________________
1 Growth/decline in net sales excluding the effects of foreign exchange is based on “net sales in local currency,” a non-GAAP financial measure. See Schedule A – “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a discussion of why we believe adjusting for the effects of foreign exchange is useful.
2 Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted diluted EPS are non-GAAP measures. See Schedule A – “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a detailed reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, and a discussion of why we believe these non-GAAP measures are useful.

Management Commentary

Herbalife reported second quarter 2023 net sales of $1.3 billion, down 5.7% year-over-year, marking the second consecutive quarter of improved year-over-year net sales trends. On a constant currency basis1, net sales declined 4.2% year-over-year.

Second quarter gross profit margin improved to 77.0% from 76.2% in first quarter 2023. On a year-over-year basis, gross margin benefited by approximately 300 basis points of pricing, while input cost inflation and foreign currency remained a headwind of approximately 180 basis points and 90 basis points, respectively. Second quarter net income was $59.9 million. Adjusted EBITDA2 of $169.6 million includes approximately $17 million of foreign currency headwinds year-over-year, with adjusted EBITDA margin of 12.9%. Diluted EPS was $0.60, with adjusted diluted EPS2 of $0.74, which includes a $0.12 year-over-year foreign currency headwind.

During the second quarter, approximately 75,000 distributors from around the world attended Extravaganza training events in Singapore, China, Peru and India. Distributor engagement remains strong with record attendance levels in India. The Extravaganzas marked the return of in person events in these regions for the first time since 2019, bringing renewed energy to attending distributors.

At the end of July, the Company held its North America Extravaganza in San Antonio, Texas, where it launched for the U.S. market its first-ever vegan product line, Herbalife V. The line includes five plant-based products, all of which are third-party certified Vegan, Organic, Kosher, and non-GMO Project Verified.

The development of Herbalife One, the Company’s new, fully integrated, modernized digital technology platform, continues to progress and remains on track. The platform is expected to streamline the Company’s business, accelerate data utilization, reduce costs and simplify transactions for its distributors and their customers. The Company will begin launching its new modernized website in late third quarter 2023, starting with Singapore, where it will test, refine and optimize the content and functionality as necessary prior to expanding to approximately 40 additional markets that represent approximately 80% of the Company’s sales by the end of the year. In fourth quarter 2023, the Company plans to launch its new distributor e-commerce platform in the UK and Spain, with the majority of the remaining markets expected to launch in 2024. Total planned investments for Herbalife One is approximately $400 million through 2025.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, capital expenditures, including the digital technology platform, were approximately $69 million. We expect to incur total capital expenditures of approximately $150 million to $200 million for the full year of 2023.

This is a pivotal time for Herbalife. Our trends are improving, we are delivering on our product innovation commitments and our distributors are more energized and engaged in our business than I’ve ever seen,” said Chairman and CEO, Michael Johnson. “We expect this high-level of engagement and strong momentum to continue, driving our return to growth by the end of 2023.”

The Company continues to make progress implementing its Transformation Program, which was initiated in 2021 to strategically optimize global business processes. During the quarter, the Company recognized pre-tax expenses of approximately $10 million in SG&A related to the program, which are excluded from the adjusted results. Based on the Company’s actions to date, it now expects to deliver total program run rate savings of at least $90 million (up from more than $70 million) in 2024 and beyond, with more than $45 million of these savings anticipated to be realized in 2023 (up from approximately $35 million). The Company expects to incur total program pre-tax expenses of at least $75 million (up from at least $60M).

The second quarter marks our second consecutive quarter of improved year-over-year net sales trends,” said Chief Financial Officer, Alex Amezquita. “Our Transformation Program has exceeded our initial expectations and the higher cost savings are positioning us to improve future profitability.”

In a separate announcement today, the Company announced Stephan Paulo Gratziani, an independent Herbalife distributor for over 32 years and a member of the Company’s Founder’s Circle, has been appointed Chief Strategy Officer effective August 4, 2023. Mr. Gratziani will report to Michael Johnson.

Additionally, John DeSimone will transition from his position as Chief Strategic Officer to Special Advisor to the Company.

Supplemental Information

SCHEDULE A: RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

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

Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA

In addition to its reported results calculated in accordance with GAAP, the Company has included in this release adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted EBITDA, performance measures that the Securities and Exchange Commission defines as “non-GAAP financial measures.” Adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted EBITDA exclude the impact of certain unusual or non-recurring items such as net expenses related to COVID-19 pandemic, expenses related to Transformation Program, expenses related to digital technology program and charges related to the Russia-Ukraine conflict, as further detailed in the reconciliations below. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales.

Management believes that such non-GAAP financial measures, when read in conjunction with the Company’s reported results, 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 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 and calculation as set forth in the tables below of adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted EBITDA 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.

Currency Fluctuation

Our international operations have provided and will continue to provide a significant portion of our total net sales. As a result, total net sales will continue to be affected by fluctuations in the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies. In order to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of foreign currency fluctuations, in addition to comparing the percent change in net sales from one period to another in U.S. dollars, we also compare the percent change in net sales from one period to another period using “net sales in local currency.” Net sales in local currency is not a measure presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Net sales in local currency removes from net sales in U.S. dollars the impact of changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the local currencies of our foreign subsidiaries, by translating the current period net sales into U.S. dollars using the same foreign currency exchange rates that were used to translate the net sales for the previous comparable period. We believe presenting net sales in local currency is useful to investors because it allows a meaningful comparison of net sales of our foreign operations from period to period. However, net sales in local currency should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net sales in U.S. dollar measures that reflect current period exchange rates, or to other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The following is a reconciliation of net income to adjusted net income:
