MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY
Herbalife Nutrition reported net sales of $1.3 billion for the first quarter of 2022, a decrease of 11% compared to the prior year. Volume points for the quarter declined 7.0% compared to the prior year, which was 50 basis points below the midpoint of the Company‘s Q1 guidance range of down 9.5% to down 3.5%. The bridge between volume point and net sales guidance and results was driven by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates during the quarter, as well as a shift in the geographic mix of revenue, compared to company projections.
Reported EPS for the first quarter was $0.96 and adjusted1 earnings per diluted share was $0.99, at the high-end of the Company‘s guidance range of $0.80 to $1.00. Net income during the quarter was $98.2 million, resulting in adjusted1 EBITDA of $185.6 million, just above the Company’s guidance range of $165 to $185 million.
Looking to the future, the Company is updating its outlook for the year. For the full year, the Company is lowering net sales guidance to be in the range of down 10.0% to down 4.0%. Despite this reduction, the Company anticipates net sales will be flat in the back half of 2022, and will return to year-over-year net sales growth in the fourth quarter.
The Company has identified that, as a group, the behavior of distributors that joined the business during the pandemic has departed from historical trends and is below the Company’s expectations. This slowdown is primarily isolated to the collective performance of that group, while distributors that joined the business pre-pandemic, and the entirety of the Company’s preferred customer base continue to order at historical levels.
The Company believes that the return of in-person events could act as a catalyst. Most of the Company‘s distributors that joined the business during the pandemic have never been to an in-person event, and there is no substitute for gathering in person for learning, collaborating and motivating.
“The interactive discussions, the face-to-face team building and the social elements that are characteristic of our in-person events are not only an important source of training, motivation, and inspiration for our distributors, but also strengthen the social fabric that our business thrives on,“ said Chairman and CEO John Agwunobi.
In addition to the return of in-person sales events, the Company has implemented numerous sales initiatives at a local level that are all aimed at driving increased engagement in the business.
The Company is also taking meaningful steps to improve margins, through both pricing actions and cost controls. The Company implemented price increases in the majority of markets in the first quarter, and will take incremental pricing actions during the second quarter in response to the dramatic increase in input and freight costs. Additionally, the Company is implementing short-term and long-term cost control measures.
These actions are in addition to the previously announced transformation program to optimize global processes for future growth, which is also expected to improve margins through productivity and efficiency enhancements within the business. As previously disclosed, the Company expects the first phase of the program to result in annual incremental savings in the range of $10 million to $15 million, with some savings beginning in 2022. The Company is also looking to accelerate the second phase of the program to begin in late 2022 with expected ongoing annualized savings in the same magnitude as phase one.
“While organic sales growth remains our top priority, we are working on multiple fronts to improve our margin profile that supports our strong operating model, which has delivered powerful cash flow over the years,” said CFO Alex Amezquita.

Currency Fluctuation in Guidance
- Guidance is based on the average daily exchange rates for the first two weeks of April 2022.
- For the second quarter 2022, net sales guidance includes a projected currency headwind of approximately 270bps, adjusted(a)(b) diluted EPS guidance includes a projected currency headwind of approximately $0.07 per diluted share, and adjusted(a)(b) EBITDA guidance includes a projected currency headwind of approximately $9 million, all versus the second quarter 2021.
- For the full year 2022, net sales guidance includes a projected currency headwind of approximately 230bps, adjusted(a)(b) diluted EPS guidance includes a projected currency headwind of approximately $0.23 per diluted share, and adjusted(a)(b) EBITDA guidance includes a projected currency headwind of approximately $29 million, all versus the full year 2021.
- Net sales, adjusted(a)(b) diluted EPS, and adjusted(a)(b) EBITDA represent projections translated into US dollars at currency rates equal to the average rates used to translate 2021 second quarter and full year net sales and diluted EPS and adjusted for items such as hedging gains/losses to be directly comparable to 2021 values. See our Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and Schedule A – “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a discussion of why we believe adjusting for the effects of foreign exchange is useful.
Share Repurchase in Guidance
- With respect to guidance, the Company has assumed $50 million in share repurchases will be completed per quarter.
(a) Excludes the following items that cannot be accurately predicted: any future potential ongoing tax effects from the exercise or vesting of equity awards that could impact the Company's tax rate due to the stock compensation accounting standard, as well as any future potential dilution from the Company’s convertible notes due in 2024.
(b) Adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted EBITDA guidance are non-GAAP measures and exclude potential charges or gains that may be recorded during the applicable period, such as, among other things, loss contingencies, gain/loss on debt extinguishments and refinancing, tax charges relating to tax law changes, net expenses related to the COVID-19 pandemic, and other unanticipated charges and events. The Company does not provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP Adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income, the comparable GAAP measure, because the impact and timing of these potential charges and gains cannot be determined without unreasonable efforts due to their inherent historical variability, complexity, and unpredictability. These items, which are necessary for a presentation of the reconciliation to GAAP, could have a potentially significant impact on the Company’s GAAP results.

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 and guidance 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 non-cash interest expense and amortization associated with the Company’s convertible notes, expenses related to regulatory inquiries and legal accruals, debt issuance costs and losses on extinguishment of debt, expenses related to COVID-19 pandemic, non-income tax items, and expenses related to transformation program, as further detailed in the reconciliations below. 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. The Company does not provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income, the comparable GAAP measure, because the impact and timing of the potential charges and gains cannot be determined without unreasonable efforts due to the inherent historical variability, complexity, and unpredictability. These items, which are necessary for a presentation of a reconciliation to GAAP, could have a potentially significant impact on the Company’s GAAP results.
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 U.S. GAAP financial measure. 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 measures 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.
