  3. Executive Summary

  4. Wellness Line Review 2003 • Wellness 2002 Size of Line finaled at 250 skus. Aggressive inventory clearance of 66 dispos resulted in a 250 SOL, (-15) below an objective of 265 skus. • In 2003, the marketing mix will shift to Beauty and Beauty Plus. The major repositioning of Wellness Beauty will be supported by the launches of Healthy Remedies and Planet Spa. In the Beauty Plus category, continued brand building of SlimWell and VitAdvance will re-vitalize and grow the lines. • Beyond Beauty will continue to remain strong, with more impactful products. Strong vendor relationships (eg. Bally, Conair, HoMedics) will be leveraged to better manage supply and inventory. • Further investigation of Cluster and Wellness Global inventory management. • Wellness 2003 New skus (169 vs. 166) are up slightly (+2%). • The 2003 size of line goal of 265 skus will need to be aggressively achieved through more clearance, improved estimating accuracy, and internal process improvement. • Increase catalog pages dedicated to clearance. • Utilize AIA as a forecasting tool. • Refinement of product life strategy.

  11. Market Trends The vitamin category was down slightly(-3.2%), driven by declines in the 1&2 Letter segment. Average price per unit of all vitamin segments have increased steadily over the past 5 years. Industry new product introductions were down 48.0% in ‘01 vs. PY due to lack of new product innovation. Industry growth has been hampered by efficacy issues, negative study results, safety questions. Competitive Dynamics Wal-Mart accounted for almost 1/3 of total vitamin sales in 2001. Private Label dominates the market, representing 34% of category sales. Centrum, the next closest competitor, follows with 9.0% of the market. 34% of vitamins are sold on some promotion. When promoted, vitamins are discounted an average of 26%. Advertised specials appear to be the primary promotional vehicle for vitamins, followed next by price reductions. Avon offers fewer pills at a premium price point versus top competitors. Nutrition Industry Trends Source: IRI Reviews: FDM w/ Wal-Mart

  31. Tea Review

  32. Mass Market Tea Sales vs. Avon • Increased interest in alternative medicine, including herbal remedies is a factor in increased tea sales. • Flavored teas have also contributed to loose tea sales. • Avon’s Infusions 2003 demand sales projection of $3.3M is +22% above PY. Growth will be fueled by promotional/giftable items as well as higher net per unit per concept.

  33. Tea Sales by Class of Trade • Most Americans buy tea as part of a planned shopping trip – the majority of tea sales by dollar volume are through the supermarket channel*. • However, as more Americans turn to mass merchandisers’ “superstores” that sell groceries as well as dry goods, most grocery stores are seeing a sales decline for tea. 2001 Dollar Sales of Tea by Channel * Source: IRI Reviews: FDM w/ Wal-Mart In 2000 Wal-Mart took over the number one position as the top grocery retailer in the US

  34. Market Trends Between 1998 – 2000, the tea segment increased 10.3% due in part to the proliferation of flavored teas and new types of herbal teas. Tea has taken on a new form as a natural treatment option - Good news about links between tea consumption & health benefits have convinced many consumers to increase their consumption of tea. Consumers are increasingly price sensitive toward tea. The influence of tea has expanded beyond its traditional form and is being found in unexpected beverages and foods as well as bath and beauty products. Competitive Dynamics Lipton brand owns the tea business with 36% of market share, more than double of its closest competitor Celestial Seasonings. Brands like Celestial Seasonings & Honest Tea have pioneered green and herbal teas in mainstream channels, helping to raise awareness. Mass merchandisers’ Private Label brands rank number three in total tea sales in the US market. Tea sales in supermarkets are falling as mass merchandisers ramp up their development of full-line grocery selections in their stores. Tea Industry Trends

  40. Avon Size of Line 15.6% 56.1% Avon Demand Sales (MM) 2002-2003 (projection) by Brand $ 102.0% 14.1% Avon Wellness Beauty Sales & Concepts • Lack of appealing fragrances, undesirable packaging, and uncompelling brochure executions contributed to the unsuccessful launches of Vitatonics, Electricity & Restoring in 2001 & 2002. • 2002 Beauty sales growth of 14% was modest, fueled by the introductions of Soy, Edamame, Ginseng Asian Pear. • Major re-positioning of the Wellness Beauty supported by the introductions of Healthy Remedies and Planet Spa is expected to drive Beauty sales growth in 2003. • 2003 size of line will return to 201 level due to aggressive disposition.

  41. Market Trends Major trends driving the spa market: Increased stress. Re-definition of beauty from “glamorous beauty” to “natural beauty” born of health & wellness. Trend to self improvement. Consumer attitudes show an increased emphasis on a “holistic” approach to Wellness (complete body & mind renewal). Consumer trends show an increased focus on healthy lifestyles putting greater emphasis on prevention and fitness. Recent economic slowdown will tempt consumers to spend less on day spa services and skew them towards less expensive at home treatments. Competitive Dynamics The spa industry is growing rapidly and is projected to grow at an average annual rate of more than 20% per annum in the services area. The Body Care segment of the Spa industry (including services) is expected to grow +117.5%, to $3.48 billion in 2003. Responding to the opportunity presented by the tremendous proliferation of overnight and day spas, mass market & premium brands have entered the at home treatment spa segment.

  42. Market Trends Health warnings, environmental concerns and organic attitudes have contributed and will continue to contribute to the growth in popularity of natural-based personal care products. Consumer trends reflect a growing tendency of Americans to self medicate for minor & chronic illnesses. Competitive Dynamics Sales of natural personal care products are expected to grow between 20% - 25% over the next several years. Most players in the natural personal care market are small, independent companies; However, consumer demand is driving mainstream beauty companies to enter the natural products market. Within the alternative medicine market, herbal remedies accounted for 93% of sales in 2001.
