MTEXMANNATECH INC Oct 14, 5:18 PM ET

Mannatech says it regained Nasdaq stockholders' equity compliance, pending auditor review

Mixed legal/regulatory Written later 8.01

Mannatech told investors it believes it has regained compliance with Nasdaq's $2.5 million minimum stockholders' equity requirement, after a deficiency notice dated April 20, 2026. The claim rests on a pro forma adjustment tied to a share purchase agreement and a tax ruling, and the auditor review and Nasdaq's own view are still pending, so the listing outcome remains uncertain for shareholders.

  • Stockholders' equity was $(5,223,000) per the 2025 Form 10-K and $(4,970,000) as of June 30, 2026, per the Q2 Form 10-Q, against a $2,500,000 requirement.
  • Mannatech's share purchase agreement gives it 100% direct ownership of Mannatech Swiss Holdings GmbH, which the company says qualifies distributions for a 5% withholding tax rate.
  • Nasdaq will keep monitoring; if the 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2026 does not show compliance, the company may face delisting, with a right to appeal to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel.
  • The Q3 2026 Form 10-Q is expected on or before November 16, 2026, and the pro forma adjustment will be reviewed by the independent auditor.
