Margarate Kaczor's questions to Beauty Health Co (SKIN) leadership • Q4 2024
Question
Represented by Max, Margarate Kaczor's question focused on the 2025 outlook for operating expenses and cash flow, asking if further leverage is possible and what the plans are for cash usage.
Answer
Executive Michael Monahan indicated that 2025 guidance implies adjusted EBITDA margin improvement driven by higher gross margins, not OpEx leverage. He expects OpEx dollars to decline but remain stable as a percentage of sales. For cash flow, he projected the company to be roughly free cash flow neutral for the full year, with a seasonal use of cash in the first half followed by cash generation in the second half.
