    Introduction To HERBALIFE

    ABOUT COMPANY

    In February 1980, Mark Hughes began selling the originalHerbalifeweight loss product from

    the trunk of his car. Hughes often stated that the genesis of his product and program stemmed from the

    weight loss concerns of his mother, whose death he attributed to an eating disorder and an unhealthy

    approach to weight loss. The company's slogan -- "Lose weight now. Ask me how?" became a burgeoning

    call sign for its distributors, who often wore buttons or otherwise adorned their vehicles with the slogan, or

    posted signs and distributed flyers with the slogan, and a distributor's telephone number. Adopting the

    multi-level marketing system for distribution and growth, the company attracted thousands of would-be

    entrepreneurs who sold its products on a door-to-door or word-of-mouth campaign, shunning mainstream

    commercial distribution in commercial stores. The company promised riches to distributors who remained

    loyal to its selling and dietary proselytizing. Early efforts to bring in distributors involved conventions,

    where Hughes would give a keynote address, preceded by testimonials from persons claiming to have

    realized significant health improvements for significant maladies after embarking on the Herbalife

    program.

    By 1982, Herbalife had reached $2,000,000 in sales and opened a distributorship in Canada, its first

    outside of the United States. In 1985, the California Attorney General sued the company for allegedly

    making false claims about the efficacy of its products. The company settled the suit the following year for

    $850,000 without admitting wrongdoing.[2] In 1986 Herbalife became a publicly traded company via

    NASDAQ. Independent distributors' personal vehicles could be seen on the street, decorated by decals

    bearing the mysterious slogan "Make money now, ask me how!". In 1994 Mark Hughes started the

    Herbalife Family Foundation, a charity dedicated to helping children. The organization receives donations

    from Herbalife itself as well as individuals within and outside the company. The Herbalife Family

    Foundation has donated more than $6.5 million to children's causes worldwide. In 1996 Herbalife reached

    $1,000,000,000 in annual sales.

    In 2000, Hughes died at the age of 44 from a drug overdose. The company has continued to grow after

    his death.

    In 2002, Whitney and Co. LLC and Golden Gate Capital acquired Herbalife for $685 million and took the

    company private.[3]

    In April 2003, Michael O. Johnson joined Herbalife as CEO following a 17-year career with The Walt

    Disney Company, most recently as president of Walt Disney International.[2] On December 16, 2004, the

    company had an initial public offering on the NYSE of 14,500,000 common shares at $14/share. 2004 net

    sales were reported as $1.3 billion. In April 2005, the company celebrated its 25th anniversary with a four-

    day event attended by 35,000 Herbalife Independent Distributors from around the world. In August 2005,

    Dr. Steve Henig joined the company as Chief Scientific Officer, responsible for product research and

    development. In 2008, President and COO Greg Probert resigned after it was reported that he had not

    completed the degree requirements for the MBA he claimed on his resume.[4]

    Herbalife Ltd is incorporated in the Cayman Islands and headquartered in Los Angeles, California[5] and

    employs 3500 worldwide. Products are distributed worldwide through a network that Herbalife claims

    contains 1.9 million independent distributors in 70 countries.[6]

    Herbalife spends less than $2 million per year on research and development.[2]

    Product overview

    Herbalife's product offering includes weight-management products such as Formula 1 Nutritional Shake

    Mix, a soy-based meal-replacement shake and one of the first products introduced by the company. Other

    categories include targeted nutrition such as heart health, energy and fitness, and skin care.

    Proponents claim that the Herbalife strategy is aligned with health industry recommendations for safe

    weight control, eating a balanced diet, low-energy food with regular exercises, and that their nutritional

    and weight management line of products facilitate this throughmacronutrient and micronutrient food

    formulas.

    Herbalife provides testimonials from health professionals as part of their marketing campaign. Some of

    the products are vegetarian, some are even kosher or halal.

    In its annual report (SEC Form 10-K) Herbalife declares that all of its products are manufactured by

    outside companies, except for a small amount of products manufactured in its own manufacturing facility

    in China. The major suppliers include NBTY (Nature’s Bounty), Fine Foods (Italy), PharmaChem Labs

    and JB Labs which together account for more than 40% of its product purchases in 2006.[7] In addition

    Herbalife declared in its annual report 2005 that the Company’s research and development is primarily

    performed by outside consultants and that 2005 Herbalife had not incurred any material R&D costs.

    Health Concerns

    Some of the original Herbalife weight loss products contained the active ingredient Ma Huang or Sida

    cordifolia, two herbs containing ephedrine alkaloids. Adverse reactions involving the company's

    Thermojetics original green tablets were recorded by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and

    Herbalife subsequently stopped using ephedrine in its products in the face of rising insurance premiums.[8]

    [9] The U.S. FDA banned supplements containing ephedra in 2004.[10]

    Scientific studies in 2007 by doctors at the University Hospital of Bern in Switzerland and the Liver Unit of

    the Hadassah-Hebrew University Medical Center in Israel found an association between consumption of

    Herbalife products and hepatitis.[11][12] In response, the Spanish Ministry of Health issued an alert asking

    for caution in consuming Herbalife products.[13] Herbalife has stated they are cooperating fully with

    Spanish authorities.[14]

    The Fraud Discovery Institute has reported that laboratory test results of Herbalife products show lead

    levels in excess of limits established by law in Herbalife's home state of California under Proposition 65.[15]

    [16] Barry Minkow founded the Fraud Discovery Institute after serving a jail term for stock fraud.[17] He has

  • 8/19/2019 Herbalife.docx

    7/13

    disclosed that since the beginning of his group's investigation he has begun shorting Herbalife stocks to

    the tune of $50,000 to fund it.[18][19][20] Proposition 65 requires notification of consumers where a product

    "contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other

    reproductive harm." Herbalife has responded, stating that its products meet federal FDA requirements.[21]

    [22] The company states other independent lab tests it has commissioned show that Herbalife products do

    not exceed the Proposition 65 limits.[23][18]

    On the 10th of May 2008 a suit was filed on behalf of a woman who developed lead-related liver

    complaints that she claims were a reaction to a combination of Herbalife products.[17][24] The suit was filed

    by lawyer Christopher Grell, cofounder of the Dietary Supplement Safety Committee and an ally of

    Minkow.[17] On the 17th of June 2008, the suit was expanded to add distributors who had supplied the

    woman with the Herbalife products, with Grell launching a website to offer persons who believe they were

    harmed by Herbalife products the chance of redress.[25] In August 2008, Minkow retracted all accusations

    against Herbalife and removed any mention of the company from his Web site.[26]

    Business methods and controversy

    Supporters and merchants involved with Herbalife contend that it is a genuine and profitable multi-level

    marketing business opportunity. Critics of Herbalife contend that it is a Pyramid scheme[27] and that the

    company has not made enough effort to curb abuses by individual distributors. Herbalife has consistently

    denied such allegations and stated that its business model is fully legal.[28] Herbalife is a member of the

    Direct Selling Association in most countries in which it operates.

    In its filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), company management specifically

    noted problems with inappropriate business practices many years ago, their subsequent long-lasting

    effects and the need to avoid any repetition. Herbalife'sSeptember 2006 quarterly report to the SEC

    describes a distributor network that is relatively easy to enter and exit, financially, by comparison withthose of many other network marketing companies. The company tracks distributor retention by annually

    "re-qualifying" active distributors; most recently, 41.5% of distributors were still active after twelve months,

    up from 39.7% a year before. Company management considers the number and retention of distributors a

    key parameter and tracks it closely in financial reports. As of early 2006, the company had over 240,000

    qualified distributors around the world, up 21% over the previous year; over 80% of these distributors were

    outside North America.[29] The company reports the difference between the listed retail price and the

    actual amount distributors pay the company as "distributor allowances"; in the third calendar quarter of

    2006, these allowances totaled $368 million. Assuming distributors always sold their product at listed

    prices, this amount spread over the qualified distributors would amount to an average "allowance" of

    about $500 per distributor per month. The company also paid out $109 million that quarter in "royalty

    overrides" – basically commissions and bonuses – to qualifying distributors.

    In April 2006, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission proposed new rules to regulate all sellers of "business

    opportunities" in the United States. Under the proposed rules, sellers such as Herbalife would be required

    to (i) implement a seven day waiting period before entering into an agreement with new distributors, (ii)

    provide prospective distributors with substantial written information regarding the business opportunity,

    including: the earnings experience of other distributors, contact data for new distributors in their area,

    cancellation or refund policies and requests within the prior two years, certain legal actions against the

  • 8/19/2019 Herbalife.docx

    8/13

    company, its affiliated companies and officials. In its quarterly report, the Herbalife notes "if implemented

    in its original form, would negatively impact our U.S. business". Many other publicly-traded network

    marketing stocks have since suffered, based on investor expectations the new rules would go through as

    proposed, substantially choking company profits[30]; Herbalife's stock, however, has fully recovered since

    the initial announcement. As of July 2008, these rules have still not been issued and are subject to further

    revision.

    Herbalife's Scientific Advisory Board is chaired by David Heber, M.D. Ph.D, F.A.C.P., F.A.C.N., who is

    professor of medicine and public health and the founding director of the Center for Human Nutrition in the

    Department of Medicine at UCLA. According to a 2004 Forbes article, Dr. Heber joined the board at

    roughly the same time Herbalife made a $3 million donation to establish the Mark Hughes Cellular &

    Molecular Nutrition Laboratory at his Center for Human Nutrition, leading to criticism of Heber's actions as

    an inappropriate conflict of interest.

    Louis J. Ignarro, Ph.D., a Nobel Laureate in Medicine and Distinguished Professor of Pharmacology at the

    UCLA School of Medicine, is also a member of Herbalife's Scientific Advisory Board. Ignarro worked with

    Herbalife to develop Niteworks, a dietary supplement designed to boost the body's own production of

    nitric oxide, and later became a member of the company's Scientific Advisory Board. Ignarro endorsed

    this product in exchange for a royalty agreement reported to have earned his consulting firm over $1

    million in the first 12 months. Ignarro also promoted Niteworks' ingredients in the prestigious Proceedings

    of the National Academy of Sciences, without disclosing his financial interest to the publication. After

    Ignarro's ties to Herbalife were revealed, the journal issued a correction to the article, citing Ignarro's

    undisclosed "conflict of interest". UCLA conducted its own investigation and determined that Ignarro did

    not act improperly as all the research was done in Italy and no research funds came from UCLA.[citation

    needed]Therefore, it was not legally necessary for him to disclose anything. Ignarro also stars as the primary

    speaker in a one-hour Herbalife promotional video for Niteworks.
