Capital Allocation
Nature's Sunshine's capital allocation initiatives will be prioritized in three areas of its business: first is maintaining the Company's financial strength and stability; second is the investment in incremental organic growth or strategic M&A opportunities; and third is future dividends or targeted share repurchases where opportunities arise. As such, Nature’s Sunshine is announcing today that its board of directors declared a special cash dividend of $1.00 per share payable on April 9, 2021 to shareholders of record as of March 29, 2021. In addition, its board authorized the repurchase of up to $15 million of the company’s common shares. The repurchases may be made from time to time as market conditions warrant and are subject to regulatory considerations.
Management Commentary
“Our momentum continued in the fourth quarter of 2020, as we outperformed the net sales record we achieved just last quarter, making 2020 full-year sales the highest in the Company's 48-year history,” said Terrence Moorehead, CEO of Nature’s Sunshine. “All four of our global operating business units generated absolute growth, reflecting sustained consumer demand in the U.S. and China, and the continued success of our new business model and revamped field fundamentals in Europe and LATAM. For the full year, we made consistent progress with our five global growth strategies, allowing us to drive year-over-year net sales growth and
significant increases in both net income and adjusted EBITDA. Our team’s dedication around the world has allowed us to further optimize our platform for sustainable long-term growth into 2021.
“Throughout the geographies in which we operate, distributors and customers have responded positively to our new branding and business model we launched during the third quarter. We have experienced meaningful growth in new customer acquisition and membership in our ‘Subscribe and Thrive’ program, and we remain committed to supporting the consultants, health practitioners and retailers within our distributor base as they transition to our revitalized model. Our enhanced organizational structure, digital and manufacturing capabilities, and field fundamentals are already driving material improvements in our go-to-market approach. These initiatives remain a core tenet of our capital allocation priorities as we focus on investing ahead of our growth and activating more customers around the world.
“But as we are announcing today, our record financial performance has also positioned us to return a meaningful amount of capital to our shareholders. We are proud of our financial success during 2020 despite the economic and operating challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Our capital allocation initiatives will be prioritized in three areas of our business: first and foremost is maintaining our financial strength and stability; second is the investment in incremental organic growth opportunities and/or strategic M&A transactions; and third is future dividends or share repurchases where opportunities arise.
“I am proud of the progress we have made with our five global growth strategies in 2020 and the success we have generated with our transformation initiatives to date. We believe our company’s growth trajectory is only just beginning, and we look forward to further maximizing the value we create for our customers, distributors and shareholders in the year ahead.”

| $ | 101,743 | | | $ | 91,695 | | | 11.0 | % | | $ | 2,003 | | | 8.8 | % |
Net sales in the fourth quarter of 2020 increased 11.0% to $101.7 million compared to $91.7 million in the year-ago quarter. The increase was due to new product development, the easing of COVID-19-related restrictions across key markets, and the continued execution of business transformation initiatives. Excluding favorable foreign exchange rates, net sales in the fourth quarter of 2020 increased 8.8% compared to the year-ago quarter.
Gross margin in the fourth quarter of 2020 remained flat at 74.0% compared to the year-ago quarter.
Volume incentives as a percentage of net sales in the fourth quarter of 2020 remained flat at 34.1%, consistent with the year-ago quarter.
Selling, general and administrative expenses in the fourth quarter of 2020 were $38.4 million compared to $32.7 million in the year‐ago quarter. The increase was primarily attributable to variable costs associated with sales growth, higher costs associated with stock-based compensation and bonus-related expenses, and incremental support of sales initiatives. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 37.8% in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to 35.7% in the year-ago quarter. Excluding the impact of the restructuring and other unusual expenses, SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales were 37.1% in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to 35.6% in the year-ago quarter.
Operating income in the fourth quarter of 2020 was $2.2 million, or 2.2% of net sales, compared to $3.9 million, or 4.3% of net sales, in the year-ago quarter. Excluding the impact of the restructuring and other unusual
expenses, operating income was $2.9 million, or 2.9% of net sales, in fourth quarter of 2020, compared to $3.9 million, or 4.3% of net sales, in the year-ago quarter. The decrease in operating income was primarily attributable to increased SG&A expenses noted above.
Other income, net, in the fourth quarter of 2020 was $1.6 million compared to other income of $0.5 million in the year-ago quarter. Other income, net, primarily consisted of foreign exchange gains as a result of net changes in foreign currencies, including Asia, Europe and Latin America. The provision (benefit) for income taxes was a benefit of $(2.8) million in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to a provision of $3.2 million for the year-ago quarter. The favorable effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2020 was primarily due to reduction of valuation allowances relating to certain deferred tax assets.
GAAP net income attributable to common shareholders in the fourth quarter of 2020 was $5.9 million, or $0.29 per diluted common share, compared to $1.0 million, or $0.05 per diluted common share, in the year-ago quarter. Net income attributable to NSP China was $3.9 million, or $0.20 per diluted common share, in the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to $1.1 million, or $0.06 per diluted common share, in the year-ago quarter.
Adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders in the fourth quarter of 2020 was $6.4 million, or $0.32 per diluted common share, compared to $1.0 million, or $0.05 per diluted common share in the year-ago quarter. Adjusted net income, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined here as net income from continuing operations before less-frequent items including, among other things, restructuring expenses and certain tax refunds. A reconciliation of adjusted net income to GAAP net income is provided in the financial tables below.
Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2020 was $7.5 million compared to $7.6 million in the year-ago quarter. The modest decrease was primarily attributable to the aforementioned increase in SG&A expenses, including investments in support of the Company’s long-term growth. Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined here as net income from continuing operations before taxes, depreciation, amortization and other income/loss adjusted to exclude share-based compensation expense and certain noted adjustments. A reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA is provided in the financial tables below.

The provision (benefit) for income taxes was a benefit of $(0.1) million in 2020 compared to a provision of $8.7 million in 2019.
GAAP net income attributable to common shareholders in 2020 was $21.3 million, or $1.07 per diluted common share, compared to $6.8 million, or $0.34 per diluted common share, in 2019.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We have included information which has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), such as information concerning non-GAAP net income, Adjusted EBITDA and net sales excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations.
We utilize the non-GAAP measures of non-GAAP net income and Adjusted EBITDA in the evaluation of our operations and believe that these measures are useful indicators of our ability to fund our business. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, U.S. GAAP net income as an indicator of our operating performance.
Other companies may use the same or similarly named measures, but exclude different items, which may not provide investors with a comparable view of Nature’s Sunshine Products’ performance in relation to other companies. We have included a reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA, the most comparable GAAP measure. We have also included a reconciliation of GAAP net income to Non-GAAP net income and Non-GAAP Adjusted EPS, in the financial tables below.
Net sales in local currency removes, from net sales in U.S. dollars, the impact of changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the functional currencies of our foreign subsidiaries. This is accomplished by translating the current period net sales into U.S. dollars using the same foreign currency exchange rates that were used to translate the net sales for the previous comparable period.
We believe presenting the impact of foreign currency fluctuations is useful to investors because it allows a more meaningful comparison of net sales of our foreign operations from period to period. Net sales excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net sales in U.S. dollar measures that reflect current period exchange rates, or to other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
