MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
SALES REVENUE:
The Company reported record consolidated sales revenue for both
the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995. Sales revenue
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995, was $53.2
million and $151.0 million compared to $41.0 million and $116.7
million the prior year, an increase of 30 percent and 29 percent,
respectively.
Management believes the increase in sales for the three- and
nine-month periods is attributable to the expansion of the Company's
independent sales force, continued increase of consumer awareness
and interest in natural health and nutritional products and
incentives the Company offers its independent sales force. In
addition, the Company's sales revenue growth has been enhanced by
international expansion. Despite a sales decrease of 46 percent in
the Company's operations in Mexico, resulting from the devaluation
of the Peso and related economic turmoil, the Company's
international operations reported sales revenue of $50.8 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 1995, an increase of 45
percent compared to the same period in 1994.
The Company's independent sales force consists of Managers and
Distributors. A Distributor interested in earning additional income
by committing more time and effort to selling the Company's products
may attain the rank of "Manager." Appointment as a Manager is
dependent upon attaining certain purchase volume levels and
demonstrating leadership abilities. The number of Managers
increased to 11,517 at September 30, 1995, from 8,093 at September
30, 1994. The number of Distributors at September 30, 1995, was
325,711 compared to 180,089 at September 30, 1994.
12
VOLUME INCENTIVES:
The dollar increase in volume incentives, for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1995, is directly related
to the increase in sales revenue. Volume incentives are an integral
part of the Company's direct sales marketing program and are
payments to independent sales force members for reaching certain
levels of sales performance and organizational development. Volume
incentives vary slightly, on a percentage basis, by product due to
the Company's pricing policies. Volume incentives decreased
approximately one percent, as a percentage of sales for the nine-
month period ended September 30, 1995, compared to the same period
of 1994, primarily as the result of lower volume incentive payments
in the Company's newest operations, Japan and Brazil. Lower volume
incentive payments are generally expected from newer operations.
Management expects volume incentives to show a slight decrease,
as a percent of sales, for the year ending December 31, 1995.
COST OF GOODS SOLD:
The Company has experienced a slight decrease in cost of goods
sold, as a percentage of sales, for the three months ended September
30, 1995, compared to the same period last year. The decrease in
cost of goods sold, as a percentage of sales, was primarily related
to increased efficiencies in the Company's manufacturing operations.
Management expects cost of goods sold to decrease slightly as a
percent of sales during the rest of 1995.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES:
The Company experienced decreased selling, general and
administrative expenses (SG&A), as a percent of sales, during the
three-month period ended September 30, 1995, and increased SG&A
expenses, as a percent of sales, for the nine months ended September
30, 1995.
13
The increase in SG&A expenses, as a percentage of sales, results
primarily from the incremental costs of approximately $5.1 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, incurred in the
Company's operations in Japan and Brazil. Management expects SG&A
to decrease from current levels for the entire year, as a percentage
of sales, as sales revenue increases in both Brazil and Japan in the
remainder of 1995.
SUBSIDIARY OPERATIONS:

BALANCE SHEET
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

ACCRUED VOLUME INCENTIVES
Accrued volume incentives increased approximately $2.2 million
during the first nine months of the year as a direct result of
increased sales.
ACCRUED LIABILITIES
The balance of accrued liabilities increased approximately $1.7
million during the nine months ended September 30, 1995. The
increase in accrued liabilities reflects the increased level of
sales and related accruals for sales incentives such as conventions
and other travel awards.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash and cash equivalents increased approximately $4.9 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. The increase in
cash and cash equivalents is primarily the result of the increased
sales and income as well as increases in short-term liabilities.

The Company acquired approximately $2.3 million in property,
plant and equipment during the first nine months of 1995 to improve
its manufacturing and administrative capabilities. During the nine
months ended September 30, 1995, the Company acquired approximately
$1.3 million of treasury stock in the market. Approximately $1.8
million was used for the payment of dividends during the first nine
months.
Management believes the Company's stock is an attractive
investment and, from time to time pursuant to its previously
announced 440,000 share stock buyback program, may utilize a portion
of its available cash to purchase up to the remaining balance of
approximately 81,000 shares of its stock should market conditions
warrant. The Company purchased approximately 115,000 treasury
shares during the first half of 1995.
During the period ended September 30, 1995, the Company advanced
$120,000 to one of its officers on a short-term basis at an interest
rate of 9 percent. The loan was repaid with applicable interest
shortly after the end of the second quarter. The Company also
advanced $250,000 to one of its key employees. The loan is
collateralized and is to be repaid in monthly installments over a
two-year period with an interest rate of 9 percent.
During the quarter ended September 30, 1995, the Company
benefited from the exercise of approximately 94,000 shares under the
Company's stock option plans. Approximately $1.2 million in cash
flow was generated during the third quarter as the result of the
options exercised.
The Company is evaluating the need to expand its domestic
manufacturing, inventory and other facilities. The Company may
consider long-term financing for these projects in the event that
they require significant capital outlays.
Management believes that future working capital requirements can
be internally funded. Management expects cash and investments to
increase during the remainder of 1995, primarily resulting from
operations. However, cash and investments may be reduced in the
event the Company proceeds with the capital projects mentioned
above.
