Mixed Impact 4 of 5 earnings Written later

Herbalife reported second-quarter 2026 net sales of $1.3 billion, up 5.4% year over year and at the top of its guidance range, but posted a net loss attributable to Herbalife of $(26.3) million due mainly to a $94.6 million loss on debt extinguishment. The company narrowed its full-year adjusted EBITDA guidance to $670 million to $690 million, citing foreign exchange headwinds, and said CFO John DeSimone will retire at year-end with Scott Schaefer succeeding him.
