Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Overview

  

The Company produces a line of food products including nutritional supplements, diet management products, and sports drink mixes. The Company also sells a line of skin care products. These products are sold by subsidiaries of the Company to a sales force of independent distributors of the Company that sell products directly to consumers. The Company and its subsidiaries sell products to distributors throughout the United States and in Australia/New Zealand, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom/Ireland, the Philippines, Malaysia, and Singapore. As of March 31, 2005, the Company had approximately 73,060 distributors worldwide.


The Company receives payment by credit card, personal check, or guaranteed funds for orders from independent distributors and makes related commission payments in the following month. The net sales price is the suggested retail price less the distributor discount of 20 percent to 40 percent of such suggested retail price. Sales revenue and commission expenses are recorded when the merchandise is shipped. In the first quarter ended March 31, 2005, sales in the United States made up approximately 90% of worldwide net sales, with the remainder from our international operations. This compares to 86% for all of 2004. The sales breakdown by country is given in greater detail in the “Net Sales by Region” table below.

 

Cost of products sold primarily consists of expenses related to raw materials, labor, quality control, and overhead directly associated with the production and distribution of products and sales materials, as well as shipping costs, duties, and taxes associated with product exports.

Distributor royalties and commissions are paid to Master Affiliates monthly, based on the sales of their distributor organization in the prior month. These expenses are governed by the distributor agreements. Also, included in this payment is other sales leadership bonuses that are directly related to the level of sales.

 

Selling, general, and administrative expenses include compensation and benefits, all other selling expenses, marketing, promotional expenses, travel, and other corporate administrative expenses.

 

Results of Operations

 

The Company had net income available to common shareholders of $2,063,000 ($0.13 per share basic and $0.12 per share diluted) for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, compared to net income available to common shareholders of $1,629,000 ($0.11 per share basic and $0.10 per share diluted) for the same period in 2004. Profitability continued to improve as net sales improved worldwide by 23%, led by a 26% increase in net sales in the United States, the Company’s primary market.

 

The following table summarizes the net sales by geographic region for the three- month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004.

The following table illustrates the Company’s active distributors and Master Affiliates as of March 31, 2005 and 2004. The total amount of distributors also includes the Master Affiliates. The Company defines an active distributor as one that enrolls as a distributor or renews their distributorship during the prior twelve months. Growth in the number of active distributors and Master Affiliates is a key factor in continuing the growth of the business.

In the United States, new distributor enrollments, strong retention, and strong growth in the number of Master Affiliates continue to be factors in the increased sales in this market. In the first three months of 2005, over 6,200 new distributors were enrolled, as compared to approximately 6,000 in the same period of 2004. Distributor retention was approximately 62%, compared to a rate of 58% for all of 2004. The number of distributors reaching Master Affiliate, the highest level of discount a distributor can attain, has also continued to improve in the United States. In the first three months of 2005, over 2,100 distributors achieved Master Affiliate status, as compared to approximately 1,700 in the same period of 2004. The Company attributes the increase in sales and other sales statistics in part to the momentum created by the consistency and reinforcement of its training programs and business opportunity presentations, in the form of regional distributor conferences and other corporate-sponsored meetings. This has resulted in more distributors reaching the Master Affiliate level, who are more experienced and productive distributors.

 

Also contributing to the sales increase in the first quarter of 2005 are sales from the introduction of the Company’s newest product, CardioSentials™. Introduced in February 2005, net sales of this product were $1,063,000 in the first quarter of 2005.

 

During the first quarter of 2005, sales in the Company’s international subsidiaries showed a slight improvement. In aggregate, international sales increased by 4% to $3,010,000 in the first quarter of 2005, compared to $2,906,000 in the first quarter of 2004.

 

Sales in the markets of Canada, the Philippines, Malaysia/Singapore, and the UK increased by approximately 13% or better in each of these markets during the first quarter of 2005, versus the same period in 2004. Sales in these markets continue to show improvement as the Company continues its training and distributor development system in these markets.

 

Mexican sales decreased 19% in the first quarter of 2005, compared to the same period in 2004. Sales declined subsequent to price increase and change in distributor qualification requirements, effective March 1, 2005, to put the Mexican business model in line with the rest of the markets operated by the Company.

The following table summarizes selected items from the consolidated statement of operations, expressed as a percentage of net sales, for the periods indicated, and should be read in conjunction with the discussion of the components of the consolidated statements of operations that follow:

 

Selected data from the Consolidated
Statements of Operations
Three Months Ended
March 31
  2005 2004
     
 
                 
Cost of products sold       17.1 %   16.4 %
                 
Distributor royalties and commissions       40.4 %   39.7 %
                 
Selling, general, and administrative       30.9 %   32.0 %
                 
Provision for income taxes       4.4 %   4.7 %
                 
Net income       7.1 %   7.0 %

 

Cost of products sold as a percentage of net sales was 17.1% in the first quarter of 2005, as compared to 16.4% in the first quarter of 2004. Cost of products sold as a percentage of net sales for the fourth quarter of 2004 was 18.3%. The increase was due to start-up inefficiencies related to the installation of new production equipment during the third and fourth quarters of 2004. Although the cost of products sold as a percentage of net sales in the first quarter of 2005 is higher than the first quarter of 2004, this percentage is improving as the operating efficiency of the new production equipment is improved.

 

Distributor royalties and commissions as a percentage of net sales were 40.4% and 39.7% in the first quarter of 2005 and 2004, respectively. These expenses are governed by the distributor agreements and are directly related to the level of sales. The increase is primarily the result the changes to the distributor compensation plan in the Philippines and Mexico during the first quarter of 2005. These changes resulted in commission payments being made on the full retail value of the products sold, and therefore, increased the percentage of royalties and commissions. With the changes made in the Philippines and Mexico, commission payments are being made on the full retail value of the products sold worldwide.

 

Selling, general and administrative (SGA) expenses increased $1,442,000 in the first quarter of 2005, as compared to the first quarter of 2004. However, SGA expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 30.9% in the first quarter of 2005 compared to 32.0% in the first quarter of 2004. Sales expenses represented approximately $608,000 of the increase, including increased credit card fees due to the higher sales volume; increased conference call expenses due to more frequent and greater participation in the use of this training and communications tool; and additional promotional bonuses. Marketing expenses increased by $162,000, primarily in higher expenses for regional distributor conferences. General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $642,000, primarily in salaries and bonuses, fringe benefit expenses, and director’s fees. Accounting fees and related expenses increased by $156,000 in the first quarter of 2005, compared to the first quarter of 2004. However, these fees in the first quarter of 2005 were $259,000 less than the fourth quarter of 2004, as the Company

has established an internal audit department to handle much of the work related to management’s assessment of the internal control environment that was outsourced in the prior year.

 

The Company recorded income tax expense of $1,285,000 for the first quarter of 2005, an effective rate of 38.4%. In the first quarter of 2004, the Company recorded income tax expense of $1,110,000, an effective rate of 40.3%. The higher rate in 2004 is primarily due to non-deductible losses in some of the Company’s foreign markets.

 

Financial Condition

 

The Company generated $6,011,000 of net cash during the first quarter of 2005 from operating activities, $280,000 was used in investing activities, and the Company used $1,425,000 in financing activities. This compares to $3,465,000 of net cash provided by operating activities, $686,000 used in investing activities, and $975,000 used in financing activities in the first quarter of 2004. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $4,266,000 to $14,417,000 as of March 31, 2005, compared to December 31, 2004.

 

Significant changes in working capital items consisted of an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $870,000, an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $2,265,000, and an decrease in refundable income taxes payable of $1,263,000 in the first quarter of 2005. The increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets is due to prepayments for future promotional trips and for policy payments for various types of business insurance to be expensed over the lives of the policies. The increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses is due to increased production volume and other expenses related to the increase in sales volume, coupled with the increase in distributor commissions payable at March 31, 2005, compared to December 31, 2004. This increase in distributor commissions payable is the result of higher worldwide sales in March 2005, compared to December 2004. The decrease in the refundable income taxes is the result of a refund received from the Internal Revenue Service on the overpayment of income tax deposits.

 

The Company’s net investing activities in the first quarter of 2005 consisted of $280,000 for capital expenditures. The most significant financing activity in the first quarter of 2005 was $1,355,000 in purchases of treasury stock. Most of this treasury stock was purchased from related parties and is described in greater detail in Note 6 of the Consolidated Financial Statements. In March 2005, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had approved a stock repurchase plan of its common stock of up to $15 million over the next three years. Approximately $78,000 of stock was purchased from the open market during March 2005.

 

Stockholders’ equity decreased to $16,979,000 at March 31, 2005, compared with $18,191,000 at December 31, 2004. The decrease is primarily due to a stock repurchase agreement of $4.05 million of the Company’s common stock from an officer/director of the Company and other treasury stock purchases that occurred during the quarter, offset by the net income of the Company during the first quarter of 2005. Under the stock repurchase agreement, the Company paid cash of $900,000 in March 2005 and entered into a promissory note for $3,150,000. The stock repurchase agreement is described in greater detail in Note 6 of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Stockholders’ equity also increased by $1,185,000 as the result of the tax benefit from the exercise of nonqualified options and warrants during the first quarter.

The Company’s working capital balance was $12,962,000 at March 31, 2005, compared to $11,467,000 at December 31, 2004. The current ratio at March 31, 2005 was 2.24, compared to 2.41 at previous year-end. The Company also has an operating line of credit, with a maximum borrowing limit of $1,000,000 and a variable interest rate equal to the prime rate. At March 31, 2005, the Company had not utilized any of the line of credit.

 

Management believes that the Company’s internally generated funds, and the borrowing capacity under the line of credit agreement will be sufficient to meet working capital requirements for the remainder of 2005.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

A summary of our critical accounting policies and estimates is presented on page 35 of our 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2005.

 

Safe Harbor Provision of the Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995 and Forward Looking Statements.

 

The statements contained in Item 2 (Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation) that are not historical facts may be forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in the rules promulgated pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties. The forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of the Company’s management, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to the Company’s management. Accordingly, these statements are subject to significant risks, uncertainties and contingencies which could cause the Company’s actual growth, results, performance and business prospects and opportunities in 2005 and beyond to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, any such forward-looking statements. Wherever possible, words such as “anticipate”, “plan”, “expect”, “believe”, “estimate”, and similar expressions have been used to identify these forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. These risks, uncertainties and contingencies include, but are not limited to, the Company’s ability to continue to attract, maintain and motivate its distributors, changes in the regulatory environment affecting network marketing sales and sales of food and dietary supplements and other risks and uncertainties detailed in the Company’s other SEC filings.

 

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures of Market Risk

 

The Company is exposed to various market risks, primarily foreign currency risks and interest rate risks.

 

Foreign Currency Risk

 

The Company’s earnings and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency rates as it has several foreign subsidiaries and continues to explore expansion into other foreign countries. As a result, exchange rate fluctuations may have an effect on sales and gross margins. Accounting practices require that the Company’s results from operations be

 

7

 



 

converted to U.S. dollars for reporting purposes. Consequently, the reported earnings of the Company in future periods may be significantly affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, generally increasing with a weaker U.S. dollar and decreasing with a strengthening U.S. dollar. Products manufactured by the Company for sale to the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are transacted in U.S. dollars.

 

The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts with a financial institution to sell Canadian dollars in order to protect against currency exchange risk associated with expected future cash flows. The Company has accounted for these contracts as free standing derivatives, such that gains or losses on the fair market value of these forward exchange contracts are recorded as other income and expense in the consolidated statements of operations. The net changes in the fair value of these forward contracts as of March 31, 2005 was a cumulative expense $86,000. As of March 31, 2005, the Company had no hedging instruments in place to offset exposure to the Australian or New Zealand dollars, Mexican or Philippine pesos, the Malaysian ringgit, the Singapore dollar, or the British pound.

 

There have been no other material changes in market risk exposures during the first three months of 2005 that affect the disclosures presented in Item 7A – “Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures Regarding Market Risk” on pages 37 and 38 of our 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2005.

 

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, has reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2005. Based on such review and evaluation, our chief executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of March 31, 2005, to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (a) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (b) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There were no material changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the first quarter of 2005 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

These statements, however, do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Interim results may not necessarily be indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the year as a whole. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004, filed March 16, 2005 with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

  Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Note 4-- Comprehensive Income

 

Total comprehensive income was $2,079,062 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and $1,668,376 for the three months ended March 31, 2004. The Company’s only component of other comprehensive income is the foreign currency translation adjustment.


Note 5-- Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation.
