inflation Risk

We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. If our costs become subject to significant inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, financial condition, and operating results.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that are designed to ensure information required to be disclosed in our reports that we file or furnish pursuant to 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 Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial officer), as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of such date, a material weaknesses is identified related to (1) the lack of a sufficient number of trained professionals with the expertise to design, implement, and execute a formal risk assessment process and formal accounting policies, procedures, and controls over accounting and financial reporting to ensure the timely and accurate recording of financial transactions while maintaining a segregation of duties; and (2) the lack of a sufficient number of trained professionals with the appropriate U.S. GAAP technical expertise to identify, evaluate, and account for complex transactions and review valuation reports prepared by external specialists.

 


Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

As of March 31, 2024, management, with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level due to the material weakness described below.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, a company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by a company’s board of directors, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or a combination of significant deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that it is reasonably possible that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

94


 

In preparing our financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, management identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. The material weaknesses we identified related to (1) the lack of a sufficient number of trained professionals with the expertise to design, implement, and execute a formal risk assessment process and formal accounting policies, procedures, and controls over accounting and financial reporting to ensure the timely and accurate recording of financial transactions while maintaining a segregation of duties; (2) certain system limitations in our accounting software and the overall control environment (3) the lack of a sufficient number of trained professionals with the appropriate U.S. GAAP technical expertise to identify, evaluate, and account for complex transactions and review valuation reports prepared by external specialists and (4) the lack of sufficient processes and precise review and procedures to ensure the proper accounting for stock based compensation expenses, and the recording of those expenses completely and accurately in the appropriate period.

We are planning on implementing measures designed to improve our internal control over financial reporting to remediate these material weaknesses, including formalizing our processes and internal control documentation and strengthening supervisory reviews by our financial management; hiring additional qualified accounting and finance personnel and engaging financial consultants to enable the implementation of internal control over financial reporting and segregating duties amongst accounting and finance personnel. In addition, we are planning on implementing an accounting software system with the design and functionality to segregate incompatible accounting duties, which we currently expect will be fully implemented in our 2024 fiscal year.

While we are implementing these measures, we cannot assure you that these efforts will remediate our material weaknesses and significant deficiencies in a timely manner, or at all, or prevent restatements of our financial statements in the future. In particular, our material weakness related to our accounting software was not fully remediated for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as we expect to implement new software in 2024. If we are unable to successfully remediate our material weaknesses, or identify any future significant deficiencies or material weaknesses, the accuracy and timing of our financial reporting may be adversely affected, we may be unable to maintain compliance with securities law requirements regarding timely filing of periodic reports, and the market price of our common stock may decline as a result.

In accordance with the provisions of the JOBS Act, we and our independent registered public accounting firm were not required to, and did not, perform an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2024, nor any period subsequent in accordance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that we have identified all, or that we will not in the future have additional, material weaknesses. Material weaknesses may still exist when we report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act after the completion of our initial public offering.

 

 

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Due to inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Part II - Other Information

For information regarding legal proceedings please refer to Note 14 - Commitments and Contingencies in Part I, Item 1, "Financial Statements" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings and subject to claims arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that the resolution of current matters will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations. Even if any particular litigation or claim is not resolved in a manner that is adverse to our interests, such litigation can have a negative impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources from our business, and other factors.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

Our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows may be impacted by a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including those set forth in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our other filings with the SEC, the occurrence of any one of which could have a material adverse effect on our actual results. There have been no material changes to the Risk Factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and our other filings with the SEC.

 

Item 5. Other Information

Our directors and officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act) may from time to time enter into plans or other arrangements for the purchase or sale of our shares that are intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5–1(c) or may represent a non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement under the Exchange Act. During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, no such plans or arrangements were adopted or terminated, including by modification.
