Nature’s Sunshine recently announced its Q3 financial results for 2024. Net sales for the quarter were up 3% to $114.6 million, and adjusted EBITDA was $10.7 million, a 5% increase from $10.3 million in the same period last year.
Gross profit margin during the Q3 was 71.3%, down from 73.1% in the Q3 of 2023. The company attributes this slight decline to inflation and an unfavorable foreign exchange that negatively impacted its savings initiatives.
Operating income during the quarter was $2.6 million, a significant improvement from a loss of $0.9 million in the same quarter of 2023.
“The third quarter delivered the highest sales volume this year, with $114.6 million in sales, up 4% versus prior year on a local currency basis,”
said Terrence Moorehead, Nature’s Sunshine CEO.
“The strong performance was driven by robust customer growth in Japan and Taiwan, continued progress in Korea, and strong execution and customer activation in Central Europe.
The positive momentum was somewhat offset by the macroeconomic headwinds in China.
We are excited about the actions we’ve taken to advance our strategic agenda and remain confident that our approach will allow us to attract and retain more customers, drive profitable growth, and build shareholder value.”

Management Commentary
“The challenges facing our world certainly remained in the second quarter,”
said Terrence Moorehead, CEO of Nature’s Sunshine.
“The devastating war in Ukraine, rampant inflation, supply chain pressures, and the lingering impact of COVID-19 hampered our vision to share the healing power of nature with everyone.
Despite the headwinds, our revenue was flat on a constant currency basis, driven by continued rapid growth in Asia and mitigated losses in Europe. We believe these outcomes illuminate the resilience of our brand, the power of our vision, and the advantages of our global presence.
“As we look to the remainder of the year, we recognize the volatility and uncertainty of the operating environment.
However, we will continue to invest in our five global growth strategies and support our partners
