2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America(“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its Subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial information as of September 30, 2024, and for thethree- and nine-month periods ended September 30,2024 and 2023. The results of operations of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the fiscal year. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 has been prepared using information from the audited financial statements at that date. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). The amendments in this ASU require disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM), as well as the aggregate amount of other segment items included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss. This ASU requires that a public entity disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss. Public entities will be required to provide all annual disclosures currently required by Topic 280 in interim periods, and entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in the update and existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. This amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and requires retrospective adoption. Early adoption is permitted. While the Company will adopt this standard with its fiscal 2024 annual filing. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows, the Company will be required to provide enhanced segment disclosures beginning in the Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and subsequent interim periods.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current presentation. The Company reclassified $7.5 million and $18.2 million ofinterest expense from other income (expense), net to theinterest expense line on the consolidated statement of income for the third quarter and first nine months of 2023, respectively. The reclassification had no impact on net income for the third quarter and first nine months of 2023.

Revenue Recognition

Contract Liabilities – Customer Loyalty Programs

Contract liabilities, recorded as deferred revenue within the accrued expenses line in the consolidated balance sheets, include loyalty point program deferrals with certain customers which are accounted for as a reduction in the transaction price and are generally recognized as points are redeemed for additional products.

The balance of deferred revenue related to contract liabilities as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was$11.5 million and$12.6 million, respectively. The contract liabilities impact to revenue for thethree-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was an increase of$0.3 million and an increase of $0.8 million, respecti vely. The impact to revenue for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024, and 2023 was an increase of $1.1 million and an increase of $6.8 million, respectively.

3.Goodwill and Intangibles

Goodwill

The Company’s reporting units for goodwill are its operating segments, which are also its reportable segments, with the exception of Rhyz other. The Rhyz other segment is made up ofthree reporting units, which had goodwill of $12.6 million, $3.7 million and $4.7 million as of September 30, 2024, and $12.6 million, $19.6 million and $4.7 million as of December 31, 2023, respectively.

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company determined that the continued decline in the Company’s stock price and corresponding market capitalization as well as declines in some of the Company’s reporting units’ forecasts were triggering events that required the Company to perform a quantitative impairment analysis for all reporting units. Based on the analysis, the Company concluded the fair values of certain of its reporting units were less than their carrying values. As a result, the Company recorded non-cash goodwill impairment charges of $130.9 million within restructuring and impairment expenses on the consolidated statement of income during the three months ended June 30, 2024. The impairment charges were $9.4 million for the Americas segment, $32.2 million for the Mainland China segment, $18.5 million for the Southeast Asia/Pacific segment, $16.0 million for the Japan segment, $29.3 million for the South Korea segment, $2.9 million for the Europe & Africa segment, $6.6 million for the Hong Kong/Taiwan segment and $15.9 million for the BeautyBio reporting unit within the Rhyz other segment. As part of the Company’s impairment analysis, the fair values of the reporting units were determined using the income approach. The income approach used level 3 inputs and utilized management estimates related to revenue growth rates, profitability margins, estimated future cash flows and discount rates.

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company determined that the continued decline in the Company’s stock price and corresponding market capitalization was a triggering event that required the Company to perform a quantitative impairment analysis for the Manufacturing and Rhyz other reporting units. Based on the analysis, the Company concluded the fair value of the Manufacturing and Rhyz other reporting units were in excess of their carrying amounts andno impairment charge was required. For goodwill, the estimated fair value of Manufacturing and Rhyz other reporting units exceeded the carrying value by approximately 2% -8%; therefore, the reporting units are considered to be at risk of future impairment. The Manufacturing and Rhyz other reporting units’ fair values remain sensitive to unfavorable changes in assumptions utilized in the income approach, including revenue growth rates, profitability margins, estimated future cash flows, and the discount rates that could result in impairment charges in a future period.

The following table presents goodwill allocated to the Company’s reportable segments for the periods ended September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 (U.S. dollars in thousands):

September 30, 2024December 31, 2023

Total$99,885$230,768

Accumulated impairment charges as of September 30, 2024 were $9.4 million for the Americas segment,$18.5 million for the Southeast Asia/Pacific segment,$32.2 million for the Mainland China segment, $16.0 million for the Japan segment, $29.3 million for the South Korea segment, $2.9 million for the Europe & Africa segment, $6.6 million for the Hong Kong/Taiwan segment and $15.9 million for the Rhyz other segment. There wereno accumulated impairment charges as of December 31, 2023.

Intangibles

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment when performance expectations, events or change in circumstances indicate that the assets’ carrying value may not be recoverable. The evaluation is performed at the lowest level of identifiable cash flows by comparing the carrying value of the asset group to the net undiscounted cash flows. If the evaluation indicates that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable, any potential impairment is measured based upon the fair value of the related asset group.

During the second quarter of 2024, based on continued losses and change in forecasted losses associated with the BeautyBio retail asset group within the Rhyz other segment, the Company concluded that these factors were an interim triggering event. As a result, the Company performed an interim impairment test of the asset group and assessed the recoverability of the related asset group by comparing the carrying value of the retail asset group to the net undiscounted cash flow expected to be generated. The recoverability test indicated that the retail asset group was impaired. The Company concluded the retail asset group’s carrying value exceeded its estimated fair value, which was determined utilizing the discounted projected future cash flows, which resulted in an impairment charge. The estimated fair value was based on expected future cash flows using level 3 inputs and utilized management estimates related to revenue growth rates, profitability margins and discount rates. The Company recorded an impairment charge of $10.1 million for its Rhyz other segment during the three months ended June 30, 2024 within restructuring and impairment expenses on the consolidated statement of income. The retail asset group has a remaining carrying value of $2.3 million with a remaining amortization period of approximately 9 years.

4.Debt

Credit Agreement

On June 14, 2022, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with several financial institutions as lenders and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, which amended and restated the 2018 Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement provides for a $400 million term loan facility and a $500 million revolving credit facility, each with a term offive years. Both facilities bear interest at the SOFR, plus a margin based on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. Commitment fees payable under the Credit Agreement are also based on the consolidated leverage ratio as defined in the Credit Agreement and range from 0.175% to 0.30% on the unused portion of the total lender commitments then in effect. The term loan facility amortizes in quarterly installments in amounts resulting in an annual amortization of 2.5% during the first year and 5.0% during the second, third, fourth and fifth years after the closing date of the Credit Agreement, with the remainder payable at final maturity. The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and collateralized by assets of such subsidiaries, including a pledge of 65% of the capital stock of certain foreign subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a consolidated leverage ratio not exceeding 2.75 to 1.00 and a consolidated interest coverage ratio of no less than 3.00 to 1.00. As of September 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement.

The following table summarizes the Company’s debt facilities as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

6.Capital Stock

Net income per share

Net income per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. Additionally, diluted earnings per share data gives effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the periods presented. For the three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, stock options of 2.3 million and 2.1 million, respectively, and for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, stock options of 1.5 million and 1.3 million, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.

Dividends

In February, May and August 2024, the Company’s board of directors declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.06 per share. These quarterly cash dividends of $3.0 million were paid on March 6, 2024, June 12, 2024 and September 11, 2024, respectively, to stockholders of record on February 26, 2024, May 31, 2024 and August 30, 2024, respectively. In November 2024, the Company’s board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.06 per share to be paid on December 11, 2024 to stockholders of record on November 29, 2024.

Repurchase of common stock

During the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024, the Company repurchased zero shares of its Class A common stock under its stock repurchase plan. As of September 30, 2024, $162.4 million was available for repurchases under the Company’s stock repurchase plan.

7.Fair Value and Equity Investments

Fair Value

The carrying value of financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of debt approximates fair value due to the variable 30-day interest rate. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information.

The FASB Codification defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. On a quarterly basis, the Company measures at fair value certain financial assets, including cash equivalents. Accounting standards specify a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs have created the following fair-value hierarchy:

■Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
■Level 2 – inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
■Level 3 – unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assumptions.

Accounting standards permit companies, at their option, to measure certain financial instruments and other eligible items at fair value. The Company has elected not to apply the fair value option to existing eligible items beyond what is required by US GAAP.

The following tables present the fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (U.S. dollars in thousands):

Level 1Level 2Level 3Total

The following table provides a summary of changes in fair value of the Company’s Level 3 life insurance contracts (U.S. dollars in thousands):

20242023

Actual return on plan assets6,1532,341
Sales and settlements(7,200)(483)
Ending balance at September 30$43,994$41,913

Life insurance contracts: Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 preserves practicability exceptions to fair value measurements provided by other applicable provisions of U.S. GAAP. The guidance in ASC 715-30-35-60 allows a reporting entity, as a practical expedient, to use cash surrender value or conversion value as an expedient for fair value when it is present. Accordingly, the Company determines the fair value of its life insurance contracts as the cash-surrender value of life insurance policies held in its Rabbi Trust.

The following table provides a summary of changes in fair value of the Company’s Level 3 contingent consideration (U.S. dollars in thousands):

20242023
Beginning balance at January 1$(6,300)$(6,364)
Changes in fair value of contingent consideration—(58)
Payments6,300—
Ending balance at September 30$—$(6,422)

Contingent consideration: Contingent consideration represents the obligations incurred in connection with acquisitions. The estimate of fair value of the contingent consideration obligations requires subjective assumptions to be made regarding the future business results, discount rates, discount periods and probabilities assigned to various potential business result scenarios and was determined using probability assessments with respect to the likelihood of reaching various targets or of achieving certain milestones. The fair value measurement is based on significant inputs unobservable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement. Changes in current expectations of progress could change the probability of achieving the targets within the measurement periods and result in an increase or decrease in the fair value of the contingent consideration obligation.

Equity Investments

The Company maintains equity investments in companies which are accounted for under the measurement alternative described in ASC 321-10-35-2 for equity securities that lack readily determinable fair values. The carrying amount of equity securities held by the Company without readily determinable fair values was$28.1 million at each of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. During thethree months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized$18.1 million upward fair value adjustments, based on the valuation of additional equity issued by the investee which was deemed to be an observable transaction of a similar investment under ASC 321. The third quarter of 2021 gain was recorded within Other income (expense), net on the Consolidated Statement of Income. The upward fair value adjustment represents a nonrecurring fair value measurement based on observable price changes and is classified as a Level 3 fair value measurement.

8.Income Taxes

Provision (benefit) for income taxes for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 was $5.0 million and $(6.8) million, compared to $2.5 million and $15.9 million for the prior-year periods. The effective tax rates for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024, were 37.6% and 5.8% of pre-tax income compared to (7.3)% and 92.4% in the prior-year periods.

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes.” These standards establish financial accounting and reporting standards for the effects of income taxes that result from an enterprise’s activities during the current and preceding years. The Company takes an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. The Company pays income taxes in many foreign jurisdictions based on the profits realized in those jurisdictions, which can be significantly impacted by terms of intercompany transactions between the Company and its foreign affiliates. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are created in this process. The Company has netted these deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities by jurisdiction. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be ultimately realized. The Company had net deferred tax assets of $115.3 million and $105.0 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

The Company evaluates its indefinite reinvestment assertions with respect to foreign earnings for each quarter. For all foreign earnings, the Company accrues the applicable foreign income taxes. For the earnings that have been indefinitely reinvested, the Company does not accrue foreign withholding taxes. Undistributed earnings that the Company has indefinitely reinvested, for which no foreign withholding taxes have been provided, aggregate to $60.0 million as of December 31, 2023. If the amount designated as indefinitely reinvested as of December 31, 2023 were repatriated to the United States, the amount of incremental taxes would be approximately $6.0 million. The Company intends to utilize the indefinitely reinvested offshore earnings to fund foreign investments, specifically capital expenditures.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and in various state and foreign jurisdictions. In 2009, the Company entered into a voluntary program with the IRS called Compliance Assurance Process (“CAP”). The objective of CAP is to contemporaneously work with the IRS to achieve federal tax compliance and resolve all or most of the issues prior to filing of the tax return. As of December 31, 2023, tax years through 2020 and 2022 have been audited and are effectively closed to further examination. For tax year 2021, the Company was in the Bridge phase of the CAP program, pursuant to which the IRS will not accept disclosures, will not conduct reviews and will not provide letters of assurance for the Bridge years. There are limited circumstances that tax years in the Bridge phase will be opened for examination. For tax years 2023 and 2024, the Company has been accepted in the IRS’s Bridge Plus program. The Company may elect to continue participating in CAP for future tax years; the Company may withdraw from the program at any time. With a few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state and local income tax examination by tax authorities for the years before 2020. Foreign jurisdictions have varying lengths of statutes of limitations for income tax examinations. Some statutes are as short asthree years and in certain markets may be as long asten years. The Company is currently under examination in certain foreign jurisdictions; however, the outcomes of those reviews are not yet determinable. The Company’s unrecognized tax benefits relate to multiple jurisdictions. Due to potential increases in unrecognized tax benefits from the multiple jurisdictions in which the Company operates, as well as the expiration of various statutes of limitations, it is reasonably possible that the Company’s gross unrecognized tax benefits, net of foreign currency adjustments, may decrease in the next 12 months by approximately $3.0 to $4.0 million.

In 2021, as part of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (“OECD”) Inclusive Framework, 140 member countries agreed to the implementation of the Pillar Two Global Minimum Tax (“Pillar Two”) of 15%. The OECD continues to release additional guidance, including administrative guidance on how Pillar Two rules should be interpreted and applied by jurisdictions as they adopt Pillar Two. A number of countries have utilized the administrative guidance as a starting point for legislation that went into effect January 1, 2024. Based on current enacted legislation, the Company anticipates the impact of Pillar Two to be immaterial for 2024.

9.Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. During 2024, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt.

For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income and subsequently reclassified into interest expense/income in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense/income as interest payments are made/received on the Company’s variable-rate debt. During the next twelve months, the Company estimates that an additional $6.3 million will be reclassified as a reduction to interest expense.

As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company hadfour outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk with a total notional amount of $200 million.

The Company reports revenue from nine segments, consisting of itsseven geographic Nu Skin segments—Americas, Mainland China, Southeast Asia/Pacific, South Korea, Japan, Europe & Africa, and Hong Kong/Taiwan—andtwo Rhyz Investments segments—Manufacturing and Rhyz other. The Nu Skin other category includes miscellaneous corporate revenue and related adjustments. The Rhyz other segment includes other investments by our Rhyz business arm. These segments reflect the way the chief operating decision maker evaluates the Company’s business performance and allocates resources. Reported revenue includes only the revenue generated by sales to external customers.

Profitability by segment as determined under US GAAP is driven primarily by the Company’s transfer pricing policies. Segment contribution, which is the Company’s segment profitability metric presented in the table below, excludes certain intercompany charges, specifically royalties, license fees, transfer pricing, discrete charges and other miscellaneous items. These charges have been included in Corporate and other expenses. Corporate and other expenses also include costs related to the Company’s executive and administrative offices, information technology, research and development, and marketing and supply chain functions not recorded at the segment level.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on revenue and segment contribution. Each segment records direct expenses related to its employees and its operations.

Summarized financial information for the Company’s reportable segments is shown in the following tables. Asset information is not reviewed or included with the Company’s internal management reporting. Therefore, the Company has not disclosed asset information for each reportable segment.

11.Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to government regulations pertaining to product formulation, labeling and packaging, product claims and advertising, and the Company’s direct selling system. The Company is also subject to the jurisdiction of numerous foreign tax and customs authorities. Any assertions or determination that either the Company or the Company’s sales force is not in compliance with existing statutes, laws, rules or regulations could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations. In addition, in any country or jurisdiction, the adoption of new statutes, laws, rules or regulations or changes in the interpretation of existing statutes, laws, rules or regulations could have a material adverse effect on the Company and its operations. No assurance can be given that the Company’s compliance with applicable statutes, laws, rules and regulations will not be challenged by foreign authorities or that such challenges will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company and its Subsidiaries are defendants in litigation, investigations and other proceedings involving various matters. Management believes that the ultimate liability arising from such claims and contingencies, if any, is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company is subject to regular audits by federal, state and foreign tax authorities. These audits may result in additional tax liabilities. The Company believes it has appropriately provided for income taxes for all years. Several factors drive the calculation of its tax reserves. Some of these factors include: (i) the expiration of various statutes of limitations; (ii) changes in tax law and regulations; (iii) issuance of tax rulings; and (iv) settlements with tax authorities. Changes in any of these factors may result in adjustments to the Company’s reserves, which would impact its reported financial results.

12.Acquisitions

In April 2023, the Company acquired 60 percent of LifeDNA, Inc. (“LifeDNA”), a DNA assessment company. Consideration paid included $4.0 million of cash, along with the conversion of a previous $3.0 million Simple Agreement for Future Equity (“SAFE”), and a $0.2 million convertible note. The acquisition enables the Company to continue to expand its digital tools. The Company allocated the fair value of $12.0 million to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at estimated fair values. The estimated fair value of assets acquired included $7.3 million of intangible assets, $1.7 million of cash, $0.1 million of current assets, $0.9 million of accrued liabilities and also resulted in a deferred tax liability of $0.9 million. The excess purchase price over the aggregate fair value of assets acquired less liabilities assumed of $4.7 million was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill recognized is attributable primarily to expected synergies. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The intangible assets acquired comprised $0.6 million of customer relationships, $1.7 million of technology, $1.0 million of tradenames and $4.1 million of other intangibles. The intangibles were assigned useful lives of 7 years for the technology, tradenames and other intangibles, and 2 years for the customer relationships. All the goodwill was assigned to our Rhyz other segment. The numbers above are stated net of measurement period adjustments recorded during the fourth quarter of 2023 of $1.1 million to deferred tax liability and goodwill. The allocation of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the acquisition was finalized during the three months ended December 31, 2023.

The excess purchase price over the aggregate fair value of assets acquired less liabilities assumed of $19.6 million was recorded as goodwill.

The intangible assets acquired comprised $18.4 million of customer relationships, $2.3 million of technology, $20.9 million of tradenames and $1.4 million of other intangibles. The intangibles were assigned useful lives of approximately 19 years for the technology and tradenames, approximately 9 years for the customer relationships and 3 years for the other intangibles. All the goodwill was assigned to our Rhyz other segment. The numbers above are stated net of measurement period adjustments recorded during the fourth quarter of 2023 of $(1.2) million to accounts receivable, $(0.7) million of inventory, $(0.5) million of accrued liabilities, $0.7 million of deferred tax liability, $(0.3) of intangible assets and $2.4 million of goodwill. The allocation of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the acquisition was finalized during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

The financial results of LifeDNA and BeautyBio are included in the Rhyz other segment from the date of acquisition. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company included $3.0 million and $12.6 million, respectively, of revenue from these acquisitions.
