NATURE'S SUNSHINE PRODUCTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Amounts in Thousands, Except Per-Share Information)
(Unaudited)

(1) INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENT POLICIES AND DISCLOSURES

        The unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements of Nature's Sunshine Products, Inc. and subsidiaries included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally required in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes the following disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

        These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2002, and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. All of the adjustments which have been made in these condensed consolidated financial statements are of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2002.

        The Company suggests that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

(2) RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

        In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 141, "Business Combinations", and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 141 requires business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001, to be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and broadens the criteria for recording identifiable intangible assets separate from goodwill and amounts previously recorded as goodwill may be separately identified and recognized apart from goodwill. SFAS No. 142 requires the use of a nonamortization approach to account for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles, and instead these assets are reviewed for impairment on a periodic basis as appropriate. The provisions of each statement which apply to goodwill and intangible assets acquired prior to June 30, 2001, were adopted by the Company on January 1, 2002.

        In connection with the adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company reassessed the useful lives and classification of its intangible assets. The Company determined that $3,213 of previously identified goodwill should be classified as an acquired distributor network and continues to be amortized over a 10-year period. The Company has determined that none of its intangible assets are impaired. Because all of the Company's intangible assets continue to be amortized over the same useful lives, there is no

8



impact on operations. Therefore, no reconciliation of reported net income to adjusted net income is presented. Information regarding the Company's intangible assets is as follows:

        Amortization expense for intangible assets for the six months ended June 30, 2002, was $626. Estimated amortization expense for the remainder of 2002 and the five succeeding fiscal years follows:

 
  Estimated
Amortization

(3) INVENTORIES

        Inventories consist of the following:

2002

  December 31,
2001

Raw materials   $ 7,557   $ 6,571
Work in process     948     928
Finished goods     19,523     19,335
   
 
    $ 28,028   $ 26,834
   
 

(4) NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

        Basic net income per common share (Basic EPS) excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share (Diluted EPS) reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume exercise or conversion of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on net income per common share.

        As of June 30, 2002, the Company had a total of 3,765 common stock options outstanding. These options were granted at fair market value and have a weighted-average exercise price of $8.18 per share.

        Following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of Basic EPS to the numerator and denominator of Diluted EPS for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001:

Basic EPS   $ 8,718   16,273   $ 0.54  
  Effect of stock options       251     (0.01 )
   
 
 
 
Diluted EPS   $ 8,718   16,524   $ 0.53  
   
 
 
 

        For the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, there were outstanding options to purchase 259 and 623 shares of common stock, respectively, that were not included in the computation of Diluted EPS, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, there were outstanding options to purchase 230 and 866 shares of common stock, respectively, that were not included in the computation of Diluted EPS, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

(5) EQUITY TRANSACTIONS

        The Company has declared consecutive quarterly cash dividends since 1988. The most recent quarterly cash dividend of 31/3 cents per common share was declared on July 29, 2002, to shareholders of record on August 9, 2002, and is payable on August 16, 2002.

        For the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, the Company repurchased approximately 352 and 521 shares of its common stock at an average price per share of $11.01 and $11.55, respectively, as part of its 1,000-share buyback program authorized by the Company's Board of Directors in February 2001. At July 29, 2002, the Company had 251 shares remaining to be purchased under the current buyback program.

(7) SEGMENT INFORMATION

        The Company has four operating segments. These operating segments are components of the Company for which separate information is available that is evaluated regularly by management in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company evaluates performance based on operating income.

        The Company's operating segments are based on geographic operations. Intersegment sales are eliminated in consolidation and are not material.
