"Although sales have been sluggish we are implementing the fundamental programs to stabilize the business and reignite growth," said Dr. Robert Sinnott, Co-CEO and chief science officer of Mannatech. "Some of these exciting programs include our expanded web presence, our recent partnership with the International Sport Karate Association (ISKA) and the launch of our Give For Real program. Our strategy is to fully support our independent Associates whether they are driven by the high quality of our products, the passion to help those less fortunate or business building opportunities."

"We continue to manage our cost of sales, commission costs and operating expenses at efficient levels," said Stephen Fenstermacher, Co-CEO and chief financial officer. "Our balance sheet reflects higher cash and cash equivalents compared to year-end 2009, lower outstanding payables and we continue to have essentially no long-term debt. In addition, we have increased operating profit from our international operations. We also remain on track for our launch of operations in Mexico in the first quarter of 2011."

New independent Associates and Members totaled 22,775 in the second quarter of 2010, compared to 43,953 in the second quarter of 2009. The 2009 recruiting number was high due to the launch of the lower pack cost program.
