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, a leading global direct selling company, being the primary operating unit.  Nu Skin develops and distributes premium-quality, innovative personal care products 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—Mainland China; South Korea; Southeast Asia, which includes Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam; Americas/Pacific, which includes Australia, Canada, Latin America, New Zealand and the United States; Japan; Hong Kong/Taiwan, which also includes Macau; and Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”), which includes several markets in Europe as well as Israel, Russia and South Africa—its Manufacturing segment, which includes manufacturing and packaging subsidiaries; and its Grow Tech segment, which focuses on developing controlled-environment agriculture technologies (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 June 30, 2020, and for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. 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, 2019 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, 2019.   Additionally, based on the duration and severity of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, including but not limited to limitations of holding sales meetings, supply chain disruptions, reduced travel and closed walk-in locations, the Company remains uncertain of the ultimate impact COVID-19 could have on the business. To date, the pandemic has not increased the Company’s costs of or access to capital under the revolving credit facility, and at this time the Company cannot provide assurance it will not in the future. This uncertainty could have an impact in future periods on certain estimates used in the preparation of the second quarter financial results, including, but not limited to impairment of goodwill and other long-lived assets, income tax provision and recoverability of inventory.

Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This guidance modifies the measurement of expected credit losses of certain financial instruments. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those annual periods and should be applied on a modified retrospective basis to all periods presented. This ASU was effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2020. The adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. This guidance modifies, removes, and adds certain disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods therein, and early adoption is permitted.  This ASU was effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2020. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Topic 350): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service Contract. This new guidance aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. Early adoption is permitted. This ASU was effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2020. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

4. Debt

Credit Agreement

On April 18, 2018, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with several financial institutions as lenders and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement provides for a $400 million term loan facility and a $350 million revolving credit facility, each with a term of five years. Both facilities bear interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), plus a margin based on the consolidated leverage ratio. The term loan facility amortizes 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 Credit Agreement, with the remainder payable at final maturity. The Credit Agreement requires 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. As of June 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement.

8

The following table summarizes the Company’s debt facilities as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

Facility or Arrangement	Original Principal Amount		Balance as of June 30, 2020(1)(2)		Balance as of December 31, 2019(2)		Interest Rate	Repayment Terms
Credit Agreement term loan facility	$	400.0 million	$	352.5 million	$	365.0 million	Variable 30 day: 2.43%	35% of the principal amount is payable in increasing quarterly installments over a five-year period that began on June 30, 2018, with the remainder payable at the end of the five-year term.
Credit Agreement revolving credit facility			$	65.0 million	$	—	Variable 30 day: 2.43%	Revolving line of credit expires April 18, 2023.

(1) As of June 30, 2020, the current portion of the Company’s debt (i.e. becoming due in the next 12 months) included $30.0 million of the balance of its term loan under the Credit Agreement. The Company has classified the $65.0 million borrowed under the revolving line of credit as short term because it is the Company’s intention to use the line of credit to borrow and pay back funds over short periods of time.

(2) The carrying value of the debt reflects the amounts stated in the above table less debt issuance costs of $2.6 million and $3.0 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, related to the Credit Agreement, which are not reflected in this table.

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 periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, stock options of 0.9 million and 1.1 million, respectively, and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, stock options of 1.0 million and 1.1 million, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.

Dividends

In February and April 2020, the Company’s board of directors declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.375 per share. These quarterly cash dividends of $20.7 million and $19.4 million were paid on March 11, 2020 and June 10, 2020 to stockholders of record on February 28, 2020 and May 29, 2020. In July 2020, the Company’s board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.375 per share to be paid on September 9, 2020 to stockholders of record on August 28, 2020.

Repurchase of common stock

During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company repurchased 1.7 million shares and zero, of its Class A common stock under its stock repurchase plan for $46.5 million and zero respectively. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company repurchased 4.4 million shares and 14,000 shares of its Class A common stock under its stock repurchase plan for $107.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2020, $362.8 million was available for repurchases under the Company’s stock repurchase plan.

7. 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.  Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information.

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;

◾ Level 3 – unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assumptions.

10

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 measured at fair value on a recurring basis (U.S. dollars in thousands):

	Fair Value at June 30, 2020
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total

8. Income Taxes

Provision for income taxes for the three- and six-month periods of 2020 was $17.8 million and $28.5 million, compared to $24.5 million and $47.3 million for the prior-year periods. The effective tax rates for the three- and six-month periods were 29.8% and 31.6% of pre-tax income compared to 34.6% and 34.6% in the prior-year periods.

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 $20.3 million and $20.0 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 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, 2019. If the amount designated as indefinitely reinvested as of December 31, 2019 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.

11

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and in various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to tax examinations from the IRS for all years for which tax returns have been filed before 2019. With a few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state and local income tax examination by tax authorities for the years before 2016. 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. The Company has elected to participate in CAP for 2020 and may elect to continue participating in CAP for future tax years; the Company may withdraw from the program at any time. In major foreign jurisdictions, the Company is generally no longer subject to income tax examinations for years before 2012. However, statutes of limitations in certain countries 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 decrease in the next 12 months by approximately $1.3 to $2.3 million.

9. Segment Information

The Company reports revenue from nine segments, consisting of its seven geographic Nu Skin segments—Mainland China, Americas/Pacific, South Korea, Southeast Asia, Japan, EMEA, and Hong Kong/Taiwan—and its Manufacturing and Grow Tech segments. The Other category includes miscellaneous corporate revenue and related adjustments. 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.

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.

10. 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.

11. Restructuring

In the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company began a strategic plan to align its resources and capabilities to support its vision of being a world-leading business platform. This program primarily impacted the Company’s information technology infrastructure and organization and other departments within its corporate and Americas offices. As a result of the restructuring program, the Company recorded a non-cash charge of $48.6 million for impairment of information technology assets, including internally developed software for social sharing and digital initiatives, and $22.1 million of cash charges, including $20.1 million for employee severance and $2.0 million for other related cash charges with the restructuring. The restructuring charges were predominately recorded in the Corporate and Other category.

See the table below for detail of restructuring activity for the three months ended March 31, 2019 (U.S. dollars in thousands):

For a summary of these risks, see the risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 2019 fiscal year and in our subsequent quarterly and other reports, including this Quarterly Report.

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes and Management’s Discussion and Analysis included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 2019 fiscal year, and our other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission through the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

Revenue for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 decreased 2% to $612.4 million, compared to $623.5 million in the prior-year period, and revenue for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 decreased 9% to $1.1 billion, compared to $1.2 billion in the prior-year period. Sales Leaders decreased 9% and Customers increased 29% on a year-over-year basis.

The declines in revenue for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 were largely driven by a continuation of the decline we experienced toward the second half of 2019 and the impact of COVID-19 on the first quarter of 2020. The decline in Sales Leaders was primarily due to the drop in Sales Leaders in Greater China precipitated in 2019 and was further impacted by the outbreak of COVID-19 and the related government-imposed restrictions and public hesitance regarding in-person gatherings. While it is difficult to project the ongoing impact from COVID-19 for the remainder of the year, during the second quarter, the pandemic particularly impacted our Southeast Asia and South Korea segments. Through our new technology and digital offerings along with effective customer initiatives, we were able to increase our Customers by 29%. During the second quarter, our results were positively impacted by significant growth in our Americas/Pacific and EMEA markets of 38% and 17%, as discussed below. Our East markets’ primary business method is more reliant on in-person meetings, the West, through strong sales leadership was able to adapt to a more digital- and social-focused business, resulting in a different impact from COVID-19. We are optimistic about the second half of 2020, as we remain focused on building Sales Leaders by leveraging our technology enhancements and executing a strong product launch of a new beauty device that we plan to introduce in the fourth quarter.  The launch of the ageLOC Boost will follow the same approach as our 2017-2018 launch of ageLOC LumiSpa. We plan to introduce the product in the second half of the year, primarily the fourth quarter, and then continue the launch process for this product across most of our segments during the first half of 2021.

Earnings per share for the second quarter of 2020 decreased 2% to $0.81, compared to $0.83 in the prior-year period. Earnings per share for the first six months of 2020 decreased 28% to $1.15, compared to $1.59 in the prior-year period. The slight decrease in earnings per share for the quarter is primarily driven by the decline in revenue. Increases in freight cost, selling expenses and general and administrative expenses were offset by a lower weighted-average outstanding shares from our stock repurchases and a lower tax rate.  The decrease in earnings per share for the six-month period reflects the same factors, along with impacts from the first quarter, when our general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue were relatively higher due to the fixed nature of these expenses against our lower first-quarter revenue.

Segment Results

We report our business in nine segments to reflect our current management approach. These segments consist of our seven geographic Nu Skin segments—Mainland China, Americas/Pacific, South Korea, Southeast Asia, Japan, Hong Kong/Taiwan, and EMEA—and our Manufacturing and Grow Tech segments. The Other category includes miscellaneous corporate revenue and related adjustments.

The following table provides information concerning the number of Customers and Sales Leaders as of June 30, 2020 and 2019.  “Customers” are persons who have purchased products directly from the Company during the three months ended as of the date indicated. Our Customer numbers do not include consumers who purchase products directly from members of our sales force. “Sales Leaders” are independent distributors, and sales employees and independent marketers in Mainland China, who achieve certain qualification requirements. Our Velocity sales compensation program enhancements, which we introduced in all of our markets outside Mainland China from the fourth quarter of 2017 through the first half of 2019, included adjustments to the requirements for qualifying for and maintaining Sales Leader status. These adjustments have impacted the number of independent distributors who achieve such requirements under Velocity. For example, the sales volume necessary to achieve initial qualification has been increased in some markets, financial rewards have been increased for higher monthly sales productivity, and qualification requirements to maintain and advance status have been modified. The enhanced program also provides some flexibility to remain a Sales Leader with a lower sales volume for a short time. Mainland China operates under a different business model and was not impacted by these changes.

Following is a narrative discussion of our results in each segment, which supplements the tables above.

Mainland China. During the second quarter of 2020, we began to see sequential stabilization following the 2019 contraction of our business in the Mainland China market, compounded by the impact of COVID-19 and the related public-health restrictions, which severely limited in-person meetings in the first quarter of 2020. As a result of the foregoing issues, revenue and Sales Leaders declined for the second quarter and first six months of 2020 on a year-over-year basis, but had a slight uptick on a sequential basis.  Our reported revenue also reflects a negative impact of 3% from foreign-currency fluctuations for both the second quarter and first half of 2020. Our Customers increased 42% from successful customer initiatives, including the second quarter launch of a new loyalty program.

The year-over-year decrease in segment contribution for the second quarter is primarily attributable to the decline in revenue, partially offset by a 2.0 percentage point increase in gross margin, a 2.8 percentage point decrease in selling expense as a percentage of revenue and a $2.3 million decrease in general and administrative expense. The decrease in segment contribution for the first half of 2020 is attributable to the decline in revenue, with improvements in gross margin and decreased selling expenses.

Americas/Pacific. Successful digital tools and strong social sharing in the market contributed to a 38% increase in revenue for the second quarter and a 13% increase for the first half of 2020. The social and digital transformation as well as strong sales leadership in social sharing in these markets have enabled our sales force to more effectively transact business digitally, which has been beneficial to our business during the COVID-19 pandemic. This has led to a significant increase in Customers as well as Sales Leaders. As disclosed above, our Customer number includes only customers who purchase directly from the Company.  A portion of the increase in Customers may reflect a shift from reselling to assisting customers purchase products directly from the Company. Our reported revenue also reflects a negative impact of 10% and 8% from foreign-currency fluctuations for the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, primarily due to the weakening Argentina peso. In our U.S. market, we are planning to preview our new Nutricentials Bioadaptive Skin Care product line in the fourth quarter of 2020 and to make it generally available for purchase in the first quarter of 2021. In our U.S. market, we plan to introduce and launch the ageLOC Boost during 2021.

The year-over-year increase in segment contribution for the second quarter and first half of 2020 primarily reflects the increase in revenue, partially offset by a lower gross margin, partially attributable to product mix due to a higher shift to devices along with an increase in freight. Additionally, general and administrative expenses increased for the second quarter of 2020, due to higher labor cost, partially offset by a decrease in sales force events due to COVID-19 restrictions.

South Korea. Our business in the South Korea segment continued to be challenged in the second quarter and first half of 2020 from the COVID-19 outbreak. As previously disclosed, we continue to anticipate a longer negative impact from COVID in this market.  Our reported revenue also reflects a negative impact of 4% from foreign-currency fluctuations for both the second quarter and first half of 2020.

The decrease in segment contribution for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 is primarily attributable to the decrease in revenue, partially offset by a slight improvement in gross margin.

Southeast Asia. Our Southeast Asia segment continued to be challenged in the second quarter and first half of 2020 from the COVID-19 outbreak.  We continue to anticipate a longer negative impact from COVID-19 as most of the Southeast Asia markets remain in lockdown status. The increase in Customers was primarily driven by successful customer initiatives.

For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the decrease in segment contribution is largely attributed to the decline in revenue, along with a 2.3 percentage point decrease in gross margin.  The decrease in segment contribution for the first half of 2020 is primarily from the decline in revenue.

17

Japan. Our Japan segment continues to show signs of stabilization, resulting in 2% constant-currency revenue growth for the second quarter of 2020, with a 3% benefit from favorable foreign-currency fluctuations.

For the second quarter of 2020, segment contribution increased due to improved revenue partially offset by a slight increase in selling expenses. For the first half of 2020, segment contribution increased from successful general and administrative cost-saving measures and improved revenue.

EMEA. Our EMEA segment had a strong quarter, benefiting from our technology offerings enabling strong social sharing, resulting in increases in revenue, Sales Leaders and Customers. Similar to our Americas/Pacific segment, the strong sales leadership in social sharing has allowed the EMEA segment to more effectively transact business digitally, which has been beneficial to our business during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our reported revenue also reflects a negative impact of 4% and 3% from foreign-currency fluctuations for the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively. In our EMEA segment, we are planning to preview our new Nutricentials Bioadaptive Skin Care product line in the fourth quarter of 2020 and to make it generally available for purchase in the first quarter of 2021. In our EMEA segment, we plan to introduce and launch the ageLOC Boost during 2021.

The changes in segment contribution for both periods presented, were due to lower gross margin from higher freight cost and increases in selling expenses driven by the rapid growth in the business.

Hong Kong/Taiwan. Our Hong Kong/Taiwan segment continues to be challenged from the ongoing decline from 2019 and further impacted by the social incidents in Hong Kong and COVD-19, with declines in revenue, Sales Leaders and Customers for both periods presented.

The decrease in segment contribution for the second quarter and first half of 2020 resulted primarily from the decline in revenue.

Manufacturing. Despite the continued supply chain challenges in obtaining certain ingredients and packaging materials during the second quarter, we were able to generate a 20% year-over-year increase in revenue for the second quarter of 2020 and a 7% increase for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020. Our previous investment in additional capacity has allowed our manufacturing companies to continue to increase revenue. These companies provide products and services both to our Nu Skin business and to external customers. Reported revenue includes only the revenue generated by sales to external customers.

The $2.0 million and $1.2 million improvements in segment contribution for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020, respectively, reflect revenue increases and improved gross margin.

Grow Tech. Our Grow Tech segment continues to invest in controlled-environment agriculture technologies. We have found that some of this technology has broader applications in agriculture, and we are investing to pursue these potential opportunities. We are expecting continued losses in 2020 from this segment as we continue to research and refine the technology.

Consolidated Results

Revenue

Revenue for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 decreased 2% to $612.4 million, compared to $623.5 million in the prior-year period. Revenue for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 decreased 9% to $1.1 billion, compared to $1.2 billion in the prior-year period. For a discussion and analysis of these decreases in revenue, see “Overview” and “Segment Results,” above.

Gross profit

Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 74.8% for the second quarter of 2020, compared to 75.3% for the prior-year period, and 75.2% for the first six months of 2020, compared to 75.9% for the prior-year period.  Gross profit as a percentage of revenue for core Nu Skin decreased 0.2 percentage points to 77.6% for the second quarter of 2020 and decreased 0.4 percentage points to 77.8% for the first six months of 2020.  Our gross profit was negatively impacted by higher freight cost during the second quarter and first half of 2020 due to express orders to meet higher demand as well as COVID-19.

Selling expenses

Selling expenses as a percentage of revenue were 40.6% for the second quarter of 2020, compared to 39.4% for the prior-year period, and 40.2% for the first six months of 2020, compared to 39.7% for the prior-year period. Selling expenses for our core Nu Skin business are driven by the specific performance of our individual Sales Leaders. Given the size of our sales force and the various components of our compensation and incentive programs, selling expenses as a percentage of revenue typically fluctuate plus or minus approximately 100 basis points from period to period.  For the second quarter and first six months of 2020, core Nu Skin selling expenses as a percentage of revenue increased 1.8 percentage points and increased 0.9 percentage points to 43.3% and 42.7%, respectively.  The increase in core Nu Skin selling expenses is partially driven by the strong sequential revenue growth, which resulted in Sales Leaders achieving larger volumes, resulting in a higher commission percentage. This was partially offset by the impact of the increase in revenue from our Manufacturing segment, which does not carry significant selling expenses and therefore lowered consolidated selling expenses.

18

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue increased to 24.7% for the second quarter of 2020, from 24.0% for the prior-year period, and to 26.6% for the first six months of 2020, from 24.7% for the prior-year period. General and administrative expenses increased to $151.6 million in the second quarter of 2020 and decreased to $301.2 million in the first six months of 2020, compared to $149.4 million and $308.0 million in the respective prior-year periods. General and administrative expenses remained largely flat for the presented periods with an increase in labor expenses and decreases in travel and sales force events as a result of the COVID-19 restrictions that were in place.

Other income (expense), net

Other income (expense), net was $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to ($3.3) million for the prior-year period, and ($4.6) million for the first six months of 2020 compared to ($6.2) million for the prior-year period. The decrease in expense for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 primarily relates to a lower interest expense due to a decreased interest rate.  Additionally, for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 we benefited from foreign-currency fluctuations.

Provision for income taxes

Provision for income taxes for the three- and six-month periods of 2020 was $17.8 million and $28.5 million, compared to $24.5 million and $47.3 million for the prior-year periods. The effective tax rates for the three- and six-month periods were 29.8% and 31.6% of pre-tax income compared to 34.6% and 34.6% in the prior-year periods. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2020 primarily reflects the strong growth in the U.S. market and Manufacturing segment, which enabled us, to utilize additional foreign tax credits to offset the U.S. income taxes.

On March 27, 2020, the CARES Act was signed into law, which, among other things, includes provisions relating to net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, and modifications to the net interest deduction limitations. We have assessed the impact of this new legislation and, at present, do not expect it to have a material impact on our 2020 effective tax rate.

Net income

As a result of the foregoing factors, net income for the second quarter of 2020 was $41.9 million, compared to $46.3 million in the prior-year period. Net income for the first six months of 2020 was $61.6 million, compared to $89.4 million for the first six months of 2019.

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, debt repayment and the development of operations in new markets. 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. In the first six months of 2020, we generated $166.1 million in cash from operations, compared to $74.5 million in cash from operations during the prior-year period. The increase in cash flow from operations reflects continued improvements in inventory management and other cost saving initiatives implemented by our markets, along with higher payout of accruals in the first quarter of 2019, mainly attributable to severance pay-out, along with a decrease in cash outflows in 2020, due to higher commission accrual that will be paid out in the third quarter of 2020.  Cash and cash equivalents, including current investments, as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were $386.3 million and $344.0 million, respectively, driven by the positive cash flow from operations, partially offset by dividend payments and stock repurchases.

Working capital. As of June 30, 2020, working capital was $301.2 million, compared to $383.4 million as of December 31, 2019. The decrease in working capital is primarily attributable to a $65.0 million increase in borrowings under our revolving credit facility during the first quarter to fund our stock repurchases and other expenses for operations.  The decline in working capital also reflects a decrease in inventory as we continue to optimize our inventory balance, an increase in accrued commission from the increases sales during the end of the quarter, deferred revenue and accrued bonus, partially offset by the increase in cash and accounts receivable from timing of sales.

19

Capital expenditures. Capital expenditures for the first six months of 2020 were $28.7 million. Our 2020 capital expenditures include the following:

● the expansion and upgrade of our facilities and equipment;

● purchases and expenditures for computer systems and equipment, software, and application development; and

● purchases of equipment and development of our technology in our Grow Tech initiative.

We estimate that capital expenditures for the uses listed above will total approximately $65-70 million for 2020. In addition, we are also in the building phase for a new manufacturing plant in Mainland China.  To date we have spent approximately $13.3 million and expect that our expenditures for this project will total approximately $55 million over the next 2-3 years, including approximately $15-18 million during 2020.

Credit Agreement. In April 2018, we entered into a 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 $350.0 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, and the outstanding balance on the Convertible Notes. The interest rate applicable to the facilities is subject to adjustments based on our consolidated leverage ratio. The term loan facility amortizes 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 Credit Agreement, with the remainder payable at final maturity. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 respectively, we had outstanding borrowings of $65.0 million and zero under our revolving credit facility, and $352.5 and $365.0 remaining balance on our term loan facility. The carrying value of the debt also reflects debt issuance costs of ($2.6) million and ($3.0) million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 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. We are currently in compliance with all debt covenants under the Credit Agreement.

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 first half of 2020, we repurchased approximately 4.4 million shares of our Class A common stock under the plan for $107.4 million. As of June 30, 2020, $362.8 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 and April 2020, our board of directors declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.375 per share. These quarterly cash dividends of $20.7 million and $19.4 million were paid on March 11, 2020 and June 10, 2020 to stockholders of record on February 28, 2020 and May 29, 2020. In July 2020, our board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.375 per share to be paid on September 9, 2020 to stockholders of record on August 28, 2020. 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 June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we held $386.3 million and $344.0 million, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents, including current investments. These amounts include $312.8 million and $277.9 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 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 June 30, 2020, we had $88.2 million in cash denominated in Chinese RMB. We also have intercompany loan arrangements with 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.

20

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.

Contingent Liabilities

Please refer to Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report for information regarding our contingent liabilities.

Critical Accounting Policies

There were no significant changes in our critical accounting policies during the second quarter of 2020.

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, we may 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 generate significant activity and a high level of purchasing, which can result in a higher-than-normal increase in revenue, Sales Leaders and/or Customers during the quarter and can skew year-over-year and sequential comparisons.

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 June 30, 2020, 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 six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

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 June 30, 2020 and 2019, we did not hold non-designated mark-to-market forward derivative contracts to hedge foreign denominated intercompany positions or third party foreign debt. As of June 30, 2020, and 2019 we did not hold any forward contracts designated as foreign currency cash flow hedges. We continue to evaluate our foreign currency hedging policy.

21

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.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

There have been no material developments concerning the matters discussed in the “Legal Proceedings” sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 2019 fiscal year and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 2020. Please refer to Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements contained in this report for certain information regarding our legal proceedings.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The information presented below supplements and should be read 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 2019 fiscal year and subsequent reports.

If we are unable to effectively manage our growth in certain markets, our operations could be harmed.

At times, we can experience significant growth in one or more of our markets. For example, during the second quarter of 2020 we experienced significant growth in some of the markets in our Americas/Pacific and EMEA segments. Growth can strain our ability to effectively manage our operations, as it requires us to expand our management team, labor force, and manufacturing operations. Insufficient management execution to support growth could result in, among other things, product delays or shortages, operating mistakes and errors, inadequate customer service, inappropriate claims or promotions by our sales force, and governmental inquires and investigations, all of which could harm our revenue and ability to generate sustained growth and result in unanticipated expenses. In addition, we need to continue to attract and develop qualified management personnel to sustain growth. If we are not able to successfully retain existing personnel and identify, hire and integrate new personnel, our business and growth prospects could be harmed.

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;

● 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 year. 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.

Cyber security risks and the failure to maintain the integrity of company, employee, sales force or guest data could expose us to data loss, litigation, liability and harm to our reputation.

We collect, store and transmit large volumes of company, employee, sales force and guest data, including payment card information, personally identifiable information and other personal information, for business purposes, including for transactional and promotional purposes, and our various information technology systems enter, process, summarize and report such data. The integrity and protection of this data is critical to our business.

23

We are subject to significant security and privacy regulations, as well as requirements imposed by the payment card industry. For example, during 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation went into effect in the European Union, imposing increased data protection regulations, the violation of which could result in fines of up to 4% of our annual revenue. Many other jurisdictions have similarly enacted security and privacy regulations, including California and Mainland China, and we believe this trend will continue. In the United States, congressional committees have held preliminary hearings about the advisability of a federal data privacy law, but it is uncertain whether the federal government will adopt such a law and whether it would preempt state data privacy laws. The prospect of new data privacy laws and ambiguity regarding the interpretation of existing laws has resulted in significant uncertainty and compliance costs. In addition to laws specifically governing privacy and data security, in some cases, federal and state regulators and state attorneys general and administrative agencies have interpreted more general consumer protection laws to impose standards for the online collection, use, dissemination and security of data. Although we monitor regulatory developments in this area, any actual or perceived failure by us to comply with these requirements could subject us to significant penalties, lawsuits and negative publicity and require changes to our business practices. In particular, maintaining compliance with these and other evolving regulations and requirements around the world often requires changes to our information system architecture and data storage processes. Making these changes is, and will likely continue to be, difficult and expensive. Investigations by the regulators of data security laws could also result in the payment of fines and harm our reputation. Private actions by affected individuals could also result in significant monetary or reputational damage.

Similarly, a failure to adhere to the payment card industry’s data security standards could cause us to incur penalties from payment card associations, termination of our ability to accept credit or debit card payments, litigation and adverse publicity, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

In addition, a penetrated or compromised data system or the intentional, inadvertent or negligent release, misuse or disclosure of data could result in theft, loss, or fraudulent or unlawful use of company, employee, sales force or guest data. Although we take measures to protect the security, integrity and confidentiality of our data systems, we experience cyber attacks of varying degrees and types on a regular basis. Our infrastructure may be vulnerable to these attacks, and in some cases it could take time to discover them. Our security measures may also be breached due to employee error or malfeasance, system errors or otherwise. This risk is heightened as a result of the current COVID-19 pandemic as many of our employees are working remotely. Additionally, outside parties may attempt to fraudulently induce employees, users, or customers to disclose sensitive information to gain access to our data or our users’ or customers’ data. Any such breach or unauthorized access could result in the unauthorized disclosure, misuse or loss of sensitive information and lead to significant legal and financial exposure, regulatory inquiries or investigations, loss of confidence by our sales force and customers, disruption of our operations, damage to our reputation, and costs associated with remediating the incident. These risks are heightened as we work with third-party partners, including providers of mobile and cloud technologies, and as our sales force uses social media, as the partners and social media platforms could be vulnerable to the same types of breaches. Acquisition activity, which we have engaged in and which we may continue to engage in, may also heighten these risks, as the systems of the companies we acquire are not under our control prior to the acquisitions and it may take time to evaluate these systems and implement appropriate modifications to them.

Epidemics, including the recent outbreak of COVID-19, and other crises have and will likely continue to negatively impact our business.

Due to the person-to-person nature of direct selling, our results of operations have been, and will likely continue to be, harmed if the fear of a communicable and rapidly spreading disease or other crises such as natural disasters result in travel restrictions or cause people to avoid group meetings or gatherings or interaction with other people. It is difficult to predict the impact on our business, if any, of the emergence of new epidemics or other crises. The outbreak of COVID-19 and resulting pandemic have resulted in significant contraction of economies around the world and interrupted global supply chains as many governments have issued stay-at-home orders to combat COVID-19. Government-imposed restrictions and public hesitance regarding in-person gatherings, travel and visiting public places have reduced our sales force’s ability to hold sales meetings, resulted in cancellations of key sales leader events and incentive trips, and required us to temporarily close our walk-in and fulfillment locations in certain markets where we have such properties. The outbreak has also impacted our ability to obtain some components and ship products in some markets. Our supply chain has incurred some interruptions to date, and we could experience more significant interruptions or face more significant closures in the future. These factors and other events related to COVID-19 have negatively impacted our sales and operations and will likely continue to negatively affect our business and our financial results. The COVID-19 situation is changing rapidly, and there is much uncertainty regarding its duration and future impacts.

Any significant decline in our operating results in the future could also adversely affect our financial position and liquidity. Under the terms of our existing credit facility, we are required to maintain certain interest coverage and leverage ratios. In addition, our outstanding borrowings under our credit facility and related term loan impose debt service and amortization requirements. A significant deterioration in our results of operations  in the future as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic could impact our ability to comply with our financial covenants and debt service and amortization obligations, which could result in an event of default under the terms of our credit facility. An event of default under our credit facility could result in an inability to access funding under the agreement and the acceleration of our obligations, which would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and liquidity.

24

In addition, regulatory authorities closely scrutinize the product- and earnings-related claims made by direct-selling companies and their independent distributors, including claims related to the COVID-19 pandemic. For example, since April 2020, the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) has issued letters that have warned several direct-selling companies to remove and address claims that they or their distributors were making about their products’ ability to treat or prevent COVID-19 and/or about the earnings that people who have recently lost income could make. Although we take steps to educate our distributors on proper claims, if our distributors make improper claims, or if regulators determine we are making any improper claims, this could lead to an FTC investigation and could harm our business and reputation.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

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 June 30, 2020, and for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. 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, 2019 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, 2019.   Additionally, based on the duration and severity of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, including but not limited to limitations of holding sales meetings, supply chain disruptions, reduced travel and closed walk-in locations, the Company remains uncertain of the ultimate impact COVID-19 could have on the business. To date, the pandemic has not increased the Company’s costs of or access to capital under the revolving credit facility, and at this time the Company cannot provide assurance it will not in the future. This uncertainty could have an impact in future periods on certain estimates used in the preparation of the second quarter financial results, including, but not limited to impairment of goodwill and other long-lived assets, income tax provision and recoverability of inventory.

Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This guidance modifies the measurement of expected credit losses of certain financial instruments. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those annual periods and should be applied on a modified retrospective basis to all periods presented. This ASU was effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2020. The adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. This guidance modifies, removes, and adds certain disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods therein, and early adoption is permitted.  This ASU was effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2020. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Topic 350): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service Contract. This new guidance aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. Early adoption is permitted. This ASU was effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2020. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Credit Agreement

On April 18, 2018, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with several financial institutions as lenders and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement provides for a $400 million term loan facility and a $350 million revolving credit facility, each with a term of five years. Both facilities bear interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), plus a margin based on the consolidated leverage ratio. The term loan facility amortizes 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 Credit Agreement, with the remainder payable at final maturity. The Credit Agreement requires 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. As of June 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement.

The following table summarizes the Company’s debt facilities as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

Facility or Arrangement	Original Principal Amount		Balance as of June 30, 2020(1)(2)		Balance as of December 31, 2019(2)		Interest Rate	Repayment Terms
Credit Agreement term loan facility	$	400.0 million	$	352.5 million	$	365.0 million	Variable 30 day: 2.43%	35% of the principal amount is payable in increasing quarterly installments over a five-year period that began on June 30, 2018, with the remainder payable at the end of the five-year term.
Credit Agreement revolving credit facility			$	65.0 million	$	—	Variable 30 day: 2.43%	Revolving line of credit expires April 18, 2023.

(1) As of June 30, 2020, the current portion of the Company’s debt (i.e. becoming due in the next 12 months) included $30.0 million of the balance of its term loan under the Credit Agreement. The Company has classified the $65.0 million borrowed under the revolving line of credit as short term because it is the Company’s intention to use the line of credit to borrow and pay back funds over short periods of time.

(2) The carrying value of the debt reflects the amounts stated in the above table less debt issuance costs of $2.6 million and $3.0 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, related to the Credit Agreement, which are not reflected in this table.

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 periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, stock options of 0.9 million and 1.1 million, respectively, and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, stock options of 1.0 million and 1.1 million, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.

Dividends

In February and April 2020, the Company’s board of directors declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.375 per share. These quarterly cash dividends of $20.7 million and $19.4 million were paid on March 11, 2020 and June 10, 2020 to stockholders of record on February 28, 2020 and May 29, 2020.

Fair Value [Abstract]

Fair Value

7. 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.  Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information.

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;

◾ Level 3 – unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assumptions.

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 measured at fair value on a recurring basis (U.S. dollars in thousands):

	Fair Value at June 30, 2020
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total

Income Taxes

8. Income Taxes

Provision for income taxes for the three- and six-month periods of 2020 was $17.8 million and $28.5 million, compared to $24.5 million and $47.3 million for the prior-year periods. The effective tax rates for the three- and six-month periods were 29.8% and 31.6% of pre-tax income compared to 34.6% and 34.6% in the prior-year periods.

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 $20.3 million and $20.0 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 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, 2019. If the amount designated as indefinitely reinvested as of December 31, 2019 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. The Company is no longer subject to tax examinations from the IRS for all years for which tax returns have been filed before 2019. With a few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state and local income tax examination by tax authorities for the years before 2016. 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. The Company has elected to participate in CAP for 2020 and may elect to continue participating in CAP for future tax years; the Company may withdraw from the program at any time. In major foreign jurisdictions, the Company is generally no longer subject to income tax examinations for years before 2012. However, statutes of limitations in certain countries 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 decrease in the next 12 months by approximately $1.3 to $2.3 million.

Segment Information

9. Segment Information

The Company reports revenue from nine segments, consisting of its seven geographic Nu Skin segments—Mainland China, Americas/Pacific, South Korea, Southeast Asia, Japan, EMEA, and Hong Kong/Taiwan—and its Manufacturing and Grow Tech segments. The Other category includes miscellaneous corporate revenue and related adjustments. 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.

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.

Commitments and Contingencies [Abstract]

Commitments and Contingencies

10. 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.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Accounting

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 June 30, 2020, and for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. 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, 2019 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, 2019.   Additionally, based on the duration and severity of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, including but not limited to limitations of holding sales meetings, supply chain disruptions, reduced travel and closed walk-in locations, the Company remains uncertain of the ultimate impact COVID-19 could have on the business. To date, the pandemic has not increased the Company’s costs of or access to capital under the revolving credit facility, and at this time the Company cannot provide assurance it will not in the future. This uncertainty could have an impact in future periods on certain estimates used in the preparation of the second quarter financial results, including, but not limited to impairment of goodwill and other long-lived assets, income tax provision and recoverability of inventory.

The Company has classified the $65.0 million borrowed under the revolving line of credit as short term because it is the Company’s intention to use the line of credit to borrow and pay back funds over short periods of time.

[2] The carrying value of the debt reflects the amounts stated in the above table less debt issuance costs of $2.6 million and $3.0 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, related to the Credit Agreement, which are not reflected in this table.
