Third Quarter Performance
For the third quarter of 2012, the Company reported consolidated revenue of $621.6 million, an increase of 15.5% over consolidated revenue of $538.0 million for the third quarter of 2011. Revenue increased in each of the Company’s segments: retail by 15.5%, franchise by 19.7%, and manufacturing/wholesale by 9.5%. Same store sales increased 9.8% in domestic company-owned stores (including GNC.com sales), representing the Company’s 29th consecutive quarter of positive same store sales growth. In domestic franchise locations, same store sales increased 14.3%.
Adjusted EBITDA, which the Company defines as net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, sponsor obligation payments, transaction related costs and executive severance, for the third quarter of 2012 was $124.2 million, a $29.6 million, or 31.2%, increase over adjusted EBITDA of $94.7 million for the third quarter of 2011. Adjusted EBITDA was 20.0% of revenue for the third quarter of 2012, compared to 17.6% for the third quarter of 2011.
For the third quarter of 2012, the Company reported net income of $62.2 million, compared to $48.7 million for the third quarter of 2011. Net income for the third quarter of 2012 included $0.9 million non-recurring expenses associated with the Offering completed during the quarter and the Incremental Term Loan. Excluding these expenses and the related tax impact, adjusted net income for the third quarter of 2012 was $63.2 million, a $14.1 million or 28.7% increase over adjusted net income of $49.1 million for the third quarter of 2011. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.61 for the third quarter of 2012, a 32.6% increase over adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.46 for the third quarter of 2011.
Business Update
Based on the success of the new Gold Card Member Pricing test markets, the Company has expanded this program to four additional markets, including New York City and Chicago. The program evolves Gold Card from a fixed 20% discount the first week of each month to an everyday variable discount Member Pricing model.
The Company is once again partnering with Peter Arnell, who successfully helped to elevate the GNC brand through the LiveWell campaign. The collaboration with Mr. Arnell will include a comprehensive new, integrated campaign across all mediums, and is expected to launch in early 2013.
Joe Fortunato, Chairman, President & CEO, said, “I am enthusiastic that GNC can deliver sustainable top and bottom line growth. We drive into the future with substantial momentum, fueled by an expanding customer base, an improved Member Pricing program, a simplified pricing strategy, an overhauled marketing program, and a comprehensive product development pipeline.”
Third Quarter Segment Operating Performance
For the third quarter of 2012, retail segment revenue grew 15.5% to $445.0 million, compared to $385.2 million for the third quarter of 2011, driven primarily by a 9.8% domestic company-owned same store sales increase, including 20.9% growth in GNC.com revenue, the addition of LuckyVitamin.com (acquired August 31, 2011) and 155 net new stores from the end of the third quarter of 2011. Operating income increased by 38.8%, from $62.2 million to $86.3 million, and was 19.4% of segment revenue for the third quarter 2012, compared to 16.1% for the third quarter of 2011. The increase in operating income percentage was driven by higher gross margin, and expense leverage on the same store sales increase in occupancy and payroll.
For the third quarter of 2012, franchise segment revenue grew 19.7% to $108.8 million, compared to $90.9 million for the third quarter of 2011, driven primarily by increased wholesale product sales and royalty income in both domestic and international franchise operations. Operating income increased 13.5%, from $32.0 million to $36.3 million, and was 33.4% of segment revenue for the third quarter of 2012, compared to 35.2% for the third quarter of 2011. The decline in operating income percentage was driven by a higher revenue contribution from wholesale product sales compared with higher margin fees and royalties.
For the third quarter of 2012, manufacturing/wholesale segment revenue, excluding intersegment revenue, grew 9.5% to $67.8 million, compared to $61.9 million for the third quarter of 2011, driven primarily by an increase in wholesale sales. Operating income increased 13.1% from $23.4 million to $26.5 million and was 39.0% of segment revenue for the third quarter of 2012 compared to 37.8% for the third quarter of 2011. The increase in operating income percentage was driven by an increase in proprietary product sales.
Total operating income for the third quarter of 2012 was $111.2 million, a $28.6 million, or 34.6%, increase over operating income of $82.6 million for the third quarter of 2011. Third quarter operating income included $0.9 million and $0.6 million in 2012 and 2011, respectively, of non-recurring costs related to the Offerings and Incremental Term Loan.
In the third quarter of 2012, the Company opened 36 net new domestic company-owned stores, 60 net new international franchise locations, 11 net new Rite Aid franchise store-within-a-store locations, 2 net new domestic franchise locations, and 1 net new company-owned store in Canada.

Current 2012 Outlook
The Company’s current outlook for 2012 is based on current expectations and includes “forward looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Below is the Company’s current outlook for 2012, which is being revised since the Company last provided its outlook for 2012 on July 26, 2012:
· Consolidated revenue of approximately $2.45 billion for the full year 2012, an 18.0% increase over 2011 consolidated revenue of $2.07 billion. This is based on achieving an increase of approximately 11.5% in domestic company-owned same store sales for the full year 2012, including the impact of GNC.com. This compares to the Company’s previous outlook of an increase of approximately 17.5% in consolidated revenue.
· Consolidated adjusted earnings per diluted share (“Adjusted EPS”) of approximately $2.29 for the full year 2012, a 50.7% increase over 2011 Adjusted EPS of $1.52. This compares to the Company’s previous outlook of approximately $2.21. The current outlook includes an EPS impact of up to approximately 3¢ associated with gross margin dollar investment and marketing spend in support of the expansion of the Gold Card Member Pricing program to four additional markets including New York City and Chicago. The current outlook does not include any potential EPS impact as a result of Hurricane Sandy.
· A diluted share count of approximately 105 million for the full year 2012.

Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of terminology such as “subject to,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” “intends,” “estimates,” “projects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “can,” the negatives thereof, variations thereon and similar expressions, or by discussions of strategy and outlook.

Management has included non-GAAP financial measures in this press release because it believes they represent an effective supplemental means by which to measure the Company’s operating performance. The Company uses adjusted EBITDA to evaluate its performance relative to its competitors and also as a measurement for the calculation of management incentive compensation. Management also believes that adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are useful to investors as they enable the Company and its investors to evaluate and compare the Company’s results from operations in a more meaningful and consistent manner by excluding specific items which are not reflective of ongoing operating results. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are not measurements of the Company’s financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating income, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to GAAP cash flow from operating activities, as a measure of the Company’s profitability or liquidity.
