“While the first quarter was a respectable start to the year for USANA, net sales were softer than anticipated, particularly around the Lunar New Year holiday in a few key Asia Pacific markets,” said Kevin Guest, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. “That said, we made progress in executing our customer experience strategy by rolling out more Active Nutrition products in key markets and by enhancing onboarding programs and training tools.”


Mr. Guest added, “The operating environment in Asia Pacific has become more challenging, particularly in China, where the escalation of COVID-19 has resulted in mass lockdowns, restrictions, and other disruptions. As we look ahead, we are adjusting our strategy to support our teams and Associates in these markets, and we remain optimistic about delivering results in the face of these challenges. We remain focused on executing our strategic initiatives, which we believe will deliver long-term, sustainable growth for all stakeholders.”

Balance Sheet and Share Repurchase Activity

The Company ended the quarter with $238 million in cash and cash equivalents after repurchasing 288,000 shares during the quarter, for a total of $25 million. Diluted shares outstanding totaled 19.5 million during the first quarter of 2022. As of April 2, 2022, the Company had approximately $83 million remaining under the share repurchase authorization.

Fiscal 2022 Outlook

The Company is revising its net sales and earnings per share outlook for fiscal year 2022 as follows:

Fiscal Year 2022 Outlook
Revised Range Previous Range
Consolidated Net Sales $1.100 - $1.200 billion $1.125 - $1.225 billion
Diluted EPS $5.00 - $5.70 $5.25 - $6.00

Doug Hekking, Chief Financial Officer, said, “Despite some sales softness across a few key markets and ongoing inflationary pressures, our first quarter operating results were within the range reflected in our internal forecast. We are, however, reducing our net sales and diluted EPS outlook for fiscal 2022 due to the elevated uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 environment in China.”


Management Commentary Document and Conference Call

For more information on the USANA’s operating results, please see the Management Commentary document, which has been posted on the Company’s website (http://ir.usana.com) under the Investor Relations section. USANA’s management team will hold a conference call and webcast to discuss today’s announcement with investors on Wednesday, April 27, 2022 at 11:00 AM Eastern Time. Investors may listen to the call by accessing USANA’s website at http://ir.usana.com. The call will consist of brief opening remarks by the Company’s management team, followed by a questions and answers session.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company prepares its financial statements using U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Constant currency net sales, earnings, EPS and other currency-related financial information (collectively, “Financial Results”) are non-GAAP financial measures that remove the impact of fluctuations in foreign-currency exchange rates (“FX”) and help facilitate period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s Financial Results that we believe provide investors an additional perspective on trends and underlying business results. Constant currency Financial Results are calculated by translating the current period's Financial Results at the same average exchange rates in effect during the applicable prior-year period and then comparing this amount to the prior-year period's Financial Results.

First quarter diluted EPS totaled $1.15 versus $1.45 during the first quarter of 2021.

Overview

Our first quarter financial performance was largely in-line with our internal expectations, although we experienced softer-than-anticipated Active Customers and net sales in several of our markets in Southeast Asia Pacific. This softness, however, was partially offset by growth in other key markets.

We typically experience slower sales during the Lunar New Year holiday in several markets and, consequently, we offer a variety of sales promotions during the holiday to help generate sales momentum. This year, the sales promotions we offered did not generate the level of sales activity to counter the holiday slowdown and fell short of sales generated from similar efforts in the prior-year quarter. This was particularly pronounced in our markets in Southeast Asia Pacific, notably in the Philippines and Malaysia. We believe the softness was largely attributable to disruption and fatigue from the COVID-19 environment. The top-line softness in the Southeast Asia Pacific sub-region, however, was somewhat offset by growth in other key markets, including the United States and South Korea.

Notwithstanding the softer sales performance, we continued to successfully execute our strategy to roll out more Active Nutrition products and enhance our onboarding programs and training tools. Our team continues to adapt in an ever-changing environment as we remain focused on executing our 2022 strategy designed to increase momentum in the business.


Inflationary pressures are being felt across key areas of our business and we continue to engage with our stakeholders to address and manage these costs accordingly. We remain steadfast and committed to strategic investments in the business to support long-term, sustainable growth.

We entered the second quarter recognizing we face a difficult financial comparison to the prior-year period, which included the short-term sales program that we offered across all markets in the second quarter of 2021. This year, we are offering similar short-term sales programs on a staggered basis throughout the year. As a result, we anticipate more balanced sales performance for the remainder of the year.

Notwithstanding the near-term challenges, particularly from the escalating COVID-19 situation in China, we remain confident in our global strategies and our long-term growth potential. We continue to evaluate and will adjust our strategy, as necessary, to support our team and Associates in our markets. We remain optimistic that we can deliver results for our stakeholders.

Balance Sheet and Share Repurchase Activity

We ended the quarter with $238 million in cash and cash equivalents after repurchasing 288,000 shares during the quarter, for a total of $25 million. Diluted shares outstanding totaled 19.5 million during the first quarter of 2022. As of April 2, 2022, the Company had approximately $83 million remaining under the share repurchase authorization.

Quarterly Income Statement Discussion

Gross margin decreased 10 basis points from the prior year to 81.2% of net sales. The

          decrease is attributed primarily to the negative impact of FX rates, inventory valuation adjustments, and increased material and labor costs. The cost pressures were offset, in part, by geographic sales mix and lower relative promotional
          sales during the current year quarter.

Associate Incentives increased 10 basis points from the prior year to 43.8% of net sales. The modest increase primarily reflects higher incentive and promotional expenses during the current year quarter.

Selling, General and Administrative expenses increased to 25.2%, or 210 basis points, as a percentage of net sales compared to prior year results. The increase is largely due to loss of leverage on lower year-over-year net sales. On an absolute basis, SG&A expenses decreased $2.8 million compared to the prior year, which can be primarily attributed to lower costs on current year sales and operating performance.

The effective tax rate of 32.5% increased from the 30.9% reported in the prior-year quarter, largely due to a change in distribution of pre-tax income generated by market.

The operating environment in China has become increasingly more challenging due to the recent surge in COVID-19 cases, which has resulted in strict lockdowns and restrictions in several areas within this key market. However, despite these challenges, our team remains committed to supporting our staff and Associates as they navigate the current environment.

North Asia: South Korea continued to perform well in the first quarter, as net sales and local currency sales increased 1% and 9% year-over-year, respectively. On a sequential basis, net sales and local currency sales grew 3% and 5%, respectively. Our South Korea market continues to demonstrate resilience in a difficult COVID-19 operating environment.

Southeast Asia Pacific: Local currency net sales in Malaysia declined 27%, largely due to a challenging comparable given the high cadence of promotional activity in the prior-year quarter. Active Customers in this important market declined 17% year-over-year. Sequentially, net sales and Active Customers declined 13% and 8%, respectively. The Philippines, which has historically been a very strong market, experienced a difficult operating environment and reported disappointing sales and operating performance for fiscal 2021. Accordingly, we expect a tough year-over-year comparable in the first half of fiscal 2022 and hope to build momentum as the year progresses. Although local currency net sales declined 30% year-over-year, on a sequential basis, net sales increased 4% and Active Customers were flat.

Americas and Europe Region: Net sales in the United States increased 5% year-over-year while Active Customers in this market decreased 3%. Sequentially, net sales and Active Customers declined 3% and 2%, respectively. Canada experienced a 5% decline in both net sales and local currency net sales, and a 9% decrease in Active Customers. On a sequential basis, net sales declined 4% and Active Customers were flat.

Outlook and 2022 Operating Strategy

We are revising our consolidated net sales and earnings per share outlook for fiscal year 2022.

Fiscal Year 2022 Outlook
Revised Range Previous Range
Consolidated Net Sales $1.100- $1.200 billion $1.125 - $1.225 billion
Diluted EPS $5.00 - $5.70 $5.25 - $6.00

Our revised outlook for the year reflects:

An unfavorable currency exchange rate impact on net sales of approximately $16 million (previously $16 million);
An estimated operating margin between 13.0% and 13.6% (previously 13.5% and 14.1%);
--- ---
An annual effective tax rate of 32.5% (previously 32.5%); and
--- ---
An annualized diluted share count of 19.3 million (previously 19.6 million).
--- ---

Given the elevated uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 environment in China, and the related lockdowns and operating restrictions in the China market, we are revising our fiscal 2022 outlook. We continue to anticipate year-over-year net sales growth in the back half of the year, albeit now at modestly lower levels than previously anticipated.

As previously indicated, we anticipate our operating margin will be pressured by higher-than-normal labor and supply chain costs. Therefore, our estimated operating margin is lower than historic annual levels.

Digital Strategy

During the quarter we made progress on key strategic initiatives for 2022 which are aimed at improving conversion rates, the customer onboarding process and enhancing Associate training tools. We are on track to rollout these new processes and updates in certain markets this quarter with further rollouts in additional markets planned for the back half of the year.

Product Strategy

We resumed the launch of our Active Nutrition line in the first quarter and plan to roll out new products throughout the year. This roll out is dependent on the operating environment in markets where these products will be sold, and we will adapt our introduction accordingly.

Business Development Strategy

We continue to assess growth opportunities that would strengthen, diversify, and grow our worldwide business. Our business development efforts are focused on: (i) overall nutrition; (ii) vertical integration; (iii) product and category expansion; and (iv) geographic expansion.

In closing, we continue to operate with a long-term mindset, and we remain optimistic on the long-term growth prospects for our business.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company prepares its financial statements using U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Constant currency net sales, earnings, EPS and other currency-related financial information (collectively, “Financial Results”) are non-GAAP financial measures that remove the impact of fluctuations in foreign-currency exchange rates (“FX”) and help facilitate period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s Financial Results that we believe provide investors an additional perspective on trends and underlying business results. Constant currency Financial Results are calculated by translating the current period's Financial Results at the same average exchange rates in effect during the applicable prior-year period and then comparing this amount to the prior-year period's Financial Results.
