NOTE A — ORGANIZATION, CONSOLIDATION, AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

USANA Health Sciences, Inc. develops and manufactures high-quality nutritional and personal care products that are sold internationally through a global network marketing system, which is a form of direct selling. The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts and operations of USANA Health Sciences, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “USANA”) in two geographic regions: Asia Pacific, and Americas and Europe.  Asia Pacific is further divided into three sub-regions: Greater China, Southeast Asia Pacific, and North Asia. Greater China includes Hong Kong, Taiwan and China; Southeast Asia Pacific includes Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Indonesia; North Asia includes Japan, and South Korea.  Americas and Europe includes the United States, Canada, Mexico, Colombia, the United Kingdom, France, Belgium, and the Netherlands.  All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in this consolidation.

 

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 2, 2016, derived from audited consolidated financial statements, and the unaudited interim consolidated financial information of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures that are normally included in financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of any contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial information contains all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments that are necessary to state fairly the Company’s financial position as of July 2, 2016 and results of operations for the quarters and six months ended July 4, 2015 and July 2, 2016.

 

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto that are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 2, 2016.  The results of operations for the six months ended July 2, 2016, may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year 2016 ending December 31, 2016.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” ASU 2014-09 includes a five-step process by which entities will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.  The standard also will require enhanced disclosures to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. In July 2015, the FASB announced a decision to defer the effective date of this ASU. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE A — ORGANIZATION, CONSOLIDATION, AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION - CONTINUED

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).”  ASU 2016-02 is intended to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements.  Additionally, the ASU will require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases, including qualitative and quantitative requirements.  The update requires lessees to apply a modified retrospective approach for recognition and disclosure, beginning with the earliest period presented.  The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.”  ASU 2016-09 was issued as part of the FASB’s simplification initiative aimed at reducing costs and complexity while maintaining or improving the usefulness of financial information.  This update involves several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, forfeitures, statutory tax withholding requirements, and classification in the statement of cash flows.  This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted for any interim or annual period.  If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period, and the entity must adopt all of the amendments in the same period.  The Company elected to early adopt ASU 2016-09 during the quarter ended April 2, 2016.

 

The impact of the early adoption of this standard increased net earnings by approximately $541 and $825 for the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2016, respectively.  Diluted earnings per share, however, only benefited the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2016, by $0.02 due to a higher dilutive share count.

NOTE B — FAIR VALUE MEASURES

 

The Company measures at fair value certain of its financial and non-financial assets and liabilities by using a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair value is 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, essentially an exit price, based on the highest and best use of the asset or liability. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

 

·                  Level 1 inputs are quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date.

 

·                  Level 2 inputs are from other than quoted market prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

 

·                  Level 3 inputs are unobservable and are used to measure fair value in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

 

As of the dates indicated, the following financial assets and liabilities were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using the type of inputs shown:

 

					Fair Value Measurements Using
					Inputs
		January 2, 2016			Level 1			Level 2			Level 3
Money market funds included in cash equivalents		$	14,460		$	14,460		$	—		$	—
Foreign currency contracts included in prepaid expenses and other current assets		33			—			33			—

NOTE B — FAIR VALUE MEASURES - CONTINUED

 

There were no transfers of financial assets or liabilities between levels of the fair value hierarchy for the periods indicated.

 

The majority of the Company’s non-financial assets, which include goodwill, intangible assets, and property and equipment, are not required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis. However, if certain triggering events occur (or tested at least annually for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles) such that a non-financial asset is required to be evaluated for impairment, an impairment charge is recorded to reduce the carrying value to the fair value, if the carrying value exceeds the fair value. At January 2, 2016 and July 2, 2016, there were no non-financial assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

 

The Company’s financial instruments include cash equivalents, accounts receivable, restricted cash, notes receivable, and accounts payable. The recorded values of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, restricted cash, and accounts payable approximate their fair values, based on their short-term nature. The carrying value of the notes receivable approximate fair value because the variable interest rates in the notes reflect current market rates.

 

NOTE C — INVENTORIES

 

Inventories consist of the following:

 

		January 2,			July 2,
		2016			2016
Raw materials		$	22,529		$	25,958
Work in progress		8,701			9,628
Finished goods		34,889			35,746
		$	66,119		$	71,332

 

NOTE D — OTHER ASSETS

 

Other assets consists primarily of a secured loan to a third-party supplier of the Company’s nutrition bars and land use rights related to a production facility under development in China.

 

The Company has extended non-revolving credit to its supplier of nutrition bars to allow them to acquire equipment that is necessary to manufacture the USANA nutrition bars.  This relationship provides improved supply chain stability for USANA and creates a mutually beneficial relationship between the parties.  Notes receivable are valued at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest, which approximates fair value.  Interest accrues at an annual interest rate of LIBOR plus 400 basis points. The note has a maturity date of February 1, 2024 and will be repaid by a combination of cash payments and credits for the manufacture of USANA’s nutrition bars.  There is no prepayment penalty.  Notes receivable from this supplier as of January 2, 2016, and July 2, 2016 were $8,339 and $7,377, respectively.

 

This third-party supplier is considered to be a variable interest entity; however, the Company is not the primary beneficiary due to the inability to direct the activities that most significantly affect the third-party supplier’s economic performance. Additionally, the Company does not absorb a majority of the third-party supplier’s expected losses or returns. Consequentially, the financial information of the third-party supplier is not consolidated. The maximum exposure to loss as a result of the Company’s involvement with the third-party supplier is limited to the carrying value of the note receivable due from the third-party supplier.

 

The Company is building a state-of-the-art manufacturing and production facility in China, which is expected to become operational during the fourth quarter of 2016.  As part of this project, land use rights totaling $7,053, and $6,879 as of January 2, 2016 and July 2, 2016, respectively, have been purchased and are being amortized over 50 years.

NOTE E — LINE OF CREDIT

 

On February 19, 2016, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”), with Bank of America, which extends the term of the Credit Agreement to April 27, 2021.  The Credit Agreement also increases the amount the Company may borrow under the credit facility from $75,000 to up to $125,000, through October 31, 2016.  On November 1, 2016, the amount the Company may borrow will revert to $75,000 for the remainder of the agreement.  The only other modification to the Credit Agreement was an increase to the Company’s consolidated rolling four-quarter adjusted EBITDA covenant from $60,000 to equal to or greater than $100,000.

 

Interest is computed based on the bank’s Prime Rate or LIBOR, adjusted by features specified in the Credit Agreement. The collateral for this line of credit is the pledge of the capital stock of certain subsidiaries of the Company, set forth in a separate pledge agreement with the bank. Part of the credit agreement is that any existing bank guarantees are considered a reduction of the overall availability of credit and part of the covenant calculation. This resulted in a $4,153, and $4,227 reduction in the available borrowing limit as of January 2, 2016 and July 2, 2016, respectively, due to existing normal course of business guarantees in certain markets.

 

There was no outstanding debt on this line of credit at January 2, 2016 or at July 2, 2016.  The Company will be required to pay any balance on this line of credit in full at the time of maturity in April 2021 unless the line of credit is replaced or terms are renegotiated.

 

NOTE F — CONTINGENCIES

 

The Company is involved in various lawsuits, claims and other legal matters from time to time that arise in the ordinary course of conducting business, including matters involving our products, intellectual property, supplier relationships, distributors, competitor relationships, employees and other matters. The Company records a liability when a particular contingency is probable and estimable. The Company has not accrued for any contingency at July 2, 2016 as the Company does not consider any contingency to be probable nor estimable. The Company faces contingencies that are reasonably possible to occur; however, they cannot currently be estimated. While complete assurance cannot be given to the outcome of these proceedings, management does not currently believe that any of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.

 

In August 2014, a purported shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in the Third Judicial District Court of Salt Lake County, State of Utah (James Robert Rawcliffe v. Robert Anciaux, et al.,) against certain of the Company’s directors and officers. The derivative complaint, which also names USANA as a nominal defendant but is asserted on USANA’s behalf, contains claims of breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets and unjust enrichment against the defendant directors and officers in connection with certain equity awards granted by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors in February 2014. In October 2014, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the complaint and, in March 2015, the court granted that motion and dismissed the complaint without prejudice. In May 2015, the plaintiffs filed an appeal with the Utah Supreme Court. The Supreme Court remanded the Company’s case to the Utah Court of Appeals.  The plaintiff and the Company have each filed their appellate brief with the court and are awaiting a hearing date.  The Company believes that the claims in the complaint are without merit and will continue to vigorously defend this suit.  The Company continues to believe, based on information currently available, that the final outcome of this suit will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations or consolidated financial position.

NOTE G — COMMON STOCK AND EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for each period. Shares that have been repurchased and retired during the periods specified below have been included in the calculation of the number of weighted-average shares that are outstanding for the calculation of basic earnings per share based on the time they were outstanding in any period. Diluted earnings per common share are based on shares that are outstanding (computed under basic EPS) and on potentially dilutive shares. Shares that are included in the diluted earnings per share calculations under the treasury stock method include equity awards that are in-the-money but have not yet been exercised.

 

The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to calculate basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share for the periods indicated:

 

		Quarter Ended						Six Months Ended
		July 4,			July 2,			July 4,			July 2,
		2015			2016			2015			2016
Net earnings available to common shareholders		$	25,416		$	25,762		$	45,096		$	48,061
Weighted average common shares outstanding - basic		12,740			11,978			12,694			12,040
Dilutive effect of in-the-money equity awards		485			480			461			485
Weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted		13,225			12,458			13,155			12,525
Earnings per common share from net earnings - basic		$	1.99		$	2.15		$	3.55		$	3.99
Earnings per common share from net earnings - diluted		$	1.92		$	2.07		$	3.43		$	3.84

 

Equity awards for the following shares were not included in the computation of diluted EPS due to the fact that their effect would be anti-dilutive:

 

		Quarter Ended				Six Months Ended
		July 4,		July 2,		July 4,		July 2,
		2015		2016		2015		2016
		102		1,105		113		1,100

 

During the six months ended July 2, 2016, the Company repurchased and retired 553 shares, for $64,610, under the Company’s share repurchase plan. The excess of the repurchase price over par value is allocated between additional paid-in capital and retained earnings on a pro-rata basis. The purchase of shares under this plan reduces the number of shares outstanding in the above calculations.

 

As of July 2, 2016, the remaining approved repurchase amount under the stock repurchase plan was $35,390. There currently is no expiration date on the remaining approved repurchase amount and no requirement for future share repurchases.

·                  Current Focus and Recent Developments

 

·                  Results of Operations

 

·                  Liquidity and Capital Resources

This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto that are contained in this quarterly report, as well as Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations that are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 2, 2016, and our other filings, including Current Reports on Form 8-K, that have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) through the date of this report.

 

Overview

 

We develop and manufacture high-quality, science-based nutritional and personal care products that are distributed internationally through a network marketing system, which is a form of direct selling.  We have chosen this distribution method as we believe it is more conducive to meeting our vision as a company, which is improving the overall health and nutrition of individuals and families around the world.  Our customer base comprises two types of customers: “Associates” and “Preferred Customers.”  Associates share in our company vision by acting as independent distributors of our products in addition to purchasing our products for their personal use.  Preferred Customers purchase our products strictly for their personal use and are not permitted to resell or to distribute the products.  As of July 2, 2016, we had approximately 460,000 active Associates and approximately 97,000 active Preferred Customers worldwide.  For purposes of this report, we only count as active customers those Associates and Preferred Customers who have purchased from us at any time during the most recent three-month period.

 

We have ongoing operations in the following markets, which are grouped and presented as follows:

 

·                  Asia Pacific

 

·                  Greater China — Hong Kong, Taiwan, and China(1)

 

·                  Southeast Asia Pacific — Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Indonesia(2)

 

·                  North Asia — Japan and South Korea

 

·                  Americas and Europe — United States, Canada, Mexico, Colombia, the United Kingdom, France, Belgium, and the Netherlands

 

(1)         Our business in China is that of BabyCare, our wholly-owned subsidiary.

(2)         We commenced operations in Indonesia in the fourth quarter of 2015.

 

Our primary product lines consist of USANAâ Nutritionals, USANA Foods, and Sensé — beautiful scienceâ (Sensé), which is our line of personal care products.  The USANA Nutritionals product line is further categorized into two separate classifications: Essentials and Optimizers.  The following tables summarize the approximate percentage of total product revenue that has been contributed by our major product lines and our top-selling products for the current and prior-year periods as indicated:

We believe that our ability to attract and retain Associates and Preferred Customers to sell and consume our products is positively influenced by a number of factors, some of which include: the general public’s heightened awareness and understanding of the connection between diet and long-term health, and the growing desire for a secondary source of income and small business ownership.

 

We believe that our high-quality products and our financially rewarding Associate Compensation Plan are the key components to attracting and retaining Associates.  We periodically make changes to our Compensation Plan in an effort to ensure that our plan is among the most rewarding in the industry, to encourage behavior that we believe leads to a successful business for our Associates, and to ensure that our plan provides us with leverage to grow sales and earnings.

 

To further support our Associates in building their businesses, we sponsor meetings and events throughout the year, which offer information about our products and our network marketing system.  These meetings are designed to assist Associates in their business development and to provide a forum for interaction with our Associate leaders and members of our management team.  We also provide low cost sales tools, including online sales, business management, and training tools, which we believe are an integral part of building and maintaining a successful home-based business for our Associates.  Although we provide training and sales tools, we ultimately rely on our Associates to sell our products, attract new customers to purchase our products, and educate and train new Associates.

 

Because we have operations in multiple markets, with sales and expenses being generated and incurred in multiple currencies, our reported U.S. dollar sales and earnings can be significantly affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates.  In general, our operating results are affected positively by a weakening of the U.S. dollar and negatively by a strengthening of the U.S. dollar.  During the six months ended July 2, 2016, net sales outside of the United States represented 86.6% of consolidated net sales.  In our net sales discussions that follow, we approximate the impact of currency fluctuations on net sales by translating current year sales at the average exchange rates in effect during the comparable periods of the prior year.
