Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS | ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Successor Waldencast plc (“Waldencast”), formerly known as Waldencast Acquisition Corp., is a Jersey company. Waldencast was originally incorporated on December 8, 2020 as a Cayman Islands exempted company and a blank check company solely for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. On March 18, 2021, Waldencast consummated an initial public offering of 34,500,000 units (the “IPO”), with each unit consisting of one Class A ordinary share and one-third of one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”) to acquire one Class A ordinary share (together, a “Unit”), at $10.00 per Unit. In connection with the Business Combination (as defined below), on July 26, 2022, with the approval of Waldencast’s shareholders, and in accordance with the Cayman Companies Act (the “Cayman Act”), the Companies (Jersey) Law 1991, as amended (the “Jersey Companies Law”) and Waldencast’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, Waldencast effected a deregistration under the Cayman Act and a domestication under Part 18C of the Jersey Companies Law (by means of filing a memorandum and articles of association with the Registrar of Companies in Jersey), pursuant to which Waldencast’s jurisdiction of incorporation was changed from the Cayman Islands to Jersey (the “Domestication”). Upon the effective time of the Domestication, Waldencast Acquisition Corp. was renamed Waldencast plc. On July 27, 2022 (the “Closing Date”), Waldencast acquired Obagi Global Holdings Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company, and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Obagi”) and Milk Makeup LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and its subsidiaries (collectively “Milk”) (the “Business Combination”), as described below in “ Note 3 . Business Combinations.” Following the Business Combination, the Company (as defined below) conducts its business through the following reportable segments: (i) Obagi Skincare and (ii) Milk Makeup. Obagi is a global skincare company that develops, markets, and sells proprietary-topical aesthetic and therapeutic prescription-strength skincare systems and related products primarily in the physician-dispensed market. Obagi provides cosmetic, over-the-counter (“OTC”) and prescription products. Milk Makeup develops and sells cosmetic, skin care and other beauty products. The brand creates vegan, cruelty-free, clean formulas from its Milk headquarters in downtown New York City. Milk’s products are offered through its U.S. website, www.milkmakeup.com, and its retail partners including Sephora in North America, Europe, the Middle East, Australia, Cult Beauty, and ASOS online. As a result of the Business Combination, Waldencast is organized as an “Up-C” structure, whereby the equity interests of Obagi and Milk are held by Waldencast Partners LP (“Waldencast Partners LP”), a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership and indirect subsidiary of Waldencast, which is an entity that is classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes . Predecessor Obagi Global Holdings Limited is a holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands that conducts all operations through its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Obagi is a global skincare company that develops, markets, and sells proprietary-topical aesthetic and therapeutic prescription-strength skincare systems and related products primarily in the physician-dispensed market. Obagi provides cosmetic, OTC and prescription products. On July 15, 2021, ZhongHua Finance Acquisition Fund I, L.P. (“ZhongHua”), Obagi’s sole shareholder, transferred its 4,000,000 ordinary shares to its affiliate, Cedarwalk Skincare Ltd. (“Cedarwalk”), which became the new sole shareholder of Obagi. This transfer between affiliates did not result in any change of control. Immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination, Obagi carved out and distributed all of the outstanding shares of its subsidiary, Obagi Hong Kong Limited (“Obagi Hong Kong” or “Obagi HK”) to its shareholder, Cedarwalk (the “Obagi China Distribution”). All sales of Obagi products in the People’s Republic of China, inclusive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the Macau Special Administrative Region, and Taiwan (the “China Region”) prior to the Business Combination had been conducted through Obagi Hong Kong and its subsidiaries (the “Obagi China Business”), which were not acquired by Waldencast in the Business Combination. Basis of Presentation Waldencast has prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In accounting for the Business Combination, Waldencast was deemed to be the legal and the accounting acquirer (referred to as the “Successor”), however, Obagi was deemed to be the predecessor entity for financial reporting purposes (referred to as the “Predecessor”). Under the acquisition method of accounting, Waldencast’s assets and liabilities retained their carrying values and the assets and liabilities associated with Obagi and Milk were recorded at their fair values measured as of the acquisition date, which created a new basis of accounting. This change in accounting basis is represented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements by a black line, which appears between the columns entitled Successor and Predecessor in the financial statements and in the relevant accompanying notes. The black line signifies that the consolidated financial statements presented for the Company after the Closing Date (the “Successor Period”) are presented on a measurement basis different from those for the period prior to the Closing Date (the “Predecessor Periods”). As a result of the application of the acquisition method of accounting as of the Closing Date, the financial statements for the Predecessor Periods (which only includes Obagi, including the Obagi China Business, through July 27, 2022) and for the Successor Period (which includes Waldencast and its subsidiaries from July 28, 2022 to December 31, 2022) and the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) are presented on a different basis of accounting and are, therefore, not comparable. Unless the context requires otherwise, the “Company” refers to Obagi for periods prior to the Business Combination and to Waldencast together with its consolidated subsidiaries, as the Successor for periods after the Business Combination. |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTI

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation —The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Waldencast and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company consolidates entities in which the Company has a majority voting interest. The Company eliminates intercompany transactions and accounts in consolidation. The Company separately presents within equity on the consolidated balance sheets the ownership interests attributable to parties with noncontrolling interests in the Company's consolidated subsidiaries, and separately presents net income attributable to such parties on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Emerging Growth Company —Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised, and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s consolidated financial statements with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used. Use of Estimates —The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in the financial statements include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, stock-based compensation, goodwill valuation, inventory valuation, and valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and assumptions that it believes are reasonable at the time. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making assumptions and estimates, changes in circumstances could result in actual results differing from those estimates, and such differences could be material to the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Concentrations of Credit Risk —Financial instruments that subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash balances in accounts held by major banks and financial institutions located primarily in the U.S. and considers such risk to be minimal. Such bank deposits from time to time may be exposed to credit risk in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit. The Company’s accounts receivable primarily represent amounts due from distributors, and third-party logistics companies, directly and indirectly from major retailers, and from group purchasing organizations located both inside and outside the U.S. The Company mitigates its credit risks by performing ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial conditions, requiring customer advance payments in certain circumstances. The Company generally does not require collateral. As of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period), one U.S. customer accounted for 27% of accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), two U.S. customers accounted for 50% and 19% of accounts receivable, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period), one vendor exceeded 10% of inventory purchases. During the period from July 28, 2022 to December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), one vendor exceeded 10% of inventory purchases. During the period from January 1, 2022 to July 27, 2022 (Predecessor Period), three vendors exceeded 10% of inventory purchases. During the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period), the Company purchased approximately 17% of inventory from one vendor. During the period from July 28, 2022 to December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), the Company purchased approximately 27% of inventory from one vendor. During the period from January 1, 2022 to July 27, 2022 (Predecessor Period), the Company purchased approximately 23%, 12%, and 12% of inventory, respectively, from three vendors. As of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period), one vendor accounted for 18% of accounts payable. As of December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), two vendors accounted for 15% and 12%, respectively, of accounts payable. Cash and Cash Equivalents —The Company considers highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. Restricted Cash —The Company’s restricted cash represents funds that were not accessible for general purpose cash needs due to contractual limitations. As of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period), the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash balance of $22.6 million shown on the consolidated statements of cash flows consisted of $21.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash balance of $10.2 million shown on the consolidated statements of cash flows consisted of $8.7 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The restricted cash balance represented cash in a savings account held by a major bank located in the U.S. and provides collateral for corporate credit cards obtained by the Predecessor for its employees. The Company is required to hold the restricted cash in the bank’s savings account. Following the acquisition of Milk, the Company had an additional $0.8 million in restricted cash held with a financial institution as collateral for a lease deposit. The deposit is refundable at the end of the lease in November 2030, provided that Milk does not default on its lease payments. Inventories —The Company’s products are produced by third-party contract manufacturers (“CMOs). Inventories consist of finished goods, work-in-process products and promotional products, valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the standard cost method, which approximates actual costs determined on a first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) basis. In order to track inventory quantities, the Company uses a perpetual inventory system. Promotional products are charged to cost of goods sold at the time the product is shipped to the Company’s customer. The Company has in-transit inventory at any given period. Assessment of in-transit inventory is required to determine inventory balances accurately at period-end. Inventory is recognized when the Company holds title and bears substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership. In many transactions, the transfer of title and the risks and rewards of ownership are dictated by contractually specified shipping terms, which may take the form of free-on-board (“FOB”) shipping point or FOB destination point. If historical costs exceed the net realizable value at the balance sheet date, the Company adjusts the inventory to net realizable value (i.e., if impairment is identified, the Company records write-downs of inventories to cost of goods sold in the period in which it occurs). The Company evaluates the carrying value of inventories on a regular basis and determines the need to write down carrying values by considering historical and anticipated future sales compared with quantities on hand, the price the Company expects to obtain for products in their respective markets compared with historical cost, and the remaining shelf life of goods on hand. Obsolete, Scrap and Expired Inventory The inventory provision is set up for inventory that is expected to become obsolete or have a decreased value due to market trends or product upgrades. It accounts for losses that may occur when the inventory cannot be sold at its full cost. The Company regularly monitors any inventory that is not expected to be sold prior to the expiration date and historically slow-moving inventory based on the remaining shelf life and incorporates these considerations into its reserve analysis. Additionally, each period, Management will evaluate whether any additional write downs are required in addition to the calculated reserve amount (generally, by stock keeping unit (“SKU”) and/or lot). Specific reserves may relate to known matters, such as quality concerns or a discontinued product. Sales Returns Historically, the Company has not experienced a material amount of product returns. Certain arrangements may give the Company’s customers the right to return products. In addition, when customer arrangements do not give the Company’s customer the explicit right to return products, the Company may accept returns on a discretionary basis. The Company records a return asset for products returned by customers measured at the former carrying amount of the inventory, less any expected costs to recover the goods and potential decreases in value. If the returned inventory is not considered re-sellable, it will be written off to cost of goods sold. When customers have the right to receive a refund for defective or damaged products (as opposed to a replacement product), the right is accounted for as a right of return under ASC 606. When customers have the right to receive a replacement product for defective or damaged products, the right is accounted for as a warranty under ASC 460-10, Guarantees and the Company accrues for replacement costs. Derivatives —The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), which requires additional disclosures about the Company’s objectives and strategies for using derivative instruments, how the derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for, and how the derivative instruments and related hedging items affect the consolidated financial statements. The Company uses interest rate collars to mitigate interest risk associated with its variable rate credit agreements. See “ Note 9 . Financial Instruments” for further discussion of the interest rate collar. Terms of debt instruments are reviewed to determine whether they contain embedded derivative instruments that are required to be accounted for separately from the host contract and recorded on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value under ASC 815. An evaluation of specifically identified conditions is made to determine whether the fair value of warrants issued is required to be classified as equity or as a derivative liability. The fair value of derivative liabilities, if any, is required to be revalued at each reporting date, with corresponding changes in fair value recorded in current period operating results. Warrant Liabilities The Company accounts for Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants (each as defined below) as liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815. Specifically, the Public and Private Placement Warrants meet the definition of a derivative but do not qualify for an exception from derivative accounting since the warrants are not indexed to the Company’s stock and, therefore, are precluded from equity classification. Since the Public and Private Placement Warrants meet the definition of a derivative under ASC 815, the Company measures the warrants at fair value at inception and at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in change in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in the period of change. See “ Note 9 . Financial Instruments” for further discussion of the warrants, including the FPA Warrants (as defined below). Fair Value Measurement —The Company uses valuation approaches that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels: • Level 1 inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date. • Level 2 inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. • Level 3 inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at measurement date. The fair values of the interest rate collar and warrant liabilities were estimated using inputs based on management’s judgment and conditions that existed at each reporting date. See “ Note 10 . Fair Value Measurements ” for further details. The fair values of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and all other current liabilities approximate their carrying values because of the short maturities of these instruments. Additionally, the carrying amount of debt approximates fair value due to the adjusting interest rates of the Company’s term loan, which approximate current market rates. Capitalized Software and Website Development Costs — The Company capitalizes costs related to (i) internal-use software (ii) cloud computing arrangement (“CCA”) implementation costs, and (iii) other software-related costs (e.g., website development costs). For internal-use software, both internal and external costs incurred during the preliminary project stage are expensed as incurred, and qualifying costs incurred during the application development state are capitalized. Capitalization ceases no later than the point at which a software project is substantially completed and ready for its intended use. For CCAs, or hosting arrangements, the Company evaluates if the CCA includes a software license that will be accounted for in addition to a hosting service. The cost of the arrangement (i.e., license or service cost) of a CCA that includes a software license will be capitalized as an acquisition of an asset (similar to internal-use software) and amortized over its useful economic life, whereas the costs of a service contract are expensed as incurred. Costs related to website development are expensed as incurred during the planning stage, content development stage, and operating stage. The Company generally capitalizes costs incurred for activities during the website application and infrastructure development stage, and graphics development stage. Costs incurred for website hosting services from a third-party vendor are expensed over the period the services are received. Internal-use software costs and website development costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which is generally three years or less. Management evaluates the useful lives of these assets and tests for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets. Prepaid Expenses — At initial recognition, the Company measures prepaid assets based on cost (i.e., amount paid). In the accounting period or periods in which a good or service is used or received, the asset will be reduced by a proportionate amount and an associated asset (e.g., inventory) or expense (e.g., marketing) will be recorded. Prepaid Inventory Prepayments are required to begin production of inventory at certain of the Company’s CMOs and inventory suppliers. Vendors are tracked to determine prepayments that have been made and when the associated inventory is expected to be delivered to the Company (i.e., when the Company takes ownership of the inventory). Prepaid inventory is triggered by invoices received from CMOs (i.e., the vendor). When the Company submits purchase orders, the CMOs may request a prepayment amount (deposit) based on agreed-upon percentage in the vendor contracts to start the production process. Prepaid Marketing and Advertising The Company generally expenses the costs of advertising and marketing as costs are incurred, except for costs associated with producing advertising. While production costs (i.e., costs to develop promotions for a specific campaign associated with an identified new brand or new product) are incurred during the process of production, the Company has elected to expense certain costs when the associated advertising takes place. In the event that the advertising is not expected to occur (e.g., decision has been made to not launch a promotion) or a 12-month period elapses without the associated advertising occurring, the associated production costs will be expensed. Property and Equipment, Net — Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. In the case of a business combination, acquired property and equipment are recognized at their fair value as of the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of respective assets. No depreciation is charged to construction in progress. The estimated useful lives of the Company’s assets are as follows: ESTIMATED USEFUL LIVES Computer hardware and software 3 years Furniture and fixtures 3 - 5 years Machinery and equipment 3 - 5 years Gondolas 3 years Leasehold improvements Lesser of useful life or term of lease Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When an asset is sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and associated accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Intangible Assets, Net —Intangible assets consist primarily of trademarks and trade names, a supply agreement, customer relationships, formulations, and developed technology. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are recognized at their fair value as of the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any, and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets —Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, for each asset group held for use with indicators of impairment, the Company compares the expected future cash flows generated by the asset group, which represents the lowest level at which cash flows are identifiable, with its associated net carrying value. If the net carrying value of the asset group exceeds expected undiscounted cash flows, the excess of the net book value over estimated fair value is charged to impairment loss. Business Combinations — When the Company acquires a business, the total purchase consideration provided is allocated to the identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired business at their estimated respective fair values. Any excess consideration of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recognized as goodwill. Significant management judgments and assumptions are required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows, useful lives and discount rates. Measurement period adjustments are reflected at the time identified, up through the conclusion of the measurement period, which is the time at which all information for determination of the values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is received, which may not exceed one year from the acquisition date. The Company may record adjustments to the fair value of these tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with a corresponding offset to goodwill. If outside of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Goodwill —Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price and the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination. The Company reviews goodwill for impairment annually on October 1 st and at an interim date if events or changes in circumstances indicate the occurrence of a triggering event. The Company reviews goodwill for impairment by initially considering qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill, as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative analysis. If it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, a quantitative analysis is performed to identify goodwill impairment. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Deferred Issuance Costs —The Company capitalizes costs related to the issuance of debt instruments, as applicable. Such costs are initially recorded as a direct deduction from the applicable debt instrument and amortized over the contractual term of the related debt instrument in interest expense, net using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method, in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Accounts Receivable, Net —Trade accounts receivable are stated at net realizable value. Receivables are unsecured and represent amounts billed to and currently due from customers that have yet to be collected. Payment terms are generally short-term in nature and are less than one year. In certain circumstances, the Company offers extended payment terms to customers. When the period between the transfer of control of the products and payment is greater than one year, the Company adjusts the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts, which represents allowances for customer trade accounts receivable that are both probable and estimated to be partially or entirely uncollectible. These allowances are used to reduce gross trade receivables to their net realizable value. The Company records these allowances based on estimates related to the following factors: (i) customer-specific allowances, based upon past collection history, historical trends, and identification of specific customer risk and (ii) formula-based general allowances using an aging schedule. Determining such allowances involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Payments of accounts receivable are allocated to the specific invoices identified on the customer’s remittance advice or to the customer’s account, if unspecified, until an invoice can be determined by the customer. Balances that are still outstanding after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to trade accounts receivable. Revenue Recognition —The Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to for those goods or services. In that determination, under ASC 606 the Company follows a five-step model that includes: (1) determination of whether a contract or an agreement between two or more parties that creates legally enforceable rights and obligations exists; (2) identification of the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determination of the transaction price; (4) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognition of revenue when (or as) performance obligations are satisfied. Net revenue excludes taxes collected by us on behalf of governmental authorities. Product Sales The Company’s revenue is primarily generated from product sales to distributors, retailers, physicians and directly to consumers (“DTC”) via its e-commerce platforms. Distributors may resell products to retailers, physicians, or end consumers. To determine when to recognize revenue under ASC 606 in cases where products are sold to distributors, the Company analyzes various factors including its ability to direct products physically held by the distributors, when title and risk of loss transfers, and who ultimately manages the relationship with the end consumer. The Company does not recognize revenue until control of the products is transferred to the distributor. At contract inception, and when facts and circumstances change, the Company assesses whether it is probable that the Company will collect substantially all of the consideration it will be entitled to from a customer. If the Company determines that it is not probable that the Company will collect substantially all of the consideration from the customer, the Company recognizes revenue only when one or more of the following events occur: (i) the Company has no remaining obligations to transfer goods or services to the customer, and all, or substantially all, of the consideration promised by the customer has been received by the Company and is nonrefundable, (ii) the contract has been terminated, and the consideration received from the customer is nonrefundable, or (iii) the Company has transferred control of the goods or services to which the consideration that has been received relates, the Company has stopped transferring goods or services to the customer (if applicable) and has no obligation under the contract to transfer additional goods or services, and the consideration received from the customer is nonrefundable. The Company has determined that each of its products is distinct and represents a separate performance obligation. The transaction price is equal to the consideration the Company is entitled to – which could be either a distributor, retailer, physician, or e-commerce end consumer. When measuring revenue and determining the consideration the Company is entitled to as part of a contract with a customer, the Company takes into account the related elements of variable consideration. Product sales revenue is recognized net of provisions for estimated volume rebates and discounts, markdowns, margin adjustments, early-payment discounts and returns. The Company estimates variable consideration using the expected value method and adjusts the transaction price when control of the related product is transferred to the customer. The Company’s distributors charge fees for certain services rendered by the distributors, including packing and shipping, marketing and advertising the Company’s products, monitoring product reviews, regulatory services, providing customer service, and generating data and analytical reports on product sales. Distributor fees for services are recognized as a reduction to revenue because the services provided are typically not distinct from the distributors’ purchase of products. Typically, customers are required to pay either in advance or between 30 and 90 days from delivery or invoicing. However, in certain circumstances, the Company offers extended payment terms to customers. When the period between the transfer of control of the products and payment is greater than one year, the Company adjusts the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component. When contracts contain a significant financing component in which the Company is effectively financing the customer, a portion of the transaction price is recognized as other income. The Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Standalone selling price is the price at which the Company would sell a promised product separately to a customer. The Company typically has an observable standalone selling price for each of its products. The Company has different contracted shipping terms with different customers that dictate the timing of payment, passage of legal title, transfer of physical possession, and assumption of the risks and rewards occur. For distributors, other than the Physician Channel Provider, and retailers, depending on the contract, the Company considers transfer of control to have occurred either once the delivery of the product has occurred or once the product has been picked up from the Company’s designated warehouse/distribution center by the customer’s shipping agent, unless the Company is responsible for shipping the goods, in which case transfer of control passes upon delivery to the customer. For DTC sales and sales to physicians through the Physician Channel Provider, control transfers upon shipment to the end consumer or physician. Promotional Products In situations where promotional products, such as samples and testers, are provided by the Company to its customers at the same time as a related saleable product, the cost of these promotional products are recognized as cost of sales at the same time as the revenue for the related product is recognized. Royalties The Company generates royalty revenue from products sold under the Obagi brand name in Japan and Hong Kong through license agreements with local operators. Under these agreements, the Company provides the local operators with a license of intellectual property and receives a royalty based upon a percentage of net sales of Obagi-branded products sold in Japan and Hong Kong. Because the license is the predominant item to which the sales-based royalty relates, the Company recognizes revenue for the sales-based royalty when the local operators make sales of the products. Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer The Company recognizes the incremental costs of obtaining a customer contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the assets that the Company otherwise would have recognized is one year or less. The incremental costs to obtain contracts primarily relate to sales commission and sales-based bonuses. Total capitalizable costs to obtain a contract were immaterial during the periods presented. Other The Company’s contracts do not typically give rise to material contract assets or contract liabilities because (i) payment is typically closely aligned with the timing of the Company’s performance or (ii) the Company performs prior to customer payment, and the Company has an unconditional right to payment that represents an account receivable. Similarly, the Company does not recognize material revenue in reporting periods from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods. The Company applies the exemption in ASC 606-10-50-14(a) related to disclosure of the amount of transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations for royalty contracts.

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS | BUSINESS COMBINATIONS On July 27, 2022, Waldencast consummated its initial business combination with (i) Obagi, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated November 15, 2021, by and among Waldencast, Obagi Merger Sub, Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Waldencast (“Merger Sub”), and Obagi (the “Obagi Merger Agreement”), and (ii), Milk, pursuant to an Equity Purchase Agreement dated November 15, 2021, by and among Waldencast, Obagi Holdco 1 Limited, a limited company incorporated under the laws of Jersey (“Holdco Purchaser”) and a subsidiary of Waldencast, Waldencast Partners LP together with Holdco Purchaser, (the “Purchasers”), certain members of Milk (the “Milk Members”), and Shareholder Representative Services LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, solely in its capacity as representative of the Milk Members (the “Equityholder Representative”) (the “Milk Equity Purchase Agreement” and together with the Obagi Merger Agreement, the “Transaction Agreements”). Pursuant to the Obagi Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Obagi Merger (the “Obagi Merger Effective Time”) Merger Sub merged with and into Obagi (the “Obagi Merger”) and the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased, with Obagi surviving as an indirect subsidiary of the Company. At the Obagi Merger Effective Time, all outstanding ordinary shares of Obagi, $0.50 par value (“Obagi common shares”) were canceled and exchanged for (i) 28,237,506 Class A ordinary shares of Waldencast and (ii) cash in the amount of $345.4 million. Pursuant to the Milk Equity Purchase Agreement, at the effective time of the Milk Transaction (the “Milk Purchase Effective Time”) the Purchasers acquired from the Milk Members all of their equity in Milk in exchange for (i) 21,104,225 limited partnership units in Waldencast Partners LP (“Waldencast LP Units”) (ii) 21,104,225 Class B ordinary shares, which are non-economic voting shares of Waldencast and (iii) cash in the amount of $121.6 million (the “Milk Transaction”) . Each Waldencast LP Unit and Class B ordinary share held by a Milk Member is redeemable at the option of the holder, and, if such option is exercised, exchangeable at the option of Waldencast into one Waldencast Class A ordinary share or cash, in accordance with the terms of the Amended and Restated Waldencast Partners LP Agreement . Upon consummation of the Business Combination Waldencast became organized in an “Up-C” structure, whereby the equity interests of Obagi and Milk are held by Waldencast Partners LP, which is an indirect subsidiary of Waldencast plc. In the Business Combination, Waldencast was deemed to be the accounting acquirer and continues as the SEC registrant. Obagi and Milk were deemed to be the accounting acquirees, however Obagi is considered the predecessor entity for purposes of financial reporting. Waldencast was determined to be the accounting acquirer based on evaluation of the following factors: – The owners of Waldencast have the largest voting interest in the combined company; – The original owner of Waldencast, Waldencast Long-Term Capital LLC (the “Sponsor”), and its affiliates nominated the majority of the initial members who will serve on the board of directors of Waldencast (the former owner of Obagi nominated one director, and Milk nominated no directors); and – Waldencast’s existing management holds executive management roles for the post-combination company, whilst Obagi and Milk management team members report into the current Waldencast executive team. Immediately prior to the Obagi Merger Effective Time, Obagi carved out and distributed the Obagi China Business to Cedarwalk pursuant to the Obagi China Distribution. Following the Obagi China Distribution, the Obagi China Business continues to be held by Cedarwalk, which also owned 24.5% of the fully diluted Waldencast plc Class A ordinary shares as of the Obagi Merger Effective Time. Prior to the Obagi China Distribution, the pre-tax losses for the Obagi China Business were $8.0 million and $3.7 million for the period from January 1 to July 27, 2022 (Predecessor Period) and the year ended December 31, 2021 (Predecessor Period). See “ Note 16 . Related Party Transactions” for more information on ongoing transactions with the Obagi China Business following the close of the Obagi Merger.

Goodwill recognized is not expected to be deductible for local tax purposes. During the period from July 28, 2022 to December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $68.7 million within the Obagi Skincare reportable segment. See “ Note 5 . Goodwill” for additional details. See “ Note 18 . Segment Reporting” for amounts related to revenue and earnings associated with Obagi Skincare and Milk Makeup subsequent to the acquisition date. Related party liability The Company recognized a liability with respect to a related party supply contract executed on the Closing Date between Obagi and Obagi Hong Kong. The fair value of the related party liability was determined using the present value of after-tax cash flows related to unfavorable discounts provided to the Obagi China Business included in the supply agreement. As of the Obagi Merger Effective Time, the Company recognized a related party liability of $22.1 million. During the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) and the period from July 28, 2022 to December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), respectively, the Company amortized $4.1 and $12.2 million of the related party liability into the related party revenue recognized on the sale of products to the Obagi China Business. The Company had a remaining related party liability of $5.9 and $9.9 million, included in Other current liabilities, as of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) and December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), respectively.

The estimate of the fair values of the acquired amortizable intangible assets were determined using a multi-period excess earnings income approach by discounting the incremental after-tax cash flows over multiple periods. Significant estimates used in the determination include estimating future cash flows over multiple periods, terminal value, and discounting such cash flows at a rate of return that reflects the relative risk of the cash flows. Transaction Costs In connection with the Business Combination, Waldencast incurred transactions costs of $9.4 million which were incurred during the period from July 28, 2022 to December 31, 2022 (Successor Period). Transaction costs consisted of advisory, legal, accounting and management fees, which are included in SG&A expenses on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

REVENUE | REVENUE The Company disaggregates its revenue from customers by sales channel, as well as by revenue source and geographic region, based on the location of the end customer, as it believes it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of its revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. Revenue by Sales Channel The Company’s revenue is primarily generated from product sales. Direct Sales revenue listed in the table below includes (i) sales to physicians through the Physician Channel Provider, (ii) DTC sales via the Company’s e-commerce platforms, and (iii) sales directly to retailers. Distributors revenue includes products sold through distributors other than the Physician Channel Provider.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract] | |
GOODWILL | GOODWILL The Company allocated goodwill acquired in the Obagi Merger to its Obagi Skincare reportable segment and goodwill acquired in the Milk Transaction to its Milk Makeup segment. The fair value of each reporting unit was determined as of the Closing Date as part of the Business Combination (see “ Note 3 . Business Combinations” ). The following table presents changes in goodwill by reportable segment: (In thousands) Obagi Skincare Milk Makeup Total Goodwill Balance as of December 31, 2021 (Predecessor) $ 44,489 $ — $ 44,489 Elimination of Predecessor goodwill (44,489) — (44,489) Obagi and Milk Business Combinations 268,263 135,072 403,335 Impairment loss (68,715) — (68,715) Balance as of December 31, 2022 (Successor) $ 199,548 $ 135,072 $ 334,620 Balance as of December 31, 2023 (Successor) $ 199,548 $ 135,072 $ 334,620 The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual basis on October 1 st and at an interim date if indicators of a potential impairment exist. The goodwill impairment test is conducted at the reporting unit level. The fair value of the Company’s reporting units is determined using a combination of the discounted cash flow method under the income approach and the guideline public company method under the market approach. Fair value estimates result from a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties and rely heavily on estimates and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management as of the measurement date. Under the discounted cash flow method, fair value is determined by discounting the estimated future cash flows of each reporting unit, which includes the Company’s most recent projected long-term financial forecasts for revenue, earnings, capital expenditures and working capital. The discount rate used is intended to reflect the risks inherent in the future cash flows of the respective reporting unit. Under the guideline public company method, fair value is estimated using market multiples of various financial metrics observed for the reporting unit’s comparable public companies. The annual impairment test performed for fiscal 2021 (Predecessor Period) and fiscal 2022 (Successor Period) did not indicate an impairment of goodwill at the time they were performed. However, subsequent to the Business Combination (see “ Note 3 . Business Combinations”), the Company concluded that qualitative factors and relevant events and circumstances indicated it was more likely than not that the fair value of the Obagi Skincare reporting segment was less than its carrying amount. Therefore, the Company performed a quantitative goodwill impairment test for the associated reporting unit. As a result, during the period ended December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $68.7 million within the Obagi Skincare reportable segment. |

The terms of the agreement stipulate equal monthly payments of principal and interest payments of $0.2 million over a ten-month period, ending in May 2024. Interest accrues on this loan at an annual rate of 8.2%. Successor 2022 Credit Agreement In June 2022, the Borrower, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, together with Waldencast Partners LP and certain of its subsidiaries as guarantors, entered into the 2022 Credit Agreement with the Lenders and JPMorgan, as administrative agent for the Lenders. The 2022 Credit Agreement provides the Company with access to a term loan of $175.0 million (the “2022 Term Loan”) and a revolving credit capacity with a current borrowing capacity of up to $45.0 million (the “2022 Revolving Credit Facility”), of which up to $7.5 million may be available, at Borrower’s option, to be drawn in form of letters of credit (“2022 Letter of Credit”). The 2022 Credit Agreement is secured by the assets of the Company. The 2022 Credit Agreement restricts the Company’s ability to make certain distributions or dividends, subject to a number of enumerated exceptions. The 2022 Credit Agreement matures on July 27, 2026, four years following the funding date. The Company may elect to borrow either alternate base rate borrowings or term benchmark borrowings. Each draw that is an alternate base rate borrowing bears interest at an Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement) plus the applicable rate of 2.5% per annum. Each draw that is a term benchmark borrowing bears interest at the Term SOFR Rate (as defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement), which resets periodically, plus 0.1% and the applicable rate of 3.5% per annum. As of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period), borrowings under the 2022 Credit Agreement consisted entirely of term benchmark borrowings at a borrowing rate of 7.9%.

In June 2023, the Borrower entered into a subsequent waiver and consent agreement with JPMorgan and the required Lenders, pursuant to which they agreed to, among other things, (a) continue to waive certain defaults or events of default that had or would have resulted from the failure to deliver certain financial information and (b) suspend the testing of certain financial covenants in the 2022 Credit Agreement. In August 2023, the Borrower entered into a subsequent waiver and consent agreement with JPMorgan and the required Lenders, pursuant to which they agreed to, among other things, (i) waive any default or event of default that has or would result from the failure to deliver certain financial information and related reports with respect to the fiscal year of the Borrower ended December 31, 2022 (Successor Period) and the fiscal quarters of the Borrower ended March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively and (ii) suspend the testing of certain financial covenants set forth in the 2022 Credit Agreement. Such waiver would remain in effect until September 15, 2023.

Leases [Abstract] | |
LEASES | LEASES The Company has operating leases for real estate properties for office and warehouse space with initial terms of approximately 8 and 11 years, respectively. Some of the Company’s lease contracts include options to extend the leases for up to 5 years. Our lease agreements generally do not contain any residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants. The Company determines if a contract contains a lease at inception of the arrangement based on whether the Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of an identified asset and whether the Company has the right to direct the use of an identified asset in exchange for consideration, which relates to an asset that the Company does not own. Right of use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. The Company includes options that are reasonably certain to be exercised as part of the lease term. The Company may negotiate termination clauses in anticipation of any changes in market conditions but generally, these termination options are not exercised and not considered in the determination of the lease term. Lease liabilities are recognized at the present value of the future lease payments at the lease commencement date. ROU assets are recognized on the balance sheet based on the lease liability adjusted for any initial direct costs, lease incentives received, and prepaid rent. The interest rate used to determine the present value of the future lease payments is the Company’s incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”), because the interest rate implicit in most of the Company’s leases is not readily determinable. The IBR is a hypothetical rate based on the Company’s understanding of what its credit rating would be, and resulting interest the Company would pay, to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment over the lease term on a collateralized basis. Lease payments may be fixed or variable, however, only fixed payments or in-substance fixed payments are included in the Company’s lease liability calculation. Variable lease payments may include costs such as common area maintenance, utilities, or other costs. Variable lease payments are recognized in operating expenses in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. The Company has elected not to separate non-lease components from lease components and accounts for them as a single lease component. The Company has also elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. The Company historically accounted for leases in accordance with ASC 840, Leases , under which operating leases were not recorded on the balance sheet. Adoption of ASC 842 was not required in interim periods preceding December 31, 2022 (Successor Period). Upon consummation of the Business Combination, Obagi and Milk adopted ASC 842 as a matter of policy alignment. The period from January 1 to July 27, 2022 (Predecessor Period) does not reflect the impact of ASC 842 adoption, as the Company did not adopt the standard as of an interim 2022 period. The Company’s lease expenses of $3.5 million were composed of operating lease costs. The Company does not have any finance leases, short-term lease costs or variable lease costs. Supplemental cash flow information related to the Company’s operating leases was as follows: Year ended December 31, 2023 (in thousands) (Successor) Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities: $ 3,309 Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for new operating lease liabilities: $ 446 Year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor) Weighted-average remaining lease term 6.92 Weighted-average discount rate 5.9% Reconciliation of the undiscounted future minimal lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases to the total operating lease liability recognized on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) was as follows: (in thousands) Amount 2024 $ 3,258 2025 3,504 2026 2,899 2027 2,452 2028 2,504 Thereafter 6,721 Total future minimum lease payments $ 21,338 Less: Imputed Interest 3,407 Total reported lease liability $ 17,931 Texas Leases In December 2021 and July 2022, Obagi entered into a lease for a warehouse and office space, respectively, in Texas as part of their plans to relocate headquarters from California. The warehouse space was never made operational and the Company permanently decided not to use the warehouse with no intention to occupy or utilize the space in the future, and actively began marketing the space for sublease. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $0.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) which was the excess of the carrying value of the associated lease right-of-use asset over its fair value. The lease will expire in February 2031 and the Company plans to sublease the facilities. In September 2023, Obagi vacated the Texas office space and relocated its headquarters back to California, permanently deciding to not use the office with no intention to occupy or utilize the space in the future, and actively began marketing the space for sublease. We have entered into a sublease for the office space that will run through December 2025 with annual rent of $0.4 million. The sublease does not contain a provision for early termination or extension at the end of the lease. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $2.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) which was the excess of the carrying value of the associated office lease right-of-use asset over its fair value. The Company estimated the fair values using discounted cash flows from the estimated net sublease rental income as of the date the decision to sublease was made. The impairment charges are included in general, administrative, and other expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Disclosures Related to Periods Prior to the Adoption of ASC 842 Prior to the Obagi China Distribution, the Company leased office space under three non-cancelable operating leases expiring between September 2023 and February 2032. Rent expense related to the Company’s operating leases was $0.9 million and $1.2 million for the period from January 1, 2022 to July 27, 2022 (Predecessor Period) and the year ended December 31, 2021 (Predecessor Period), respectively. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Interest Rate Collar To mitigate interest rate risk in connection with the variable rate loans under the 2022 Credit Agreement, the Company entered into an interest rate collar with Wells Fargo for a notional value of $160.0 million and a fixed cash payment of $0.8 million. Under the terms of the interest rate collar, the Company is required to pay Wells Fargo if the monthly SOFR-based interest falls below the defined interest rate floor of 2.55%; conversely, the Company is entitled to receive payment from Wells Fargo if the monthly SOFR-based interest rate rises above the defined interest rate cap of 5.25%. Settlement in cash occurs monthly, if contractually required, until termination of the agreement in October 2024, and the variable interest rate is reset on the last day of each month. This derivative instrument has not been designated for hedge accounting, therefore the change in fair value is recognized in current period earnings. The fair value of these contracts, included in other non-current assets was $0.1 million and $0.2 million as of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) and December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), respectively. The non-cash loss from change in fair value was $0.1 million and $0.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) and for the period from July 28 to December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), respectively, recognized in other expenses, net. Receipts of $0.1 million were exchanged on the interest rate collar contract during the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period). No payments or receipts were exchanged on the interest rate collar contract during the period from July 28 to December 31, 2022 (Successor Period) aside from the initial fixed cash payment of $0.8 million. Warrant Liabilities Pursuant to Waldencast’s IPO, the Company issued 11,499,950 Public Warrants to third-party investors. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, Waldencast completed the private sale of 5,933,333 warrants (the “Sponsor Warrants”) to the Sponsor. Also, in connection with the IPO, on February 22, 2021, Waldencast, the Sponsor and Zeno Investment Master Fund (f/k/a Dynamo Master Fund, a member of the Sponsor (“Zeno”), entered into a Forward Purchase Agreement (the “Sponsor FPA”), which was subsequently amended by the assignment and assumption agreement entered into by and between the Sponsor and Burwell Mountain Trust (“Burwell”) on December 20, 2021. Under the assignment and assumption agreement, Sponsor assigned, and Burwell assumed, all of the Sponsor’s rights and benefits under the Sponsor FPA, pursuant to which, Burwell and Zeno committed to subscribe for and purchase 16,000,000 Waldencast Class A ordinary shares and 5,333,333 warrants (the “Sponsor FPA Warrants”) in connection with the closing of the Business Combination. In addition, Waldencast and Beauty Ventures LLC (“Beauty Ventures”) entered into a Forward Purchase Agreement on March 1, 2021 (the “Third-Party FPA”, and together with the Sponsor FPA, the “FPAs”), pursuant to which Beauty Ventures committed to subscribe for and purchase up to 17,300,000 Class A ordinary shares and 5,766,666 warrants (the “Third-Party FPA Warrants” and together with the Sponsor FPA Warrants, the “FPA Warrants”) for an aggregate commitment amount of $173.0 million, in connection with the closing of Waldencast’s initial business combination. Finally, in connection with the Business Combination, Waldencast issued 1,000,000 warrants to settle $1.5 million working capital loans with its Sponsor, the terms of which are identical to the Sponsor FPA Warrants (the “Sponsor Loan Warrants”). The Sponsor Loan Warrants and Third-Party FPA Warrants are collectively referred to as the “Private Placement Warrants”. As of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period), all of the above-noted warrants, totaling 29,533,282, remained issued and outstanding. The Company recognized a loss of $10.3 million and a gain of $6.8 million from the change in fair value of the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss during the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) and for the period from July 28 to December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), respectively. Following the Domestication, Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants each entitle the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional warrants will be issued and only whole warrants can trade. The Public Warrants became exercisable 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination. The Public Warrants will expire June 27, 2027 or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. The Company may redeem the Public Warrants: – in whole and not in part; – upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption provided that holders will be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption, based on the redemption date and the “fair market value” of the Class A ordinary shares; – at a price of $0.01 per warrant if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Class A ordinary shares for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption the warrant holders (the “Reference Value”) equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted). – At a price of $0.01 per warrant if, and only if, the Reference Value equals or exceeds $10.00 per share (as adjusted); and – if the Reference Value is less than $18.00 per share (as adjusted), the Private Placement Warrants must also be concurrently called for redemption on the same terms as the outstanding Public Warrants, as described above. The exercise price and number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described below, the Public Warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Public Warrants. |

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The following table presents information about the Company’s financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy: As of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) (In thousands) Total Quoted Prices in Active Market Significant Other Observable Inputs Significant Other Unobservable Inputs Description (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Assets: Interest rate collar $ 61 $ — $ 61 $ — Liabilities: Derivative warrant liabilities - Public $ 11,155 $ 11,155 $ — $ — Derivative warrant liabilities - Private $ 17,492 $ — $ 17,492 $ — As of December 31, 2022 (Successor Period) (In thousands) Total Quoted Prices in Active Market Significant Other Observable Inputs Significant Other Unobservable Inputs Description (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Assets: Interest rate collar $ 198 $ — $ 198 $ — Liabilities: Derivative warrant liabilities - Public $ 7,130 $ 7,130 $ — $ — Derivative warrant liabilities - Private $ 11,181 $ — $ 11,181 $ — Private derivative warrants are classified as Level 2 financial instruments. The fair value of the Level 2 Private Placement Warrant liabilities has been measured based on the fair value of Public Warrant liabilities. The interest rate collar has been measured at net present value by projecting future cash flows and discounting the future amounts to a present value using market-based observable inputs including interest rate curves and credit spreads. For goodwill (see “ Note 5 . Goodwill”), fair value assessments of the reporting units and the reporting units’ net assets performed for goodwill impairment tests are considered a Level 3 measurement due to the significance of unobservable inputs developed using company-specific information. The Company measures certain long-lived and intangible assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when events occur that indicate an asset group may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of an asset group is not recoverable, an impairment charge is recorded to reduce the carrying amount by the excess over its fair value. Except for the initial valuation of long-lived assets in connection with the Business Combination (see “ Note 3 . Business Combinations” ) and impairment of goodwill discussed above, no long-lived assets were remeasured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the periods presented. |

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] | |
STOCK BASED COMPENSATION | STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION Successor Incentive Plan The Company’s 2022 Incentive Award Plan (the “Plan”) provides for incentives to be provided to selected officers, employees, non-employee directors and consultants of the Company in the form of options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock bonuses or other stock-based awards granted under the Plan. The Plan was adopted by Waldencast’s Board of Directors in June 2022, was approved by its shareholders in July, 2022, and became effective on July 27, 2022 in connection with the closing of the Business Combination. The notional maximum number of ordinary shares available for issuance under the Plan for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) was 16,134,716 (the “Share Reserve”); provided, however the Share Reserve automatically increases on January 1st of each calendar year (each, an “Evergreen Date”), prior to the tenth anniversary of the effective date of the Plan in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 3% of the total number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding on the December 31 st immediately preceding the applicable Evergreen Date and (ii) a number of ordinary shares determined by the Board, including zero, bringing the total number of ordinary shares available for issuance to 19,361,660 as of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period). All and up to the number of ordinary shares reserved for issuance under the Plan as of the effective date of the Plan (subject to an equitable adjustment in the event of a change in capitalization or change in control event) may be granted as an incentive stock options. As of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period), the Company had 4,923,262 shares reserved for future issuances under the Plan. Business Combination On the Closing Date, in connection with the Business Combination, the Company assumed Obagi and Milk’s legacy incentive award plans and outstanding unvested awards granted under those plans. The Company assumed 5,906,300 stock options and 1,776,827 restricted stock units as replacement awards pursuant to the Obagi Merger Agreement, as well as 237,724 stock options and 2,808,131 share appreciation rights as replacement awards pursuant to the Milk Merger Agreement. The total post-combination incremental stock-based compensation was $18.3 million, which is expected to be recognized over the remaining requisite service periods, where $47.7 million represents the fair value of the equity awards as part of the equity purchase consideration. The awards that were replaced had been contingent on a performance condition and as such, the Company is required to use an attribution model in which compensation cost for each vesting tranche is recognized as if each vesting tranche were a separate award. Founder Awards In August 2022 the Company granted a total of 11,500,000 stock options to the two founders of Waldencast that vest based on service over the six-year period from August 2022 through August 2028. The options were granted with four vesting tranches, each tranche with a different exercise price, subject to their continued employment with the Company. Additionally, the Company granted 692,000 founders service-based restricted stock units that cliff vest in August 2025, subject to their continued employment with the Company. Incentive Awards In August 2022, the Company approved incentive awards to employees of Waldencast, Milk, and Obagi. The long-term incentive awards (the “LTI Awards”) are restricted stock units that vest based on both a service condition and meeting either a net sales or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) target in calendar year 2022. These LTI Awards were granted to employees in November 2022. The performance targets for the LTI Awards were met for Milk in 2022. The Company granted LTI Awards will vest one-third each year beginning on February 15, 2023, subject to continued service through such dates. In May 2023, the Board approved a modification to the LTI Awards by waiving the performance conditions for most Obagi and Waldencast employees totaling 137,537 RSUs. The conditions were not waived for the former Chief Executive Officer of Obagi and the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Growth Officer of Waldencast, resulting in forfeiture of 360,000 RSUs. Based on the financial statements prepared by the Company for the period ended December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), the Board certified that the applicable performance goals have not been met and, accordingly, that the 2022 RSUs granted to the Company’s founders will not vest. No additional grants of RSUs were made for the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period). Waldencast One-Time Stock Grant In November 2022, the Company approved a one-time stock grant for certain Milk employees that were not eligible to participate in the LTI award program. A total of 10,000 awards were approved under this program. These awards are service-based restricted stock units that will cliff vest three years from the grant date, subject to continued employment with the Company. Stock option activity for the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) was as follows: Number of Weighted Weighted Aggregate Balance as of December 31, 2022 (Successor) 20,452,155 $ 9.50 8.3 $ 39,118 Granted — — — — Exercised — — — — Forfeited (1,536,797) 5.39 — — Balance as of December 31, 2023 (Successor) 18,915,358 9.10 7.3 47,792 Exercisable as of December 31, 2023 (Successor) 7,227,202 6.11 6.1 34,935 Vested and expected to vest as of December 31, 2023 (Successor) 18,915,358 $ 9.10 7.3 $ 47,792 The fair value of stock option awards was determined on the grant date using the Monte Carlo simulation model for Founder Awards and the Hull-White lattice pricing model was used for replacement awards based on the following weighted-average assumptions: Period from July 28, 2022 to December 31, 2022 Successor Founder Awards Replacement Awards Risk-free interest rate (1) 2.87% - 2.92% 2.79% - 2.80% Expected term (years) (2) 4.7 - 9.9 N/A Exercise multiple (3) N/A 2.30 Expected stock price volatility (4) 39.77% - 44.76% 50.00 % Dividend yield (5) N/A N/A (1) The risk-free rate is based on U.S. Treasury securities with maturities equivalent to the expected term. (2) The expected term for founder awards is based on the assumption that the options are exercised after 50% of the period between the later of the vest date and exercise price achievement date and the end of the contractual term. (3) The exercise multiple is selected from the commonly used exercise multiple range of 2.0x to 2.5x assuming on average the options holders would exercise the options when the ratio of underlying stock price to the exercise price reaches 2.3x. (4) For founder awards, the expected stock price volatility is the median historical volatility of Waldencast’s volatility peer group with a look-back period equal to the contractual term using daily stock prices; for replacement awards, the expected stock price volatility is estimated by adjusting the observed equity volatility for leverage. (5) Waldencast has not paid any dividends historically and does not plan to declare dividends in the foreseeable future and therefore assumed a dividend yield of zero. Restricted stock activity for the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) was as follows: Shares Weighted Average Outstanding as of December 31, 2022 (Successor) 2,802,419 $ 9.16 Granted 2,427,537 8.88 Vested (846,736) 9.93 Forfeited (2,086,389) 9.10 Outstanding as of December 31, 2023 (Successor) 2,296,831 $ 8.72 The unrecognized compensation cost as of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) for stock options and restricted stock was $21.9 million and $5.8 million, respectively. These costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average service period of 4.0 and 1.9 years for stock options and restricted stock, respectively. Stock-based compensation In January 2023, the Company granted an aggregate of 2,290,000 strategic growth incentive 2025 awards (the “SGI 2025 Awards”) in performance vested share units to certain Waldencast employees, in an amount up to 200% of the target share units allocated to the program, which are based on meeting the respective Company’s net revenue and EBITDA targets for the year ended December 31, 2025. The SGI Awards had a grant date fair value per share of $8.88 and require a one-year post vesting holding period once the shares have been awarded. Predecessor Incentive Plan In January 2021, the Predecessor established a Stock Incentive Plan (the “Predecessor Incentive Plan”), under which stock options, stock awards, and restricted stock units (“Predecessor Restricted Stock”) of the Company could be granted to eligible employees, directors, and consultants. Under the Predecessor Incentive Plan, the Company was authorized to issue of a maximum number of 1,500,000 shares of Obagi common stock. Incentive stock options were required to have an exercise price at or above the fair market value of the stock on the date of the grant. The Company’s stock options and Predecessor Restricted Stock granted during the period from January 1 to July 27, 2022 (Predecessor Period) and the year ended December 31, 2021 (Predecessor Period) had service-based and performance-based vesting conditions. The options vested over five years, with 25% of options vesting in four equal quarterly installments at the end of each three-month period through the first anniversary of the grant, and the remaining 75% vesting in a series of five equal annual installments over the five-year period measured from the grant date. The Predecessor Restricted Stock vested in five equal annual installments at the end of each year, over the five-year period from the grant date. Award holders had a ten-year period to exercise the options before they expire. Notwithstanding achievement of the service-based condition, the options and the Predecessor Restricted Stock did not vest or become exercisable until a qualifying transaction was consummated prior to the expiration date. A qualifying transaction consisted of either a change in control event or an underwritten initial public offering by the Company of its equity securities on a U.S. or foreign exchange, which occurred upon Waldencast’s acquisition of Obagi. Stock option activity for the period from January 1 to July 27, 2022 (Predecessor Period) was as follows: Number of Weighted Weighted Aggregate Outstanding as of January 1, 2022 (Predecessor) 800,000 $ 41.10 9.1 $ 16,456 Granted — — — — Exercised — — — — Forfeited 25,200 41.10 8.6 639 Vested — — — — Outstanding as of July 27, 2022 (Predecessor) 774,800 $ 41.10 8.5 $ 19,659 Stock option activity for the year ended December 31, 2021 (Predecessor Period) was as follows: Number of Weighted Weighted Aggregate Outstanding as of January 1, 2021 (Predecessor) — $ — — $ — Granted 800,000 41.10 9.1 16,456 Exercised — — — — Forfeited — — — — Vested — — — — Outstanding as of December 31, 2021 (Predecessor) 800,000 $ 41.10 9.1 $ 16,456 The weighted average fair value per share of the awards granted during from January 1 to July 27, 2022 (Predecessor Period) was $15.55 for stock options and $38.90 for Predecessor Restricted Stock. The weighted average fair value per share of the awards granted during the year ended December 31, 2021 (Predecessor Period) was $15.55 for stock options and $38.68 for Predecessor Restricted Stock. The unrecognized compensation cost as of December 31, 2021 (Predecessor Period) for stock options and Predecessor Restricted Stock was $9.4 million and $12.4 million, respectively. Prior to Waldencast’s acquisition of Obagi, the Company did not expect the occurrence of a qualifying transaction event to be “probable”, and therefore no expense had been recorded. The fair value of stock option awards was determined on the grant date using the Black-Scholes valuation model based on the following weighted-average assumptions: Period from January 1 Year ended December 31, 2021 Predecessor Risk-free interest rate (1) — 0.68 % Expected term (years) (2) — 6.2 Expected stock price volatility (3) — 43.00 % Dividend yield (4) — N/A Common stock per share value — $ 38.68 (1) The risk-free rate is based on U.S. Treasury securities with maturities equivalent to the expected term. (2) The expected term is the estimated length of time the grants are expected to be outstanding before it is exercised or terminated. This number is calculated as the midpoint between the requisite service period and the contractual term of the award, as the Company does not have any historical data that would provide a reasonable basis to estimate the expected term for the option. (3) The expected price volatility is based on the average of the historical volatility of comparable public companies over a period consistent with the expected term. (4) The Predecessor historically made distributions to its shareholder but the Company does not plan to declare dividends in the foreseeable future and therefore assumed a dividend yield of zero. Predecessor Restricted Stock activity for the period from January 1 to July 27, 2022 (Predecessor Period) was as follows: Shares Weighted Average Outstanding as of January 1, 2022 (Predecessor) 243,307 $ 38.68 Granted 1,754 68.19 Exercised — — Forfeited 10,219 38.68 Vested — — Outstanding as of July 27, 2022 (Predecessor) 234,842 $ 38.90 The Company’s Restricted Stock activity for the year ended December 31, 2021 (Predecessor Period) was as follows: Shares Weighted Average Outstanding as of January 1, 2021 (Predecessor) — $ — Granted 243,307 38.68 Exercised — — Forfeited — — Vested — — Outstanding as of December 31, 2021 (Predecessor) 243,307 $ 38.68 |

Equity [Abstract] | |
SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY | SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY Successor’s Share Capital Under the Company’s Memorandum of Association (the “Constitutional Document”), its authorized share capital consists of 1,000,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, 100,000,000 Class B ordinary shares and 25,000,000 Preference Shares, each having a par value of $0.0001. As of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period), there were 101,228,857 and 20,847,553 Class A and Class B ordinary shares, respectively, issued and outstanding. The Company did not have any Preference Shares issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period). Each Class A ordinary share is entitled to one vote per share. The Company can, at the discretion of its Board of Directors, declare dividends and distributions out of the funds of the Company lawfully available therefor. In the event of a voluntary or involuntary liquidation or wind-up, assets available for distribution among the holders of Class A ordinary shares will be distributed on a pro rata basis. Each Class B ordinary share is entitled to one vote per share and will vote together with holders of Class A ordinary shares as a single class. Class B ordinary shares are non-economic shares that are not entitled to dividends. Upon a liquidation, dissolution or winding up the Company, the holders of Class B ordinary shares will not be entitled to receive any assets of the Company, except to the extent of the par value of their shares, pro rata with the distributions that the Class A ordinary shares. As outlined in “ Note 3 . Business Combinations,” Class B ordinary shares were issued by the Company to the Milk Members in connection with the Business Combination, giving rise to noncontrolling interest in the Company’s controlled subsidiary, Waldencast Partners LP. As such, the Constitutional Document prohibits issuances of additional shares of Class B ordinary shares, unless issued to a noncontrolling interest in connection with the Company’s Up-C structure. Class B ordinary shares are convertible into Class A ordinary shares on a one-to-one basis at the option of the holder. If such option is exercised, the exchanged Class B ordinary shares will automatically be surrendered and retired for no consideration. If the Company issues or redeems Class B ordinary shares, Waldencast Partners LP is obligated to issue or redeem a corresponding number of Waldencast LP partnership units, such that the number of issued and outstanding partnership units at any time will correspond and be equivalent to the then number of issued and outstanding Class B ordinary shares. Predecessor’s Share Capital The Predecessor’s equity structure consisted of a single class of ordinary shares. In November 2020, the Obagi Board of Directors approved (i) an increase in the number of the Company’s authorized common shares from 50,000 to 25,000,000, (ii) an issuance of 4,000,000 common shares to ZhongHua, and (iii) a two-for-one split of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares all of which became effective in December 2020. The Company was held by a single shareholder, and the share issuance to ZhongHua was deemed akin to a stock split. All share, per share amounts and related shareholders’ equity balances presented for Predecessor Periods have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the impact of the Stock Split. As of December 31, 2021 (Predecessor Period) the Predecessor had 25,000,000 ordinary shares authorized and 8,000,002 shares issued and outstanding. Predecessor’s ordinary shares had a par value of $0.50 per share and each share was entitled to one vote. The Predecessor was able to, at the discretion of its Board of Directors, declare dividends and distributions out of the funds of the Company lawfully available therefor. Payments of dividends and distributions were limited to realized or unrealized profits of the Company. The Company did not pay any dividends during the period from January 1 to July 27, 2022 (Predecessor Period). In the years ended December 31, 2021 (Predecessor Period) and 2020 (Predecessor Period), Obagi, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, paid $2.0 million (approximately $0.25 per share) and $2.0 million (approximately $0.26 per share), respectively, in dividends to its shareholder. |

INCOME TAX BENEFIT | INCOME TAX BENEFIT The Predecessor was domiciled in the Cayman Islands. Following the Business Combination, the Company, domiciled in the Bailiwick of Jersey, is subject to taxation in the U.S. and various states jurisdictions. ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”) indicates that the federal statutory income tax rate of a foreign reporting entity be used when preparing the rate reconciliation disclosure. As such, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries use the statutory income tax rate in the Bailiwick of Jersey for the Successor Period and the Cayman Islands for the Predecessor Period, which was 0%. The Company’s consolidated pretax loss for the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period), the period from July 28, 2022 to December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), the period from January 1, 2022 to July 27, 2022 (Predecessor Period), and the year ended December 31, 2021 (Predecessor Period) were generated by domestic and foreign operations as follows: Year ended December 31, 2023 Period from Period from January 1 to July 27, 2022 Year ended December 31, 2021 (In thousands) Successor Predecessor Loss before income taxes: United States $ (82,868) $ (125,281) $ (17,676) $ (15,320) Foreign (30,075) (1,079) (3,268) 5,346 Total $ (112,943) $ (126,360) $ (20,944) $ (9,974) The provision for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period), the period from July 28, 2022 to December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), the period from January 1, 2022 to July 27, 2022 (Predecessor Period), and the year ended December 31, 2021 (Predecessor Period) consisted of the following: Year ended December 31, 2023 Period from July 28 to December 31, 2022 Period from January 1 to July 27, 2022 Year ended December 31, 2021 (In thousands) Successor Predecessor Current provision (benefit): Federal $ 12 $ — $ — $ — State 32 20 19 58 Foreign 2 — 4 170 46 20 23 228 Deferred (income) expense: Federal (7,927) (4,557) 38 7,597 State 906 (1,266) 52 1,777 Foreign — — — — (7,021) (5,823) 90 9,374 Net income tax (benefit) provision $ (6,975) $ (5,803) $ 113 $ 9,602 The components of income tax expense related to the following: Year ended December 31, 2023 Period from July 28, 2022 to December 31, 2022 Period from January 1, 2022 to July 27, 2022 Year ended December 31, 2021 Successor Predecessor Income tax benefit at Bailiwick of Jersey for Successor and Income tax benefit at Cayman Islands for Predecessor statutory rate — % — % — % — % U.S./foreign tax rate differential 15.9 % 20.7 % 17.7 % 30.5 % State income tax benefit, net of federal benefit 2.1 % 2.4 % 1.4 % 1.8 % Permanent Items (0.1) % 0.2 % (0.1) % (0.2) % Noncontrolling interest (1.8 %) (1.1 %) 0.0 % 0.0 % Change in valuation allowance (10.4 %) (6.1 %) (16.9 %) (141.0 %) Transaction bonuses — % — % 8.6 % — % Transaction costs — % — % (11.3) % — % PPP Loan forgiveness — % — % — % 14.4 % True-Ups — % — % — % (1.8) % Tax credits — % — % — % — % Equity Compensation 0.5 % — % — % — % Goodwill impairment — % (11.4) % — % — % Total income tax (benefit) expense 6.2 % 4.6 % (0.6) % (96.3) % As of each reporting date, the Company considers new evidence, both positive and negative, that could affect its view of the future realization of deferred tax assets. As part of the Business Combination, the Company determined that there was sufficient positive evidence to conclude that it was more likely than not that additional deferred taxes would be realizable through the reversal of existing deferred tax liabilities listed below. It therefore reduced the valuation allowance accordingly. As of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period), a valuation allowance of $19.8 million has been provided for on the deferred tax assets related to the Company’s investment in Waldencast Partners LP. If or when recognized, the tax benefits related to any reversal of valuation allowance will be accounted for as a reduction of income tax expense. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of (a) temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes, and (b) operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to portions of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities as of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) and December 31, 2022 (Successor Period) are presented below: As of December 31, 2023 As of December 31, 2022 (In thousands) Successor Deferred tax assets: Accrued interest to foreign related parties $ 2,771 $ 1,660 Lease liability 2,222 2,434 Formation costs 1,421 1,509 Net operating losses 20,669 13,117 Inventory reserve 2,134 1,731 Other temporary differences 962 646 Accrued compensation 1,112 1,377 R&D tax credits 482 379 Non-deductible interest carryover 5,077 3,350 Below market contract 1,469 2,373 Capitalized research 2,811 2,538 Investment in Waldencast LP 9,059 3,466 Total deferred tax assets 50,189 34,580 Deferred tax liabilities: Goodwill (1,016) (285) Fixed asset basis (92) (370) Lease asset (1,015) (2,025) Intangibles (43,543) (46,206) Total deferred tax liabilities (45,666) (48,886) Net deferred tax (liabilities) assets 4,523 (14,306) Less: valuation allowance (19,752) (7,944) Net deferred tax liabilities $ (15,229) $ (22,250) Net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards as of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) and December 31, 2022 (Successor Period) were as follows: As of December 31, 2023 As of December 31, 2022 Successor (In thousands) Amount Expiration Year Amount Expiration Year Net operating losses, federal $ 75,142 Do Not Expire $ 50,772 Do Not Expire Net operating losses, state $ 64,984 2039 - 2043 $ 39,366 2039-2042 Tax Credits, federal $ 387 2039 - 2041 $ 283 2038-2039 Tax Credits, state $ 121 Do Not Expire $ 121 Do Not Expire Net operating losses, Hong Kong $ 375 Do Not Expire $ — Net operating losses, Vietnam $ 1,929 2028 $ — Pursuant to Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “IRC”) annual use of the Company’s net operating losses (“NOLs”) and R&D credit carryforwards may be limited in the event a cumulative change in ownership of more than 50.0% occurs within a three-year period. The Company has not undergone an analysis to determine whether this limitation would apply to the utilization of the NOL carryforward. However, as the federal NOLs do not expire, the Company does not believe that any potential limitations to federal or state NOL’s, or federal credit carryforwards, if applicable, would be material to the financial statements. The Company recognizes a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits, and uncertain income tax positions must meet a more likely than not recognition threshold to be recognized. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the income tax expense line in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) or December 31, 2022 ( Successor Period). The Company does not expect material changes to its unrecognized tax benefits for the twelve month period following the reporting date. As of December 31, 2023 , (Successor Period) there were no a ctive taxing authority examinations in any of the Company's major tax jurisdictions. The Company remains subject to examination for federal and state income tax purposes for the tax years ending 2019 through 2023 (Successor Period). For the tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2022, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 eliminates the option to currently deduct R&D expenses and requires taxpayers to capitalize and amortize them over five years for research activities performed in the U.S. and 15 years for research activities performed outside the U.S. pursuant to IRC Section 174. Although Congress is considering legislation that would repeal or defer this capitalization and amortization requirement, it is not certain that this provision will be repealed or otherwise modified. If the requirement is not repealed or replaced, it will decrease our tax deduction for R&D expense in future years. |

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Waldencast Subscription Agreement with PIPE Investors In September 2023, the Company entered into subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain investors (collectively, the “2023 PIPE Investors”), pursuant to, and on the terms and subject to the conditions of which, the 2023 PIPE Investors collectively subscribed for 14,000,000 Class A ordinary shares (the “PIPE Shares”), in a private placement at a purchase price of $5.00 each per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $70.0 million (the “2023 PIPE Investment”). The Subscription Agreements relating to approximately $68.0 million of proceeds were consummated in September 2023, with the remaining approximately $2.0 million of proceeds related to the closing of the Subscription Agreements in November 2023, following receipt of regulatory approvals (the “2023 PIPE Closings” and the date on which such Closing occurred, the “PIPE Closing Date”).” No Class B ordinary shares, warrants or other securities of the Company were issued in connection with the 2023 PIPE Investment. Indemnification Agreements The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. The indemnification agreements provide, to the fullest extent permitted under law, indemnification against all expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement relating to, arising out of or resulting from an indemnitee’s status as a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of the Company or any other corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other entity which such person is or was serving at the Company’s request as a director, officer, employee or agent. In addition, the indemnification agreements provide that the Company will advance, to the extent not prohibited by law, the expenses incurred by the indemnitee in connection with any proceeding, and such advancement will be made within thirty (30) days after the receipt by the Company of a statement requesting such advances from time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of any proceeding. Prior to the Business Combination Sponsor Shares In January 2021, the Sponsor purchased 7,187,500 Class B ordinary shares for an aggregate purchase price of $0.025 million, or approximately $0.003 per share (the “sponsor shares”). In February 2021, the Sponsor transferred 20,000 Class B ordinary shares to each of the Company’s then-serving independent directors, Ms. Sarah Brown, Ms. Juliette Hickman, Ms. Lindsay Pattison and Mr. Zack Werner (the “Investor Directors”), resulting in the Sponsor holding 7,107,500 Class B ordinary shares. In March 2021, Waldencast effected a share capitalization resulting in the Sponsor holding an aggregate of 8,545,000 Class B ordinary shares. As such, the Sponsor and the Investor Directors collectively owned 20% of Waldencast’s issued and outstanding shares upon consummation of its IPO. In connection with the Business Combination, 8,625,000 sponsor shares held by the Sponsor and Investor Directors converted automatically, on a one-for-one basis, into one Class A ordinary share in accordance with their terms. Forward Purchase Agreements In connection with Waldencast’s IPO, in February 2021, the Sponsor and Zeno (a member of the Sponsor) entered into the Sponsor FPA, which was subsequently amended by the assignment and assumption agreement entered into by and between the Sponsor and Burwell in December 2021. Under the assignment and assumption agreement, Sponsor assigned, and Burwell assumed, all of the Sponsor’s rights and benefits under the Sponsor FPA, pursuant to which, Burwell and Zeno committed to subscribe for and purchase 16,000,000 Class A ordinary shares and 5,333,333 warrants for an aggregate commitment amount of $160.0 million in connection with the closing of Waldencast’s initial business combination. In addition, Beauty Ventures entered into the Third-Party FPA with Waldencast in March 2021, pursuant to which Beauty Ventures committed to subscribe for and purchase up to 17,300,000 Class A ordinary shares and up to 5,766,666 warrants for an aggregate commitment amount of $173.0 million, in connection with the closing of the Company’s initial business combination. Members of the Sponsor or their affiliates will begin to receive a twenty percent (20%) performance fee allocation on the return of the forward purchase securities in excess of the hurdle rate, calculated on the total return generated from forward purchase securities (whether by dividend, transfer or increase in value as measured from date of issuance), when the return of such securities (less the expenses of Beauty Ventures) underlying the Third-Party FPA exceeds a hurdle rate of five percent (5%) accrued annually until the fifth anniversary of the issuance of such securities. In the event of a transfer and subsequent sale of any forward purchase securities prior to such fifth anniversary, the performance fee for the period between such transfer and such fifth anniversary will be calculated based on the proceeds generated by such sale. The FPA investments were consummated substantially concurrently with the consummation of the Business Combination. Private Placement Warrants Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased 5,933,333 Private Placement Warrants at a purchase price of $1.50 per private placement warrant, or $8.9 million in the aggregate. Each Private Placement Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share for $11.50 per share. The Private Placement Warrants may not be redeemed by the Company so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by holders other than the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants. The Sponsor, or its permitted transferees, has the option to exercise the Private Placement Warrants on a cashless basis. The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Private Placement Warrants: (i) are not redeemable by the Company, (ii) may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Sponsor or any of its permitted transferees and (iii) are entitled to registration rights (including the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the private placement warrants). Additionally, the purchasers agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Placement Warrants, including the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants (except to certain permitted transferees), until 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination. In connection with the Business Combination, each of the 5,933,333 Private Placement Warrants converted automatically into a warrant to acquire one Class A ordinary share. Registration Rights The holders of the sponsor shares, Private Placement Warrants, and warrants that were issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loan (as defined below) (and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon (i) the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants, including the Working Capital Warrants (as defined below) and (ii) the conversion of the sponsor shares) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement dated March 15, 2021 (the “Legacy Registration Rights Agreement”) requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the sponsor shares, only after conversion to Class A ordinary shares). The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of the Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The Company is responsible for the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. The Sponsor, the members of the Sponsor and certain of the Company’s shareholders, Obagi and Milk and certain of their respective affiliates entered into an amended and restated registration rights agreement, dated July 27, 2022, with the Company (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to register for resale, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, certain Class A ordinary shares and our other securities that are held by the parties thereto from time to time, subject to the restrictions on transfer therein. The Registration Rights Agreement amended and restated the Legacy Registration Rights Agreement and terminates with respect to any party thereto, on the date that such party no longer holds any Registrable Securities (as defined therein). In August 2022, the Company filed a registration statement on Form F-1 to register up to 121,120,063 Class A ordinary shares, consisting of (i) 8,545,000 Class A ordinary shares converted from the sponsor shares; (ii) 80,000 Class A ordinary shares converted from the sponsor shares held by the Investor Directors; (iii) 20,000 Class A ordinary shares issued to Aaron Chatterley in a private placement exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination; (iv) 28,237,506 Class A ordinary shares issued pursuant to the Obagi Merger Agreement; (v) 21,104,225 Class A ordinary shares issuable in exchange for 21,104,225 Class B ordinary shares pursuant to the Milk Equity Purchase Agreement; (vi) 11,800,000 Class A ordinary shares issued in the PIPE investments; (vii) 33,300,000 Class A ordinary shares issued pursuant to the FPAs; and (viii) 18,033,332 Class A ordinary shares issuable in respect of the private placement warrants, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. Related Party Notes and Advances In January 2021, Waldencast issued a promissory note to the Sponsor (the “January Note”), pursuant to which Waldencast could borrow an aggregate principal amount of $0.3 million. The note was non-interest bearing and payable on the completion of the IPO. There were no borrowings outstanding under the note at the closing of the IPO. In August 2021, Waldencast issued a promissory note to the Sponsor, pursuant to which it could borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $1,500,000 from the Sponsor (the “Working Capital Loan”). The note was non-interest bearing, unsecured and due and payable in full on the earlier of (x) March 18, 2023 and (y) the date Waldencast consummated its initial business combination. In October 2021, Waldencast drew down the entire available balance of the promissory note and the Sponsor deposited $1,500,000 in Waldencast’s operating bank account. As of the Closing Date, there was a total aggregate principal amount of $1,500,000 in outstanding borrowings under the Convertible Working Capital Note. In connection with the closing of Business Combination, the Sponsor elected to convert $1,500,000 of the Working Capital Loan balance into warrants at a price of $1.50 per warrant for a total of 1,000,000 warrants (the “Working Capital Warrants”). The Working Capital Warrants issuance was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. Borrowings under the Convertible Working Capital Note are no longer available. In addition, Waldencast issued working capital promissory notes to the Sponsor on (i) in May 2022, for up to $600,000 (“May Working Capital Note”) and (ii) July 2022, for up to $450,000 (“July Working Capital Note” and, together with May Working Capital Note, the “Non-Convertible Working Capital Notes”), in each case, for working capital purposes. As of the Closing Date, there was a total aggregate principal amount of $1,050,000 in outstanding borrowings under the Non-Convertible Working Capital Notes. In connection with the closing of Business Combination, the aggregate outstanding balance under the Non-Convertible Working Capital Notes of $1,050,000 was repaid to the Sponsor. Borrowings under the Non-Convertible Working Capital Notes are no longer available. Administrative Services Agreement Waldencast entered into an agreement whereby, commencing on March 15, 2021, through the earlier of the consummation of a business combination or a liquidation, Waldencast agreed to pay the Sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for office space, administrative, financial and support services. Waldencast incurred approximately $65,000 in administrative expenses under the agreement through the Closing Date, but ceased to incur these fees following the completion of the Business Combination. As of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) and December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), the Company had less than $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, in related party accounts payable in consolidated balance sheets. The Company ceased to incur these fees following the completion of the Business Combination. Lock-Up Agreements Pursuant to a Letter Agreement, dated March 15, 2021, between the initial shareholders of Waldencast Acquisition Corp. and Waldencast (the “Letter Agreement”), such shareholders agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their sponsor shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the Closing Date; and (B) following the Closing Date, (x) if the last reported sale price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share dividends, rights issuances, consolidations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and other similar transactions) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Company’s initial business combination or (y) the date on which it completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of its public shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property (except with respect to permitted transferees) (the “Letter Agreement Lock-Up Provisions”). Any permitted transferees would be subject to the same restrictions and other agreements of the initial shareholders of Waldencast Acquisition Corp. with respect to any sponsor shares. Such Letter Agreement Lock-Up Provisions expired on July 27, 2023. In addition, pursuant to the Sponsor FPA, Burwell and Zeno agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Class A ordinary shares according to the same Letter Agreement Lock-Up Provisions. Any permitted transferees would be subject to the same restrictions and other agreements as a purchaser under the Sponsor FPA. The Sponsor FPA lock-up period expired on July 27, 2023. Waiver and Agreement In connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company waived certain provisions as contemplated by the Letter Agreement, dated March 15, 2021, between the initial shareholders of Waldencast Acquisition Corp. and Waldencast (the “Letter Agreement”) and certain other agreements related thereto (collectively, the “Waiver”), with respect to any securities held by an Insider (as defined in the Letter Agreement) as of the closing the Business Combination (the “Lock-Up Securities”) that would disallow a pledge by such Insider of the Lock-Up Securities in a transaction for the purpose of financing such Insider’s payment obligations owed in connection with the closing of the Business Combination. In connection with such Waiver, the Company entered into that certain Waiver and Agreement, dated as of July 25, 2022, with Burwell (the “Waiver and Agreement”), to permit a pledge by Burwell of its Lock-Up Securities to be used as a portion of the collateral under a loan to finance Burwell’s payment obligations under the Sponsor FPA in connection with the closing of the Business Combination. Pursuant to the terms of the Waiver and Agreement, in the event of a foreclosure, any such lenders or a collateral agents will be required to execute a joinder to the Letter Agreement pursuant to which they will be bound by the transfer restrictions of the Lock-Up Securities (including the foreclosure of or other exercise of remedies under any such loan documentation) in the Letter Agreement for the duration of such agreement. We also agreed to provide any such lender or collateral agent with customary registration rights in the event of default, foreclosure or other exercise of remedies following the respective Lock-Up Periods (as defined in the Letter Agreement). Transactions with Cedarwalk in connection with the Business Combination In connection with the Obagi China Distribution, the Company entered into an Intellectual Property License Agreement (the “IP License Agreement”), a Global Supply Services Agreement (the “Supply Agreement”), and a Transition Services Agreement (the “Transition Services Agreement”) with Obagi Hong Kong, which is owned by Cedarwalk, the former owner of Obagi and a beneficial holder of 24.5% of the Company’s fully diluted Class A ordinary shares as of the closing of the Business Combination. Under the IP License Agreement, the Company exclusively licenses intellectual property relating to the Obagi brand to the Obagi China Business, and the Company retains the rights to such intellectual property to conduct the Obagi-branded business worldwide except for the China Region. The Obagi China Business pays the Company a royalty on gross sales of licensed products.

During the period from July 28 to December 31, 2022 (Successor Period) net revenue generated from related party royalties was $0.2 million. Under the Supply Agreement, the Company supplies or causes to be supplied through certain Obagi CMOs products for distribution and sale in the China Region by the Obagi China Business. The term of the Supply Agreement is perpetual, subject to termination for material breach and failure to cure or termination in the event that the IP License Agreement is terminated. The Company anticipates it will continue supplying the Obagi China Business with products at an agreed-upon markup, net of agreed-upon discounts as applicable until the Obagi China Business has been added as a party to Obagi’s CMO agreements, at which time it will then order directly from the CMOs. During the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) net revenue generated from supplying products to the Obagi China Business was $5.6 million and the related cost of goods sold was $1.7 million. During the period from July 28 to December 31, 2022 (Successor Period) net revenue generated from supplying products to the Obagi China Business was $17.0 million and the related cost of goods sold was $5.1 million.

The transition services were provided for an initial term of up to twelve twelve Transactions with Waldencast Ventures LP Waldencast Ventures LP is a shareholder of the Company and is controlled by Michel Brousset. The Company reimbursed Waldencast Ventures LP with respect to salary and other costs relating to Michel Brousset and Hind Sebti incurred by Waldencast Ventures LP in 2022 following the Business Combination as well as a portion of rent related to the Company’s London offices. For the year-ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) the total amount reimbursed was $0.3 million.

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
SEGMENT REPORTING | SEGMENT REPORTING The Company reports segment information based on the management approach. The management approach designates the internal reporting used by management for making decisions and assessing performance as the source of our reportable segments. Prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, the Predecessor operated its business and reported its results through a single operating and reportable segment. Following the Business Combination, the Company determined that it has two operating and reportable segments: Obagi Skincare and Milk Makeup. See. “ Note 3 , Business Combinations .” Obagi Skincare - this segment consists of the business of Obagi. Obagi’s business activities include developing, marketing, and selling skin health products. These assets and activities are conducted by Obagi Global Holdings Limited and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Milk Makeup - this segment consists of the business of Milk. Milk’s business activities include developing, marketing, and selling cosmetics, skincare, and other beauty products. Milk generates revenue from the sale of cosmetics to retailers, including off-price retailers, and sales DTC via its website. Central costs include operating expenses related to corporate overhead expenses such as personnel-related costs, professional fees, interest expense related to the 2022 Credit Agreement, and the change in the fair value of derivatives. These costs are not used in evaluating the results of, or in allocating resources to, the Company’s segments. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in “ Note 2 , Summary of Significant Accounting Policies .” The following is a reconciliation of financial measures of the Company’s segments to the consolidated totals: Year ended December 31, 2023 Period from July 28 to December 31, 2022 Successor Successor (In thousands) Obagi Skincare Milk Makeup Total Obagi Skincare Milk Makeup Total Net revenue $ 117,651 $ 100,487 $ 218,138 $ 61,090 $ 31,283 $ 92,373 Cost of goods sold 41,069 35,492 76,561 44,973 15,684 60,657 Gross profit $ 76,582 $ 64,995 $ 141,577 $ 16,117 $ 15,599 $ 31,716 The Company evaluates the performance of its reportable segments based on segment gross profit.

Condensed Financial Information Disclosure [Abstract] | |
SUCCESSOR CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF WALDENCAST PLC (PARENT COMPANY ONLY) | SUCCESSOR CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF WALDENCAST PLC (PARENT COMPANY ONLY) The parent company financial statements for Waldencast Plc should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes thereto. For purposes of this condensed financial information, the Company’s wholly owned and majority owned subsidiaries are recorded based upon its proportionate share of its subsidiaries’ net assets (similar to presenting them on the equity method). Waldencast plc has no material operations of its own and conducts substantially all of its activities through its wholly owned subsidiaries. Waldencast plc has no significant assets or liabilities other than derivative warrant liabilities and cash, most expenditures paid by Waldencast plc are allocated to its subsidiaries. Waldencast Finco Limited, a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Waldencast plc, is the borrower under the 2022 Credit Agreement. The terms and conditions of the 2022 Credit Agreement (see Note 7 for definition) limit the ability of Waldencast plc’s wholly owned subsidiaries to make certain distributions or dividends, subject to a number of enumerated exceptions. Due to the aforementioned restrictions, substantially all of the Successor period net assets of Waldencast Plc’s subsidiaries are restricted. Since the restricted net assets of consolidated subsidiaries exceed 25% of the consolidated net assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, the accompanying condensed parent company financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Rule 12-04, Schedule 1 of Regulation S-X. This information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements. The following condensed financial statements have been presented on a “parent-only” basis. Under a parent-only presentation, Waldencast plc’s investment in its subsidiaries is presented under the equity method of accounting.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUN_2
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 31, 2023 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation Waldencast has prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In accounting for the Business Combination, Waldencast was deemed to be the legal and the accounting acquirer (referred to as the “Successor”), however, Obagi was deemed to be the predecessor entity for financial reporting purposes (referred to as the “Predecessor”). Under the acquisition method of accounting, Waldencast’s assets and liabilities retained their carrying values and the assets and liabilities associated with Obagi and Milk were recorded at their fair values measured as of the acquisition date, which created a new basis of accounting. This change in accounting basis is represented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements by a black line, which appears between the columns entitled Successor and Predecessor in the financial statements and in the relevant accompanying notes. The black line signifies that the consolidated financial statements presented for the Company after the Closing Date (the “Successor Period”) are presented on a measurement basis different from those for the period prior to the Closing Date (the “Predecessor Periods”). As a result of the application of the acquisition method of accounting as of the Closing Date, the financial statements for the Predecessor Periods (which only includes Obagi, including the Obagi China Business, through July 27, 2022) and for the Successor Period (which includes Waldencast and its subsidiaries from July 28, 2022 to December 31, 2022) and the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) are presented on a different basis of accounting and are, therefore, not comparable. Unless the context requires otherwise, the “Company” refers to Obagi for periods prior to the Business Combination and to Waldencast together with its consolidated subsidiaries, as the Successor for periods after the Business Combination. |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation —The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Waldencast and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company consolidates entities in which the Company has a majority voting interest. The Company eliminates intercompany transactions and accounts in consolidation. The Company separately presents within equity on the consolidated balance sheets the ownership interests attributable to parties with noncontrolling interests in the Company's consolidated subsidiaries, and separately presents net income attributable to such parties on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates —The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in the financial statements include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, stock-based compensation, goodwill valuation, inventory valuation, and valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and assumptions that it believes are reasonable at the time. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making assumptions and estimates, changes in circumstances could result in actual results differing from those estimates, and such differences could be material to the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. |
Concentrations of Credit Risk | Concentrations of Credit Risk —Financial instruments that subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash balances in accounts held by major banks and financial institutions located primarily in the U.S. and considers such risk to be minimal. Such bank deposits from time to time may be exposed to credit risk in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit. The Company’s accounts receivable primarily represent amounts due from distributors, and third-party logistics companies, directly and indirectly from major retailers, and from group purchasing organizations located both inside and outside the U.S. The Company mitigates its credit risks by performing ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial conditions, requiring customer advance payments in certain circumstances. The Company generally does not require collateral. As of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period), one U.S. customer accounted for 27% of accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), two U.S. customers accounted for 50% and 19% of accounts receivable, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period), one vendor exceeded 10% of inventory purchases. During the period from July 28, 2022 to December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), one vendor exceeded 10% of inventory purchases. During the period from January 1, 2022 to July 27, 2022 (Predecessor Period), three vendors exceeded 10% of inventory purchases. During the year ended December 31, 2023 (Successor Period), the Company purchased approximately 17% of inventory from one vendor. During the period from July 28, 2022 to December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), the Company purchased approximately 27% of inventory from one vendor. During the period from January 1, 2022 to July 27, 2022 (Predecessor Period), the Company purchased approximately 23%, 12%, and 12% of inventory, respectively, from three vendors. As of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period), one vendor accounted for 18% of accounts payable. As of December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), two vendors accounted for 15% and 12%, respectively, of accounts payable. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents —The Company considers highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. |
Restricted Cash | Restricted Cash —The Company’s restricted cash represents funds that were not accessible for general purpose cash needs due to contractual limitations. As of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period), the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash balance of $22.6 million shown on the consolidated statements of cash flows consisted of $21.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash balance of $10.2 million shown on the consolidated statements of cash flows consisted of $8.7 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The restricted cash balance represented cash in a savings account held by a major bank located in the U.S. and provides collateral for corporate credit cards obtained by the Predecessor for its employees. The Company is required to hold the restricted cash in the bank’s savings account. Following the acquisition of Milk, the Company had an additional $0.8 million in restricted cash held with a financial institution as collateral for a lease deposit. The deposit is refundable at the end of the lease in November 2030, provided that Milk does not default on its lease payments. |
Inventories | Inventories —The Company’s products are produced by third-party contract manufacturers (“CMOs). Inventories consist of finished goods, work-in-process products and promotional products, valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the standard cost method, which approximates actual costs determined on a first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) basis. In order to track inventory quantities, the Company uses a perpetual inventory system. Promotional products are charged to cost of goods sold at the time the product is shipped to the Company’s customer. The Company has in-transit inventory at any given period. Assessment of in-transit inventory is required to determine inventory balances accurately at period-end. Inventory is recognized when the Company holds title and bears substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership. In many transactions, the transfer of title and the risks and rewards of ownership are dictated by contractually specified shipping terms, which may take the form of free-on-board (“FOB”) shipping point or FOB destination point. If historical costs exceed the net realizable value at the balance sheet date, the Company adjusts the inventory to net realizable value (i.e., if impairment is identified, the Company records write-downs of inventories to cost of goods sold in the period in which it occurs). The Company evaluates the carrying value of inventories on a regular basis and determines the need to write down carrying values by considering historical and anticipated future sales compared with quantities on hand, the price the Company expects to obtain for products in their respective markets compared with historical cost, and the remaining shelf life of goods on hand. Obsolete, Scrap and Expired Inventory The inventory provision is set up for inventory that is expected to become obsolete or have a decreased value due to market trends or product upgrades. It accounts for losses that may occur when the inventory cannot be sold at its full cost. The Company regularly monitors any inventory that is not expected to be sold prior to the expiration date and historically slow-moving inventory based on the remaining shelf life and incorporates these considerations into its reserve analysis. Additionally, each period, Management will evaluate whether any additional write downs are required in addition to the calculated reserve amount (generally, by stock keeping unit (“SKU”) and/or lot). Specific reserves may relate to known matters, such as quality concerns or a discontinued product. Sales Returns Historically, the Company has not experienced a material amount of product returns. Certain arrangements may give the Company’s customers the right to return products. In addition, when customer arrangements do not give the Company’s customer the explicit right to return products, the Company may accept returns on a discretionary basis. The Company records a return asset for products returned by customers measured at the former carrying amount of the inventory, less any expected costs to recover the goods and potential decreases in value. If the returned inventory is not considered re-sellable, it will be written off to cost of goods sold. When customers have the right to receive a refund for defective or damaged products (as opposed to a replacement product), the right is accounted for as a right of return under ASC 606. When customers have the right to receive a replacement product for defective or damaged products, the right is accounted for as a warranty under ASC 460-10, Guarantees and the Company accrues for replacement costs. |
Derivatives | Derivatives —The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), which requires additional disclosures about the Company’s objectives and strategies for using derivative instruments, how the derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for, and how the derivative instruments and related hedging items affect the consolidated financial statements. The Company uses interest rate collars to mitigate interest risk associated with its variable rate credit agreements. See “ Note 9 . Financial Instruments” for further discussion of the interest rate collar. Terms of debt instruments are reviewed to determine whether they contain embedded derivative instruments that are required to be accounted for separately from the host contract and recorded on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value under ASC 815. An evaluation of specifically identified conditions is made to determine whether the fair value of warrants issued is required to be classified as equity or as a derivative liability. The fair value of derivative liabilities, if any, is required to be revalued at each reporting date, with corresponding changes in fair value recorded in current period operating results. Warrant Liabilities The Company accounts for Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants (each as defined below) as liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815. Specifically, the Public and Private Placement Warrants meet the definition of a derivative but do not qualify for an exception from derivative accounting since the warrants are not indexed to the Company’s stock and, therefore, are precluded from equity classification. Since the Public and Private Placement Warrants meet the definition of a derivative under ASC 815, the Company measures the warrants at fair value at inception and at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in change in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in the period of change. See “ Note 9 . Financial Instruments” for further discussion of the warrants, including the FPA Warrants (as defined below). |
Fair Value Measurement | Fair Value Measurement —The Company uses valuation approaches that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels: • Level 1 inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date. • Level 2 inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. • Level 3 inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at measurement date. The fair values of the interest rate collar and warrant liabilities were estimated using inputs based on management’s judgment and conditions that existed at each reporting date. See “ Note 10 . Fair Value Measurements ” for further details. |
Capitalized Software and Website Development Costs | Capitalized Software and Website Development Costs — The Company capitalizes costs related to (i) internal-use software (ii) cloud computing arrangement (“CCA”) implementation costs, and (iii) other software-related costs (e.g., website development costs). For internal-use software, both internal and external costs incurred during the preliminary project stage are expensed as incurred, and qualifying costs incurred during the application development state are capitalized. Capitalization ceases no later than the point at which a software project is substantially completed and ready for its intended use. For CCAs, or hosting arrangements, the Company evaluates if the CCA includes a software license that will be accounted for in addition to a hosting service. The cost of the arrangement (i.e., license or service cost) of a CCA that includes a software license will be capitalized as an acquisition of an asset (similar to internal-use software) and amortized over its useful economic life, whereas the costs of a service contract are expensed as incurred. Costs related to website development are expensed as incurred during the planning stage, content development stage, and operating stage. The Company generally capitalizes costs incurred for activities during the website application and infrastructure development stage, and graphics development stage. Costs incurred for website hosting services from a third-party vendor are expensed over the period the services are received. Internal-use software costs and website development costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which is generally three years or less. Management evaluates the useful lives of these assets and tests for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets. |
Prepaid Expenses | Prepaid Expenses — At initial recognition, the Company measures prepaid assets based on cost (i.e., amount paid). In the accounting period or periods in which a good or service is used or received, the asset will be reduced by a proportionate amount and an associated asset (e.g., inventory) or expense (e.g., marketing) will be recorded. Prepaid Inventory Prepayments are required to begin production of inventory at certain of the Company’s CMOs and inventory suppliers. Vendors are tracked to determine prepayments that have been made and when the associated inventory is expected to be delivered to the Company (i.e., when the Company takes ownership of the inventory). Prepaid inventory is triggered by invoices received from CMOs (i.e., the vendor). When the Company submits purchase orders, the CMOs may request a prepayment amount (deposit) based on agreed-upon percentage in the vendor contracts to start the production process. Prepaid Marketing and Advertising The Company generally expenses the costs of advertising and marketing as costs are incurred, except for costs associated with producing advertising. While production costs (i.e., costs to develop promotions for a specific campaign associated with an identified new brand or new product) are incurred during the process of production, the Company has elected to expense certain costs when the associated advertising takes place. In the event that the advertising is not expected to occur (e.g., decision has been made to not launch a promotion) or a 12-month period elapses without the associated advertising occurring, the associated production costs will be expensed. |
Property and Equipment, Net | Property and Equipment, Net — Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. In the case of a business combination, acquired property and equipment are recognized at their fair value as of the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of respective assets. No depreciation is charged to construction in progress. The estimated useful lives of the Company’s assets are as follows: ESTIMATED USEFUL LIVES Computer hardware and software 3 years Furniture and fixtures 3 - 5 years Machinery and equipment 3 - 5 years Gondolas 3 years Leasehold improvements Lesser of useful life or term of lease Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When an asset is sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and associated accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. |
Intangible Assets, Net | Intangible Assets, Net |
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | Impairment of Long-Lived Assets |
Business Combinations | Business Combinations — When the Company acquires a business, the total purchase consideration provided is allocated to the identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired business at their estimated respective fair values. Any excess consideration of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recognized as goodwill. Significant management judgments and assumptions are required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows, useful lives and discount rates. Measurement period adjustments are reflected at the time identified, up through the conclusion of the measurement period, which is the time at which all information for determination of the values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is received, which may not exceed one year from the acquisition date. The Company may record adjustments to the fair value of these tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with a corresponding offset to goodwill. If outside of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. |
Goodwill | Goodwill —Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price and the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination. The Company reviews goodwill for impairment annually on October 1 st |
Deferred Issuance Costs | Deferred Issuance Costs —The Company capitalizes costs related to the issuance of debt instruments, as applicable. Such costs are initially recorded as a direct deduction from the applicable debt instrument and amortized over the contractual term of the related debt instrument in interest expense, net using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method, in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. |
Accounts Receivable, Net | Accounts Receivable, Net —Trade accounts receivable are stated at net realizable value. Receivables are unsecured and represent amounts billed to and currently due from customers that have yet to be collected. Payment terms are generally short-term in nature and are less than one year. In certain circumstances, the Company offers extended payment terms to customers. When the period between the transfer of control of the products and payment is greater than one year, the Company adjusts the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component. |
Revenue Recognition and Distribution | Revenue Recognition —The Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to for those goods or services. In that determination, under ASC 606 the Company follows a five-step model that includes: (1) determination of whether a contract or an agreement between two or more parties that creates legally enforceable rights and obligations exists; (2) identification of the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determination of the transaction price; (4) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognition of revenue when (or as) performance obligations are satisfied. Net revenue excludes taxes collected by us on behalf of governmental authorities. Product Sales The Company’s revenue is primarily generated from product sales to distributors, retailers, physicians and directly to consumers (“DTC”) via its e-commerce platforms. Distributors may resell products to retailers, physicians, or end consumers. To determine when to recognize revenue under ASC 606 in cases where products are sold to distributors, the Company analyzes various factors including its ability to direct products physically held by the distributors, when title and risk of loss transfers, and who ultimately manages the relationship with the end consumer. The Company does not recognize revenue until control of the products is transferred to the distributor. At contract inception, and when facts and circumstances change, the Company assesses whether it is probable that the Company will collect substantially all of the consideration it will be entitled to from a customer. If the Company determines that it is not probable that the Company will collect substantially all of the consideration from the customer, the Company recognizes revenue only when one or more of the following events occur: (i) the Company has no remaining obligations to transfer goods or services to the customer, and all, or substantially all, of the consideration promised by the customer has been received by the Company and is nonrefundable, (ii) the contract has been terminated, and the consideration received from the customer is nonrefundable, or (iii) the Company has transferred control of the goods or services to which the consideration that has been received relates, the Company has stopped transferring goods or services to the customer (if applicable) and has no obligation under the contract to transfer additional goods or services, and the consideration received from the customer is nonrefundable. The Company has determined that each of its products is distinct and represents a separate performance obligation. The transaction price is equal to the consideration the Company is entitled to – which could be either a distributor, retailer, physician, or e-commerce end consumer. When measuring revenue and determining the consideration the Company is entitled to as part of a contract with a customer, the Company takes into account the related elements of variable consideration. Product sales revenue is recognized net of provisions for estimated volume rebates and discounts, markdowns, margin adjustments, early-payment discounts and returns. The Company estimates variable consideration using the expected value method and adjusts the transaction price when control of the related product is transferred to the customer. The Company’s distributors charge fees for certain services rendered by the distributors, including packing and shipping, marketing and advertising the Company’s products, monitoring product reviews, regulatory services, providing customer service, and generating data and analytical reports on product sales. Distributor fees for services are recognized as a reduction to revenue because the services provided are typically not distinct from the distributors’ purchase of products. Typically, customers are required to pay either in advance or between 30 and 90 days from delivery or invoicing. However, in certain circumstances, the Company offers extended payment terms to customers. When the period between the transfer of control of the products and payment is greater than one year, the Company adjusts the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component. When contracts contain a significant financing component in which the Company is effectively financing the customer, a portion of the transaction price is recognized as other income. The Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Standalone selling price is the price at which the Company would sell a promised product separately to a customer. The Company typically has an observable standalone selling price for each of its products. The Company has different contracted shipping terms with different customers that dictate the timing of payment, passage of legal title, transfer of physical possession, and assumption of the risks and rewards occur. For distributors, other than the Physician Channel Provider, and retailers, depending on the contract, the Company considers transfer of control to have occurred either once the delivery of the product has occurred or once the product has been picked up from the Company’s designated warehouse/distribution center by the customer’s shipping agent, unless the Company is responsible for shipping the goods, in which case transfer of control passes upon delivery to the customer. For DTC sales and sales to physicians through the Physician Channel Provider, control transfers upon shipment to the end consumer or physician. Promotional Products In situations where promotional products, such as samples and testers, are provided by the Company to its customers at the same time as a related saleable product, the cost of these promotional products are recognized as cost of sales at the same time as the revenue for the related product is recognized. Royalties The Company generates royalty revenue from products sold under the Obagi brand name in Japan and Hong Kong through license agreements with local operators. Under these agreements, the Company provides the local operators with a license of intellectual property and receives a royalty based upon a percentage of net sales of Obagi-branded products sold in Japan and Hong Kong. Because the license is the predominant item to which the sales-based royalty relates, the Company recognizes revenue for the sales-based royalty when the local operators make sales of the products. Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer The Company recognizes the incremental costs of obtaining a customer contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the assets that the Company otherwise would have recognized is one year or less. The incremental costs to obtain contracts primarily relate to sales commission and sales-based bonuses. Total capitalizable costs to obtain a contract were immaterial during the periods presented. Other Distribution |
Cost of Goods Sold | Cost of Goods Sold —Cost of goods sold consists of inventory and promotional product costs, including when inventory and promotional products are sold or written down, and product-related intangible asset amortization and depreciation expense. |
Research and Development | Research and Development —R&D costs are expensed as incurred. Costs associated with R&D activities may include materials, equity and facility costs, personnel costs, contracted services (i.e., the costs of services performed by third parties in connection with the Company’s R&D activities), and direct costs (e.g., appropriate allocations for general and administrative costs). Substantially all R&D expenses are related to new product development and design improvements or increased functionality in current products. The Company may capitalize acquired assets associated with R&D activities (e.g., materials, equipment) if both of the following criteria are met: (i) the Company reasonably expects that the acquired assets will be used in an alternative manner and anticipates an economic benefit from the alternative future use and (ii) the use of the acquired asset is not contingent on the further development of the asset after acquisition date (i.e., the asset can be used in an alternative manner in the condition in which it existed at the acquisition date). |
Advertising | Advertising |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation —The Company measures the cost of share-based awards granted to eligible employees, directors, and consultants based on the grant-date fair value of the awards. Replacement Options On the Closing Date, in connection with the Business Combination, the Company assumed Obagi and Milk’s legacy incentive award plans and outstanding unvested options granted under those plans (“Replacement Options”). Because the options were deemed in the money on the replacement date, a Hull-White lattice pricing model was used to estimate their fair value to capture the optimal timing of exercise. This pricing model requires the use of assumptions including the volatility of the underlying stock, the fair value of the stock, dividend yield, risk-free rate, and exercise multiple. Founder Awards The Company estimated the fair value and derived service period of the stock options issued to founders (“Founder Awards”) in August 2022 based on the Monte Carlo simulation, as they were deemed out of the money on the grant date. The Monte Carlo simulation model requires the use of assumptions including the option’s expected term, the volatility of the underlying stock, dividend yield rate, risk-free rate, and expected exercise behavior. For expected exercise behavior, the Company assumes that the options are exercised after 50% of the period between the later of the vest date and exercise price achievement date and the end of the contractual term. Restricted Stock The fair value of restricted stock is equal to the price of the Company’s ordinary shares on the grant date. The Company has elected to recognize the effect of forfeitures in the period in which they occur. Share-based awards are classified as equity, unless the underlying shares are classified as liabilities or the Company is required to settle the awards by transferring cash or other assets. The Company recognizes compensation expense for awards with service or performance conditions using the straight-line method over the requisite service period, which is generally the award’s vesting period. Compensation expense for employee stock-based awards whose vesting is subject to the fulfillment of both a service condition and the occurrence of a performance condition is recognized on a graded-vesting basis at the time the achievement of the performance condition becomes probable. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes —The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability approach. Under this approach, deferred taxes represent the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. The provision for income taxes represents income taxes paid or payable for the current period plus the change in deferred taxes during the period. Deferred taxes result from differences between the financial and tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities and are adjusted for changes in tax rates and tax laws when changes are enacted. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. The assessment of whether a valuation allowance is required often requires significant judgment including the long-range forecasting of future taxable income and the evaluation of planning initiatives. Adjustments to the deferred tax valuation allowances are made to earnings in the period when such assessments are made. A valuation allowance of $19.8 million was recorded as of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) and $7.9 million was recorded as of December 31, 2022 (Successor Period). The Company accounts for a tax benefit from an uncertain position in the consolidated financial statements only if it is more likely than not that the position is sustainable, based solely on its technical merits and consideration of the relevant taxing authority’s widely understood administrative practices and precedents. If the recognition threshold for the tax position is met, the Company records only the portion of the tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely to be realized. As of December 31, 2023 (Successor Period) and December 31, 2022 (Successor Period), the Company had no uncertain positions in the consolidated financial statements. |
Net Income (Loss) Per Share | Net Income (Loss) Per Share |
Noncontrolling Interests | Noncontrolling Interests —Noncontrolling interests represent the portion of Waldencast Partners LP that the Company controls and consolidates but does not own. The Company recognizes each noncontrolling holder’s respective share of the estimated fair value of the net assets at the date of formation or acquisition. Noncontrolling interests are subsequently adjusted for the noncontrolling holder’s share of additional contributions, distributions and their share of the net earnings or losses of each respective consolidated entity. The Company allocates net income or loss to noncontrolling interests based on the weighted average ownership interest during the period. The net income (loss) that is not attributable to the Company is reflected in net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company does not recognize a gain or loss on transactions with a consolidated entity in which it does not own 100% of the equity, but the Company reflects the difference in cash received or paid from the noncontrolling interests carrying amount as additional paid-in-capital. |
Segments | Segments —An operating segment is defined as a component of an enterprise that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses and about which separate financial information is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources. Similar operating segments can be aggregated into a single operating segment if the businesses are similar. Management has determined that, following the Business Combination, the Successor has two operating and reportable segments: Obagi Skincare and Milk Makeup, reflecting the manner in which the CODM operates the Company. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. The Predecessor had one operating and reportable segment. |
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements and Recently Issued Accounting Standards, Not Yet Adopted | Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Statements—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . This ASU adds an impairment model known as current expected credit loss that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. It recognizes an allowance as an estimate of expected credit losses, which may result in more timely recognition of such losses. In 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), which defers the effective date for entities in the “all other” category and public not-for-profit entities that have not yet issued their financial statements reflecting the adoption of credit losses. The amendments in this ASU were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption was permitted. This guidance was effective for the Company for the annual period beginning on January 1, 2023, and interim periods within the annual period beginning on January 1, 2023, with earlier adoption permitted. The adoption of this new standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Standards, Not Yet Adopted In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers . The guidance requires an acquirer to, at the date of acquisition, recognize and measure the acquired contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in the same manner that they were recognized and measured in the acquiree’s financial statements before the acquisition. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 for an EGC company, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of this ASU on its future consolidated financial statements, but does not expect it to have a material impact. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures . The guidance expands public entities’ segment disclosures by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly reviewed by the CODM and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosures of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets. The guidance also allows, in addition to the measure that is most consistent with U.S. GAAP, the disclosure of additional measures of segment profit or loss that are used by the CODM in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. This guidance is effective for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this update should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of this ASU on its future consolidated financial statements but does not expect it to have a material impact. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which provides qualitative and quantitative updates to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures, among others, in order to enhance the transparency of income tax disclosures, including consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and disaggregation by jurisdiction of income taxes paid. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively however, retrospective application is also permitted. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of this ASU on its future consolidated financial statements. |

Schedule of Valuation Assumptions, Stock Options | The fair value of stock option awards was determined on the grant date using the Monte Carlo simulation model for Founder Awards and the Hull-White lattice pricing model was used for replacement awards based on the following weighted-average assumptions: Period from July 28, 2022 to December 31, 2022 Successor Founder Awards Replacement Awards Risk-free interest rate (1) 2.87% - 2.92% 2.79% - 2.80% Expected term (years) (2) 4.7 - 9.9 N/A Exercise multiple (3) N/A 2.30 Expected stock price volatility (4) 39.77% - 44.76% 50.00 % Dividend yield (5) N/A N/A (1) The risk-free rate is based on U.S. Treasury securities with maturities equivalent to the expected term. (2) The expected term for founder awards is based on the assumption that the options are exercised after 50% of the period between the later of the vest date and exercise price achievement date and the end of the contractual term. (3) The exercise multiple is selected from the commonly used exercise multiple range of 2.0x to 2.5x assuming on average the options holders would exercise the options when the ratio of underlying stock price to the exercise price reaches 2.3x. (4) For founder awards, the expected stock price volatility is the median historical volatility of Waldencast’s volatility peer group with a look-back period equal to the contractual term using daily stock prices; for replacement awards, the expected stock price volatility is estimated by adjusting the observed equity volatility for leverage. (5) Waldencast has not paid any dividends historically and does not plan to declare dividends in the foreseeable future and therefore assumed a dividend yield of zero. The fair value of stock option awards was determined on the grant date using the Black-Scholes valuation model based on the following weighted-average assumptions: Period from January 1 Year ended December 31, 2021 Predecessor Risk-free interest rate (1) — 0.68 % Expected term (years) (2) — 6.2 Expected stock price volatility (3) — 43.00 % Dividend yield (4) — N/A Common stock per share value — $ 38.68 (1) The risk-free rate is based on U.S. Treasury securities with maturities equivalent to the expected term. (2) The expected term is the estimated length of time the grants are expected to be outstanding before it is exercised or terminated. This number is calculated as the midpoint between the requisite service period and the contractual term of the award, as the Company does not have any historical data that would provide a reasonable basis to estimate the expected term for the option. (3) The expected price volatility is based on the average of the historical volatility of comparable public companies over a period consistent with the expected term. (4) The Predecessor historically made distributions to its shareholder but the Company does not plan to declare dividends in the foreseeable future and therefore assumed a dividend yield of zero. |
