“As indicated in our preliminary results release on July 6th, we continue to experience COVID-related disruptions in several key markets, including mainland China. This caused participation in sales programs, Active Customer counts, and financial performance to come in lower than anticipated,” said Kevin Guest, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. “Although many of these disruptions were outside of our control, and while we faced a tough year-over year comparable due to the timing of a successful sales program in 2021, our second quarter results were not up to our standards. Nevertheless, we remain committed to our business strategy which we believe will deliver sustained, long-term growth in customer counts, net sales, and EPS. Important elements of this strategy include (1) enhancing digital experience for our customers to improve the overall online shopping experience; (2) improving Associate onboarding and training to help drive and sustain customer growth; (3) exploring additional promotions and incentives on a market-specific basis; (4) launching experience centers in mainland China to promote growth in this key market; and (5) pursuing accretive business development opportunities.

"During the quarter, we streamlined our Associate onboarding program and provided Associates with additional tools to help them more efficiently and effectively setup and operate their businesses. Our team also launched improvements to our China shopping app to further improve the online shopping experience in that market. Although it takes time to recapture momentum, we are confident these strategies will deliver long-term growth.”

Range

Consolidated Net Sales

$1.015 - $1.065 billion

Diluted EPS

$3.85 - $4.45

Doug Hekking, Chief Financial Officer, said, “While we remain optimistic that our strategies will generate future growth, we believe we will continue to face a challenging operating environment in the second half of the year. Moreover, we will do so with a lower-than-anticipated Active Customer base, which will impact our top and bottom-line results for the period. Although COVID-related disruptions and inflationary pressures remain difficult, we remain steadfast in pursing investments to deliver on our business objectives. We will also continue to align our cost structure with sales performance. Despite a challenging operating environment, our debt-free balance sheet remains healthy, and we are on pace to generate meaningful cash flow for the year.”

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.
