Briefing

Revenue decreased due to COVID-19 disruptions, but growth in the U.S. and Korea partially offset the decline.

Nu Skin Enterprises reported a decrease in revenue and EPS for Q3 2021 compared to the prior-year quarter, primarily due to COVID-19 related disruptions in Mainland China and Southeast Asia. However, growth in the U.S. and Korea provided some offset. The company is adjusting its 2021 forecast due to continued COVID uncertainty.

  • Q3 revenue was $641.2 million, a 9% decrease year-over-year.
  • EPS was $0.97, a 10% decrease year-over-year.
  • The company experienced growth in the U.S. driven by the Beauty Focus Collagen+ launch.
  • Double-digit growth was achieved in Korea due to successful product promotions and sales leader initiatives.
