The declines for the second quarter and first six months of 2025 were largely driven by the continued macroeconomic challenges we have been facing in our markets, which have negatively impacted consumer spending and customer acquisition. In addition, while we continue to make progress on our long-term vision, we have experienced headwinds from the transformation process. Our priorities for 2025 focus on business model optimization, driven by the continued rollout of enhancements to our sales performance plan, a limited preview of our next connected device Prysm iO and business expansion into India. Due to the timing of the limited leader preview we are not anticipating material revenue from the Prysm iO device sales in 2025. We are currently anticipating nominal revenue from our fourth quarter India market pre-opening, as we are preparing for the formal launch in mid-2026.

Earnings per share for the second quarter of 2025 increased to $0.43, compared to $(2.38) in the prior-year period. Earnings per share for the first six months of 2025 increased to $2.59, compared to $(2.39) in the prior-year period. In the second quarter of 2024 we recorded restructuring and impairment charges of $149.4 million. In addition, our earnings per share for the first six months of 2025 increased due to the sale of our Mavely business, which generated a pre-tax gain of approximately $176.2 million, partially offset by the associated taxes, a $25.1 million impairment of the BeautyBio asset group, a non-cash loss on investment of $28.1 million and the decline in revenue.

Earnings per share for the first nine months of 2025 increased to $2.91, compared to $(2.23) in the prior-year period. The increase in earnings per share for the third quarter of 2025 was primarily attributable to a decline in our income tax rate from additional research and development credits recognized during the quarter, as well as a decline in general and administrative expenses from continued expense management. In addition, our earnings per share for the first nine months of 2025 increased due to the sale of our Mavely business, which generated a pre-tax gain of approximately $176.2 million, partially offset by the associated taxes, an intangible asset group impairment of $25.1 million in our Rhyz Other segment, a non-cash loss on investment of $28.1 million and the decline in revenue. The improvement in earnings per share for the nine-month period also reflects restructuring and impairment charges of $149.4 million in the second quarter of 2024, which did not repeat in 2025.

Selling expenses for our core Nu Skin business are driven by the specific performance of our individual Sales Leaders. Given the size of our sales force and the various components of our compensation and incentive programs, selling expenses as a percentage of revenue typically fluctuate plus or minus approximately 100 basis points from period to period. Our third quarter and first nine months of 2025 core Nu Skin selling expenses decrease is partially attributable to our third quarter of 2024 global Nu Skin L!VE events, which drove approximately $10.2 million of incremental expenditures, that did not repeat in 2025. In addition, approximately 1.3 percentage points and 1.0 percentage points of the decline in selling expenses as a percentage of revenue in our consolidated results are attributable to the January 2, 2025 sale of Mavely.

The $11.2 million decline for the second quarter is from contraction in labor expenses, $2.9 million from the first quarter of 2025 sale of Mavely, a decline in professional fees and a decrease in promotional expenses in connection with our prior-year product launches. The $22.6 million decline for the first half of 2025 is primarily from a $6.8 million contraction in labor expenses, $5.3 million from the sale of Mavely and a decrease in promotional expenses in connection with our prior-year product launches.

Historically, our principal uses of cash have included operating expenses (particularly selling expenses) and working capital (principally inventory purchases), as well as capital expenditures, stock repurchases, dividends, and debt repayment. We have at times incurred long-term debt, or drawn on our revolving line of credit, to fund strategic transactions, stock repurchases, capital investments and short-term operating needs. We typically generate positive cash flow from operations due to favorable margins and have generally relied on cash from operations to fund operating activities. In the first six months of 2025, we generated $36.2 million in cash from operations, compared to $54.5 million during the prior-year period. The decrease in cash flow from operations primarily reflects cash payments made in the first quarter of 2025 related to expenses accrued as of year-end, which included restructuring and other accrued expenses, partially offset by a decline in prepaid expenses associated with the utilization of prepaid income taxes. Cash and cash equivalents, including current investments, as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $265.4 million and $198.0 million, respectively, with the increase being driven by the proceeds from the sale of Mavely and cash generated from operations as described above, partially offset by $145.0 million in debt payments, which was comprised of $125.0 million toward our term loan and $20.0 million toward our revolving credit facility.

Credit Agreement. On June 14, 2022, we entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with various financial institutions as lenders and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement provides for a $400.0 million term loan facility and a $500.0 million revolving credit facility, each with a term of five years. We used the proceeds of the term loan and the draw on the revolving facility to pay off the previous credit agreement. Both facilities bear interest at the SOFR, plus a margin based on our consolidated leverage ratio. 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 subsequent years after the closing date of the Credit Agreement, with the remainder payable at final maturity. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $15.0 million and $35.0 million of outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and $235.0 million and $360.0 million on our term loan facility. The carrying value of the debt also reflects debt issuance costs of $1.1 million and $1.4 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, related to the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement requires us 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 June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all debt covenants under the Credit Agreement.
