“Our second quarter performance demonstrates that our efforts to stabilize operations, revamp channel strategy, and instill greater financial governance are taking shape. We believe there is significant runway for increased Halo growth at both Chewy and Amazon as we continue to shift our investment, move to full funnel activation, and improve our storytelling and share of voice,” commented Chief Executive Officer, Kent Cunningham. “We see increased opportunity for the Halo brand across the roughly $50 billion US & Canada pet food markets and the $30 billion represented across the Asia-Pacific region. Halo sits at the intersection of the two megatrends fueling market growth: Humanization and Premiumization. Whether the pet parent is a clean food consumer seeking all-natural nutrition that is minimally processed and responsibly sourced, or seeking a dietary solution to address allergies, skin and coat issues, digestive or other health concerns, Halo provides products that deliver visible results.”
Nina Martinez, Chief Financial Officer, also commented, “The company’s positive financial results are a testament to the strong underlying performance and operating leverage we are seeing in the business. The sales momentum and significant adjusted EBITDA^1^improvement we saw in the second quarter truly reflect our strategic pivots are working. Our International channel generated 27% top line growth from the first quarter, and 7% year-to-date growth YOY. Our Digital channel, comprising of our E-commerce platforms and legacy Direct-to-Consumer channel, generated 11% topline growth as the Halo brand gains momentum domestically as well. The YOY topline softness was expected internally as we have made purposeful strategic exits of several unprofitable brick and mortar customers, as well as the closing of our legacy Halo Pets Direct-to-Consumer channel that was trending as a double digit negative EBITDA^1^ channel. While these actions negatively impacted our YOY topline, the positive impact to our bottom line was critical as we significantly improved the financial shape of the business and we are beating all internal targets. Supplier input costs are coming down and we are unlocking profit through global volumes, as is reflected in our gross margin improvement. We’ve tightened operating expenses and have unlocked significant profit levers through the channel strategy shifts. Our ability to improve working capital, improve margins, and accelerate free cash flow provide confidence in our ability to deliver on our near and long-term goals.”
^1^Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and to net income (loss), the most directly comparableGAAP financial measure, is set forth in the reconciliation table accompanying this release.

Non-GAAPMeasures
AdjustedEBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA further adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our core operations. Adjusted EBITDA is determined by adding the following items to net (loss) income: interest expense, tax expense, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, gain on extinguishment of debt, loss on disposal of assets, transaction-related expenses, and other non-recurring expenses.
We present Adjusted EBITDA as it is a key measure used by our management and board of directors to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital. We believe that the disclosure of Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as this non-GAAP measure forms the basis of how our management team reviews and considers our operating results. By disclosing this non-GAAP measure, we believe that we create for investors a greater understanding of and an enhanced level of transparency into the means by which our management team operates our company. We also believe this measure can assist investors in comparing our performance to that of other companies on a consistent basis without regard to certain items that do not directly affect our ongoing operating performance or cash flows.
Adjusted EBITDA does not represent cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as a financial measure and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Because of these limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, net (loss) income, gross margin, and our other GAAP results.
The following table presents a reconciliation of net income (loss), the closest GAAP financial measure, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for each of the periods indicated (in thousands):
