LifeVantage recently announced that it anticipates reporting its highest net revenue to date of approximately $7.4 million for the three month period ended December 31, 2010, an increase of approximately $1.0 million or 15% over net revenue of $6.4 million reported in the previous three month period ended September 30, 2010, and an approximate $4.9 million or 196% increase in net revenue over the $2.5 million net revenue reported for the same quarter last year.

Along with recording net revenue of $7.4 million, the Company also anticipates operating income of at least $500,000 in the second fiscal quarter 2011.  Operating income of $500,000 would generate nearly a 7% operating profit margin, compared to an operating loss of $2.7M for the same quarter last year.
