Regional Volume Point and Average Active Sales Leader Metrics

² “Emerging markets” are defined herein as those countries that the World Bank categorized as having “low” or “medium” GDP per capita, while “Established markets” are defined as those countries categorized by the World Bank as having “high” GDP per capita.

³ Supplemental tables that include additional business metrics can be found at http://www.ir.herbalife.com

⁴ Worldwide Average Active Sales Leaders may not equal the sum of the Average Active Sales Leaders in each region due to the calculation being an average of Sales Leaders active in a period, not a summation, and the fact that some sales leaders are active in more than one region but are counted only once in the worldwide amount.

2011 Annual Sales Leader Requalification

By January of each year, sales leaders are required to re-qualify. In February of each year, we remove from the rank of sales leaders those individuals who did not satisfy the sales leader qualifications during the preceding 12 months. For the latest 12-month re-qualification period ending January 2012, approximately 52 percent of the eligible sales leaders, excluding China, re-qualified, reflecting an improvement from approximately 49 percent in the prior requalification period.

Updated 2012 Guidance

Guidance for fully diluted 2012 EPS is based on the average daily exchange rates of January 2012, which in aggregate are not materially different from the foreign currency exchange rates assumed in our prior guidance.

Based on current business trends the company’s first quarter fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2012 guidance is provided below.
