Management Commentary
“The positive momentum in our business continued in the fourth
quarter as sales increased 6.0%, with double-digit sales growth in
North America and a more than tripling of our net income to $9
million,” said CEO Terrence Moorehead. “In 2023, we made excellent
progress against our gross margin initiatives and expect to meet or
exceed our $10 million in savings goal in 2024. In fact, the
combination of this work, along with our continued above-market
sales growth fueled a 21% increase in fourth quarter adjusted
EBITDA, which came in at $9.7 million.
“We enter 2024 as a stronger organization that is executing at a
high level against our sales and cost optimization initiatives,
while continuing to drive incremental operating cash flow. As we
move forward, we will look to build on our momentum by leveraging
our high-quality products, our omnichannel customer growth engine,
and our strong balance sheet to continue to drive sustainable
profitable growth and expand shareholder value.”

Net sales in the fourth quarter of 2023 increased 6.0% to $108.9
million compared to $102.7 million in the year-ago quarter.
Excluding the impact from foreign exchange rates, net sales in the
fourth quarter of 2023 increased 5.6% compared to the year-ago
quarter.
Gross margin in the fourth quarter was 71.9% compared to 72.2%
in the year-ago quarter. Inflationary pressures and changes in
market mix contributed to the slight decline.
Volume incentives as a percentage of net sales were 30.1%
compared to 30.3% in the year-ago quarter. The decrease in volume
incentives as a percentage of net sales was driven primarily by
changes in market mix.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) in the
fourth quarter were $39.9 million compared to $38.8 million in the
year-ago quarter. The slight increase was driven by increases in
service fees in China, compensation, variable costs related to
sales growth, and investments to drive digital growth and strategic
initiatives. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses
declined to 36.6% in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to 37.8%
in the year-ago quarter.
Operating income in the fourth quarter was $5.7 million, or 5.2%
of net sales, compared to $4.2 million, or 4.1% of net sales, in
the year-ago quarter.
Other income, net, in the fourth quarter of 2023 was $2.0
million compared to $2.0 million in the year-ago quarter. Other
income, net, primarily consisted of foreign exchange gains as a
result of net changes in foreign currencies, in Europe and Latin
America, which were largely offset by losses in Asia. The benefit
from income taxes was $1.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2023
compared to a provision of $4.1 million in the year-ago
quarter.
GAAP net income attributable to common shareholders was $9.0
million, or $0.46 per diluted common share, compared to $2.0
million, or $0.10 per diluted common share, in the year-ago
quarter. Net income attributable to NSP China increased to $1.9
million, or $0.10 per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter
of 2023, compared to $0.7 million, or $0.03 per diluted common
share, in the prior year quarter.
Non-GAAP net income attributable to common shareholders was $8.9
million, or $0.45 per diluted common share, compared to $1.9
million, or $0.10 per diluted common share, in the year-ago
quarter. Adjusted net income, which is a non-GAAP financial
measure, is defined here as net income from continuing operations
before less-frequent items including, among other things,
restructuring expenses and certain tax refunds. A reconciliation of
adjusted net income to GAAP net income is provided in the financial
tables below.
Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter increased to $9.7 million
compared to $8.0 million in the prior year quarter. The increase
was driven primarily by the aforementioned increase in operating
income. Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is
defined here as net income from continuing operations before taxes,
depreciation, amortization, and other income (loss) adjusted to
exclude share-based compensation expense and certain noted
adjustments. A reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA is
provided in the attached financial tables.

Net sales in 2023 increased 5.5% to $445.3 million compared to
$421.9 million in 2022. Excluding unfavorable foreign exchange
rates, net sales in 2023 increased 7.3% compared to the prior
year.
Gross margin in 2023 increased 110 basis points to 72.1%
compared to 71.0% in 2022. The increase was driven by improvements
in market mix, price increases in various markets, and contribution
margin improvement initiatives, partially offset by increases
related to inflation and unfavorable foreign currency exchange.
Volume incentives as a percentage of net sales in 2023 were
30.4% compared to 30.9% in 2022. The slight decrease was due to
changes in market mix.
SG&A in 2023 were $167.1 million compared to $153.1 million
in 2022. The increase was driven by increases in service fees in
China, compensation, variable costs related to sales growth, and
investments to drive digital growth and strategic initiatives. As a
percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 37.5% in 2023
compared to 36.3% in 2022.
Operating income in 2023 was $18.7 million, or 4.2% of net
sales, compared to $16.3 million, or 3.8% of net sales, in
2022.
Other income (loss), net, in 2023 was $1.5 million compared to
$(1.0) million in 2022. Other income, net, primarily consisted of
foreign exchange gains as a result of net changes in foreign
currencies, in Europe and Latin America, which were largely offset
by losses in Asia. The provision for income taxes was $3.8 million
in 2023 compared to $14.7 million in 2022.
GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders
increased to $15.1 million, or $0.77 per diluted common share,
compared to $(0.4) million, or $(0.02) per diluted common share, in
2022. Net income attributable to NSP China increased to $6.7
million, or $0.34 per diluted common share, for 2023, compared to
$4.7 million, or $0.24 per diluted common share, in the prior
year.
Non-GAAP net income attributable to common shareholders in 2023
was $18.6 million, or $0.95 per diluted common share, compared to
$0.8 million, or $0.04 per diluted common share, in 2022. Adjusted
net income, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined here
as net income from continuing operations before less-frequent items
including, among other things, restructuring expenses and certain
tax refunds. A reconciliation of non-GAAP net income to GAAP net
income is provided in the attached financial tables.
Adjusted EBITDA in 2023 increased 26% to $40.4 million compared
to $32.0 million in 2022. The increase was driven primarily by the
aforementioned increase in operating income. Adjusted EBITDA, which
is a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined here as net income from
continuing operations before taxes, depreciation, amortization, and
other income (loss) adjusted to exclude share-based compensation
expense and certain noted adjustments. A reconciliation of net
income to Adjusted EBITDA is provided in the attached financial
tables.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We have included information which has not been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP),
such as information concerning non-GAAP net income, adjusted EBITDA
and net sales excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange
fluctuations.
We utilize the non-GAAP measures of non-GAAP net income and
adjusted EBITDA in the evaluation of our operations and believe
that these measures are useful indicators of our ability to fund
our business. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be
considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, U.S. GAAP
net income (loss) as an indicator of our operating performance.
Other companies may use the same or similarly named measures,
but exclude different items, which may not provide investors with a
comparable view of Nature’s Sunshine Products’ performance in
relation to other companies. We have included a reconciliation of
net income to adjusted EBITDA, the most comparable GAAP measure. We
have also included a reconciliation of GAAP net income to non-GAAP
net income and non-GAAP adjusted EPS, in the attached financial
tables.
Net sales in local currency removes, from net sales in U.S.
dollars, the impact of changes in exchange rates between the U.S.
dollar and the functional currencies of our foreign subsidiaries.
This is accomplished by translating the current period net sales
into U.S. dollars using the same foreign currency exchange rates
that were used to translate the net sales for the previous
comparable period.
We believe presenting the impact of foreign currency
fluctuations is useful to investors because it allows a more
meaningful comparison of net sales of our foreign operations from
period to period. Net sales excluding the impact of foreign
currency fluctuations should not be considered in isolation or as
an alternative to net sales in U.S. dollar measures that reflect
current period exchange rates, or to other financial measures
calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
With respect to our Adjusted EBITDA outlook for the full year
2024, a quantitative reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP
information cannot be provided without unreasonable effort because
of the inherent difficulty of accurately forecasting the occurrence
and financial impact of the various adjusting items necessary for
such reconciliation that have not yet occurred, are out of our
control, or cannot be reasonably predicted, including but not
limited to warrant liabilities and stock based compensation. For
the same reasons, we are unable to assess the probable significance
of the unavailable information, which could have a material impact
on our future GAAP financial results.
