USANA Health Sciences, Inc. (NYSE: USNA) today announced financial results for its fiscal first quarter ended March 30, 2024.
Key Financial & Operating Results
Q1 2024 Financial Performance
Consolidated Results
Net Sales
$228 million
Diluted EPS
$0.86
Active Customers
494,000
“Our top line results during the first quarter were driven by a successful sales incentive in mainland China, which helped counter the seasonal slowdown that we experience during the Lunar New Year holiday,” said Jim Brown, President and Chief Executive Officer. “This sales incentive helped us generate 15% year-over-year active customer growth in our largest market, as well as year-over-year and sequential quarter sales growth. Notwithstanding our solid performance in China, our first quarter results in other key markets did not meet internal expectations and we are actively working to accelerate our business in these markets during 2024.
“During the first quarter we focused on actively engaging with our Associate leaders across the world through several live annual kickoff events, meetings, and trainings. Moreover, early in the second quarter, we hosted both our China National Sales Meeting in Xiamen, China and our Asia Pacific Convention in Kuala Lampur, Malaysia. Attendance at both events was robust and our executive team and Associate leaders came away from both events with increased excitement and motivation to grow their businesses during 2024. We will host additional Associate events throughout the year; all intended to drive further engagement with and productivity from our Associate leaders.
“We also completed our first full quarter of operations in India and we remain excited and optimistic about this important market. We continue to work closely with our local leadership team to expand and build our presence throughout the country. Although we expect its contribution to be small in this first year, we have high expectations for steady and long-term growth in India.”

“Strength in our mainland China operations carried our first quarter results,” said Doug Hekking, Chief Financial Officer. “This performance helped offset softness in many other markets where we continue to face a challenging operating environment highlighted by ongoing inflationary pressures.”

Management Commentary Document and Conference Call
For further information on the USANA’s operating results, please see the Management Commentary document, which has been posted on the Company’s website (http://ir.usana.com) under the Investor Relations section. USANA’s management team will hold a conference call and webcast to discuss today’s announcement with investors on Wednesday, May 1, 2024 at 11:00 AM Eastern Time.

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.
