NU SKIN ENTERPRISES, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.	The Company

Nu Skin Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”) is a holding company, with Nu Skin, being the primary operating unit. 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 nine segments, consisting of its seven geographic Nu Skin segments—Americas, which includes Canada, Latin America and the United States; 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; and Hong Kong/Taiwan, which also includes Macau—and two 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 ~~September~~March ~~30,~~31, ~~2022,~~2023, and for the three~~-and nine-month~~-month periods ended ~~September~~March ~~30,~~31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021.~~2022. 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~~2022 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~~ ~~$4.6 million and $9.5 million~~ ~~of events and other miscellaneous selling costs from the general and administration expenses line to the~~ ~~sellingexpenses~~ ~~line on the consolidated statement of income for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30,~~ ~~2021, respectively.~~ ~~The Company believes these costs are better reflected in selling expenses. The reclassification had no impact on operating income for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30,~~ ~~2021.~~

2022.

Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 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 2020-04 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.~~2024. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 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 the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). In the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company elected the hedge accounting expedient that allows an amendment to existing hedges without de-designation as the Company’s hedges transitioned to 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.

Revenue Recognition

Contract Liabilities – Customer Loyalty Programs

Contract liabilities, recorded as deferred revenue within the accrued expenses line in the consolidated balance sheets, include loyalty point program deferrals with certain customers which are accounted for as a reduction in the transaction price and are generally recognized as points are redeemed for additional products.

The balance of deferred revenue related to contract liabilities as of ~~September~~March ~~30,~~31, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021~~2022 was $~~17.7~~17.4 million and $~~22.0~~18.7 million, respectively. The contract liabilities impact to revenue for the three-month periods ended ~~September~~March ~~30,~~31, ~~2022,~~2023, and ~~2021~~2022 was an increase of $~~0.7~~1.3 million and ~~a decrease of $0.7 million, respectively. The impact to revenue for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022, and 2021 was~~ an increase of ~~$4.3~~$1.2 million, ~~and a decrease of $6.3 million,~~ respectively.

Goodwill

The Company’s reporting units for goodwill are its operating segments, which are also its reportable segments.

The Company completed the annual goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment testing as of October 1, 2022, and concluded that the fair value of the reporting units were determined to be in excess of its carrying amounts and no goodwill impairment charge was required. As of the October 1, 2022 testing date, the fair value of the Manufacturing reporting unit was estimated to be approximately 8% in excess of its carrying amount, and therefore the reporting unit is considered to be at risk of future impairment. The Manufacturing reporting unit's fair value remains sensitive to significant unfavorable changes in revenue, gross margin and discount rates that could negatively impact future analyses.

Fair value determinations require considerable judgment and are sensitive to changes in underlying assumptions and factors. As a result, there can be no assurance that the estimates and assumptions made for purposes of the goodwill impairment tests will prove to be an accurate prediction of the future. Although the Manufacturing reporting unit showed strong revenue growth in fiscal year 2020 and 2021, the fair value of the reporting unit in 2022 was negatively impacted by an increase in the discount rate due to the current interest rate environment, and lower near-term revenue projections. Current projections used for the Manufacturing reporting unit reflect revenue growth attributable to the continued expansion of capacity, continued intercompany sales to Nu Skin, and the recent acquisition of new customers. While historical performance and current expectations have resulted in fair values of the Manufacturing reporting unit in excess of carrying values, if the assumptions are not realized an impairment charge may be recorded in the future.

The following table presents goodwill allocated to the Company’s reportable segments for the periods ended ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021~~2022 (U.S. dollars in thousands):

Debt

~~2018 Credit Agreement~~

On April 18, 2018, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “2018 Credit Agreement”) with several financial institutions as lenders and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. The 2018 Credit Agreement provided for a $400 million term loan facility and a $350 million revolving credit facility, each with a term of five years. Both facilities bore interest at the LIBOR, plus a margin based on the consolidated leverage ratio. The term loan facility amortized in quarterly installments in amounts resulting in an annual amortization of 5.0% during the first and second years, 7.5% during the third and fourth years and 10.0% during the fifth year after the closing date of the 2018 Credit Agreement, with the remainder payable at final maturity. The 2018 Credit Agreement required the Company 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.

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. As of ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement.

6.	Capital Stock

Net income per share

Net income per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. 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~~three-month periods ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, the only dilutive common shares outstanding relate to the Company’s outstanding stock awards and ~~2021,~~options. For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, stock options of ~~0.5~~0.1 million and 0.1 million, ~~respectively, and for the nine-month periods ended September 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.

In February, ~~May~~ ~~and~~ ~~August 2022~~, the Company’s board of directors declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.385 per share. These quarterly cash dividends of $19.3 million, $19.4 million and $19.3 million were paid on March 9, 2022, June 8, 2022 and September 7, 2022, respectively, to stockholders of record on February 28, 2022, May 27, 2022 and August 26, 2022, respectively. In ~~October 2022~~ 2023, the Company’s board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of ~~$0.385~~$0.39 per share. This quarterly cash dividend of $19.4 million was paid on March 8, 2023 to stockholders of record on February 27, 2023. In April 2023, the board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.39 per share to be paid on ~~December~~June 7, ~~2022~~2023 to stockholders of record on ~~November 25, 2022.~~May 26, 2023.

Repurchase of common stock

During the three-month periods ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, ~~and 2021,~~ the Company repurchased ~~1.0 million~~zero and 0.2 million shares of its Class A common stock under its stock repurchase ~~plan~~plans for ~~$40.0 million~~zero and $10.0 million, respectively. During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company repurchased 1.4 million shares and 1.4 million shares of its Class A common stock under its stock repurchase plan for $60.0 million and $70.4 million, respectively.As of ~~September 30, 2022,~~ ~~$185.4~~March 31, 2023, $175.4 million was available for repurchases under the Company’s stock repurchase plan.

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.

~~Table of Contents~~

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.

Table of Contents

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.

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 September 30, 2022										Fair Value at March 31, 2023

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
Beginning balance at January 1 $ 49,851 $ 45,453
Actual return on plan assets (11,549 ) 3,172
Purchases and issuances — 7,016

Transfers into Level 3 — —
Ending balance at September 30 $ 38,302 $ 48,625

Actual return on plan assets		1,998		(3,401	)
Ending balance at March 31	$	42,053	$	46,450

Life insurance contracts: 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			2023			2022
Beginning balance at January 1	$	(10,341	)	$	(3,125	)	$	(6,364	)	$	(10,341	)

Ending balance at September 30	$	(8,372	)	$	(12,132	)
Ending balance at March 31							$	(6,271	)	$	(10,226	)

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 ~~September~~ ~~30,2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. 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 Income. 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 ~~three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022~~first quarter of 2023 was ~~$(3.6) million and $17.1~~$3.2 million, compared to ~~$18.4 million and $57.5~~$12.0 million for the prior-year ~~periods.~~period. The effective tax rates for the ~~three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022, were 12.3% and 26.4%~~first quarter 2023 was 22.0% of pre-tax income compared to ~~27.0% and 26.9%~~23.6% in the prior-year ~~periods.~~period.

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 ~~$22.2~~$91.8 million and ~~$24.1~~$89.3 million as of ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, 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.~~2022. If the amount designated as indefinitely reinvested as of December 31, ~~2021~~2022 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,~~2022, tax years through 2020 have been audited and are effectively closed to further examination. For tax years 2021 and ~~2022,~~2023, 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 ~~under which~~that tax years in the Bridge phase will be opened for examination. For tax year 2022, the Company has accepted an invitation to participate in the IRS’s new pilot program, Bridge Plus. 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~~2019. Foreign jurisdictions ~~the Company is generally no longer subject to~~have varying lengths of statues of limitations for income tax ~~examinations for~~examinations. Some statutes are as short as three years ~~before 2016. However, statutes of limitations~~and in certain ~~countries~~markets 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~~$3.0 to ~~$2.0~~$4.0 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.

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,~~2023, 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 ~~$8.2~~$8.8 million will be reclassified as a reduction to interest expense.

As of ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the Company had four 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 nine segments, consisting of its seven geographic Nu Skin segments—Americas, Mainland China, Southeast Asia/Pacific, South Korea, Japan, EMEA, and Hong Kong/~~Taiwan—~~Taiwan—and two 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.

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~~

In the first quarter of 2023, the Company adjusted how it allocates certain corporate overhead costs to the segments. The 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 been recast to reflect the fourth quarter 2021 exit of the Grow Tech segment, which has been recast to Corporate and other 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.

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.

The Rhyz Investments Manufacturing segment had ~~$17.5~~$11.8 million and ~~$27.4~~$14.6 million of intersegment revenue for the ~~three months~~three-month period ended ~~September~~ ~~30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, ~~and 2021, respectively, and $48.9 million and $68.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021,~~ respectively. Intersegment revenue is eliminated in the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported segment revenue in the table above.

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.

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 ~~had~~has been operating as part of the ~~Company’s~~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~~The restructuring charges were recorded in our previous Grow Tech segment, which has been recast to ~~cash charges was recorded within Accrued expenses.~~Corporate & Other.

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.2022.

The year-over-year decrease in segment contribution for the third quarter is primarily attributable to a 2.3 percentage point decrease in gross margin, primarily from sales mix and higher sales discounts and promotions during the quarter. The year-over-year decreasedecline in segment contribution for the first ~~nine months~~quarter of ~~2022~~2023 primarily reflects the decrease in revenue and the fixed nature of general and administrative expenses.

South Korea. Our first quarter of 2023 constant-currency revenue increased 3% compared to 2022; our reported revenue reflects a 6% negative impact from foreign-currency fluctuations. During the first quarter of 2023, we previewed our latest personalized wellness product, ageLOC TRMe, which generated approximately $19.4 million in revenue.

2023.

The year-over-year decrease in segment contribution for the ~~third~~first quarter ~~and first nine months~~ of ~~2022~~2023 primarily reflects lower ~~revenue. The decrease also reflects a 1.7~~revenue, and 3.3 percentage point decrease in gross margin for the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, respectively, primarily from increased product promotions and discounts during the third 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.

The increase in revenue was partially driven by strong product launcheslaunch of ageLOC Meta ((locally referred to as ageLOC Reset in the Southeast Asia markets), which generated approximately ~~$40.3~~$13.2 million in revenue ~~for the first nine months of 2022,~~ along with ~~loosening~~a slowdown of ~~COVID-related restrictions~~momentum from the general macro-economic factors in the ~~markets.

Restructuring and impairment expenses

In the third quarter of 2022, we adopted a strategic plan to focus resources on our strategic priorities and optimize future growth and profitability. The global program includes workforce reductions and footprint optimization. We estimate total charges under the program will approximate ~~$35–$45~~$53.3 million, with ~~$30–$35~~$40.8 million in cash charges of severance and lease termination cost and ~~$9.9~~approximately $12.5 million of non-cash charges of impairment of fixed assets, acceleration of depreciation and other intangibles related to the footprint optimization. We expect to substantially complete the program during the first half of 2023. During the third ~~quarter~~and fourth quarters of 2022, we incurred charges to be settled in cash of ~~$17.2~~$20.1 million in severance charges, ~~$2.1~~$7.4 million in lease termination cost, and ~~$0.9~~$5.2 million in other associated cost, ~~with~~and non-cash charges of $8.2 million in fixed asset impairments, $0.9 million in accelerated depreciation and $1.7 million in impairment of other intangibles. During the first quarter of 2023 we incurred charges to be settled in cash of $4.0 million in severance charges, $1.9 million in lease termination cost, and $2.2 million in other associated cost, and non-cash charges of $1.7 million in accelerated depreciation.

Other ~~income (expense),~~expense, net ~~was $(8.7) million for the third quarter and $(18.8) million~~ for the first nine months of 2022, which included a $3.3 million and $9.0 million unrealized investment loss for the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, respectively, related to a controlled environment agriculture company we invested in as part of our previous Grow Tech segment. With our fourth quarter of ~~2021 exit from the Grow Tech segment, we are in the process of exiting this investment. Other income (expense), net was $2.8 million for the third quarter of 2021~~2023 and $0.4 million for the first nine months of 2021, which included a $18.1 million in unrealized equity investment income, partially offset by a $10.7 million loss on asset disposal, both of which did not recur in 2022.2022 remained constant at $1.5 million.

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. InHowever, in the first ~~nine~~three months of ~~2022,~~2023, we ~~generated $82.5~~had a net outflow of $22.1 million in cash from operations, compared to ~~$32.1~~$7.5 million in cash from operations during the prior-year period. The ~~increase~~decrease in cash flow from operations primarily reflects an approximate ~~$48.4~~$19.7 million ~~decline~~increase in inventory during the period, compared to ~~an increase~~a decrease in the prior year period, as we ~~continue~~begin to ~~work towards~~stage inventory for our ~~optimal inventory levels, and~~upcoming product launches. Our cash from operations was also impacted by lower net income in 2023, offset by a ~~decrease in accrued expenses from the 2022~~higher payout of ~~our fourth~~accruals in the first quarter of ~~2021 restructuring cost.~~2022, primarily from sales commissions. Cash and cash equivalents, including current investments, as of ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021~~2022 were ~~$308.0~~$246.7 million and ~~$354.8~~$278.5 million, respectively, with the decrease being driven by our quarterly dividend payments, capital expenditures, as discussed below, ~~our quarterly dividend payments, stock repurchases~~ and payment on liabilities associated with our ~~fourth quarter 2021 and third quarter of~~ 2022 ~~restructurings.~~restructuring plan, partially offset by borrowings on our revolving credit facility.

Working capital. As of ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, working capital was ~~$412.3~~$400.8 million, compared to ~~$343.3~~$400.6 million as of December 31, 2021. The increase in working capital is attributable to our second quarter debt modification, which resulted in a net $60.0 million of incremental borrowings, while shifting $100.0 million from current to long-term debt. Our working capital also benefited from a $17.5 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets primarily attributable to prepaid income tax, a $90.8 million reduction in accrued expenses from the first half of 2022 pay-out of restructuring cost, employee incentive accruals, and a decline in accrued commission from the decline in sales, all partially offset by a $72.5 million decrease in inventory.2022.

Capital expenditures. Capital expenditures for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 were ~~$45.3~~$11.5 million. We expect that our capital expenditures in ~~2022~~2023 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 ~~$75–95~~$55–75 million for ~~2022.~~2023. We are currently expecting to complete construction of the new manufacturing plant in Mainland China in the first half of 2023. As of ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we have spent approximately ~~$43.1~~$52.1 million on this project, including ~~$5.8~~$1.4 million in the first ~~nine months~~quarter of ~~2022~~2023 and expect that our expenditures for this project will total approximately ~~$52-57~~$54-56 million, including approximately ~~$15-20~~$3-5 million during ~~2022.~~2023.

Credit Agreement. On June 14, 2022, we entered into an 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 $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. Both facilities bear interest at the ~~SOFT,~~SOFR, plus a margin 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 subsequent years after the closing date of the Credit Agreement, with the remainder payable at final maturity. As of ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $30.0 million and $10.0 million of outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and ~~$397.5~~$392.5 million and $395.0 million on our term loan facility. The carrying value of the debt also reflects debt issuance costs of ~~$(2.7)~~$2.4 million and $2.5 million as of ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 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 ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we were in compliance with all debt covenants under the Credit Agreement.

~~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 ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, 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.

~~Table of Contents~~

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 ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2022,~~2023, we repurchased ~~approximately 1.0 million~~zero shares of our Class A common stock under the ~~plan for $40.0 million.~~plan. As of ~~September 30, 2022, $185.4~~March 31, 2023, $175.4 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 May and August 2022, our board of directors declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.385 per share. These quarterly cash dividends of $19.3 million, $19.4 million and $19.3 million was paid on March 9, 2022, June 8, 2022 and September 7, 2022 to stockholders of record on February 28, 2022, May 27, 2022 and August 26, 2022. In October 2022,2023, our board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of ~~$0.385~~$0.39 per share. This quarterly cash dividends of $19.4 million was paid on March 8, 2023 to stockholders of record on February 27, 2023. In April 2023, our board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.39 per share to be paid on ~~December~~June 7, ~~2022~~2023 to stockholders of record on ~~November 25, 2022.~~May 26, 2023. 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 ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, we held ~~$308.0~~$246.7 million and ~~$354.8~~$278.5 million, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents, including current investments. These amounts include ~~$221.9~~$211.4 million and ~~$274.9~~$223.0 million as of ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, 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 ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we had ~~$34.1~~$36.1 million in cash denominated in Chinese RMB. We also have experienced delays in repatriating cash from Argentina. As of ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, we had ~~$13.6~~$15.7 million and ~~$11.3~~$14.9 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.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There were no significant changes in our critical accounting policies or estimates during the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2022.~~2023.

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 in a market, we ~~may~~often 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~~sometimes generate significant activity and a high level of purchasing, which can result in a higher-than-normal increase in revenue, Sales Leaders, Paid Affiliates 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.

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 ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, 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- and nine-month~~three-month periods ended ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and ~~2021.~~2022.

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 ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 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 ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2023, and 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.

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 ~~September 30, 2022.~~March 31, 2023.

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 ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

There have been no material developments concerning the matters discussed in the “Legal Proceedings” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the ~~2021~~2022 fiscal year.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

~~The information presented below supplements and should be read~~There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in ~~conjunction with the detailed discussion of risks associated with our business in our recent SEC filings, including~~ our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the ~~2021~~2022 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, and further declined 39% from September 30, 2021 to September 30, 2022 due to continued pressures from COVID-related factors. 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 disruption to our sales force;

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

~~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 disruption 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.
