Press Release

Exhibit 99.1

Mannatech, Inc. Pre-Announces Second Quarter, 2007 Results

Preliminary net sales up 6%

Significant earnings decline expected from higher operational expenses

Coppell, TX, July 27, 2007 – Mannatech, Incorporated (NASDAQ: MTEX) today announced that it expects to report preliminary record net sales of $111.2 million for second quarter, 2007, an increase of 6% compared to $104.8 million for the same period in 2006. Preliminary earnings per diluted share for the second quarter, 2007 are expected to range from $0.04 to $0.06 compared to earnings per diluted share of $0.31 in second quarter, 2006. The decrease in earnings was due primarily to higher operating expenses associated with implementation of the company’s new global ERP system, also resulting in increases in commissions and incentives, cost of goods sold, and higher legal expenses. The total independent Associate and Member count based on a 12-month trailing period increased to 569,000 for second quarter, 2007 compared to 526,000 at the end of the second quarter of 2006.

Sam Caster, Chairman and CEO, said, “Our solid top-line growth was driven by an 8% increase in independent Associates and Members in the quarter, coupled with substantial Optimal Skin Care System pack orders. On a quarterly basis, we added the largest number of new independent Associates and Members since the second quarter of 2006. At the same time, we experienced an increase in depreciation and significant unexpected start-up expenses associated with the new global ERP system which went live in early April.”
