Herbalife Nutrition Exceeds Second Quarter 2022 Expectations and Reaffirms Full Year 2022 Topline Guidance

Herbalife Nutrition Ltd. (NYSE: HLF) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20220801005907/en/

“We are pleased to announce our Q2 performance exceeded our guidance on both top and bottom lines, and we continue to project a return to net sales growth in the fourth quarter,” said John Agwunobi, Chairman and CEO of Herbalife Nutrition.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Second quarter 2022 results exceeded the high-end of our guidance for Net Sales, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS1 2
  • Second quarter 2022 net sales of $1.4 billion, a 10.3% decrease compared to the second quarter 2021. On a constant currency basis3, net sales declined 5.9% compared to the prior year period.
  • Second quarter 2022 reported diluted EPS of $0.88 and adjusted1 diluted EPS of $0.96, compared to second quarter 2021 reported and adjusted1 4 diluted EPS of $1.31 and $1.55, respectively.
  • Second quarter 2022 reported net income of $86.5 million and adjusted1 EBITDA of $195.4 million.
  • During the second quarter, the Company repurchased approximately 1.1 million shares for a total purchase price of $30.2 million.
  • Reaffirming full year 2022 guidance for net sales and adjusted2 EBITDA. Lowering adjusted2 diluted full year 2022 EPS guidance, primarily due to unfavorable currency movement.

1 Adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted EBITDA 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.

2 Adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures. See the “Outlook” discussion below and the related footnotes and Schedule A – “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for additional information regarding adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted EBITDA guidance.

3 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.

4 Prior year adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted EBITDA were restated to conform to current year presentation to exclude expenses related to the transformation program.

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

Herbalife Nutrition reported net sales of $1.4 billion for the second quarter of 2022, a decrease of 10.3% compared to the prior year. Volume points for the quarter declined 9.1% compared to the prior year. Both measures were above the Company‘s Q2 guidance range.

Reported EPS for the second quarter was $0.88 and adjusted1 earnings per diluted share was $0.96, also exceeding the high-end of the Company‘s guidance range of $0.60 to $0.80. Net income during the quarter was $86.5 million, resulting in adjusted1 EBITDA of $195.4 million, well above the Company’s guidance range of $135 to $155 million.

As Herbalife Nutrition’s underlying business trends stabilized during the remainder of the 2nd quarter compared to April levels, the Company is reaffirming its outlook for the year on net sales and adjusted2 EBITDA, but lowering its full year outlook for adjusted2 diluted EPS, primarily due to unfavorable currency movement. For the full year, the Company is reaffirming net sales guidance range of down 10.0% to down 4.0%, with an expected return to year-over-year net sales growth in the fourth quarter. The Company is reaffirming full year adjusted2 EBITDA guidance range of $680 million to $740 million. The Company is lowering full year adjusted2 EPS guidance to be in the range of $3.25 to $3.75.

The Company has observed that in-person events are energizing those independent distributors who chose to attend. During the month of July, the Company hosted two large sales events in the U.S. and India, with combined in-person attendance of over 40,000. The Company believes in-person events are one of the best opportunities to educate, train and motivate our distributors, particularly those that are new to the business.

As mentioned in our first quarter release, the Company took incremental pricing actions in most markets in late Q2, on top of previously implemented price increases during the first quarter to offset significant increases in input and freight costs. We believe the top line outperformance in June benefited from increased sales ahead of the pricing actions in June that would have otherwise been realized in July. As a result, the initiation of Q3 guidance includes this impact of pull forward of net sales into Q2.

The Company continues to innovate with local product development, which resulted in approximately 60 new SKU launches during the second quarter, and over 20 so far during the third quarter. The Company believes ongoing investments in its business and products will help drive performance and ultimately create meaningful shareholder value.

The Company announced new leadership promotions to ensure the Company is best supporting its independent distributors and unleashing the potential and power of the regional teams. John DeSimone will become Executive Vice Chair of the Company. Mr. DeSimone’s vast experience and unmatched knowledge of the Company will enable him to work on transformative growth initiatives that are central to the Company’s future.

Additionally, the Company has created three new regional presidents: Stephen Conchie will be Regional President of APAC and China, Edi Hienrich will be Regional President of EMEA and India, and Frank Lamberti will be Regional President of the Americas. These individuals have proven to be effective leaders and their new titles reflect the importance of their roles.

“Net sales growth remains our top priority, so we are encouraged to see that compared to April, our key performance indicators have stabilized. We are pleased to see our cost control measures are beginning to generate sequential margin improvement. With significant pricing actions implemented in June, the Company will closely monitor any demand elasticity impact as well as the effect of the broader macroeconomic conditions on the performance of the business. Additionally, I am inspired by the leadership and enthusiasm I have witnessed from our distributors at the in-person events I attended,” said CEO John Agwunobi.

Currency Fluctuation in Guidance

  • Guidance is based on the average daily exchange rates for the first two weeks of July 2022.
  • For the third quarter 2022, net sales guidance includes a projected currency headwind of approximately 550bps, adjusted(a)(b) diluted EPS guidance includes a projected currency headwind of approximately $0.19 per diluted share, and adjusted(a)(b) EBITDA guidance includes a projected currency headwind of approximately $24 million, all versus the third quarter of 2021.
  • For the full year 2022, net sales guidance includes a projected currency headwind of approximately 440bps, adjusted(a)(b) diluted EPS guidance includes a projected currency headwind of approximately $0.55 per diluted share, and adjusted(a)(b) EBITDA guidance includes a projected currency headwind of approximately $72 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 third quarter and full year net sales, diluted EPS, and adjusted EBITDA 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 during the fourth quarter.
  • During the third quarter, the Company will reallocate $50 million to strategically pay down a portion of its outstanding debt and is no longer guiding for any share repurchases to be completed during the quarter. Share repurchases may still be executed opportunistically during the third 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. Prior year adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted EBITDA were restated to conform to current year presentation to exclude expenses related to the transformation program.

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.
