| Organization, Consolidation, And Basis Of Presentation |
NOTE A — ORGANIZATION, CONSOLIDATION, AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION USANA Health Sciences, Inc. develops and manufactures high-quality nutritional and personal care products that are sold internationally through a global network marketing system, which is a form of direct selling. The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts and operations of USANA Health Sciences, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company" or "USANA") in two geographic regions: North America/Europe and Asia Pacific, which is further divided into three sub-regions; Southeast Asia/Pacific, Greater China, and North Asia. North America/Europe includes the United States (including direct sales from the United States to the United Kingdom and the Netherlands), Canada, Mexico, France, and Belgium. Southeast Asia/Pacific includes Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand; Greater China includes Hong Kong, Taiwan and China; and North Asia includes Japan and South Korea. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in this consolidation. The condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2011, derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited interim consolidated financial information of the Company have 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 September 29, 2012 and results of operations for quarters and nine months ended October 1, 2011 and September 29, 2012. 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 31, 2011. The results of operations for the quarter and nine months ended September 29, 2012, may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year 2012 ending December 29, 2012. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-02, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment (ASU 2012-02). ASU 2012-02 was issued with the intent of reducing the cost and complexity of performing impairment tests for indefinite-lived intangible assets by providing an entity with the option to first make a qualitative assessment about the likelihood that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test. The amendments in this update also enhance the consistency of impairment testing guidance among long-lived asset categories by permitting the qualitative assessment, which is similar to the previously updated guidance for goodwill impairment testing provided in ASU 2011-08. ASU 2012-02 is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim impairment tests performed as of a date before July 27, 2012, if a public entity's financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued. The Company does not expect adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
