Things To Note

Nu Skin is battling persistent macroeconomic challenges like rising global inflation. Escalated inflationary environment has been hurting NUS’s margins. Its international presence keeps it exposed to unfavorable currency translations.  In the last earnings call, management highlighted that, though curbs are being relaxed and things are opening up across China, it expects the first half of 2023 to remain tough.

For the second quarter of 2023, Nu Skin expects revenues between $485 million and $525 million. The revenue projection suggests a 6-14% decline from the year-ago quarter’s reported level. The company expects adjusted earnings of 45-55 cents a share for the to-be-reported quarter, reflecting a year-over-year decline.
