Exhibit 99.1
Mannatech Reports Second Quarter Results
Sales and earnings decline; additional accrual made for litigation expenses
Coppell, TX, August 8, 2008 – Mannatech, Incorporated (NASDAQ – MTEX), a leading developer and provider of dietary supplements and skin care solutions, today reported a second quarter 2008 loss of $10.5 million or $0.40 cents per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.5 million or $0.06 cents earnings per diluted share for the second quarter of 2007. The company reported a pre-tax loss of $16.9 million compared to pre-tax income of $2.6 million for the second quarter of 2007. Results include accruals for various litigation and operating expenses, and a workforce reduction.
Second quarter net sales for 2008 were $86.8 million, a decrease of 22.3%, compared to $111.7 million in the second quarter of 2007. The sales decline was largely due to a 31.8% decrease in North American sales compared to the second quarter of 2007. International sales were slightly below prior year, down 2.2% in the second quarter of 2008 compared to the second quarter of 2007.
Wayne Badovinus, Mannatech’s president and CEO commented, “Our U.S. market continues to experience a decline in net sales and recruiting impacted by ongoing litigation and a weaker economy. I have spent my first two months at Mannatech listening to and helping re-energize our independent Associates. Although previously distracted by business challenges, they are beginning to refocus on the business opportunities in the huge wellness market. At the same time, we are moving toward resolution of the Texas Attorney General’s concerns, many of which have been addressed. We have already made the difficult decision to reduce headcount and have taken steps to control operating expenses.”
Mr. Badovinus continued, “Our focus is now on delivering superior Associate and customer service, expanding our research and science, and highlighting our proprietary products that enrich quality of lives. We cannot change the past, but we are committed to creating a new future of opportunity. We believe we have the right products for today’s emerging wellness market. “
Total independent Associate and Member count based on a 12-month trailing period decreased to 554,000 for the second quarter of 2008 as compared to 569,000 for the second quarter of 2007. This 2.6% year over year decrease reflects a 20.6% decrease in new Associates and Members compared to prior year. This was partially offset by higher retention of continuing independent Associates and Members which were up 26,000 in the second quarter of 2008, a 7.0% increase.
Year-to-date sales through June were $178.2 million, down 17.7% from 2007. The company reported a net loss for the six-month period of $12.8 million, compared to last year’s net income of $8.4 million. The diluted loss per share was $0.48, compared to income of $0.31 cents per diluted share for the six-months ended June 2007.
