Herbalife Ltd. Overview

Pro stress-test →

Herbalife Ltd. is a global health and wellness company providing weight management, targeted nutrition, energy/sports/fitness, and outer nutrition products across more than 90 countries. Since 1980, the company has been on a mission to improve nutritional habits worldwide through science-backed nutrition products distributed exclusively through trained independent distributors.

Strategic Profile

Pro stress-test →

The company delivered fourth quarter and full-year net sales growth in 2025, exceeding guidance. Latest quarterly revenue reached $1.28B with a 6.26% year-over-year increase and net profit up 52%. However, the company faces rising regulatory scrutiny and shifting consumer preferences that threaten growth, with flat volumes and maturing markets undermining expansion efforts.

Competitive Landscape

Pro stress-test →

Direct competitors include USANA Health Sciences and Nu Skin Enterprises. The company's multi-level distribution model differentiates but also exposes it to regulatory risk compared to traditional retail nutrition competitors.
