- Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information of the Company has been prepared in accordance with Article 10 of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s, or SEC, Regulation S-X. Accordingly, as permitted by Article 10 of the SEC’s Regulation S-X, it does not include all of the information required by generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S., or U.S. GAAP, for complete financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 was derived from the audited financial statements at that date and does not include all the disclosures required by U.S. GAAP, as permitted by Article 10 of the SEC’s Regulation S-X. The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2026 and for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 include Herbalife Ltd. and all of its direct and indirect subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial information contains all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2026 and for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, or the 2025 10-K. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026.
Reclassifications
Effective in the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company retrospectively separated selling expenses from selling, general, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of income and combined those selling expenses with royalty overrides in the consolidated statements of income to simplify its financial statement presentation. Specifically, the Company’s Member compensation payments recognized as operating expenses, previously reported as royalty overrides, have been combined with the service fees to China’s independent service providers which were previously reported as selling expense within selling, general, and administrative expenses, and the two categories of expense are now collectively being presented in selling expenses within the condensed consolidated statements of income. As a result, $31.6 million related to service fees to China independent service providers previously presented as selling, general, and administrative expenses and all amounts previously presented as royalty overrides were collectively reclassified to selling expenses within the condensed consolidated statements of income for thethree months ended March 31, 2025.
As a result of the above, the Member compensation previously reported as royalty overrides within the operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows is now presented as Member compensation liabilities. In addition, $0.8 million of cash outflows related to service fees to China independent service providers were reclassified from other current liabilities to Member compensation liabilities within the Company’s cash flows from operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for thethree months ended March 31, 2025.
These reclassifications did not impact the amounts of the prior period total assets, total liabilities, operating income, net income attributable to Herbalife, and net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, investing activities and financing activities, and did not impact the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income and condensed consolidated statements of changes in shareholders’ deficit.
Recently Adopted Pronouncements
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2024-04, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options - (Topic 470) - Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments. This ASU amends certain guidance related to induced conversion of convertible debt instruments and clarifies the applicability of induced conversion accounting as it relates to convertible debt that is cash-settled. Additionally, the amendments clarify that the incorporation, elimination, or modification of a volume-weighted average price formula does not automatically cause a settlement to be accounted for as an extinguishment and an entity should assess the form and amount of the conversion consideration to make that determination. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted for those entities that have adopted the amendments in ASU 2020-06. The adoption of this guidance during the first quarter of 2026 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Measurement of Credit Losses (Topic 326) for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. This ASU allows entities to elect a practical expedient to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change over the remaining life of the asset, thereby simplifying the development of reasonable and supportable forecasts as part of estimating expected credit losses. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance during the first quarter of 2026 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative, which amends the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of topics in the accounting standards codification (the “ASC”) in order to conform with certain SEC amendments in Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification. The effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC removes that related disclosure from its rules. However, if by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the related disclosure from its regulations, the amendments will be removed from the ASC and not become effective. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Topic 220): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This ASU requires new disclosures, in the notes to the financial statements, related to the disaggregation of certain expenses within the income statement. Additionally, a qualitative description is required of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively. Annually, an entity is also required to define and quantify its selling expenses. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-03, Business Combinations (Topic 805) and Consolidation (Topic 810) - Determining the Accounting Acquirer in the Acquisition of a Variable Interest Entity. This ASU improves requirements for determining the accounting acquirer for a transaction effected primarily by exchanging equity interests in which the legal acquiree is a variable interest entity that meets the definition of a business. The amendments require that an entity consider the same factors that are currently required for determining which entity is the accounting acquirer in other acquisition transactions. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted for all entities. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-04, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) - Clarifications to Share-Based Consideration Payable to a Customer. This ASU amends the definition of the term performance condition for share-based consideration payable to a customer. Additionally, the amendments in this ASU require the grantor to estimate the number of forfeitures expected to occur for awards granted to customers that have a service condition. Finally, the amendments clarify that a grantor should not apply the guidance in Topic 606 on constraining estimates of variable consideration to share-based consideration payable to a customer. Therefore, a grantor is required to assess the probability that an award will vest using only the guidance in Topic 718. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted for all entities and can be applied either in a modified retrospective or retrospective basis. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40). This ASU increases the operability of the cost recognition guidance considering different methods of software development by clarifying the threshold an entity should use to start capitalizing the costs. The threshold is when both of the following occur: (1) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (2) it is probable that the project will be completed, and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-07, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Derivatives Scope Refinements and Scope Clarification for Share-Based Noncash Consideration from a Customer in a Revenue Contract. This ASU refines the scope of derivative accounting by excluding from derivative treatment certain non-exchange-traded contracts with underlyings based on operations or activities specific to one of the parties to the contract. The update also clarifies that share-based noncash consideration from a customer in a revenue contract is accounted for under Topic 606 unless and until the right to receive or retain such consideration is unconditional. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-09, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Hedge Accounting Improvements. This ASU clarifies certain aspects of the hedge accounting guidance and addresses additional issues arising from the global reference rate reform initiative. The amendments address five issues: (1) similar risk assessment for cash flow hedges, (2) hedging forecasted interest payments on choose-your-rate debt instruments, (3) cash flow hedges of nonfinancial forecasted transactions, (4) net written options as hedging instruments, and (5) foreign-currency-denominated debt instrument as a hedging instrument and hedged item (dual hedge). The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted on any date on or after the issuance of this guidance. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities. This ASU establishes authoritative guidance on the accounting, including recognition, measurement, and presentation, of government grants received by business entities as previously there was diversity in practice on how to account for such government grants. The guidance classifies government grants into two groups: (1) grants related to an asset, which are conditioned on the purchase, construction, or acquisition of an asset, and (2) grants related to income, for all other grants not related to an asset. Further, for asset-related government grants, companies may elect to recognize under the deferred income approach or cost accumulation approach, while government grants related to income are recognized under the deferred income approach. When the deferred income approach is used, entities present the grants as part of earnings by either (1) disclosing separately under a general heading, such as other income, or (2) deducting from the related expense. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2028, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements. This ASU improves the guidance in Topic 270 by improving the navigability of the required interim disclosures from other topics and clarifying when existing guidance is applicable. The purpose of ASU is not to expand or change previous interim reporting guidance, however, an added principle requires entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have material impact on the entity. The amendments are effective for interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-12, Codification Improvements. The amendments in the ASU reflect changes made to the guidance with the purpose of clarifying, correcting errors, and making minor improvements. The updates were made to a wide range of Topics and varied in nature. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s net sales consist of product sales. In general, the Company’s performance obligation is to transfer its products to its Members. The Company generally recognizes revenue when product is delivered to its Members. For the majority of China independent service providers, the Company recognizes revenue based on the Company’s estimate of when the service provider sells the products because the Company is deemed to be the principal party of these product sales due to the additional selling and operating requirements relating to pricing of products, conducting business with physical locations, and other selling and marketing activities required of the service providers. The Company recognizes revenue for certain China independent service providers upon delivery as such Members have pricing discretion and increased fulfillment responsibilities and accordingly were determined to be the Company’s customers for accounting purposes. The Company also utilizes third-party importers in certain of its markets where historically these sales have not been material. These importers primarily get compensated for their logistics, marketing and other support services and the Company is deemed to be the principal party of these product sales to its Members and recognizes revenue when its Members purchase its products.
The Company’s Members, excluding its China independent service providers, may receive distributor allowances, which are comprised of discounts, rebates, and wholesale commission payments from the Company. Distributor allowances resulting from the Company’s sales of its products to its Members are recorded against net sales because the distributor allowances represent discounts from the suggested retail price.
Shipping and handling services relating to product sales are recognized as fulfillment activities on the Company’s performance obligation to transfer products and are therefore recorded within net sales as part of product sales and are not considered as separate revenues. Shipping and handling costs paid by the Company are included in cost of sales.
The Company presents sales taxes collected from customers on a net basis.
The Company generally receives the net sales price in cash or through credit card payments at the point of sale. Accounts receivable consist principally of credit card receivables arising from the sale of products to the Company’s Members, and its collection risk is reduced due to geographic dispersion. Credit card receivables were $69.5 million and$59.4 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Substantially all credit card receivables were current as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The Company recorded bad-debt expense related to allowances for the Company’s receivables of approximately $0.1 million andzero during thethree months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $1.7 million and $1.8 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the majority of the Company’s total outstanding accounts receivable were current.
The Company records advance sales deposits when payment is received but revenue has not yet been recognized. In the majority of the Company’s markets, advance sales deposits are generally recorded to income when the product is delivered to its Members. Additionally, advance sales deposits also include deferred revenues due to the timing of revenue recognition for products sold through China independent service providers. The estimated deferral period for advance sales deposits is generally within one week. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recognized substantially all of the revenues that were included within advance sales deposits as of December 31, 2025 and any remaining such balance was not material as of March 31, 2026. Advance sales deposits are included in other current liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. See Note 14, Detail of Certain Balance Sheet Accounts, for further information.
In general, if a Member returns product to the Company on a timely basis, they may obtain replacement product from the Company for such returned products. In addition, in general the Company maintains a buyback program pursuant to which it will repurchase products sold to a Member who has decided to leave the business. Allowances for product returns, primarily in connection with the Company’s buyback program, are provided at the time the sale is recorded. This accrual is based upon historical return rates for each country and the relevant return pattern, which reflects anticipated returns to be received over a period of up to 12 months following the original sale. Allowances for product returns were $2.0 million and $2.0 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
The Company’s products are grouped infive product categories: weight management; targeted nutrition; energy, sports, and fitness; outer nutrition; and literature and promotional items. However, the effect of economic factors on the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue recognition and cash flows are similar among all five product categories. The Company defines its operating segments through five geographic regions. The effect of economic factors on the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue recognition and cash flows are similar among the geographic regions within the Company’s Primary Reporting Segment. See Note 6, Segment Information, for further information on the Company’s reportable segments and the Company’s presentation of disaggregated revenue by reportable segment.
Selling Expenses
The Company’s sales leader Members may earn sales commissions and bonuses, which is also considered as Member compensation. Globally, excluding China, the Company pays this compensation to its sales leader Members which is based on retail sales volume of certain other Members who are sponsored directly or indirectly by the Member. These Member compensation payments to the sales leader Members are classified as operating expenses as they represent services rendered to the Company relating to the development, retention, and the improved productivity of the sales leaders’ organizations. This Member compensation expense is recorded when the products are delivered, and revenue is recognized. Member compensation expenses also include other bonuses paid to the Company’s Members and other discretionary incentive payments to qualifying Members. The Company also compensates its China independent service providers for providing marketing, selling, and customer support services. For China sales transactions, as the Company is the principal party for the majority of these product sales as described above, the majority of service fees payable to China independent service providers are also classified as an operating expense reflecting the services provided to the Company. Collectively, the Company recognizes all of these operating expenses within selling expenses within the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income. In addition, for those certain China independent service providers who are deemed to be the Company’s customers for accounting purposes as described above, a portion of the service fees payable to these Members will be classified as a reduction of net sales as opposed to the entire service fee being recognized within selling expenses. See Note 6, Segment Information, for further information on selling expenses by segment.
Distributor Compensation – U.S.
In the U.S., distributor compensation is capped if the Company does not meet an annual requirement as described in a consent order entered into with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission in July 2016. On a periodic basis, the Company evaluates if this requirement will be achieved by year end to determine if a cap on distributor compensation will be required, and then determines the appropriate amount of distributor compensation expense, which may vary in each reporting period. As of March 31, 2026, the Company believes that the cap to distributor compensation will not be applicable for the current year.
Other Operating Income
To encourage local investment and operations, governments in various China provinces conduct grant programs. The Company applied for and received several such grants in China. Government grants are recorded into income when a legal right to the grant exists, there is a reasonable assurance that the grant proceeds will be received, and the substantive conditions under which the grants were provided have been met. Generally, these substantive conditions are the Company maintaining operations and paying certain taxes in the relevant province and obtaining government approval by completing an annual application process. The Company believes the continuing obligation with respect to the funds is a general requirement that they are used only for its business in China. The Company recognized government grant income related to its regional headquarters and distribution centers within China of approximately $5.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 in other operating income within its condensed consolidated statements of income. The Company didnot recognize any government grant income related to its regional headquarters and distribution centers within China during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The Company intends to continue applying for government grants in China when programs are available; however, there is no assurance that the Company will receive grants in future periods.
Restricted Cash
The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows:
| March 31,2026 | December 31,2025 | |
|---|---|---|
| (in millions) | ||

| Restricted cash included in Other assets | 19.1 | 19.0 |
| Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the statement of cash flows | $473.0 | $375.3 |
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the majority of the Company’s consolidated restricted cash consists of $15.2 million in U.S. bank deposits related to the Company’s tax assessment in Brazil. See Note 4, Long-Term Debt, and Note 5, Contingencies, for further information.
Asset Acquisitions of Pruvit and Pro2col LLC
On April 17, 2025, the Company entered into a $19 million asset purchase agreement and acquired certain assets of Pruvit Ventures, Inc. (Pruvit), which primarily consisted of intangible assets. Pruvit is a direct-seller of patented ketone supplements. In connection with this acquisition, Herbalife obtained the right to distribute and sell ketone supplements. Concurrently, on April 17, 2025, the Company also entered into an asset purchase agreement and acquired certain assets of Pro2col Health LLC (Pro2col LLC), primarily consisting of software and intangible assets. Pro2col LLC is a health and wellness digital application company. The acquired Pro2col technology platform leverages individual biometrics to provide personalized nutrition recommendations that support a healthy and active lifestyle.
These combined asset acquisitions of Pruvit and Pro2col LLC were accounted for as an acquisition of assets rather than a business, pursuant to ASC 805, Business Combinations. These acquired assets were recorded at their relative fair value determined as of the acquisition date. Based on the total $19 million purchase price for the assets acquired on April 17, 2025, the identifiable assets were allocated between the acquired assets from Pro2col LLC, related to developed technology, or software, for approximately $14.4 million, recorded to property, plant, and equipment, and an assembled workforce for approximately $0.3 million recorded to other intangible assets, and acquired assets from Pruvit related to customer contacts and related relationships for approximately $4.3 million recorded to other intangible assets; all of these assets were recognized within the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheetin the second quarter of 2025 and will be amortized and expensed on a straight line basis and recognized in general and administrative expenses within the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income.
The acquisition of Pruvit’s assets includes a contingent milestone payment ranging from $5 million to $25 million in total, that is due to the seller and payable in cash during the second quarter of 2027 based upon the achievement of certain Pruvit sales performance targets achieved during the last six months of the two-year period after the April 2025 acquisition date. If the minimum targets for the milestone are not reached, no additional payment will be required by the Company.
The acquisition of Pro2col LLC’s assets includes multiple contingent payments that are due to the sellers if certain milestones are achieved by the Company. First, there was a contingent payment of $2.0 million, that was paid in cash by the Company during the third quarter of 2025, upon the Company’s successful beta launch of the Company’s Pro2col technology platform that occurred in the North America region during July 2025. Second, there was a contingent payment of $3.0 million, that was paid in cash by the Company during the fourth quarter of 2025 following the successful release of Pro2col Beta 2.0 in the U.S., Canada, and Puerto Rico in December 2025. Third, there are multiple milestone contingent payments ranging from $5 million to $15 million each, with the aggregate amount of these contingent payments not to exceed $46 million in total, that are contingent upon the Company achieving specific monthly active subscriber milestones; these contingent payments will be made if and when Pro2col monthly active subscriber milestones are achieved during the 10-year period which expires in 2035, and if the minimum targets for the monthly active subscriber milestones are not reached, thenno additional payments will be required under these respective contingencies. Pursuant to U.S. GAAP, if and as these contingent payments become probable, the Company is then required to increase its software asset with a corresponding increase to its liability within its condensed consolidated balance sheets.
During February 2026, the Company entered into a sponsorship and stock option agreement under which Cristiano Ronaldo (“Ronaldo”), through his designated equity‑holding entity, initially acquired a 5% equity interest in HBL Pro2col Software, LLC (“Pro2col Software”) an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Herbalife, which owns the Pro2col technology platform acquired from Pro2col LLC as described above, in exchange for Ronaldo providing services and sponsorship rights to Pro2col Software. Subsequently, during February 2026, Ronaldo’s equity‑holding entity exercised an option and purchased an additional 5% equity interest in Pro2col Software for $7.5 million, increasing its minority ownership to 10%. This transaction resulted in an increase in noncontrolling interest and additional paid-in capital within the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. Ronaldo’s equity-holding entity retains contractual options to acquire up to an additional 10% of Pro2col Software’s equity through remaining option grants, which are exercisable at fixed aggregate purchase prices depending on timing and may require additional non-cash consideration in the form of additional licensing and sponsorship rights. The remaining options will expire if they are not exercised by January 31, 2028.
Business Acquisition of Link BioSciences Inc.
In April 2025, the Company formed and obtained a 51% ownership interest in HBL Link Bioscience, LLC. Concurrently, HBL Link Bioscience, LLC entered into an asset purchase agreement for $6.5 million and acquired the assets of Link BioSciences Inc. (Link BioSciences), an established, Texas-based, manufacturing company that uses proprietary technology to analyze biometrics, biomarkers, lifestyle, and genetic input data, and has the ability to formulate personalized nutritional supplements for its customers. The Company paid $6.5 million cash to Link BioSciences during April 2025 relating to this acquisition. There areno contingent payments related to this acquisition. This acquisition qualified as a business combination pursuant to ASC 805, Business Combinations.
The total fair value of Link BioSciences was $12.7 million and this amount was allocated to the identifiable asset acquired based on the assets estimated fair value at the acquisition date, which included manufacturing equipment for approximately $2.5 million, software assets for approximately $2.5 million, both recorded to property, plant, and equipment, and an intangible asset related to customer relationships for approximately $0.5 million recorded to other intangible assets, and all of these assets were recorded within the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet in the second quarter of 2025; the remaining amount of approximately $7.2 million was recorded to goodwill within the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet in the second quarter of 2025. In addition, the Company recorded a $6.5 million reduction in cash within its condensed consolidated balance sheet for its 51% ownership interest in HBL Link Bioscience, LLC, and recorded a $6.2 million increase in noncontrolling interest within its total shareholders’ deficit in its condensed consolidated balance sheet in the second quarter of 2025, which represented the minority ownership interest in its majority-owned subsidiary.
Use of Estimates
The Company continues to operate in an uncertain macroeconomic and geopolitical environment caused by high inflation, foreign exchange rate fluctuations, the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, rising trade tensions, including U.S. tariffs and retaliatory tariffs from foreign countries, and other factors. The Company is closely monitoring the evolving macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions to assess potential impacts on its business. Due to the significant uncertainty created by these circumstances, actual results could differ from Management’s estimates and judgments. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current macroeconomic and geopolitical environment, which estimates and assumptions the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Changes in estimates resulting from continuing changes in the macroeconomic and geopolitical environment will be reflected in the financial statements in future periods.

On August 16, 2018, the Company entered into a $1.25 billion senior secured credit facility, or the 2018 Credit Facility, consisting of a $250.0 million term loan A, or the 2018 Term Loan A, a $750.0 million term loan B, or the 2018 Term Loan B, and a $250.0 million revolving credit facility, or the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility, with a syndicate of financial institutions as lenders.
Subsequently, the 2018 Credit Facility was amended in a series of amendments that, as of March 31, 2024, among other things, increased the borrowing capacity of the 2018 Term Loan A to a total of $286.2 million and the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility to a total of $330.0 million and establishing the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or SOFR, for interest rate purposes under the 2018 Credit Facility. Borrowings utilizing SOFR under both the 2018 Term Loan A and 2018 Revolving Credit Facility, bore interest at, depending on the Company’s total leverage ratio, either the Adjusted Term SOFR, which is the rate per annum equal to Term SOFR plus a rate adjustment based on interest periods of one month, three months, six months and twelve months tenors equaling to approximately 0.11%,0.26%,0.43% and 0.72%, respectively, plus a margin of between 1.75% and 2.25%, or the base rate, which represented the highest of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, one-month Adjusted Term SOFR plus 1.00%, and the prime rate quoted by The Wall Street Journal, plus a margin of between 0.75% and 1.25%. Borrowings utilizing SOFR under the 2018 Term Loan B bore interest at either, the Adjusted Term SOFR plus a margin of 2.50%, or the base rate plus a margin of 1.50%. The Adjusted Term SOFR was subject to a floor of 0.00% and the base rate was subject to a floor of 1.00%. The Company paid commitment fees on the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility of, depending on the Company’s total leverage ratio, between 0.25% to 0.35% per annum on the undrawn portion of the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility. The maturity date of both the 2018 Term Loan A and 2018 Revolving Credit Facility was March 19, 2025. The 2018 Term Loan B maturity date was August 18, 2025.
The 2018 Credit Facility required the Company to comply with a leverage ratio. The 2018 Credit Facility also contained affirmative and negative covenants customary for financings of this type, including, among other things, limitations or prohibitions on repurchasing common shares, declaring and paying dividends and other distributions, redeeming and repurchasing certain other indebtedness, making loans and investments, incurring additional indebtedness, granting liens, and effecting mergers, asset sales and transactions with affiliates. In addition, the 2018 Credit Facility contained customary events of default.
On April 12, 2024, concurrently with the issuance of the $800.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes, or the 2029 Secured Notes, as described further below, the Company entered into the eighth amendment to the 2018 Credit Facility. The eighth amendment to the 2018 Credit Facility, among other things, refinanced and replaced in full the 2018 Credit Facility with, (i) a Term Loan B Facility, or the 2024 Term Loan B, with an aggregate principal amount of $400.0 million and (ii) a revolving credit facility, or the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility, with an aggregate principal amount of $400.0 million, collectively the 2024 Credit Facility. All obligations under the 2024 Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by certain direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Herbalife Ltd. and secured on a senior secured basis by the equity interests of certain of Herbalife Ltd.’s subsidiaries and substantially all of the assets of the domestic loan parties. Interest is due at least quarterly on amounts outstanding under the 2024 Credit Facility.
The 2024 Term Loan B Facility was issued to the lenders at a 7.00% discount, or $28.0 million, and the Company incurred approximately $10.3 million of debt issuance costs in connection with the 2024 Credit Facility. The Company may prepay the 2024 Term Loan B at a 101% premium on or prior to the second anniversary, and, solely in connection with a repricing event, at a 101% premium after the second anniversary but on or prior to the third anniversary, and generally at no premium thereafter. The 2024 Term Loan B requires quarterly payments equal to 5.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Term Loan B per annum, commencing in September 2024. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the 2024 Credit Facility, the Company may be required to make mandatory prepayments towards the 2024 Term Loan B based on an annual excess cash flow calculation and consolidated leverage ratio as defined under the terms of the 2024 Credit Facility. Based on the 2025 excess cash flow calculation, pursuant to the terms of the 2024 Credit Facility, the Company will not be required to make a mandatory prepayment in 2026 toward the 2024 Term Loan B.
Proceeds from the 2024 Term Loan B together with the proceeds from the 2029 Secured Notes were used to repay indebtedness, including all borrowings outstanding under the 2018 Credit Facility, effectively terminating its $228.9 million outstanding principal balance on the 2018 Term Loan A, and repaying $584.3 million on the 2018 Term Loan B, $170.0 million on the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility, and a portion of the 2025 Notes described further below. For accounting purposes, pursuant to ASC 470, Debt, these transactions were accounted for as an extinguishment of the 2018 Credit Facility. As a result, the Company recognized $981.0 million as a reduction to long-term debt representing the carrying value of the 2018 Credit Facility repaid in full in the second quarter of 2024. The Company also recognized a loss on extinguishment of approximately $2.5 million, as a result, which was recorded in other expense, net within the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of income during the second quarter of 2024.
Borrowings utilizing SOFR under the 2024 Credit Facility use Adjusted Term SOFR. The applicable interest rates on the Company’s borrowings under the 2024 Term Loan B, as amended, bear interest at either, the Adjusted Term SOFR plus a margin of 6.75%, or the base rate plus a margin of 5.75%. The 2024 Term Loan B Facility matures upon the earlier of (i)April 12, 2029, or (ii)March 16, 2028 if the outstanding principal on the 2028 Convertible Notes, as defined below, exceeds $100.0 million and the Company exceeds certain leverage ratios as of that date.
Depending on the Company’s total leverage ratio, borrowings under the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at either the Adjusted Term SOFR plus a margin of between 5.50% and 6.50%, or the base rate plus a margin of between 4.50% and 5.50%. The Company pays a commitment fee on the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility of, depending on the Company’s total leverage ratio, between 0.35% to 0.45% per annum on the undrawn portion of the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility. The 2024 Revolving Credit Facility matures upon the earlier of (i)April 12, 2028, or (ii)December 16, 2027 if the outstanding principal on the 2028 Convertible Notes, as defined below, exceeds $100.0 million and the Company exceeds certain leverage ratios as of that date.

In addition, the 2024 Credit Facility contains customary events of default. The 2024 Revolving Credit Facility requires the Company to maintain a maximum total leverage ratio of 4.50:1.00 through December 31, 2024, stepping down to 4.25:1.00 on March 31, 2025 and 4.00:1.00 at September 30, 2025 and thereafter.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $13.6 million of Mexico VAT-related assets, of which $13.5 million was recognized in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $0.1 million was recognized in other assets within its condensed consolidated balance sheet. This amount relates to VAT payments made over various periods and the Company believes these amounts are recoverable by refund or they may be applied against certain future tax liabilities. Effective January 1, 2019, a tax reform law changed the rules concerning possible use of VAT assets, specifically providing that, for VAT balances generated after December 31, 2018, those balances could not be offset against taxes other than VAT obligations currently due. The Company has not recognized any losses related to these VAT-related assets as the Company does not believe a loss is probable.
In addition, the Mexican Tax Administration Service audited the Company’s various tax filings for the 2019 year. During July 2024, the Company received a tax assessment for its 2019 tax year of approximately $24.1 million, translated at the March 31, 2026 spot rate, relating to the VAT rate that was primarily applicable to certain of the Company’s products that were previously imported into Mexico. The Company filed a formal administrative appeal process in September 2024. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses. The Company has not recognized a loss as the Company does not believe a loss is probable.
The Company has received tax assessments for multiple years from the Federal Revenue Office of Brazil related to withholding/contributions based on payments to the Company’s Members. In February 2022, the Company received a mixed verdict related to the 2004 tax assessment which reduced the exposure to the Company. The aggregate combined amount of all these assessments is equivalent to approximately $16.6 million, translated at the March 31, 2026 spot rate. The Company is currently litigating these assessments and has provided a surety bond for certain of these amounts. The Company has not accrued a loss for the majority of the assessments because the Company does not believe a loss is probable. The Company is currently unable to reasonably estimate the amount of the loss that may result from an unfavorable outcome if additional assessments for other periods were to be issued.
The Company is under examination in several Brazilian states related to its indirect taxes, such as ICMS and ICMS-ST taxation. Some of these examinations have resulted in assessments for underpaid tax that the Company has appealed. The State of São Paulo has audited the Company for the 2013 and 2014 tax years. During July 2016 and August 2017, for the State of São Paulo, the Company received assessments in the aggregate amount of approximately $30.6 million and approximately $11.4 million, respectively, translated at the March 31, 2026 spot rate, relating to various ICMS issues for its 2013 and 2014 tax years, respectively. The Company appealed both of these assessments. The Company received an unfavorable decision at the Third Level Administrative Court on the 2013 tax year case and in November 2023, the Company provided a surety bond to the Court and an undrawn letter of credit to the surety bond issuer, each for approximately $45 million, in order to litigate the case at the Judicial level. During August 2024, the Company received an unfavorable decision at the Third Level Administrative Court on the 2014 tax year case, and subsequently, the Company provided a surety bond to the Court for approximately $20 million and an undrawn letter of credit to the surety bond issuer for approximately $15 million in order to litigate the case at the Judicial level. The Company is continuing to litigate both of these assessments. Separately, the State of São Paulo is auditing the Company for the 2017 to 2023 tax years, and during December 2023, March 2024, June 2024, and August 2024, the Company received assessments in the aggregate amount of approximately $44.1 million, approximately $27.8 million, approximately $16.7 million, and approximately $12.2 million, respectively, translated at the March 31, 2026 spot rate, relating to various ICMS issues for its 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021 tax years, respectively. In June 2025, the Company received a favorable ruling from the Second Level Administrative Court regarding its 2018 tax year case. The Tax Authority did not file an appeal and the 2018 tax year case was subsequently closed as of August 2025. The 2019 tax year case previously received a favorable ruling at the First Level Administrative Court; however, in February 2026, the matter was remanded back to the First Level Administrative Court for further review. The 2020 through 2021 tax year cases have received favorable verdicts at the First Level Administrative Court and are currently pending a decision at the Second Level Administrative Court. The Company has not recognized a loss relating to any of these cases, assessments, and matters as the Company does not believe a loss is probable.
During September 2018, for the State of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, the Company received an assessment in the aggregate amount of approximately $6.7 million, translated at the March 31, 2026 spot rate, relating to various ICMS-ST issues for its 2016 and 2017 tax years. The Company is appealing this assessment and the case is at the First Level Judicial Court. The Company has also received other ICMS tax assessments in Brazil. During the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company filed appeals with state judicial courts against three of the assessments. The Company had provided surety bonds in the aggregate amount of $12.1 million, translated at the March 31, 2026 spot rate, to guarantee payment of some of the tax assessments as required while the Company pursues the appeals. In addition, the Company has received several ICMS tax assessments in the aggregate amount of $4.4 million, translated at the March 31, 2026 spot rate, from several other Brazilian states where surety bonds have not been issued. Litigation in all these cases is currently ongoing. The Company has not recognized a loss relating to any of these cases, assessments, and matters as the Company does not believe a loss is probable.
The Company has received various tax assessments in multiple jurisdictions in India for multiple years from the Indian VAT and Service Tax authorities in an amount equivalent to approximately $10.8 million, translated at the March 31, 2026 spot rate. These assessments are for underpaid VAT and the ability to claim input Service Tax credits. The Company is litigating these cases at the tax administrative level and the judicial levels as it believes it has meritorious defenses. The Company has not recognized a loss as it does not believe a loss is probable. In addition, the Indian income tax authorities audited the Company’s fiscal years ended March 31, 2017, 2018, 2020, 2021, and 2022 and the Company has received assessments for tax and interest of approximately $15.3 million,$14.9 million, $19.5 million, $17.3 million, and $31.9 millionfor those respective years, translated at the March 31, 2026 spot rate. These assessments are subject to interest and penalty adjustments. For the assessments related to fiscal years March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018, the Company received a favorable verdict at the Tax Tribunal level; however, the government has appealed these verdicts to the High Court. The Company intends to litigate these cases for fiscal years ended March 31, 2017, 2018, 2020, 2021, and 2022. The Company currently believes that it is more likely than not that it will be successful in supporting its positions relating to these assessments. Accordingly, the Company has not accrued any amounts relating to these matters. In addition, the Indian income tax authorities are auditing multiple years and it is uncertain whether additional assessments will be received.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company has unutilized excess Goods and Services Tax (“GST”) input credits in India which have begun accumulating following amendments to the India GST Law that became effective during September 2025. Under applicable regulations, these credits may be applied against future GST liabilities in India or may be eligible for refund from the India government. The Company does not expect to generate sufficient future GST liabilities to utilize all of these GST input credits, and the likelihood of receiving a cash refund for certain credits remains uncertain; accordingly, no asset has been recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the excess GST input credits. These amounts are expensed when the Company determines that recoverability or utilization is uncertain. The Company will recognize the benefit of these input credits only if the underlying uncertainty is resolved and realization of the credits becomes expected. The Company intends to pursue certain strategies, which may include litigation, to recover or utilize these excess GST input credits; however, the outcome remains uncertain. As of March 31, 2026, the Company has recognized approximately $10 million in current assets within the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets for GST input credits that are refundable from the India government and for which recoverability is reasonably assured based on government regulations.

On December 28, 2022, the Court partially granted a motion to dismiss counterclaims, leaving only breach of contract, promissory estoppel, and declaratory relief counterclaims. Summary judgment motions were filed, and the Court denied the defendant’s motion for summary judgment and partially granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment on March 18, 2024. Trial went forward on April 8, 2025 and resulted in a verdict in favor of the Company, including a total judgment of $1.5 million on the Company’s fraudulent concealment claim and defeat of the defendant’s promissory estoppel claim. On August 29, 2025, the Court denied defendant’s motion for a new trial, except as to punitive damages, which is set for trial on September 8, 2026.
On October 31, 2024, the Company and certain of its executive officers were named as defendants in a purported class action lawsuit filed in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, titled Sarah DeSimone v. Herbalife Ltd. et al. The complaint alleges violations of the California Labor Code, including misclassification of distributors as independent contractors. Plaintiff filed an amended complaint on February 21, 2025 to assert claims under the California Private Attorneys General Act. The plaintiff seeks damages in an unspecified amount. The Company will vigorously defend itself against the claims in the lawsuit. The Company is currently unable to reasonably estimate the amount of the loss that may result from an unfavorable outcome and does not believe a loss is probable.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company sold products in 95 markets throughout the worldand was organized and managed by five geographic regions: North America, Latin America, EMEA, Asia Pacific, and China. The Company defines its operating segments as those geographical operations. The Company aggregates its operating segments, excluding China, into a reporting segment, or the Primary Reporting Segment, as management believes that the Company’s operating segments have similar operating characteristics and similar long-term operating performance. In making this determination, management believes that the operating segments are similar in the nature of the products sold, the product acquisition process, the types of customers to whom products are sold, the methods used to distribute the products, the nature of the regulatory environment, and their economic characteristics. China has been identified as a separate reporting segment as it does not meet the criteria for aggregation. The Company determined the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) as its Chief Executive Officer. The CODM reviews financial information, including net sales and contribution margin by operating segment, in order to determine how to allocate the Company’s resources across its operating segments, and reviews its assets and capital expenditures on a consolidated basis and not by operating segment. Therefore, net sales and contribution margin are presented by reportable segment and assets and capital expenditures by segment are not presented.

- Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Foreign Currency Instruments
The Company designates certain foreign currency derivatives, primarily comprised of foreign currency forward contracts and option contracts, as freestanding derivatives for which hedge accounting does not apply. The changes in the fair market value of these freestanding derivatives are included in general and administrative expenses within the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income. The Company primarily uses freestanding foreign currency derivatives to hedge foreign currency-denominated intercompany transactions and to partially mitigate the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. The fair value of the freestanding foreign currency derivatives is based on third-party quotes. The Company’s foreign currency derivative contracts are generally executed on a monthly basis.
The Company designates as cash flow hedges those foreign currency forward contracts it enters into to hedge forecasted inventory purchases and intercompany management fees that are subject to foreign currency exposures. Forward contracts are used to hedge forecasted inventory purchases over specific months. Changes in the fair value of these forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges, excluding forward points, are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss within shareholders’ deficit, and are recognized in cost of sales within the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of income during the period which approximates the time the hedged inventory is sold. The Company also hedges forecasted intercompany management fees over specific months. These contracts allow the Company to sell Euros in exchange for U.S. dollars at specified contract rates. Changes in the fair value of these forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges, excluding forward points, are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss within shareholders’ deficit, and are recognized in general and administrative expenses within the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of income during the period when the hedged item and underlying transaction affect earnings. The Company has elected to record changes in the fair value of amounts excluded from the assessment of effectiveness currently in earnings.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the aggregate notional amounts of all foreign currency contracts outstanding designated as cash flow hedges were approximately $74.4 million and $75.4 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, these outstanding contracts were expected to mature over the next fourteen months. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value based on third-party quotes. As of March 31, 2026, the Company recorded assets at fair value of $0.1 million and liabilities at fair value of $3.6 million relating to all outstanding foreign currency contracts designated as cash flow hedges. As of December 31, 2025, the Company recorded assets at fair value ofzero and liabilities at fair value of $4.5 million relating to all outstanding foreign currency contracts designated as cash flow hedges. The Company assesses hedge effectiveness at least quarterly and the hedges remained effective as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
As of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the majority of the Company’s outstanding foreign currency forward contracts related to freestanding derivatives had maturity dates of less than twelve months with the majority expiring withinone month. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had aggregate notional amounts of approximately $753.1 million of foreign currency contracts, inclusive of freestanding contracts and contracts designated as cash flow hedges. Cash flows resulting from the Company's derivative instruments are classified as operating activities in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

The 2024 Credit Facility permits the Company to repurchase its common shares as long as no default or event of default exists and other conditions, such as specified consolidated leverage ratios, are met.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company didnot repurchase any of its common shares through open-market purchases.
The number of shares issued upon vesting or exercise for certain restricted stock units and SARs granted pursuant to the Company’s share-based compensation plans is net of the statutory withholding requirements that the Company pays on behalf of its employees. Although shares withheld are not issued, they are treated as common share repurchases in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, as they reduce the number of shares that would have been issued upon vesting. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company withheld shares on its vested restricted stock units and exercised SARs relating to its share-based compensation plans.
The Company reflects the aggregate purchase price of its common shares repurchased as an increase to shareholders’ deficit. The Company generally allocates the purchase price of the repurchased shares to accumulated deficit, common shares and additional paid-in capital.
For both the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company’s share repurchases, inclusive of transaction costs, were $0.7 million and $2.2 million, respectively, due to shares withheld for tax purposes related to the Company’s share-based compensation plans and have been recorded as an increase to shareholders’ deficit within the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

- Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share represents net income attributable to Herbalife divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share represents net income attributable to Herbalife divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, inclusive of the effect of dilutive securities, such as outstanding SARs, restricted stock units, and convertible notes.
The following are the common share amounts used to compute the basic and diluted earnings per share for each period:
| Three Months Ended | ||
|---|---|---|
| March 31,2026 | March 31,2025 | |
| (in millions) | ||
| Weighted-average shares used in basic computations | 103.8 | 101.5 |
| Dilutive effect of exercise of equity grants outstanding | 4.6 | 0.7 |
| Weighted-average shares used in diluted computations | 108.4 | 102.2 |
There were an aggregate of 8.8 million and 15.1 million of equity grants, consisting of SARs and restricted stock units, that were outstanding during thethree months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive or the performance condition of the award had not been satisfied.
For the 2028 Convertible Notes, the Company is required to settle the principal amount in cash and has the option to settle the conversion feature for the amount above the conversion price, or the conversion spread, in cash or common shares and cash. The Company uses the if-converted method for calculating any potential dilutive effect of the conversion spread on diluted earnings per share, if applicable. The conversion spread will have a dilutive impact on diluted earnings per share when the average market price of the Company’s common shares for a given period exceeds the conversion price of the 2028 Convertible Notes. For both the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the 2028 Convertible Notes have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share, as the effect would be anti-dilutive since the conversion price of the 2028 Convertible Notes exceeded the average market price of the Company’s common shares for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. The initial conversion rate and conversion price for the 2028 Convertible Notes are described further in Note 4, Long-Term Debt.
- Fair Value Measurements
The Company applies the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, or ASC 820, for its financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into three broad levels as follows:
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The Company measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value as discussed throughout the notes to its condensed consolidated financial statements. Foreign exchange currency contracts are valued using standard calculations and models. Foreign exchange currency contracts are valued primarily based on inputs such as observable forward rates, spot rates, and foreign currency exchange rates at the reporting period ended date. The Company’s derivative assets and liabilities are measured at fair value and consisted of Level 2 inputs and their amounts are shown below at their gross values as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025:
| Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Fair Value as of March 31,2026 | Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Fair Value as of December 31,2025 | Balance Sheet Location | |

| $7.2 | $6.0 | ||
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of money market funds and foreign and domestic bank accounts. These cash and cash equivalents are valued based on Level 1 inputs which consist of quoted prices in active markets. To reduce its credit risk, the Company monitors the credit standing of the financial institutions that hold the Company’s cash and cash equivalents.
The Company’s deferred compensation plan assets consist of Company-owned life insurance policies. As these policies are recorded at their cash surrender value, they are not required to be included in the fair value table above. See Note 6, Employee Compensation Plans, to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2025 10-K for a further description of the Company’s deferred compensation plan assets.
The following tables summarize the offsetting of the fair values of the Company’s derivative assets and derivative liabilities for presentation in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025:
| Offsetting of Derivative Assets | |||

The Company offsets all of its derivative assets and derivative liabilities in its condensed consolidated balance sheets to the extent it maintains master netting arrangements with related financial institutions. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, all of the Company’s derivatives were subject to master netting arrangements and no collateralization was required for the Company’s derivative assets and derivative liabilities.
- Restructuring Activities
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company initiated an organizational redesign project, or the Restructuring Program, to streamline its organizational structure to make it more efficient and effective and to allow the Company’s management team to work more closely with the markets, distributors, and customers. The Company incurred total pre-tax expenses of approximately $76.1 million through the end of the Restructuring Program, which was completed as of December 31, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company incurred $3.3 million of pre-tax expenses which were recognized in general and administrative expenses within its condensed consolidated statement of income.

During April 2025, the Company initiated a process and organizational redesign project of its global technology infrastructure, or the Technology Realignment Program, to better align with new technologies, enhance operational efficiency, and optimize support of business goals and processes. The Company has incurred total pre-tax expenses of approximately $11.5 million through March 31, 2026, of which $2.4 million andzero for thethree months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, were recognized in general and administrative expenses within its condensed consolidated statements of income. The Company expects to incur total pre-tax expenses ofapproximately $15 million based on actual expenses incurred to date and expected future expenses. Since the Technology Realignment Program is still ongoing and is expected to be completed in 2026, these estimated amounts are preliminary and based on the Company’s estimates and actual results could differ from such estimates.

- Subsequent Events
2026 Senior Secured Debt Refinancing
During April 2026, the Company issued $800 million aggregate principal amount of 7.750% senior secured notes due 2033, or the 2033 Secured Notes, in a private offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers, pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and outside the United States to non-US persons in offshore transactions pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The 2033 Secured Notes are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by each of the Company and the Company’s existing and future subsidiaries that is a guarantor of the obligations of any domestic borrower under the Company’s senior secured credit facility. The 2033 Secured Notes pay interest at a rate of 7.750% per annum payable semiannually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning on November 1, 2026. The 2033 Secured Notes mature on May 1, 2033. The 2033 Secured Notes were sold at 100.00% of par, and the Company estimates its debt issuance cost in connection with the 2033 Secured Notes to be approximately $15 million. The Company expects to recognize an initial carrying value of approximately $785 million in debt related to the 2033 Secured Notes.
At any time prior to May 1, 2029, the Company may redeem all or part of the 2033 Secured Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus a “make whole” premium as of the redemption date and accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. In addition, at any time prior to May 1, 2029, the Company may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2033 Secured Notes with the proceeds of one or more equity offerings, at a redemption price equal to 107.750%, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Furthermore, the Company may redeem all or part of the 2033 Secured Notes at the following redemption prices, expressed as percentages of principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on May 1 of the years indicated below:
| Percentage | |
|---|---|
| 2029 | 103.875% |
| 2030 | 101.938% |
| 2031 and thereafter | 100.000% |
Concurrently with the issuance of the 2033 Secured Notes, the Company amended the 2024 Credit Facility. The amendments to the 2024 Credit Facility, among other things, refinanced and replaced in full the 2024 Credit Facility with, (i) a Term Loan A, or 2026 Term Loan A, with an aggregate principal amount of $225 million and (ii) a revolving credit facility, or 2026 Revolving Credit Facility, with an aggregate principal amount of $425 million, collectively the 2026 Credit Facility. In connection with these amendments and the refinancing of the Company’s debt, the Company also borrowed $200 million on its $425 million 2026 Revolving Credit Facility as of the refinancing date. The 2026 Term Loan A was issued to the lenders at a 100.0% of par, and the Company estimates its debt issuance cost in connection with the amended 2026 Credit Facility to be approximately $4 million for each of the 2026 Term Loan A and 2026 Revolving Credit Facility, in total debt issuance costs of approximately $8 million related to the 2026 Credit Facility. The 2026 Term Loan A requires quarterly payments equal to 5.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Term Loan A per annum, commencing with the quarter ending September 2026. The Company expects to recognize an initial carrying value of approximately $221 million in debt related to its 2026 Term Loan A.
Proceeds from the 2026 Credit Facility together with the proceeds from the 2033 Secured Notes and available cash, were used to repay its $365.0 million outstanding principal balance on its 2024 Term Loan B and fully redeem its $800.0 million outstanding principal balance on its 2029 Secured Notes. The 2029 Secured Notes were redeemed at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $853 million, which included $49.0 million related to the call premium and approximately $4 million of accrued interest. For accounting purposes, pursuant to ASC 470, Debt, these transactions are expected to be accounted for as an extinguishment of the 2024 Term Loan B and 2029 Secured Notes. As a result, the Company expects to recognize approximately $343 million and approximately $776 million as a reduction to long-term debt representing the carrying value of the 2024 Term Loan B and 2029 Secured Notes, respectively, as they were repaid and redeemed, as applicable, in full in the second quarter of 2026.
The total preliminary charge related to these refinancing transactions is estimated to be approximately $95 million and represents the Company’s preliminary estimate of the loss on the extinguishment of debt, which will be recorded in other expense, net within the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the second quarter of 2026. The accounting impacts are expected to be finalized during the second quarter of 2026.
After April 29, 2026, the applicable interest rates on the Company’s borrowings under the 2026 Term Loan A and 2026 Revolving Credit Facility, as amended, will bear interest at, depending on the Company’s total leverage ratio, either the Term SOFR plus a margin of between 2.50% and 3.25%, or the base rate plus a margin of between 1.50% and 2.25%. The base rate represents the highest of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, one-month Term SOFR plus 1.00%, and the prime rate quoted by The Wall Street Journal, subject to a floor of 1.00%. The Company will pay a commitment fee on the 2026 Revolving Facility of, depending on the Company’s total leverage ratio, between 0.25% to 0.35% per annum on the undrawn portion of the 2026 Revolving Credit Facility. The 2026 Term Loan A and 2026 Revolving Credit Facility mature upon the earlier of (i) April 29, 2031, or (ii) December 16, 2027 if the outstanding principal on the 2028 Convertible Notes exceeds $250.0 million and the Company exceeds certain leverage ratios as of that date, or (iii) December 1, 2028 if the outstanding principal on the 2029 Notes exceeds $300.0 million and the Company exceeds certain leverage ratios as of that date.
The 2026 Credit Facility contains affirmative, negative and financial covenants customary for financings of this type, including, among other things, limitations or prohibitions on declaring and paying dividends and other distributions, redeeming and repurchasing certain other indebtedness, loans and investments, additional indebtedness, liens, mergers, asset sales and transactions with affiliates. In addition, the 2026 Credit Facility contains customary events of default. The 2026 Term Loan A and 2026 Revolving Credit Facility requires the Company to maintain a maximum total leverage ratio of 4.00:1.00, a maximum first lien net leverage ratio of 2.50:1.00, and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 2.00:1.00.
Bioniq Acquisition
In April 2026, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with BQ Holding Ltd. and its subsidiaries (Bioniq) a UK-based, personalized supplements company, pursuant to which the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Bioniq’s core personalized nutrition business for total base consideration of $55 million. As part of the transaction, Herbalife also obtained a call option to acquire Bioniq LAB, a separate platform focused on small molecules and peptides. The call option expires on December 31, 2031.
The $55 million total base consideration is payable over a five-year period, including an initial payment of $10 million, which was paid subsequent to closing. In addition, the transaction provides for contingent payments of up to an aggregate of $95 million, consisting of multiple milestone-based payments ranging from $5 million to $15 million each, payable to the sellers upon achievement of specified cumulative sales milestones for certain Bioniq products, as defined in the agreement. If the minimum cumulative sales thresholds are not achieved, no additional contingent payments will be required. The contingent consideration period expires on December 31, 2031.
As of March 31, 2026, since the transaction had not closed, no amounts related to the transaction had been recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Subsequent to the closing, the Company will determine the appropriate accounting treatment for the transaction and expects to complete the preliminary purchase price allocation of the purchase consideration to the assets acquired in accordance with U.S. GAAP by the end of the second quarter of 2026.
