Thanks, David. Before we get started, I encourage everyone to read our shareholder letter, which we posted on our Investor Relations site earlier this morning. In there, we share our progress against our strategic priorities, latest exciting efficacy claims, and unique differentiators for the company and our programs. We also share key financial trends, including 2025 results, where we were pleased to beat previously provided revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance. Felicia will also provide more colour on our results later in our call. Two quarters ago, we emerged from a Chapter 11 financial reorganisation with a mandate to transform our company to lead in a GLP-1 world. There were many legitimate questions to answer at the time, perhaps the loudest of which were weight watchers a brand known the world over could reinvent itself and successfully compete as we sit here today reflecting on how we exited 2025 and have started 2026 we answer that question with the resounding yes our fourth quarter results and the momentum we've experienced already in the first quarter of 2026 provide us with exciting and additional conviction in our future and all that's possible for Weight Watchers in the years ahead. Over the last year or so, and more dramatically in the months since exiting Chapter 11, Weight Watchers is beginning to feel different, look different, and sound different. We've reduced our legacy debt by more than 70%, freeing capital for investment in the future. We've completely rebuilt the leadership team. We've repositioned and clearly defined our go forward strategy refreshed and reintroduced the weight watchers brand reset our product and pricing architecture and started the extensive execution against our technology modernization roadmap all of this in service of supporting and growing our member base while returning to sustainable profitable growth in our call last quarter i shared that were entering a transformative new era in weight health. In the months since, as adoption of GLP-1s continues to accelerate, it's clearer than ever that our sector is undergoing massive generational change. GLP-1 medications represent a permanent structural shift in how the world understands weight, obesity, and metabolic health. Today about 10 million Americans are estimated to be on GLP-1s. By 2030, McKinsey estimates that number will be between 25 and 50 million. Already, calorie consumption patterns are changing. Cardiovascular risks are declining. And entire industries, from food to alcohol to airlines to apparel, are recalibrating in real time. This is not a continuation of anything we've seen in our past. This is a category being rebuilt from the inside out. Weight Watchers is being rebuilt too. We're fast-evolving from a primarily behavioral subscription business that originally grew from in-person meetings to pairing in-person connections with a digital behavioral subscription, and now into an integrated weight health ecosystem that includes medication access and clinical But we're about so much more than just a prescription. We are building on our decades of providing real, human, comprehensive weight health support wherever our members need it. That commitment doesn't go away with GLP-1s. Far from it, it becomes all the more important. Guidance from leading health authorities like the World Health Organization emphasize that medication alone will not solve the global obesity problem, and that GLP-1s work best in combination with healthy habits and community support. In fact, data we recently published showed that members who regularly engage with the unique behavioral support delivered by our Weight Watchers GLP-1 Success Program lose 29% more body weight at 12 months on average than those who use medication without this structured behavioral support. Additionally, when we look at the results published by competition in our field, our Weight Watchers MedPlus members prescribed GLP-1 medications reported over 30% more body weight lost on average at 12 months than those of competitors. We published these and other exciting results in a GLP-1 report and press release last week, which you can also find on our site, and I encourage you to take a read. Taking a step back, though, the data is plain as day. GLP-1s work better with Weight Watchers, and as a result, we have a unique opportunity as we embark on this next chapter. over the last year or so and particularly in the two quarters since exiting chapter 11 we've been focused on reinventing nearly every aspect of our company to execute on our strategic priorities we're creating a deeply engaging end-to-end member experience innovating to capitalize on new technologies that can continue to support better results and deliver a broad range of solutions to our members on an increasingly personalized basis to meet them wherever they are in their journey we're growing our new and emerging medical offerings and diversifying our revenue streams scaling our clinical business growing our glp1 success program our recently launched menopause program making registered dietitians more widely accessible and expanding through other channels such as b2b as we work to grow access to new and expanded audiences We're revisiting and refreshing how our brand shows up, leaning into the trust and scientific credibility for which we've been known for decades, but in a modern, relevant way for today's consumer, including with a focus on our role in the medication-led space. And after decades lacking sufficient technology investments, we're modernizing our tools, systems and platforms to ensure we are building on a robust foundation from which growth and innovation can be both nimble and efficient moving forward those are our areas of strategic focus today and moving through this year let's talk about how they show up in our product offerings we're working to build a connected ecosystem of solutions one that increasingly facilitates a member's ability to transition across our portfolio based on their specific goals and needs at any point in time in terms of our programs members can subscribe to our base level behavioral core program in order to access our tried and true points tracking system within our mobile app along with new digital tools launched earlier this year core plus is our premium behavioral offering that provides additional human connection expert coaching and community support through in-person and virtual workshops as well as our newer glp1 success and menopause programs. Our GLP-1 Success program allows us to support members on GLP-1s who get their medications outside of Weight Watchers, most typically via their primary care or other specialist physicians. And MedPlus is our clinical offering that combines all of our behavioral programming and expertise plus access to board certified clinicians who can provide specialist care, including GLP-1 and HRT prescriptions for eligible members in the U.S. This program takes off decades of expertise in behavioral science, lifestyle change, and community support, and curates it for those on medication. It does so by providing a unique wraparound system to help guide a member be most successful on their medically guided weight loss journey. Each of these offerings builds on the other. There are foundations for creating an engaged and increasingly retentive member base with higher average revenue per member and importantly the opportunity for superior health outcomes the work ahead of us is to continue to strengthen and enrich each of these experiences while raising awareness in the marketplace in just a few short weeks this year we saw clear proof points that our brand repositioning and awareness efforts were resonating our priority this peak season was to drive a reconsideration of Weight Watchers as a modern, relevant leader in the medical weight loss space, and yes, one that survived an extensively reported bankruptcy process. Our efforts also targeted a simple and important message that is central to our Go Forward strategy, that among the many other things we are known for, that Weight Watchers also now provides access to clinicians who can prescribe GLP-1 medications. Awareness that we even have this offering is low, and therefore represents a significant opportunity ahead. The results from our January campaign were exciting, delivering an increase in awareness of our MedPlus offering of eight points to 30%, while improving our brand modernization perception by nine points. completely repositioning a 60 year old brand takes more than a few weeks so to see such material shifts in the space of a relatively short time gives us immense confidence in the leadership role this powerful trusted global brand can play in this new world moving forward we also relaunched our mobile experience in january it's the first iteration of our app on a newly rebuilt foundational infrastructure and modern code base one that brought with it new tools and programs to market for our members like any release of this scale we moved quickly to incorporate member feedback and address ad hoc performance issues as we sit here in march we've shipped numerous releases since the beginning of the year centered on removing points of friction in the user experience as well as showcasing exciting new additions these include the new AI body scanner, new personalized modes to support different phases of the weight loss journey, a proprietary weight health score, and expanded coach-led virtual meetings, among other ongoing innovations. Nowhere has our commitment to constant improvement been more evidence than in the future digital roadmap we've laid out for the rest of this year. Our driving motivation is to help members successfully achieve their weight health goals with a build fast iterate mindset we're fortunate to have attracted incredibly accomplished and proven new leaders to help lead us through this transformation in science and clinical innovation technology marketing brands community and so much more in the last few weeks we've also filled more specialist and critically important areas such as data ai product and user experience among others turnarounds always take time but they happen faster and more successfully with the right team in place and i could not be more proud of the leaders who are overseeing this next chapter for the company in the run-up to our critical peak season we executed across the company to reintroduce our brand rebuild our websites and acquisition funnels and relaunch this mobile experience in time for january the market is taking note and our strategy is working we're seeing a level of momentum in our med plus offering that is both validating and energizing with member acquisition reaching accelerated levels as we exited 2025 and new highs as we scaled into the first quarter of 2026. our marketing efforts to reposition the weight watchers brand and shift consumer perception are also helping us reach an entirely new audience in january the proportion of first-time Weight Watchers members in the US increased to 35% across all programs and reached even higher levels in MedPlus, where 50% of all new MedPlus members were new to the Weight Watchers brand. We're also successfully re-engaging prior Weight Watchers members, many of whom are returning with clear interest in our newer clinically focused offerings. Of course, we are clear-eyed that this opportunity and associated pace of change does not come without challenges, particularly to a tenured established business like ours. As GRP1 adoption continues to grow, clinically focused solutions will continue to disrupt standalone behavioral alternatives, which is exactly why both our strategy and competitive advantage involves adapting our behavioral business for today's consumers and integrating this curated tailored programming into our fast scaling clinical capabilities again engaging members wherever they are on their weight health journey whether they are new existing or returning speaking of engagement in january we were very pleased to see virtual workshop attendance among core plus members in the us increasing nearly 30 percent year over year and notably when our affiliated physicians lead these sessions attendance more than doubles these metrics represent clear and exciting signals for our business validating the extent to which our members value the unique integration of medical expertise with human connection through our supportive one-of-a-kind weight watchers community As GLP-1s mature, the question is quickly shifting from how do I access these medications to how do I live on them. Industry data indicates nearly one in five patients discontinue use of GLP-1 medication within the first few months, largely due to side effects. We offer the support that can best help our members succeed on these medications, and it shows. In fact, 72% of our MedPlus members reported that our GLP-1 success program helped them minimize their side effects. What's more, MedPlus members, guided by one of our registered dietitians during their first 12 weeks, are 30% less likely to discontinue their treatment plan. These are just a couple of clear yet powerful data points that demonstrate the measurable impact the programs and support systems we are building can have on our members' ability to be successful. They, together with an increasing number of additional proof points, give us confidence in the power and unique value of our model as we move forward. This expansive progress across so many parts of our business is without question deeply encouraging and furthers our belief in the sizable opportunity ahead, but also realistic, knowing that we're in the early days of this work. As is the case with any generational business reinvention, the transition requires both time and careful management. This is all the more critical when managing the balance between exciting and significant growth of new and emerging business lines with ongoing headwinds in a high margin legacy revenue stream. Weight Watchers exits the first quarter with high levels of conviction in our future as we deploy capital against our strategic priorities in this fast evolving market we will continue to proactively manage the balance between the relative maturities and margin profiles of our differing lines of business we stand at an inflection point the industry we helped create is going through mammoth life-affirming change and we do not plan to stand on the sidelines watching. Our Weight Watchers team has both energy and belief in the large-scale opportunity before us. We have never been more confident in our ability to succeed. But most importantly, we have never been more committed to our mission, to help our members the world over live longer, happier, and healthier lives. And with that, I'll turn to Felicia to cover the financials.

Thanks, Tara. Q4 marked the end of one of the most significant financial years in the company's history. Our capital structure was reset through a financial reorganization that eliminated over $1.1 billion of debt, allowing the company to refocus on investment and execution for the future. Q4's results were consistent with our strategic and financial objectives and we are proud to have over-delivered on our previously provided 2025 guidance. We maintain strong adjusted growth margins with disciplined cost action while also strategically reinvesting to support targeted growth initiatives. Note that the year-over-year adjusted EBITDA comparison was impacted by a change in our fiscal reporting calendar end. These additional calendar days included about 10 million of marketing spend from the start of peak season end of period clinical subscribers were 130 000 at the end of q4 returning to sequential growth following the completion of our transition from our former compounded semaglutide offering this momentum strengthens further into q1 even while lapping strong growth from that offering in q1 2025. we are expecting to end q1 with approximately 200 000 end of period clinical subscribers, which when adjusted for compounded semaglutide last year would be roughly 100% year-over-year growth. In Q1, we leaned into marketing to solidify our MedPlus positioning and drive member acquisition during peak season, which was also timed with the WGOV pill entering the market. While we expect sequential growth for clinical subscribers in the remaining quarters of the year, we also anticipate seasonally lower demand following peak season, lower levels of overall marketing spend and a rebalancing of our spend allocation across behavioral and clinical for the remainder of the year end of period behavioral subscribers were 2.6 million at the end of q4 2025 our behavioral business is further defined by two increasingly differing trajectories core faces multi-year ongoing secular headwinds and incremental customer acquisition pressure following our financial reorganization while this line of business saw further pressure in q1 2026 this was due in part to our strategic decision to prioritize awareness and acquisition efforts for a med plus offering in the u.s during peak season we were encouraged however with improvements in increasing signs of stabilization in core plus including member engagement and acquisition trends as we work to position this as our premium behavioral offering this is particularly true as we increase focus over time on our medically centric life stage programs including glp1 success as our data continues to show such encouraging superior health outcomes associated with this offering we are expecting to end q1 with approximately 2.45 million end of period behavioral subscribers which would be a decline of approximately 26 percent year over year. An important part of our strategy involves increasing levels of existing member migration across our portfolio alongside re-engagement of lapsed behavioral members into CorePlus and MedPlus. Over 2025, we saw approximately 30 percent of our clinical signups transitioning directly from our behavioral base, a trend that continued into the first quarter, albeit at slightly lower levels within larger overall new member volumes. Additionally, in Q4, we saw approximately 30% of our core plus signups transitioning directly from core. While these dynamics create a further subscriber and revenue headwind for the core behavioral business, they represent a high value transition to an accretive ARPU profile and increased lifetime member value. Monthly subscription revenue per average subscriber, or ARPU, increased 8% year-over-year to $18.73 in Q4. This growth is anchored by the significant premium of our clinical business, where ARPU remains over four times higher than our behavioral business. Additionally, within the behavioral business, we expect to see the benefit of Core Plus, which commands a price point nearly two times higher than our standard core offering and represents around 20% of our behavioral subscriber base. Sequential ARPU improvement was further supported by the normalization of pricing following a clinical promotional period designed to transition our remaining compounded semaglutide members. Total revenue in Q4 was $163 million, down 12% year-over-year, reflecting the varying dynamics between our lines of business, a 32% growth in clinical revenue, and a 17% decline in behavioral revenue. foreign exchange provided a three million dollar benefit in the quarter and fiscal q4 2025 included one extra day compared to fiscal q4 2024 adjusted gross margin remained near record highs at 74.4 percent in q4 but declined slightly compared to q3 which reflected both the seasonal staffing of clinicians ahead of peak season and the accelerating mix shift towards clinical While clinical carries a higher cost of service due to physician staffing, clinical is highly accretive because of its higher ARPU. Marketing expense in Q4 was 40% of revenue, which increased year over year, primarily due to the inclusion of three calendar days of peak season marketing spend as a result of the change in our fiscal reporting calendar end. Additionally, Q4 2025 reflects our accelerated efforts to raise awareness of our MedPlus offering and start of the peak season. Adjusted product development expense in Q4, which primarily includes personnel costs for engineering, products, design, and data teams, was 5% of revenue. Adjusted SG&A in Q4 was 18% of revenue, remaining relatively flat despite revenue declines, a result of structural cost actions and continued expense discipline. Q4 adjusted EBITDA with $18 million, reflecting an adjusted EBITDA margin of 11.1%. Our profitability remains supported by the structural cost actions we have taken over the past years, which along with financial restructuring have allowed us to fund strategic growth initiatives while maintaining a disciplined margin profile. Now shifting to cash and the balance sheet. We ended Q4 with $160 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $170 million at the end of Q3. The sequential change primarily reflects Q4 adjusted EBITDA, quarterly interest on our term loan of $13 million, capital expenditures of $7 million, and prepayments associated with Q1 marketing commitments. For the full year 2025, net cash taxes were $10 million, which was lower than full year 2024, reflecting transaction-related deductions from our financial reorganization and the current benefits of tax legislation. Following our Q2 2025 financial reorganization, we have fundamentally transformed our balance sheet. Our debt profile consists of a term loan of $465 million with an interest rate of SOFR plus 680 basis points with a maturity of June 24, 2030. Now shifting to our 2026 outlook, we enter 2026 managing two distinct realities. Our performance reflects a deliberate evolution of our model as we move from a collection of standalone behavioral offerings toward a fully integrated weight health ecosystem that includes clinical care, allowing us to proactively support member migration and recapture lapsed behavioral subscribers. This involves advancing the significant momentum of our clinical MedPlus offering while recalibrating our behavioral business across core and CorePlus offerings following multi-year secular headwinds and the commercial impact of our 2025 Chapter 11 reorganization. Our 2025 end-of-period behavioral subscribers translates into an opening subscription revenue headwind in 2026 of approximately $50 million. Within clinical, 2025 included approximately $20 million of revenue from our former compounded semaglutide offering, which we exited in full compliance with FDA guidance following the end of medication shortages. As we focus on a makeshift toward clinical, we also remain focused on our long-term margin profile by leveraging workflow automation, technology enablement, and cost discipline to drive further efficiency as we scale. Turning to operating expenses. We expect 2026 marketing expense as a percentage of revenue to increase modestly compared to 2025. We front-loaded approximately 40 to 45 percent of our full-year marketing spend into Q1, as discussed earlier, which results in lower levels of overall marketing spend for the remaining quarters of the year. It will also see a reallocation across our behavioral and clinical lines of business. Due to the subscription nature of our model, this means the impact of this reallocation of spend may not be fully visible in the 2026 P&L. On product development expenses for 2026, we expect to remain at a similar quarterly run rate to the second half of 2025 as we continue to execute on our multi-year technology roadmap. We expect modest SG&A savings in 2026, primarily driven by the exit from our corporate headquarters lease and ongoing operational discipline. With these components in mind, for fiscal year 2026, we expect revenue to be in the range of $620 to $635 million, and we expect adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $105 to $115 million. With regard to our Q1 cash flow expectations, as is typical for the business, we expect a meaningful use of cash in the first quarter, a deliberate investment phase aligned with our strategic priorities q1 represents our peak marketing investment period and this year includes additional spend to support our brand relaunch and evolving member experience with q1 capital expenditures and interest payments expected to remain consistent with q4 levels per our credit agreement there are annual prepayments to be made for excess cash above 100 million based on the last 10 calendar days of the first quarter. In the case of 2026, any excess cash payment would be due on June 24, 2026. We do not expect Q1 cash usage to be indicative of full-year trends. As marketing spend moderates significantly following peak season, we will continue to manage liquidity and capital allocation with a focus on durable cash generation. We expect 2026 capital expenditures to begin to return toward historical levels as we continue to invest in product innovation, technology infrastructure, and growth initiatives. We expect 2026 net cash taxes to be between five and 10 million. We view 2026 as an important inflection year, unlocking the potential for sustainable future growth. With that, I will now turn it over to the operator to open it up for Q&A.

We will now begin the question and answer session. To ask a question, you may press star, then 1 on your touchtone phone. If you are using a speakerphone, please pick up your handset before pressing the keys. If at any time your question has been addressed and you would like to withdraw your question, please press star, then 2. At this time, we will pause momentarily to assemble our roster. The first question today comes from Alex Fuhrman with Lucid Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

Hey, guys. Thanks very much for taking my questions, and congratulations on all you accomplished in 2025. You know, wanted to ask about some of the changes you're seeing in demand for weight loss medications. It seems like you guys really took the long-term approach here, betting on FDA-approved medications, and that really seems to be paying off now, especially with the lower-priced oral medications coming out.

Can you talk about what demand has looked like for the Wegovi pill and just how we should think about the next three, six months now that you're kind of lapping the last of when you had compounded GLP-1s back when that was allowed per FDA rules? oh yeah hey alex it's tara and thanks for the question um listen i think we are seeing a consistent trend of increasing consumer interest increasing consumer openness and increasing consumer adoption of glp1 medications um as sure the price comes down but also you know more and more people are seeing incredible results on these medications and as new forms come to market so we are definitely very focused as you rightly point out and as you can see in our q1 um both strategy and uh subscriber estimates and expectations but again just to reinforce that with this increased demand for medication our position is not to shift this business to be a prescription-only telehealth business our strategy here is very much to lean into this part of the weight loss ecosystem and this part of innovation in the field but to be building on and integrating everything we've spent six years building um our focus number one two and three is driving superior long-term member outcomes and so the more we see data around and we've shared you know some of it in the call and then the the prepared documents today and in our white paper last week if you saw the more we have conviction in the power of this model. So, yes, leaning into clinic, yes, we're seeing the consumer do the same thing, but really our unique positioning is in the form of the power of integration. But, John, maybe you want to just touch on the Wigobi pill.

Yeah, yeah, thanks, Tara. Regarding the Wigobi pill, I mean, we're incredibly pleased with the launch. So, as we previously highlighted, our platform empowers trained obesity clinicians to work directly with patients to identify the treatment path that's right for them. And thus, the addition of a new option, and particularly one with such clear clinical differentiation, is a significant tailwind for our business. And demand has exceeded our initial projections. And more importantly, we're seeing it as expanding our total addressable market. We're seeing a higher percentage of patients who are entirely new to obesity medicine interested in this treatment option. And this confirms our thesis that, you know, a needle-free oral option significantly lowers the psychological barrier to entry for millions of prospective members. And from an operations standpoint with the launch, we were ready on day one. So through our integration with NovoCare, we were able to onboard interested patients to this new format seamlessly. And then regarding patient access, the market at launch was primarily cash pay. and that was supported by those lower cash pay prices than previous branded GLP-1 launches that you mentioned. However, we have seen in subsequent weeks a steady increase in prior authorization approval rates as more formularies adopt and our dual track ability to support members whether they want to cash pay or utilize insurance remains a core competitive advantage of ours. And so overall, we really view this launch as validating our position as the leader in the weight health space. Our clinical infrastructure is medication agnostic, so we're built to evolve alongside the science. And we view moments like these when new medications and new form factors come to market as an opportunity to truly shine. In an increasingly complex landscape, consumers are looking for a trusted authority to help them navigate treatment options safely and effectively. And to bring it back to member outcomes, as Tara said, our real-world data where we've demonstrated 19.4% weight loss at 12 months is significantly higher than competitors. And this proves that the combination of our high-quality clinical support when paired with behavioral support and nutritional guidance is really a long-term winning strategy.

I would also just add a couple of points on the first part of your question as well. So, as you know, our ARPU on clinic is four times higher than that of behavioral. And last year, in the first half of 2025, we were seeing approximately 50% growth in end-of-period subscribers when we were compounding. If you strip out that impact of compounding in Q1 2025, our estimate for Q1 2026 is showing 100% growth year-over-year.

Okay, that's really helpful. Thank you, all three of you, for that. And then, Sarit, you mentioned in your prepared remarks that about 50% of the MedPlus members that have been joining lately are new to the brand. That sounds pretty high. How does that compare to the last couple years of growth for clinical? And curious how that compares to your new subs on the behavioral side, and what's driving the new interest in the brand from those that are new to it?

Yeah, great question. I mean, 50% is certainly a number that we're pleased about, particularly as we think about this brand coming back to market. We also are bringing more lapsed members back into the Med Plus offering, which is really interesting to see. So just continued increases there. And I think, again, some of that goes to the sort of multiple factors, the strength and awareness of the Weight Watchers brand generally. in that we have a lot of people around the world who know this brand. However, we have less who know that we are in the clinical space and that we offer access to physicians who can prescribe these medications. So as we really think about peak and sort of some of those success metrics, repositioning this brand for people who have not engaged before, repositioning this brand as a leader not just in weight health but in medically centric weight health, Repositioning this brand as not one that is either behavioral of the past or medication only of the future, but really one that is an integrated whole person support platform that can help you throughout your entire journey and building on everything that we've always sort of led with in the market is how we're approaching this sort of next chapter for the company. So it's really twofold. Yes, we need to be bringing new members to the brand. And that's where things like brand relevance, modernization, perception, all these types of metrics are really important leading indicators and signals for our conviction that the brands can play and lead in this next chapter. but also the reconsideration of people who have members who have been with us in the past. But it's exciting to see them coming back, but coming back into some of these newer offerings. So early days, but very positive trends across all signs of this brand and the shift that we're very intentionally trying to make. But again, as I also said in my prepared remarks, you don't reposition a 63-year-old brand over four weeks in January. So this is just the beginning of this, but Q1 gives us a lot of conviction in our ability to be successful over the long term.

That's great to hear, Tar. I really appreciate the thoughtful response.

The next question comes from Justin Ages with CJS Securities. Please go ahead.

Good morning. um so you know clearly it looks like the marketing spend is working with the 200k clinical members just wanted to see if we could dig in a little bit and see if the profile of the ads is changing so is the demographic of new people coming to Weight Watchers is that different than the demographic that's been in the past it's getting there yeah um thanks for the question I mean, I think, you know, as we talked about, we are seeing new members come back.

We're seeing lapsed members come back. We're also seeing younger members start to come into the brand. So, yes, I think slowly but surely we are seeing that expand. But again, you know, we're talking about a pretty short period of time here. So I would expect demographics to continue to expand over time as we really continue in these efforts to make this a brand that can truly meet you where you are. Whether you are thinking about medication, whether you are on medication but getting it from your physician, whether you are looking for access to medication from one of our clinicians or ramp off medication but maintain the weight or none of the above, but do that in an environment where you have human connection, real-life support, and all the behavioral and additional tools that can support you. So I think that we would expect to see demographics continue to widen as time goes on. But some interesting early signs.

I would also add this is, you know, as you could see in our Q1 marketing spend, this was us very much focusing on a full funnel marketing strategy. And so we were across the spectrum of offerings as, you know, across television and out of home as a way of very much expanding our reach with the intent to improve, you know, customer acquisition costs overall. in the future all right very helpful appreciate that and then uh along similar lines and obviously you know early days of the the whole reorganization but are you seeing any indications and how members are signing up in terms of length of contract are you seeing more longer term or is it shifting month to month i mean we've we've mentioned in our previous calls specifically with clinics that we were seeing greater adoption of of 12-month lccs relative to the other plans We are also seeing a similar trend in our behavioral business with folks adopting longer plans. So all, you know, positive trends as it relates to looking out past 2026.

And just as a reminder, I mean, yeah, we're all saying sort of in the early stages, there's going to be a common theme of, you know, we reset our pricing product architecture for peak. And you should expect us to continue to test and learn there as it relates to how that product architecture continues to evolve. So, as Felicia said, we are continuing to evolve not just the product offerings, but the payment structures, the subscription models to meet those needs in the marketplace. But, again, I would just say expect us to continue to be testing and learning as we go.

Yeah, and if you're looking specifically at the clinical business, you know, we see both retention and adherence vary significantly across the individual patient level. And, you know, it's well documented that there are a number of reasons that folks, you know, might discontinue or cycle off medication from side effects to cost considerations to just reaching their goals. And, you know, and that's why, you know, we've really taken the approach of providing a high-quality holistic care system. As mentioned, we have 72% of our MedPlus members reported that the GLP-1 Success Program helped them minimize their side effects, which is critical to maintaining adherence. So we view our goal as supporting people wherever they are in their weight health journey, and we don't see that journey ending, particularly when the prescription stops. Our model is built to help members when appropriate, transition seamlessly from medication-assisted treatment back to our core and behavioral programs. to ensure that we can support their long-term health goals and weight management, even if they stop clinical therapy.

All right. Thanks, all. I appreciate the thorough answers.

The next question comes from William Reuter with Bank of America. Please go ahead.

Hi. I have two questions. Excuse me. The first, on your general pricing strategy, where are you at this point and thoughts on how promotional you may be in 2026, whether you're going to be pulsing different offerings throughout the year, and thoughts upon the importance of average revenue per user versus increased numbers.

Yeah, so as we look out to kind of 2026 and specifically as it relates our pricing and promotional structure one of the big shifts that we have made kind of leading into the 2026 year was allowing members to renew from a long-term commitment to another long-term commitment historically once a long-term commitment had ended members would have to wait till the next big promotion to rejoin weight watchers and so we are very excited about giving folks the opportunity specifically on our behavioral offering to renew from an LTC to LTC. This is, you know, one of kind of the first steps. We do anticipate that this has a slight impact to ARPU overall because what we, as I just mentioned before, we do see folks joining the 12-month LTC, which is at a lower price than our one-month LTC. However, I would note that we are using promotional activity more deliberately in the 2026 year, as well as in the past in the 2025 year. So, for example, in Q3 2025, we provided specific clinical promotional activity as we were moving to try to migrate as many members who are part of our compounding semaglutide offering to our other branded meds that we offer. And so that was a very calculated choice that we have since kind of resumed back to more normal pricing on in our clinic offerings. So see us being out there. And then just to kind of remind on the ARPUs, like overall the core plus ARPU SKU is about two times that of the core only SKU. And so as we kind of see the mixed shift happening to clinic and also seeing core plus stabilize relative to core, we do anticipate that that over time will increase ARPU and create for ARPU expansion.

Yeah, and with our clinical pricing specifically, you know, we feel very confident looking across the landscape that our price to value for our membership is very strong. You know, we have one of the lower entry points to a clinical telehealth program in the space. And when you consider the holistic support system that we provide with that membership, we feel very strong about our price to value ratio.

Got it. That's very helpful. And my second question, you guys referenced the B2B initiative. I'm wondering if you could share any data points on your success there, the size of the program, and what type of growth you might expect or hope for this year.

Yeah, so on our B2B business, this was an area that we had discussed having a disproportionate impact by bankruptcy just because it has a much longer sales cycle. And we were going through Chapter 11 during, you know, what was prime B2B sales cycle season. However, since then, we are very enthused about our pipeline and pleased about the activity. We have taken a much more active effort in our B2B efforts overall. And so this, like we do see as a really important initiative for us. It's still a small percentage of total revenue. However, B2B subscribers are included in our behavioral and clinic business lines in those subscriber counts. But we are pleased with the momentum here, and are happy with the diversification that it provides, both on acquisition as well as with employer relationships.

Yeah, and to speak to a couple of the initiatives on that front, you know, we're really excited about expanding our partnership with UnitedHealth, really across multiple lines of business, including their hub, total weight support, UHC store, and the pilot for fully insured members, and broadly just looking to continue expanding our collaboration with them to reach more employers. And then to speak a little bit to the RxFlex fund, which was something that we announced on our last call, I believe. We did that based on the express needs of our clients, and we've seen others fast follow. which we view as evidence of demand for this type of offering. And with that, we enable a partial subsidy from employers for GLP-1 costs to reduce the cost burden for members versus paying the full direct-to-consumer medication costs. And one of the key differentiators for that program are that we embed an event plus offering within the RxFlex Fund solution for comprehensive care of the program that's easy to add and implement. And as a part of that, as we speak to that price to value, members get access to our GLT-1 success program as part of the overall offering to ensure they're getting wraparound support versus just contributing money to a GLT-1 only.

Got it.

Very helpful.

I'll pass to others.

This concludes our question and answer session. I would like to turn the conference back over to Tara Komat, CEO, for any closing remarks.
