Mannatech Reports Third Quarter 2014 Financial Results

(COPPELL, Texas) November 4, 2014 — Mannatech, Incorporated (NASDAQ: MTEX), the pioneer of nutritional glycobiology, 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 third quarter ended September 30, 2014.

Third quarter net sales for 2014 were $55.6 million, an increase of 25.2% as compared to $44.4 million in the third quarter of 2013. Our net sales increased 22.5% in constant dollars, which is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Dr. Rob Sinnott, CEO and CSO, commented, “The growth in net sales reflects the continued expansion of our business, the recent launch of our Uth skin care product in markets outside of North America, and the anniversary of our loyalty program.” We encourage readers to review Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 for further information regarding the comparability of the growth in net sales.

Net income was $5.1 million, or $1.89 per diluted share, for the third quarter 2014, as compared to net loss of $0.8 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, for the third quarter 2013.

For the three months ended September 30, 2014, our operations outside of North America accounted for approximately 63.4% of our consolidated net sales, whereas in the same period in 2013, our operations outside of North America accounted for approximately 57.8% of our consolidated net sales.

For the three months ended September 30, 2014, Asia/Pacific net sales increased by $8.3 million, or 37.7%, to $30.3 million, as compared to $22.0 million for the same period in 2013 primarily because of growth in the number of active associates and growth in the revenue per active associate and member. In constant dollars, net sales would have increased 31.4% to $28.9 million; the currency impact was primarily due to appreciation of the Korean Won.

For the three months ended September 30, 2014, EMEA net sales increased by $1.2 million, or 32.4%, to $4.9 million, as compared to $3.7 million for the same period in 2013 primarily due to growth in the number of active associates and members. In constant dollars, net sales would have increased 37.8% to $5.1 million; the currency impact was primarily due to the South African Rand.

For the three months ended September 30, 2014, North American net sales increased by $1.7 million, or 9.1%, to $20.4 million, as compared to $18.7 million for the same period in 2013. The net sales growth is due to an increase in the average net sales per active associate and member.

Recruiting increased 0.7% in the third quarter 2014 as compared to the third quarter of 2013. The number of new independent associates and members for the third quarter of 2014 was approximately 29,000, as compared to 28,800 in 2013. The total number of independent associates and members based on a 12-month trailing period was approximately 234,000 as of September 30, 2014, as compared to 239,000 as of September 30, 2013.

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, Deferred Revenue, Gross Profit, and Income from Operations. The following tables include a full reconciliation of actual non-GAAP financial measures to the related GAAP financial measures.
 

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 above 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.

Conference Call

Mannatech will host a conference call to discuss the quarter’s results with investors on Wednesday, November 5, 2014 at 9 a.m. CST, 10 a.m. EST. The live call will be webcast and can be accessed on Mannatech’s website at http://ir.mannatech.com.

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, Deferred Revenue, 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.
