PROVO, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nu Skin Enterprises Inc. (NYSE: NUS) today announced first quarter revenue at the high end of its guidance range. Executive Summary Q1 2025 vs. Prior-year Quarter “We are pleased to achieve revenue at the high end of our guidance range and exceed our adjusted earnings forecast to start out the year,” said Ryan Napierski, Nu Skin president and CEO. “We drove year-over-year growth in Latin America and our Rhyz manufacturing segment, but we continue to experience consumer caution in premium beauty due to concerns such as inflation and tariffs in many parts of the world. Through 2025, we remain focused on building on our recent product launches and preparing for the preview of our Prysm iO intelligent wellness device in the back half of the year. This palm-sized device provides real-time insights into a customer's health, informing recommendations for product subscriptions and increasing customer satisfaction and loyalty. We are also laying the groundwork for expansion into India with a market pre-opening in Q4 and formal launch in mid-2026 and prioritizing our efforts to continue improving margins across the board.” Q1 2025 Year-over-year Operating Results Stockholder Value Q2 and Full-year 2025 Outlook “In addition to delivering on revenue and adjusted earnings, we saw encouraging improvement in core Nu Skin operating margin, driven by ongoing cost efficiency initiatives across every segment,” said James D. Thomas, chief financial officer. “We also made meaningful progress in strengthening our balance sheet by reducing outstanding debt by $155 million, achieving our lowest debt level in more than 10 years. In addition, we returned $8 million to shareholders — $3 million in the form of dividends and $5 million via share repurchases. While macroeconomic uncertainty around trade tensions and tariffs continues to impact visibility, we are maintaining our adjusted annual guidance as we closely monitor developments throughout the remainder of 2025. For the second quarter, we project revenue between $355 million and $390 million, with earnings per share in the range of $0.20 to $0.30.” Conference Call The Nu Skin Enterprises management team will host a conference call with the investment community today at 5 p.m. (ET).

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. The company believes 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 the company’s revenue from period to period. Earnings per share, general & administrative expenses, operating margin and income tax rate, each excluding the gain from the Mavely sale, restructuring charges, impairment charges, and/or other charges, as well as revenue growth rate excluding Mavely 2024 revenue, also are non-GAAP financial measures. Restructuring charges and impairment charges are not part of the ongoing operations of our underlying business; Mavely revenue is no longer included in our operations following our sale of this business on January 2, 2025; and the gain from the Mavely sale and the other charges incurred in connection with this sale that have been excluded in the non-GAAP financial measures are not typical for our ongoing operations. The company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors, lenders and analysts because removing the impact of these items facilitates period-to-period comparisons of the company’s performance. Please see the reconciliations of these items to our earnings per share, general & administrative expenses, operating margin, income tax rate and revenue growth rate calculated under GAAP, below. The following table sets forth revenue for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2025, and 2024 for each of our reportable segments (U.S. dollars in thousands): The following table provides information concerning the number of Customers, Paid Affiliates and Sales Leaders in our core Nu Skin business for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2025, and 2024: “Customers” are persons who have purchased directly from the Company during the three months ended as of the date indicated. Our Customer numbers include members of our sales force who made such a purchase, including Paid Affiliates and those who qualify as Sales Leaders, but they do not include consumers who purchase directly from members of our sales force. “Paid Affiliates” are any Brand Affiliates, as well as members of our sales force in Mainland China, who earned sales compensation during the three-month period. In all of our markets besides Mainland China, we refer to members of our independent sales force as “Brand Affiliates” because their primary role is to promote our brand and products through their personal social networks. “Sales Leaders” are the three-month average of our monthly Brand Affiliates, as well as sales employees and independent marketers in Mainland China, who achieved certain qualification requirements as of the end of each month of the quarter.
