Forward Guidance
The company's Q3 outlook includes expectations for Paid Connected Fitness Subscriptions, Paid App Subscriptions, Total Gross Margin, and Adjusted EBITDA. The full year guidance reflects hardware sales trends, Bike rental program growth, and Tread+ revenue, tempered by uncertainties in subscriber growth and the macroeconomic outlook.
Positive Outlook
- Expects a similar Paid Connected Fitness Churn rate similar to Q2.
- Expects a sequential improvement in gross additions due to seasonality coupled with continued improvements to our conversion funnel.
- Expects a sequential increase in Q3 total gross margin as a result of an improvement in Connected Fitness gross margin due to the introduction of Tread+ deliveries along with a smaller impact from seasonal mix-shift toward our Subscription segment.
- Expects a sequential improvement in Q3 Adjusted EBITDA mainly due to lower sales and marketing expense.
- Faster growth for our Bike rental program and revenue from deliveries of Tread+.
Challenges Ahead
- Uncertainty surrounding our ability to efficiently grow Paid App subscribers
- Performance of other new initiatives
- An uncertain macroeconomic outlook.
- Expectation that churn will follow our historical seasonal pattern, which includes a seasonal increase in paused subscriptions in Q4.
- Current trends for hardware sales will persist through the remainder of fiscal year.
