On Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year Results, and the Filing of its Annual Report on Form 20-F for 2024
-
On delivers strong full year 2024 results, exceeding its latest outlook across all metrics. Net sales landed at CHF 2,318.3 million, reflecting a full year growth rate of 29.4% on a reported basis and 33.2% on a constant currency basis. On achieves a gross profit margin of 60.6%, net income of CHF 242.3 million, and an adjusted EBITDA margin of 16.7%, and further concludes the year with a strong cash balance nearing CHF 1 billion. These results underscore On’s ability to drive continued strong growth alongside increasing profitability and significant cash flow generation.
-
In the fourth quarter, On’s net sales increased to CHF 606.6 million, growing by 35.7% year-over-year on a reported basis and 40.6% on a constant currency basis. The strong performance was supported by On’s ability to convert on the rapid rise in brand awareness across the globe. The significant brand momentum drove strong traffic to On’s e-commerce channel and global retail stores, resulting in a record high DTC share of 48.8% of net sales in the fourth quarter.
-
Driven by the significant DTC share expansion and strong full-price demand throughout the holiday season, On achieves a record-breaking gross profit margin of 62.1% in Q4 2024, the highest in the company’s public history.
-
The significant strides made in 2024 across all strategic building blocks, as outlined at the 2023 Investor Day, provide On with a stronger foundation than ever before, enabling continued strong growth and profitability expansion in 2025. For the full year 2025, On expects to achieve a constant currency growth rate of at least 27%, translating to net sales of at least CHF 2.94 billion at current spot rates. On further anticipates a gross profit margin of around 60.5% for the full year, and an adjusted EBITDA margin in the range of 17.0% – 17.5%.
-
On achieves several significant milestones in 2024, including the unveiling of its innovative LightSpray™ technology, the expansion of its global retail footprint to nearly 50 own stores, and surpassing CHF 100 million in apparel net sales. As On celebrates its 15th anniversary and enters the second year of its Dream On 2026 strategy, it aims to build on its broad-based momentum. Supported by an exciting product pipeline, On intends to continue creating memorable brand experiences on the world’s biggest stages and further establish its position as the brand of choice for the customer seeking the unique combination of performance, design and sustainability.

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS, adjusted diluted EPS, net working capital and net sales on a constant currency basis are non-IFRS measures used by us to evaluate our performance. Furthermore, we believe these non-IFRS measures enhance investors’ understanding of our financial and operating performance from period to period because they enhance the comparability of results between each period, help identify trends in operating results and provide additional insight and transparency on how management evaluates the business. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS, adjusted diluted EPS, net working capital and net sales on a constant currency basis should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS. For a detailed description and a reconciliation to the nearest IFRS measure, see section titled “Non-IFRS Measures.”
Outlook
On enters 2025 with remarkable brand momentum, propelled by impactful brand moments and the successful execution of its key strategic initiatives, solidifying its vision to be the most premium global sportswear brand. Fueled by strong demand in the early months of the year, an exciting innovation pipeline in running and beyond, and a strengthened operational backbone, On is poised for continued success in 2025.
Building on the exceptional financial results in 2024 ahead of guidance, On is tracking ahead of the trajectory implied by its mid-term targets outlined at the 2023 Investor Day. In 2025, On is confident in its ability to continue on this path and achieve a constant currency net sales growth rate of at least 27% for the full year. At current spot rates, this translates to full-year reported net sales of at least CHF 2.94 billion. Due to prior year comparison dynamics and timing of key product launches, including the Cloud 6, On anticipates a higher growth rate in the first half of the year.
Supported by On’s premium brand positioning and the continued expansion of its DTC channel, and factoring in an anticipated foreign exchange headwind due to the strengthened US Dollar against the Swiss Franc, On expects to maintain its gross profit margin at around 60.5% for the full year 2025.
Driven by the strong gross profit margin and anticipated operational efficiency gains, On is steadily progressing toward its ambitious mid-term target of achieving an adjusted EBITDA margin of over 18% in 2026. In 2025, On anticipates to achieve a full year adjusted EBITDA margin in the range of 17.0% – 17.5%.
Other than with respect to IFRS net-sales and gross profit margin, On only provides guidance on a non-IFRS basis. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA to IFRS net income due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. As a result, we are not able to forecast with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide a reconciliation to net income. The above outlook is based on current market conditions and reflects the Company’s current and preliminary estimates of market and operating conditions and customer demand, which are all subject to change. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of risks and uncertainties, including those stated below and in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Non-IFRS Measures
Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS, adjusted diluted EPS, net working capital, and net sales on a constant currency basis are financial measures that are not defined under IFRS. We use these non-IFRS measures when evaluating our performance, including when making financial and operating decisions, and as a key component in the determination of variable incentive compensation for employees. We believe that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, these non-IFRS measures enhance investor understanding of our financial and operating performance from period to period, because they exclude share-based compensation which is not viewed by management as part of our ongoing operations and performance, enhance the comparability of results between each period, help identify trends in operating results and provide additional insight and transparency on how management evaluates the business. In particular, we believe adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income and net working capital are measures commonly used by investors to evaluate companies in the sportswear industry.
However, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS, adjusted diluted EPS, net working capital, and net sales on a constant currency basis should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS and may not be comparable to similarly titled non-IFRS measures used by other companies. The tables below reconcile each non-IFRS measure to its most directly comparable IFRS measure.
As noted above, we do not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA to IFRS net income due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. The amount of these deductions may be material and, therefore, could result in projected net income being materially less than projected adjusted EBITDA. These statements represent forward-looking information and may represent a financial outlook, and actual results may vary. Please see the risks and assumptions referred to in the Forward-Looking Statements section of this press release.
Net sales on a constant currency basis is a non-IFRS financial measure and should be viewed as a supplement to our results under IFRS. Net sales on a constant currency basis represents current period results that have been retranslated using exchange rates used in the prior year comparative period. We provide constant currency percent change in net sales within our results, to enhance the visibility of the underlying growth rate of net sales, excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Basic EPS and Adjusted Diluted EPS
We use adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS and adjusted diluted EPS as measures of operating performance in conjunction with related IFRS measures.
We calculate adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS and adjusted diluted EPS in a manner that fully excludes the impact of any costs related to share-based compensation and includes the tax effect on the tax deductible portion of the non-IFRS adjustments, in order to increase comparability of these metrics from period to period, which we believe makes it useful for management, our audit committee and investors to assess our financial performance over time.
Adjusted basic EPS is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Adjusted diluted EPS is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period on a fully diluted basis.
The tables below provide a reconciliation between net income and adjusted net income, adjusted basic EPS and adjusted diluted EPS for the periods presented:

(1) Management excludes share-based compensation expenses as we do not consider these expenses reflective of our ongoing operations and performance.
|
|
(2) The tax effect has been calculated by applying the local tax rate on the tax deductible portion of the respective adjustments.
|
|
(3) Weighted numbers of outstanding shares (diluted and undiluted) are presented herein in order to calculate adjusted EPS as adjusted net income for such periods.
|
|
(4) For the three-month period ended December 31, 2023, 3,159,251 shares and 11,325,561 shares were excluded from the diluted EPS calculation for Class A ordinary shares and Class B voting rights shares, respectively, as the impact of the shares are considered anti dilutive.

Net Sales on a Constant Currency Basis
Net sales on a constant currency basis is a non-IFRS measure which represents current period results that have been retranslated using exchange rates used in the prior year comparative period. We provide constant currency percent change in net sales in our results to enhance the visibility of the underlying growth rate of net sales, excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Below, we show reported net sales split out by sales channel, geography, and product, and include the reported percent change and the constant currency percent change.
Net sales by sales channel

Net Working Capital
Net working capital is a financial measure that is not defined under IFRS. We use, and believe that certain investors and analysts, use this information to assess liquidity and management use of net working capital resources. We define net working capital as trade receivables, plus inventories, minus trade payables. This measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any standardized measure under IFRS.
Other companies in our industry may calculate this measure differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
