Nu Skin's shares rally as the company stated that its preliminary revenues for Q4 came in at the upper end of its projected range.
Nu Skin Enterprises sold its Mavely affiliate marketing platform for $250 million, achieving a 5x ROI since 2021, and plans to use the cash for debt reduction and innovation. The new cash influx could accelerate both inorganic and organic growth, with potential acquisitions enhancing revenue and free cash flow growth. NUS could benefit from potential tax reductions under the new U.S. administration, which may increase net income and stock demand.
NUS' subsidiary has sold its Mavely affiliate marketing platform to Later for nearly $250 million, boosting innovation and resources.
After Nu Skin announced the sale of its marketing tech platform business, Mavely, to Summit Partners portfolio company Later, Jefferies noted that this transaction generated about a five-times return on company's investment in Mavely since the acquisition in 2021. Nu Skin's Q3 sales softness was offset by strength from the Rhyz business, with strength led by Mavely, noted the analyst, who also points out that the company will have a minority stake in the Later and Mavely combined businesses. Jefferies has a Hold rating and $7 price target on Nu Skin shares.
Nu Skin is struggling with a difficult macroeconomic landscape, volatile currency movements and pressures in the direct selling industry.
