NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except per share data)

(unaudited)

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited interim consolidated financial information of USANA Health Sciences, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “USANA”) has been prepared in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures that are normally included in financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim consolidated financial information contains all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments that are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 28, 2008, and results of operations for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2007 and June 28, 2008.  These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto that are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2007.  The results of operations for the quarter and six months ended June 28, 2008 may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending January 3, 2009.

 

NOTE A – ORGANIZATION

 

USANA develops and manufactures high-quality nutritional and personal care products that are sold internationally through a network marketing system, which is a form of direct selling.  The Company’s products are sold throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands.

 

NOTE B – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

 

Consistent with the Company’s long-term objectives of focusing on its direct selling business, on August 10, 2007, the Company sold certain assets of its third-party contract manufacturing business.  The Company retained assets that are associated with manufacturing and packaging its Sensé™ skin and beauty care products and continues to manufacture these products at the Draper, Utah facility.  Results of the third-party contract manufacturing operations have been classified as “discontinued operations” for all periods.

 

The Company’s sales that are reported in discontinued operations for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2007 were $1,865 and $3,754 respectively.  For the quarter ended June 30, 2007, the loss from discontinued operations was $150 and the related income tax benefit was $57.  For the six months ended June 30, 2007, the loss from discontinued operations was $330 and the related income tax benefit was $123.

At June 28, 2008, the Company had a balance of $9,835 on its line of credit, which was used to expand its facilities in Salt Lake City, Utah, and in Sydney, Australia.  The interest expense that is associated with these projects has been capitalized as part of the asset to which it relates and will be amortized over the asset’s estimated useful life.  Total interest expense that was incurred during the first six months of 2008 was $642, of which $280 was capitalized.

NOTE G – LONG TERM DEBT AND LINE OF CREDIT

 

The Company has a $40,000 line of credit, which had a balance of $9,835 at June 28, 2008.  The Company will be required to pay the balance on this line of credit in full at the time of maturity in May 2011.

 

The weighted-average interest rate on this line of credit at June 28, 2008, was 4.16%.  The interest rate is computed at the bank’s Prime Rate or LIBOR and is adjusted according to the related Credit Agreement.  The collateral for this line of credit is the pledge of the capital stock of certain subsidiaries of the Company, as set forth in a separate pledge agreement with the bank.  The Credit Agreement contains restrictive covenants that are based on the Company’s EBITDA and on the Company’s debt coverage ratio.

 

NOTE H – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Contingencies

 

As of June 28, 2008, the Company was named as a defendant in two class action lawsuits, which were filed in 2007 and were later consolidated.  The Company is also involved in other various disputes arising in the normal course of business.  In the opinion of management, based upon advice of counsel, the ultimate outcome of these lawsuits will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

The cost above is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.9 years.

 

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of its equity awards, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected stock price volatility.  The only awards granted by the Company during the six months ended June 28, 2008, were deferred stock units, which are full-value shares at the date of grant.  For awards granted by the Company during 2007, expected volatility was calculated by averaging the historical volatility of the Company and a peer group index, and the risk-free interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve on the date of grant with respect to the expected life of the award.  Due to the “plain vanilla” characteristics of the Company’s equity awards, the “simplified method,” as permitted by the guidance in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, was used to determine the expected life of these awards.

 

Weighted-average assumptions that were used to calculate the fair value of awards that were granted during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2007, are included in the table below.  Because deferred stock units are full-value shares at the date of grant they have been excluded.

*            Aggregate intrinsic value is defined as the difference between the current market value at the reporting date and the exercise price of awards that were in-the-money. It is estimated using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the last trading day of the period reported.

 

The weighted-average fair value of stock options and stock-settled stock appreciation rights that were granted during the six months ended June 30, 2007, was $16.79.  The total intrinsic value of awards that were exercised during the six month periods ended June 30, 2007, and June 28, 2008, was $4,745 and $7,096, respectively.

 

The total fair value of awards that vested during the six month periods ended June 30, 2007, and June 28, 2008, was $4,397 and $5,381, respectively.  This total fair value includes equity awards that were issued in the form of stock options, stock-settled stock appreciation rights, and deferred stock units.

NOTE J – COMMON STOCK AND EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for each period.  Shares that have been repurchased and retired during the periods specified below have been included in the calculation of the number of weighted-average shares that are outstanding for the calculation of basic earnings per share.  Diluted earnings per common share are based on shares that are outstanding (computed under basic EPS) and on potentially dilutive shares.  Shares that are included in the diluted earnings per share calculations include equity awards that are in-the-money but have not yet been exercised.

Equity awards for 42 and 1,400 shares of stock were not included in the computation of diluted EPS for the six months ended June 30, 2007, and June 28, 2008, respectively, due to the fact that their exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the shares.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company expended $72,998 to purchase 1,712 shares under the Company’s share repurchase plan.  No shares were purchased under the Company’s share repurchase plan during the six months ended June 28, 2008.  The purchase of shares under this plan reduces the number of shares issued and outstanding in the above calculations.

NOTE K – SEGMENT INFORMATION

 

USANA operates as a direct selling company that develops, manufactures, and distributes high-quality nutritional and personal care products that are sold through a global network marketing system of independent distributors (“Associates”).  During the six months ended June 30, 2007, and June 28, 2008, the Company’s nutritional products represented 86% and 88% of product sales, respectively.  The Company’s personal care products represented 10% of product sales during both of the six month periods ended June 30, 2007, and June 28, 2008.

 

The Company’s primary business is to manage its worldwide Associate base.  As such, management has determined that the Company operates in one reportable business segment as defined in SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.”  Resources are allocated to markets for the purpose of developing an infrastructure that supports the Associates and sales in that market.  The Company does not use profitability reports on a regional or market basis for making business decisions.  Performance for a region or market is primarily evaluated based on sales.  No single customer accounted for 10% or more of net sales for the periods presented.

 

In the table below, selected financial information is presented in four geographic regions: North America, Southeast Asia/Pacific, East Asia, and North Asia. “North America” includes our operations in the United States, Canada, Mexico, and direct sales from the United States to the United Kingdom and the Netherlands.  “Southeast Asia/Pacific” includes our operations in Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, and Malaysia.  “East Asia” includes our operations in Hong Kong and Taiwan.  “North Asia” includes our operations in Japan and South Korea.

Due to the centralized structure of the Company’s manufacturing operations and its corporate headquarters in the United States, a significant concentration of assets exists in this market.  As of June 30, 2007, and June 28, 2008, long-lived assets in the United States totaled $39,023 and $49,633, respectively.  Additionally, due to the purchase, remodel, and fit-out of a new facility in Sydney, Australia during 2007, long-lived assets in the Australia-New Zealand market as of June 30, 2007 and June 28, 2008 totaled $7,009 and $13,626, respectively.  There is no significant concentration of long-lived assets in any other market.

 

NOTE L – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

One July 21, 2008, the Company’s Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors issued approximately 2,500 SSARs to certain members of senior management that vest over five years.  These grants will have a significant impact on the Company’s future equity-based compensation expense and, consequently, results of operations.

 

As of June 28, 2008, a consolidated shareholder class action lawsuit was pending in the United States District Court, District of Utah, Central Division, against the Company and certain of its officers.  On July 23, 2008, the district court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss this litigation with prejudice.  The plaintiff has the right to appeal the court’s order within 30 days of the date of the order.

Item 2.    MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion and analysis of USANA’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto that are contained in this quarterly report, as well as Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations that are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2007, and our other filings, including Current Reports on Form 8-K, that have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) through the date of this report.

 

Our fiscal year end is the Saturday closest to December 31st of each year.  Fiscal year 2008 will end on January 3, 2009, and is a 53-week year.  Fiscal year 2007 ended on December 29, 2007, and was a 52-week year.

 

Presentation

 

Due to the sale of certain assets related to the third-party contract manufacturing business on August 10, 2007, we now operate as one reportable business segment, Direct Selling.  Our financial results reflect the reclassification of sales and related expenses in the former Contract Manufacturing segment to “discontinued operations.”

USANA develops and manufactures high-quality nutritional and personal care products.  We market our products on the basis of high levels of bioavailability, safety, and quality.  We distribute our products through a network marketing system, which is a form of direct selling.  Our customer base comprises two types of customers: “Associates” and “Preferred Customers.”  Associates are independent distributors of our products who also purchase our products for their personal use.  Preferred Customers purchase our products strictly for their personal use and are not permitted to resell or to distribute the products.  As of June 28, 2008, we had approximately 169,000 active Associates and approximately 77,000 active Preferred Customers worldwide.  During the six months ended June 28, 2008, sales to Associates accounted for approximately 87% of product sales.  For purposes of this report, we only count as active customers those Associates and Preferred Customers who have purchased product from USANA at any time during the most recent three-month period, either for personal use or for resale.

 

We have ongoing operations in the following markets, which are grouped and presented in four geographic regions:

 

·                  North America – United States, Canada, Mexico, and direct sales from the United States to the United Kingdom and the Netherlands;

 

·                  Southeast Asia/Pacific – Australia-New Zealand, Singapore, and Malaysia;

 

·                  East Asia – Hong Kong and Taiwan; and

 

·                  North Asia – Japan and South Korea.

 

Our primary product lines consist of USANA® Nutritionals and Sensé – beautiful science® (Sensé).  The USANA Nutritionals product line is further categorized into three separate classifications:

 

·                  Essentials – core vitamin and mineral supplements that provide a foundation of advanced nutrition for every age group;

 

·                  Optimizers – targeted supplements that are designed to meet individual health and nutritional needs; and

 

·                  Macro Optimizers – healthy, low-glycemic functional foods and other related products.

As both a manufacturer and direct seller of nutritional and personal care products, we compete within two industries: nutrition and direct selling.  We believe that the most significant industry-wide factors affecting us are the aging of the worldwide population and the general public’s heightened awareness and understanding of the connection between diet and health, as well as attracting and retaining Associates and Preferred Customers.

 

Our results of operations and financial condition are directly related to changes in the number of Associates and Preferred Customers purchasing our products.  We believe that our high-quality products and our financially rewarding Compensation Plan are the key components to attracting and retaining Associates.  Additionally, we sponsor meetings and events throughout the year, which offer information about our products and our network marketing system.  These meetings are designed to assist Associates in business development and to provide a forum for interaction with successful Associates and members of the USANA management team.  We also provide low cost sales tools, which we believe are an integral part of building and maintaining a successful home-based business for Associates.

 

In addition to Company-sponsored meetings and sales tools, we maintain a website exclusively for our Associates where they can keep up on the latest USANA news, obtain training materials, manage their business information, enroll new customers, shop, and register for Company-sponsored events.  Additionally, through this website, Associates can access other online services to which they may subscribe.  For example, we offer an online business management service, which includes a tool that helps Associates track and manage their business activity, a personal webpage to which their prospects or retail customers can be directed, e-cards for advertising, and a tax management tool.

The number of active Associates and Preferred Customers is used by management as a key non-financial measure because it is a leading indicator of net sales.  The tables below summarize the changes in our active customer base by geographic region, which are further discussed in the “Summary of Financial Results” section below.  These numbers have been rounded to the nearest thousand as of the dates indicated.
