ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

You should consider carefully the following risks and uncertainties when reading this Report. If any of the events described below actually occur, the Company’s business, financial condition, and operating results could be materially adversely affected.

Table of Contents

You should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such risks and uncertainties. Consequently, you should not consider the following to be a complete discussion of all potential risks or uncertainties.

Risks Related to Our Business

The metabolic health and weight management industry is highly competitive and the development and acceptance of weight-loss medicines and other products could result in decreased demand for our services and products.

Competition is intense in the metabolic health and weight management industry and we must remain competitive in the areas of program efficacy, price, taste, client service and brand recognition. Our competitors include companies selling metabolic health and weight loss medications, pharmaceutical products and weight loss programs, digital tools, app-based health and wellness monitoring solutions and wearable trackers, as well as a wide variety of diet foods and meal replacement bars and shakes, appetite suppressants and nutritional supplements. Some of our competitors are significantly larger than we are and have substantially greater resources. Any increased competition from new entrants into our industry or any increased success by existing competition could result in reductions in our sales or prices, or both, which could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Additionally, the entrance into the market and growing acceptance of the favorably perceived and easier to use weight loss medications, such as GLP-1s, has reduced and may further reduce demand for our services and products.

Deterioration of economic conditions, an economic recession or slow growth, periods of inflation or economic uncertainty, could continue to adversely affect consumer spending as well as demand for our products.

General global economic downturns and macroeconomic trends, including the possibility of heightened inflation, capital market volatility, interest rate and currency rate fluctuations, and economic slowdown or recession, may result in unfavorable conditions that could negatively affect consumer spending and demand for our products, and exacerbate some of the other risks that affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. For example, economic forces, including changes in disposable consumer income and/or reductions in discretionary spending, unemployment levels, labor shortages, demographic trends, inflation and consumer confidence in the economy, may cause consumers to defer or decrease purchases of our products which could adversely affect our revenue, gross profit, and/or our overall financial condition and operating results.

We may not be able to successfully implement new strategic transformation, which could adversely impact our business.

We are continuously evaluating changing consumer preferences and the competitive environment of our industry and seeking out opportunities to improve our performance through the implementation of selected strategic initiatives. In October 2025, in response to continuing changes in the weight management industry and market conditions, we announced our strategic transformation, focusing on holistic metabolic health. The goal of these efforts is to position our business around holistic metabolic health, with the objective of expanding our addressable market, improving long-term growth prospects, and reversing recent declines in performance. This strategy involves significant investments in new products, programs, scientific research, marketing initiatives, and coach enablement efforts, as well as changes to how we present our value proposition to consumers and our coach community. Our future growth and revenue depend upon the effectiveness and successful implementation of our strategic transformation plan. Our strategic transformation plan resulted in changes to our business operations and supply chain leadership structure. Our strategic transformation plan is expected to result in additional changes to business priorities, marketing and brand strategies, as well as increased demands on management.

There can be no assurance that the execution of our strategic plan will be successful or that it will be adopted by consumers or coaches at the pace or scale we expect. The metabolic health market is highly competitive and evolving rapidly, with participants ranging from pharmaceutical and medical providers to digital health platforms and consumer wellness brands. If we are unable to clearly differentiate our offerings, effectively communicate our value proposition, or demonstrate meaningful outcomes relative to competing solutions, our growth initiatives may not generate the expected results.

Our future financial performance and projections increasingly depend on the successful execution of our strategic transformation. If demand for our metabolic health offerings does not materialize, if customer acquisition or retention does not improve, if coach engagement or productivity does not increase, or if our investments fail to produce sustainable revenue growth, our operating results, cash flows, and overall financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In such circumstances, we may be required to reassess our strategy, curtail or redirect investments, or take additional actions that could negatively impact our business.

The success of our business is dependent on our ability to maintain and grow our network of coaches.

We consider our number of active earning coaches and average quarterly revenue per active earning coach to be key indicators of our financial performance and condition. For the quarter ended December 31, 2025, the Company had 16,100 total active earning coaches as compared to 19,500 for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 and 27,100 for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. If we are unable to reverse the downtrend of the number of active earning coaches, which has been declining since the first quarter of 2023, our future revenue and operating results will continue to be adversely affected, as we believe that the success of the Company depends on the success of our coaches.

Additionally, coaches are subject to high turnover, and we depend on our network of coaches to continually grow their businesses by supporting clients and attracting, training and motivating new coaches. Our failure to provide the business essentials, education, and competitive compensation necessary to motivate coaches to grow their businesses will adversely affect our future growth and operating results. The growth and sustainability of our network of coaches is also subject to risks which may be outside of our control. These include: potential misconduct or improper claims by coaches; negative public perceptions of multi-level marketing; general economic conditions; failure to develop innovative products to meet consumer demands; adverse opinions of our products, services, or industry; and regulatory actions against our Company, competitors in our industry, or other direct selling companies.

If we do not continue to develop innovative new products or if our products do not continue to appeal to the market, or if we are unable to successfully expand or respond to consumer trends, our business may suffer.

The increasing focus of consumers on more integrated lifestyle and fitness approaches rather than just food, nutrition and diet could adversely impact the popularity of our programs. Our future success depends on our ability to continue to develop and market new, innovative products and to enhance our existing products, each on a timely basis to respond to new and evolving consumer demands, achieve market acceptance and keep pace with new nutritional, weight management, technological and other developments. We may not be successful in developing, introducing on a timely basis or marketing any new or enhanced products, and we cannot assure you that any new or enhanced products will appeal to the market. Our results of operations are highly dependent on the number of product sales generated by our coaches. Our failure to develop new products and to enhance our existing products, and the failure of our products to continue to appeal to the market could have an adverse impact on our ability to attract and retain clients and thus adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Additionally, we commit and invest substantial time and resources into developing innovative new products. There is no assurance that any new products, including the reformulation of our Essential line of products, will be successfully adopted by our client base, or that we will be able promote such new products without taking steps such as reducing pricing or incurring acquisition costs that would affect our revenues and/or profitability.

Our business depends on the effectiveness of our advertising and marketing programs, including the strength of the Company's and our coaches’ social media presence, to attract and retain clients. Use of social media may materially and adversely affect our reputation or subject us to fines or other penalties, and restrictions on the use of or access to social media may adversely impact sales of our products and services.

Our business success depends on our ability to attract and retain clients. Our ability to attract and retain clients depends significantly on the effectiveness of our coaches’ advertising and marketing practices. Our coaches support our clients and market our products and services primarily through word of mouth, email and via social media channels such as Facebook, Instagram, X, and video conferencing platforms. If their advertising and marketing campaigns do not generate a sufficient number of clients, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected.

We and our coaches, as well as social media influencers or other brand ambassadors that we may utilize from time to time, use email and social media platforms as a means of communicating with clients. We use digital marketing, social media, and email marketing, among other means, to attract and retain clients. Unauthorized or inappropriate use of these channels could result in harmful publicity or negative consumer experiences, which could have an adverse impact on the effectiveness of our marketing through these channels. In addition, the rising popularity of social media and other consumer-oriented technologies has increased the speed and accessibility of information dissemination. Our target consumers often value readily available information and often act on such information without further investigation and without regard to its accuracy. The harm may be immediate without affording us an opportunity for redress or correction. Negative or false commentary about us may be posted on social media platforms or similar devices at any time and may harm our business, brand, reputation, coaches, financial condition, and results of operations, regardless of the information’s accuracy.

Table of Contents

An increase in the use of social media for product promotion and marketing may cause an increase in the burden on us to monitor compliance of such materials and increase the risk that such materials could contain problematic product or marketing claims in violation of applicable regulations. As laws and regulations, including FTC enforcement, rapidly evolve to govern the use of these platforms and devices, the failure by us, our employees, or our coaches or other third parties acting at our direction to abide by applicable laws and regulations in the use of these platforms and devices could adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations or subject us to fines or other penalties.

Our direct selling model may be challenged, which could harm our business.

We may be subject to challenges by government regulators regarding our direct selling model. Legal and regulatory requirements concerning the direct selling industry generally do not include “bright line” rules and are inherently fact-based and subject to interpretation. As a result, regulators and courts have discretion in their application of these laws and regulations, and the enforcement or interpretation of these laws and regulations by government agencies or courts can change. Additionally, the direct selling industry is also under regular scrutiny by the Direct Selling Self-Regulatory Council, which is one of the Better Business Bureau's National Programs, and other non-profit organizations. These organizations identify perceived violations of laws and regulations by direct sellers in an effort to force companies to change their practices. If companies do not voluntarily modify practices identified by these reviewing entities, they may report the perceived violations to law enforcement agencies.

Settlements between the FTC and other direct selling companies and guidance from the FTC have addressed inappropriate earnings and lifestyle claims and the importance of focusing on consumer sales. These developments have created a level of ambiguity as to the proper interpretation of the law and related court decisions. Any adverse rulings or legal actions could impact our business if direct selling laws or anti-pyramid laws are interpreted more narrowly or in a manner that results in additional burdens or restrictions on direct selling companies. For example, in 2019, the FTC took aggressive actions against a multi-level marketing company, which ultimately led to the company being permanently prohibited from using a multilevel compensation plan in the United States. If our coaches make improper claims regarding our products or business, or if regulators determine we are making any improper claims, this could lead to an FTC investigation and could harm our business.

We continue to monitor developments to assess whether we should make any changes to our compensation structure. If we are required to make changes or if the FTC seeks to enforce similar measures in the industry, either through rulemaking or an enforcement action against us, our business could be harmed.

The FTC has also increased its scrutiny of the use of testimonials, which we also utilize, as well as the role of endorsers. We cannot be sure that the FTC will not challenge our advertising or other operations in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

In addition, our ability to sustain satisfactory levels of sales is dependent in significant part on our ability to introduce innovative products. However, governmental regulations can delay or prevent the introduction, or require the reformulation or withdrawal, of certain of our products. Any such regulatory action, whether or not it results in a final determination adverse to us, could create negative publicity, with detrimental effects on the motivation and recruitment of coaches and, consequently, on sales.

We could also be subject to challenges by private parties in civil actions. We are aware of recent civil actions against other companies in the United States that use a direct selling model, which have and may in the future result in significant legal costs. Allegations against companies that use a multi-level marketing strategy in various markets have also created intense public scrutiny of companies in the direct selling industry. Similarly, the FTC continues to scrutinize multi-level marketers. All of these actions and any future scrutiny of us or the direct selling industry could generate negative publicity or further regulatory actions that could result in fines, restrict our ability to conduct our business, enter into new markets, and ultimately attract clients.

Risks related to Artificial Intelligences

The development, adoption and use of artificial intelligence (“AI”) technologies are rapidly transforming the health and wellness industry, enabling faster data analysis and automation through machine learning and predictive modeling. Many of our competitors, including technology-enabled health platforms, pharmaceutical companies, and digitally native wellness providers, are investing heavily in AI-driven capabilities to enhance customer acquisition, personalization, pricing optimization, supply chain efficiency, product development, and marketing effectiveness. If we are unable to adopt and deploy AI effectively as quickly as our competitors, it may cause us to be relatively less productive or innovative, adversely impacting our

Table of Contents

competitiveness, our ability to effectively execute our strategic transformation and requiring additional investments that increase our costs.

Laws and regulations regarding AI are rapidly evolving as well, including in the areas of data privacy, cybersecurity, intellectual property, and data protections. Compliance with new or changing laws, regulations, or industry standards relating to AI may impose significant operational and financial burdens and may limit our ability to develop, deploy, or use AI in our business.

We rely on third parties to provide us with a majority of the products we sell and we manufacture the remaining portion. We also rely on third parties to distribute and deliver our products. The inability to obtain the necessary products from our third-party manufacturers, produce the products we manufacture in-house or distribute and deliver our products could cause our revenue, earnings or reputation to suffer.

We rely on third-party manufacturers to supply a majority of the food and other products we sell. If we are unable to obtain a sufficient quantity, quality and variety of foods and other products from these manufactures in a timely and low-cost manner, we will be unable to fulfill our clients’ orders in a timely manner, which may cause us to lose revenue and market share or incur higher costs, as well as damage our reputation and the value of our brands. We also rely on third-parties to distribute and deliver our products.

Therefore, it is critical that we maintain good relationships with our manufacturers and third parties that distribute and deliver our products. The services we require from these parties may be disrupted due to a number of factors associated with their businesses, including the following:

•public health crises, such as pandemics and epidemics;

•labor disruptions;

•delivery and transportation problems;

•financial condition or results of operations;

•internal inefficiencies;

•power failures;

•equipment failure;

•severe weather, climate and other adverse environmental conditions;

•fire;

•natural or man-made disasters, war, terrorism, or political instability;

•adverse changes in third-party contract terms;

•shortages or increases in prices of ingredients; and

•USDA or FDA compliance issues.

We manufacture and produce a portion of our products, which account for approximately 40% of our total unit sales, at our manufacturing facility in Owings Mills, Maryland. As a result, we are dependent upon the uninterrupted and efficient operation of this manufacturing facility. The operations at this facility may be disrupted by a number of factors, including the following:

•public health crises, such as pandemics and epidemics;

•labor disruptions;

•power failures;

•equipment failure;

•internal inefficiencies;

•severe weather, climate and other adverse environmental conditions;

•fire;

•natural or man-made disasters, war, terrorism, or political instability; and

•USDA or FDA compliance issues.

There can be no assurance that the occurrence of these or any other operational problems at our sole facility would not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Our ability to source quality ingredients and other products is critical to our business, and any disruption to our supply or supply chain could materially adversely affect our business.

We depend on frequent deliveries of ingredients and other products from domestic and foreign suppliers, especially for our non-powder products. Some of our suppliers may depend on a variety of other local, regional, national and international suppliers to fulfill the purchase orders we place with them. The availability of such ingredients and other products at competitive prices depends on many factors beyond our control, including the number and size of the suppliers that provide the raw materials that meet our quality and production standards.

We rely on our suppliers, and their supply chains, to meet our quality and production standards and specifications and supply ingredients and other products in a timely and safe manner. However, no safety and quality measures can eliminate the possibility that suppliers may provide us with defective or out-of-specification products against which regulators may take action or which may subject us to litigation or require a recall. Suppliers may provide us with ingredients that are or may be unsafe, below our quality standards or improperly labeled. In addition to a negative client experience, we could face possible seizure or recall of our products and the imposition of civil or criminal sanctions if we incorporate a defective or out-of-specification item into one of our deliveries.

Furthermore, there are many factors beyond our control which could cause shortages or interruptions in the supply of our ingredients and other products, including adverse weather, climate and environmental factors, natural disasters, unanticipated demand, labor or distribution problems, changes in law or policy, food safety issues by our suppliers and their supply chains, and the financial health of our suppliers and their supply chains. Production or yield of the agricultural crops that are used as ingredients in our products may also be materially adversely affected by drought, water scarcity, temperature extremes, scarcity of agricultural labor, changes in government agricultural programs or subsidies, import restrictions, scarcity of suitable agricultural land, crop conditions, crop or animal diseases or crop pests. Failure to take adequate steps to mitigate the likelihood or potential effect of such events, or to effectively manage such events if they occur, may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results, particularly in circumstances where an ingredient or product is sourced from a single supplier or location.

In addition, unexpected delays in deliveries from suppliers or increases in transportation costs (including through increased fuel costs) could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. Labor shortages or work stoppages in the transportation industry, long-term disruptions to the national transportation infrastructure, reduction in capacity and industry-specific regulations such as hours-of-service rules that lead to delays or interruptions of deliveries could also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.

We currently source certain of our ingredients from suppliers located outside of the United States. Any event causing a disruption or delay of imports from suppliers located outside of the United States, including weather, drought, crop-related diseases, the imposition of import or export restrictions, restrictions on the transfer of funds or increased tariffs, destination-based taxes, value-added taxes, quotas or increased regulatory requirements, could increase the cost or reduce the supply of our ingredients and the other materials required by our product offerings, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. Furthermore, our suppliers’ operations may be adversely affected by political and financial instability, resulting in the disruption of trade from exporting countries, restrictions on the transfer of funds or other trade disruptions, each of which could adversely affect our access or ability to source ingredients and other materials used in our product offerings on a timely or cost-effective basis.

We may be subject to claims that our coaches are unqualified to provide proper metabolic health and weight loss advice.

Our coaches are independent contractors and, accordingly, we are not in a position to provide the same level of oversight as we would if these coaches were our own employees. As a result, there can be no assurance that our coaches will comply with our policies and procedures. Additionally, most of our coaches do not have extensive training or certification in nutrition, diet or health fields and have only undergone the education they receive from us. We may be subject to claims from our clients alleging that our coaches lack the qualifications necessary to provide proper advice regarding metabolic health, weight loss, and related topics. We may also be subject to claims that our coaches have provided inappropriate advice or have failed to recommend clients consult with their health care providersduring the course of the clients’ metabolic health and weight loss journey, as recommended in the Company’s Medical Disclaimer. Such claims could result in lawsuits, damage to our reputation and divert management’s attention from our business, which would adversely affect our business.

Table of Contents

We may be subject to health or advertising related claims from our clients.

We do not engage physicians or nurses to monitor the progress of our clients. Many people who are overweight suffer from other physical conditions, and our target consumers could be considered a high-risk population. A client who experiences health problems could allege or bring a lawsuit against us on the basis that those problems were caused or worsened by participating in our programs, including outcomes based on interactions with our independent coaches. Further, clients who allege that they were deceived by any statements that we made in advertising or labeling could bring a lawsuit against us under consumer protection laws. From time-to-time we are subject to such allegations and have been involved in such litigation. We may ultimately be unsuccessful in defending ourselves against such claims. Also, defending ourselves against such claims, regardless of their merit and ultimate outcome, may be lengthy and costly, and could adversely affect our brand image, client loyalty and results of operations.

We are dependent on our key executives for future success. If we lose the services of any of our key executives and we are unable to timely retain a qualified replacement, our business could be harmed.

Our future success depends to a significant degree on the skills, experience and efforts of our key executives. The loss of the services of any of these individuals could harm our business, including the previously announced departure of Anthony Tyree, our former Chief Business Operations Officer and planned transition of Dan Chard, our Chief Executive Officer to non-executive Chairman of our Board of Directors, could harm our business. Leadership transitions can be inherently difficult to manage, and an inadequate transition may cause disruption to our business. In addition, we cannot provide assurances that key personnel, including our executive officers, will continue to be employed by us or that we will be able to attract and retain qualified personnel in the future.Failure to retain or attract key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Information Technology and Cyber Security Risks

Any failure of our technology or systems to perform satisfactorily could result in an adverse impact on our business.

We rely on software, hardware, network systems, including cloud-based technology, that is either developed by us or licensed from or maintained by third parties to operate our websites. As much of this technology is complex, there may be future errors, defects or performance problems, including when we update our technology or integrate new technology to expand and enhance our capabilities. Our technology may malfunction or suffer from defects that become apparent only after extended use. The integrity of our technology may also be compromised as a result of third-party cyber-attacks, such as hacking, spear phishing campaigns and denial of service attacks, which are increasingly negatively impacting companies. In addition, our operations depend on our ability to protect our information technology systems against damage from third-party cyber-attacks, fire, power loss, water, earthquakes, telecommunications failures, and similar unexpected adverse events. Interruptions in our websites, services and products, or network systems could result from unknown technical defects, insufficient capacity or the failure of our third-party providers to provide continuous and uninterrupted service. While we maintain disaster recovery capabilities to return to normal operation in a timely manner, we do not have a fully redundant system that includes an instantaneous recovery capability.

As a result of such possible defects, failures, interruptions or other problems, our services and products could be rendered unreliable or be perceived as unreliable by clients, which could result in harm to our reputation and brand. Any failure of our technology or systems could result in an adverse impact on our business.

Our business is subject to online security risks, including security breaches and identity theft.

Unauthorized users who penetrate our information security systems could misappropriate proprietary or client information or data or cause interruptions to the product offerings on our website. As a result, it may become necessary to expend significant additional amounts of capital and resources to protect against, or to alleviate, problems caused by unauthorized users. These expenditures, however, may not prove to be a timely remedy against unauthorized users who are able to penetrate our information security systems. In addition to purposeful security breaches, the inadvertent transmission of computer viruses could adversely affect our computer systems and, in turn, harm our business.

Existing, proposed or new data privacy legislation and regulations, including interpretations thereof, could also significantly affect our business. For example, data protection and privacy laws have been enacted by the U.S. federal and state governments, including the California Privacy Rights Act, which became effective on January 1, 2023 and replaced the previously established California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and other relevant statutes. These laws typically impose significant penalties for non-compliance. Further, a significant number of states require that clients be notified if a security breach results in the disclosure of their personal financial account or other information. Additional states and governmental entities are considering such “notice”

Table of Contents

laws. In addition, other public disclosure laws may require that material security breaches be reported. If we experience a security breach and such notice or public disclosure is required in the future, our reputation and our business may be harmed. The effects of these new and evolving laws, regulations, and other obligations potentially are far-reaching and may require us to further modify our data processing practices and policies and to incur substantial costs and expenses in an effort to comply.

In addition, if we choose to expand our business internationally in the future, we may be subject to international privacy, data protection, consumer protection and other laws and regulations, which in some cases are more restrictive than those in the United States. For example, the European Union traditionally has imposed stricter obligations under such laws than the United States. Consequently, any future expansion of our international operations may require changes to the ways we collect and use consumer information. In the ordinary course of our business, we collect and utilize proprietary and client information and data. As a result, we have developed systems that are designed to protect consumer information and prevent fraudulent transactions and other security breaches. Privacy concerns among prospective and existing clients regarding our use of such information or data collected on our website or through our services and products, such as weight management information, financial data, email addresses and home addresses, could keep them from using our website or purchasing our services or products. We currently face certain legal obligations regarding the manner in which we treat such information and data. Businesses have been criticized by privacy groups and governmental bodies for their use and handling of such information and data. We rely on third-party software products to secure our credit card transactions. Failure to prevent or mitigate fraudulent payment transactions or security breaches or changes in industry standards or regulations may adversely affect our business and operating results or cause us to lose our ability to accept credit cards as a form of payment and result in chargebacks of fraudulently charged amounts. Furthermore, widespread credit card fraud may lessen our clients’ willingness to purchase our products on our website.

Risks Related to Intellectual Property

Third parties may infringe on our brand, trademarks and other intellectual property rights, which may have an adverse impact on our business.

We currently rely on a combination of trademark and other intellectual property laws and confidentiality procedures to establish and protect our proprietary rights, including our brand. Because our business relies heavily on a direct-to-consumer business model, our brand is an important element of our business strategy. If we fail to successfully enforce our intellectual property rights, the value of our brand, services and products could be diminished and our business may suffer. Additionally, failure to protect our intellectual property could result in the entry of a competitor into the market. Our precautions may not prevent misappropriation of our intellectual property by state actors, competitors, or individuals or groups that are or are not affiliated with the Company. Any legal action that we may bring to protect our brand and other intellectual property could be unsuccessful and expensive and could divert management’s attention from other business concerns. In addition, legal standards relating to the validity, enforceability, and scope of protection of intellectual property, especially in Internet-related businesses, are uncertain and evolving. We cannot assure you that these evolving legal standards will sufficiently protect our intellectual property rights in the future.

We may in the future be subject to intellectual property rights claims.

Third parties may, in the future, make claims against us alleging infringement of their intellectual property rights. Any intellectual property claims, regardless of merit, could be time-consuming and expensive to litigate or settle and could significantly divert management’s attention from other business concerns. In addition, if we were unable to successfully defend against such claims, we may have to pay damages, stop selling the service or product or stop using the software, technology or content found to be in violation of a third-party’s rights, seek a license for the infringing service, product, software, technology or content or develop alternative non-infringing services, products, software, technology or content. If we cannot license on reasonable terms, develop alternatives or have to stop using the service, product, software, technology or content for any infringing aspects of our business, we may be forced to limit our service and product offerings. Any of these results could reduce our revenue and our ability to compete effectively, increase our costs or harm our business.

Risks Related to Our Industry

Changes in consumer preferences could negatively impact our operating results.

The metabolic health and weight management industry is subject to changing consumer demands based, in large part, on the efficacy and popular appeal of weight management programs. The popularity of weight management programs is dependent, in part, on their ease of use, cost and channels of distribution as well as consumer trends, which continue to evolve with the

Table of Contents

introduction of new technologies and innovations, and, on an ongoing basis, many existing and potential providers of metabolic health and weight loss solutions, including many pharmaceutical firms with significantly greater financial and operating resources than we have, are developing new products and services. The growing popularity of weight loss solutions, such as a drug therapy or GLP-1 medications, which may be perceived to be safe, effective and “easier” than a portion-controlled meal plan has affected the marketplace and could negatively impact our results of operations.

Changes in consumer tastes and preferences away from our pre-packaged food and support and coaching services, and any failure to provide innovative responses to these changes, may have a materially adverse impact on our business, financial condition, operating results, cash flows and prospects. Our success is also dependent on our food innovation including maintaining a robust array of food items and improving the quality of existing items. If we do not continually expand our food items or provide clients with items that are desirable in taste and quality, our business could be harmed. Additionally, we anticipate competition from other companies that provide telehealth services associated with weight management, and certain of these competitors have greater financial and other resources than us and have operations in therapeutic or other areas where we may seek to expand in the future.

The metabolic health and weight loss industry is subject to adverse publicity, which could harm our business.

The metabolic health and weight loss industry receives adverse publicity from time to time, and the occurrence of such publicity could harm us, even if the adverse publicity is not directly related to us. Congressional hearings about practices in the weight loss industry have also resulted in adverse publicity and a consequent decline in the revenue of weight loss businesses. Future research or investigative reports or publicity that is perceived as unfavorable or that question certain weight loss programs, products or methods could result in a decline in our revenue. Because of our dependence on consumer perceptions, adverse publicity associated with illness or other undesirable effects resulting from the consumption of our products or similar products by competitors, whether or not accurate, could also damage client confidence in our weight loss program and result in a decline in revenue. Adverse publicity could arise even if the unfavorable effects associated with weight loss products or services resulted from the user’s failure to use such products or services appropriately.

Our industry is subject to governmental regulation that could increase in severity and hurt results of operations.

Our industry is subject to federal, state, and other governmental regulations. Certain federal and state agencies, such as the FTC and the U.S. states’ consumer protection agencies, regulate and enforce laws relating to advertising, disclosures to consumers, privacy, consumer pricing and billing arrangements and other consumer protection matters. A determination by a federal or state agency, or a court, that any of our practices do not meet existing or new laws or regulations could result in liability, adverse publicity, and restrictions of our business operations. Some advertising practices in the weight loss industry have led to investigations from time to time by the FTC and other governmental agencies. Many companies in the weight loss industry, including our predecessor businesses, have entered into consent decrees with the FTC relating to weight loss claims and other advertising practices. In 2009, the FTC promulgated nonbinding Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising (“Endorsement Guides”) which explained what endorsement practices the FTC views as being unfair or deceptive acts or practices. In 2020, the FTC sought public comments on whether the Endorsement Guides should be amended. The last time the FTC sought similar public comments led to a major revision of the Endorsement Guides. Consequently, the FTC could bring an enforcement action based on practices that are inconsistent with the current Endorsement Guides as it considers revisions. Under the current Endorsement Guides, advertisements that feature a consumer and convey his or her atypical experience with a product or service are required to clearly disclose the typical results that consumers can generally expect. We cannot be sure that the FTC will not challenge our advertising or other operations in the future, which could have a material adverse impact on our business.

Other aspects of our industry are also subject to government regulation. For example, the labeling and distribution of food products, including dietary supplements, are subject to strict USDA and FDA requirements and food manufacturers are subject to rigorous inspection and other requirements of the USDA and FDA, and companies operating in foreign markets must comply with those countries’ requirements for proper labeling, controls on hygiene, food preparation, and other matters. If federal, state, local, or foreign regulation of our industry increases for any reason, then we may be required to incur significant expenses, as well as modify our operations to comply with new regulatory requirements, which could harm our operating results. Additionally, remedies available in any potential administrative or regulatory actions may include product recalls and require us to refund amounts paid by all affected clients or pay other damages, which could be substantial.

Laws and regulations directly applicable to communications, operations or commerce over the Internet such as those governing intellectual property, privacy, libel and taxation, are more prevalent and remain unsettled. If we are required to comply with

Table of Contents

new laws or regulations or new interpretations of existing laws or regulations, or if we are unable to comply with these laws, regulations, or interpretations, our business could be adversely affected.

Future laws or regulations, including laws or regulations affecting our marketing and advertising practices, relations with consumers, employees, service providers, or our services and products, may have an adverse impact on us.

The manufacture and sale of ingested products are subject to product liability claims and other risks.

Like other manufacturers and distributors of products that are ingested, we face an inherent risk of exposure to product liability claims if the use of our products results in illness or injury. The foods and products that we manufacture and sell in the United States are subject to laws and regulations, including those administered by the USDA and FDA that establish manufacturing practices and quality standards for food products. Product liability claims could have a material adverse effect on our business as existing insurance coverage may not be adequate. Distributors of weight loss food products, including dietary supplements, have been named as defendants in product liability lawsuits from time to time. The successful assertion or settlement of an uninsured claim, a significant number of insured claims or a claim exceeding the limits of our insurance coverage would harm us by adding costs to the business and by diverting the attention of senior management from the operation of the business. We may also be subject to claims that our products contain contaminants, are improperly labeled, include inadequate instructions as to use, or include inadequate warnings covering interactions with other substances. Additionally, the manufacture and sale of these products involves the risk of injury to consumers due to tampering by unauthorized third parties or product contamination. Product liability litigation, even if not meritorious, is very expensive and could also entail adverse publicity for us and reduce our revenue. Furthermore, the products we manufacture and distribute, or certain components of those products, may be subject to product recalls or other deficiencies. Any negative publicity associated with these actions would adversely affect our brand and may result in decreased product sales and, as a result, lower revenue and profits.

General Risk Factors

Actions of activist stockholders could cause us to incur substantial costs, divert management's attention and resources, and have an adverse effect on our business.

We have been the target of activist stockholder activities in the past. If a new activist investor purchased our stock, our business could be adversely affected because responding to proxy contests and reacting to other actions by activist stockholders can be costly and time-consuming, disruptive to our operations and divert the attention of management and our employees. In addition, perceived uncertainties as to our future direction, strategy or leadership created as a consequence of activist stockholder initiatives may result in the loss of potential business opportunities, harm our ability to attract new investors, clients, employees, suppliers and other strategic partners, and cause our share price to experience periods of volatility or stagnation.

There can be no assurance that we will declare cash dividends in the future or in any particular amounts.

On December 13, 2023, we announced that the Company updated its capital allocation priorities following a thorough review, and decided to discontinue the Company’s quarterly cash dividend. Our Board of Directors periodically reviews our capital allocation strategy to ensure that it is in the best interest of our stockholders and is in compliance with all applicable laws and agreements. Our capital allocation strategy may change from time to time, and we cannot provide any assurance that we will declare dividends in the future or in any particular amounts.

Our stock price fluctuates from time to time and may fall below expectations of securities analysts and investors, and could subject us to litigation, which may result in you suffering a loss on your investment.

The market price of the Company’s common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, many of which are out of our control. These factors include: quarterly variations in operating results; changes in accounting treatments or principles; announcements by us or our competitors of new products and services offerings; significant contracts, acquisitions, or strategic relationships; additions or departures of key personnel; any future sales of the Company’s common stock or other securities; stock market price and volume fluctuations of publicly-traded companies; and general political, economic and market conditions. In some future quarter our operating results may fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors, which could result in a decrease in the trading price of the Company’s common stock. In the past, securities class action litigation has often been brought against a company following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities. We may be the target of similar litigation in the future. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and divert management's attention and resources, which could seriously harm our business and operating results.

Provisions in our certificate of incorporation may deter or delay an acquisition of us or prevent a change in control, even if an acquisition or a change of control would be beneficial to our stockholders.

Provisions of our certificate of incorporation (as amended) may have the effect of deterring unsolicited takeovers or delaying or preventing a third-party from acquiring control of us, even if our stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over the then current market prices. In addition, these provisions may limit the ability of our stockholders to approve transactions that they may deem to be in their best interests.

Our certificate of incorporation (as amended) permits our Board of Directors to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval upon such terms as the Board of Directors may determine. The rights of the holders of the Company’s common stock will be junior to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of any preferred stock that may be issued in the future. The issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third-party to acquire, or discourage a third-party from acquiring, a majority of the Company's outstanding common stock. The issuance of a substantial number of preferred shares could adversely affect the price of the Company’s common stock.

If we do not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, we could fail to report our financial results accurately.

Effective internal control over financial reporting is necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports. In the future, if we identify a control deficiency that rises to the level of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, this material weakness may adversely affect our ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information timely and accurately and, as a result, our financial statements may contain material misstatements or omissions. If we fail to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, we could be required to take costly and time-consuming corrective measures, to remedy any number of deficiencies, significant deficiencies or material weaknesses, be required to restate the affected historical financial statements, be subjected to investigations and/or sanctions by federal and state securities regulators, and be subjected to civil lawsuits by security holders. Any of the foregoing could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and in our Company and could result in a decline in the market price of our stock and in our ability to raise additional financing if needed in the future.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

Overview

Organizations across the globe are experiencing cybersecurity incidents at an increasing rate, and cybersecurity threats are increasingly sophisticated and constantly evolving. We have developed and maintained policies, procedures, and controls to mitigate material risks from cybersecurity threats, and assess and disclose information to investors concerning material cybersecurity incidents. These risks are evaluated on an ongoing basis as part of our overall risk management strategy. As discussed in more detail below, we have policies and procedures in place to safeguard our information systems, monitor these systems, protect the confidentiality and integrity of our data, train and raise awareness of cybersecurity threats amongst employees, detect intrusions into our systems, and respond to cybersecurity incidents. Despite these efforts, no system is impenetrable, and we cannot provide assurances that we will prevent every attack or detect every incident timely.

Risk Management and Strategy

We have established processes for assessing, identifying, and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats and have integrated these cybersecurity processes into our overall risk management system. Specifically, we have adopted a cybersecurity framework that, where appropriate, aligns with the NIST's Cybersecurity Framework, and we have maintained systems that, where appropriate, are PCI compliant under current standards.

We regularly review our Incident Response Plans to ensure readiness if and when an incident does occur, including through live testing via planned and surprise tabletop exercises. In the event of a cybersecurity incident, if a system does become non-operational, we maintain disaster recovery capabilities to return to normal operation in a timely manner.

Table of Contents

Our cybersecurity processes to assess and identify cybersecurity risks includes periodic risk assessments, deployment of security monitoring tools for continuous monitoring of our information systems, periodic testing for vulnerabilities in our systems, periodic testing of employees’ cybersecurity awareness, receiving cybersecurity alerts, among other procedures. Our Information Security (“IS”) department, which reports to the Vice President, Information Security, evaluates cybersecurity risks and works to design and ensure implementation of appropriate controls and safeguards in alignment with our business objectives and operational needs. Management periodically reviews cybersecurity risks as part of the overall risks to the Company as part of the enterprise risk management program. This review helps in identifying areas for improvement and ensuring the alignment of cybersecurity efforts with the overall risk management framework.

We engage various third parties to assess, test, or assist with the implementation of our risk management strategies, policies, and procedures to enhance our detection and management of cybersecurity risks, including but not limited to: consultants who assist with assessing risks, assist with our PCI compliance assessments, assess our systems alignment with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, and test and/or scan for vulnerabilities.

We rely on software, hardware, and network systems, including cloud-based technology, that are either developed by us or licensed from or maintained by third parties to maintain operations. In the ordinary course of our business, we collect and utilize proprietary and client information and data. We utilize systems designed to protect client information and prevent fraudulent transactions and other security breaches. We rely on third-party software products to secure our credit card transactions.

Furthermore, we maintain a process to evaluate and manage risks associated with third-party service providers. We conduct cybersecurity assessments of our key vendors before engagement, maintain continued monitoring during the engagement, and maintain the ability to discontinue our engagement with a key vendor if their cybersecurity posture fails to meet pre-established standards.

The Company, from time to time, experiences or is subject to a variety of incidents that arise during the ordinary course of its business. As of the date of this report and based upon the Company’s experience, current information, and applicable laws, we do not believe that these incidents are material, or will have or have had a material adverse effect on business strategy, results of operations, or financial position. However, future cybersecurity incidents could materially affect our strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. See Item 1A. Risk Factors for additional information on how risks could materially affect the Company.

Governance

The Board of Directors has responsibility for oversight and approval of our cybersecurity risk management processes, and the Board has established an oversight mechanism for cybersecurity risks.

Senior executives provide the Board of Directors with quarterly updates concerning cybersecurity risks and the Company’s cybersecurity strategies and objectives. In addition, members of management briefed on specific issues attend Board meetings to provide additional insight into the specific issues being discussed, including risk exposure.

The Board works with our senior executives in reviewing the cybersecurity risks and strategy, provides guidance on the Company’s cybersecurity goals and objectives, and monitors the information it receives from management regarding the assessment and management of cybersecurity risk. If a significant cybersecurity incident occurs, it will be reported promptly to the Board near the time of discovery.

The IS department is charged with monitoring risks, implementing controls, developing information security policies and procedures, and assessing cyber events. On a day-to-day basis, IS informs the Vice President, Information Security concerning cybersecurity risks and events, including any mitigation and remediation efforts. Our Vice President, Information Security joined the Company in September 2022, and is responsible for approving IS policies and procedures, implementing controls, monitoring and detection programs, and employee training on cybersecurity risks, and reports cybersecurity risks and strategies directly to executive leadership. He has over a decade of security experience, received his Master of Science in Computer Information and Information Systems Security/Information Assurance from Norwich University, and holds various certifications including Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) and Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP).

Cybersecurity incidents are escalated to the cybersecurity incident response team ("CIRT") who is responsible for overseeing our incident response strategy, including remediation. Significant cybersecurity incidents are escalated to the Company’s Incident Response Materiality Assessment Committee (“IRMAC”) that assesses and evaluates whether the incident is material

Table of Contents

using criteria based on our enterprise risks. This committee is comprised of a cross-functional team that consists, in part, of employees at the management level and members of the executive team. As noted above, if a significant cybersecurity incident occurs, it will be reported promptly to the Board on an ad hoc and as-needed basis. Otherwise, management reports cybersecurity risks and developments to the Board quarterly.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

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.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management develops, and changes periodically, these estimates and assumptions based on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management considers the following accounting policies to be the most critical in preparing our consolidated financial statements. These critical accounting policies have been discussed with our Audit Committee, as appropriate.

Revenue Recognition: Our revenue is derived primarily from point of sale transactions executed over an e-commerce platform for weight loss, weight management, and other healthy living products. Revenue is recognized upon delivery to the shipping carrier and net of discounts, rebates, promotional adjustments, price adjustments, allocated consideration to loyalty programs, and estimated returns.

Our return policy allows for customer returns of consumable products from the time of order until 30 days following the date of receipt, and upon our authorization. We adjust revenues for the products expected to be returned and a liability is recognized for expected refunds to customers. We estimate expected returns based on historical levels and project this experience into the future.

Our sales contracts may give customers the option to purchase additional products priced at a discount. Options to acquire additional products at a discount can come in many forms, such as customer reward programs and incentive offerings including pricing arrangements, and promotions.

We reduce the transaction price for customer reward programs and certain incentive offerings including pricing arrangements, promotions, and incentives that represent variable consideration and separate performance obligations. The Company allocates consideration between the initial sale of products and the customer reward program and incentive offering. The Company discontinued its reward program in July 2025.

Amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling activities are treated as a promised service performance obligation and are recorded as revenue in our Consolidated Statements of Operations upon fulfillment of the performance obligation. Shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company for the delivery of products to customers are considered a cost to fulfill the contract and are included in cost of sales in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

We expense coach compensation and credit card fees during the period in which the corresponding revenue is earned. These costs are recorded in selling, general and administrative expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Long-lived Asset Impairment: Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.

Income Taxes: Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Table of Contents

The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the consolidated financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more-likely-than-not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in our Consolidated Balance Sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination.

Our policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on uncertain tax positions as part of income tax expense.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - 2025 COMPARED TO 2024

The following table reflects our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands, except percentages):

Other income

% of revenue

Selling, general, and administrative 75.0% 73.3%

Income (loss) from operations (3.7)% 0.5%

Revenue: Revenue decreased $216.7 million, or 36.0%, to $385.8 million in 2025 from $602.5 million in 2024. The year-over-year decline in revenue was primarily driven by a decrease in the number of active earning coaches. The total number of active earning coaches for the three months ended December 31, 2025 decreased to 16,100 from 27,100 for the corresponding period in 2024, a decrease of 40.6%. The number of active earning coaches has been trending downward year-over-year since the first quarter of 2023. The decrease in the number of active earning coaches was driven by continued pressure with client acquisition reflecting broader challenges in the operating environment, including rapid adoption of GLP-1 medications for weight loss. The average revenue per active earning coach increased 6.2% to $4,664 for the three months ended December 31, 2025 from $4,391 for the three months ended December 31, 2024. The increase in the revenue per active earning coach for the quarter was driven by greater alignment of our network of coaches, prioritizing productive coaches and efficient coach network structures.

Costs of sales: Cost of sales decreased $47.2 million, or 29.9%, to $110.6 million in 2025 from $157.8 million in 2024. The decrease in cost of sales was primarily driven by an approximately $54.9 million decrease due to lower sales volumes and a $2.6 million decrease due to restructuring of external manufacturing agreements that did not recur in 2025, partially offset by $8.0 million of loss of leverage on fixed costs and $3.0 million of inventory reserves which are primarily related to the reformulation of the Essential product line.

Gross profit: In 2025, gross profit decreased $169.4 million, or 38.1%, to $275.2 million from $444.6 million in 2024. The decrease in gross profit was primarily attributable to lower revenue. As a percentage of sales, gross profit decreased 250 basis points to 71.3% for 2025 from 73.8% for 2024 primarily driven by the loss of leverage on fixed costs.

Selling, general and administrative: Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $289.4 million in 2025, a decrease of $152.3 million, or 34.5%, as compared to $441.7 million in 2024, primarily due to a $85.1 million decrease in

coach compensation due to lower sales volumes and a decrease in the number of active earning coaches, a $13.4 million decrease in company-led marketing related expenses, a $12.5 million decrease for supply chain optimization that did not recur in 2025, a $9.3 million net decrease in employee compensation resulting from the realignment of the employee base to lower revenue levels partially offset by one-time restructuring charges, a $7.5 million decrease for medically supported weight loss expenses that did not recur in 2025, and a $5.7 million decrease in coach event costs. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses were 75.0% for 2025 as compared to 73.3% for 2024, primarily due to 340 basis points of loss of leverage on fixed costs and 300 basis points of loss of leverage on employee compensation, partially offset by a 200 basis point decrease due to supply chain optimization that did not recur in 2025, 130 basis points of reduced company-led marketing related expenses, and 120 basis points of medically supported weight loss expenses that did not recur in 2025. SG&A expenses included research and development costs of $4.3 million and $4.6 million for 2025 and 2024, respectively, in connection with the development of new products and programs and clinical research activities.

Income (loss) from operations: Income (loss) from operations in 2025 decreased $17.1 million to a $14.2 million loss from operations, compared to income from operations of $2.9 million in 2024 primarily as a result of decreased gross profit, partially offset by decreased SG&A expenses. Income (loss) from operations as a percentage of sales decreased to a 3.7% loss from operations as a percentage of revenue for 2025 as compared to 0.5% income from operations as a percentage of revenue for 2024 due to the factors described above in the explanations for gross profit and SG&A expenses.

Other income: Other income was $8.6 million in 2025, an increase of $7.7 million, as compared to other income of $0.9 million for the corresponding period in 2024 primarily attributable to the change in the market value of the Company's investment in LifeMD common stock. The Company sold its investment in LifeMD during the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Provision for income taxes: For 2025, the Company recorded $13.0 million in income tax expense, an effective tax rate of negative 231.1%, as compared to $1.7 million in income tax expense and an effective tax rate of 44.8%, for 2024. The decrease in the effective tax rate for 2025 as compared to 2024 was primarily driven by the 214.0% impact of a valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset balance, the 34.5% impact of the tax shortfall from stock compensation, and the 23.5% impact of state taxes, partially offset by the 26.2% increase from the impact of research and development tax credits, all of which were magnified by the loss position in the current period versus the near breakeven income position in the prior year.

Net income (loss): Net loss was $18.7 million, or a loss of $1.70 per diluted share, in 2025 as compared to income of $2.1 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, in 2024. The period-over-period changes were driven by the factors described above in the explanations from operations, other income, and provision for income taxes.

Additionally, refer to Item 7: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 for management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations for the fiscal year 2024 compared to fiscal year 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company had stockholders’ equity of $198.9 million and working capital of $158.7 million at December 31, 2025 compared with $210.1 million and $150.2 million at December 31, 2024. The $11.2 million net decrease in stockholders’ equity reflects the $18.7 million net loss for 2025 and $7.6 million for shared-based compensation offset by other equity transactions described in the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity included in our consolidated financial statements included in this report. The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and investment securities increased to $167.3 million at December 31, 2025 from $162.3 million at December 31, 2024. In December 2023, the Company’s board of directors determined to change the Company’s capital allocation priorities and discontinued the Company’s quarterly cash dividend to support investments in technology and future growth. The decision to declare and pay dividends in the future will depend on general business conditions, the effect of such payments on our financial condition and other factors the Company’s board of directors consider relevant.

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $17.6 million to $6.9 million for 2025 from $24.5 million for 2024 primarily as a result of a $20.8 million decrease in net income and adjustments to reconcile net income to cash provided by operating activities.

Net cash used in investing activities was $7.9 million for 2025 as compared to $26.5 million for 2024. This year-over-year change resulted primarily from a $54.6 million increase in proceeds from sale and maturities of investment securities partially offset by a $37.8 million increase in purchases of investment securities for 2025 as compared to 2024.

Table of Contents

Net cash used in financing activities decreased $1.0 million to $0.6 million for 2025 from $1.5 million for 2024. This decrease was primarily due to $0.5 million decrease in cash dividends paid to stockholders and a $0.5 million decrease in net shares repurchased for employee taxes for 2025 as compared to 2024.

The Company is currently investing in new growth initiatives which have the potential to impact liquidity in future periods. The Company’s current growth initiatives, which are focused on advancing its breakthrough science and product offerings that reverses metabolic dysfunction, are variable in nature and will be scaled at the discretion of management. We do not believe there is any significant impact on our liquidity or capital resources.

In pursuing its business strategy, the Company may require additional cash for operating and investing activities. The Company expects future cash requirements, if any, to be funded from operating cash flow and financing activities.

From time to time the Company evaluates potential acquisitions that complement our business. If consummated, any such transactions may use a portion of our working capital or require the issuance of equity or debt. We have no present understandings, commitments or agreements with respect to any material acquisitions.

On October 30, 2024, the Company terminated its Amended Credit Agreement with Citibank, N.A. The Company had no borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement, inclusive of the credit facility and letter of credit sublimit as of the termination date.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

The Company had the following contractual obligations with a remaining term in excess of one year as of December 31, 2025 (in thousands):

____________________

(a)The Company has operating leases in place for leased corporate offices, warehouses, and certain equipment.

(b)The Company has unconditional purchase obligations primarily for inventories, consulting services, insurance, and outsourced information technology.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates and a decline in the stock market. The Company does not enter into derivatives, foreign exchange transactions or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes other than strategic investments.

The Company is exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates and market pricing impacting our investment in money market securities, government and agency securities, and corporate bonds. Other than for strategic investments, its current investment policy is to maintain an investment portfolio consisting of corporate bonds and U.S. money market securities directly or through managed funds. Its cash is deposited in and invested through highly rated financial institutions in North America. Its marketable securities are subject to interest rate risk and market pricing risk and will fall in value if market interest rates increase or if market pricing decreases. If market interest rates were to increase and market pricing were to decrease immediately and uniformly by 10% from levels at December 31, 2025, the Company estimates that the fair value of its investment portfolio would decline by an immaterial amount and therefore it would not expect its operating results or cash flows to be affected to any significant degree by the effect of a change in market conditions on our investments.

Prior to the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the Company was exposed to market risk related to price fluctuations in equity markets related to its investment in LifeMD common stock, purchased in December of 2023. The Company sold its investment in LifeMD during the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Other than the sale of LifeMD common stock, there have been no other material changes to our market risk exposure since December 31, 2024.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Medifast, Inc.

Opinion on the Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We have audited Medifast, Inc.’s (the Company) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013. In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements of the Company and our report dated February 17, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Medifast, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Medifast, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013, and our report dated February 17, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Income Taxes

As described in Notes 2 and 11 of the financial statements, the Company operates in multiple markets in the U.S. using an e‐commerce platform and a direct selling network of OPTAVIA coaches. Management prepared the Company’s provision for income taxes using significant judgment when interpreting the provisions of federal, state and local tax regulations. Significant judgment is placed on both the assessment of whether it is more likely than not that some or all the Company's deferred tax assets will be realized and whether the amount of benefit recorded would more likely than not be sustained upon examination. As disclosed in Note 11 of the financial statements, the Company recorded a valuation allowance of $12.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2025 and as of December 31, 2025, the Company had $5.6 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits.

We identified the evaluation of the Company’s provision for income taxes as a critical audit matter due to the significant judgments made by management when assessing the complex provisions of the tax laws and regulations. Auditing the matter

Table of Contents

required significant auditor judgment and increased audit effort, including use of our tax specialists, in evaluating the recorded results of management’s tax positions and their assessment of the sustainability of these tax positions.

Our audit procedures related to the Company’s provision for income taxes included the following, among others:

•We obtained an understanding of the relevant controls related to the determination of current and deferred taxes and tested such controls for design and operating effectiveness, including controls related to the interpretation and application of tax laws.

•We evaluated the reasonableness of management's estimates in regard to the ability to realize deferred tax assets by testing management's assessment of the ability to generate sufficient taxable income and the timing of future reversals of temporary differences.

•We utilized personnel with specialized knowledge and skill in income taxes and accounting for income taxes:

◦to assist in the evaluation of management's assessment of positive and negative evidence and their conclusion that it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize the benefit of its deferred tax assets.

◦to assist in evaluating the application and sustainability of federal regulations and state and local tax positions.

•We tested the accuracy and completeness of the data and inputs used to calculate the effective federal and state tax rates, current provision calculations and deferred tax assets and liabilities.

MEDIFAST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Years Ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023

1.NATURE OF THE BUSINESS

Medifast, Inc. (the “Company” or “Medifast”) is a Delaware corporation, incorporated in 1989. The Company’s operations are primarily conducted through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Jason Pharmaceuticals, Inc., OPTAVIA LLC, Jason Enterprises, Inc., Jason Properties, LLC, OPTAVIA (Hong Kong) Limited, and OPTAVIA Health Consultation (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. Medifast is the health and wellness company known for its habit-based and coach-guided lifestyle solution OPTAVIA. The Company has one modern, United States Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) approved manufacturing facility located in Owings Mills, Maryland.

Medifast sells a variety of weight loss, weight management and healthy living products all based on our proprietary formulas under the Essential Fuelings, OPTAVIA ASCEND, and OPTAVIA ACTIVE categories. The Company’s product line includes approximately 74 consumable options, including, but not limited to, bars, cereal, snack straws, hot chocolate, hearty choices, oatmeal, pancakes, pudding, soft serve, shakes, smoothies, soft bakes, and soups. Medifast’s nutritional products are formulated with high-quality ingredients. The processing, formulation, packaging, labeling and advertising of the Company’s products are subject to regulation by one or more federal agencies, including the FDA, the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”), the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the United States Department of Agriculture, and the United States Environmental Protection Agency.

2.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s fiscal year ends on December 31.

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.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on deposit in financial institutions, institutional money market funds and other short-term investments with a maturity of 90 days or less at the time of purchase. All credit card and debit card transactions that process in less than seven days are classified as cash and cash equivalents. The amounts due from banks for these transactions classified as cash and cash equivalents totaled $3.1 million as of December 31, 2025 and $4.8 million as of December 31, 2024.

Concentration of Credit Risk - Our cash and cash equivalents and available-for-sale debt securities are maintained at several financial institutions and the balances with these financial institutions often exceed the amount of insurance provided on such accounts by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The cash and cash equivalents generally are maintained with financial institutions with reputable credit, and therefore bear minimal credit risk. Historically, we have not experienced any losses due to such concentration of credit risk.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, and investments in debt and equity securities. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value due to their short maturities. The fair value of investments in available-for-sale debt securities are based on third-party pricing services provided by the Company’s investment advisory firm. The fair value of investments in equity securities with readily determinable fair values are based on the closing price on the last trading day of the period from the applicable exchange.

Table of Contents

Inventories - Inventories consist principally of raw materials and packaged meal replacements held in the Company’s warehouses and outsourced distribution center. 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.

Investments - The Company’s investments consist of debt securities classified as available-for-sale securities and equity investments with readily determinable fair values.

Available-for-sale debt securities are stated at fair value and unrealized holding gains and losses, net of the related deferred tax effect, are reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity. Interest and dividends on marketable debt securities are recognized in income when declared. Realized gains and losses, if any, are included in income.

Equity investments with readily determinable fair values are those securities in which the Company has no control or significant influence and is not the primary beneficiary. The securities are stated at fair value based on a quoted market price per unit in active markets multiplied by the number of units held without consideration of transaction costs (Level 1). Gains and losses are recorded in other income (expense), net on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Property, Plant, and Equipment - Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The Company computes depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets acquired as follows:

Building and building improvements 10 - 35 years

Leasehold improvements (1) Lease term

Equipment and fixtures 3 - 15 years

Software (2) 2 - 5 years

Vehicles 5 years

(1)The depreciation life for leasehold improvements is the lesser of the estimated useful life or the term of the related lease.

(2)Capitalized costs of cloud software are reported in Other assets on the consolidated balance sheet and are amortized over an estimated useful life of 2 to 5 years.

Long-lived Asset Impairment - Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.

Revenue Recognition - Our revenue is derived primarily from point-of-sale transactions executed over an e-commerce platform for weight loss, weight management, and other healthy living products. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised products is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for transferring those products. When determining whether the customer has obtained control of the products, we consider any future performance obligations.

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer, and is the unit of account in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, each performance obligation is satisfied. Our contracts have performance obligations to fulfill and deliver products from the point of sale transaction along with the related customer reward programs.

Our performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time. Revenue from products transferred to customers at a point in time accounted for substantially all of our revenue for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023. Revenue on these contracts is recognized when the obligations under the terms of the contract with our customer are satisfied.

Table of Contents

Sales returns

Customer reward programs and sales incentives

We reduce the transaction price for certain customer reward programs and incentive offerings including pricing arrangements, promotions, and incentives that represent variable consideration and separate performance obligations. The Company accounts for sales rewards that provide the customer with a material right as a separate performance obligation of the transactions, and therefore allocates consideration between the initial sale of products and the customer reward program and incentive offering. The Company discontinued its reward program in July 2025.

Shipping and handling costs

Amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling activities are treated as a promised service performance obligation and are recorded in revenue in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations upon fulfillment of the performance obligation. Shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company for the delivery of products to customers are considered a cost to fulfill the contract and are included in cost of sales in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Contract costs

Leases - The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception and categorizes leases with contractual terms longer than twelve months as either operating or finance. All the Company’s leases are operating leases. The right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent an obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit interest rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The ROU asset also consists of any prepaid lease payments and lease incentives received. The lease terms used to calculate the ROU asset and related lease liability include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term as an operating expense.

Advertising Costs - Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. They are recorded in selling, general, and administrative expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. Advertising expense, excluding agency fees, for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, amounted to $7.5 million, $14.1 million and $3.4 million, respectively.

Research and Development - The Company incurs research and development costs in connection with the development of new products and programs and clinical research activities, which are expensed as incurred. They are recorded in selling, general, and administrative expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company incurred $4.3 million, $4.6 million, $4.6 million in research and development expense for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Share-Based Compensation - Share-based compensation consists primarily of restricted stock awards, performance-based share awards, and stock options granted to employees and directors. Restricted stock awards are measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and are recognized as an expense over the requisite service period. Performance-based share awards are measured based on the grant-date market price of the Company's common stock adjusted by expected level of achievement over the performance period. Market and performance-based share awards that are tied to the Company's total stockholder return ("TSR") are valued using the Monte Carlo method. The fair value of the incentive stock

Table of Contents

options and non-qualified stock options is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model as of the grant date and recognized over the service period.

Income Taxes - Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Deferred income tax assets represent amounts available to reduce income taxes payable on taxable income in future years. Such assets arise because of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, as well as from net operating losses, capital losses, and tax credit carryforwards. We evaluate the realizability of our deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis to determine whether a valuation allowance is necessary and reduce such assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. This evaluation requires significant judgment and involves the consideration of all available positive and negative evidence, including our historical operating results, the existence of cumulative losses in recent years, ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies, and projections of future taxable income.

The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the consolidated financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more-likely-than-not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination.

Our policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on uncertain tax positions as part of income tax expense.

For 2025, the Company recorded $13.0 million in income tax expense, an effective tax rate of negative 231.1%, as compared to $1.7 million in income tax expense and an effective tax rate of 44.8%, for 2024. The decrease in the effective tax rate for 2025 as compared to 2024 was primarily driven by the 214.0% impact of the valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset balance, the 34.5% impact of the tax shortfall from stock compensation, and the 23.5% impact of state taxes, partially offset by the 26.2% increase from the impact of research and development tax credits, all of which were magnified by the loss position in the current period versus the near breakeven income position in the prior year.

On July 4, 2025, the tax legislation commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was signed into law, to provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14. The provisions of the OBBBA do not significantly impact the Company’s effective tax rate but do impact timing items such as deductibility of research and development (“R&D”) costs and deductibility of newly acquired fixed assets.

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

Comprehensive Income - Other comprehensive income refers to revenues, expenses, and gains and losses that are not included in net income but rather are recorded directly in stockholders’ equity. Comprehensive income consists of net income, unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale debt securities, and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Accounting Pronouncements - Adopted in 2025

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2023-09—Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures 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.

Issuance of Additional Common Stock

The stockholders of the Company approved the Medifast, Inc. Amended and Restated 2012 Share Incentive Plan (the “Amended and Restated 2012 Plan”) that increased the number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be awarded under the Amended and Restated 2012 Plan by 0.6 million and 0.5 million on June 18, 2025 and June 19, 2024, respectively, resulting in an aggregate of 2.7 million and 2.1 million shares available for issuance under the Amended and Restated 2012 Plan as of these dates.

Stock Repurchase Plan

The Company implemented a stock repurchase plan on September 16, 2014 (the “Stock Repurchase Plan”). On September 12, 2019, the Company's Board of Directors authorized an additional 2.0 million shares for repurchase under the Stock Repurchase Plan. The Company did not repurchase any shares during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, there were approximately 1.3 million shares of common stock remaining under the Company’s Stock Repurchase Plan. There is no guarantee as to the exact number of shares of the Company’s common stock, if any, that will be repurchased under the Stock Repurchase Plan.

8.SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock Options:

The Company has issued non-qualified and incentive stock options to employees and non-employee directors. The fair value of these options were estimated on the date of grant 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 December 31, 2025 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 years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not grant stock options.

The number of stock options and weighted-average exercise prices as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 are as follows:

Awards Weighted-Average Exercise Price Awards Weighted-Average Exercise Price

(awards in thousands)

As of December 31, 2025, the weighted-average remaining contractual life for both outstanding and exercisable stock options was 2.1 years with an aggregate intrinsic value of $0. There was no unrecognized compensation on the awards for the period ended December 31, 2025. The Company received $0 thousand, $36 thousand, and $188 thousand in cash proceeds from the exercise of stock options during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2025,2024, and 2023 was $0 thousand, $15 thousand, and $440 thousand, respectively.

Restricted Stock:

The Company has granted restricted stock under the 2012 Plan 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. A summary of outstanding restricted stock activity as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 are as follows:

(shares in thousands)

The Company withheld approximately 27 thousand, 11 thousand, 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 years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The total fair value of restricted stock awards vested during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 was $1.1 million, $1.3 million, and $8.3 million, respectively.

Market and Performance-based Share Awards:

The Company has granted market and performance-based share awards in 2022, 2023 and 2025 and performance-based share awards in 2020, 2021, and 2024 under the 2012 Plan to certain key executives who were granted deferred shares and may earn between 0% and 211% 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 a three-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 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 reversed previously recorded share-based compensation expenses after determining that market and performance-based share awards grants in March 2022, 2023, and 2024 would not meet predetermined performance goals. Specifically, $1.4 million was reversed for 2022 awards in December 2023, $1.4 million for 2023 awards in September 2024, and $1.2 million for 2024 awards in September 2025. The Company continues to record stock-based compensation expense on the performance-based share awards granted in March of 2023 and March of 2024 at the revised performance factor over the life of the awards.

No market and performance-based share awards were issued during the year ended December 31, 2025, as a result of the market and performance-based share awards granted in March of 2022 not reaching the lower threshold of the predetermined performance goals. The total fair value of market and performance-based share awards issued during the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $1.3 million and $5.7 million, respectively. The Company withheld approximately 8 thousand and 22 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 years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Share-based compensation expense for all types of awards is recorded in selling, general, and administrative expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. The total expenses during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 are as follows (in thousands):

10.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 ongoing 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.

On July 4, 2025, tax legislation entitled an Act to provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14 (“the “Act”) and commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”). The primary provisions of the Act do not impact the Company’s effective tax rate but do impact the timing of tax deductions related to research and development costs and fixed asset expenditures after January 19, 2025.

Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to utilize our existing deferred tax assets. A significant piece of objective negative evidence evaluated is our current year loss, declining financial performance in recent years, and our projections of short-term future losses. Such objective evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as our projections for future growth. We have determined that the reversal of future taxable temporary differences corresponding to our deferred tax liabilities will provide a sufficient source of income for realization of a portion of our deferred tax assets. In 2025, we recorded an additional valuation allowance of $12.1 million.
