Revenue During First Six Months of Fiscal Year 2015, excluding Japan, Increased 4.5%

Repurchased $4.6 Million Common Stock in Second Quarter

Generated $13 Million of Adjusted EBITDA in the First Six Months of Fiscal Year 2015

Salt Lake City, UT, February 4, 2015, LifeVantage Corporation (NASDAQ: LFVN) today reported financial results for its second quarter and six months ended December 31, 2014.

Second Quarter Fiscal 2015 Highlights:
Revenue was $48 million compared to $52 million in the prior year period;
Revenue, excluding Japan, increased by 1.6% compared to the prior year period;
Operating income was $3.1 million, compared to $5.2 million in the prior year period;
Repurchased $4.6 million or 3.5 million shares; and
Opened corporate office in Hong Kong.

Dave S. Manovich, Executive Vice Chairman of LifeVantage stated, "We do not believe the overall second quarter results reflect the strength of our distribution network or our expanded, scientifically-validated product line. In order to improve upon these results and return to meaningful top line growth and reignite growth and enthusiasm in our Company we recently implemented executive changes within our management team.”

“During the second quarter, we achieved growth in several markets, including our core Americas market, but this was offset by lower sales primarily in Japan. We are disappointed that pressures in the Japan market continue to impact our overall performance and know we can do better in this market as proven by previous results. We are intensely focused on identifying and implementing corrective actions designed to stabilize our efforts in Japan and improve growth rates in our other countries as well.”

Mr. Manovich continued, “We are encouraged by our distributors’ and customers’ positive responses to our expanded product offerings, including Axio and TrueScience, but we need to do a better job of engaging with our distributors to ensure that we are taking the right steps to maximize the sales of our newest products. We also are making progress with our geographic expansion efforts. In the second quarter, we opened a corporate office in Hong Kong, which we expect will facilitate a more expedited process for purchasing and receiving products in the region. In addition, we remain on track to commence sales in Thailand during the current fiscal year.”

Second Quarter Fiscal 2015 Results

For the second fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2014, the Company reported revenue of $48.2 million, compared to $51.5 million for the same period in fiscal 2014. Revenue reflects an increase of 2% in the Americas, and a decrease in the Asia/Pacific region of 23%, primarily due to the decline in Japan. Revenue for the quarter was negatively impacted $1.6 million, or 3%, by foreign currency fluctuation.

Operating income for the second fiscal quarter of 2015 was $3.1 million, compared to $5.2 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2014. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA was $4.2 million for the second fiscal quarter of 2015, compared to $6.4 million in the prior year period.

Commissions and incentives for the second fiscal quarter of 2015 were $23.2 million, or 48.1% of revenue, compared to $25.4 million, or 49.3% of revenue, in the same period last year. Selling, general and





administrative expenses (SG&A) for the second fiscal quarter of 2015 were $14.5 million, or 30.0% of revenue, compared to $13.0 million, or 25.3% of revenue, in the same period last year. The increase in SG&A expenses is a result of the Company continuing to invest in sales, marketing and product development initiatives, primarily due to its investment in the October 2014 Axio product launch.

Net income for the second fiscal quarter of 2015 was $1.5 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, calculated on 100.7 million fully diluted shares. This compares to net income in the second fiscal quarter of 2014 of $3.3 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, calculated on 112.4 million fully diluted shares.

Fiscal 2015 First Six Months Results

For the six months ended December 31, 2014, the Company reported net revenue of $99.9 million, compared to $102.9 million in the prior year period. Revenue in the Americas increased 4%, while revenue in Asia Pacific decreased 16% due primarily to lower sales in Japan. Revenue for the first six months of fiscal 2015 was negatively impacted $2.3 million, or 4%, by foreign currency fluctuation.

Operating income for the first six months of fiscal 2015 was $10.9 million, compared to $10.2 million in the prior year period Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA was $13.0 million for the first six months of fiscal 2015, compared to $12.7 million in the prior year. First six months fiscal 2015 operating income and Adjusted EBITDA include the benefit of approximately $2 million from proceeds recovered and related to the Company's December 2012 product recall.

Net income for the first six months of fiscal 2015 was $6.2 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, compared to $6.5 million, or $0.06 per diluted share in the prior year period.

Balance Sheet & Liquidity

The Company generated $8.0 million of cash flow from operations in the first six months of fiscal 2015. Cash flow benefited from a one-time cash settlement of approximately $2 million in the first quarter. The $3.2 million increase in inventory is related to the Company’s recent product launches, TrueScience and Axio, and partially due to the recent decline in revenue. The Company's cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2014 were $18.6 million, compared to $20.4 million at the end of fiscal year 2014. The Company repaid $2.3 million of debt during the first six months of fiscal 2015. During the first six months fiscal 2015, the Company has returned $6.6 million to shareholders by repurchasing a total of 4.9 million shares. The Company entered the third quarter with $4.4 million remaining on its current $7 million share repurchase program announced on November 6, 2014.

Fiscal Year 2015 Guidance

The Company is updating its guidance for fiscal year 2015. Due to the downward pressures related to Japan revenue, and a softening in our other markets the Company expects to generate revenue in the range of $185 million to $195 million in fiscal year 2015. The Company has modeled Japan to decline by approximately 40% with the remaining countries collectively impacting revenue from a negative 3.0% at the bottom end of our range, to a positive 4% at the top end of our range, on a year-over-year basis. The Company expects its operating margin to be in the range of 7% to 9% and earnings per diluted share in the range of $0.06 to $0.08, based on an estimated 101 million diluted shares and a 33% effective tax rate.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We define Non-GAAP EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock compensation expense and other income, net. Non-GAAP EBITDA and Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.





We are presenting Non-GAAP EBITDA and Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA because management believes that they provide additional ways to view our operations when considered with both our GAAP results and the reconciliation to net income, which we believe provides a more complete understanding of our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. Non-GAAP EBITDA and Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA are presented solely as a supplemental disclosure because: (i) we believe it is a useful tool for investors to assess the operating performance of the business without the effect of these items; (ii) we believe that investors will find this data useful in assessing shareholder value; and (iii) we use Non-GAAP EBITDA and Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA internally as a benchmark to evaluate our operating performance or compare our performance to that of our competitors. The use of Non-GAAP EBITDA and Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA has limitations and you should not consider these measures in isolation from or as an alternative to the relevant GAAP measure of net income prepared in accordance with GAAP, or as a measure of profitability or liquidity.
The tables set forth below present Non-GAAP EBITDA and Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA which are non-GAAP financial measures to Net Income, our most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP.
