Management Commentary
Herbalife reported third quarter 2024 net sales of $1.2 billion,
down 3.2% year-over-year, including 290 basis points of foreign
currency headwinds. On a constant currency basis2, net sales
decreased 0.3% year-over-year.
Third quarter gross profit margin improved to 78.3% compared to
76.3% in the third quarter of 2023. On a year-over-year basis,
gross profit margin primarily benefited from approximately 110
basis points of pricing and approximately 110 basis points of
favorable input costs, mainly related to manufacturing efficiencies
and lower raw material costs, partially offset by approximately 30
basis points of unfavorable sales mix.
Net income was $47.4 million, with net income margin of 3.8% and
adjusted net income1 of $58.0 million. Adjusted EBITDA1 of $166.5
million includes approximately $14 million of foreign currency
headwinds year-over-year, with adjusted EBITDA1 margin of 13.4%, up
70 basis points year-over-year. Diluted EPS was $0.46, with
adjusted diluted EPS1 of $0.57, which includes a $0.10
year-over-year foreign currency headwind.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $99.5 million and
$215.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2024, respectively. Capital expenditures were approximately $27
million and $96 million for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2024, respectively, and capitalized SaaS
implementation costs were approximately $3 million and $13 million,
respectively. The Company expects to incur total capital
expenditures of approximately $120 million to $140 million (reduced
from $120 million to $150 million) and total capitalized SaaS
implementation costs of approximately $20 million (reduced from
approximately $20 million to $25 million) for the full year of
2024.
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company initiated a
Restructuring Program designed to bring leadership closer to its
markets, streamline the employee structure and accelerate
productivity. Substantially all actions related to the program were
completed as of June 30, with the remainder to be completed by the
end of 2024. The Restructuring Program is expected to deliver
annual savings of at least $80 million beginning in 2025, with at
least $50 million expected to be achieved in 2024. Based on actions
through September 30, at least $20 million and at least $30 million
of savings were realized during the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2024, respectively. The Company expects to incur
total program pre-tax expenses of approximately $70 million related
to the program in 2024, which are primarily related to severance
costs and will be excluded from adjusted results. For the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2024, approximately $3 million and
$68 million, respectively, of pre-tax expenses were recognized in
SG&A related to the restructuring.
In July, the Company completed the sale and a sixteen-month
leaseback transaction of its office building in Torrance,
California. The short-term lease will provide adequate time to
relocate employees, as well as research and development and quality
laboratories to other office locations in Southern California. The
net proceeds from the sale transaction were approximately $38
million. The Company recognized a pre-tax gain of approximately $4
million related to the sale in SG&A in the third quarter of
2024, which is excluded from adjusted results.
“Our margins have improved year-over-year, and we continue to
strengthen our financial foundation,” said John DeSimone, Chief
Financial Officer. “We paid down debt in the quarter. Our total
leverage ratio is down to 3.3x at September 30 and we are on track
to reduce our total leverage ratio to 3.0x by the end of 2025, as
well as reduce total debt by $1 billion over the next 4 to 5
years.”
For the third quarter of 2024, the number of new distributors
joining Herbalife worldwide increased 14% year-over-year,
representing the second consecutive quarter of year-over-year
improvement. Distributor engagement remains strong with enhanced
training opportunities and community-building initiatives.
In August, the Company launched its all-new Diamond Development
Mastermind Program in the U.S., an ongoing training and
accountability program led by President Stephan Gratziani and
supported by network marketing industry leader and coach, Eric
Worre. Approximately 800 distributor leaders received interactive,
hands-on mentoring that leverages Mr. Gratziani’s previous
experience as an Herbalife independent distributor, combined with
Mr. Worre’s deep knowledge of the direct selling business. Content
presented included core business principles to further optimize and
scale their Herbalife business, leadership concepts to support
their organization’s development, and the introduction of a key
account management model that analyzes distributor performance
metrics and identifies potential new business opportunities.
Extravaganza training events also continued in September and
October. Approximately 37,300 attendees convened at events in
Mexico, the UK and Uzbekistan to learn best practices, trends and
new business insights. The Mexico event was highly anticipated
among attendees and sold out in five weeks, three and a half months
in advance of the training. A virtual attendance option was later
added to accommodate the demand. To date, the Company’s 2024
Extravaganza training events have attracted approximately 134,600
attendees.
On September 21, independent distributors, fitness enthusiasts
and employees participated in the Herbalife 2024 Worldwide Workout,
demonstrating their unique ability to activate their communities
through a healthy active lifestyle. During the event, the Company
set a new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title for the Largest
High-Intensity Interval Training Class across multiple venues. Over
4,900 individuals took part in workouts at host sites in Las Vegas,
Nevada, Los Angeles, California, Mexico City, Mexico and Mumbai,
India, among others. More than 11,000 participants from all over
the world also joined the workout virtually via Herbalife’s YouTube
livestream.
“We see a new and exciting energy all across Herbalife,” said
Michael Johnson. “We are providing opportunities for our
distributors to enhance their skills and create a community for
their customers through good nutrition and health and wellness. In
our 44 years as a company, our impact continues to stand on its own
merit.”

Supplemental Information
SCHEDULE A: RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(unaudited)
Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA and
Credit Agreement EBITDA
In addition to its reported results calculated in accordance
with U.S. GAAP, the Company has included in this release adjusted
net income, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted EBITDA and credit
agreement EBITDA, performance measures that the Securities and
Exchange Commission defines as “non-GAAP financial measures.”
Adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted EBITDA and
credit agreement EBITDA exclude the impact of certain unusual or
non-recurring items such as expenses related to restructuring
initiatives, expenses related to the digital technology program,
gains or losses from sale of property, gains or losses from
extinguishment of debt and Korea tax settlement, as further
detailed in the reconciliations below. Adjusted EBITDA margin
represents adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. Credit agreement
EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted for items permitted under our
senior secured credit facilities.
Management believes that such non-GAAP performance measures,
when read in conjunction with the Company’s reported results,
calculated in accordance with U.S. 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 U.S. 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 definitions and calculations as set forth in the
tables below of adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted
EBITDA and credit agreement 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 U.S. GAAP.
The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking
adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income, the comparable U.S. GAAP
measure, because, due to the unpredictable or unknown nature of
certain significant items, such as income tax expenses or benefits,
loss contingencies, and any gains or losses in connection with
refinancing transactions, we cannot reconcile this non-GAAP
projection without unreasonable efforts. We expect the variability
of these items, which are necessary for a presentation of the
reconciliation, could have a significant impact on our reported
U.S. GAAP financial 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 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.
