ODDITY Tech Ltd. (NASDAQ: ODD) today announced that its Board of
Directors has approved a share buyback program authorizing the
repurchasing on the open market of a maximum of $150 million of the
Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares (the “Buyback Plan”), subject to
market conditions, legal and regulatory constraints, the terms of
the Plan, and other strategic priorities. The Buyback Plan will
expire on June 30, 2027 or once the allocated funds have been fully
deployed, subject to any future modifications by the Board.
ODDITY currently has over $250 million of cash,
cash equivalents, and investments on its balance sheet. It has zero
financial debt, and an additional $100 million available through an
undrawn credit facility. The company’s cash deployment strategy
prioritizes reinvestment in the business, M&A, and buybacks as
appropriate.
Due to the approval of the Buyback Plan, ODDITY
is now providing a refined outlook for Q2 2024. ODDITY expects to
deliver revenue at the top end of the range, and EBITDA and EPS
exceeding the range included in its latest guidance of May 7,
2024.
Accordingly, ODDITY is revising its guidance for
the second quarter ending June 30, 2024:
- Net revenue of approximately $189 million, representing
year-over-year growth of 25%.
- Gross margin of approximately 71.0%.
- Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $60 million.
- Adjusted diluted EPS approximately $0.69.

The financial outlook figures presented above
are forward-looking statements that are subject to a variety of
assumptions and estimates. 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 the following
non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted EBITDA 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 items. ODDITY
believes Adjusted EBITDA is 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 provides meaningful supplemental information
regarding its performance. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is 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 diluted earnings per
share” as Adjusted net income divided by diluted shares
outstanding. ODDITY defines “Adjusted net income” as net income
adjusted for the impact of share-based compensation, non-recurring
items and the tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments. ODDITY believes
the presentation of Adjusted diluted earnings per share is useful
because it is frequently used by analysts, investors and other
interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. Further,
ODDITY believes this measure is helpful in highlighting trends in
our operating results, because it excludes 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 our industry, may calculate
these measures differently or not at all, which reduces their
usefulness as comparative measures.
