Nu Skin develops and distributes premium-quality, innovative beauty and wellness products that are sold worldwide under the Nu Skin, Pharmanex and ageLOC brands and a small number of other products and services. The Company reports revenue from 9 segments, consisting of its 7 geographic Nu Skin ~~segments—Mainland China;~~ segments—Americas, which includes Canada, Latin America and the United States; ~~South Korea;~~Mainland China; Southeast Asia/Pacific, which includes Australia, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam; South Korea; Japan; Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”), which includes markets in Europe as well as Israel and South Africa; ~~Japan;~~ and Hong Kong/Taiwan, which also includes Macau—and 2 Rhyz Investments segments—Manufacturing, which includes manufacturing and packaging subsidiaries it has acquired; and Rhyz other, which includes other investments by its Rhyz strategic investment arm (the Company’s subsidiaries operating within each segment are collectively referred to as the “Subsidiaries”).

2.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its Subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial information as of ~~March~~June ~~31,~~30, 2022, and for the three~~-month~~-and six-month periods ended ~~March~~June ~~31,~~30, 2022 and 2021. The results of operations of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the fiscal year. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 has been prepared using information from the audited financial statements at that date. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. The Company reclassified $~~2.2~~2.7 million and $4.9 million of events and other miscellaneous selling costs from the general and administration expenses line to the selling expenses line on the consolidated statement of income for the second quarter and first ~~quarter~~half of ~~2021.~~2021, respectively. The Company believes these costs are better reflected in selling expenses. The reclassification had no impact on operating income for the second quarter or first ~~quarter~~ half of 2021.

Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020~~2020,~~, the ~~FASB~~Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued, ASU ~~2020~~-~~04,~~2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional guidance for a limited time to ease the potential burden in accounting for the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting. The guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying US GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. ASU ~~2020~~-042020-04 applies only to contracts and hedging relationships that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022. The amendments in ASU ~~2020~~-042020-04 are elective and are effective upon issuance for all entities. The Company had previously elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. In the second quarter of 2022, the Company elected the hedge accounting expedient that allows an update to the hedged risk in active hedging relationships without de-designation as the Company’s debt transitioned to Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.

Credit Agreement

On June 14, 2022, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with several financial institutions as lenders and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, which amended and restated the 2018 Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement provides for a $400 million term loan facility and a $500 million revolving credit facility, each with a term of five years. Both facilities bear interest at the SOFR, plus a margin based on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. Commitment fees payable under the Credit Agreement are also based on the consolidated leverage ratio as defined in the Credit Agreement and range from 0.175% to 0.30% on the unused portion of the total lender commitments then in effect. The term loan facility amortizes in quarterly installments in amounts resulting in an annual amortization of 2.5% during the first year and 5.0% during the second, third, fourth and fifth years after the closing date of the Credit Agreement, with the remainder payable at final maturity. The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by certain of the Company's domestic subsidiaries and collateralized by assets of such subsidiaries, including a pledge of 65% of the capital stock of certain foreign subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a consolidated leverage ratio not exceeding 2.75 to 1.00 and a consolidated interest coverage ratio of no less than 3.00 to 1.00.

Additionally, diluted earnings per share data gives effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the periods presented. For the three-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and 2021, stock options of 0.1 million and 0.1 million, respectively, and for the ~~only dilutive common shares outstanding relate to the Company’s outstanding stock awards and options. For the~~ ~~three-month~~six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and 2021, stock options of 0.1 million and 0.1 million, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.

7.	Fair Value and Equity Investments

Fair Value

The carrying value of financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of debt approximates fair value due to the variable 30-day interest rate. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information.

The FASB Codification defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. On a quarterly basis, the Company measures at fair value certain financial assets, including cash equivalents. Accounting standards specify a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs have created the following fair-value hierarchy:

◾■

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

◾■

Level 2 – inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

◾■

Level 3 – unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assumptions.

Accounting standards permit companies, at their option, to measure certain financial instruments and other eligible items at fair value. The Company has elected not to apply the fair value option to existing eligible items beyond what is required by US GAAP.

Table of Contents

The following tables present the fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (U.S. dollars in thousands):

	Fair Value at March 31, 2022										Fair Value at June 30, 2022

The following table provides a summary of changes in fair value of the Company’s Level 3 life insurance contracts (U.S. dollars in thousands):

	2022			2021			2022			2021

Ending balance at March 31	$	46,450		$	46,606
Ending balance at June 30							$	40,201		$	49,061

Life insurance contracts: ~~ASC~~Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 preserves practicability exceptions to fair value measurements provided by other applicable provisions of U.S. GAAP. The guidance in ASC 715-30-35-60 allows a reporting entity, as a practical expedient, to use cash surrender value or conversion value as an expedient for fair value when it is present. Accordingly, the Company determines the fair value of its life insurance contracts as the cash-surrender value of life insurance policies held in its Rabbi Trust.

The following table provides a summary of changes in fair value of the Company’s Level 3 contingent consideration (U.S. dollars in thousands):

	2022			2021			2022			2021
Beginning balance at January 1	$	(10,341	)	$	(3,125	)	$	(10,341	)	$	(3,125	)
Additions from acquisitions		0			0			0			(8,702	)
Changes in fair value of contingent consideration		115			(139	)		1,750			(203	)
Ending balance at March 31	$	(10,226	)	$	(3,264	)
Ending balance at June 30							$	(8,591	)	$	(12,030	)

Contingent consideration: Contingent consideration represents the obligations incurred in connection with acquisitions. The estimate of fair value of the contingent consideration obligations requires subjective assumptions to be made regarding the future business results, discount rates, discount periods and probabilities assigned to various potential business result scenarios and was determined using probability assessments with respect to the likelihood of reaching various targets or of achieving certain milestones. The fair value measurement is based on significant inputs unobservable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement. Changes in current expectations of progress could change the probability of achieving the targets within the measurement periods and result in an increase or decrease in the fair value of the contingent consideration obligation.

Equity Investments

The Company maintains equity investments in companies which are accounted for under the measurement alternative described in ASC 321-10-35-2 for equity securities that lack readily determinable fair values. The carrying amount of equity securities held by the Company without readily determinable fair values was $28.1 million at each of ~~March~~June ~~31,~~30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. During the three months ended September 30, 2021 the Company recognized $18.1 million upward fair value adjustments, based on the valuation of additional equity issued by the investee which was deemed to be an observable transaction of a similar investment under ASC 321. The third quarter of 2021 gain was recorded within Other income (expense), net on the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Operations. The upward fair value adjustment represents a nonrecurring fair value measurement based on observable price changes and is classified as a Level 3 fair value measurement.

8.	Income Taxes

Provision for income taxes for the ~~first quarter of~~three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 was ~~$12.0~~$8.7 million and $20.6 million, compared to ~~$17.1~~$22.0 million and $39.1 million for the prior-year ~~period.~~periods. The effective tax rates for the ~~first quarter~~three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 ~~was 23.6%~~were 20.2% and 22.0% of pre-tax income compared to ~~26.5%~~27.1% and 26.8% in the prior-year ~~period.~~periods.

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes.” These standards establish financial accounting and reporting standards for the effects of income taxes that result from an enterprise’s activities during the current and preceding years. The Company takes an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. The Company pays income taxes in many foreign jurisdictions based on the profits realized in those jurisdictions, which can be significantly impacted by terms of intercompany transactions between the Company and its foreign affiliates. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are created in this process. The Company has netted these deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities by jurisdiction. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be ultimately realized. The Company had net deferred tax assets of ~~$22.0~~$21.3 million and $24.1 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The Company evaluates its indefinite reinvestment assertions with respect to foreign earnings for each quarter. For all foreign earnings, the Company accrues the applicable foreign income taxes. For the earnings that have been indefinitely reinvested, the Company does not accrue foreign withholding taxes. Undistributed earnings that the Company has indefinitely reinvested, for which no foreign withholding taxes have been provided, aggregate to $60.0 million as of December 31, 2021. If the amount designated as indefinitely reinvested as of December 31, 2021 was repatriated to the United States, the amount of incremental taxes would be approximately $6.0 million. The Company intends to utilize the indefinitely reinvested offshore earnings to fund foreign investments, specifically capital expenditures.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and in various state and foreign jurisdictions. In 2009, the Company entered into a voluntary program with the IRS called Compliance Assurance Process (“CAP”). The objective of CAP is to contemporaneously work with the IRS to achieve federal tax compliance and resolve all or most of the issues prior to filing of the tax return. As of December 31, 2021, tax years through 2020 have been audited and are effectively closed to further examination. For tax years 2021 and 2022, the Company is in the Bridge phase of the CAP program, pursuant to which the IRS will not accept disclosures, will not conduct reviews and will not provide letters of assurance for the Bridge years. There are limited circumstances ~~that~~under which tax years in the Bridge phase will be opened for examination. The Company may elect to continue participating in CAP for future tax years; the Company may withdraw from the program at any time. With a few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state and local income tax examination by tax authorities for the years before 2018. In major foreign jurisdictions, the Company is generally no longer subject to income tax examinations for years before 2016. However, statutes of limitations in certain countries may be as long as ten years. The Company is currently under examination in certain foreign jurisdictions; however, the outcomes of those reviews are not yet determinable. The Company’s unrecognized tax benefits relate to multiple jurisdictions. Due to potential increases in unrecognized tax benefits from the multiple jurisdictions in which the Company operates, as well as the expiration of various statutes of limitations, it is reasonably possible that the Company’s gross unrecognized tax benefits, net of foreign currency adjustments, may increase in the next 12 months by approximately ~~$1.0~~$2.0 to ~~$2.0~~$3.0 million.

9.	Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s borrowings.

Table of Contents

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. During 2022, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt.

For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income and subsequently reclassified into interest expense/income in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense/income as interest payments are made/received on the Company’s variable-rate debt. During the next twelve months, the Company estimates that an additional ~~$3.2~~$5.8 million will be reclassified as a reduction to interest expense.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had 4 outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk with a total notional amount of $200 million.

10.	Segment Information

The Company reports revenue from 9 segments, consisting of its 7 geographic Nu Skin segments—Americas, Mainland China, ~~Americas,~~Southeast Asia/Pacific, South Korea, ~~Southeast Asia/Pacific,~~ Japan, EMEA, and Hong Kong/Taiwan—and 2 Rhyz Investments segments—Manufacturing and Rhyz other. The Nu Skin other category includes miscellaneous corporate revenue and related adjustments. The Rhyz other segment includes other investments by our Rhyz strategic investment arm. These segments reflect the way the chief operating decision maker evaluates the Company’s business performance and allocates resources. Reported revenue includes only the revenue generated by sales to external customers.

Table of Contents

Profitability by segment as determined under US GAAP is driven primarily by the Company’s transfer pricing policies. Segment contribution, which is the Company’s segment profitability metric presented in the table below, excludes certain intercompany charges, specifically royalties, license fees, transfer pricing, discrete charges and other miscellaneous items. These charges have been included in Corporate and other expenses. Corporate and other expenses also include costs related to the Company’s executive and administrative offices, information technology, research and development, and marketing and supply chain functions not recorded at the segment level.

Prior year segment information has been recast to reflect the move of the Pacific components from the “America/Pacific” operating segment to the “Southeast Asia/Pacific” operating segment to comply with current segment presentation. Prior year segment information has ~~also~~ been recast to reflect the fourth quarter 2021 exit of the Grow Tech segment, which has been recast to Corporate and other ~~expenses.Consolidated~~expenses. Consolidated financial information is not affected.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on revenue and segment contribution. Each segment records direct expenses related to its employees and its operations.

~~Table of contents~~

Summarized financial information for the Company’s reportable segments is shown in the following tables. Asset information is not reviewed or included with the Company’s internal management reporting. Therefore, the Company has not disclosed asset information for each reportable segment.

11.	Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to government regulations pertaining to product formulation, labeling and packaging, product claims and advertising, and the Company’s direct selling system. The Company is also subject to the jurisdiction of numerous foreign tax and customs authorities. Any assertions or determination that either the Company or the Company’s sales force is not in compliance with existing statutes, laws, rules or regulations could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations. In addition, in any country or jurisdiction, the adoption of new statutes, laws, rules or regulations or changes in the interpretation of existing statutes, laws, rules or regulations could have a material adverse effect on the Company and its operations. No assurance can be given that the Company’s compliance with applicable statutes, laws, rules and regulations will not be challenged by foreign authorities or that such challenges will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company and its Subsidiaries are defendants in litigation, investigations and other proceedings involving various matters. Management believes that the ultimate liability arising from such claims and contingencies, if any, is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company is subject to regular audits by federal, state and foreign tax authorities. These audits may result in additional tax liabilities. The Company believes it has appropriately provided for income taxes for all years. Several factors drive the calculation of its tax reserves. Some of these factors include: (i) the expiration of various statutes of limitations; (ii) changes in tax law and regulations; (iii) issuance of tax rulings; and (iv) settlements with tax authorities. Changes in any of these factors may result in adjustments to the Company’s reserves, which would impact its reported financial results.

12.	Acquisitions

In April 2021, the Company acquired 100% ownership in MyFavoriteThings, Inc. (“Mavely”), making Mavely a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The acquisition enables the Company to continue to expand its digital tools. The purchase price for Mavely was $16.8 million, net of cash acquired of $0.4 million and $0.9 million to be paid within six months, all payable in cash. In addition, there is potential for an incremental $24.0 million in contingent consideration, which becomes payable if certain revenue and profitability targets are reached in 2021, 2022 and 2023. The fair value of the contingent consideration recorded on the acquisition date was $8.7 million. The Company allocated the gross purchase price of $29.4 million to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at estimated fair values. The estimated fair value of assets acquired included $16.4 million of intangible assets, $0.4 million of cash, $0.1 million of accounts receivable, and also resulted in a deferred tax liability of $3.5 million. The excess purchase price over the aggregate fair value of assets acquired less liabilities assumed of $12.6 million was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill recognized is attributable primarily to expected synergies. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The intangible assets acquired were comprised of $2.0 million for customer relationships, $11.3 million for technology, $2.8 million for trademarks and $0.3 million for other intangibles. The intangibles were assigned useful lives of 8 years for the technology and tradename, approximately 4 years for the customer relationships and 3 years for the other intangibles. All the goodwill was assigned to our Rhyz other segment. The allocation of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the acquisition was finalized during the three months ended September 30, 2021.

13.	Restructuring

In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company determined to exit the Grow Tech segment, to better align its resources on key strategic initiatives to achieve the future growth objectives and priorities of the core Nu Skin business. The Grow Tech segment was pursuing the commercialization of controlled-environment agriculture for use in the agriculture feed industry. This segment ~~has~~had been operating as part of the Company’s Rhyz strategic investment arm. As a result of the restructuring program, the Company recorded a non-cash charge of $38.5 million in 2021, including $9.2 million for impairment of goodwill, $9.0 million for impairment of intangibles, $13.7 million of fixed asset impairments and $6.6 million for inventory write-off, and $20.0 million of cash charges, including $6.5 million for employee severance and $13.5 million for other related cash charges with our restructuring. As of December 31, 2021, the $20.0 million liability related to ~~the~~ cash charges was recorded within Accrued expenses. During the first quarter of 2022, the Company made cash payments of $11.6 million, leaving an ending restructuring accrual of $8.3 million as of March 31, 2022. During the second quarter of 2022, the Company made cash payments of $8.0 million, leaving an ending restructuring accrual of $0.3 million as of June 30, 2022. The Company expects to pay out the remaining liability in the ~~first half~~third quarter of 2022. The restructuring charges were recorded in the previous Grow Tech segment, which in the current year has been recast to Corporate and Other.

14.	Subsequent Events

In August of 2022, the Company adopted a strategic plan to focus resources on the Company’s strategic priorities and optimize future growth and profitability. The global program includes workforce reductions and footprint optimization. The Company estimates total charges under the program will approximate $35–$45 million, with $30–$35 million in cash charges of severance and lease termination cost and $5–$10 million of non-cash charges of impairment of fixed assets related to the footprint optimization. The Company expects to substantially complete the program during the back half of 2022.

Overview

Revenue for the three-month period ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 decreased ~~11%~~20% to ~~$604.9~~$560.6 million, compared to ~~$677.0~~$704.1 million in the prior-year period, and revenue for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022 decreased 16% to $1.2 billion, compared to $1.4 billion in the prior-year period.

~~The declines for the three-month period ended March 31,~~Our second quarter and first half of 2022 ~~were largely~~revenue was softer than anticipated primarily driven by COVID-related ~~lockdowns and other~~ factors in Mainland China, distractions in EMEA related to the ongoing conflict in Russia and Ukraine, and the general global economic downturn. Despite these continuing headwinds, we are optimistic about our ~~eastern markets along~~EmpowerMe personalized beauty and wellness strategy with ~~the continued softening in EMEA. We are looking forward to our product launches, specifically~~ the expected launch of the ageLOC LumiSpa iOin the back half of the year.

Earnings per share for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2022 decreased ~~16%~~42% to ~~$0.76,~~$0.67, compared to ~~$0.91~~$1.15 in the prior-year period. Earnings per share for the first six months of 2022 decreased 31% to $1.43, compared to $2.06 in the prior-year period. The decrease in earnings per share for the second quarter isand first half of 2022 was primarily driven by the ~~decline~~decrease in revenue along with a decline in gross margin from sales promotions.

In August 2022, management approved a restructuring plan for the second half of 2022. The charges are expected to be approximately $30 million for the third quarter of 2022 and $35–$45 million for the second half of 2022. These charges will predominantly be recorded in restructuring and impairment, as part of operating income. The plan includes approximately $30–$35 million of cash charges related to severance and lease termination cost and approximately $5–$10 million of non-cash impairment charges of fixed assets related to the footprint optimization.

Table of ~~contents~~Contents

The following ~~table provides~~tables provide information concerning the number of Customers, Paid Affiliates and Sales Leaders in our core Nu Skin business for the three-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and 2021. As we continue to focus on customer acquisition, our Paid Affiliates, who primarily share products, are a bridge to attracting new customers and nurturing relationships and community. Paid Affiliates power our social commerce model and this is an important indicator of consumer purchasing activity in our business. During the first quarter of 2022, in connection with the introduction of the new metric Paid Affiliates, we reviewed how we currently present Sales Leaders and adjusted that metric’s definition to what we believe provides a better insight into the trends of our business. The definition of our Customer metric remained unchanged. We have recast the 2021 Sales Leaders to the new definition. ~~Except as discussed below regarding our Southeast Asia/Pacific segment, the trends under the new definition were materially consistent with those under the previous definition.~~

●

~~“Customers”~~“Customers” are persons who have purchased directly from the Company during the three months ended as of the date indicated. Our Customer numbers include members of our sales force who made such a purchase, including Paid Affiliates and those who qualify as Sales Leaders, but they do not include consumers who purchase products directly from members of our sales force.

●

“Paid Affiliates” are any Brand Affiliates, as well as sales employees and independent marketers in Mainland China, who earned sales compensation during the three-month period. In all of our markets besides Mainland China, we refer to members of our independent sales force as “Brand Affiliates” because their primary role is to promote our brand and products through their personal social networks.

●

“Sales Leaders” are the three-month average of our monthly Brand Affiliates, as well as sales employees and independent marketers in Mainland China, who had achieved certain qualification requirements as of the end of each month of the quarter.

Table of ~~contents~~Contents

~~The following~~Following is a narrative discussion of our results in each segment, which supplements the tables above.

Americas. The decline in revenue, Customers, Paid Affiliates and Sales Leaders in our Americas segment is predominantly attributable to the continued macro economic challenges in our Latin America markets. Our U.S. market's revenue increased 6% for the second quarter of 2022 and 10% for the first half of 2022 from continued momentum, specifically from the launch of Beauty Focus Collagen+ during the second half of 2021; the recent launch of Nu Biome, our latest wellness product aimed at aiding digestion to help maintain your overall gut health; and continued social adoption.

The year-over-year increase in segment contribution for the second quarter of 2022 is partially attributable to the increase in revenue in our U.S. market, which has more favorable margins than our Latin American markets. In addition, our selling expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased 4.5 percentage points, primarily from a product mix shift to products with a lower commission percentage. In addition, with the decline in revenue and Sales Leaders, the expense associated with incentive trips decreased as well. The decline in segment contribution for the first half of 2022 is primarily attributable to the decline in revenue and higher sales promotions in the first quarter of 2022, partially offset by the increase in revenue in our U.S market.

Mainland China. Our Mainland China market continued to be challenged during the second quarter and first ~~quarter~~half of 2022, with COVID-related lockdowns and other factors negatively impacting our selling and promotional activities. Due to increasing COVID-19 cases, the government implemented more significant lockdowns that precluded gatherings and meetings for the general population in Shanghai and other areas. ~~Revenue in this market benefited from our recently launched products, which generated approximately $18.0 million in revenue during the quarter, and from utilizing discounted product promotions.~~ As previously disclosed, we anticipate that COVID-related challenges will persist throughout 2022. During the second quarter, our Customers increased 19% primarily from customer promotions and launch of digital tools.

~~In addition, in February~~

During July 2022, we ~~learned of reports~~resumed allowing Sales Leader meetings in this market on a limited basis, so long as they are in compliance with government regulations and related controls that we have implemented. In our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the ~~Chinese media of COVID-19 cases that were reportedly traced back~~2022 first quarter, we referenced government inquiries related to a meeting in a hotel in Wuhan, Hubei Province organized by an independent marketer of Nu Skin China. The ~~meeting~~work on these inquiries was ~~not authorized~~affected by ~~Nu Skin~~the lockdowns in Mainland China, and was not registered with the applicable government authorities. After learning of the incident, we suspended all Sales Leader meetings in the Hubei Province, ceased operations in our Hubei Province branch office and conducted PCR tests on employees in that branch office. After the Wuhan meeting incident, various offices of Mainland China’s Administration for Market Regulation (the “AMRs”) began inquiries into our Nu Skin China business activities since early 2020. We were also later asked to provide information to Mainland China’s Ministry of Commerce, which ~~we did. We cooperated with the government, and we believe these matters are nearly resolved.~~

~~Upon receiving~~delayed the inquiries from being closed during the ~~AMRs,~~second quarter; however, we ~~proactively suspended all Sales Leader meetings throughout~~continue to believe we are in the ~~Mainland China market. Shortly thereafter, as noted above,~~final stages of the ~~government instituted more significant lockdowns in Shanghai and other areas~~process to close these matters. We believe the regulatory environment in Mainland China due to rising COVID-19 cases. We believe the meeting restrictions negatively impacted our business momentum in this market. While we currently anticipate resuming Sales Leader meetings when the government-imposed lockdowns are lifted, we believe the loss of momentumis becoming increasingly challenging and will ~~impact this market’s performance through the rest of this year. As we~~ continue to ~~invest in new social commerce technologies in this market, our focus is to decrease dependence on in-person meetings.~~be so over the medium and long terms.

The year-over-year decrease in segment contribution for the second quarter and first ~~quarter~~half of 2022 primarily reflects lower ~~revenue,~~revenue. The decrease also reflects the ~~fixed nature of general~~following: (a) a 5.5 and ~~administrative expenses and a 2.7~~3.9 percentage point decrease in gross margin ~~attributable to~~for the second quarter and first half of 2022, respectively, primarily from increased product promotions and discounts during the second quarter of 2022, along with a shift in product mix, where a higher proportion of devices were sold in the period and increased freight charges; (b) an ~~unfavorable sales mix, which was partially offset by~~increase in general and administrative expenses as a ~~1.7~~ percentage ~~point improvement~~of revenue, due to the fixed nature of these expenses; and (c) an increase in selling expense as a percentage of revenue. The salaries and service fees of our Sales Leaders in Mainland China are fixed until they are adjusted in a quarterly evaluation process. As a result, we have variations in our selling expenses as a percentage of revenue, particularly when there is a sequential change in revenue.

~~Americas~~. The decline in revenue, Customers, Paid Affiliates and Sales Leaders in our Americas segment is predominately attributable to continued economic challenges in our Latin America markets. Our U.S. market’s revenue increased 15% for the first quarter of 2022 from continued momentum, specifically from the launch of ~~Beauty Focus Collagen+~~ ~~during the second half of 2021 and continued social adoption.~~

The year-over-year decline in segment contribution for the first quarter of 2022 primarily reflects the decrease in revenue, a 1.8 percentage point decrease in gross margin, primarily attributable to higher sales promotions and an unfavorable product mix in the first quarter. Our Americas segment contribution was also negatively impacted by the fixed nature of general and administrative expenses.

Southeast Asia/Pacific. Our Southeast Asia/Pacific segment revenue increased 8%12% and 10% for the second quarter and first ~~quarter~~half of 2022, ~~with~~respectively, including a 3%4% negative impact from unfavorable foreign-currency ~~fluctuations.~~fluctuations for both periods presented. The increase in revenue was partially driven by a strong product ~~launch~~launches of ageLOC Meta ~~(locally~~(locally referred to as ageLOC Reset in the Southeast Asia markets), which generated approximately ~~$13.2~~$18.2 million in revenue for the second quarter and $31.4 million in revenue for the first half of 2022, along with ~~the~~ loosening of COVID restrictions in the markets. Our product launches and promotions during the quarter were focused on re-energizing our existing Sales Leaders, which led to a decline in our Customers and Paid Affiliates.~~Under our previous Sales Leaders definition, Sales Leaders increased 10% for the first quarter of 2022, this was driven by an increase of Sales Leaders in March from the launch of~~ ~~ageLOC Meta,~~ ~~while with the new definition being calculated as the average Sales Leaders for the three-months in the quarter, the March increase from the~~ ~~ageLOC Meta~~ ~~launch does not fully offset the decline in Sales Leaders for January and February.~~ ~~In addition, the March launch of~~ ~~ageLOC Meta~~ in Maylasia and Indonesia was a preview sale, which is only available to members of our sales force who achieve certain qualifications. This typically leads to an increase in Sales Leaders during the preview period.

The decrease in other income for the second quarter is predominately from a $5.7 million unrealized investment loss related to a controlled environment agriculture company we invested in as part of our previous Grow Tech segment. Following our fourth quarter of 2021 exit from the Grow Tech segment, we are in the process of exiting our investment. In addition, we recorded a $3.0 million increase in foreign currency losses during the second quarter of 2022 ~~was $1.5 million in expense~~ compared to the prior-year period, partially offset by a $1.6 million ~~of income for~~decline in the ~~same~~contingent consideration associated with our previous acquisition, due to current period changes in ~~2021. The increase in other expense is largely attributable to unrealized investment income for the first quarter of 2021.~~our assumptions and forecast.

Provision for income taxes

Provision for income taxes for the ~~first quarter of~~three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 was ~~$12.0~~$8.7 million and $20.6 million, respectively, compared to ~~$17.1~~$22.0 million and $39.1 million for the prior-year ~~period.~~periods. The effective tax ~~rate was 23.6%~~rates for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 were 20.2% and 22.0% of pre-tax ~~book~~ income ~~during the first quarter of 2022~~ compared, respectively, to ~~26.5%~~27.1% and 26.8% in the prior-year ~~period.~~periods. The decrease in ~~the~~ effective tax rate for the second quarter and first ~~quarter~~half of 2022 primarily reflects the strong growth in the U.S. market, which enabled us to utilize additional foreign tax credits to offset U.S. income taxes.

Net income

As a result of the foregoing factors, net income for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2022 was ~~$38.7~~$34.2 million, compared to ~~$47.4~~$59.3 million in the prior-year period. Net income for the first six months of 2022 was $73.0 million, compared to $106.8 million for the first six months of 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, our principal uses of cash have included operating expenses (particularly selling expenses) and working capital (principally inventory purchases), as well as capital expenditures, stock repurchases, dividends, and debt repayment. We have at times incurred long-term debt, or drawn on our revolving line of credit, to fund strategic transactions, stock repurchases, capital investments and short-term operating needs. We typically generate positive cash flow from operations due to favorable margins and have generally relied on cash from operations to fund operating activities. In the first ~~three~~six months of 2022, we generated ~~$7.5~~$54.1 million in cash from operations, compared to ~~$18.9~~$1.9 million ~~of cash used in operations~~ during the prior-year period. The increase in cash flow from operations primarily reflects an approximate ~~$17.2~~$32.2 million decline in inventory during the period, compared to an inventory increase of ~~$53.8~~$80.2 million in the prior year period, partially offset by the lower revenue and ~~an increase~~a decrease in accrued expenses from the first half of 2022 payout of our ~~accounts receivable from higher sales during the backend~~fourth quarter of ~~the quarter.~~2021 restructuring cost. Cash and cash equivalents, including current investments, as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were ~~$317.5~~$381.8 million and $354.8 million, respectively, with the ~~decrease~~increase being driven by ~~purchases~~cash from operations, increased debt following our debt modification during the second quarter of ~~property~~2022, and ~~equipment,~~cash received from the exercise of employee stock options, partially offset by capital expenditures, as discussed below, our quarterly dividend payments, stock repurchases and payment on liabilities associated with our fourth quarter 2021 restructuring.

Working capital. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, working capital was ~~$354.8~~$498.8 million, compared to $343.3 million as of December 31, 2021. The increase in working capital is primarily attributable to our second quarter debt modification, which resulted in a ~~$21.0~~net $52.5 million ~~increase in prepaid expenses and other, primarily~~of incremental borrowings, while our short-term debt decreased $67.5 million. Our working capital also benefited from ~~an increase in prepaid income tax, and~~ a ~~$28.5~~$83.1 million ~~decrease~~reduction in accrued expenses, primarily from the first ~~quarter~~half of 2022 pay-out of restructuring cost and employee incentive accruals, partially offset by ~~declines~~a $45.7 million decrease in ~~cash and cash equivalents and~~ inventory.

Capital expenditures. Capital expenditures for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 were ~~$10.3~~$19.8 million. We expect that our capital expenditures in 2022 will be primarily related to:

●

purchases and expenditures for computer systems and equipment, software, and application development;

●

the expansion and upgrade of facilities in our various markets; and

●

a new manufacturing plant in Mainland China.

We estimate that capital expenditures for the uses listed above will total approximately ~~$85–105~~$70–90 million for 2022. We are currently expecting to complete construction of the new manufacturing plant in Mainland China in the back half of 2022. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we have spent approximately ~~$40.3~~$40.5 million on this project, with ~~$3.0~~$3.2 million in the first ~~quarter~~half of 2022 and expect that our expenditures for this project will total approximately $52-57 million, including approximately $15-20 million during 2022.

Credit Agreement. ~~In April 2018,~~On June 14, 2022, we entered into aan Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with various financial institutions as lenders and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement provides for a $400.0 million term loan facility and a ~~$350.0~~$500.0 million revolving credit facility, each with a term of five years. We used the proceeds of the term loan and the draw on the revolving facility to pay off the previous credit ~~agreement, and the outstanding balance on the convertible notes.~~agreement. The interest rate applicable to the facilities is subject to adjustments based on our consolidated leverage ratio. The term loan facility amortizes in quarterly installments in amounts resulting in an annual amortization of 2.5% during the first year and 5.0% during the ~~first and second~~subsequent years ~~7.5% during the third and fourth years and 10.0% during the fifth year~~ after the closing date of the Credit Agreement, with the remainder payable at final maturity. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, ~~and December 31, 2021,~~ we had ~~$70.0~~$30.0 million ~~and $70.0 million~~of outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and ~~$300.0~~$400.0 million ~~and $307.5 million remaining balance~~ on our term loan facility. The carrying value of the debt also reflects debt issuance costs of ~~$(1.0) million and $(1.2)~~$(2.8) million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, ~~and December 31, 2021, respectively,~~ related to the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement requires us to maintain a consolidated leverage ratio not exceeding 2.25 to 1.00 and a consolidated interest coverage ratio of no less than 3.00 to 1.00. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we were in compliance with all debt covenants under the Credit Agreement. ~~In addition, as previously disclosed, we currently plan to refinance our credit facility during 2022.~~

Modification of previous credit agreement. On June 14, 2022, we repaid our outstanding debt under our credit agreement, dated as of April 18, 2018, with several financial institutions as lenders and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. We had indebtedness of $70.0 million on our revolver as of December 31, 2021, and $307.5 million on our term loan as of December 31, 2021.

Derivative Instruments. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we had four interest rate swaps, with a total notional principal amount of $200 million and a maturity date of July 31, 2025. We entered into these interest rate swap arrangements during the third quarter of 2020 to hedge the variable cash flows associated with our variable-rate debt under the Credit Agreement.

Stock repurchase plan. In 2018, our board of directors approved a stock repurchase plan authorizing us to repurchase up to $500.0 million of our outstanding shares of Class A common stock on the open market or in private transactions. During the ~~first three months~~second quarter of 2022, we repurchased approximately 0.2 million shares of our Class A common stock under the plan for $10.0 million. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, ~~$235.4~~$225.4 million was available for repurchases under the plan. Our stock repurchases are used primarily to offset dilution from our equity incentive plans and for strategic initiatives.

Dividends. In February and May 2022, our board of directors declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.385 per share. ~~This~~These quarterly cash ~~dividend~~dividends of $19.3 million ~~was~~and $19.4 million were paid on March 9, 2022 and June 8, 2022 to stockholders of record on February 28, 2022 and May 27, 2022. In ~~May~~August 2022, our board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.385 per share to be paid on ~~June 8,~~September 7, 2022 to stockholders of record on ~~May 27,~~August 26, 2022. Currently, we anticipate that our board of directors will continue to declare quarterly cash dividends and that the cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund our future dividend payments. However, the continued declaration of dividends is subject to the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon various factors, including our net earnings, financial condition, cash requirements, future prospects and other relevant factors.

Cash from foreign subsidiaries. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we held ~~$317.5~~$381.8 million and $354.8 million, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents, including current investments. These amounts include ~~$263.2~~$257.2 million and $274.9 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, held in our operations outside of the U.S. Substantially all of our non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents are readily convertible into U.S. dollars or other currencies, subject to procedural or other requirements in certain markets, as well as an indefinite-reinvestment designation, as described below.

We typically fund the cash requirements of our operations in the U.S. through intercompany dividends, intercompany loans and intercompany charges for products, use of intangible property, and corporate services. However, some markets impose government-approval or other requirements for the repatriation of dividends. For example, in Mainland China, we are unable to repatriate cash from current operations in the form of dividends until we file the necessary statutory financial statements for the relevant period. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we had ~~$62.7~~$56.6 million in cash denominated in Chinese RMB. We also have experienced delays in repatriating cash from Argentina. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had ~~$12.1~~$12.6 million and $11.3 million, respectively, in intercompany receivables with our Argentina subsidiary. We also have intercompany loan arrangements in some of our markets, including Mainland China, that allow us to access available cash, subject to certain limits in Mainland China and other jurisdictions. We also have drawn on our revolving line of credit to address cash needs until we can repatriate cash from Mainland China or other markets, and we may continue to do so. Except for $60.0 million of earnings in Mainland China that we designated as indefinitely reinvested during the second quarter of 2018, we currently plan to repatriate undistributed earnings from our non-U.S. operations as necessary, considering the cash needs of our non-U.S. operations and the cash needs of our U.S. operations for dividends, stock repurchases, capital investments, debt repayment and strategic transactions. Repatriation of non-U.S. earnings is subject to withholding taxes in certain foreign jurisdictions. Accordingly, we have accrued the necessary withholding taxes related to the non-U.S. earnings.

We currently believe that existing cash balances, future cash flows from operations and existing lines of credit will be adequate to fund our cash needs on both a short- and long-term basis. The majority of our historical expenses have been variable in nature, and as such, a potential reduction in the level of revenue would reduce our cash flow needs. In the event that our current cash balances, future cash flow from operations and current lines of credit are not sufficient to meet our obligations or strategic needs, we would consider raising additional funds in the debt or equity markets or restructuring our current debt obligations. Additionally, we would consider realigning our strategic plans, including a reduction in capital spending, stock repurchases or dividend payments.

Contingent Liabilities

Please refer to Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report for information regarding our contingent liabilities.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There were no significant changes in our critical accounting policies or estimates during the ~~first~~second quarter of 2022.

Seasonality and Cyclicality

In addition to general economic factors, we are impacted by seasonal factors and trends such as major cultural events and vacation patterns. For example, most Asian markets celebrate their respective local New Year in the first quarter, which generally has a negative impact on that quarter. We believe that direct selling is also generally negatively impacted during the third quarter, when many individuals, including our sales force, traditionally take vacations.

Prior to making a key product generally available for purchase, we may do one or more introductory offerings of the product, such as a preview of the product to our Sales Leaders, a limited-time offer, or other product introduction or promotion. These offerings may generate significant activity and a high level of purchasing, which can result in a higher-than-normal increase in revenue, Sales Leaders and/or Customers during the quarter and can skew year-over-year and sequential comparisons.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Constant-currency revenue change is a non-GAAP financial measure that removes the impact of fluctuations in foreign-currency exchange rates, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s performance. It is calculated by translating the current period’s revenue at the same average exchange rates in effect during the applicable prior-year period and then comparing that amount to the prior-year period’s revenue. We believe that constant-currency revenue change is useful to investors, lenders and analysts because such information enables them to gauge the impact of foreign-currency fluctuations on our revenue from period to period.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Currency Risk and Exchange Rate Information

A majority of our revenue and many of our expenses are recognized outside of the United States, except for inventory purchases, a significant portion of which are primarily transacted in U.S. dollars from vendors in the United States. The local currency of each of our Subsidiaries’ primary markets is considered the functional currency with the exception of our Asia product-distribution subsidiary in Singapore and, as discussed below, our subsidiary in Argentina. All revenue and expenses are translated at weighted-average exchange rates for the periods reported. Therefore, our reported revenue and earnings will be positively impacted by a weakening of the U.S. dollar and will be negatively impacted by a strengthening of the U.S. dollar. These impacts may be significant because a large portion of our business is derived from outside of the United States. Given the uncertainty of exchange rate fluctuations, it is difficult to predict the effect of these fluctuations on our future business, product pricing and results of operations or financial condition.

In the second quarter of 2018, published inflation indices indicated that the three-year cumulative inflation in Argentina exceeded 100 percent, and as of July 1, 2018, we elected to adopt highly inflationary accounting for our subsidiary in Argentina. Under highly inflationary accounting, the functional currency for our subsidiary in Argentina became the U.S. dollar, and the income statement and balance sheet for this subsidiary have been measured in U.S. dollars using both current and historical rates of exchange. The effect of changes in exchange rates on peso-denominated monetary assets and liabilities has been reflected in earnings in Other income (expense), net and was not material. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, our subsidiary in Argentina had a small net peso monetary position. Net sales of our subsidiary in Argentina were less than 2% of our consolidated net sales for the ~~three-month~~three- and six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and 2021.

We may seek to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates through the use of foreign currency exchange contracts and through intercompany loans of foreign currency. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We regularly monitor our foreign currency risks and periodically take measures to reduce the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations on our operating results. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and 2021, we did not hold material non-designated mark-to-market forward derivative contracts to hedge foreign denominated intercompany positions or third party foreign debt. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, and 2021 we did not hold any material forward contracts designated as foreign currency cash flow hedges. We continue to evaluate our foreign currency hedging policy.

For additional information about our market risk see Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on that evaluation, our CEO and our CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting.

We made no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

~~There have been no material changes from~~The information presented below supplements and should be read in conjunction with the ~~risk factors previously disclosed~~detailed discussion of risks associated with our business in our recent SEC filings, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 2021 fiscal year and subsequent reports.

If we are unable to retain our existing sales force and recruit additional people to join our sales force, our revenue may not increase and may even decline.

Our products are primarily marketed by our sales force, and we depend on them to generate virtually all of our revenue. Our sales force may terminate their services at any time, and like most direct selling companies, we experience high turnover among our sales force from year to year. People who join our company to purchase our products for personal consumption or for short-term income goals frequently only stay with us for a short time. Sales Leaders who have committed time and effort to build a sales organization will generally stay for longer periods. To increase our revenue, we must increase the number of and/or the productivity of our sales force. We must also expand our outreach and outbound efforts to attract, connect and nurture new customers for a wider consumer base who purchase product and whom we can foster along a consumer journey to promote retention and higher lifetime value.

We have experienced periodic fluctuations in both Sales Leaders and Customers in the past and could experience such fluctuations again in the future. For example, our Sales Leaders in Mainland China declined 46% from December 31, 2018 to December 31, 2019 due to such factors as meeting restrictions and negative media scrutiny. Our ability to retain our Sales Leaders and Customers could be affected as our sales force makes increased use of social sharing channels, which may allow them to more easily engage their consumers and sales network in other opportunities. If our initiatives do not drive growth in both Sales Leaders and Customers, our operating results could be harmed. While we take many steps to help train, motivate and retain our sales force, we cannot accurately predict how the number and productivity of our sales force may fluctuate because we rely primarily upon our Sales Leaders to find new consumers and to find, train and develop new Sales Leaders. Our operating results could be harmed if we and our Sales Leaders do not generate sufficient interest in our business and its products to retain and motivate our existing sales force and attract new people to join our sales force.

The number and productivity of our sales force is negatively impacted by several additional factors, including:

●

any adverse publicity or negative public perception regarding us, our products or ingredients, our distribution channel, or our industry or competitors;

●

lack of interest in, dissatisfaction with, or the technical failure of, existing or new products;

●

lack of compelling products or income opportunities, including through our sales compensation plans and incentive trips and other offerings;

●

negative sales force reaction to changes in our sales compensation plans or to our failure to make changes that would be necessary to keep our compensation competitive with the market;

●

interactions with our company, including our actions to enforce our policies and procedures and the quality of our customer service;

●

any regulatory actions or charges against us or others in our industry, as well as regulatory changes that impact product formulations and sales viability;

●

general economic, business, public health and geopolitical conditions, including employment levels, employment trends such as the gig and sharing economies, pandemics or other conditions that curtail person-to-person interactions, and the ongoing conflict in Russia and Ukraine which has caused distraction to our sales force;

●

changes in the policies of social media platforms used to prospect or recruit potential consumers and sales force participants;

●

our and our sales force’s ability to provide a positive customer experience and to facilitate customer loyalty;

●

recruiting efforts of our competitors and changes in consumer-loyalty trends; and

●

potential saturation or maturity levels in a given market, which could negatively impact our ability to attract and retain our sales force in such market.

Table of Contents

Our ability to conduct business in international markets may be affected by political, legal, tax and regulatory risks.

Our ability to capitalize on growth in new international markets and to maintain the current level of operations in our existing international markets is exposed to risks associated with our international operations, including:

●

the possibility that a government might ban or severely restrict our sales compensation and business models;

●

the possibility that local civil unrest, political instability, or changes in diplomatic or trade relationships might disrupt our operations in one or more markets—for example, the ongoing conflict in Russia and Ukraine has caused distraction to our sales force;

●

the lack of well-established or reliable legal systems in certain areas where we operate;

●

the presence of high inflation in the economies of international markets in which we operate;

●

the possibility that a government authority might impose legal, tax, customs, or other financial burdens on us or our sales force, due, for example, to the structure of our operations in various markets;

●

the possibility that a government authority might challenge the status of our sales force as independent contractors or impose employment or social taxes on our sales force; and

●

the possibility that governments may impose currency remittance restrictions limiting our ability to repatriate cash.

There has been an increasing level of tension in U.S.-China relations over the last few years. Given the significant size of our China business, our business could be harmed if relations continue to deteriorate or additional sanctions or restrictions are imposed by either government. In addition, there have been adverse public reaction and media attention to statements made by representatives of other businesses related to these issues that have adversely affected business. We could similarly face adverse public or media attention, and potentially increased regulatory scrutiny, as a result of increased trade or political tensions or any statements or actions by employees or our sales force that generate publicity with respect to these issues.

On August 1, 2022, we adopted a strategic plan to focus resources on the Company’s strategic priorities and optimize future growth and profitability. This global program includes workforce reductions and footprint optimization. We estimate total charges under the program will be approximately $35–$45 million, consisting of $20–$25 million in cash severance payments, approximately $10 million in cash costs associated with lease terminations and $5–$10 million of non-cash charges of impairment of fixed assets related to the footprint optimization. We expect that the actions contemplated under the program will be substantially completed by December 31, 2022.
