COPPELL, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mar. 15, 2016--
Mannatech,
Incorporated (NASDAQ: MTEX),
the pioneer of glyconutrition, leading innovator of naturally-sourced
supplements based on Real Food Technology® solutions, and creator of the
M5MSM (Mission 5 MillionSM)
social entrepreneurial movement, today announced financial results for
its fourth quarter 2015.
Fourth Quarter Results
Fourth quarter net sales for 2015 were $45.3 million, an increase of
0.2% as compared to $45.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. The net
sales comparison for the quarter was affected by foreign exchange rates
and new product launches.
Income from operations increased 7.7% to $2.8 million for the fourth
quarter 2015, from $2.6 million in the same period in 2014. Net income
was $1.5 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter
2015, as compared to $1.9 million, or $0.68 per diluted share, for the
fourth quarter 2014.
For the three months ended December 31, 2015, Mannatech’s operations
outside of North America accounted for approximately 58.9% of
Mannatech’s consolidated net sales.
For the three months ended December 31, 2015, Asia/Pacific net sales
increased by $1.6 million, or 7.4%, to $23.1 million, as compared to
$21.5 million for the same period in 2014. Net sales comparisons for the
fourth quarter were affected by the impact of fluctuations in foreign
currency exchange rates. In constant dollars (a non-GAAP financial
measure), fourth quarter 2015 net sales would have been $1.8 million
higher, or $24.9 million. The currency impact was primarily due to
depreciation of the Korean Won, the Japanese Yen and the Australian
Dollar.
For the three months ended December 31, 2015, net sales for Europe, the
Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) decreased by $0.9 million, or 20.0%, to
$3.6 million, as compared to $4.5 million for the same period in 2014.
In constant dollars (a non-GAAP financial measure), net sales for the
fourth quarter 2015 would have been $4.4 million. The currency impact
was primarily due to the depreciation of the South African Rand and Euro.
North American net sales decreased by $0.6 million, or 3.1%, to $18.6
million, as compared to $19.2 million for the same period in 2014. The
decreases were due to declines in associates and members holding active
positions in our network.
The approximate number of new and continuing independent associate and
member positions held by individuals in Mannatech’s network and
associated with purchases of our packs or products as of December 31,
2015 and 2014 were approximately 219,000 and 230,000, respectively.
Recruiting decreased 2.0% in the fourth quarter of 2015 as compared to
the fourth quarter of 2014. The number of new independent associate and
member positions in the company’s network for the fourth quarter of 2015
was approximately 21,400, as compared to 21,900 in 2014.
Year End Results
Overall net sales for the year ended December 31, 2015 decreased $9.8
million, or 5.2%, compared to 2014. During 2015, fluctuations in foreign
currency exchange rates had an overall $11.8 million unfavorable impact
on our net sales. Net income for 2015 was $5.8 million, or $2.14 per
diluted share, as compared to $6.5 million, or $2.40 per diluted share,
for 2014.
For the year ended December 31, 2015, Mannatech’s operations outside of
North America accounted for approximately 59.3% of Mannatech’s
consolidated net sales whereas in the same period in 2014, our
operations outside of North America accounted for 57.5% of our
consolidated net sales.
For the year ended December 31, 2015, Asia/Pacific net sales decreased
by $1.0 million, or 1.1%, to $91.4 million, as compared to $92.4 million
in 2014. Net sales comparisons for the year were affected by the impact
of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. In constant dollars
(a non-GAAP financial measure), sales would have been $8.9 million
higher, or $100.3 million. The currency impact was primarily due to
depreciation of the Korean Won, the Japanese Yen and the Australian
Dollar.
For the year ended December 31, 2015, EMEA net sales decreased by $1.3
million, or 7.7%, to $15.6 million, as compared to $16.9 million, for
the same period in 2014. In constant dollars (a non-GAAP financial
measure), net sales for the year would have been $2.7 million higher, or
$18.3 million. The currency impact was primarily due to the depreciation
of the South African Rand and Euro.
For the year ended December 31, 2015, North American net sales decreased
by $7.5 million, or 9.3%, to $73.3 million, as compared to $80.8 million
in 2014. The decreases were due to declines in associates and members
holding active positions in our network.
Mannatech’s cash and cash equivalents increased by approximately $4.0
million to a balance of $32.0 million at December 31, 2015, as compared
to $28.0 million at December 31, 2014. Also, total shareholders’ equity
increased by $7.2 million to a balance of $38.6 million, as compared to
$31.4 million at December 31, 2014.
Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP, this press
release and related tables include certain non-GAAP financial measures,
including a presentation of constant currency measures. We disclose
operating results that have been adjusted to exclude the impact of
changes due to the translation of foreign currencies into U.S. dollars,
including changes in: Net Sales, Gross Profit, and Income from
Operations.
We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful
information to investors because they are an indicator of the strength
and performance of ongoing business operations. The constant currency
figures are financial measures used by management to provide investors
an additional perspective on trends. Although we believe the non-GAAP
financial measures enhance investors’ understanding of our business and
performance, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered
an exclusive alternative to accompanying GAAP financial measures.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”),
we disclose operating results that have been adjusted to exclude the
impact of changes due to the translation of foreign currencies into U.S.
dollars, including changes in: Net Sales, Gross Profit, and Income from
Operations. We refer to these adjusted financial measures as constant
dollar items, which are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe these
measures provide investors an additional perspective on trends. To
exclude the impact of changes due to the translation of foreign
currencies into U.S. dollars, we calculate current year results and
prior year results at a constant exchange rate, which is the prior
year’s rate. Currency impact is determined as the difference between
actual growth rates and constant currency growth rates.
