MEDIFAST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Medifast, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“Medifast,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) included herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim reporting and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and notes that are normally required by GAAP have been condensed or omitted. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal, recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations have been included and management believes the disclosures that are made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2021 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 (“2021 Form 10-K”).
The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2021 audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, which are included in the 2021 Form 10-K.
Presentation of Financial Statements - The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein include the accounts of the Company. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Reclassification - Certain amounts reported for prior periods have been reclassified to be consistent with the current period presentation. No reclassification in the condensed consolidated financial statements had a material impact on the presentation.
Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in 2022
In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional guidance for a limited time to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying accounting principles under GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met and to other derivative instruments if there is a change to the interest rates used for discounting, margining or contract price alignment. These amendments are effective immediately and may be applied prospectively to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated on or before December 31, 2022. We adopted Topic 848 beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 without any material impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations.
2. INVENTORIES
Inventories consist principally of raw materials, non-food finished goods and packaged meal replacements held in the Company’s warehouses and outsourced distribution centers. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, utilizing the first-in, first-out method. The cost of finished goods includes the cost of raw materials, packaging supplies, direct
8
and indirect labor and other indirect manufacturing costs. On a quarterly basis, management reviews inventories for unsalable or obsolete inventories.
The Company donated inventory with an aggregate cost of $9.4 million to Ukrainian refugees and those in need in Ukraine, increasing SG&A during the three months ended June 30, 2022. The donations were made to two 501(c)(3) organizations that are coordinating the distribution throughout refugee camps in Europe and in Ukraine.
Inventories consisted of the following (in thousands):
| June 30, 2022 | December 31, 2021 | ||||||||||
| Raw materials | $ | 12,942 | $ | 15,196 | |||||||
| Packaging | 2,987 | 3,641 | |||||||||
| Non-food finished goods | 12,810 | 15,991 | |||||||||

| Reserve for obsolete inventory | (3,200) | (7,472) | |||||||||
| Total | $ | 156,974 | $ | 180,043 | |||||||
3. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) computations are calculated utilizing the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted EPS is calculated utilizing the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding adjusted for the effect of dilutive common stock equivalents.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted EPS (in thousands, except per share data):
| Three months ended June 30, | Six months ended June 30, | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2022 | 2021 | 2022 | 2021 | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Numerator: | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Net income | $ | 39,113 | $ | 46,963 | $ | 80,894 | $ | 88,026 | |||||||||||||||
| Denominator: | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding | 11,354 | 11,753 | 11,455 | 11,762 | |||||||||||||||||||
| Effect of dilutive common stock equivalents | 81 | 105 | 79 | 107 | |||||||||||||||||||
| Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding | 11,435 | 11,858 | 11,534 | 11,869 | |||||||||||||||||||
| Earnings per share - basic | $ | 3.44 | $ | 4.00 | $ | 7.06 | $ | 7.48 | |||||||||||||||
| Earnings per share - diluted | $ | 3.42 | $ | 3.96 | $ | 7.01 | $ | 7.42 | |||||||||||||||
The calculation of diluted EPS excluded 3 and 0 antidilutive restricted stock awards for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 1 and 0 antidilutive restricted stock awards for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. EPS is computed independently for each of the periods presented above, and accordingly, the sum of the quarterly earnings per common share may not equal the year-to-date total computed.
4. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
Stock Options
The Company has issued non-qualified and incentive stock options to employees and non-employee directors. The fair value of these options are estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires estimates of the expected term of the option, the risk-free interest rate, the expected volatility of the price of the Company’s common stock, and
9
dividend yield. Options outstanding as of June 30, 2022 generally vest over a period of three years and expire ten years from the date of grant. The exercise price of these options ranges from $26.52 to $66.68. Due to the Company’s lack of option exercise history on the date of grant, the expected term is calculated using the simplified method defined as the midpoint between the vesting period and the contractual term of each option. The risk free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect on the date of grant that most closely corresponds to the expected term of the option. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock over the period of time equivalent to the expected term for each award. The dividend yield is computed as the annualized dividend rate at the grant date divided by the strike price of the stock option. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not grant stock options.
The following table is a summary of our stock option activity (in thousands, except per share data):
| Six months ended June 30, | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2022 | 2021 | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Awards | Weighted-Average Exercise Price | Awards | Weighted-Average Exercise Price | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Outstanding at beginning of period | 33 | $ | 54.98 | 61 | $ | 48.19 | |||||||||||||||||
| Exercised | — | — | (14) | 50.58 | |||||||||||||||||||
| Outstanding at end of the period | 33 | $ | 54.98 | 47 | $ | 47.51 | |||||||||||||||||
| Exercisable at end of the period | 28 | $ | 52.76 | 38 | $ | 42.18 | |||||||||||||||||
As of June 30, 2022, the weighted-average remaining contractual life for outstanding stock options was 4.8 years with an aggregate intrinsic value of $4.2 million and the weighted-average remaining contractual life for exercisable stock options was 4.7 years with an aggregate intrinsic value of $3.6 million. The unrecognized compensation expense calculated under the fair value method for stock options expected to vest as of June 30, 2022 was $0.1 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.6 year. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, there was no exercise activity of stock options. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company received $0.7 million in cash proceeds from the exercise of stock options. The total intrinsic value for stock options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $2.3 million.
Restricted Stock
The Company has issued restricted stock to employees and non-employee directors generally with vesting terms up to five years after the date of grant. The fair value of the restricted stock is equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Expense for restricted stock is amortized ratably over the vesting period.
The following table summarizes our restricted stock activity (in thousands, except per share data):

Market and Performance-based Share Awards
10
The Company has issued market and performance-based share awards to certain key executives who were granted deferred shares and may earn between 0% and 250% of the target number depending upon both the Company's total stockholder return and the Company's performance against predetermined performance goals over a three-year performance period after the date of grant. Market and performance-based share awards that are tied to the Company’s total stockholder return are valued using the Monte Carlo method and are recognized ratably as expense over the award’s performance period. The fair value of the performance-based share awards is equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant adjusted by expected level of achievement over the performance period. Expense for performance-based share awards is amortized ratably over the performance period.

5. LEASES
Operating Leases
The Company has operating leases for office and warehouse space and certain equipment. In certain of the Company’s lease agreements, the rental payments are adjusted periodically based on defined terms within the lease. The Company did not have any finance leases as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, or for the six-month periods then ended, respectively.
11
Our leases relating to office and warehouse space have lease terms of 18 months to 126 months. Our leases relating to equipment have lease terms of 24 months to 203 months, with certain of them having automatic renewal clauses.
The Company’s warehouse agreements also contain non-lease components, in the form of payments towards variable logistics services and labor charges, which the Company is obligated to pay based on the services consumed by it. Such amounts are not included in the measurement of the lease liability but are recognized as expenses when they are incurred.
The operating lease expense was $1.7 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $3.5 million and $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

7. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Certain financial assets and liabilities are accounted for at fair value, which is defined 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. The following fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value:
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies.
Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value from the perspective of a market participant.
The following tables present the Company’s cash and financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis for each of the hierarchy levels (in thousands):

8. DEBT
Credit Agreement
On April 13, 2021, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantors”) entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Company, the Guarantors, the lenders party thereto and Citibank, N.A., in its capacity as administrative agent. On May 31, 2022, the Credit Agreement was amended to increase the borrowing capacity and convert the interest rate to be based on Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), from London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) (the “Amended Credit Agreement”). The Amended Credit Agreement provides for a $225.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility with a $20.0 million letter of credit sublimit. The Amended Credit Agreement also provides for an uncommitted incremental facility that permits the Company, subject to certain conditions, to increase the senior secured revolving credit facility by up to $100.0 million. The Amended Credit Agreement matures on April 13, 2026.
The Company’s obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Guarantors. The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors are secured by first-priority liens on substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Guarantors, subject to certain exceptions.
Under the Amended Credit Agreement, the Company will pay to the administrative agent for the account of each revolving lender a commitment fee on a quarterly basis based on amounts committed but unused under the revolving facility from 0.20% to 0.40% per annum depending on the Company’s Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement). The Company is also obligated to pay the administrative agent customary fees for credit facilities of this size and type.
Revolving borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) the Term SOFR Rate for the interest period plus the Applicable Rate (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) based on the Company’s Total Net Leverage Ratio or (ii) the Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) as in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Rate based on the Company’s Total Net Leverage Ratio. As of June 30, 2022, the Applicable Rate for Term SOFR Loans is 1.25% per annum and the Applicable Rate for ABR Loans is 0.25% per annum. SOFR based loans also include a Credit Spread Adjustment based on the duration of the borrowing.
The Amended Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants customarily applicable to senior secured credit facilities, including covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries, subject to negotiated exceptions, to incur additional indebtedness and additional liens on their assets, engage in mergers or acquisitions or dispose of assets, pay dividends or make other distributions, voluntarily prepay other indebtedness, enter into transactions with affiliated persons, make investments and change the nature of their businesses. The Amended Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, subject to thresholds and grace periods, including, among others, payment default, covenant default, cross default to other material indebtedness and judgment default. In addition, the Amended Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a Total Net Leverage Ratio of no more than 2.75 to 1.00 and an Interest Coverage Ratio of at least 3.50 to 1.00.
The Company has $27.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the Amended Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2022.
9. ACCELERATED SHARE REPURCHASE (“ASR”) PROGRAM
In the second quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company entered into an ASR agreement with JPMorgan Chase, National Association ("JPMorgan Chase") to purchase shares of its common stock from JPMorgan Chase for an aggregate purchase price of $100.0 million. Pursuant to the ASR program, the Company received an initial delivery of approximately 480 thousand shares of common stock based on the closing price of the common stock on May 31, 2022. As a result, approximately $20.0 million remains at JPMorgan Chase for additional repurchases until the completion of the ASR program. The final number of shares that will be delivered to the Company under the ASR agreement will be based on the average of the daily volume-weighted average trading prices of the Company’s common stock during the term of the ASR program, less a discount. The Company expects to receive the remaining shares no later than October 3, 2022. The effect of the potential share settlement is excluded in the diluted EPS calculation as the effect is anti-dilutive.

These forward-looking statements generally can be identified by use of phrases or terminology such as "intend," “anticipate,” “expect” or other similar words or the negative of such terminology. Similarly, descriptions of Medifast's objectives, strategies, plans, goals or targets contained herein are also considered forward-looking statements. These statements are based on the current expectations of our management and are subject to certain events, risks, uncertainties and other factors. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in our 2021 Form 10-K and those described from time to time in our future reports filed with the SEC. Although Medifast believes that the expectations, statements and assumptions reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, it cautions readers to always consider all of the risk factors and any other cautionary statements carefully in evaluating each forward-looking statement in this report. All of the forward-looking statements contained herein speak only as of the date of this report.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere herein.
Overview
Medifast is the global company behind one of the fastest-growing health and wellness communities, OPTAVIA®, which offers Lifelong Transformation, One Healthy Habit at a Time®. Reflecting the success of our holistic approach to health and wellness, we have consistently grown revenue over the past five years. Of equal importance, we expect our differentiated model to continue to deliver growth in the foreseeable future.
Our OPTAVIA brand offers a highly competitive and effective lifestyle solution centered on developing new healthy habits through smaller, foundational changes called micro-habits. The program is built around four key components:
•Independent OPTAVIA Coaches: Provide individualized support and guidance to customers on the path to optimal health and wellbeing.
•OPTAVIA Community: A Community of like-hearted people providing each other with real-time connection and support.
•The Habits of Health® Transformational System: A proprietary system which offers easy steps to a sustainably healthy lifestyle.
•Products & Plans: Clinically proven plans and scientifically developed products, called “Fuelings,” backed by dietitians, scientists and physicians.
We help customers achieve their health goals through a network of approximately 68,000 independent OPTAVIA Coaches, about 90% of whom were customers first, and have impacted more than 2 million lives to date. OPTAVIA Coaches introduce customers to a set of healthy habits, in most cases starting with the habit of healthy eating, and offer exclusive Fuelings, which are nutrient-dense, portion-controlled, nutritionally interchangeable and simple to use. They are formulated with high-quality ingredients and are fortified with probiotic cultures, vitamins and minerals, as well as other nutrients essential for good health. Our products support the process of integrating healthy habits into our customer’s day-to-day lives.
The OPTAVIA coaching model is customer-centric and boasts an energized health and wellness community. It promotes holistic health and wellness and positions healthy weight as a catalyst to greater lifestyle changes. OPTAVIA Coaches provide personalized support to customers and motivate them by sharing their passion for healthy living and lifestyle transformation. We believe this personal coaching is an essential factor in customer success based on findings from a clinical study published in Obesity Science and Practice in 2018, which validated the effectiveness of combining the OPTAVIA meal plan with education and support consistent with that was provided by OPTAVIA Coaches.
The entrepreneurial spirit of our OPTAVIA Coaches is another key to our success, as they create a continuous cycle of growth, activating new customers, many of whom go on to become OPTAVIA Coaches. We offer economic incentives designed to support each OPTAVIA Coach’s long-term success, which we believe plays an important role in their financial wellness,
15
providing the opportunity to improve their finances while changing the health trajectory of families, communities and generations.1
OPTAVIA Coaches are independent contractors, not employees, who support customers and market our products and services primarily through word of mouth, email and social media channels such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and video conferencing platforms. As entrepreneurs, OPTAVIA Coaches market our products to friends, family and other acquaintances. OPTAVIA products are shipped directly to OPTAVIA customers who are working with an OPTAVIA Coach. OPTAVIA Coaches do not handle or deliver merchandise to customers. This arrangement frees our OPTAVIA Coaches from having to manage inventory and allows them to maintain an arms-length transactional relationship while focusing their attention on support and encouragement.
We are one of the fastest growing health and wellness companies in the United States ("U.S."), with a large and growing market opportunity. We believe our coach-based model is scalable and drives both customer success and growth. We expect our continued investment in fostering a robust community around our OPTAVIA brand and our OPTAVIA Coaching model will continue to drive a sustainable, repeatable business rhythm focused on our mission of offering the world Lifelong Transformation, One Healthy Habit at a Time.
Our operations are conducted through our wholly owned subsidiaries, Jason Pharmaceuticals, Inc., OPTAVIA, LLC, Jason Enterprises, Inc., Jason Properties, LLC, Medifast Franchise Systems, Inc., Seven Crondall Associates, LLC, Corporate Events, Inc., OPTAVIA (Hong Kong) Limited, OPTAVIA (Singapore) PTE. LTD and OPTAVIA Health Consultation (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.
As we previously disclosed, global expansion is an important component of our long-term growth strategy. In July 2019, we commenced our international operations, entering into the Asia Pacific markets of Hong Kong and Singapore. Our decision to enter these markets was based on industry market research that reflects a dynamic shift in how health care is being prioritized and consumed in those countries. We outsource a distribution center in Hong Kong to provide adequate product distribution capacity for the foreseeable future in these markets.
COVID-19 Update
A novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) surfaced in late 2019 and has spread around the world, including to the U.S. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a worldwide pandemic.
In response to the pandemic, many governments implemented policies intended to stop or slow the further spread of the disease, such as social distancing guidelines, shelter-in-place orders and other measures. Nutritional supplements and health foods have been designated critical/essential infrastructure in the U.S. As a manufacturer and distributor of these products our manufacturing and distribution facilities remain fully operational to date and we have not experienced any meaningful disruption to our worldwide supply chain. The Company’s priorities during the COVID-19 pandemic continue to be protecting the health and safety of our employees and OPTAVIA Coaches, and their families, and we have undertaken numerous steps and instituted additional precautions to protect their safety and well-being, including:
•enhanced safety protocols, limiting visitation to our plant and distribution center and rolling out additional sick leave (crisis pay) for our onsite essential employees;
•through the majority of 2021, our non-essential employees continued to work from home. Effective October 2021, the Company implemented a hybrid work approach which enables our non-essential employees the flexibility to work partially from home and partially from the office;
•established additional health and safety precautions in our headquarters and manufacturing and distribution centers, including use of personal protective equipment and frequent hand sanitization;
•created process controls in relation to social distancing, visitors, travel and quarantine; and
•organized 16 vaccination clinics in partnership with the health department across all our operations.

Please see the OPTAVIA Income Disclosure Statement (http://bit.ly/idsOPTAVIA) for statistics on actual earnings of Coaches.

Although vaccines are available in various countries where we operate, it is possible the COVID-19 pandemic could further impact our operations and the operations of our suppliers and vendors, particularly in light of the potential of variant strains of the virus to cause a resumption of high levels of infection and hospitalization. Should that occur, the extent to which the pandemic ultimately impacts the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and liquidity may differ from management’s current expectations. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from management’s expectations include inherent uncertainties regarding the duration and further spread of the outbreak, its severity, government actions taken to contain the virus or treat its impact, changes in consumer behavior resulting from the pandemic and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. The senior management team meets regularly to review and assess the status of the Company’s operations and the health and safety of its various constituencies, and will continue to proactively respond to the situation and communicate with our supply chain partners to identify and mitigate risk and to manage inventory levels. The Company may take further actions that alter its business operations as may be required by governmental authorities, or that are determined to be in the best interests of employees, OPTAVIA Coaches and customers.
These uncertainties make it challenging for our management to estimate our future business performance. However, we intend to continue to actively monitor the impact of COVID-19 and related developments on our business and will update our practices accordingly, as we have done throughout the pandemic.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial statements included in the 2021 Form 10-K. We consider all of our significant accounting policies and estimates to be critical. There were no significant changes in our critical accounting policies during the first six months of 2022.
The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management develops, and changes periodically, these estimates and assumptions based on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. There were no significant changes in our critical estimates during the first six months of 2022.
Overview of Results of Operations
Our product sales accounted for approximately 98.0% of our revenues for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The year-over-year growth in revenue was primarily driven by the increase in the number of active earning OPTAVIA Coaches and in the productivity per active earning OPTAVIA Coach.
Cost of sales: Cost of sales increased $31.2 million, or 31.0%, to $131.7 million from $100.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from the corresponding period in 2021 and increased $54.4 million, or 28.2%, to $247.0 million from $192.6 million from the corresponding period in 2021. The increase in cost of sales was primarily driven by an increase in OPTAVIA product sales and higher product costs resulting from inflation in raw ingredient costs, and labor costs. In addition, acceleration of demand for OPTAVIA-branded products led to the increase in the Company’s use of co-manufacturers, which further increased cost of sales.
Gross profit: For the three months ended June 30, 2022, gross profit increased $28.0 million, or 9.5%, to $321.7 million from $293.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. As a percentage of revenue, gross profit decreased 350 basis points to 71.0% for 2022 from 74.5% for 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, gross profit increased $81.7 million, or 15.1%, to $624.0 million from $542.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in gross profit was primarily attributable to higher revenue partially offset by increased cost of sales. As a percentage of revenue, gross profit decreased 220 basis points to 71.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from 73.8% for the corresponding period in 2021. The decrease in gross margin percentage for the first half of 2022 was primarily due to a customer acquisition program and higher product costs resulting from inflation in raw ingredient costs, and labor costs.

Selling, general, and administrative: Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $272.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $40.4 million, or 17.4%, as compared to $232.3 million from the corresponding period in 2021. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expenses were 60.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to 58.9% for the corresponding period in 2021. SG&A expenses included research and development costs of $1.2 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, in connection with the development of new products and programs and clinical research activities. Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $519.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $91.9 million, or 21.5%, as compared to $428.0 million from the corresponding period in 2021. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expenses were 59.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to 58.2% for the corresponding period in 2021. SG&A expenses included research and development costs of $2.2 million and $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, in connection with the development of new products and programs and clinical research activities. The increase in SG&A expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to higher OPTAVIA Coach compensation expense, donations made to the Ukraine refugees, incremental costs related to continued investment in information technology and distribution infrastructure, as well as the increased credit card fees resulting from higher sales.
Non-GAAP adjusted SG&A expenses were $263.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $31.0 million, or 13.4%, as compared to $232.3 million from the corresponding period in 2021. Non-GAAP adjusted SG&A expenses were $510.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $82.5 million, or 19.3%, as compared to 428.0 million from the corresponding period in 2021. Non-GAAP adjusted SG&A excludes expenses in connection with the Ukraine Donations of $9.4 million. Refer to “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below for a reconciliation of each of Non-GAAP financial measures to its most comparable GAAP financial measure.
OPTAVIA Coach compensation expense, which is a variable expense, increased $28.2 million, or 16.4%, to $200.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from $172.4 million for the corresponding period in 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, OPTAVIA compensation expense increased $64.9 million, or 20.4%, to $383.6 million from $318.7 million for the corresponding period in 2021. The increase was primarily the result of increased OPTAVIA product sales. The total number of active earning OPTAVIA Coaches for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased to 68,000 from 59,200 for the corresponding period in 2021, an increase of 14.9%.
Income from operations: For the three months ended June 30, 2022, income from operations decreased $12.5 million to $49.0 million from $61.4 million for the corresponding period in 2021 primarily as a result of increased SG&A expenses partially offset by increased gross profit. Income from operations as a percentage of revenue decreased to 10.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 from 15.6% for the corresponding period in 2021 due to the factors described above impacting gross profit and SG&A expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, income from operations decreased $10.2 million to $104.1 million from $114.2 million for the corresponding period in 2021 primarily as a result of increased SG&A expenses partially offset by increased gross profit. Income from operations as a percentage of revenue decreased to 11.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from 15.5% for the corresponding period in 2021.
Non-GAAP adjusted income from operations was $58.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $3.0 million, or 5.0%, as compared to $61.4 million from the corresponding period in 2021. Non-GAAP adjusted income from operations was $113.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $0.7 million, or 0.7%, as compared to $114.2 million from the corresponding period in 2021. Refer to “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below for a reconciliation of each of Non-GAAP financial measures to its most comparable GAAP financial measure.
Provision for income taxes: For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded $9.7 million in income tax expense, an effective tax rate of 19.8%, as compared to $14.4 million in income tax expense, an effective tax rate of 23.4%, for the three months ended June 30, 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded $22.9 million in income tax expense, an effective tax rate of 22.0%, as compared to $26.2 million in income tax expense, an effective tax rate of 22.9%, for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily driven by the tax benefit for inventory donations in the quarter, partially offset by an increase in state income tax rate and a decrease in the tax benefit of stock compensation.
Non-GAAP adjusted income tax provision was $13.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, an effective tax rate of 23.9% as compared to 23.4% for the corresponding period in 2021. Non-GAAP adjusted income tax provision was $27.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an effective tax rate of 24.0%, as compared to 22.9% for the corresponding period in 2021. Refer to “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below for a reconciliation of each of Non-GAAP financial measures to its most comparable GAAP financial measure.

Net income: Net income was $39.1 million and $80.9 million, or $3.42 and $7.01 per diluted share, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to $47.0 million and $88.0 million, or $3.96 and $7.42 per diluted share, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The period-over-period changes were driven by the factors described above in the section titled "Income from operations."
Non-GAAP adjusted net income was $44.3 million or $3.87 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to $3.96 per diluted share for the corresponding period in 2021. Non-GAAP adjusted net income was $86.1 million or $7.46 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to $7.42 per diluted share for the corresponding period in 2021.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding our results as determined by GAAP, we disclose various non-GAAP financial measures in this quarterly report, our quarterly earnings press release and other public disclosures. The following GAAP financial measures have been presented on an as-adjusted basis: SG&A expenses, income from operations, provision for income taxes, net income and diluted earnings per share. Each of these as-adjusted financial measures excludes the impact of certain amounts related to our donations to Ukrainian refugees as further identified below and have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to its most comparable GAAP financial measure is included below. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to replace GAAP financial measures.
We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally to evaluate and manage the Company’s operations because we believe they provide useful supplemental information regarding the Company’s on-going economic performance. We have chosen to provide this information to investors to enable them to perform more meaningful comparisons of operating results and as a means to emphasize the results of on-going operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company had stockholders’ equity of $129.5 million and working capital of $55.1 million at June 30, 2022 as compared with $202.5 million and $137.0 million at December 31, 2021, respectively. The $73.0 million net decrease in stockholders’
21
equity reflects $80.9 million in net income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 offset by $120.0 million in repurchases of the Company’s common stock and $37.7 million for declared dividends paid to holders of the Company’s common stock as well as the other equity transactions described in the “Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity” included in this report. The Company declared a quarterly dividend of $1.64 per share on June 16, 2022, to stockholders of record as of June 28, 2022 that will be paid in the third quarter of 2022. While we intend to continue the dividend program and believe we will have sufficient liquidity to do so, we can provide no assurance that we will be able to continue to declare and pay dividends. The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and investment securities decreased from $109.5 million at December 31, 2021 to $61.1 million at June 30, 2022.
Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $1.2 million to $87.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $86.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily driven by a $65.5 million increase related to changes in inventory balances offset by a reduction in net income, as well as decreases related to changes in certain balance sheet accounts, including prepaid income taxes $7.6 million, other assets $7.4 million and accounts payable and accrued expenses $50.9 million. We continued to expand our cloud computing technology capabilities to support our planned growth during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Net cash used in investing activities was $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to $7.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Net cash used in financing activities increased by $79.2 million to $130.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $51.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was primarily due to the $100 million accelerated share repurchase ("ASR") program and $5.5 million increase in cash dividends paid to stockholders, partially offset by borrowings under the revolving credit facility in the amount of $27.0 million. Under the terms of the ASR agreement, approximately 480 thousand shares were delivered in the second quarter of 2022, with the remainder to be delivered at termination of the agreement, on or before October 3, 2022.
In pursuing its business strategy, the Company may require additional cash for operating and investing activities. The Company expects future cash requirements, if any, to be funded from operating cash flow and financing activities.
From time to time the Company evaluates potential acquisitions that complement our business. If consummated, any such transactions may use a portion of our working capital or require the issuance of equity or debt. We have no present understandings, commitments or agreements with respect to any material acquisitions.
On April 13, 2021, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantors”) entered into a credit agreement among the Company, the Guarantors, the lenders party thereto and Citibank, N.A., in its capacity as administrative agent. On May 31, 2022, the Credit Agreement was amended to increase the borrowing capacity and convert the interest rate to be based on SOFR, from LIBOR (the “Amended Credit Agreement”). The Amended Credit Agreement provides for a $225.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility with a $20.0 million letter of credit sublimit. The Amended Credit Agreement also provides for an uncommitted incremental facility that permits the Company, subject to certain conditions, to increase the senior secured revolving credit facility by up to $100.0 million. The Amended Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants customarily applicable to credit facilities. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $27.0 million under the credit facility and was in compliance with all of its debt covenants.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates and a decline in the stock market. The Company does not enter into derivatives, foreign exchange transactions or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
The Company is exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates and market pricing impacting our credit facility. If market interest rates were to increase and market pricing were to decrease immediately and uniformly by 10% from levels at June 30, 2022, the Company estimates that the fair value of its borrowings under its credit facility would decline by an immaterial amount and therefore it would not expect its operating results or cash flows to be affected to any significant degree by the effect of a change in market conditions on our investments.
There have been no material changes to our market risk exposure since December 31, 2021.
22
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of June 30, 2022. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately and on a timely basis. Based on this evaluation performed in accordance with the criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, our management concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no material changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Act) during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Company is, from time to time, subject to a variety of litigation and similar proceedings that arise out of the ordinary course of its business. Based upon the Company’s experience, current information and applicable law, it does not believe that these proceedings and claims will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or liquidity. However, the results of legal actions cannot be predicted with certainty. Therefore, it is possible that the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows could be materially adversely affected in any particular period by the unfavorable resolution of one or more legal actions.
