Nu Skin Enterprises Reports First-Quarter 2008 Results
Date:5/1/2008

PROVO, Utah, May 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Nu Skin Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE: NUS) today reported first-quarter revenue of $298.1 million, a 9 percent improvement over the prior-year period. Earnings per share for the quarter were $0.21, representing a 31 percent increase compared to the same quarter of 2007. Revenue for the quarter was positively impacted 6 percent by foreign currency fluctuations. Quarterly earnings per share were also negatively impacted approximately $0.05 from the translation of yen denominated debt to U.S. dollars as a result of the yen strengthening from 111.5 at the beginning of the first quarter to 99.7 at the end of the quarter. This expense is reported on the Other Income/Expense line of the company's income statement.

"We have high expectations for the year and our first-quarter results serve as an important milestone in achieving our 2008 targets for revenue growth, operating income and earnings per share," said Truman Hunt, president and chief executive officer. "I am particularly pleased with our efforts to improve profitability, which resulted in a 9.2 percent operating margin compared to 6.4 percent in the first quarter of 2007, putting us on track to reach our 10.5 percent operating margin goal for the year.

"It's also encouraging to see good results in both our nutrition and personal care brands with particularly strong demand for our Galvanic Spa System II and Tru Face Essence skin treatment products. We continued to see strong results in South Korea, the United States, Europe, Hong Kong and Southeast Asia, which offset a decline in Japan. The positive first quarter was also highlighted by a successful distributor convention in South Korea. We look forward to similar conventions in Japan a
