NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)

1. | Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Weight Watchers International, Inc. and all of its subsidiaries. The terms “Company” and “WWI” as used throughout these notes is used to indicate Weight Watchers International, Inc. and all of its operations consolidated for purposes of its financial statements. The Company’s “meetings” business refers to providing access to meetings to the Company’s monthly commitment plan subscribers, “pay-as-you-go” members, Total Access subscribers and other meetings members. “Online” refers to Weight Watchers Online, Weight Watchers OnlinePlus, Personal Coaching and other digital subscription products.

As a result of the acquisition of an additional equity interest in Vigilantes do Peso Marketing Ltda. (“VPM”) in March 2014, the Company gained a direct controlling financial interest in VPM and began to consolidate this entity as of the date of acquisition and as a result of the acquisition of Knowplicity, Inc., d/b/a Wello, in April 2014, Wello became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company began to consolidate this entity as of the date of acquisition. As further discussed in Note 5, as a result of the acquisition of Weilos, Inc. (“Weilos”), in March 2015, Weilos became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company began to consolidate this entity as of the date of acquisition. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and include amounts that are based on management’s best estimates and judgments. While all available information has been considered, actual amounts could differ from those estimates. The Company’s operating results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of future or annual results. The consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, accordingly, they do not include all of the information necessary for a comprehensive presentation of results of operations, financial position and cash flow activity required by GAAP for complete financial statements but, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments including those of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of the interim results presented.

These statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2015 filed on March 2, 2016, which includes additional information about the Company, its results of operations, its financial position and its cash flows.

2. | Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued updated guidance regarding leases, requiring lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with the exception of short-term leases. For lessees, leases will continue to be classified as either operating or finance leases in the income statement. Lessor accounting is similar to the current model but will be updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model. Lessors will continue to classify leases as operating, direct financing or sales-type leases. The effective date of the new guidance for public companies is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The new guidance must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition and requires application of the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The updated guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the updated guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures of the Company.

In March 2016, the FASB issued updated guidance on revenue from contracts with customers, which is intended to clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. The amendments in this update do not change the core principle of the guidance, but are intended to improve the operability and understandability of the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations by including indicators to assist an entity in determining whether it controls a specified good or service before it is transferred to the customer. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the updated guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures of the Company.

In March 2016, the FASB issued updated guidance on stock compensation which is intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the updated guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures of the Company.

For a discussion of the Company’s other significant accounting policies, see “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2015. For a discussion of accounting standards adopted in the current period, see Note 3.

3. | Accounting Standards Adopted in Current Period

In April 2015, the FASB issued updated guidance to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. The amendments in this update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. In August 2015, the FASB issued updated guidance which clarifies the treatment of debt issuance costs from line-of-credit arrangements. In particular, this guidance clarifies that the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff would not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs related to a line-of-credit arrangement as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of such arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the line-of-credit arrangement. As further reflected in Note 7, the Company adopted this guidance during the first quarter of fiscal 2016 on a retrospective basis to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs during the first quarter of fiscal 2016. As shown in the table below, pursuant to the guidance and a change in accounting principle applied on a retrospective basis, the Company has reclassified unamortized debt issuance costs associated with Term Facilities (defined hereafter) in the Company’s previously reported Consolidated Balance Sheet in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2015.

In November 2015, the FASB issued updated guidance on the classification of deferred tax assets. This accounting standard requires deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with related valuation allowances, to be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. As a result, each tax jurisdiction will now only have one net noncurrent deferred tax asset or liability. The new guidance does not change the existing requirement that prohibits offsetting deferred tax liabilities from one jurisdiction against deferred tax assets of another jurisdiction. The Company adopted this guidance during the first quarter of fiscal 2016 on a retrospective basis. As shown in the table below, pursuant to the guidance and a change in accounting principle applied on a retrospective basis, the Company has reclassified current deferred tax assets in the Company’s previously reported Consolidated Balance Sheet in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2015.

In the event that Ms. Winfrey proposes to transfer any Purchased Shares or Winfrey Option Shares (defined below), the Company will have (a) a right of first offer with respect to such shares if such transfer is (i) for 1% or more of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock that is proposed to be made pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or (ii) proposed to be sold under a resale shelf registration statement or (b) a right of first refusal with respect to such shares if such transfer is (i) for 1% or more of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock and is proposed to be made to a competitor of the Company or (ii) for 5% or more of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock. Such transfer restrictions, right of first offer and right of first refusal terminate if Ms. Winfrey then has the right to be nominated as a director and has met certain eligibility requirements under the Winfrey Purchase Agreement, but is not elected as a director of the Company. If Ms. Winfrey is elected as a director of the Company, she shall receive compensation for her services as a director consistent with that of other non-executive directors of the Company. Such transfer restrictions also terminate if there is a change of control, including if another person (or group), other than Artal Luxembourg S.A. and Ms. Winfrey and their respective affiliates, acquires more than 50% of the total voting power of the Company.

Winfrey Option Agreement

In consideration of Ms. Winfrey entering into the Strategic Collaboration Agreement and the performance of her obligations thereunder, on the Agreement Date, the Company granted Ms. Winfrey a fully vested option (the “Winfrey Option”) to purchase 3,513 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $6.97 per share. The term sheet, and related terms and conditions, for the Winfrey Option are referred to herein as the “Winfrey Option Agreement”. Based on the Black Scholes option pricing method, the Company recorded $12,759 of compensation expense in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 for the Winfrey Option. At the date of the grant, the Company used a dividend yield of 0.0%, 63.88% volatility and a risk-free interest rate of 1.36%. Compensation expense is included as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses.

Subject to certain limited exceptions, shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Winfrey Option (the “Winfrey Option Shares”) generally may not be transferred by Ms. Winfrey within the first year of the Agreement Date. Thereafter, Ms. Winfrey generally may transfer up to 20% of the Winfrey Option Shares prior to the second anniversary of the Agreement Date, up to 40% prior to the third anniversary of the Agreement Date, up to 60% prior to the fourth anniversary of the Agreement Date and up to 80% prior to the fifth anniversary of the Agreement Date. On or after the fifth anniversary of the Agreement Date, Ms. Winfrey will be permitted to transfer all of the Winfrey Option Shares. Pursuant to the Winfrey Purchase Agreement, in the event that Ms. Winfrey proposes to transfer any Winfrey Option Shares, the Company will have a right of first offer or a right of first refusal with respect to such shares as described above. Such transfer restrictions terminate under the same director service and change of control circumstances that would result in the termination of the transfer restrictions relating to the Purchased Shares as described above.

5. | Acquisition of Weilos

On March 11, 2015, the Company acquired for a purchase price of $6,674 Weilos, a California-based startup with an online social platform that provides a mobile health and weight loss community. Payment was in the form of common stock issued ($2,810), restricted stock issued ($114) and cash ($2,775) plus cash in reserves ($975). The total purchase price of Weilos has been allocated to goodwill ($5,588), identifiable intangibles ($1,741) and other assets ($24) offset by deferred tax liabilities ($679). Restricted shares with a fair value at the date of grant ($908) were issued to key employees, contingent upon 18 months post-combination employment, and are accounted for as stock compensation cost in the post-combination financial statements. As a result of the acquisition, Weilos became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company began to consolidate the entity as of the date of acquisition. The acquisition resulted in goodwill related to, among other things, expected synergies in operations. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

6. | Franchise Rights Acquired, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Franchise rights acquired are due to acquisitions of the Company’s franchised territories as well as the acquisition of franchise promotion agreements and other factors associated with the acquired franchise territories. For the three months ended April 2, 2016, the change in the carrying value of indefinite-lived franchise rights acquired is due to the effect of exchange rate changes.

Goodwill primarily relates to the acquisition of the Company by H.J. Heinz Company in 1978, the acquisition of WeightWatchers.com, Inc. in 2005, the acquisitions of the Company’s franchised territories, the acquisitions of the majority interest in VPM and of Wello in fiscal 2014 and the acquisition of Weilos in fiscal 2015. See Note 5 for further information on the Weilos acquisition. For the three months ended April 2, 2016, the change in the carrying amount of goodwill is due to the effect of exchange rate changes as follows:

|  | North |  |  | United |  |  | Continental |  |  |  |  |  |  |
|  | America |  |  | Kingdom |  |  | Europe |  |  | Other |  |  | Total |
Balance as of January 2, 2016 |  | $ | 133,408 |  |  | $ | 1,370 |  |  | $ | 7,260 |  |  | $ | 17,293 |  |  | $ | 159,331 |
Effect of exchange rate changes |  |  | 2,503 |  |  |  | (51 | ) |  |  | 318 |  |  |  | 1,813 |  |  |  | 4,583 |
Balance as of April 2, 2016 |  | $ | 135,911 |  |  | $ | 1,319 |  |  | $ | 7,578 |  |  | $ | 19,106 |  |  | $ | 163,914 |

As a result of a recent decision to adjust the scope and timing of certain business initiatives in the Brazilian market, the Company performed a quantitative impairment assessment, in a manner consistent with its annual approach to testing goodwill impairment, to assess whether the carrying value of this reporting unit exceeds its fair value. Based on the results of this interim test the Company concluded that no impairment exists. However, based on the results of this test, the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value by less than 10%, and accordingly a change in the underlying assumptions would cause a change in the results of the impairment assessment and, as such, could result in an impairment of the goodwill related to Brazil, for which the carrying amount is $16,900.

(1) | Includes amortization of deferred financing costs.

Pursuant to the retrospective adoption of FASB guidance on debt issuance costs, the Company has reclassified unamortized debt issuance costs associated with Term Facilities (defined hereafter) in the Company’s previously reported Consolidated Balance Sheet in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2015.

The Company’s credit facilities at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2013 consisted of the following term loan facilities and revolving credit facilities: a tranche B loan (“Term B Loan”), a tranche C loan (“Term C Loan”), a tranche D loan (“Term D Loan”), a tranche E loan (“Term E Loan”), a tranche F loan (“Term F Loan”), revolving credit facility A-1 (“Revolver A-1” ) and revolving credit facility A-2 (“Revolver A-2”).

On April 2, 2013, the Company refinanced its credit facilities pursuant to a new Credit Agreement (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”) among the Company, the lenders party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and an issuing bank, The Bank of Nova Scotia, as revolving agent, swingline lender and an issuing bank, and the other parties thereto. The Credit Agreement provides for (a) a revolving credit facility (including swing line loans and letters of credit) in an initial aggregate principal amount of $250,000 that will mature on April 2, 2018 (the “Revolving Facility”), (b) an initial term B-1 loan credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $300,000 that matured on April 2, 2016 (the “Tranche B-1 Term Facility”) and (c) an initial term B-2 loan credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $2,100,000 that will mature on April 2, 2020 (the “Tranche B-2 Term Facility”, and together with the Tranche B-1 Term Facility, the “Term Facilities”; the Term Facilities and Revolving Facility collectively, the “WWI Credit Facility”). In connection with this refinancing, the Company used the proceeds from borrowings under the Term Facilities to pay off a total of $2,399,904 of outstanding loans, consisting of $128,759 of Term B Loans, $110,602 of Term C Loans, $117,612 of Term D Loans, $1,125,044 of Term E Loans, $817,887 of Term F Loans, $21,247 of loans under the Revolver A-1 and $78,753 of loans under the Revolver A-2. Following the refinancing of a total of $2,399,904 of loans, at April 2, 2013, the Company had $2,400,000 debt outstanding under the Term Facilities and $248,848 of availability under the Revolving Facility. The Company incurred fees of $44,817 during the second quarter of fiscal 2013 in connection with this refinancing. In the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company wrote-off fees associated with this refinancing which resulted in the Company recording a charge of $21,685 in early extinguishment of debt.

On September 26, 2014, the Company and certain lenders entered into an agreement amending the Credit Agreement that, among other things, eliminated the Financial Covenant (as defined in the Credit Agreement) with respect to the Revolving Facility. In connection with this amendment, the Company wrote-off deferred financing fees of approximately $1,583 in the third quarter of fiscal 2014. Concurrently with and in order to effect this amendment, the Company reduced the amount of the Revolving Facility from $250,000 to $50,000.

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)

Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, depending on the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement), the Company is obligated to offer to prepay the Term Facilities in an aggregate amount determined by its excess cash flow (as defined in the Credit Agreement). On March 13, 2015, the Company commenced an offer to prepay at a discount to par up to $75,000 in aggregate principal amount of term loans outstanding under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility. On March 20, 2015, the Company accepted offers with a discount equal to or greater than 9.00% in respect of such term loans. On March 25, 2015, the Company paid an aggregate amount of cash proceeds totaling $57,389 plus an amount sufficient to pay accrued and unpaid interest on the amount prepaid to prepay $63,065 in aggregate principal amount of such term loans under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility. This expenditure reduced, on a dollar for dollar basis, the Company’s $59,728 obligation to make a mandatory excess cash flow prepayment offer to the term loan lenders under the terms of the Credit Agreement. In addition, the Company made a voluntary prepayment at par on March 25, 2015 of $2,500 in respect of such term loans under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility to reduce the remaining excess cash flow prepayment obligation for fiscal 2014. As a result of this prepayment, the Company wrote-off fees of $326, incurred fees of $601 and recorded a gain on early extinguishment of debt of $4,749, inclusive of these fees, in the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

On June 17, 2015, the Company commenced another offer to prepay at a discount to par up to $229,000 in aggregate principal amount of term loans outstanding under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility. On June 22, 2015, the Company accepted offers with a discount equal to or greater than 9.00% in respect of such term loans. On June 26, 2015, the Company paid an aggregate amount of cash proceeds totaling $77,225 plus an amount sufficient to pay accrued and unpaid interest on the amount prepaid to prepay $84,862 in aggregate principal amount of such term loans under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility. As a result of this prepayment, the Company wrote-off fees of $321, incurred fees of $641 and recorded a gain on early extinguishment of debt of $6,677, inclusive of these fees, in the second quarter of fiscal 2015.

On July 14, 2015, the Company drew down the $48,000 available on its Revolving Facility in order to enhance its cash position and to provide additional financial flexibility. The revolver borrowing has been classified as a short-term liability in consideration of the fact that the terms of the Revolving Facility require an assessment as to whether there have been any material adverse changes with respect to the Company in connection with the Company’s monthly interest elections. Although the revolver borrowing has been classified as a short-term liability, absent any change in fact and circumstance, the Company has the ability to extend and not repay the Revolving Facility until its due date of April 2, 2018.

On April 1, 2016, the Company paid in full, with cash on hand, a principal amount of loans equal to $144,323, which constituted the entire remaining principal amount of loans outstanding under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility due April 2, 2016.

At April 2, 2016, under the WWI Credit Facility, the Company had $2,037,000 outstanding consisting entirely of a term loan under the Tranche B-2 Term Facility, and borrowings of $48,000 outstanding under the Revolving Facility. In addition, at April 2, 2016, the Revolving Facility had $1,819 in issued but undrawn letters of credit outstanding thereunder and $181 in available unused commitments thereunder. The proceeds from borrowings under the Revolving Facility (including swing line loans and letters of credit) are available to be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Company’s option, LIBOR plus an applicable margin or a base rate plus an applicable margin. LIBOR under the Tranche B-2 Term Facility is subject to a minimum interest rate of 0.75% and the base rate under the Tranche B-2 Term Facility is subject to a minimum interest rate of 1.75%. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, in the event the Company receives a corporate rating of BB- (or lower) from S&P and a corporate rating of Ba3 (or lower) from Moody’s, the applicable margin relating to both of the Term Facilities would increase by 25 basis points. On February 21, 2014, both S&P and Moody’s issued revised corporate ratings of the Company of B+ and B1, respectively. As a result, effective February 21, 2014, the applicable margin on borrowings under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility went from 2.75% to 3.00% and on borrowings under the Tranche B-2 Term Facility went from 3.00% to 3.25%. The applicable margin relating to the Revolving Facility will fluctuate depending upon the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio. At April 1, 2016, the date of payment of the principal amount of loans outstanding thereunder and discussed above, borrowings under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility bore interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 3.00%. At April 2, 2016, borrowings under the Tranche B-2 Term Facility bore interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 3.25%. Based on the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of April 2, 2016, borrowings under the Revolving Facility bore interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 2.50%. On a quarterly basis, the Company will pay a commitment fee to the lenders under the Revolving Facility in respect of unutilized commitments thereunder, which commitment fee will fluctuate depending upon the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio. Based on the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, the commitment fee was 0.50% per annum. For the three months ended April 2, 2016, the Company paid a

12

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)

de minimis amount in commitment fees. For the fiscal year ended January 2, 2016, the Company paid $186 in commitment fees. The Company also will pay customary letter of credit fees and fronting fees under the Revolving Facility, which totaled $12 for the three months ended April 2, 2016 and $48 for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2016.

The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants including covenants that, in certain circumstances, restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends on and redeem capital stock, make other payments, including investments, sell its assets and enter into consolidations, mergers and transfers of all or substantially all of its assets. The WWI Credit Facility does not require the Company to meet any financial maintenance covenants and is guaranteed by certain of the Company’s existing and future subsidiaries. Substantially all of the Company’s assets secure the WWI Credit Facility.

At April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, the Company’s debt consisted entirely of variable-rate instruments. Interest rate swaps were entered into to hedge a portion of the cash flow exposure associated with the Company’s variable-rate borrowings. The weighted average interest rate (which includes amortization of deferred financing costs) on the Company’s debt, exclusive of the impact of swaps, was approximately 4.32% and 4.34% per annum based on interest rates at April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, respectively. The weighted average interest rate (which includes amortization of deferred financing costs) on the Company’s debt, including the impact of swaps, was approximately 5.25% and 5.45% per annum based on interest rates at April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, respectively.

8. | Per Share Data

Basic net loss per share is calculated utilizing the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted net loss per share is calculated utilizing the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented adjusted for the effect of dilutive common stock equivalents.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per share data:

|  | Three Months Ended |
|  | April 2, 2016 |  |  | April 4, 2015 |
Numerator: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Net loss per share attributable to Weight Watchers International, Inc. basic and diluted |  | $ | (0.17 | ) |  | $ | (0.10 | )

The number of anti-dilutive common stock equivalents excluded from the calculation of the weighted average number of common shares for diluted net loss per share was 3,444 and 3,675 for the three months ended April 2, 2016 and April 4, 2015, respectively.

9. | Stock Plans

On May 6, 2008 and May 12, 2004, respectively, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2008 Plan”) and the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2004 Plan”). On May 6, 2014, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended, the “2014 Plan” and together with the 2004 Plan and the 2008 Plan, the “Stock Plans”), which replaced the 2008 Plan and 2004 Plan for all equity-based awards granted on or after May 6, 2014. The 2014 Plan is designed to

13

promote the long-term financial interests and growth of the Company by attracting, motivating and retaining employees with the ability to contribute to the success of the business and to align compensation for the Company’s employees over a multi-year period directly with the interests of the shareholders of the Company. The Company’s Board of Directors or a committee thereof administers the 2014 Plan.

Pursuant to the option components of the Stock Plans, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to enter into agreements under which certain employees received stock options with (i) time vesting criteria and/or (ii) both time and performance vesting criteria (“T&P Options”). On May 7, 2015, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the 2014 Plan to permit a one-time stock option exchange program under which the Company would offer eligible employees the opportunity to exchange certain eligible T&P Options on a (a) two-for-one basis for new stock options for all eligible employees, other than the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (i.e., so that the new stock options would cover half as many shares as the corresponding surrendered options) and (b) 3.5-for-one basis for new stock options for the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (i.e., so that the new stock options would cover a number of shares equal to the quotient of the number of shares covered by the corresponding surrendered options divided by 3.5). The option exchange program was designed to create better incentives for employees to remain with the Company and contribute to the attainment of its business and financial objectives.

On May 22, 2015, the Company launched a tender offer in connection with the option exchange program which expired on June 22, 2015. Pursuant to the offer, employees tendered options to purchase 1,700 shares of common stock (representing 99.6% of the total shares of common stock underlying the options eligible for exchange) with a weighted-average exercise price of $24.68 per share. The Company cancelled and replaced those options on June 22, 2015 with options to purchase 734 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $5.25 per share, which was the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on June 22, 2015. The replacement options vest over three years, with 25% vesting on each of the first and second anniversaries of the date of grant and 50% vesting on the third anniversary of the date of grant. The option exchange resulted in an incremental stock option expense of $1,599, which was determined by comparing the fair value of the T&P Option as calculated based on a Monte Carlo simulation, to the fair value of the replacement options, as calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, for the eligible options at the time of exchange. This incremental expense, along with the unamortized expense associated with the cancelled options, is being recognized ratably over the new vesting period of the replacement options, which is three years. As of the end of fiscal 2015, there were no outstanding T&P Options.

10. | Income Taxes

The effective tax rates for the three months ended April 2, 2016 and April 4, 2015 were 34.2% and 38.1%, respectively. For the three months ended April 2, 2016, the primary differences between the US federal statutory tax rate and the Company’s consolidated effective tax rate were state income taxes and increases in valuation allowances. For the three months ended April 4, 2015, the primary differences between the US federal statutory tax rate and the Company’s consolidated effective tax rate were increases in valuation allowances, state income taxes and tax reserves.

11. | Legal

In re Weight Watchers International, Inc. Securities Litigation

In March 2014, two substantially identical putative class action complaints alleging violation of the federal securities laws were filed by individual shareholders against the Company, certain of the Company’s current and former officers and directors, and Artal Group S.A. (“Artal”) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The complaints were purportedly filed on behalf of all purchasers of the Company’s common stock, no par value per share, between February 14, 2012 and October 30, 2013, inclusive (the “Class Period”). The complaints allege that, during the Class Period, the defendants disseminated materially false and misleading statements and/or concealed material adverse facts. The complaints allege claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. The plaintiffs seek to recover unspecified damages on behalf of the class members. In June 2014, the Court consolidated the cases and appointed lead plaintiffs and lead counsel. On August 12, 2014, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint that, among other things, reduced the Class Period to between February 14, 2012 and February 13, 2013 and dropped all current officers and certain directors previously named as defendants. On October 14, 2014, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss. The plaintiffs filed an opposition to the defendants’ motion to dismiss on November 24, 2014 and the defendants filed a reply in support of their motion to dismiss on December 23, 2014. The Company continues to believe that the suits are without merit and intends to defend them vigorously.

Tracey Mead, Derivatively on Behalf of Weight Watchers International, Inc. vs. Artal Group et. al. and Weight Watchers International, Inc.

On May 29, 2014 and June 23, 2014, the Company received shareholder litigation demand letters alleging breaches of fiduciary duties and unjust enrichment by Company officers and directors and Artal, to the alleged injury of the Company. The allegations in the letters relate to those contained in the ongoing federal securities litigation described above. In response to the letters, pursuant to Virginia law, the Board of Directors has created a special committee to review and evaluate the facts and circumstances surrounding the claims made in the demand letters. The special committee has decided to undertake its review after receiving a decision on defendants’ motion to dismiss in the federal securities litigation given the overlapping issues.

On August 11, 2015, a purported shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in New York State Court in Westchester County. The complaint alleges that certain Company directors and executive officers breached their various fiduciary duties by knowingly causing the Company to repurchase shares from Artal and from certain executive officers at artificially inflated prices in connection with a tender offer made to all shareholders. The complaint seeks an order for the defendants to disgorge all profits made from selling Company stock between March 16, 2012 and April 9, 2012, as well as an award for damages sustained by the alleged breaches of fiduciary duty. The parties sought to stay this suit pending a decision on defendants’ motion to dismiss in the federal securities litigation asserting similar allegations. The Court denied the stay, but at the preliminary court conference on December 17, 2015, the Court granted an adjournment. The next court conference is scheduled for June 24, 2016. The Company believes that the suit is without merit and intends to defend it vigorously.

Raymond Roberts v. Weight Watchers International, Inc.

On January 7, 2016, an OnlinePlus member filed a putative class action complaint against the Company in the Supreme Court of New York, New York County, asserting class claims for breach of contract and violations of the New York General Business Law. On February 5, 2016, the Company removed the case to the United States District Court, Sothern District of New York. On March 18, 2016, the plaintiff filed an amended complaint, alleging that, as a result of the temporary glitches in the Company’s website and app in November and December 2015, the Company has: (1) breached its Subscription Agreement with its OnlinePlus members; and (2) engaged in deceptive acts and practices in violation of Section 350 of the New York General Business Law. The plaintiff is seeking unspecified actual, punitive and statutory damages, as well as his attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection with this action. The Company filed a motion to dismiss on May 6, 2016. The Company believes that the suit is without merit and intends to defend it vigorously.

Other Litigation Matters

Due to the nature of the Company’s activities, it is also, at times, subject to pending and threatened legal actions that arise out of the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the disposition of any such matters is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

12. | Derivative Instruments and Hedging

As of April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, the Company had in effect an interest rate swap with a notional amount totaling $1,500,000.

On July 26, 2013, in order to hedge an additional portion of its variable rate debt, the Company entered into a forward-starting interest rate swap with an effective date of March 31, 2014 and a termination date of April 2, 2020. The initial notional amount of this swap was $1,500,000. During the term of this swap, the notional amount will decrease from $1,500,000 effective March 31, 2014 to $1,250,000 on April 3, 2017 with a further reduction to $1,000,000 on April 1, 2019. This interest rate swap effectively fixes the variable interest rate on the notional amount of this swap at 2.38%. This swap qualifies for hedge accounting and, therefore, changes in the fair value of this swap have been recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

As of April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, cumulative unrealized losses for qualifying hedges were reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in the amounts of $31,872 ($52,246 before taxes) and $23,135 ($38,053 before taxes), respectively.

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)

The Company is hedging forecasted transactions for periods not exceeding the next six years. The Company expects approximately $10,984 ($18,006 before taxes) of derivative losses included in accumulated other comprehensive loss at April 2, 2016, based on current market rates, will be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months.

13. | Fair Value Measurements

Accounting guidance on fair value measurements for certain financial assets and liabilities requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

| • |  | Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

| • |  | Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

| • |  | Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

When measuring fair value, the Company is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s significant financial instruments include long-term debt and interest rate swap agreements. The fair value of the Company’s borrowings under the Revolving Facility approximates a carrying value of $48,000 due to the nature of the debt.

The fair value of the Company’s Term Facilities is determined by utilizing average bid prices on or near the end of each fiscal quarter (Level 2 input). As of April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, the fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was approximately $1,549,128 and $1,664,393, respectively, as compared to carrying value (net of deferring financing costs) of $2,013,664 and $2,161,619, respectively.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The fair values for the Company’s derivative financial instruments are determined using observable current market information such as the prevailing LIBOR interest rate and LIBOR yield curve rates and include consideration of counterparty credit risk. See Note 12 for disclosures related to derivative financial instruments.

The following table presents the aggregate fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments:

|  |  |  |  | Fair Value Measurements Using: |
|  | Total Fair Value |  |  | Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) |  |  | Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) |  |  | Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) |
Interest rate swap liability at April 2, 2016 |  | $ | 58,363 |  |  | $ | 0 |  |  | $ | 58,363 |  |  | $ | 0 |
Interest rate swap liability at January 2, 2016 |  | $ | 44,170 |  |  | $ | 0 |  |  | $ | 44,170 |  |  | $ | 0 |

The Company did not have any transfers into or out of Levels 1 and 2, and did not maintain any assets or liabilities classified as Level 3, during the three months ended April 2, 2016 and the fiscal year ended January 2, 2016.

14. | Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

With respect to the disclosure of the amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss for the three months ended April 4, 2015 the Company has revised the amounts previously disclosed to correct those amounts by increasing the amount reclassified related to the Loss on Qualifying Hedges from $(476) to $6,185 and $(291) to $3,773 on a pre- and after-tax basis, respectively.

16. | Restructuring Charges

As previously disclosed, the Company established a new cost savings initiative and, as part of this cost savings initiative, in fiscal 2015, the Company undertook a plan of reduction in force which resulted in the elimination of certain positions and termination of employment for certain employees worldwide. In connection with this plan, the Company recorded restructuring charges in connection with employee termination benefit costs of $5,761 ($3,514 after tax) during the three months ended April 4, 2015. For the three months ended April 4, 2015, these charges impacted cost of revenues by $2,009 and selling, general and administrative expense by $3,752. For the three months ended April 4, 2015 all restructuring charges were recorded to general corporate expense and therefore there was no impact to the segments.

As of January 2, 2016, the balance of the liability for restructuring was $1,809. For the three months ended April 2, 2016, the Company made payments of $225 and lowered provision estimates by $75. The Company expects the remaining liability of $1,509 as of April 2, 2016 to be paid in fiscal 2016.

17. | Related Party

As more fully described in Note 4, on October 18, 2015, the Company entered into the Strategic Collaboration Agreement with Ms. Winfrey, under which she will consult with the Company and participate in developing, planning, executing and enhancing the Weight Watchers program and related initiatives, and provide it with services in her discretion to promote the Company and its programs, products and services.

In addition to the Strategic Collaboration Agreement, Ms. Winfrey and her related entities provided services to the Company totaling $1,144 during the first quarter of fiscal 2016, which services included advertising, production and related fees.

The Company’s accounts payable to parties related to Ms. Winfrey at April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016 was $1,296 and $574, respectively.

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2015 that includes additional information about us, our results of operations, our financial position and our cash flows, and with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (collectively referred to as the Consolidated Financial Statements).

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

To supplement our consolidated results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, we have disclosed non-GAAP financial measures of operating results that exclude or adjust certain items. Gross profit and gross profit margin, operating income and operating income margin, net loss attributable to the Company, selling, general and administrative expenses and net loss per fully diluted share, including components thereof, are discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q both as reported (on a GAAP basis) and, with respect to the first quarter of fiscal 2015, as adjusted (on a non-GAAP basis), as applicable, to exclude the impact of charges associated with our previously disclosed 2015 plan to restructure our organization and to exclude the impact from the gain on early extinguishment of debt associated with our previously reported debt prepayment in the period. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation (“EBITDAS”) is also presented within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources” for the calculation. We generally refer to such non-GAAP measures as excluding or adjusting for the impact of the expenses associated with the restructuring charges, and the gain on the early extinguishment of debt. Our management believes these non-GAAP financial measures and EBITDAS provide supplemental information to investors regarding the performance of our business and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of the performance of our business. While we believe that these financial measures are useful in evaluating our business, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as similarly entitled measures reported by other companies.

USE OF CONSTANT CURRENCY

As exchange rates are an important factor in understanding period-to-period comparisons, we believe in certain cases the presentation of results on a constant currency basis in addition to reported results helps improve investors’ ability to understand our operating results and evaluate our performance in comparison to prior periods. Constant currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period. We use results on a constant currency basis as one measure to evaluate our performance. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we calculate constant currency by calculating current-

22

##### Table of Contents

year results using prior-year foreign currency exchange rates. We generally refer to such amounts calculated on a constant currency basis as excluding or adjusting for the impact of foreign currency or being on a constant currency basis. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with GAAP. Results on a constant currency basis, as we present them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measures of performance presented in accordance with GAAP.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Interim Impairment Test Assessment

On February 25, 2016, we completed our annual impairment test for both goodwill and franchise rights acquired, incorporating all of the business performance information available to us through that date. Following the end of our first quarter of fiscal 2016, we considered the events and circumstances that existed subsequent to February 25, 2016 in performing our interim analysis to determine whether a triggering event had occurred such that an interim impairment analysis of one or more of our indefinite-lived assets was necessary. Given the positive performance of the Company versus our projections used at the time we completed our annual impairment test, we concluded that there has been no triggering event requiring an interim impairment analysis aside from our Brazilian reporting unit.

As a result of a recent decision to adjust the scope and timing of certain business initiatives in the Brazilian market, the Company performed a quantitative impairment assessment, in a manner consistent with our annual approach to testing goodwill impairment, to assess whether the carrying value of this reporting unit exceeds its fair value. Based on the results of this interim test the Company concluded that no impairment exists. However, based on the results of this test, the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value by less than 10%, and accordingly a change in the underlying assumptions would cause a change in the results of the impairment assessment and, as such, could result in an impairment of the goodwill related to Brazil, for which the carrying amount is $16.9 million. For information on risks associated with our recognizing asset impairment charges, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2015.

Other Critical Accounting Policies

For a discussion of the other critical accounting policies affecting us, see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2015. Subject to the foregoing, our critical accounting policies have not changed since the end of fiscal 2015.

PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

Our management reviews and analyzes several key performance indicators in order to manage our business and assess the quality and potential variability of our cash flows and earnings. These key performance indicators include:

| • |  | Revenues—Our “Service Revenues” consist of “Meeting Fees” and “Online Subscription Revenues”. “Meeting Fees” consist of the fees associated with our monthly commitment plans for unlimited access to meetings and other payment arrangements for access to meetings, including our “pay-as-you-go” payment arrangement and fees associated with our Total Access product. “Online Subscription Revenues” consist of the fees associated with subscriptions for our Online subscription products, including our Personal Coaching product.

| • |  | Paid Weeks—The “Paid Weeks” metric reports paid weeks by Weight Watchers customers in Company-owned operations for a given period as follows: (i) “Meeting Paid Weeks” is the sum of total paid commitment plan weeks (including Total Access) and total “pay-as-you-go” weeks; (ii) “Online Paid Weeks” is the total paid subscription weeks for our digital subscription products (including Personal Coaching); and (iii) “Total Paid Weeks” is the sum of Meeting Paid Weeks and Online Paid Weeks, in each case for a given period.

| • |  | Incoming Subscribers—“Subscribers” refer to meetings members and Online subscribers who participate in recurring billing programs, such as our monthly commitment plans for our meetings business. The “Incoming Subscribers” metric reports Weight Watchers subscribers in Company-owned operations at a given period start as follows: (i) “Incoming Meeting Subscribers” is the total Weight Watchers monthly commitment plan subscribers (including Total Access); (ii) “Incoming Online Subscribers” is the total number of Weight Watchers Online, Weight Watchers OnlinePlus and Personal Coaching subscribers; and (iii) “Incoming Subscribers” is the sum of Incoming Meeting Subscribers and Incoming Online Subscribers, in each case at a given period start.

| • |  | End of Period Subscribers—The “End of Period Subscribers” metric reports Weight Watchers subscribers in Company-owned operations at a given period end as follows: (i) “End of Period Meeting Subscribers” is the total Weight Watchers monthly commitment plan subscribers (including Total Access); (ii) “End of Period Online Subscribers” is the total number of Weight Watchers Online, Weight Watchers OnlinePlus and Personal Coaching subscribers; and (iii) “End of Period Subscribers” is the sum of End of Period Meeting Subscribers and End of Period Online Subscribers, in each case at a given period end.

TRANSFORMATION PLAN

As previously disclosed, the Company is currently executing a multi-year transformation plan. The four strategic areas of focus of this transformation plan are as follows: improving near-term performance, including strong cost management; repositioning our brand and improving our service and product offerings; targeting new channel growth in healthcare; and building organizational capabilities. As part of our focus on strong cost management, we are committed to maintaining stringent expense disciplines. We successfully reduced our gross annualized expenses by $250 million as of the end of fiscal 2015 versus our fiscal 2012 cost base, with $150 million coming out of marketing and the balance split between cost of sales and general and administrative expenses. See Note 16 of our consolidated financial statements, contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for additional details on our cost-savings initiative. The December 2015 launch of our comprehensive program innovation, Beyond the Scale, is a key component of our strategy to reposition our brand and improve our service and product offerings. This innovation expands our purpose from weight loss alone to more broadly helping people lead healthier, more active, happier lives. Management is confident this new holistic consumer program, together with our groundbreaking partnership with Ms. Winfrey, will continue to accelerate the successful repositioning of our brand. As part of our partnership, and in furtherance of this repositioning of our brand, Ms. Winfrey was featured in our 2016 winter season television advertising in certain key markets. She will also continue to be a member and may, from time to time, continue to candidly share her experiences and perspectives along the way of her weight loss journey as she has done by her participation in our Connect social media platform and her sharing her experiences in mega conference calls with members during the first quarter of fiscal 2016. The successful launch of the Beyond the Scale program has resulted in positive End of Period Subscribers up 4.8% in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 as compared to the prior year period, for the first time since 2012, which clearly demonstrates our transformation progress. A key component of the organizational capabilities upgrade is our technology transformation, whereby we are replacing legacy technology systems and architecture to enable us to deliver product and program enhancements in a more agile, cost-effective manner. To date, we achieved significant milestones in this arena. For additional details on our investments to date related to this technology transformation, see “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Investing Activities—”. As we execute this transformation plan, management, from time to time, reviews the resulting revenues and associated costs to refine the plan in order to ensure resources are allocated efficiently and optimized. As management determines resources should be reallocated, they refine the transformation plan accordingly. For example, our investment strategy in the healthcare channel and related technology has evolved to focus on proving our internal capabilities to deliver against healthcare market needs. Management continues to believe that the Company has sufficient liquidity to execute the transformation plan and does not believe the Company is constrained by its capital structure. See “— Liquidity and Capital Resources”.

ANTICIPATED BUSINESS METRICS, TRENDS AND OTHER EVENTS

We expect that our fiscal 2016 revenues will increase to be slightly above $1.2 billion as compared to fiscal 2015, driven by higher recruitments and stable retention that will establish a strong foundation for revenue growth and increased profitability in fiscal 2016. Given the nature of our subscription-based payment model, revenue growth typically lags recruitment growth. We expect an increase in revenues despite the approximately $20.0 million negative impact of the lower number of fiscal 2016 Incoming Subscribers versus the prior year and an anticipated $14.0 million negative impact of foreign currency on fiscal 2016 revenues based on current rates.

Consolidated Results

Revenues

Revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 declined by $15.2 million, or 4.7%, to $306.9 million versus the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which negatively impacted our revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 by $5.4 million, revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 would have declined 3.0% versus the prior year period. Despite revenue growth in North America, declines in the remaining segments, particularly Continental Europe and the UK, were more than offsetting. See “—Segment Results” for additional details on revenues.

Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit

Total cost of revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 declined $7.6 million, or 4.6%, versus the prior year period. Excluding the impact of the 2015 restructuring charges, total cost of revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 would have declined $5.6 million, or 3.4%, versus the prior year period. Excluding the impact of the 2015 restructuring charges, gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 would have decreased by $9.6 million, or 6.1%, from the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which negatively impacted our gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 by $2.5 million, gross profit in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 would have decreased 3.3% versus the prior year period. Excluding the impact of the 2015 restructuring charges, gross margin in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 would have been 48.8%, as compared to gross margin of 49.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Gross margin compression was driven primarily by declines in both Continental Europe and the UK partially offset by gross margin expansion in North America. The decline in gross margin was driven primarily by global discounting of our service offerings, the worldwide decline in the high margin licensing business partially offset by lower costs to support 24/7 Expert Chat in the United States and fixed cost leverage in North America.

Marketing

Marketing expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 decreased $0.8 million, or 0.9%, versus the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which decreased marketing expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 by $2.0 million, marketing expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 would have increased 1.4% versus the prior year period. The increase in marketing expense was primarily driven by higher TV media in some of our markets driven by an early start to their Spring campaign and higher investment in Online media partially offset by lower production costs in the United States. Marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue were 28.2% in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 as compared to 27.1% in the prior year period.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 decreased $2.4 million, or 4.6%, versus the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which decreased selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 by $0.8 million, selling, general and administrative expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 would have declined 3.0% versus the prior year period. Excluding the impact of the 2015 restructuring charges, selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 would have increased by 2.9%, or 4.6% on a constant currency basis, versus the prior year period. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 was driven primarily by higher

incentive compensation costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 increased to 16.2% from 16.1% for the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Excluding the impact of the 2015 restructuring charges, selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 would have increased to 16.2%, or 16.1% on a constant currency basis, from 15.0% for the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

Operating Income

Operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 decreased $4.5 million, or 24.9%, versus the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which positively impacted operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 by $0.4 million, operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 would have declined 27.0% versus the prior year period. This decrease in operating income was predominately the result of lower operating income in both Continental Europe and the UK partially offset by higher operating income in North America in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 as compared to the prior year period. Excluding the impact of the 2015 restructuring charges, our operating income margin in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 would have decreased to 4.4%, or 4.2% on a constant currency basis, from 7.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. This decline in operating income margin was driven primarily by the increase in marketing and selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue and to a lesser extent by the decline in gross profit margin as compared to the prior year period.

Interest Expense

Interest expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 decreased $1.1 million, or 3.5%, versus the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The decrease in interest expense was primarily driven by the decrease in our average debt outstanding, which decreased by $96.9 million to $2,201.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 from $2,298.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. This decrease was primarily due to the debt prepayments in March and June of fiscal 2015 partially offset by the draw down on our Revolving Facility in July of fiscal 2015. The effective interest rate on our debt, based on interest incurred (which includes amortization of our deferred financing costs) and our average borrowings during the first quarter of fiscal 2016 and the first quarter of fiscal 2015 and excluding the impact of our interest rate swap, decreased 0.05% per annum to 4.29% per annum at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to 4.34% per annum at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Including the impact of our interest rate swap, our effective interest rate on our debt, based on interest incurred (which includes amortization of our deferred financing costs) and our average borrowings during the first quarter of fiscal 2016 and the first quarter of fiscal 2015, decreased to 5.40% per annum at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2016 from 5.45% per annum at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2015. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Long-Term Debt” for additional details regarding interest rates on our debt outstanding, the Revolving Facility and payments on our debt. For additional details on our interest rate swap see “—“Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Early Extinguishment of Debt

In March 2015, we paid an aggregate amount of cash proceeds totaling $57.4 million plus an amount sufficient to pay accrued and unpaid interest on the amount prepaid to prepay $63.1 million in aggregate principal amount of term loans under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility (defined hereafter). As a result of this prepayment, we wrote-off fees of $0.3 million, incurred fees of $0.6 million and recorded a gain on early extinguishment of debt of $4.8 million, inclusive of these fees, in the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

Other (Income) Expense, Net

Other (income) expense, net, which consists primarily of the impact of foreign currency on intercompany transactions, resulted in income of $0.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 as compared to an expense of $0.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

Tax

Our effective tax rate was 34.2% for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 as compared to 38.1% for the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The decrease was due mainly to higher losses in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 in certain of our international subsidiaries for which a full valuation allowance was recorded.

Net Loss Attributable to the Company and Loss Per Share

Net loss attributable to the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 reflected a $5.3 million, or 97.9%, decline from net loss attributable to the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which positively impacted net loss attributable to the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 by $0.2 million, net loss attributable to the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 would have declined by 102.3% versus the prior year period. Excluding the impact of the 2015 restructuring

27

##### Table of Contents

charges and the gain on early extinguishment of debt from the first quarter of fiscal 2015, net loss attributable to the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 would have declined 122.5%, or 127.4% on a constant currency basis, from net loss attributable to the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. This decline in net loss attributable to the Company was primarily driven by the decrease in operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 versus the prior year period.

Diluted net loss per share in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 was a loss of $0.17 compared to a loss of $0.10 per share in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Excluding the impact of the 2015 restructuring charges and the gain on early extinguishment of debt from the first quarter of fiscal 2015, diluted net loss per share would have been a loss of $0.09 in the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

North America Performance

The increase in North America revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 versus the prior year period was driven by the increase in Service Revenues. The increase in North America Total Paid Weeks primarily resulted from the higher recruitments in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 versus the prior year period. Despite entering the quarter with a lower number of Incoming Subscribers at the beginning of fiscal 2016 versus the beginning of fiscal 2015, higher recruitments in the quarter resulted in a shift so that the number of End of Period Subscribers at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2016 was above that of the prior year period. Recruitments in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 were driven by the successful launch of our new Beyond the Scale program, which included the launch of SmartPoints. This new launch, coupled with the successful response to our partnership with Ms. Winfrey, are driving momentum in our North America business.

The decline in North America product sales and other in the first quarter of 2016 versus the prior year period was driven primarily by a decline in licensing revenue and Online advertising revenue partially offset by an increase in in-meeting product sales. In the first quarter of fiscal 2016, licensing revenue of $5.6 million declined $2.2 million, or 27.5%, from $7.7 million and Online advertising revenue of $0.3 million declined $2.1 million or, 88.6%, from $2.4 million in the prior year period. In-meeting product sales of $23.8 million increased by $2.2 million, or 10.1%, versus the prior year period. This increase resulted from an 18.0% attendance increase in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 as compared to the prior year period. Partially offsetting this increase was an in-meeting product sales per attendee decrease of 6.7% driven primarily by a decline in sales of activity trackers.

United Kingdom Performance

The decline in UK revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 versus the prior year period was driven by the decline in Service Revenues. The decline in UK Total Paid Weeks was driven by the lower number of Incoming Subscribers at the beginning of fiscal 2016 versus the beginning of fiscal 2015 coupled with lower recruitments in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 as compared to the prior year period as this market remains highly competitive.

The decline in UK product sales and other in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 versus the prior year period was driven by both the decline in in-meeting product sales and the decline in licensing revenue. In the first quarter of fiscal 2016, in-meeting product sales of $6.0 million decreased by $2.1 million, or 26.3%, versus the prior year period. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which negatively impacted in-meeting product sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 by $0.3 million, in-meeting product sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 would have declined 22.1% versus the prior year period. This decrease resulted primarily from a decline in product sales per attendee of 22.3%, or 17.9% on a constant currency basis, driven by the impact of the lower sales of consumable products and to a lesser extent from the attendance decline of 5.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 as compared to the prior year period. Licensing revenue of $2.2 million declined $0.9 million, or 30.1% (26.3% on a constant currency basis) from $3.1 million in the prior year period.

Continental Europe Performance

The decline in Continental Europe revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 versus the prior year period was driven by the decline in Service Revenues. The decrease in Continental Europe Service Revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 versus the prior year period was primarily the result of a decrease in Meeting Fees and to a lesser extent by a decrease in Online Subscription Revenues. This decrease in Meeting Fees was driven by the lower number of Incoming Subscribers at the beginning of fiscal 2016 versus the beginning of fiscal 2015 coupled with lower recruitments in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 as compared to the prior year period. The decrease in Online Subscription Revenues was driven by the lower number of Incoming Online Subscribers at the start of fiscal 2016 versus the start of fiscal 2015 partially offset by an increase in recruitments in the CE Online business in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 versus the prior year period. In response to soft performance in our largest CE markets, we changed our advertising creative and approach, which had an immediate effect on improving trends in our largest CE markets.

Continental Europe product sales and other in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 was driven primarily by a decline in in-meeting product sales. In-meeting product sales of $9.0 million decreased by $3.8 million, or 29.8%, versus the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, which negatively impacted in-meeting product sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 by $0.2 million, in-meeting product sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 would have declined 28.2% versus the prior year period. This decrease resulted in part from a decline in product sales per attendee of 18.5%, or 16.6% on a constant currency basis, driven by the impact of the lower sales of consumable products and in part from the attendance decline of 13.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 as compared to the prior year period.

Other Performance

The decline in Other revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 versus the prior year period was primarily driven by revenue declines in Asia Pacific. The increase in Other Total Paid Weeks was driven primarily by higher recruitments in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015 and also by the higher number of Incoming Subscribers at the beginning of fiscal 2016 versus the beginning of fiscal 2015. A change in promotional activities that negatively impacted the Service Revenues per paid week in both the Meetings and Online businesses was partially offset by the increase in Other Total Paid Weeks. The net impact of these items resulted in a decrease in Other Service Revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 versus the prior year period.

The decline in Other product sales and other in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 versus the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was driven in part by a decline in Asia Pacific in-meeting product sales and licensing revenue offset by an increase in revenue from our franchisees. Revenues from our franchisees totaled $3.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, an increase of $0.8 million, or 33.5%, from the prior year period, resulting from the same drivers that we are experiencing in our North America segment. In the first quarter of fiscal 2016, in-meeting product sales of $1.0 million decreased by $0.4 million, or 28.7% (19.7% on a constant currency basis), versus the prior year period driven in part by volume declines as well as a decline in product sales per attendee in Asia Pacific of 27.0%, or 18.8% in constant currency.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash flows provided by operating activities have historically supplied, and are expected to continue to supply, us with our primary source of liquidity. We use these cash flows, supplemented with long-term debt and short-term borrowings, to fund our operations and global initiatives, pay down debt and opportunistically engage in selective acquisitions. See “—Transformation Plan” for a discussion of our strategic initiatives. On October 30, 2013, we announced that we suspended our quarterly cash dividend, as described below (see “—Dividends and Stock Transactions” ). We believe that cash generated by our revenue forecast for fiscal 2016 of slightly above $1.2 billion, our continued cost focus, the launch of our 2016 winter season program innovation, and our cash on hand of $127.8 million at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2016 will provide us with sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations for the next twelve months. On April 1, 2016 we paid in full, with cash on hand, a principal amount of loans equal to $144.3 million, which constituted the entire remaining principal amount of loans outstanding under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility due April 2, 2016.

Balance Sheet Working Capital

The following table sets forth certain relevant measures of our balance sheet working capital at:

|  | April 2, |  |  | January 2, |  |  | Increase/ |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2016 |  |  | (Decrease) |
|  | (in millions) |
Total current assets |  | $ | 241.2 |  |  | $ | 351.5 |  |  | $ | (110.3 | )
Total current liabilities |  |  | 414.9 |  |  |  | 503.1 |  |  |  | (88.2 | )
Working capital deficit |  |  | (173.7 | ) |  |  | (151.6 | ) |  |  | 22.1 |
Cash and cash equivalents |  |  | 127.8 |  |  |  | 241.5 |  |  |  | (113.7 | )
Current portion of long-term debt |  |  | 69.0 |  |  |  | 213.3 |  |  |  | (144.3 | )
Working capital deficit, excluding change in cash and cash equivalents and current portion of long-term debt |  | $ | (232.5 | ) |  | $ | (179.8 | ) |  | $ | 52.7 |

We generally operate with negative working capital that is driven in part by our commitment and subscription plans which are our primary payment method. These plans require members and subscribers to pay us for meetings and Online subscription products, respectively, as applicable, before we pay for our obligations in the normal course of business. These prepayments are recorded as a current liability on our balance sheet which has resulted in, and in certain circumstances has helped drive, negative working capital. This core characteristic of our business model is expected to continue. However, during a period in which revenue is declining, we get less working capital benefit from this deferred revenue.

Including changes in cash and cash equivalents and the current portion of long-term debt, our working capital deficit increased by $22.1 million to $173.7 million at April 2, 2016 from $151.6 million at January 2, 2016. This increase in our working capital deficit was driven in large part by the principal debt maturity payment of $144.3 million (due April 2, 2016) paid in full, with cash on hand, April 1, 2016, thereby lowering cash by $113.7 million at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2016 from year-end fiscal 2015.

Excluding the changes in cash and cash equivalents and current portion of long-term debt at both dates, the working capital deficit at April 2, 2016 increased by $52.7 million to $232.5 million from $179.8 million at January 2, 2016. The factors contributing to this increase in our working capital deficit were: (i) a $29.1 million increase in operational liabilities and other arising primarily from higher accounts payable balances versus year-end fiscal 2015 primarily driven by Winter season marketing spend, (ii) a $20.9 million increase in deferred revenue driven by a combination of seasonality and improved business performance, (iii) a $14.2 million increase in the derivative payable and (iv) a $7.6 million decline in other current assets driven primarily by the receipt of the German tax withholding receivable collected during the first quarter of fiscal 2016. These factors were partially offset by: (i) an $8.4 million decrease in accrued salaries and wages driven by the payout of the 2015 bonus, and (ii) a $10.7 million increase in prepaid income taxes in the first quarter of fiscal 2016.

Cash Flows

The following table sets forth a summary of the Company’s cash flows for the three months ended:

|  | April 2, 2016 |  |  | April 4, 2015 |
|  | (in millions) |
Net cash provided by (used for) operating activities |  | $ | 43.3 |  |  | $ | (7.4 | )
Net cash used for investing activities |  | $ | (9.0 | ) |  | $ | (13.5 | )
Net cash used for financing activities |  | $ | (149.6 | ) |  | $ | (65.1 | )

Operating Activities

First Quarter of Fiscal 2016

Cash flows provided by operating activities of $43.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 reflected an increase of $50.7 million from $7.4 million of cash flows used for operating activities in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily the result of $55.4 million of benefit from year-over-year change in working capital in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 as compared to the prior year period.

First Quarter of Fiscal 2015

Cash flows used for operating activities of $7.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 reflected a decrease of $88.3 million from $80.9 million of cash flows provided by operating activities in the first quarter of fiscal 2014. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily the result of $27.0 million of lower net income attributable to the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 as compared to the prior year period and year-over year working capital deficit decreases of $61.6 million.

Investing Activities

First Quarter of Fiscal 2016

Net cash used for investing activities totaled $9.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, a decrease of $4.5 million as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015. This decrease was in part attributable a $2.8 million investment in acquisitions in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 versus no investment in acquisitions in the current year period. In addition, due to the significant progress against our transformation plan in fiscal 2015, our technology and operating infrastructure required less investment in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

First Quarter of Fiscal 2015

Net cash used for investing activities totaled $13.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015, a decrease of $4.4 million as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2014. This decrease was primarily attributable to the lower aggregate investment in acquisitions in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 versus the prior year period. For additional information on our acquisitions, see “Item 6. Selected Financial Data” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2015.

Financing Activities

First Quarter of Fiscal 2016

Net cash used for financing activities totaled $149.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, primarily due to a $144.3 million debt repayment in connection with the Tranche B-1 Term Facility and other scheduled debt repayments of $5.2 million in connection with the Tranche B-2 Term Facility in the first quarter of fiscal 2016.

First Quarter of Fiscal 2015

Net cash used for financing activities totaled $65.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015, primarily due to a $59.9 million debt prepayment in connection with the debt tender offer discussed below and scheduled debt repayments of $5.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. For a discussion of the debt tender offer, see “—Long-Term Debt”.

Long-Term Debt

We currently plan to meet our long-term debt obligations by using cash flows provided by operating activities and opportunistically using other means to repay or refinance our obligations as we determine appropriate. On April 1, 2016, we paid in full, with cash on hand, a principal amount of loans equal to $144.3 million, which constituted the entire remaining principal amount of loans outstanding under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility due April 2, 2016.

The following schedule sets forth our long-term debt obligations at April 2, 2016:

Pursuant to the retrospective adoption of FASB guidance on debt issuance costs, we reclassified unamortized debt issuance costs associated with Term Facilities (defined hereafter) in our previously reported Consolidated Balance Sheet in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2015.

Our credit facilities at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2013 consisted of the following term loan facilities and revolving credit facilities: a tranche B loan, or Term B Loan, a tranche C loan, or Term C Loan, a tranche D loan, or Term D Loan, a tranche E loan, or Term E Loan, a tranche F loan, or Term F Loan, revolving credit facility A-1, or Revolver A-1, and revolving credit facility A-2, or Revolver A-2.

On April 2, 2013, we refinanced our credit facilities pursuant to a new Credit Agreement, or as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the Credit Agreement, among the Company, the lenders party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and an issuing bank, The Bank of Nova Scotia, as revolving agent, swingline lender and an issuing bank, and the other parties thereto. The Credit Agreement provides for (a) a revolving credit facility (including swing line loans and letters of credit) in an initial aggregate principal amount of $250.0 million that will mature on April 2, 2018, or the Revolving Facility, (b) an initial term B-1 loan credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $300.0 million that matured on April 2, 2016, or Tranche B-1 Term Facility, and (c) an initial term B-2 loan credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $2,100.0 million that will mature on April 2, 2020, or Tranche B-2 Term Facility. We refer herein to the Tranche B-1 Term Facility together with the Tranche B-2 Term Facility as the Term Facilities, and the Term Facilities and Revolving Facility collectively as the WWI Credit Facility. In connection with this refinancing, we used the proceeds from borrowings under the Term Facilities to pay off a total of $2,399.9 million of outstanding loans, consisting of $128.8 million of Term B Loans, $110.6 million of Term C Loans, $117.6 million of Term D Loans, $1,125.0 million of Term E Loans, $817.9 million of Term F Loans, $21.2 million of loans under the Revolver A-1 and $78.8 million of loans under the Revolver A-2. Following the refinancing of a total of $2,399.9 million of loans, at April 2, 2013, we had $2,400.0 million debt outstanding under the Term Facilities and $248.8 million of availability under the Revolving Facility. We incurred fees of $44.8 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2013 in connection with this refinancing. In the second quarter of fiscal 2013, we wrote-off fees associated with this refinancing which resulted in our recording a charge of $21.7 million in early extinguishment of debt.

On September 26, 2014, we entered into an agreement with certain lenders amending the Credit Agreement that, among other things, eliminated the Financial Covenant (as defined in the Credit Agreement) with respect to the Revolving Facility. In connection with this amendment, we wrote-off deferred financing fees of approximately $1.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2014. Concurrently with and in order to effect this amendment, we reduced the amount of the Revolving Facility from $250.0 million to $50.0 million.

Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, depending on our Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement), we are obligated to offer to prepay the Term Facilities in an aggregate amount determined by our excess cash flow (as defined in the Credit Agreement). On March 13, 2015, we commenced an offer to prepay at a discount to par up to $75.0 million in aggregate principal amount of term loans outstanding under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility. On March 20, 2015, we accepted offers with a

33

##### Table of Contents

discount equal to or greater than 9.00% in respect of such term loans. On March 25, 2015, we paid an aggregate amount of cash proceeds totaling $57.4 million plus an amount sufficient to pay accrued and unpaid interest on the amount prepaid to prepay $63.1 million in aggregate principal amount of such term loans under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility. This expenditure reduced, on a dollar for dollar basis, our $59.7 million obligation to make a mandatory excess cash flow prepayment offer to the term loan lenders under the terms of the Credit Agreement. In addition, we made a voluntary prepayment at par on March 25, 2015 of $2.5 million in respect of such term loans under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility to reduce the remaining excess cash flow prepayment obligation for fiscal 2014. As a result of this prepayment, we wrote-off fees of $0.3 million, incurred fees of $0.6 million and recorded a gain on early extinguishment of debt of $4.7 million, inclusive of these fees, in the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

On June 17, 2015, we commenced another offer to prepay at a discount to par up to $229.0 million in aggregate principal amount of term loans outstanding under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility. On June 22, 2015, we accepted offers with a discount equal to or greater than 9.00% in respect of such term loans. On June 26, 2015, we paid an aggregate amount of cash proceeds totaling $77.2 million plus an amount sufficient to pay accrued and unpaid interest on the amount prepaid to prepay $84.9 million in aggregate principal amount of such term loans under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility. As a result of this prepayment, we wrote-off fees of $0.3 million, incurred fees of $0.6 million and recorded a gain on early extinguishment of debt of $6.7 million, inclusive of these fees, in the second quarter of fiscal 2015.

On July 14, 2015, we drew down the $48.0 million available on our Revolving Facility in order to enhance our cash position and to provide additional financial flexibility. The revolver borrowing has been classified as a short-term liability in consideration of the fact that the terms of the Revolving Facility require an assessment as to whether there have been any material adverse changes with respect to the Company in connection with our monthly interest elections. Although the revolver borrowing has been classified as a short-term liability, absent any change in fact and circumstance, we have the ability to extend and not repay the Revolving Facility until its due date of April 2, 2018.

On April 1, 2016, we paid in full, with cash on hand, a principal amount of loans equal to $144.3 million, which constituted the entire remaining principal amount of loans outstanding under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility due April 2, 2016.

At April 2, 2016, under the WWI Credit Facility, we had $2,037.0 million outstanding consisting entirely of a term loan under the Tranche B-2 Term Facility, and borrowings of $48.0 million outstanding under the Revolving Facility. In addition, at April 2, 2016, the Revolving Facility had $1.8 million in issued but undrawn letters of credit outstanding thereunder and $0.2 million in available unused commitments thereunder. The proceeds from borrowings under the Revolving Facility (including swing line loans and letters of credit) are available to be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

At April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, our debt consisted entirely of variable-rate instruments. Interest rate swaps were entered into to hedge a portion of the cash flow exposure associated with our variable-rate borrowings. The weighted average interest rate (which includes amortization of deferred financing costs) on our debt, exclusive of the impact of swaps, was approximately 4.32% and 4.34% per annum based on interest rates at April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, respectively. The weighted average interest rate (which includes amortization of deferred financing costs) on our debt, including the impact of swaps, was approximately 5.25% and 5.45% per annum based on interest rates at April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, respectively.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to, at our option, LIBOR plus an applicable margin or a base rate plus an applicable margin. LIBOR under the Tranche B-2 Term Facility is subject to a minimum interest rate of 0.75% and the base rate under the Tranche B-2 Term Facility is subject to a minimum interest rate of 1.75%. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, in the event we receive a corporate rating of BB- (or lower) from S&P and a corporate rating of Ba3 (or lower) from Moody’s, the applicable margin relating to both of the Term Facilities would increase by 25 basis points. On February 21, 2014, both S&P and Moody’s issued revised corporate ratings of the Company of B+ and B1, respectively. As a result, effective February 21, 2014, the applicable margin on borrowings under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility went from 2.75% to 3.00% and on borrowings under the Tranche B-2 Term Facility went from 3.00% to 3.25%. The applicable margin relating to the Revolving Facility will fluctuate depending upon our Consolidated Leverage Ratio. At April 1, 2016, the date of payment of the principal amount of loans outstanding thereunder and discussed above, borrowings under the Tranche B-1 Term Facility bore interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 3.00%. At April 2, 2016, borrowings under the Tranche B-2 Term Facility bore interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 3.25%. Based on our Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of April 2, 2016, borrowings under the Revolving Facility bore interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 2.50%. On a quarterly basis, we will pay a commitment fee to the lenders under the Revolving Facility in respect of unutilized commitments thereunder, which commitment fee will fluctuate, but in no event exceed 0.50% per annum, depending upon our Consolidated Leverage Ratio. At our Consolidated Leverage Ratio of 7.42:1.00 as of April 2, 2016, the commitment fee was 0.50% per annum. We also will pay customary letter of credit fees and fronting fees under the Revolving Facility.

The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants including covenants that, in certain circumstances, restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends on and redeem capital stock, make other payments, including investments, sell our assets and enter into consolidations, mergers and transfers of all or substantially all of our assets. The WWI Credit Facility does not require us to meet any financial maintenance covenants and is guaranteed by certain of our existing and future subsidiaries. Substantially all of our assets secure the WWI Credit Facility.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

Our accumulated other comprehensive loss includes net loss, changes in the fair value of derivative instruments and the effects of foreign currency translations. At April 2, 2016 and April 4, 2015, the cumulative balance of changes in fair value of derivative instruments, net of taxes, was $(31,872) and $(31,536), respectively. At April 2, 2016 and April 4, 2015, the cumulative balance of the effects of foreign currency translations, net of taxes, was $(8,289) and $(5,284), respectively.

Dividends and Stock Transactions

On October 30, 2013, we announced that we suspended our quarterly cash dividend. We currently intend to use the related annual cash savings to preserve financial flexibility while funding our strategic growth initiatives and building cash for future debt repayments. Any future determination to declare and pay dividends will be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors, after taking into account our financial results, capital requirements and other factors it may deem relevant. The WWI Credit Facility also contains restrictions on our ability to pay dividends on our common stock.

On October 9, 2003, our Board of Directors authorized, and we announced, a program to repurchase up to $250.0 million of our outstanding common stock. On each of June 13, 2005, May 25, 2006 and October 21, 2010, our Board of Directors authorized, and we announced, adding $250.0 million to this program. The repurchase program allows for shares to be purchased from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. No shares will be purchased from Artal Holdings Sp. z o.o., Succursale de Luxembourg and its parents and subsidiaries under this program. The repurchase program currently has no expiration date. During the three months ended April 2, 2016 and April 4, 2015, we repurchased no shares of our common stock in the open market under this program.

The WWI Credit Facility provides that we are permitted to pay dividends and extraordinary dividends, as well as repurchase shares of our common stock, so long as we are not in default under the Credit Agreement. However, payment of extraordinary dividends and stock repurchases shall not exceed $100.0 million in the aggregate in any fiscal year if our Consolidated Leverage Ratio is greater than 3.25:1. As of April 2, 2016, our Consolidated Leverage Ratio was greater than 3.25:1 and we expect that it will remain above 3.25:1 for the foreseeable future.

EBITDAS

EBITDAS, defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation, in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 was $29.7 million, as compared to $38.5 million in the prior year period. The table below sets forth the calculation:

##### Table of Contents

|  | Three Months Ended |
|  | April 2, |  |  | April 4, |
EBITDAS |  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |
Net Loss |  | $ | (10.8 | ) |  | $ | (5.4 | )
Interest |  |  | 30.0 |  |  |  | 31.1 |
Taxes |  |  | (5.6 | ) |  |  | (3.4 | )

Stock-based Compensation |  |  | 3.2 |  |  |  | 2.3 |
|  | $ | 29.7 |  |  | $ | 38.5 |

Reducing leverage is a clear capital structure priority for the Company. As part of our commitment to de-levering, we are targeting a year-end 2018 Net Debt/EBITDAS ratio of less than 4.5x, based on improved operating performance and cash generation. We present EBITDAS because we consider this to be a useful supplemental measure of our performance. In addition, we believe EBITDAS is useful to investors, analysts and rating agencies in measuring the ability of a company to meet its debt service obligations.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As part of our ongoing business, we do not participate in transactions that generate relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities.

SEASONALITY

Our business is seasonal due to the importance of the winter season to our overall recruitment environment. Our advertising schedule generally supports the three key recruitment-generating seasons of the year: winter, spring and fall, with winter having the highest concentration of advertising spending.

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As of April 2, 2016, the market risk disclosures appearing in “Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2015 have not materially changed from January 2, 2016.

On April 1, 2016, we paid in full, with cash on hand, a principal amount of loans equal to $144.3 million, which amount constituted the entire remaining principal amount of loans outstanding under our Tranche B-1 Term Facility. At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2016, borrowings under the Tranche B-2 Term Facility bore interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 3.25%. For the Tranche B-2 Term Facility, the minimum interest rate for LIBOR applicable to such facility pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement is set at 0.75%, referred to herein as the B-2 LIBOR Floor. In addition, at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2016, our interest rate swap in effect had a notional amount of $1.5 billion. Accordingly, as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2016, based on the amount of variable rate debt including the impact of the interest rate swap and the B-2 LIBOR Floor, a hypothetical 50 basis

##### Table of Contents

point increase in interest rates would increase annual interest expense by approximately $2.3 million and a hypothetical 50 basis point decrease in interest rates would decrease annual interest expense by approximately $0.1 million. This increase or decrease is primarily driven by our Tranche B-1 Term Facility which was paid in full during the first quarter of fiscal 2016. The change in market risk exposure from the end of fiscal 2015 was due to lower debt balance on the Tranche B-2 Term Facility.

ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of April 2, 2016, the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2016. Based upon that evaluation and subject to the foregoing, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2016, the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In re Weight Watchers International, Inc. Securities Litigation

In March 2014, two substantially identical putative class action complaints alleging violation of the federal securities laws were filed by individual shareholders against the Company, certain of the Company’s current and former officers and directors, and Artal Group, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The complaints were purportedly filed on behalf of all purchasers of the Company’s common stock, no par value per share, between February 14, 2012 and October 30, 2013, inclusive (referred to herein as the Class Period). The complaints allege that, during the Class Period, the defendants disseminated materially false and misleading statements and/or concealed material adverse facts. The complaints allege claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. The plaintiffs seek to recover unspecified damages on behalf of the class members. In June 2014, the Court consolidated the cases and appointed lead plaintiffs and lead counsel. On August 12, 2014, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint that, among other things, reduced the Class Period to between February 14, 2012 and February 13, 2013 and dropped all current officers and certain directors previously named as defendants. On October 14, 2014, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss. The plaintiffs filed an opposition to the defendants’ motion to dismiss on November 24, 2014 and the defendants filed a reply in support of their motion to dismiss on December 23, 2014. The Company continues to believe that the suits are without merit and intends to defend them vigorously.

Tracey Mead, Derivatively on Behalf of Weight Watchers International, Inc. vs. Artal Group et. al. and Weight Watchers International, Inc.

On May 29, 2014 and June 23, 2014, the Company received shareholder litigation demand letters alleging breaches of fiduciary duties and unjust enrichment by Company officers and directors and Artal, to the alleged injury of the Company. The allegations in the letters relate to those contained in the ongoing federal securities litigation described above. In response to the letters, pursuant to Virginia law, the Board of Directors has created a special committee to review and evaluate the facts and circumstances surrounding the claims made in the demand letters. The special committee has decided to undertake its review after receiving a decision on defendants’ motion to dismiss in the federal securities litigation given the overlapping issues.

On August 11, 2015, a purported shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in New York State Court in Westchester County. The complaint alleges that certain Company directors and executive officers breached their various fiduciary duties by knowingly causing the Company to repurchase shares from Artal and from certain executive officers at artificially inflated prices in connection with a tender offer made to all shareholders. The complaint seeks an order for the defendants to disgorge all profits made from selling Company stock between March 16, 2012 and April 9, 2012, as well as an award for damages sustained by the alleged breaches of fiduciary duty. The parties sought to stay this suit pending a decision on defendants’ motion to dismiss in the federal securities litigation asserting similar allegations. The Court denied the stay, but at the preliminary court conference on December 17, 2015, the Court granted an adjournment. The next court conference is scheduled for June 24, 2016. The Company believes that the suit is without merit and intends to defend it vigorously.

Raymond Roberts v. Weight Watchers International, Inc.

On January 7, 2016, an OnlinePlus member filed a putative class action complaint against the Company in the Supreme Court of New York, New York County, asserting class claims for breach of contract and violations of the New York General Business Law.

On February 5, 2016, the Company removed the case to the United States District Court, Sothern District of New York. On March 18, 2016, the plaintiff filed an amended complaint, alleging that, as a result of the temporary glitches in the Company’s website and app in November and December 2015, the Company has: (1) breached its Subscription Agreement with its OnlinePlus members; and (2) engaged in deceptive acts and practices in violation of Section 350 of the New York General Business Law. The plaintiff is seeking unspecified actual, punitive and statutory damages, as well as his attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection with this action. The Company filed a motion to dismiss on May 6, 2016. The Company believes that the suit is without merit and intends to defend it vigorously.

Other Litigation Matters

Due to the nature of the Company’s activities, it is also, at times, subject to pending and threatened legal actions, including patent and other intellectual property actions, that arise out of the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the disposition of any such matters is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. 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 1A. | RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes in the risk factors from those detailed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2015.

ITEM 2. | UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
