We are and, from time to time, we may become, involved in legal proceedings or be subject to claims arising in the ordinary course of our business. Other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes from the information previously reported under Part I, Item 3 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
On May 22, 2023, Jessica Lyons, an individual, and a group of other plaintiffs filed a class action complaint with the Los Angeles County Superior Court alleging that the Company misclassified its Partners as contractors rather than as employees and committed other violations of the California Labor Code. The Company understands that the plaintiffs in this matter intend on filing additional claims under the Private Attorney General Act of 2004 ("PAGA"). The Company and certain executive officers are listed as defendants in the complaint. The plaintiffs are seeking monetary damages. The Company filed a motion to compel arbitration in the case. The firm representing Ms. Lyons has also filed 28 arbitration actions in Los Angeles County in anticipation that the Company's motion to compel arbitration will be upheld. We have continued to deny the allegations in the complaint and have vigorously defended ourselves in this action. As of October 7, 2025, the parties reached a settlement that resulted in a dismissal of all claims, including all 28 filed arbitrations. A motion to dismiss the entire class action and PAGA complaint was filed on December 29, 2025, which was granted on January 12, 2026, and has now been formally dismissed in its entirety.
On June 14, 2024, Bryan Reilly on behalf of himself and similarly situated current and former stockholders of Forest Road Acquisition Corp., which later became the Beachbody Company, Inc. (“Forest Road”), filed a verified class action complaint (the “Reilly Action”) in the Delaware Chancery Court against the former directors and officers of Forest Road, as well as Forest Road Acquisition Sponsor LLC, Forest Road Company LLC, Zach Tarica, and Jeremy Tarica (together the “Forest Road Sponsor Defendants”) alleging claims for breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the merger among Forest Road, The Beachbody Company, Inc., and Myx in 2021 (the “Merger”). The lawsuit also brought claims against the Company, Kevin Meyer, and The Raine Group LLC (“Raine”) alleging aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty, and against the former Forest Road directors and officers, the Forest Road Sponsor Defendants, Raine, and Meyer for unjust enrichment. We also have certain indemnification obligations as to some or all of the former Forest Road directors and Raine as to certain claims.
The Reilly Action generally alleges that the proxy that Forest Road issued prior to the Merger contained numerous material misstatements and omissions that impaired the Forest Road stockholders’ ability to make an informed decision regarding whether to redeem their stock in connection with the Merger. The plaintiff also asserts that the Merger was a conflicted transaction because the Forest Road Sponsor Defendants and the former Forest Road directors were incentivized to close the Merger even if it was a value-decreasing transaction for Forest Road’s public stockholders. As to the Company, Meyer, and Raine, the complaint alleges that these defendants aided and abetted the Forest Road defendants’ disclosure violations. On December 5, 2024, the plaintiffs in the Reilly Action dismissed without prejudice the aiding and abetting claims against the Company and Raine. Consequently, the Company is not currently a party to the litigation but its indemnification obligation as to certain of the remaining defendant directors remains.
On July 1, 2025, the Defendants in the Reilly Action filed a motion to dismiss with the Delaware Chancery Court. On September 30, 2025, this motion to dismiss was granted, dismissing the action with prejudice and giving the Plaintiffs thirty days to file an appeal. On October 15, 2025, Plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal for the Reilly Action. The appeal was heard on April 22, 2026, and on May 7, 2026, the Supreme Court of the State of Delaware issued its order, affirming the lower court’s decision and dismissing the case.
On October 14, 2024, the firm Milberg Coleman Bryson Phillips Grossman ("Milberg") filed 10 arbitration demands alleging that the Company violated the Video Privacy Protection Act. The arbitration demands state that Milberg currently represents approximately 6,239 additional subscribers of BODi and intends to file similar demands for each person. The plaintiffs are seeking monetary damages as well as injunctive and equitable relief. As of September 11, 2025, the parties reached a settlement that resulted in a release of all threatened claims, including on behalf of all alleged affected subscribers.
