Supplemental Information

Adjusted EBITDA

The Company has included in this release adjusted EBITDA, a performance measure that the Securities and Exchange Commission defines as a “non-GAAP financial measure.” Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income attributable to Herbalife excluding 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 certain tax expenses and benefits.

Management believes that such non-GAAP performance measure, 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 it facilitates 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 definition and calculation of adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measure used by other companies because other companies may not calculate it in the same manner as the Company does and should not be viewed in isolation from, nor as an alternative to, net income attributable to Herbalife calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Currency Fluctuation

The Company’s international operations have provided and will continue to provide a significant portion of its 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 the Company’s 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, the Company also compares 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 the Company’s 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. The Company believes presenting net sales in local currency is useful to investors because it allows a meaningful comparison of net sales of its 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 net sales calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
