Future Outlook
The company expects continued revenue growth globally in fiscal year 2026 and beyond, driven by the refinement and expansion of product offerings, particularly the MindBody GLP-1 System™. The main focus for FY26 will be to increase the average account base through concentrated efforts on enrolling new independent consultants and customers, and improving the retention rate of accounts placing orders after initial enrollment. The company also plans to continue investing in its red-carpet program and expanding the functionality and availability of its digital tools.
Management Comments
- We remain optimistic that the red-carpet program will help drive long term revenue growth for our business.
- We have increased red carpet leadership enrollments and hope to see improved retention and active independent consultant and customer counts as a result of this program.
- We expect this expansion will continue to drive revenue growth globally through increased average order size and increased ability to attract and retain new independent consultants and customers with a compelling product lineup.
- Our main focus will be to increase our average account base through concentrating our efforts on the enrollment of new independent consultants and customers, who will in turn help grow the business through incremental product sales, and on increasing the number of accounts that place an order in the month following their initial enrollment.
- We also plan to continue investing in our red-carpet program, which we believe has increased our ability to attract and retain strong consultant leadership and is a significant opportunity to drive revenue growth throughout our markets.
- We remain committed to further expanding the functionality and availability of our digital tools, which we believe will aid independent consultants in initiating and expanding their businesses.
Industry Context
The company operates in the highly competitive and fragmented dietary supplement and personal care markets, which are sensitive to new product introductions. Its focus on nutrigenomics and cellular activation positions it within cutting-edge industry trends. The company competes with large pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetics companies, as well as other direct selling organizations. The weight management market, particularly with GLP-1 products, is also highly competitive, with many well-known companies and broad distribution channels.
Comparison to Industry Standards
- The sales compensation plan is believed to be one of the more financially rewarding plans in the direct selling industry and in line with direct selling industry standards, with elements paid daily, weekly, or monthly to attract and retain new independent consultants.
- The TrueScience® Liquid Collagen product is highlighted for its triple-action formula, delivering 10 different types of peptides, which is 'significantly more than most competitive products,' and a unique red quinoa extract.
- AXIO® energy drink is differentiated as a no sugar, low-carbohydrate, low-calorie, non-GMO, gluten-free, and vegan option in the competitive energy drink market.
- The company emphasizes its focus on endogenous antioxidant systems (Nrf2 pathway) for Protandim®, contrasting with the general scientific literature that 'rigorous trials of antioxidant supplements in large numbers of people have not found that high doses of antioxidant supplements prevent disease.'

Growth in active consultants and customers indicates positive market acceptance. While there are competitive and regulatory risks, and the expiration of a key patent, the overall growth trajectory, strategic product development, and commitment to shareholder returns (dividends, share repurchases) suggest a positive outlook for long-term investors. The acquisition of LoveBiome assets also indicates strategic expansion.
