About this update from Herbalife Ltd.
Advances Personalized Nutrition with Bioniq launch; CFO John DeSimone to Retire at Year-End; Scott Schaefer Named Successor LOS ANGELES, August 05, 2026 --( BUSINESS WIRE )-- Herbalife Ltd. (NYSE: HLF) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026: "This quarter marks an important milestone in the execution of our personalized nutrition strategy with the launch of Bioniq in Europe and the United States. We are bringing our vision to life and expanding the value we create for customers." - Stephan Gratziani, CEO Highlights Second Quarter 2026 Recent Developments Outlook Management Commentary Herbalife reported second quarter 2026 net sales of $1.3 billion, up 5.4% year-over-year, including 40 basis points of foreign currency ("FX") headwinds. On a constant currency basis2, net sales increased 5.8% year-over-year for the quarter. This was the Company's fourth consecutive quarter of year-over-year net sales growth on both a reported and constant currency basis. Gross profit margin was 77.7% in the second quarter, compared to 78.0% in the prior year period. On a year-over-year and approximate basis, the change primarily reflects 47 basis points of sales mix pressure, 22 basis points of higher other costs, 20 basis points from higher inventory write-downs and 9 basis points from cost changes related to self-manufacturing and sourcing. These impacts were partially offset by 64 basis points of pricing benefits. For the quarter, net loss attributable to Herbalife was $(26.3) million, with net loss margin of 2.0%, and adjusted net income1 of $53.3 million. Adjusted EBITDA1 of $166.6 million includes approximately $7.6 million of FX headwinds year-over-year, with adjusted EBITDA1 margin of 12.6%, down 120 basis points versus the second quarter of 2025. Diluted loss per share was $(0.25), with adjusted diluted EPS1 of $0.51, which includes a $0.04 year-over-year FX headwind. Net cash provided by operating activities was $32.9 million and $146.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. Capital expenditures were $11.3 million and $22.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and capitalized SaaS implementation costs were approximately $8 million and $18 million, respectively. The Company expects to incur total capitalized SaaS implementation costs of approximately $35 million to $55 million for the full year of 2026, which are not included in capital expenditures. "Our net sales and EBITDA results for the second quarter were at the high end of previously issued guidance," said John DeSimone, Chief Financial Officer. "While the recent strengthening of the U.S. dollar has resulted in additional foreign exchange headwinds affecting our reported outlook for the back half of the year, our constant currency outlook remains consistent with the expectations we shared last quarter." Following the first 2026 Extravaganza events in India in April, the Company hosted additional events in Uzbekistan, China, Panama, Singapore, Poland, and the United States. To date, the 2026 events have attracted over 110,000 attendees, reflecting strong distributor engagement and continued demand for in-person training, recognition and business development opportunities. In conjunction with the EMEA and U.S. Extravaganzas, the Company launched Bioniq GO, entering its next generation of personalized products, matching customers to one of forty formulas, across eleven European markets and the U.S., with additional markets to follow later in 2026. In addition, the Company is now offering distributors, customers and preferred members in the newly-launched European markets the option to subscribe to automatic monthly deliveries of Bioniq GO. Our global Fuel Like Ronaldo campaign brought our personalized nutrition philosophy to life by highlighting the daily habits behind Cristiano Ronaldo's performance. The global campaign reached consumers worldwide across social media, digital, print and broadcast media, as well as in-person fan fest activations around a major sporting event, creating new opportunities to engage consumers and support our distributors around the world. Recent Developments At the North America Extravaganza in July, the Company delivered the next release of its Pro2col™ platform as part of its extended beta program, introducing a new user experience, enhanced features, and integration with blood test diagnostics, rooted in direct distributor feedback received since initiation of the beta program. Alongside the platform updates, the Company began an early beta of at-home blood biomarker diagnostics with a select group of distributors. In July, the Company also launched two new products under Life I/O, its recently launched healthy lifespan brand. Helio is a daily, all-in-one super shake formulated with foundational and trending ingredients like protein, fiber, methylated B vitamins, creatine, and superfood, adaptogen, and polyphenol blends for everyday health and wellness.* Stemming from its acquisition of Pruvit, Activate Energy marks the Company's channel-exclusive entry into the exogenous ketones market, containing D-isomer BHB ketones. CFO Transition As announced in a separate press release today, Scott Schaefer will succeed John DeSimone as CFO, as part of a planned transition, effective January 1, 2027. Mr. DeSimone will retire, effective December 31, 2026. "We delivered a fourth consecutive quarter of year-over-year net sales growth, and we continue to expect net sales growth for the remainder of the year," said Stephan Gratziani. "This momentum reflects the resilience of Herbalife and has us poised to successfully carry out our long-term growth strategy. John DeSimone played an impactful role in laying this foundation, and I am grateful to him for his leadership and partnership. I am confident Scott Schaefer's financial expertise and strategic perspective will help propel us in our next chapter." * These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

Results of Operations Supplemental Information SCHEDULE A: RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (unaudited) Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Credit Agreement EBITDA and Net Debt 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 are 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, as further detailed in the reconciliations below. In addition, during the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company recognized $147.3 million of non-cash net deferred income tax benefits related to changes the Company initiated to its corporate entity structure, including intra-entity transfers of intellectual property to one of its European subsidiaries, which was excluded from adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS. A portion of these non-cash net deferred income tax benefits will reduce cash taxes paid and result in net deferred tax expense recognized in future periods. Beginning in the first quarter of 2025 and in future periods, the related net deferred tax effects will be excluded from adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. Credit agreement EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted for items permitted under the Company's 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. Net debt is calculated as the aggregate outstanding principal amount of total debt less cash and cash equivalents. Management believes net debt is useful, when read in conjunction with the Company's reported balance sheet, because it provides investors with information regarding the Company's leverage profile, including its debt obligations that could not be repaid with cash and cash equivalents on hand. This measure is not meant, however, to imply that the Company intends to use all available cash to pay down debt. The Company's definitions and calculations as set forth in the tables below of adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted EBITDA, credit agreement EBITDA and net debt 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 attributable to Herbalife, diluted EPS or total debt, as applicable, calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA or constant currency adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income attributable to Herbalife, and adjusted effective tax rate to GAAP tax rate, the comparable U.S. GAAP measures, 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, the Company cannot reconcile these non-GAAP projections without unreasonable efforts. The Company expects the variability of these items, which are necessary for a presentation of the reconciliation, could have a significant impact on the Company's reported U.S. GAAP financial results. 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. In addition, the Company presents adjusted EBITDA on a constant currency basis, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, and is calculated by translating the current period adjusted EBITDA into U.S. dollars using the same foreign currency exchange rates that were used to translate such measure for the previous comparable period and adjusting for other FX related impacts. However, net sales in local currency and adjusted EBITDA on a constant currency basis should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net sales and adjusted EBITDA, respectively, in U.S. dollar measures that reflect current period exchange rates, or to net sales and net income attributable to Herbalife calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The following is a reconciliation of net (loss) income attributable to Herbalife to adjusted net income:
