Shareholder Conference Call 4:15 PM EST

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Youngevity International, Inc. (OTCQX: YGYI) (www.YGYI.com), a global direct marketer of nutritional and lifestyle products and also a vertically-integrated producer of fine coffees for the commercial, retail and direct sales channels, reported today its financial results for the second quarter of 2013.

Fiscal 2013 Second Quarter Results

For the second fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2013, Youngevity International's revenue increased 8.9% to $20.9 million compared to $19.2 million for the same period in fiscal 2012. The increase in revenue is attributed primarily to the increase in our product offerings and the number of distributors resulting from our acquisitions during 2012, the effect of the annual convention which was held during the quarter ended June 30, 2013, while last year's convention was held during the first quarter and the organic growth of the CLR Roasters private label business.

Youngevity International's gross profit for the second fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2013 increased approximately 15.5% to $12.7 million compared to $11.0 million recorded in the same period last year. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenues came primarily from the direct selling segment where we improved efficiencies in fulfillment costs and gained economies of scale as a result of an increase in revenues.

The Company reported second fiscal quarter 2013 net income of $662,000, compared to a net loss of ($36,000) for the quarter ended June 30, 2012. The increase of $698,000 was attributable to the increase in income before income taxes of $809,000, offset by an increase in income tax provision of $111,000.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company's cash and cash equivalents were $3.6 million and working capital of $2.5 million as compared to cash and cash equivalents of $3.0 million and a working capital of $1.4 million as of December 31, 2012. The increase in cash and improvement in net working capital was primarily due to increased revenues and earnings.

Fiscal 2013 First Six Months Results

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company reported net revenue of $41.7 million, compared to $35.2 million for the same period in fiscal 2012, an 18.5% increase. Gross profit for the second quarter of fiscal year 2013 increased 25.5% to $25.1 million as compared to $20.0 million in the prior year period.

Net income for the second quarter of fiscal year 2013 was $1.7 million as compared to a net loss of $887,000 reported in the same period in fiscal 2012. The increase of $2.5 million was attributable to the increase in income before income taxes of $2.8 million offset by an increase in income tax provision of $301,000.

EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) as adjusted to remove the effect of stock based compensation expense, or "Adjusted EBITDA", was $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $732,000 in the same period for the prior year.

Dave Briskie, Chief Financial Officer of Youngevity International, Inc. said, "Our second quarter results reflect strong year-over-year improvements in revenue and cash flow and we are encouraged with our continued improvement in net income and the strengthening of our balance sheet. Our profitability improvement strategy that we announced in Q3 2012 has delivered as anticipated and has helped better position the Company to execute its acquisition and international expansion strategy.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure - Adjusted EBITDA

This news release includes information on Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure as defined by SEC Regulation G. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with our results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provides useful information about our period-over-period growth. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because management believes it provides additional information with respect to the performance of our fundamental business activities and is also frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of comparable companies. We also rely on Adjusted EBITDA as a primary measure to review and assess the operating performance of our company and our management team. Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as a substitute for net income (loss) (as determined in accordance with GAAP) for the purpose of analyzing the Company's operating performance or financial position, as Adjusted EBITDA is not defined by GAAP.

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings (net income or loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted to eliminate the effects of stock-based compensation and non-cash impairment loss. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income is set out in the tables at the end of this press release.
