Mannatech Reports Third Quarter Results

Operating profit turnaround; North America sales decline

 

Coppell, TX, November 6, 2008 - Mannatech, Incorporated (NASDAQ – MTEX), a leading developer and provider of proprietary nutritional supplements, weight management products and skin care solutions, today reported a loss for the third quarter 2008 of $0.4 million or a $0.02 loss per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.7 million or earnings of $0.07 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2007. The company reported an operating profit of $1.1 million compared to an operating profit of $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2007. Operating profit was offset by net foreign currency transaction losses resulting in a pre-tax loss of $0.7 million, as compared to pre-tax income of $2.1 million for the third quarter of 2007.

 

Third quarter net sales for 2008 were $78.0 million, a decrease of 19.5%, compared to $96.9 million in the third quarter of 2007. The sales decline was largely due to a 25.7% decrease in North America sales compared to the third quarter of 2007. International sales were down 8.8% for the third quarter of 2008 compared to the third quarter of 2007.

 

Wayne Badovinus, Mannatech’s president and CEO commented, “We generated an operating profit for the first time since Q3 of 2007 through a reduction in costs. Achieving an operating profit is significant considering sales had declined. We are committed and determined to effectively operate and grow the business while maintaining this lower cost structure for the next quarter.”

 

Mr. Badovinus continued, “Our U.S. market continues to experience a decline in net sales and recruiting impacted by a significantly weaker economy and ongoing litigation. At the same time, our Associates are re-energized by the launch of OsoLean powder, a supplement that promotes fat loss when combined with the OsoLean Plan and proper exercise.* In addition, our Associates are excited about the business building potential from OsoLean powder and our other wellness oriented products. “

 

Total independent Associate and Member count based on a 12-month trailing period decreased to 540,000 for the third quarter of 2008 as compared to 575,000 for the third quarter of 2007. This 6.1% year over year decrease reflects a 28.6% decrease in new Associates and Members compared to the prior year. This decrease was partially offset by higher retention of continuing independent Associates and Members which were up 21,000 in the third quarter of 2008, a 5.5% increase.

 

Year-to-date sales through September were $256.2 million, down 18.3% from $313.5 million in the third quarter of 2007. The company reported a net loss for the nine-month period of $13.2 million, compared to last year’s net income of $10.2 million. The diluted loss per share was $0.50, compared to earnings of $0.38 per diluted share for the nine-months ended September 2007.
