Management Commentary

"Our third-quarter results were disappointing and fell short of our expectations,” said Ken Romanzi, CEO of Nature’s Sunshine. “We faced several challenges in our business, particularly in China and in our Digital business. In China, operational disruptions have had a more significant impact on our consultant leadership base than we initially anticipated which we have already begun rebuilding. Further, following several quarters of exceptional growth in our Digital business, we are continuing to invest in this critical part of our portfolio to position it for the next phase of growth.

"While our third quarter performance was far from our expectations, our confidence in the long-term potential of Nature's Sunshine remains strong."

Net sales in the third quarter of 2026 decreased 9% to $116.6 million compared to $128.3 million in the same year-ago quarter. Excluding the impact from foreign exchange rates, net sales in the third quarter of 2026 decreased 7% compared to the year-ago quarter.

Gross profit margin in the third quarter of 2026 decreased to 72.9% compared to 73.3% in the year-ago quarter. The decrease is primarily due to unfavorable foreign exchange.

Volume incentives as a percentage of net sales were 32.0% compared to 30.7% in the year-ago quarter. The increase was primarily due to timing of promotional incentives and market mix.

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") in the third quarter of 2026 were $42.3 million compared to $45.7 million in the year‐ago quarter. The decrease was primarily related to a reduction in variable selling

expenses and cost management. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 36.3% for the third quarter of 2026 compared to 35.6% in the year-ago quarter.

Operating income in the third quarter of 2026 decreased to $5.3 million, or 4.5% of net sales, compared to $9.0 million, or 7.0% of net sales, in the year-ago quarter.

Other income (expense), net, in the third quarter of 2026 was $0.1 million compared to $0.7 million in the year-ago quarter. The provision for income taxes was $3.5 million in the third quarter of 2026 compared to $4.1 million for the year-ago quarter.

GAAP net income attributable to common shareholders decreased to $1.9 million, or $0.11 per diluted common share, compared to $5.3 million, or $0.30 per diluted common share, in the year-ago quarter. As a result of the December 2025 purchase of noncontrolling interests, there was no net income attributable to NSP China for the third quarter of 2026, compared to $1.0 million, or $0.06 per diluted common share, in the year-ago quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter of 2026 decreased to $11.1 million compared to $15.2 million in the year-ago quarter. Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined here as net income from continuing operations before taxes, depreciation, amortization, and other income (expense) adjusted to exclude share-based compensation expense and certain noted adjustments. A reconciliation of net income to adjusted EBITDA is provided in the attached financial tables.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

Net cash provided by operating activities was $9.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $25.4 million in the prior year period. Capital expenditures during the nine months ended September 30, 2026, totaled $6.8 million compared to $4.1 million in the comparable period of 2025. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company repurchased 345,000 shares at a total cost of $6.1 million or $17.66 per share. As of September 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $89.4 million and zero debt.

Outlook

Reflecting the impact of a stronger U.S. dollar and recent challenges in the China market, Nature's Sunshine now expects full year 2026 net sales to range between $460 and $470 million ($490 and $500 million prior). Adjusted EBITDA is now expected to range between $44 and $48 million ($48 and $52 million prior).

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We have included information which has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), such as information concerning non-GAAP net income, adjusted EBITDA and net sales excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations.

We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide investors with greater transparency to evaluate operational activities and financial results and facilitate consistent comparisons to the historical operating performance of prior periods. We utilize these non-GAAP measures of non-GAAP net income and adjusted EBITDA in the evaluation of our operations and believe that these measures are useful indicators of our operating performance and ability to fund our business. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, U.S. GAAP net income (loss) as an indicator of our operating performance.

Other companies may use the same or similarly named measures, but exclude different items, which may not provide investors with a comparable view of Nature’s Sunshine Products’ performance in relation to other companies. We have included a reconciliation of net income, the most comparable GAAP measure, to adjusted EBITDA. We have also included a reconciliation of GAAP net income to non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP adjusted EPS, in the attached financial tables.

Net sales in local currency removes, from net sales in U.S. dollars, the impact of changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the functional currencies of our foreign subsidiaries. This is accomplished by translating the current period's net sales into U.S. dollars using the same foreign currency exchange rates that were used to translate the net sales for the previous comparable period.

4

We believe presenting the impact of foreign currency fluctuations is useful to investors because it allows a more meaningful comparison of net sales of our foreign operations from period to period. Net sales excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net sales in U.S. dollar measures that reflect current period exchange rates, or to other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

With respect to our adjusted EBITDA outlook for the full year 2026, a quantitative reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP information cannot be provided without unreasonable effort because of the inherent difficulty of accurately forecasting the occurrence and financial impact of the various adjusting items necessary for such reconciliation that have not yet occurred, are out of our control, or cannot be reasonably predicted, including stock based compensation and other potential adjustments. For the same reasons, we are unable to assess the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could have a material impact on our future GAAP financial results.
