Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On July 7, 2025, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of WW International, Inc. (the “Company”) unanimously elected Fallon O’Connor-Brooks as a director of the Company, effective July 8, 2025, to serve until the Company’s 2026 annual meeting of shareholders. There were no arrangements or understandings pursuant to which Ms. O’Connor was elected as a director, and there are no related party transactions between the Company and Ms. O’Connor reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. The Board has affirmatively determined that Ms. O’Connor qualifies as an “independent director” under Nasdaq listing standards. Concurrent with her appointment as a director of the Company, Ms. O’Connor was also appointed as a member of the Board’s Strategy and Finance Committee (the “SF Committee”), which the Board newly established effective July 1, 2025.
Ms. O’Connor will receive the Company’s standard cash compensation provided to the Company’s non-employee directors for service on the Board (which currently includes an annual cash retainer of $90,000 payable quarterly), as described further in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 21, 2025. For Ms. O’Connor’s service as a member of the SF Committee, she is entitled to receive $10,000 per year, payable quarterly, in cash. Such amounts shall be prorated with respect to fiscal 2025 based on her time of service on the Board and its committees during fiscal 2025. For fiscal 2025, it is expected that the Board will establish a new equity compensation program for non-employee directors pursuant to which non-employee directors, including Ms. O’Connor, will be compensated.
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
