by  •  • 0 Comments

Nu Skin Enterprises Inc. (NYSE: NUS) announced fourth quarter and full-year 2023 results slightly above its latest guidance.

“While we continue to work toward our long-term vision of becoming the world’s leading integrated beauty and wellness platform, our progress was impacted by persistent macro-economic pressures and disruptions associated with transforming our business,”

said Ryan Napierski, Nu Skin president and CEO.

“This was particularly evident with our fourth quarter results, which were down in our Americas, South Korea and Europe & Africa segments. This was offset by seasonal promotions in Mainland China, stabilization in Japan and modest growth in our Hong Kong/Taiwan segment. In addition, we achieved strong growth in our Rhyz businesses, which accounted for 13 percent of our revenue in the fourth quarter.
“We are committed to generating long-term enterprise value by repositioning our company to win in the rapidly evolving beauty and wellness industries by further transforming our core Nu Skin business and accelerating investment in our rapidly growing Rhyz ecosystem,”

continued Napierski.

“To enhance this transformation, we are reassessing our approach to capital allocation to invest in long-term growth and business evolution. This initiative aims to grant us increased financial flexibility, enabling us to effectively seize forthcoming growth opportunities.
This includes rebalancing our dividend payout ratio to be in line with or better than our industry peers.
