Short: Weight Watchers International, Inc. (NYSE:WTW)
✘ Growth in recent quarters has been driven by Platform changes to the program. Next innovation coming end of this year is minor and will catalyze subscriber churn
✘ Rebranding efforts have not led to changes in brand perception, limiting WTW’s ability to convert the new customer segments (e.g. millennials, men) they need to
✘ WTW’s online business, the main driver of growth, faces high hurdles to continued success
✘ At 27x forward P/E and 14x forward EV/EBITDA, WTW is still trading at unwarranted peak valuation levels, especially relative to comparable companies
Short recommendation
WTW has made sustainable business changes that will drive long lasting growth, citing increased retention as proof
WTW is on its way to becoming the lifestyle brand that management aspires towards and will attract new demographics in the future
WTW’s online business will continue to drive growth
WTW deserves substantially higher valuation than peers due to recent outperformance and projected double-digit EBITDA growth

New members? • 1Q11 saw never-members up over 1Q10 and 1Q09 • No stats on never-member enrollment
Platform change has run its course and next innovation will cause churn
Next innovation THEN: Weight Watchers 360 for 2013 NOW: [Freestyle] for 2018
Short term catalyst for churn
• Jessica Simpson’s pregnancy distracted from promotion of new program
• Program change wasn’t drastic enough for people to see value in update – YoY subscribers dropped an average of 11% across all regions
• Oprah launched own heath food line in Aug separately from WTW, so her ‘effect’ will diminish as it is stretched across promotion of multiple products
• Primary research suggests that program change will be minor
#2: WTW is still not a lifestyle brand
Management thinks a rebrand is possible with WTW’s core demographic…
NEW CUSTOMERS = CURRENT CUSTOMERS = PAST CUSTOMERS
“… recurring nature of the business model is an important part of the attractiveness of the business model… if you have a weight-loss problem, it tends to be a chronic issue that you deal with throughout your lifespan. We certainly see repeat members coming back, especially when we have major program innovations…
Our average member today is a 48 to 49-year-old woman on the meetings business... Our average online member is about 43 years old. Those stats have stayed pretty consistent over time. I think over time appealing to new demographics as we grow is a wonderful opportunity for us. In the near term, we're confident that we can return to growth by doing a better job attracting the folks who have traditionally come to Weight Watchers.”
NICHOLAS P. HOTCHKIN, CFO - INDUSTRY CONFERENCE NOVEMBER 2015

#2: WTW is still not a lifestyle brand
…but that group is shrinking. WTW will have to tap into new markets near term to sustain growth
The population of overweight women is not growing.
49% of people think their weight is “about right” and are not
interested in losing weight, the highest ever in history
(historically 31%)
• Confirmed core demographic – majority of attendees were middle-aged women who were overweight (not obese) and appreciated group support
• Size of meetings averaged 10 people• Anecdote from 1 location: attendance had been on decline for past 3 years
• Cited reasons for joining• Life events e.g. wedding, surgery• Previous member• Personally ready to lose weight at that time

BULL CASE BASE CASE BEAR CASE
Thesis plays out: • New innovation leads to churn• WTW needs to reach new
demographics but fails to do so• Online business struggles to compete• Multiple rerates to 12x
• Oprah distances herself, leading marketing expenses to rise
• New innovation is utter disaster and core demographic churns out more than expected
• Emergence of new competing diet plan takes market share
• Multiple rerates to 10x
Risks come to bear:• New innovation attracts never-
members, including those in new demographics
• Online business continues to boost growth
• Peak multiple is warranted

Bull case ($) 12.67
Upside -71%
Street is pricing WTW at peak multiples
Risks mitigations
Upcoming innovation and marketing
campaign are a hit and never-members join
WTW is able to branch out of its core demographic
WTW gains traction internationally
• WTW historically sees high levels of churn after minor program updates
• Market of core demographic is highly saturated
• Oprah launched her own line of heathy comfort foods without WTW, which is competing for the Oprah effect
• This could potentially put WTW a step closer to goal of becoming lifestyle brand, but no evidence of this actually happening
⁻ Website user engagement metrics have been deteriorating
⁻ Meeting attendance is declining
• For online, still needs to compete with the crowded market of free diet apps and social communities
• Neither WTW nor Oprah have the same brand appeal in Europe as they do in US
• Creating the same brand recognition abroad would require a significant marketing investment
• UK meeting growth has struggled historically after botched marketing campaign and emergence of aggressive local competitor
