NEW YORK, Aug. 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ODDITY Tech Ltd. (NASDAQ: ODD) today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023.
"We delivered our strongest second quarter and year-to-date financial results ever, beating our plan on revenue and all key profit metrics, and allowing us to raise our full year outlook. We believe our year-to-date financial performance, with net revenue growth of 69% year-over-year, $50 million of net income, and $70 million of Adjusted EBITDA, reflects the power of our business model as we work to transform the global beauty and wellness market through technology and entrepreneurial DNA," said Oran Holtzman, ODDITY co-founder and CEO. "We are unlocking online for this massive, global TAM by leveraging data science, artificial intelligence, and computer vision to deliver superior products and experiences to our over 40 million users."
Holtzman continued, "We achieved key objectives during the quarter that set us up for long-term success. Our business is firing on all cylinders:
- ODDITY delivered outstanding financial results, rapidly growing our topline and driving strong profitability.
- We completed the acquisition of Revela and launched ODDITY LABS to revolutionize our industry using artificial intelligence-based molecule discovery.
- With the successful completion of our initial public offering, we recruited top-tier investors to partner with us in the next stage of our journey.
"We are pleased with our outstanding second quarter performance and the continued strength of our business in the third quarter-to-date," added Lindsay Drucker Mann, ODDITY Global CFO, "As a result of this momentum, we are raising our outlook for 2023 revenue and earnings to reflect better than expected top- and bottom-line results relative to our internal plan. We now expect full year net revenue to increase between 46-48%, compared with our prior expectation of a 40% increase. We now expect full year Adjusted EBITDA to be between $96 million and $101 million, compared with our prior expectation of $91 million."
Drucker Mann continued, "We are additionally pleased that we were able to deliver the bulk of our full year objectives in the first half alone, as we have done in previous years. We accomplished this by aggressively fueling profitable growth in the first and second quarters, which enables us to invest resources during the second half of the year on future initiatives to drive long-term growth."

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income margin, and Adjusted diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures. Please see the sections titled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and "Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures" below for more information regarding ODDITY's use of non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.
Financial Outlook:
Based on the strong second quarter results, ODDITY is raising its plan for 2023 to reflect higher revenue, profit margins, and earnings than previously expected. We plan to reinvest a portion of the revenue and profit upside generated in the second quarter back into the business during the second half of 2023 to support long-term growth.
ODDITY is providing the following guidance for the full year ending December 31, 2023:
- Net revenue between $475 million and $480 million, above our prior expectation for $453 million, and now representing year-over-year growth between 46% and 48% as compared to 40% prior.
- Gross margins of approximately 69.5%, above our prior expectation of 67.9%.
- Adjusted EBITDA between $96 million and $101 million, above our prior expectation of $91 million, and representing Adjusted EBITDA margins between 20.0% and 21.0%.
- Adjusted diluted EPS between $1.11 and $1.17, above our prior expectation of $1.06. This assumes a tax rate of approximately 25% and average fully diluted shares of approximately 59.7 million.
- Stock-based compensation expense is expected to be $26 million for the full year, including approximately $14 million of expense in the third quarter of 2023 and approximately $8 million of expense in the fourth quarter of 2023. Third quarter stock-based compensation expense will be adversely impacted by a one-time expense associated with accelerated vesting in connection with our IPO.
| Current FY2023 Outlook | Prior FY2023 Internal Plan | |
| Net Revenue | $475-480 million | $453 million |
| Gross Margin | 69.5% | 67.9% |
| Adjusted EBITDA | $96-101 million | $91 million |
| Adjusted Diluted EPS | $1.11-1.17 | $1.06 |
ODDITY is providing the following guidance for the third quarter ending September 30, 2023:
- Net revenue between $81 million and $85 million, representing year-over-year growth between 18-23%.
- Gross margin of approximately 67.5%.
- Adjusted EBITDA between $16 and $18 million, representing Adjusted EBITDA margin of between 20.0-21.5%.
- Adjusted diluted EPS between $0.13 and $0.15. This assumes a tax rate of approximately 43.5% and average fully diluted shares of approximately 61.7 million.
- Stock-based compensation expense is expected to be approximately $14 million in the third quarter of 2023, adversely impacted by a one-time expense associated with accelerated vesting in connection with our IPO.
| Current 3Q 2023 Outlook | |
| Net Revenue | $81-85 million |
| Gross Margin | 67.5% |
| Adjusted EBITDA | $16-18 million |
| Adjusted Diluted EPS | $0.13-0.15 |
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income margin, and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measures. Please see the sections titled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and "Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures" below for more information regarding ODDITY's use of non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. ODDITY has not provided a quantitative reconciliation of its Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted diluted EPS outlook to the corresponding net income and diluted EPS GAAP measures, because the quantification of certain items included in the calculation of GAAP net income and GAAP diluted EPS cannot be calculated or predicted at this time without unreasonable efforts. However, for the third quarter and full year 2023, ODDITY expects stock-based compensation expense as set forth above. ODDITY is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable reconciling items, which could have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on its future GAAP financial results.
Actual results may differ materially from ODDITY's financial outlook as a result of, among other things, the factors described under "Forward-Looking Statements" below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
In addition to the GAAP financial measures set forth in this press release, ODDITY has included non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income margin, and Adjusted diluted EPS. ODDITY believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to management and investors to help evaluate ODDITY's business, measure its performance, identify trends, prepare financial projections and make business decisions.
ODDITY defines "Adjusted EBITDA" as net income before financial expenses (income), net, taxes on income, and depreciation and amortization as further adjusted to exclude share-based compensation expense and non-recurring adjustments. "Adjusted EBITDA margin" is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue. ODDITY believes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are useful for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. By excluding certain items that may not be indicative of its recurring core operating results, ODDITY believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are widely used by investors and securities analysts to measure a company's operating performance without regard to items such as depreciation and amortization, interest expense, and interest income, which can vary substantially from company to company depending on their financing and capital structures and the method by which their assets were acquired.
ODDITY defines "Adjusted net income" as net income adjusted for the impact of share-based compensation, non-recurring adjustments and the tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments and "Adjusted net income margin" as Adjusted net income divided by net revenue. In addition, ODDITY defines "Adjusted diluted earnings per share" as Adjusted net income divided by weighted average number of fully diluted shares outstanding. ODDITY believes the presentations of Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income margin and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are useful because they are frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. Further, ODDITY believes these measures are helpful in highlighting trends in our operating results because they exclude the impact of items that are outside the control of management or not reflective of our ongoing operations and performance.
ODDITY's non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or in isolation from, its financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Other companies, including companies in its industry, may calculate these measures differently or not at all, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures.
Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included with the financial tables at the end of this release under the heading "Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures."
