Inspirato Announces Third Quarter Results

DENVER, Nov. 06, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inspirato Incorporated (“Inspirato” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: ISPO), the innovative luxury travel subscription brand, today announced its 2023 third quarter financial and operating results.

Except as otherwise stated, all financial results discussed below are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, or GAAP. As supplemental information, we have provided certain additional non-GAAP financial measures in this press release’s supplemental tables, and such supplemental tables include a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to our GAAP results. The sum of individual metrics may not always equal total amounts indicated due to rounding.

2023 Third Quarter Highlights:

  • Completed $25 million investment from Capital One Ventures, solidifying new strategic partnership and contributing to a cash balance of $51 million as of September 30, 2023.
  • Launched Inspirato Rewards, the Company’s first ever member loyalty program offering savings and additional travel benefits based on tiered status levels.
  • Third quarter 2023 total revenue of $83 million, an 11% year-over-year decrease and 2% decrease compared to the second quarter of 2023. In the third quarter, approximatively $1.8 million of revenue was deferred related to Inspirato Rewards.
  • Total Nights Delivered of 46,400, a year-over-year decrease of 9% and 2% decrease compared to the second quarter of 2023.
  • Residence occupancy was 73% in the third quarter of 2023 compared to 81% in the third quarter of 2022 and 72% in the second quarter of 2023.
  • Residence average daily rate (“ADR”) was approximately $1,600 in the third quarter of 2023 compared to $1,800 in the comparable 2022 period and $1,750 in the second quarter of 2023.
  • Total Active Subscriptions of approximately 14,500 were comprised of approximately 11,800 Inspirato Club subscriptions and approximately 2,700 Inspirato Pass subscriptions. Inspirato Club and Pass subscriptions as of September 30 represent year-over-year decreases of 5% and 29%, respectively.
  • Inspirato for Good (“IFG”) and Inspirato for Business (“IFB”) had third quarter contracted sales of $1.3 million and $4.4 million, respectively. IFG is subject to seasonality and, as expected, sales decreased from the second quarter of 2023 while IFB sales increased from the second quarter of 2023. Year-to-date, IFG has sold approximately 2,500 travel and membership packages.
  • Changes to executive leadership and a reduction in force resulting in $3.7 million of severance-related expenses in the third quarter.
  • Net loss of $25 million in the third quarter of 2023, compared to a net loss of $7.3 million in the comparable 2022 period.
  • Adjusted EBITDA loss, a non-GAAP financial measure defined below, of $9.2 million in the third quarter of 2023 compared to Adjusted EBITDA loss of $6.8 million in the third quarter of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA loss was larger than the prior year due to the deferral of $1.8 million of revenue related to Inspirato Rewards and $3.7 million of severance-related expenses.

Management Commentary

Chief Executive Officer Eric Grosse commented, “I’m incredibly excited about the opportunity to lead Inspirato. For many years, we have worked tirelessly to cement ourselves as a leader in the world of luxury travel, all while creating an exceptional and differentiated traveler experience. As we look ahead, our initial focus is on bolstering our liquidity position, improving operational efficiencies and rebuilding revenue momentum, all while strengthening our core member value proposition. Capital One’s $25 million investment and strategic partnership is merely the first step in achieving these objectives.”

“We continue to execute against our plan of improving operating efficiencies and are finally on the cusp of realizing material cost savings,” added Chief Financial Officer Robert Kaiden. “While our third quarter results included several non-recurring expenses, we beat our internal expectations and through our efforts, got a glimpse of an improved travel mix within our portfolio that, if continued, further increases our confidence in achieving our profitability goals.”

2023 Guidance

For full-year 2023, Inspirato anticipates total revenue between $320 million and $340 million. The Company anticipates a full-year 2023 Adjusted EBITDA loss between $30 million and $45 million. These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially. Refer to the Forward-Looking Statements section below for information on the factors that could cause Inspirato’s actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA is a forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure. The Company is unable to reconcile forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA to net income, its most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure, without unreasonable effort, as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, reconciling items such as equity-based compensation expense. However, it is important to note that material changes to reconciling items could have a significant effect on Inspirato’s future GAAP results.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to Inspirato’s results determined in accordance with GAAP, Inspirato uses Adjusted Net Loss, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Free Cash Flow as part of its overall assessment of its performance, including the preparation of its annual operating budget and quarterly forecasts, to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies and to communicate with its board of directors concerning its business and financial performance. Inspirato believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors about its business and financial performance, enhance their overall understanding of Inspirato’s past performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to metrics used by Inspirato’s management in their financial and operational decision making. Inspirato is presenting these non-GAAP financial measures to assist investors in seeing its business and financial performance through the eyes of management, and because Inspirato believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in comparing results of operations of its business over multiple periods with other companies in its industry.

There are limitations related to the use of these non-GAAP financial measures, including that they exclude significant expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in Inspirato’s financial measures. Other companies may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to calculate their financial performance, and therefore, Inspirato’s non-GAAP financial measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Thus, these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to any measures derived in accordance with GAAP.

Inspirato compensates for these limitations by providing a reconciliation of Adjusted Net Loss, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBTIDA Margin and Free Cash Flow to their respective related GAAP financial measures. Inspirato encourages investors and others to review its business, results of operations, and financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure, and to view Adjusted Net Loss, Adjusted EBITDA loss, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Free Cash Flow in conjunction with their respective related GAAP financial measures.

Adjusted Net Loss. Adjusted Net Loss is a non-GAAP financial measure that Inspirato defines as net loss and comprehensive loss less warrant fair value gains and losses and asset impairment.

The above items are excluded from Inspirato’s Adjusted Net Loss measure because management believes that these costs and expenses are not indicative of core operating performance and do not reflect the underlying economics of Inspirato’s business.

Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that Inspirato defines as net income (loss) and comprehensive loss less interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, equity-based compensation expense, warrant fair value gains and losses, asset impairment, and public company readiness expenses.

The above items are excluded from Inspirato’s Adjusted EBITDA measure because management believes that these costs and expenses are not indicative of core operating performance and do not reflect the underlying economics of Inspirato’s business.

Free Cash Flow. Inspirato defines Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment and development of internal-use software. Inspirato believes that Free Cash Flow is a meaningful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated from operations, after purchases of property and equipment and development of internal-use software, that can be used for strategic initiatives. Inspirato’s Free Cash Flow is impacted by the timing of bookings because it collects travel revenue between the time of booking and 30 days before a stay or experience occurs. See below for reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures.

Key Business and Other Operating Metrics

Inspirato uses a number of operating and financial metrics, including the following key business metrics, to evaluate its business, measure its performance, identify trends affecting its business, formulate financial projections and business plans, and make strategic decisions. Inspirato regularly reviews and may adjust processes for calculating its internal metrics to improve their accuracy.

Active Subscriptions. Inspirato uses Active Subscriptions to assess the adoption of its subscription offerings, which is a key factor in assessing penetration of the market in which it operates and a key driver of revenue. Inspirato defines Active Subscriptions as subscriptions as of the measurement date that are paid in full, as well as those for which Inspirato expects payment for renewal.

Controlled Accommodations. Controlled Accommodations includes leased residences, hotel penthouses, suites and rooms, and residences under net rate agreements, including those that have executed agreements but have not yet been released for booking by Inspirato’s members.

Total Nights Delivered. Total Nights Delivered includes all Paid, Inspirato Pass, Inspirato for Good, Inspirato for Business, employee and other complimentary nights in all residences or hotels.
