Mannatech Reports Record Sales & Earnings for 2005

Annual Operating Income Grows 72%, exceeds $46 million.

Coppell, Texas March 8, 2006 – Mannatech, Incorporated (NASDAQ: MTEX) today reported record earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2005 of $1.03 per diluted share for an increase of 45%, or $0.32 per diluted share as compared to $0.71 for the same period in 2004. In addition, consolidated net sales grew 32% to $389 million compared to $295 million in 2004 and set a new Company annual sales record. Fourth quarter results included record earnings per share of $0.34 per diluted share up 127% from $0.15 per diluted share for the same period in 2004, and consolidated net sales increased by 20% to $101 million as compared to $84 million for the same period in 2004.

Samuel Caster, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, said “Our focus over the past year has included increasing our profitability. Our income from operations for the year ended 2005 increased $19 million, or 72%, to $46 million as compared to $27 million in 2004. We also improved our cost of sales, our commission rate was lowered versus 2004, and we reduced our overhead costs by two full percentage points. These efforts amplified the effects of our sales increase and allowed us to drive our operating earnings to the highest levels Mannatech has yet achieved. Our income from operations for the fourth quarter of 2005 rose to 15% of net sales, which shows the potential we believe our company has.”

Mr. Caster continued, “Our strong performance is a result of our continued effective strategy of delivering exceptional products coupled with outstanding customer service across the globe. We believe our strategy continues to work well and we plan to innovate to bring more value to our investors and customers worldwide. We see continued growth in our future and are optimistic about our business and industry, as we expect to continue our introduction of new products, refinement of existing products, and sustained international expansion.”

During 2005, Mannatech improved its gross profit margin by reducing cost of sales, as well as maintaining control of commissions and incentives and overhead costs. Mannatech also maintained a debt-free balance sheet with a strong cash position of over $73 million. Mannatech declared dividends of $0.29 per share in 2005 as compared to $0.27 per share in 2004. Mannatech intends to continue dividend payments to its shareholders as encouragement of long-term stock ownership.
