GNC Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) has prepared presentation materials (the “Presentation Materials”) that management intends to use from
time to time on and after July 22, 2019, in presentations about the Company’s operations and performance. The Company may use the Presentation Materials, possibly with modifications, in presentations to current and potential

herein. The Presentation Materials will also be made available on the Company’s website, www.gnc.com, under the Investor Relations page.
The
information contained in the Presentation Materials is summary information that should be read in conjunction with the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its most recent Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q,
filed on May 2, 2019, and other public announcements that the Company may make by press release or otherwise from time to time. For a reconciliation of certain
Non-GAAP
measures included in the Presentation Materials to the most comparable GAAP measures, see the appendix to Exhibit 99.1.
The foregoing information (including Exhibit 99.1) is furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of Form
8-K
and shall not be
deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section, nor shall it be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing under
the Securities Act, except as may be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Forward-Looking Statements
The Presentation Materials contain certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect
to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and business that is not historical information. Forward-looking statements can often be identified by the use of terminology such as “subject to,” “believes,”
“anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” “intends,” “estimates,” “projects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “can,” the negatives thereof, variations thereon and
similar expressions, or by discussions regarding the Company’s strategy and outlook. While the Company believes there is a reasonable basis for its expectations and beliefs, they are inherently uncertain and subject to significant business,
economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks, contingencies and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the Company’s control. These risks, contingencies and uncertainties relate to, among other
things: the highly competitive industry in which the Company operates; unfavorable publicity or consumer perception of the Company’s products; product innovation; the Company’s exploration of new strategic initiatives; the Company’s
manufacturing operations; relationships with the Company’s vendors; the Company’s distribution network and inventory management; the Company’s ability to develop and maintain a relevant omni-channel experience for its customers; the
performance of, and its relationships with, its franchisees; the location of its stores; availability of raw materials; general economic conditions; material claims or product recalls; regulatory compliance; the value of the Company’s brand
name; privacy protection and cyber-security; the Company’s current debt profile and risks related to its capital structure; possible joint ventures; the Company’s key executives and employees; insurance; and tax rate risks. The Company
undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Actual results could differ materially from those described or implied by such forward-looking
statements. For a more detailed discussion of important factors that may materially affect such forward-looking statements, please refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended
December 31, 2018.
