Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for reporting interim information on Form 10-Q. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. In preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we consistently applied the accounting policies described in our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended January 2, 2022 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 16, 2022, with the exception of the Revenue Recognition policy which has been updated to reflect the launch of the House Introduction Credits, as explained in further detail below.

 

We operate on a fiscal year calendar consisting of a 52-or 53-week period ending on the last Sunday in December or the first Sunday in January of the next calendar year. In a 52-week fiscal year, each quarter contains 13 weeks of operations; in a 53-week fiscal year, each of the first, second and third quarters includes 13 weeks of operations and the fourth quarter includes 14 weeks of operations.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by US GAAP. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary for the fair presentation of the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive loss, of changes in redeemable shares and shareholders’ equity (deficit), and of cash flows for the periods presented. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2022.

The results of operations for the 13- and 26-week periods ended July 3, 2022 and July 4, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.

The unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended July 3, 2022 and the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 3, 2022 include the correction of an error related to the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the 13 weeks ended April 3, 2022 ("Q1 2022"), and the consolidated financial statements as of and for the 52 weeks ended January 2, 2022 ("Fiscal 2021"), 53 weeks ended January 3, 2021 ("Fiscal 2020"), and 52 weeks ended December 29, 2019 ("Fiscal 2019"). The error relates to the correction of the estimation of the historical operating lease liabilities which resulted in the overstatement of historical operating lease liability and assets by $12 million and $5 million, respectively, as of Q1 2022; $11 million and $5 million, respectively, as of Fiscal 2021; $18 million and $13 million, respectively, as of Fiscal 2020; and $17 million and $14 million, respectively as of Fiscal 2019. The correction of this error is presented within operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 3, 2022 amounting to $5 million and $12 million, respectively. The error also resulted in the overstatement of operating lease expenses, with a cumulative impact of $6 million for the 13 weeks ended April 3, 2022, $6 million for Fiscal 2021, $5 million for Fiscal 2020 and $3 million for Fiscal 2019. The correction of this cumulative error is presented within In-House operating expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended July 3, 2022.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation with no impact on previously reported net loss or cash flows, and no material impact on financial position.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

House Introduction Credits

 

New members admitted on or after April 4, 2022 are required to purchase House Introduction Credits ("House Introduction Credits") as part of their membership, per the House rules. House Introduction Credits are credits of an equivalent value to cash within Houses and are redeemable against purchases of food and beverage items and bedroom stays at the Houses. House Introduction Credits expire after three months from the date of issuance, where legally permitted in the regions we operate, if not utilized or if the Company terminates a member's House membership. House Introduction Credits are recognized upon issuance as deferred revenue on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Revenue from House Introduction Credits are recognized as In-House revenues when redeemed by members, and as breakage revenue within Membership revenues upon expiration or in the period when we are able to reliably estimate expected breakage and further redemption is deemed remote.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The going concern basis of presentation assumes that we will continue in operation for at least a period of 12 months after the date these financial statements are issued, and contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

We have experienced net losses and significant cash outflows from cash used in operating activities over the past years as we develop our Houses. During the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended July 3, 2022, the Company incurred a consolidated net loss of $84 million and $144 million, respectively. During the 26 weeks ended July 3, 2022, the Company had positive cash flow from operations of $14 million. As of July 3, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $1,164 million, cash and cash equivalents of $259 million, and restricted cash of $7 million.

In addition, we have had to temporarily close some of our Houses, hotels and public restaurants, at different times in prior periods due to continued effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has and may continue to have an impact on our revenues. At the date of issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, all of our Houses are open (with some limited short-term exceptions unrelated to the COVID-19 pandemic).

In assessing the going concern basis of preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended July 3, 2022, we have taken into consideration detailed cash flow forecasts for the Company, the Company’s forecast compliance with bank covenants, and the continued availability of committed and accessible working capital to the Company.

We have considered the current global economic and political uncertainties, specifically including inflationary pressures on consumables purchased and wages, as well as any further possible impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic and the Company has factored these in when it undertook an assessment of the cash flow forecasts covering a period of at least 12 months from the date these financial statements are issued. Cash flow forecasts have been prepared based on a range of scenarios including, but not limited to, no further debt or equity funding, macro-economic dynamics, possible temporary closures of our properties from any further impact of the COVID-19 pandemic (which impacts the Company’s ability to keep open Houses and maintain a level of operations consistent with pre COVID-19 times), cost reductions, both limited and extensive, and a combination of these different scenarios.

We believe that our projected cash flows and the actions available to management to further control expenditure, as necessary, provide the Company with sufficient working capital (including cash and cash equivalents) to achieve its plans of continued recovery from the impact of the pandemic and mitigating the impacts of inflationary pressures and consumer confidences, subject to the following key factors:

• the continued access to Houses in a manner that is compliant with local laws and regulations, including the relaxing of mandatory capacity constraints, as well as anticipated demand;

• the level of in-House sales activity (primarily sales of food and beverage) that, even after opening, may be subject to reduced capacity as a result of any future restrictions;

• the continued high level of membership retention and renewals, together with members continuing their current spending patterns; and

• the implementation of cost containment and reductions measures that are aligned with the anticipated levels of capacity.

 

Furthermore, available cash as a result of completed financing events, includes the exercising of an option on March 9, 2022 for issued additional notes under the existing senior secured notes for $100 million and available additional liquidity, and access to an undrawn revolving credit facility of £71 million ($86 million) (see Note 11, Debt, for additional information).

 

This, together with the Company’s wider sufficient financial resources, an established business model, access to capital and the measures that have been put in place to control costs, mean that we believe that the Company is able to continue in operational existence, meet its liabilities as they fall due, operate within its existing facilities, and meet all of its covenant requirements for a period of at least 12 months from the date these financial statements are issued.

 

Based on the above, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, we continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended July 3, 2022.
