Herbalife Nutrition Reports Results with Net Sales Growth in Four of our Six Regions

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Herbalife Nutrition Ltd. (NYSE: HLF) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2019:

“Our performance demonstrates the strength of our geographic diversity as this was the Company’s second largest quarter in history, despite the challenges in China,” said Michael O. Johnson, Chairman and CEO of Herbalife Nutrition

QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS

• Reported net sales of $1.2 billion decreased 3.5% compared to the second quarter 2018. Excluding China, net sales increased 5.4% compared to the second quarter 2018 with growth in eight of our top ten countries.
• Volume points of 1.5 billion were flat compared to the prior year period, with three of six regions setting quarterly volume point records. Excluding China, volume points increased 5.6% compared to the prior year period.¹
• Second quarter reported diluted EPS of $0.54 and adjusted² earnings of $0.70 per adjusted³ diluted share, both of which were negatively impacted by expenses of approximately $4.0 million or $0.02 per diluted share and adjusted³ diluted share, respectively, related to the China Growth and Impact Investment Program.
• The Company is revising full year 2019 volume point guidance to a range of 0.5% - 5.0% growth, net sales guidance to a range of (1.7%) – 2.8%, as well as reported and adjusted^1,3 diluted EPS guidance to a range of $2.11 - $2.51 and $2.40 – $2.80, respectively.

^{________________________________________________________}

¹ Excluding adjustments to volume point values in 2018, the year over year change would have been a decrease of 0.2% and an increase of 5.2% excluding China. See Regional Volume Point Metrics below.

² Adjusted diluted EPS is a non-GAAP measure and excludes the impact of: non-cash interest expense and amortization of non-cash issuance costs associated with the Company’s convertible notes, China grant income, impacts relating to contingent value rights revaluation, income related to finalization of insurance recoveries, impact of adjusted shares outstanding and expenses related to regulatory inquiries and legal accrual. See Schedule A – “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a detailed reconciliation of adjusted net income to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP and a reconciliation of adjusted diluted EPS to diluted EPS calculated in accordance with GAAP and a discussion of why we believe these non-GAAP measures are useful.

³ See Schedule A - “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of adjusted diluted share count to reported diluted share count and a discussion of why the share count has been adjusted for purposes of calculating adjusted diluted EPS for the second quarter of 2019, year to date periods of 2018 and 2019, and third quarter and full year 2019 guidance.

^(b) Excludes any future potential Venezuela currency devaluations and associated pricing and inflationary consequences.

^(c) Excludes the following items that cannot be accurately predicted: any future potential ongoing tax effects from the exercise of equity awards that could impact the Company's tax rate due to the stock compensation accounting standard, any future contingent value rights revaluation, benefits from future potential China grant income, any future potential dilution from the Company’s convertible notes due in 2019 and 2024, as well as any impact of the China Growth and Impact Investment Program.

Supplemental Information

SCHEDULE A: RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

(Unaudited and unreviewed), (All tables provide Dollars in millions, except per Share Data)

In addition to its reported results and guidance calculated in accordance with GAAP, the Company has included in this release adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS, performance measures that the Securities and Exchange Commission defines as “non-GAAP financial measures.” Management believes that such non-GAAP financial measures, when read in conjunction with the Company’s reported or forecasted results, in each case calculated in accordance with GAAP, can provide useful supplemental information for investors because they facilitate a period to period comparative assessment of the Company’s operating performance relative to its performance based on reported or forecasted results under GAAP, while isolating the effects of some items that vary from period to period without any correlation to core operating performance and eliminate certain charges that management believes do not reflect the Company’s operations and underlying operational performance. The Company’s definition of adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies because other companies may not calculate them in the same manner as the Company does and should not be viewed in isolation from nor as alternatives to net income or diluted EPS calculated in accordance with GAAP.

The impact of foreign currency fluctuations in Venezuela and the price increases the Company implements as a result of the highly inflationary economy in that market can each, when considered in isolation, have a disproportionately large impact to the Company’s consolidated results despite the offsetting nature of these drivers and that net sales in Venezuela, which represent less than 1% of the Company’s consolidated net sales, are not material to our consolidated results. Therefore, in certain instances, the Company believes it is helpful to provide additional information with respect to these factors as reported and excluding the impact of Venezuela to illustrate the disproportionate nature of Venezuela’s individual pricing and foreign exchange impact to the Company’s consolidated results. However, excluding the impact of Venezuela from these measures is not in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to the presentation and discussion thereof calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The following is a reconciliation of net income, presented and reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, to net income adjusted for certain items:

The following table is a reconciliation of diluted shares outstanding, as presented and reported in accordance with GAAP, to adjusted diluted shares outstanding, adjusted to include the impact of outstanding capped call transactions. The Company's outstanding capped call transactions are anti-dilutive and not included in GAAP earnings per share but are expected to mitigate the dilutive effect of the Company's convertible notes due 2019, if the trading price of the Company's stock exceeds the conversion price, up to a certain level. Therefore, the Company has adjusted the diluted shares outstanding to include the impact of the capped calls, based on the average share price for the period that the capped calls are anti-dilutive.

⁽¹⁾ Based on interim income tax reporting rules, these expenses are not considered discrete items. As a result, the Company's full year effective tax rate is impacted by these items. When applying the full year effective tax rate to year-to-date income, the Company's year-to-date tax provision recorded with respect to these non-GAAP adjustments is different from the forecasted full-year tax provision impact of these items. As a consequence, adjustments to the year-to-date and quarterly tax impacts will be recorded as the adjusted full year effective tax rate is applied to income in subsequent periods. Additionally, adjustments to items unrelated to these non-GAAP adjustments may have an effect on the income tax impact of these non-GAAP adjustments in subsequent periods. The Company plans to update the income tax impact of these items in subsequent interim reporting periods.
