Herbalife Nutrition Reports Record-Breaking Quarterly Net Sales with
22% Growth versus Prior Year; Provides 2020 and 2021 Guidance


LOS ANGELES, November 5th, 2020 – Herbalife Nutrition Ltd. (NYSE: HLF) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended
September 30, 2020.

“We achieved another net sales record for the quarter, exceeding $1.5 billion, as consumer interest in health and wellness continued to drive demand for our nutrition products,” said John Agwunobi, Chairman and CEO of Herbalife Nutrition.

HIGHLIGHTS
 
Reported net sales of $1.5 billion for the third quarter 2020 increased 22.3% compared to the third quarter 2019 and represents the largest quarterly result in Company history.

Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates and Venezuela, net sales increased 25.1% during the third quarter compared to 2019.

Volume points of 1.9 billion, also a quarterly record for the Company, increased 23.2% compared to the third quarter 2019.

This is the tenth consecutive quarter of year-over-year volume point growth.

Year-over-year volume point growth in all six geographic regions with four of six regions delivering double-digit increases.

Third quarter 2020 reported diluted EPS of $1.04 and adjusted1 diluted EPS of $1.15, compared to $0.58 and $0.73, respectively, for the third quarter 2019, which were negatively impacted in 2020 by expenses of approximately $3.2 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, and in third quarter 2019 of $5.8 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, related to the China Growth and Impact Investment Program.

During the third quarter, the Company repurchased approximately 16.4 million of its common shares at an aggregate cost of approximately $800 million, including $750 million from the modified Dutch auction tender offer completed in August 2020.

Providing Q4 and FY 2020 net sales guidance ranges of 10.0% - 20.0% and 12.2% - 14.7% growth, respectively.

Initial FY 2021 net sales guidance range of 3.0% - 11.0% growth, as well as reported and adjusted1 diluted EPS guidance ranges of $3.50 - $4.00 and $3.65 – $4.15, respectively.


_________________
1 Adjusted diluted EPS is a non-GAAP measure and excludes the impact of: non-cash interest expense and amortization associated with the Company’s convertible notes, expenses related to regulatory inquiries and legal accruals, China grant income, contingent value rights revaluation, income related to finalization of insurance recoveries, debt issuance costs related to the senior secured credit facility amendment, Mexico VAT assessment, and net expenses related to the COVID-19 pandemic. See Schedule A – “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a detailed reconciliation of adjusted net income to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP and a reconciliation of adjusted diluted EPS to diluted EPS calculated in accordance with GAAP and a discussion of why we believe these non-GAAP measures are useful. See the “Outlook” discussion below and the related footnotes for additional information regarding adjusted diluted EPS guidance.

(a) Venezuela has been generally impacted by significant price increases and erosion in foreign currency exchange rates. Venezuela represents less than 1% of the Company’s consolidated net sales.  See Schedule A – “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a discussion of why we believe adjusting for Venezuela is useful.
* Figure not meaningful due to significant foreign currency fluctuations in Venezuela and the price increases implemented as a result thereof that, when considered in isolation, have a disproportionately large impact on the Company’s South and Central American region and consolidated results. Amounts were 35.4% and 26.1% for South & Central America and Worldwide Total, respectively.

See Schedule A – “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a detailed reconciliation of adjusted diluted EPS to diluted EPS calculated in accordance with GAAP and a discussion of why the Company believes these non-GAAP measures are useful.

(d) Currency adjusted net sales and adjusted diluted EPS represent projections translated into US dollars at currency rates equal to the average rates used to translate 2019 fourth quarter and full year net sales and diluted EPS and adjusted for items such as hedging gains/losses and Venezuela to be directly comparable to 2019 values.

Supplemental Information
 

SCHEDULE A: RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

(Unaudited and unreviewed), (All tables provide Dollars in millions, except per Share Data)

In addition to its reported results and guidance calculated in accordance with GAAP, the Company has included in this release adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS, performance measures that the Securities and Exchange Commission defines as “non-GAAP financial measures.”  Management believes that such non-GAAP financial measures, when read in conjunction with the Company’s reported or forecasted results, in each case 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 or forecasted 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 of adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share 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 impact of foreign currency fluctuations in Venezuela and the price increases the Company implements as a result of the highly inflationary economy in that market can each, when considered in isolation, have a disproportionately large impact to the Company’s consolidated results despite the offsetting nature of these drivers and that net sales in Venezuela, which represent less than 1% of the Company’s consolidated net sales, are not material to our consolidated results. Therefore, in certain instances, the Company believes it is helpful to provide additional information with respect to these factors as reported and excluding the impact of Venezuela to illustrate the disproportionate nature of Venezuela’s individual pricing and foreign exchange impact to the Company’s consolidated results. However, excluding the impact of Venezuela from these measures is not in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to the presentation and discussion thereof calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.


The following is a reconciliation of net income, presented and reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting

The following table is a reconciliation of diluted shares outstanding, as presented and reported in accordance with GAAP, to adjusted diluted shares outstanding,
 
adjusted to include the impact of outstanding capped call transactions in 2019. The Company's outstanding capped call transactions were
 
anti-dilutive and not included in GAAP earnings per share for 2019 because they were intended to mitigate the dilutive effect of the Company's
 
convertible notes due 2019, if the trading price of the Company's stock exceeded the conversion price, up to a certain level. Therefore, the Company has
 
adjusted the diluted shares outstanding to include the impact of the capped calls, based on the average share price for the period that the capped calls were anti-dilutive.

(1) Based on interim income tax reporting rules, these expenses are not considered discrete items. As a result, the Company's full year effective
   
tax rate is impacted by these items. When applying the full year effective tax rate to year-to-date income, the Company's year-to-date tax provision
   
recorded with respect to these non-GAAP adjustments is different from the forecasted full-year tax provision impact of these items. As a
   
consequence, adjustments to the year-to-date and quarterly tax impacts will be recorded as the adjusted full year effective tax rate is applied to
   
income in subsequent periods. Additionally, adjustments to items unrelated to these non-GAAP adjustments may have an effect on the
   
income tax impact of these non-GAAP adjustments in subsequent periods. The Company plans to update the income tax impact of these
   
items in subsequent interim reporting periods.
