Speaker #2: Additional information about these non-gap financial measures, including their definitions, are included in our earnings press release which we issued today. I'll now hand the call over to Oran.

Speaker #3: Thanks, everyone, for joining our call today. 2025 was a strong year for Oddity. We delivered record financial results with revenue adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS all ahead of our plan.

Oran Holtzman: Thanks, everyone, for joining our call today. 2025 was a strong year for Ulta. We delivered record financial results, with revenue, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EPS, all ahead of our plan. Revenue increased 25% to a record $810 million. We delivered record adjusted EBITDA of $163 million, representing 20.2% adjusted EBITDA margin. Across the year, we were able to once again raise our financial outlook every quarter on revenue and profit. This is despite experiencing challenging and user acquisition costs in H2 that drove an increase in advertising spend. Our strong and profitable repeat rates allowed us to once again deliver results ahead of our plan. We accomplished all of this while investing heavily in our future.

Speaker #3: Revenue increased 25% to a record $810 million, with delivered record adjusted EBITDA of $163 million, representing a 20.2% adjusted EBITDA margin. Across the year, we were able to once again raise our financial outlook every quarter on revenue and profit, and this is despite experiencing challenging end-user acquisition costs in H2 that drove an increase in advertising spend.

Speaker #3: Our strong and profitable repeat rates allowed us to once again deliver results ahead of our plan. And we accomplished all of this while investing heavily in our future.

Speaker #3: Notably, this year we successfully launched our third brand, Methodic, which expands our reach into the medical-grade space where we see enormous potential. In addition, we continued our ongoing investments in Oddity Labs in our tech infrastructure as well as new products and new brands.

Oran Holtzman: Notably, this year, we successfully launched our third brand, METHODIQ, which expands our reach into the medical grade space, where we see enormous potential. In addition, we continued our ongoing investments in ODDITY Labs, in our tech infrastructure, as well as new products and new brands. We believe that our powerful platform, brand, and technology, combined with our growth investments, create long runway for us to grow in a big, attractive, and profitable category, where we are well-positioned to outrun our competition. We finished the year with strong balanced position, with $776 million in cash and cash equivalents. Even as we work tirelessly to address what we believe is a near-term dislocation in our user acquisition cost, there is no change to our long-term vision, strategy, or our commitment to growth. First, the consumer immigration online, where our brands maintain leading positions.

Speaker #3: We believe that our powerful platform, brand, and technology, combined with our growth investments, create a long runway for us to grow in a big, attractive, and profitable category.

Speaker #3: Where we are well positioned to outrun our competition. We finished the year with strong balance sheet position with $776 million in cash and cash equivalents.

Speaker #3: Even as we work tirelessly to address what we believe is a near-term dislocation in our user acquisition cost, there is no change to our long-term vision, strategy, or our commitment to growth.

Speaker #3: First, the consumer moderation online where our brands maintain leading positions. One of the best indicators of our business health is our very strong repeat sales.

Oran Holtzman: One of the best indicators of our business health is our very strong repeat sales. In 2025, approximately 70% of Ulta's revenue came from repeat sales. Customer cohorts repeat behavior remains very strong and continues to increase. 12-month net revenue repeat rates for our 2024 cohort of first purchasers increased from the 2023 cohort and remained over 100%. We believe these are outstanding repeat metrics compared with other direct-to-consumer companies and reflect the health of our brands, the quality of our products, and the high satisfaction from our customers. Moving to our brands, IL MAKIAGE grew revenue low double digits in 2025 to approximately $560 million. IL MAKIAGE Skin was a highlight as planned and finished the year at approximately 40% of IL MAKIAGE brand revenue, expanding from around 30% of brand revenue in 2024.

Speaker #3: In 2025, approximately 70% of Oddity's revenue came from repeat sales. Customer cohorts repeat behavior remained very strong and continues to increase. 12-month net revenue repeat rates for our 2024 cohort of first purchases increased from the 2023 cohort and remained over 100%.

Speaker #3: We believe these are outstanding repeat metrics compared with other direct-to-consumer companies and reflect the health of our brand's the quality of our products and the high satisfaction from our customers.

Speaker #3: Moving to our brands. Ilmakiage grew revenue low double digits in 2025 to approximately $560 million. Ilmakiage Skin was a highlighted brand and finished the year at approximately 40% of Ilmakiage brand revenue, expanding from around 30% of brand revenue in 2024.

Speaker #3: The rapid success of Ilmakiage Skin since its launch in 2022 demonstrates the power of our platform and our ability to leverage our user base and technology to quickly scale new products and categories.

Oran Holtzman: The rapid success of IL MAKIAGE Skin since its launch in 2022, demonstrates the power of our platform and our ability to leverage our user base and technology to quickly scale new products and categories. International markets were also a key driver for IL MAKIAGE. Our International Revenue, the majority of which is from IL MAKIAGE, grew 42% for the year. International markets represent 17.5% of overall Our net revenue for 2025, compared with many of our competitors that generate more than 65% of net sales from international markets. SpoiledChild also had a strong year, increasing revenue double digits to approximately $250 million. This is an incredible accomplishment for an online-only brand that just launched 4 years ago, and once again, shows the power of our platform and ability to scale.

Speaker #3: International markets were also a key driver for Ilmakiage. Oddity international revenue the majority of which is from Ilmakiage grew 42% for the year. International markets represent $17.5% of overall Oddity net revenue for 2025 compared with many of our competitors that generate more than 65% of net sales from international markets.

Speaker #3: Spoiled Child also had a strong year, increasing revenue double digits to approximately $250 million. This is an incredible accomplishment for an online-only brand that just launched four years ago and once again shows the power of our platform and ability to scale.

Speaker #3: We remain excited about Spoiled Child's long-term potential, including new product expansion in beauty and wellness. The launch of Methodic, our third brand, was a highlight accomplishment in 2025.

Oran Holtzman: We remain excited about SpoiledChild's long-term potential, including new product expansion in beauty and wellness. The launch of METHODIQ, our third brand, was a highlight accomplishment in 2025. METHODIQ is a medical telehealth platform that aims to deliver high-efficacy treatment at scale, starting in dermatology, addressing concerns like acne, hyperpigmentation, and eczema. It is off to a great start, and we are very pleased to see its initial success. Our early focus on acne, hyperpigmentation, and colored products is showing good traction, and we believe this will be big categories for us. We are seeing good metrics and continuous improvement in our KPIs, even as our customer cohorts increase in size. What we see METHODIQ's app engagement reinforces our view that METHODIQ can uniquely deliver high standards of care for a broad audience and do it with great convenience.

Speaker #3: What we see in Methodic's app engagement reinforces our view that Methodic can uniquely deliver high standards of care for a broad audience and do it with great convenience.

Speaker #3: When we look at the app download rates, on both completion and weekly check-in rates, as well as care team engagement, we can see the demand, and we are bullish about how our app technology will drive user compliance, satisfaction, and success.

Oran Holtzman: When we look at the app download rates, onboard completion, weekly check-in rates, and care team engagement, we can see the demand, and we are bullish about how our app technology will drive user compliance, satisfaction, and success. Moving on to the second focus area of our long-term growth strategy, the consumer adoption of high-performance products that better address their pain points. Our product development pipeline for all three brands are focused on bringing the market top performance that we believe beat the competition on efficacy. ODDITY Labs continue to push the frontier of ingredient innovation in beauty and wellness. Over the past 18 months, we have made major strides in our capabilities and infrastructure to improve our work, with the goal of shrinking our timelines and improving the probability of success in identifying game-changing molecules.

Over the past 18 months, we've made major strides in our capabilities and infrastructure to improve our work with the goal of shrinking our timelines and improving the probability of success in identifying game-changing molecules.

Speaker #3: Our efforts in process and infrastructure have driven significant improvements in our productivity, increasing the number of targets we can tackle and allowing us to push projects along faster with greater accuracy.

Oran Holtzman: Our efforts in process and infrastructure have driven significant improvements in our productivity, increasing the number of targets we can tackle and allowing us to push projects along faster with greater accuracy. One highlight area is our work in traditional biology, which expands on our strong in silico and in vitro foundations. This will help us to get stronger reads on the most relevant biomarkers for our products, increases our predictive power of success, and does it in a way that is scalable, representative, and with rigorous science. Another highlight is our ability to identify biological targets that can influence a desired effect. We are focused on pain points with large commercial opportunities, including acne, hyperpigmentation, and aging, and our target list includes pathways like reducing melanin production and boosting collagen and elastin.

Speaker #3: Another highlight is our ability to identify biological targets that can influence a desired effect. We are focused on pain points with large commercial opportunities, including acne, hyperpigmentation, and aging, and our target lists include pathways like reducing melanin production and boosting collagen and elastin.

Speaker #3: We are leveraging AI agents to map targets and structures and also applying our work in traditional biology to identify novel targets. We recently expanded our capabilities into peptides to add to our small molecule foundations and are working on peptide solutions in areas like acne and aging.

Oran Holtzman: We are leveraging AI agent to map targets and structures and also applying our work in traditional biology to identify novel targets. We recently expanded our capabilities into peptides to add to our small molecule foundations, and are working on peptide solutions in areas like acne and aging. This expansion into peptides give us the flexibility to identify the right modality to address an individual biological target. At the same time, we are working in parallel to improve topical delivery of different activities to ensure they reach the relevant areas in skin and maximize the biological effect. We expect to have eight products in market in 2026 made with ODDITY Labs molecules. The innovation for METHODIQ is especially exciting, including molecules that cover key categories, including acne, eczema, and hyperpigmentation, and more to come in the future that we are bullish about. Turning to our acquisition costs.

Speaker #3: We expect to have eight products in market in 2026, made with Oddity Labs molecules. The innovation for Methodic is especially exciting, including molecules that cover key categories, including acne, eczema, and hyperpigmentation.

Speaker #3: And more to come in the future that we are bullish about. Turning to our acquisition costs. We experienced an unprecedented dislocation in our account with our largest advertising partner, which we believe is due to a recent change in their algorithms that likely diverted us to less desirable auctions and traffic at abnormally high costs.

Oran Holtzman: We experienced an unprecedented dislocation in our account with our largest advertising partner, which we believe is due to recent changes in their algorithms that likely diverted us to less desirable auctions and traffic at abnormally high costs. These changes resulted in significant abnormal increases in our new user acquisition costs for ODDITY that are not correlated with the market or our historical experience. We have never seen anything close to those acquisition costs, not in ODDITY and also not in other beauty advertisers. This elevated acquisition cost is severely hurting our ability to acquire new users efficiently at high scale, as we normally do in the first half of each year, and have done consistently for the past 8 years, very successfully.

Speaker #3: This change resulted in significant abnormal increases in our new user acquisition cost for Oddity that are not correlated with the market or our historical experience.

Speaker #3: We have never seen anything close to those acquisition costs, not in Oddity and also not in other beauty advertisers. This elevated acquisition cost is severely hurting our ability to acquire new users efficiently at high scale, as we normally do in the first half of each year and have done consistently for the past eight years very successfully.

Speaker #3: Both Ilmakiage and Spoiled Child appear to be impacted by this algorithm changes, although the impact on Ilmakiage was more severe probably due to its higher scale.

Oran Holtzman: Both IL MAKIAGE and SpoiledChild appear to be impacted by these algorithm changes, although the impact on IL MAKIAGE was more severe, probably due to its higher scale. After identifying the root cause in late January, we quickly moved to implement strong remediation actions, primarily around the model infrastructure, that we hope will get us back to the right auctions and ultimately drive improvement in our new user acquisition, with significant progress in Q2 and normalization in Q3 or Q4. These types of algorithm updates are not new and have been ongoing through the years, and we've historically adapted to them. In this case, it was harder than before to identify how these updates were impacting our business, and therefore it was harder to identify the root cause.

Speaker #3: After identifying the root cause in late January, we quickly moved to implement strong remedial actions, primarily around the model infrastructure, that we hope will get us back to the right auctions and ultimately drive improvement in our new user acquisition, with significant progress in Q2 and normalization in Q3 or Q4.

Speaker #3: These types of algorithm updates are not new, and have been ongoing through the years, and we've historically adapted to them. In this case, it was harder than before to identify how these updates were impacting our business, and therefore, it was harder to identify the root cause.

Speaker #3: We believe we got hit by the algorithm change due to our user acquisition strategy that includes a try-before-you-buy offering, which is a rare in beauty, and therefore, may be an edge case within the new algorithm changes.

Oran Holtzman: We believe we got hit by the algorithm change due to our user acquisition strategy that includes a Try Before You Buy offering, which is a rare in beauty and therefore may be an edge case within the new algorithm changes. We believe the algorithm updates impacts on how this platform interprets and weighs the signals associated with Try Before You Buy model, primarily due to its inherent higher return rates, and diverted us to lower quality auctions at abnormally high costs, disconnected from the market. For more context about the model, Try Before You Buy is designed for the benefit of the consumer by reducing the risk of trying our products online. It is a pro-consumer model that allow us to replicate online the experience of physical stores like Sephora, where consumers can try products in real life and materially reduce the risk of purchase.

Speaker #3: We believe the algorithm updates impact on how this platform interprets and weights the signals associated with try-before-you-buy model primarily due to its inherent higher written rates and diverted us to lower-quality auctions at abnormally high costs.

Speaker #3: This connected from the market. For more context about the model, try-before-you-buy is designed for the benefit of the consumer by reducing the risk of trying our products online.

Speaker #3: It is a pro-consumer model that allows us to replicate online the experience of physical stores like Sephora, where consumers can try products in real life and materially reduce the risk of purchase.

Speaker #3: This model is rare in beauty due to its complex execution. We believe it's an edge case and a non-obvious interaction within the platform's new auction dynamics.

Oran Holtzman: This model is growing beautifully due to its complex execution. We believe it's an edge case and a non-obvious interaction within the platform's new auction dynamics. After assessing the driver, what we believe is hitting us, we quickly moved to fix it. Our remediation actions are designed to reduce Try Before You Buy downweighting, while preserving the ability for new customers to purchase products on trial basis with minimal risk. Important to note, Try Before You Buy isn't a dependency for us. We offer it as a better alternative for consumers, our agile model allows us to rebalance towards the standard buy offering if we see it is needed. Unfortunately, because we only recently identified the root cause, despite working tirelessly to fix it, we have not had much time to take action, it takes time to recover.

Speaker #3: After assessing the driver, what we believe is hitting us, we quickly moved to fix it. Our remedial actions are designed to reduce try-before-you-buy downweighting while preserving the ability for new customers to purchase products on trial basis with minimal risk.

Speaker #3: Important to note, try-before-you-buy isn't a dependency for us. We offer it as a better alternative for consumer, but our agile model allows us to rebalance towards the standard buy offering if we see it is needed.

Speaker #3: Unfortunately, because we only recently identified the root cause and despite working tirelessly to fix it, we have not had much time to take action, and it takes time to recover.

Speaker #3: Therefore, we expect negative impact on our 2026 impact expected in H1. But I want to be very clear. Despite the dislocation in our new user acquisition, we are currently facing we are not changing our model, our strategy, or our long-term focus on growth.

Oran Holtzman: Therefore, we expect negative impact on our 2026 financial results, with the most significant impact expected in H1. I want to be very clear, despite the dislocation in our new user acquisition we are currently facing, we are not changing our model, our strategy, or our long-term focus on growth. The main objective of the company right now is correcting this issue and being in a position to immediately pivot back to growth. I want to close with some perspective on this moment in time. Over the past 8 years, we grew from $25 million of revenue to $800 million in revenue, despite multiple changes on ad tech side. A prominent one was iOS 14. We have navigated algorithm adjustments by our ad partners in the past, and we believe we will be able to also address the current dislocation.

Speaker #3: The main objective of the company right now is correcting this issue and being in a position to immediately pivot back to growth. I want to close with some perspective on this moment in time.

Speaker #3: Over the past eight years, we grew from 25 million dollars of revenue to 800 million dollars in revenue despite multiple changes on ad tech side a prominent one was iOS 14.

Speaker #3: We have navigated algorithm adjustments by our ad partners in the past, and we believe we will be able to also address the current dislocation.

Speaker #3: Most importantly, we believe we understand the problem, and in a world of complex online auctions, understanding the problem is always the hardest part. We don't see this as a structural issue or a secular disruption as you are seeing in other sectors, or a negative macro trend for our category.

Oran Holtzman: Most importantly, we believe we understand the problem, and in a world of complex online auctions, understanding the problem is always the hardest part. We don't see this as a structural issue or a secular disruption as you are seeing in other sectors, or a negative macro trend for our category. It is a technical issue, and from here, we believe it is a matter of time and execution to deliver the strong outcomes we have consistently delivered over the past eight years. As I said, we believe we have strong plan in place, and I hope to see normalization in H2. With that, I will turn it over to Lindsay.

Speaker #3: It is a technical issue and from here, we believe it is a matter of time and execution to deliver the strong outcomes we have constantly delivered over the past eight years.

Speaker #3: And as I said, we believe we have strong planning in place and I hope to see normalization in H2. With that, I will turn it over to Lindsay.

Speaker #1: Thanks, Aaron. Let's turn to our Q4 results, which I'll refer to on an adjusted basis. You can find the full reconciliation to gap in our press release.

Lindsay Drucker Mann: Thanks, Oran. Let's turn to our Q4 results, which I'll refer to on an adjusted basis. You can find the full reconciliation to GAAP in our press release. ODDITY delivered an outstanding quarter to cap off a record-breaking year. We grew net revenue by 24% in the quarter to $153 million. Growth was driven primarily by an increase in orders, while average order value declined slightly year-over-year. The 24% revenue growth we delivered this quarter exceeded our guidance for growth of 21% to 23%. Gross margin of 70.5% compressed 220 basis points year-over-year and exceeded our guidance for gross margins of 69%. The delta versus our outlook was driven in part by product mix.

Speaker #1: Oddity delivered an outstanding quarter to cap off a record-breaking year. We grew net revenue by 24% in the quarter to $153 million. Growth was driven primarily by an increase in orders, while average order value declined slightly year over year.

Speaker #1: The 24% revenue growth we delivered this quarter exceeded our guidance for growth of 21 to 23 percent. Gross margin of 70.5% compressed 220 basis points year over year, and exceeded our guidance for gross margins of 69%.

Speaker #1: The delta versus our outlook was driven in part by product mix. We delivered adjusted EBITDA of 13 million dollars in the quarter and adjusted EBITDA margin of 8.2%, above our guidance for adjusted EBITDA of 10 to 12 million dollars.

Lindsay Drucker Mann: We delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $13 million in the quarter and Adjusted EBITDA margin of 8.2%, above our guidance for Adjusted EBITDA of $10 to 12 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin compressed by 410 basis points year-over-year due to planned investments for future growth, including the METHODIQ brand launch, ODDITY Labs, and Brand Four, as well as higher media costs. We delivered Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.20 compared to our guidance for between $0.11 and 0.13. Our Adjusted EBITDA and earnings per share excludes approximately $8 million of share-based compensation. Turning to some highlights for the full year of 2025. We grew net revenue by 25% to $810 million, with double-digit growth from both IL MAKIAGE and SpoiledChild.

Speaker #1: Adjusted EBITDA margin compressed by 410 basis points year over year due to planned investments for future growth, including the Methodic brand launch, Oddity Labs, and Brand Four, as well as higher media costs.

Speaker #1: We delivered adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.20, compared to our guidance of between $0.11 and $0.13. Our adjusted EBITDA and earnings per share exclude approximately $8 million of share-based compensation.

Speaker #1: Turning to some highlights for the full year of 2025. We grew net revenue by 25% to 810 million dollars with double-digit growth from both Ilmakiage and Spoiled Child.

Speaker #1: This 25% growth is ahead of our long-term algorithm target for 20% sustained top-line growth. Net revenue growth was primarily driven by an increase in orders, while average order value increased slightly year over year.

Lindsay Drucker Mann: This 25% growth is ahead of our long-term algorithm target for 20% sustained top-line growth. Net revenue growth was primarily driven by an increase in orders, while average order value increased slightly year-over-year. Gross margin of 72.7% expanded 30 basis points year-over-year, driven by cost efficiencies. We delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $163 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 20.2% is consistent with our 20% long-term earnings algorithm target. That's despite our planned investments in future growth initiatives, including METHODIQ brand launch and ODDITY Labs. Despite increased advertising costs, advertising costs increased approximately 50% year-over-year, reflecting growth investments in international markets and METHODIQ, as well as higher acquisition costs for IL MAKIAGE and SpoiledChild. We delivered Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $2.21.

Speaker #1: Gross margin of 72.7% expanded 30 basis points year over year, driven by cost efficiencies. We delivered adjusted EBITDA of 163 million dollars. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 20.2% is consistent with our 20% long-term earnings algorithm target.

Speaker #1: And that's despite our planned investments in future growth initiatives, including the Methodic brand launch and Oddity Labs, and despite increased advertising costs. Advertising costs increased approximately 50% year over year, reflecting growth investments in international markets and Methodic, as well as higher acquisition costs for Il Makiage and Spoiled Child.

Speaker #1: We delivered adjusted diluted earnings per share of $2.21. We exited the year in a strong liquidity position, including 776 million dollars of cash, cash equivalents, and investments on our balance sheet.

Lindsay Drucker Mann: We exited the year in a strong liquidity position, including $776 million of cash equivalents, and investments on our balance sheet. The buildup in reserves in 2025 was driven by our successful exchangeable note offering and free cash generation of $84 million for the year. Free cash flow in Q4 was negatively impacted by approximately $19 million of increased inventory, due in part to new inventory investments in METHODIQ, on top of our seasonal inventory build ahead of the Q1 selling period. We amended our credit facilities in January 2026 to expand our borrowing capacity to $350 million. These facilities remain undrawn. As for potential uses of cash, we believe repurchasing our stock is attractive at recent share prices and intend to opportunistically return cash to shareholders through buybacks.

Speaker #1: The buildup in reserves in 2025 was driven by our successful exchangeable note offering and free cash generation of 84 million dollars for the year.

Speaker #1: Free cash flow in the fourth quarter was negatively impacted by approximately 19 million dollars of increased inventory, due in part to new inventory investments in methodic on top of our seasonal inventory build ahead of the Q1 selling period.

Speaker #1: We amended our credit facilities in January of 2026 to expand our borrowing capacity to $350 million. These facilities remain undrawn. As for potential uses of cash, we believe repurchasing our stock is attractive at recent share prices, and intend to opportunistically return cash to shareholders through buybacks.

Speaker #1: There's 103 million dollars remaining on our previously announced repurchase authorization. As Aaron discussed, we experienced a significant increase in our new user acquisition spend Q1 to date.

Lindsay Drucker Mann: There's $103 million remaining on our previously announced repurchase authorization. As Oran discussed, we experienced a significant increase in our new user acquisition spend Q1 to date. The timing of normalization is uncertain, although we're working hard to have this behind us. Our remediation actions have started but are still in early stages, so we're not going to make any predictions on their success. Due to the uncertain timing of recovery, we're not issuing full year 2026 guidance at this time, but we'll provide updates to our progress and outlook as we get more visibility. A few things to keep in mind for your models. We expect Q1 sales will decline approximately 30% due to reduced acquisition revenue.

Speaker #1: The timing of normalization is uncertain, although we're working hard to have this behind us. Our remediation actions have started but are still in early stages, so we're not going to make any predictions on their success.

Speaker #1: Due to the uncertain timing of recovery, we're not issuing full-year 2026 guidance at this time, but we'll provide updates on our progress and outlook as we get more visibility.

Speaker #1: A few things to keep in mind for your models. We expect Q1 sales will decline approximately 30% due to reduced acquisition revenue. We're still spending acquisition dollars today, despite much higher CPA.

Lindsay Drucker Mann: We're still spending acquisition dollars today despite much higher CPA. This is so that we can continue feeding the algorithms the signals needed to reset and normalize. At current CPAs, we are not profitable at first order. That has material negative impact on our near-term EBITDA. We are, however, still profitable on a 12-month direct contribution margin basis because of the strong repeat we generate from acquisition sales. Based on the expected timing of CPA normalization, Q2 sales are also likely to decline. It's too soon to determine the magnitude. Q1 and Q2 are historically our largest periods of user acquisition. From that acquisition, we typically generate significant repeat revenue over the balance of the year. The reduced user acquisition activity today will therefore result in lower repeat sales later in the year, even if acquisition costs normalize.

Speaker #1: And this is so that we can continue feeding the algorithms the signals needed to reset and normalize. At current CPAs, we are not profitable at first order, and that has material negative impact on our near-term EBITDA.

Speaker #1: We are, however, still profitable on a 12-month direct contribution margin basis because of the strong repeat we generate from acquisition sales. Based on the expected timing of CPA normalization, Q2 sales are also likely to decline, but it's too soon to determine the magnitude.

Speaker #1: Q1 and Q2 are historically our largest periods of user acquisition, and from that acquisition, we typically generate significant repeat revenue over the balance of the year.

Speaker #1: The reduced user acquisition activity today will therefore result in lower repeat sales later in the year, even if acquisition costs normalize. We're managing costs through this period to offset EBITDA pressure, but continue to carve out investments in growth initiatives like Oddity Labs, new brands, product development, and our tech infrastructure.

Lindsay Drucker Mann: We're managing costs through this period to offset EBITDA pressure, but continue to carve out investments in growth initiatives like ODDITY Labs, new brands, product development, and our tech infrastructure, and we believe this is the right strategy to set us up for sustained growth if CPA normalizes. With that, I'll hand it back to the operator for questions.

Speaker #1: And we believe this is the right strategy to set us up for sustained growth if CPA normalizes. With that, I'll hand it back to the operator for questions.

Speaker #2: Thank you. We will now be conducting a question-and-answer session. Please limit yourselves to one question. If you would like to ask a question, please press star 1 on your telephone keypad.

Speaker #2: For participants using speaker equipment, it may be necessary to pick up your handset before pressing the star keys. One moment, please, while we pull for questions.

Speaker #2: The first question is from Youssef Squally from Truist Securities. Please go ahead.

Youssef Squali: Great. Thank you, guys, for taking the question. Maybe dig a little deeper into the algo change. I'm assuming this is related to Google's Andromeda. When did the issue actually start? When did you start seeing it? Is it continuing to, is the trend continuing to worsen, or has it kind of stabilized? Lastly, Oran, when you talk about the issue being related to Try Before You Buy,

Speaker #3: Great. Thank you, guys, for taking the question. Maybe dig a little deeper into the elbow change. I'm assuming this is related to Google's Andromeda.

Speaker #3: When did the issue actually start? When did you start seeing it? Has it, is it continuing to—is the trend continuing to worsen, or has it kind of stabilized?

Speaker #3: And And lastly, Oran, when you talk about the issue being related to try before you buy, does that mean that you guys are going to de-emphasize that, or is there work around it such that you can continue to differentiate yourself through that offering and still maybe rank higher?

Brian Fitzgerald: Does that mean that you guys are going to de-emphasize that, or is there a workaround it, such that you can continue to differentiate yourself through that offering and still maybe rank higher? Thanks.

Youssef Squali: Does that mean that you guys are going to de-emphasize that, or is there a workaround it, such that you can continue to differentiate yourself through that offering and still maybe rank higher? Thanks.

Speaker #3: Thanks.

Speaker #2: Thanks, Youssef. We didn't specifically name the advertising partner, but the issue is we first observed that something was different in the second half of 2025, and we did call it out on our November earnings call.

Lindsay Drucker Mann: Thank you, Yusuf. We didn't specifically name the advertising partner, the issue is, we first observed that something was different in the second half of 2025, and we did call it out on our November earnings call. It did get much worse as we entered 2026 and really began to scale our business. And I think, you know, at the time when we'd spoken to you, we had started to see some improvement, but it's always difficult for us to get a read on CPA, you know, as you go in the holiday quarter, because it's just not a typical market. There's a lot of noise. As we moved into Q1 and we started to scale, that's when we saw the dislocation.

Speaker #2: But it did get much worse as we entered 2026 and really began to scale our business. And I think at the time, when we'd spoken to you, we had started to see some improvement.

Speaker #2: But it's always difficult for us to get a read on CPA as you go in the holiday quarter because it's just not a typical market.

Speaker #2: There's a lot of noise, and so as we moved into Q1 and we started to scale, that's when we saw the dislocation.

Oran Holtzman: Hi, Yusuf. Moving from Try Before You Buy, we believe that we can still solve it. We try. As I mentioned, we believe it's pro-consumer. We believe it's the right thing to do. I also mentioned that we can, that we know how to move to buy, like the rest of the industry. I want to say that more than 9 or 95% are selling via buy, so it's not something new, and we know how to do. What we do, there are a range of things that we did to identify the issue and working on fixing it. We Try Before You Buy, including dip signals, audit, funnel UI, and UX adjustments.

Speaker #4: As for how, Youssef, as for moving from 'try before you buy,' look, we believe that we can still solve it. We try. As I mentioned, we believe it's pro-consumer.

Speaker #4: We believe it's the right thing to do. But I also mentioned that we can, that we know how to move to buy the rest of the industry.

Speaker #4: It's I want to say that more than 95% are selling via buy, so it's not something new, and we know how to do. As for what we do, there are a range of things that we did to identify the issue and working on fixing it.

Speaker #4: We try before you buy. Including deep signals audit, funnel UI and UX adjustments, a lot of work on the infrastructure side. Building new prediction models, offering adjustments, and different audience strategies.

Oran Holtzman: A lot of work on the infrastructure side, building new prediction models, offering adjustments and different audience strategies. We wouldn't sit here today if we didn't think that we can solve it. We try. We would say that we are moving to buy, but the fact that we believe that it's solvable with the current business model.

Speaker #4: We wouldn't sit here today if we didn't think that we can solve it. We try. We would say that we are moving to buy, but the fact is that we believe that it's solvable with the current business model.

Speaker #3: Great. Thank you both.

Brian Fitzgerald: Great. Thank you both.

Youssef Squali: Great. Thank you both.

Speaker #2: The next question is from Anna Lizzle from Bank of America. Please go ahead.

Operator: The next question is from Ashley Helgans from Bank of America. Please go ahead.

Operator: The next question is from Anna Vitzel from Bank of America. Please go ahead.

Speaker #5: Hi. Good morning. Thank you so much for the question. I just wanted to ask on the change or the lack of guide here, I guess.

Ashley Helgans: Hi, good morning. Thank you so much for the question. Just wanted to ask on, you know, the change or the lack of guide here, I guess, and what you can recover for the remainder of the year. It does seem like an uphill battle. Is it possible to shift this user acquisition really from Q1 or H1 into Q2 or H2, or will there be more of a delay? Does this change your thinking at all on distribution, just given you are vastly sold on direct to consumer, would this make you think at all about going into retail? Thank you.

[Analyst]: Hi, good morning. Thank you so much for the question. Just wanted to ask on, you know, the change or the lack of guide here, I guess, and what you can recover for the remainder of the year. It does seem like an uphill battle. Is it possible to shift this user acquisition really from Q1 or H1 into Q2 or H2, or will there be more of a delay? Does this change your thinking at all on distribution, just given you are vastly sold on direct to consumer, would this make you think at all about going into retail? Thank you.

Speaker #5: In what you can recover for the remainder of the year, it does seem like an uphill battle. Is it possible to shift this user acquisition really from Q1 or H1 into Q2 or H2?

Speaker #5: Or will there be more of a delay? And does this change your thinking at all on distribution, just given you are vastly sold on direct-to-consumer?

Speaker #5: Would this make you think at all about going into retail? Thank you.

Speaker #4: As mentioned, no change in our strategy. Thank God this is our strategy. Online is our strategy. Online continues to grow. And there is no change in our plans, or no plans to move into retail at this point.

Oran Holtzman: As mentioned, no change in our strategy. Thank God, this is our strategy. Online is our strategy. Online continue to grow, and there is no change in our plans or no plans to move into retail at this point. We are confident we can go back to growth. We believe it's something that, it's a temporary change that happened that we need to adjust to. No change in distribution strategy. Lindsay, do you want to answer about the second half of the year?

Speaker #4: We are confident we can go back to growth. We believe it's something that it's a temporary change that happened that we need to adjust to.

Speaker #4: So no change in distribution strategy. Lindsay, do you want to answer about the second half of the year?

Speaker #5: Yeah. Thanks, Anna. So we're navigating a situation today where CPA is significantly higher than last year in some cases, 2 plus X higher. In some cases, and as a result, we've dialed back on our acquisition to manage it.

Lindsay Drucker Mann: Yeah. Thanks, Anna. We're navigating a situation today where CPA is significantly higher than last year, in some cases 2+x higher, in some cases, and as a result, we've dialed back on our acquisition to manage it. Remember that, as I mentioned in my prepared remarks, at current CPAs, we are not profitable at first order, and so that has a material negative impact on our near-term EBITDA. We are still profitable on a 12-month contribution margin basis. In the near term, as we spend, you have pressure. Since Q1 and Q2 are our largest periods of acquisition, you know, as I mentioned in my remarks, we'll have that carryover effect into the back half of the year as we lose the repeat.

Speaker #5: Remember that as I mentioned, my repaired remarks, at current CPAs, we are not profitable at first order. And so that has a material negative impact on our near-term EBITDA.

Speaker #5: We are still profitable on a 12-month contribution margin basis, but in the near term, as we spend, you have pressure. And since Q1 and Q2 are our largest periods of acquisition, we'll have, as I mentioned in my remarks, we'll have that carryover effect into the back half of the year as we lose the repeat.

Speaker #5: And so in the short term, we view this as a pothole that we'll have to recover from. But as the business and CPA normalizes, as we hope it will in the back half of the year, we'll be on a track to normalize our financial model as well.

Lindsay Drucker Mann: In the short term, we view this as a, as a pothole that we'll have to recover from. As the business and CPA normalizes, as we hope it will in the back half of the year, we'll be on a track to normalize our financial model as well.

Speaker #4: But by the way, I would just add that Lindsay mentioned even more than 2X. If we saw something gradually increasing in terms of CPA, we wouldn't think that something is completely off.

Oran Holtzman: By the way, I would just add that Lindsay mentioned even more than 2x, if we saw something gradually grow, like, increasing in terms of CPA, we wouldn't think that something is completely off. We know that the current numbers that we see in new acquisition are completely off market, and therefore, we believe it's something technical, and we work really hard to go back to. By the way, we never built a business on marketing margin, on making profit from better acquisition strategy or execution. We build a business on repeat that can protect us from regular increase in media spend.

Speaker #4: We know that the current numbers that we see in user acquisition are completely off-market, and we know it's and therefore, we believe it's something technical.

Speaker #4: And we work really hard to go back to by the way, we never build a business on marketing margin, on making profit from better acquisition.

Speaker #4: Strategy or execution, we build a business on repeat. That can protect us from regular increases in media spend. By the way, we see it every year.

Oran Holtzman: By the way, we see it every year, but this is something completely off, very unusual. We never saw anything like it. Based on my understanding, like, it doesn't exist elsewhere.

Speaker #4: But this is something completely off, very unusual, we never saw anything like it. And based on my understanding, it doesn't exist elsewhere.

Speaker #2: Thank you so much. The next question is from Brian Pinklage from Jefferies. Please go ahead.

Ashley Helgans: Thank you so much.

[Analyst]: Thank you so much.

Operator: The next question is from Brian Fitzgerald from Jefferies. Please go ahead.

Operator: The next question is from Brian Friedman from Jefferies. Please go ahead.

Speaker #6: Hey, good morning. Maybe Lindsay, just as I think about the model, right? I mean, one of the things that we've always loved about your business is how you can flex the advertising spend.

Brian Fitzgerald: Hey, good morning. Maybe, Lindsay, just as I think about the model, right? I mean, one of the things that we've always loved about your business is how you can flex the advertising spend. Obviously, as you said, CPA is up more than 2x in some cases. When you think about how you would strategize around this, I mean, once things normalize, I mean, should we expect kind of like, you know, a steep pullback on advertising expense? Just how you're thinking about strategizing around this once we get to that normalization point? Can you just give us any color on retention rates or reorder rates that you're seeing in the market? Thanks.

Brian Friedman: Hey, good morning. Maybe, Lindsay, just as I think about the model, right? I mean, one of the things that we've always loved about your business is how you can flex the advertising spend. Obviously, as you said, CPA is up more than 2x in some cases. When you think about how you would strategize around this, I mean, once things normalize, I mean, should we expect kind of like, you know, a steep pullback on advertising expense? Just how you're thinking about strategizing around this once we get to that normalization point? Can you just give us any color on retention rates or reorder rates that you're seeing in the market? Thanks.

Speaker #6: And obviously, as you said, CPA is up more than 2X in some cases. So when we think about how you would strategize around this, I mean, once things normalize, I mean, should we expect kind of like a steep pullback in advertising expense or just curious how you're thinking about strategizing around this once we hit that normalization point?

Speaker #6: And then, if you can just give us any color on retention rates or reorder rates that you're seeing in the market. Thanks.

Oran Holtzman: I'll start, and maybe you take it. Even when media is abnormal, as now, you don't want to stop the train. You still need to feed the algorithm and continue to spend so that you are giving it signals it needs to go back on track. We have balanced between not overspending at this crazy CPA that doesn't make sense, while keep and the signals going. That's our plan, to keep balance that way until we fix it.

Speaker #4: I'll start, and maybe you take it. Even when media is abnormal as it is now, you don't want to stop the trend. You still need to feed the algorithm and continue to spend, so that you are giving it the signals it needs to get back on track.

Speaker #4: We have balance between not overspending at this crazy CPA that doesn't make sense while keep the signals going. And that's our plan to keep balance that way until we fix it.

Speaker #2: As far as what normalization looks like for us, it would be something in line with what the rest of the industry CPA is. That's typically how our business is operated.

Lindsay Drucker Mann: As far as what normalization looks like for us, it would be something in line with what the rest of the industry CPA is. That's typically how our business is operated. It's a very, very big auction. It's a lot of competitors in there, and we typically are around where we would see our competition in terms of CPA. Right now, we're completely dislocated and off market, based on this dislocation and this malfunction of sorts. As we address it, as Oran said, we should be getting back to track. I don't know if I remember your second question.

Speaker #2: It's a very, very big auction. It's a lot of competitors in there. And we typically are around where we would see our competition in terms of CPA.

Speaker #2: Right now, we're completely dislocated and off-market. Based on this dislocation and this malfunction of sorts, and as we address it as Oran said, we should be getting back to track.

Speaker #2: I don't know if I remember your second question.

Speaker #6: Oh, just on the reorder rates, as you're seeing anything there as well.

Brian Fitzgerald: Oh, just on the reorder rates, if you're seeing any-

Brian Friedman: Oh, just on the reorder rates, if you're seeing any-

Lindsay Drucker Mann: Oh, yeah.

Brian Fitzgerald: change there as well.

Brian Friedman: change there as well.

Speaker #2: Oh, yeah. Thanks for repeat rates remain very strong. This is one of the reasons why we know we don't have a brand issue. We don't have a saturation issue.

Lindsay Drucker Mann: Repeat rates remain very strong. This is one of the reasons why we know, we don't have a brand issue, we don't have a saturation issue. We continue to see very good performance out of our repeat. Repeat revenue is for 2025, around 70% of our sales. As we look at our 12-month net revenue repeat rates, those increased again. The 2024 cohort that repeated in 2025, that number increased relative to the prior year, so that's well, nicely over 100%. Even as we look at our more recent cohorts within, who started in 2025, those net revenue repeat rates on a 6-month or so basis are better than they were in the prior year. That trend remains very strong.

Speaker #2: We continue to see very good performance out of our repeat revenue, which for 2025 is around 70% of our sales. And as we look at our 12-month net revenue repeat rates, those increased again.

Speaker #2: So the 2024 cohort, that repeated in 2025. That number increased relative to the prior year. So that's nicely over 100%. And even as we look at our more recent cohorts within who started in 2025, those net revenue repeat rates on a six-month or so basis are better than they were in the prior year.

Speaker #2: That trend remains very strong.

Speaker #6: Thank you.

Brian Fitzgerald: Thank you.

Brian Friedman: Thank you.

Speaker #2: The next question is from Andrew Boone from Citizens Bank. Please go ahead.

Operator: The next question is from Andrew Boone, from Citizens Bank. Please go ahead.

Speaker #4: Thanks so much for taking the question. Can you guys help us understand just what exactly is changing within your guys' funnel? Is this higher CPMs?

Andrew Boone: Thanks so much for taking the question. Can you guys help us understand just what exactly is changing within your guys' funnel? Is this higher CPMs? Is this lower click-through rates? Is this worse on-site conversion, meaning it's a lower quality user that you're targeting? Help us understand that dynamic. One of the things that we've also always appreciated about the business is just your ability to be able to pull different levers, to be able to sustain that 20% growth. Can you just help us understand the size of this channel and your inability to be able to allocate spend elsewhere, help us understand just why this is an overly large impact versus what we would have thought was a more diversified ad platform? Thank you.

Speaker #4: Is this lower click-through rates? Is this worse on-site conversion, meaning it's a lower quality user that you're targeting? Help us understand that dynamic. And then one of the things that we've also, always appreciated about the business is just your ability to be able to pull different levers, to be able to sustain that 20% growth.

Speaker #4: And so, can you just help us understand the size of this channel and your inability to be able to allocate spend elsewhere, and help us understand just why this is an overly large impact versus what we would have thought was a more diversified ad platform?

Speaker #4: Thank you.

Speaker #5: Yeah. When we refer to our ability to grow through multiple— in multiple areas, one thing that is important to note, because this change is for auditing, is global and across brands. It makes it harder.

Oran Holtzman: Yeah, when we refer to our ability to grow through multiple, in multiple areas, one thing that is important to note, because this change is for auditing, is global and across brands, it makes it harder. That's why, we came to the market with 30% decrease targeting in Q1. It's very hard to continue to grow without overspending. Obviously, this is something that we don't want to do in those CPA levels. Lindsay, you want to continue?

Speaker #5: And that's why we came to the market with a 30% decrease targeting in Q1. It's very hard to continue to grow without overspending. And obviously, this is something that we don't want to do at those CPA levels.

Speaker #5: Lindsay, you want to continue?

Speaker #2: Yeah. As it relates to mix, what I can tell you is that for our largest ad partner, if you just look at pure platform orders, so that's any order that can be attributed directly to an ad from this specific partner, those revenues make up just under a quarter of our revenue.

Lindsay Drucker Mann: Yeah. As it relates to mix, what I can tell you is that for our largest ad partner, if you just look at pure platform orders, so that's any order that can be attributed directly to an ad from this specific partner, those revenues make up just under a quarter of our revenue, and that's based on our internal attribution system. Keep in mind, this is just pure acquisition dollars, and on top of acquisition, you also get repeat, you have direct revenues, so there's additional impact. We have relationships with many different ad partners. I wanna say almost I don't want to say all of them, but many different ad partners. Your ability to scale is only so much with each individual, and so this is impacting us.

Speaker #2: And that's based on our internal attribution system. But keep in mind, this is just pure acquisition dollars. And on top of acquisition, you also get repeat.

Speaker #2: You have direct revenue, so there's additional impact. We have relationships with many different ad partners—I want to say almost, I don't want to say all of them, but many, many different ad partners.

Speaker #2: But your ability to scale is only so much with each individual. And so this is impacting us. The next question is from Georgia Anderson from Evercore ISI.

Operator: The next question is from Georgia Anderson from Evercore ISI. Please go ahead.

Speaker #2: Please go ahead.

Georgia Anderson: Hi, thanks so much for the time and the question. You mentioned that you've made kind of significant actions to fix this. Can you maybe clarify if these are more structural, I guess, technical fixes to your internal, I guess, data feedback loops, you know, maybe retraining your AI to find high intent users, sort of things like that? Is, you know, the rebound expected to come from a strategic shift in budget allocation? Maybe just talk us through the fixes that you're making.

Speaker #7: Hi. Thanks so much for the time and the question. You mentioned that you've made kind of significant actions to fix this. Can you maybe clarify if these are more structural, I guess, technical fixes to your internal, I guess, data feedback loops?

Speaker #7: Maybe retraining your AI to find high-intent users? Kind of things like that. Or is the rebound expected to come from a strategic shift in budget allocation?

Speaker #7: Maybe just talk us through the fixes that you're making.

Speaker #5: Yeah. It's both. Infrastructure side, offering adjustments and signal adjustments. We do all. The good thing about us is those points of time, like when you need to make multiple changes, we do everything in-house.

Oran Holtzman: Yeah, it's both, infrastructure side, offering adjustments, and signal adjustments. We do all. The good thing about us is, those point of time, like, when you need to make multiple changes, we do everything in-house. We are not dependent on third parties, data scientists, developers, media buyers, so we can run dozens of variants at the same time. That's what we did in the past few weeks. Therefore, we believe that we are more prepared than most companies to address it.

Speaker #5: We are not dependent on third parties—data scientists, developers, media buyers—so we can run dozens of variants at the same time. And that's what we did in the past few weeks.

Speaker #5: And therefore, we believe that we are more prepared than most companies to address it.

Speaker #2: Thank you. The next question is from Scott Schoenhaus from KeyBank Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

Georgia Anderson: Thank you.

Operator: The next question is from Scott Schoenhaus, from KeyBanc Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

Speaker #4: Hi, team. Thanks for taking my question. Oran and Lindsay, are there areas that you're currently seeing strength that you could possibly offset this weakness strategically?

Scott Schoenhaus: Hi, team. Thanks for taking my question. Oram and Lindsay, is there areas that you're currently seeing strength that you could possibly offset this weakness, strategically? I want to focus here on international opportunities. The Brand Three rollout, which you've mentioned was, has seen, nice success. Thanks.

Scott Schoenhaus: Hi, team. Thanks for taking my question. Oran and Lindsay, is there areas that you're currently seeing strength that you could possibly offset this weakness, strategically? I want to focus here on international opportunities. The Brand Three rollout, which you've mentioned was, has seen, nice success. Thanks.

Speaker #4: I want to focus here on international opportunities and then the brand three rollout, which you've mentioned was has seen nice success. Thanks.

Speaker #5: Yeah. I'll start with the good news. We launched brand three, Methodic, and it's growing more than what we saw in Il Makiage when we launched Il Makiage.

Oran Holtzman: Yeah, I'll start with the good news. We launched METHODIQ, and it's growing more than what we saw in IL MAKIAGE when we launched IL MAKIAGE. It's facing SpoiledChild, so we are very pleased to see the demand and success of METHODIQ. By the way, as we thought, as for international and other areas, you still need user acquisition, and we still don't want to overspend just to meet the revenue goals. I never run the business like that before, and that's why the business is profitable for many, many years, and last year, 20%. We first need to fix it, and then we go back to growth.

Speaker #5: It's facing spoiled child. So we are very pleased to see the demand and success of methodic. By the way, as we thought, as for international and other areas, you still need user acquisition.

Speaker #5: And we still don't want to overspend just to meet the revenue goals. I never run the business like that before. And that's why the business is profitable for many, many years.

Speaker #5: And last year, 20%. So we first need to fix it. And then we go back to growth.

Speaker #2: The next question is from Ryan McDonald from Needham and Company. Please go ahead. Ryan McDonald, your line is open.

Operator: The next question is from Ryan MacDonald, from Needham & Company. Please go ahead. Ryan MacDonald, your line is open.

Speaker #8: Oh, thanks. Sorry, I was muted there. Thanks for taking my questions. As we think about balancing sort of the near-term priority of sort of fixing the problem here, versus sort of balancing with longer-term investments to sort of continue the growth sort of growth trajectory, once these problems are solved, can you talk about sort of what that balance looks like internally right now?

Ryan MacDonald: Oh, thanks. Sorry, I was muted there. Thanks for taking my questions. As we think about balancing sort of the near-term priority of fixing the problem here versus sort of balancing with longer term investments to sort of continue the growth trajectory once these problems are solved, can you talk about sort of what that balance looks like internally right now? What are some of the priorities, whether it's continuing down the path with product development, with ODDITY Labs, you know, growing METHODIQ brand, you know. Is there a risk here that we see a delay or a pushout in sort of the Brand Four launch plans as well? Thanks.

Speaker #8: And then, what are some of the priorities? Whether it's continuing down the path with product development, with Audit Labs, growing the Method IQ brand—also, is there a risk here that we see a delay or a push-out in, sort of, the Brand Four launch plans as well?

Speaker #8: Thanks.

Oran Holtzman: Since we believe we identified the problem, we're not changing our investments in growth. We believe it's the right thing to do. We continue to invest in labs. We continue to build Brand Four, and we continue to work tirelessly on new products in NPD for IL MAKIAGE, SpoiledChild, and METHODIQ. That's for the first question. The second one, what was it, Lisa?

Speaker #5: Since we identified since we believe we identified the problem, we're not changing our investments in growth. We believe it's the right thing to do.

Speaker #5: We continue to invest in labs. We continue to build Brand Four. And we continue to work tirelessly on new products in NPD for Il Makiage, SpoiledChild, and Methodic.

Speaker #5: And that's for the first question. The second one, what was it, Lindsay?

Speaker #2: What was the second question, Ryan?

Operator: What was the second question, Ryan?

Speaker #8: Yeah. So it was just any concerns about a delay in brand four. And then as we kind of come out of this whether you lean into investment of more aggressive for growth as we work toward back towards the balance of 2020 or sort of work more towards margin expansion.

Ryan MacDonald: Yeah, it was just any concerns about a delay in Brand Four, and then as we kind of come out of this, whether you lean into investment of more aggressive for growth, as we back towards the balance of 2020 or sort of work more towards margin expansion. Thanks.

Speaker #8: Thanks.

Speaker #4: The current focus of my leadership is fixing the problem. That's the first priority. Most of the teams are working on that. At the same time, we continue to invest in OEC labs.

Oran Holtzman: The current focus of my leadership is fixing the problem. That's the first priority, most of the teams are working on that. At the same time, we continue to invest in ODDITY Labs, we continue to grow it, and we continue to build Brand Four.

Speaker #4: We continue to grow it. And we continue to build brand four.

Operator: The next question is from Lauren Lieberman, from Barclays. Please go ahead.

Operator: The next question is from Kate Grafstein, from Barclays. Please go ahead.

Speaker #2: The next question is from Kate Grafstein from Barclays. Please go ahead.

Speaker #9: Hi. Thanks. I was just wondering how does this dislocation impact the launch of methodic? I know you had planned to step up spending in the first half of the year with this launch.

Lauren Lieberman: Hi, thanks. I was just wondering, how does this dislocation impact the launch of METHODIQ? I know you had planned to step up spending in the first half of the year with this launch, and that was expected to have an impact on your EBITDA margins in the first half.

Kate Grafstein: Hi, thanks. I was just wondering, how does this dislocation impact the launch of METHODIQ? I know you had planned to step up spending in the first half of the year with this launch, and that was expected to have an impact on your EBITDA margins in the first half.

Speaker #9: And that was expected to have an impact on your EBITDA margins in the first half.

Speaker #5: Yeah. The fact that methodic is relatively small, we can it means that we can continue to grow it without the negative effect that we see.

Oran Holtzman: Yeah. The fact that METHODIQ is relatively small, it means that we can continue to grow it without the negative effect that we see.
