“We are excited for the future of the Company as we execute on our next phase of growth, which will focus on deepening brand awareness, further increasing innovation, and expanding our international footprint,” said Mr. Saunders. “We delivered a record third quarter performance, which speaks to the underlying strength of the business. We are building an enduring and premier company in the category of beauty health.”

Mr. Saunders continued, “We thank Clint for his efforts over the past five years, particularly as he guided the business through the COVID-19 pandemic and led the Company through the business combination earlier this year. He helped create a strong platform as we continue to grow, both organically and through select acquisitions. BeautyHealth is the clear leader in a category we created.”

Mr. Carnell said, “It has been my honor to be part of building this category creating brand, and I am proud of what we have accomplished over the past five years. BeautyHealth is positioned stronger than ever to succeed, as we continue to execute across key strategic initiatives. While the Board conducts its search for a new permanent CEO, I look forward to working with our talented management team to ensure a seamless transition.”
