MEDIFAST INC

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Medifast, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“Medifast,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) included herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim reporting and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and notes that are normally required by GAAP have been condensed or omitted. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal, recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations have been included and management believes the disclosures that are made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2023 has been derived from the 2023 audited consolidated financial statements at that date included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (“2023 Form 10-K”).

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, which are included in the 2023 Form 10-K.

Presentation of Financial Statements - The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein include the accounts of the Company. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

The Company is, from time to time, subject to a variety of litigation and similar proceedings that arise out of the ordinary course of its business. Based upon the Company’s experience, current information and applicable law, it does not believe that these proceedings and claims will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or liquidity. However, the results of legal actions cannot be predicted with certainty. Therefore, it is possible that the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows could be materially adversely affected in any particular period by the unfavorable resolution of one or more legal actions.

Accounting Pronouncements - Adopted in 2024

In June 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update 2022-03—Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions (“ASU 2023-03”) to (1) to clarify the guidance in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, when measuring the fair value of an equity security subject to contractual restrictions that prohibit the sale of an equity security, (2) to amend a related illustrative example, and (3) to introduce new disclosure requirements for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions that are measured at fair value in accordance with Topic 820. For public business entities, the amendments in ASU 2022-03 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company adopted the standard during the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The adoption of the standard had no material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company has not adopted any new accounting standards during the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - Pending Adoption

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09—Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”) to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures, including jurisdictional information, by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Prospective application is required, though retrospective application is permitted. Entities are permitted to early adopt the standard. The Company did not early adopt for the 2024 reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-09 on its consolidated financial statements.

2. INVENTORIES

Inventories consist principally of raw materials, non-food finished goods and packaged meal replacements, protein, and supplements held in the Company’s warehouses and outsourced distribution centers. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, utilizing the first-in, first-out method. The cost of finished goods includes the cost of raw materials, packaging supplies, direct and indirect labor and other indirect manufacturing costs. On a quarterly basis, management reviews inventories for unsalable or obsolete inventories.

Inventories consisted of the following (in thousands):

3. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) computations are calculated utilizing the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted EPS is calculated utilizing the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding adjusted for the effect of dilutive common stock equivalents.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted EPS (in thousands, except per share data):

The calculation of diluted EPS excluded 326 thousand and 45 thousand antidilutive restricted stock awards for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and 142 thousand and 22 thousand antidilutive restricted stock awards for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. EPS iscomputed independently for each of the periods presented above, and accordingly, the sum of the quarterly earnings per common share may not equal the year-to-date total computed.

4. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock Options

The Company has issued non-qualified and incentive stock options to employees and non-employee directors. The fair values of these options were estimated on the grant dates using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which required estimates of the expected term of the option, the risk-free interest rate, the expected volatility of the price of the Company’s common stock, and dividend yield. Options outstanding as of June 30, 2024 generally vested over a period of 3 years and expire 10 years from the date of grant. The exercise price of these options is $66.68. Due to the Company’s lack of option exercise history on the date of grant, the expected term was calculated using the simplified method defined as the midpoint between the vesting period and the contractual term of each option. The risk-free interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect on the date of grant that most closely corresponded to the expected term of the option. The expected volatility was based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock over the period of time equivalent to the expected term for each award. The dividend yield was computed as the annualized dividend rate at the grant date divided by the strike price of the stock option. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company didnot grant stock options.

The following table is a summary of our stock option activity (in thousands, except per share data):

As of June 30, 2024, the weighted-average remaining contractual life for both the outstanding stock options and exercisable stock options was 3.6 years with an aggregate intrinsic value of $0. There wasno unrecognized compensation on the awards for the period ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company received $36 thousand and $105 thousand in cash proceeds from the exercise of stock options, respectively. The total intrinsic value for stock options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $15 thousand and $328 thousand, respectively.

Restricted Stock

The Company has issued restricted stock to employees and non-employee directors generally with vesting terms up to 3 years after the date of grant. The fair value of the restricted stock is equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Expense for restricted stock is amortized ratably over the vesting period.

The following table summarizes our restricted stock activity (in thousands, except per share data):

The Company withheld approximately 11 thousand shares and 9 thousand shares of the Company’s common stock to cover minimum tax liability withholding obligations upon the vesting of shares of restricted stock for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The total fair value of restricted stock awards vested during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $1.3 million and $2.5 million, respectively.

Market and Performance-based Share Awards

The Company has issued market and performance-based share awards in 2022 and 2023 and performance-based share awards in 2020, 2021, and 2024 to certain key executives who were granted deferred shares and may earn between 0% and 250% of the target number depending upon both the Company’s total stockholder return (“TSR”), for those with market conditions, and the Company’s performance against predetermined performance goals over athree-year performance period after the date of grant. Market and performance-based share awards that are tied to the Company’s TSR are valued using the Monte Carlo method and are recognized ratably as expense over the award’s performance period. The fair value of the performance-based share awards is equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant adjusted by expected level of achievement over the performance period. Expense for performance-based share awards is amortized ratably over the performance period. In the event that management determines that the Company will not reach the lower threshold of the predetermined performance goals established in the grant agreement, any previously recognized expense is reversed in the period in which such a determination is made. Management determined that the market and performance-based share awards granted in March of 2022 and performance-based share awards granted in October of 2021 would not reach the lower threshold of the predetermined performance goals resulting in a $1.4 million and $0.1 million decrease in the Company’s share-based compensation expense during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024 respectively.

The Company withheld 8 thousand shares and 21 thousand shares of the Company’s common stock to cover minimum tax liability withholding obligations upon the vesting of shares of performance-based share awards for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The total fair value of performance-based share awards issued during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was$1.3 million and $5.3 million, respectively.

Share-based compensation expense for all types of awards granted is recorded in selling, general, and administrative expense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The total expense during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was as follows (in thousands):

The total expense during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was as follows (in thousands):

The total income tax benefit recognized in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for stock awards was $0.1 million and $0.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and the income tax expense of $0.4 million and income tax benefit of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

There was $10.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock awards as of June 30, 2024, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.00 years. There was $6.6 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to the 71 thousand market and performance-based shares and 118 thousand performance-based shares presented in the table above as of June 30, 2024, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.88 years.

5. LEASES

Operating Leases

The Company has operating leases for office and warehouse space and certain equipment. In certain of the Company’s lease agreements, the rental payments are adjusted periodically based on defined terms within the lease. The Company did not have any finance leases for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Our leases relating to office and warehouse space have lease terms of 65 months to 102 months. Our leases relating to equipment have lease terms of 36 months, with certain of them having automatic renewal clauses.

The Company’s warehouse agreements also contain non-lease components, in the form of payments towards variable logistics services and labor charges, which the Company is obligated to pay based on the services consumed by it. Such amounts are not included in the measurement of the lease liability but are recognized as expenses when they are incurred.

The operating lease expense was $1.2 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $2.5 million and $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

7. INVESTMENTS

Certain financial assets and liabilities are accounted for at fair value, which is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The following fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an on-going basis.

Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies.

Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value from the perspective of a market participant.

The following tables present the Company’s cash and financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis for each of the hierarchy levels (in thousands):

The Company had $65 thousand and $0 realized gains for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The Company had$74 thousand and $0 realized gains for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company entered into an agreement with LifeMD, Inc (Nasdaq: LFMD), a leading provider of virtual primary care, to purchase shares of common stock of LifeMD for $10 million. The securities are subject to a registration rights agreement which stipulates that the registration of the securities is to be made as soon as practicable, but not later than 90 days, following written demand by the Company. Written demand was made, and the securities registration remained in process as of June 30, 2024. The registration process was completed, effective July 18, 2024. In addition, the shares were subject to a 180-day lock-up period from the closing date of the agreement, December 11, 2023, which expired as of June 8, 2024. The fair value of the investment is recorded within the investment securities of the consolidated balance sheet. The losses related to the Company’s LifeMD investment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are summarized in the table below (in thousands):

The Company concurrently entered into an agreement in which LifeMD would provide services to stand-up the collaboration between LifeMD and the Company. The agreement stipulated an initial milestone payment of $5 million due upon execution of the agreement for these services. The services under the initial milestone were completed prior to December 31, 2023, and this amount was included in the Company’s selling, general, and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of income for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. The Company made a second milestone payment under the agreement of $2.5 million on March 18, 2024. Of the total $2.5 million second milestone payment, $1.3 million was recognized within selling, general, and administrative expenses for services performed by LifeMD for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, with the remaining $1.2 million recognized in the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The final milestone payment of $2.5 million was made on June 5, 2024.

8. DEBT

Credit Agreement

On April 13, 2021, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantors”) entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Company, the Guarantors, the lenders party thereto and Citibank, N.A., in its capacity as administrative agent. On May 31, 2022, the Credit Agreement was amended to increase the borrowing capacity and convert the interest rate to be based on Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), from London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) (the “Amended Credit Agreement”). The Amended Credit Agreement provides for a$225.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility with a$20.0 million letter of credit sublimit. The Amended Credit Agreement also provides for an uncommitted incremental facility that permits the Company, subject to certain conditions, to increase the senior secured revolving credit facility by up to$100.0 million. The Amended Credit Agreement matures on April 13, 2026.

The Company’s obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Guarantors. The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors are secured by first-priority liens on substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Guarantors, subject to certain exceptions.

Under the Amended Credit Agreement, the Company will pay to the administrative agent for the account of each revolving lender a commitment fee on a quarterly basis based on amounts committed but unused under the revolving facility from 0.20% to 0.40% per annum depending on the Company’s Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement). The Company is also obligated to pay the administrative agent customary fees for credit facilities of this size and type.

Revolving borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) the Term SOFR Rate for the interest period plus the Applicable Rate (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) based on the Company’s Total Net Leverage Ratio or (ii) the Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) as in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Rate based on the Company’s Total Net Leverage Ratio. As of June 30, 2024, the Applicable Rate for Term SOFR Loans is 1.25% per annum and the Applicable Rate for ABR Loans is 0.25% per annum. SOFR based loans also include a Credit Spread Adjustment based on the duration of the borrowing.

The Amended Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants customarily applicable to senior secured credit facilities, including covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries, subject to negotiated exceptions, to incur additional indebtedness and additional liens on their assets, engage in mergers or acquisitions or dispose of assets, pay dividends or make other distributions, voluntarily prepay other indebtedness, enter into transactions with affiliated persons, make investments and change the nature of their businesses. The Amended Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, subject to thresholds and grace periods, including, among others, payment default, covenant default, cross default to other material indebtedness and judgment default. In addition, the Amended Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a Total Net Leverage Ratio of no more than 2.75 to 1.00 and an Interest Coverage Ratio of at least 3.50 to 1.00.

The Company hadno borrowings outstanding under the Amended Credit Agreement, inclusive of the credit facility and letter of credit sublimit, as of June 30, 2024 and was in compliance with all covenants.

9. SUPPLY CHAIN OPTIMIZATION

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company completed a supply chain optimization initiative with the goal of aligning the Company’s distribution footprint with current demand levels. On June 28, 2024, the Company closed its Maryland Distribution Center located in Ridgely, Maryland. The Company is currently assessing options for the disposition of the land and building, but the associated asset group that includes the land and building is not impaired. The assets within the facility are being actively marketed for sale and were written down to fair value less cost to sell, with the impact reflected below as the loss of impairment of equipment held for sale. The Company identified certain other supply chain assets at other locations within its distribution network that will no longer be utilized and are no longer useful to the Company’s operations, and adjusted their respective useful lives accordingly, with the impact reflected below in the accelerated depreciation charges.

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the components of the Company’s supply chain optimization charges were as follows:

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the supply chain optimization charges were recorded in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as follows:
