Herbalife Reports Fourth Quarter Reported Net Sales Growth of 4.6% and Reiterates Growth Projections for 2018
Herbalife Ltd. (NYSE: HLF) reports results for the fourth quarter and
full year ended December 31, 2017.
"After a year of transition, we returned to net sales growth in the
fourth quarter as expected, and we anticipate stronger net sales growth
for the full year in 2018," said Rich Goudis, CEO of Herbalife. "This
growth is due to the determination and hard work of our talented
independent distributors and employees around the globe who are
continuously looking for ways to fulfill our purpose to make the world
healthier and happier."
The Company reported fourth quarter 2017 volume points of 1.3 billion,
which represents a decline of 1.8%, compared to the prior year period,
in line with the pre-announcement issued on January 8, 2018. Reported
fourth quarter 2017 net sales of $1.1 billion increased 4.6%, while
constant currency net sales increased 3.4%, both compared to the same
period in 2016.
On a reported basis, fourth quarter 2017 net loss was $63.4 million, or
($0.87) per diluted share, which includes a provisional charge of $153.3
million, or ($2.01) per adjusted1 diluted share, related to
the Tax Act, compared to fourth quarter 2016 net income of $99.4
million, or $1.16 per diluted share. The provisional charge related to
the Tax Act is subject to continued evaluation and adjustment in future
periods as additional information becomes available and further analysis
is completed.
Adjusted2 earnings for the fourth quarter 2017 were $1.29 per
adjusted1 diluted share compared to $1.00 per diluted
share for the fourth quarter of 2016.
Full year 2017 worldwide volume points of 5.4 billion declined 3.6%
compared to full year 2016. Reported full year 2017 net sales of $4.4
billion decreased 1.4%, while constant currency net sales decreased
1.1%, both compared to full year 2016.
On a reported basis, full year 2017 net income was $213.9 million,
or $2.58 per diluted share, compared to net income of $260.0
million, or $3.02 per diluted share for 2016.
Adjusted2 earnings for 2017 were $4.86 per diluted share
compared to $4.85 per diluted share for 2016. Due to the negative impact
of currency, full year 2017 reported diluted EPS and adjusted2 diluted
EPS were each negatively impacted by $0.23.
Since the approval by the Company's Board of Directors in February 2017
of the share repurchase program, a total of approximately 11.7 million
shares were repurchased, including approximately 400,000 shares
repurchased from November 2, 2017 through February 21, 2018.
For the full year 2018, the Company is reiterating its volume point
guidance range of 2% to 6% growth as well as its 2018 reported and
adjusted2 diluted EPS guidance of $3.82 to $4.22 and $4.60 to
$5.00.
Furthermore, Herbalife announces, consistent with the Company's
succession strategy, a new executive organization structure effective
May 1, 2018.
The Company's president, Des Walsh, will transition to the new role of
executive vice-chairman where his 14 years of experience at the Company
will primarily be used in growing the business and developing and
maintaining strong relationships with the Company's distributor leaders
around the world.
Concurrently with Mr. Walsh's transition to his new role, two Company
veterans will each be promoted to serve as co-president of the Company,
each with separate but complementary responsibilities for leading the
Company forward.
John DeSimone, currently chief financial officer, will assume the role
of co-president and chief strategic officer where he will manage the
Company's regional leadership, who have responsibility for growing the
Company's nutrition business and driving performance in more than 90
countries around the globe. These will be new duties for Mr. DeSimone
who will continue to manage the Company's financial planning and
investor relations operations.
Chief health and nutrition officer, Dr. John Agwunobi, will continue in
his role leading the Company's nutrition and fitness training and
medical and consumer affairs. As co-president and chief health and
nutrition officer, Dr. Agwunobi will expand his responsibilities to
concentrate on enhancing the distributor and customer experience. This
new position will work intimately with our distributors and customers,
ensuring that the Company is continuously innovating in the areas of
corporate sales, technology, marketing and product development.
As part of this new organization structure, current senior vice
president and principal accounting officer, Bosco Chiu, having served
close to 25 years at the Company, will be promoted to executive vice
president and chief financial officer. In addition, current acting
general counsel Richard Werber will assume the new role of chief legal
officer while current senior vice president, deputy general counsel and
chief compliance officer Henry Wang will be promoted to executive vice
president and general counsel.

includes a projected currency benefit of approximately $0.10 per diluted
share versus the first quarter of 2017.
Full year 2018 adjusted2 diluted EPS guidance includes a
projected currency benefit of approximately $0.13 per diluted share,
compared to 2017, which is $0.03 favorable compared to the $0.10

provided on November 2, 2017.

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 following is a reconciliation of net income, presented and
reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles, to net income adjusted for certain items:

The following table is a reconciliation of diluted shares
outstanding, presented and reported in accordance with GAAP, to
diluted shares outstanding, adjusted for the impact of outstanding
equity awards. Outstanding equity awards were excluded from the
number of reported diluted outstanding shares for the fourth
quarter of 2017 because the Company reported a net loss for the
fourth quarter of 2017 and their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
However, because the company's adjusted net income for the fourth
quarter of 2017, as calculated in the table above, was positive,
inclusion of outstanding equity awards would not be anti-dilutive.
Therefore, the company has adjusted the diluted shares outstanding
for the fourth quarter of 2017 to include equity awards as set
forth below so the calculation of adjusted diluted EPS is not
overstated for the fourth quarter of 2017 and such number is
comparable to adjusted diluted EPS for the prior year period.

(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.
