Natural Health Trends Corp. has called its 2026 annual stockholder meeting for May 7, 2026 in Hong Kong. Stockholders will vote on electing four directors, approving a new 2026 Equity Incentive Plan, and ratifying CBIZ CPAs P.C. as the independent auditor for 2026.
The proposed 2026 Equity Incentive Plan would authorize 1,100,000 shares for equity awards, which the company states is about 12.8% dilution as of March 19, 2026 and fewer shares than under its expiring 2016 plan. The proxy also details board independence, committee structure, executive and director compensation, phantom equity awards, and pay-versus-performance data showing 2025 net loss of $882,000 and a total shareholder return value of $151.21 on an initial $100 investment.
Natural Health Trends Corp. is asking stockholders to vote at its May 7, 2026 annual meeting in Hong Kong on electing four directors, approving a new 2026 Equity Incentive Plan, and ratifying CBIZ CPAs P.C. as auditor for 2026.
The proposed equity plan would authorize 1,100,000 shares for awards, which the company estimates as approximately 12.8% dilution as of March 19, 2026. This replaces the 2016 plan, under which 1,129,047 shares remained available as of December 31, 2025. The board highlights a three-year average burn rate of 0.0028%, well below the 1.57% ISS industry cap.
The proxy details governance and compensation practices, including phantom equity awards for executives and directors, double-trigger change-in-control severance, and a prohibition on hedging by insiders. For 2025, the president’s total compensation was $1,187,357 and the CFO’s was $480,474, while the company reported net loss of $882 thousand and year-end total shareholder return of 151.21 on a $100 base investment.
Natural Health Trends Corp. (NHTC) files its annual report describing an international direct-selling and e-commerce business focused on “NHT Global” wellness, herbal, beauty, lifestyle and at-home test products. The company operates across the Americas, Greater China, Southeast Asia, South Korea, Japan, India, Europe, Russia and Kazakhstan.
At February 17, 2026, common shares outstanding were 8,577,848. Hong Kong remains critical, generating about 82% of 2025 revenue, with most sales ultimately delivered to members in China. Active members fell from 30,870 to 26,650 year over year, driven largely by declines in Hong Kong and Russia/Kazakhstan.
In 2025 the company relocated its headquarters from Hong Kong to California and implemented a restructuring plan, including workforce optimization, shifting some manufacturing to Asia and office downsizing. Management expects about $1.5 million in annualized cost savings, with most benefits in 2026 and the rest thereafter.
The report highlights several risks: persistent negative operating cash flows in each of the four years ended December 31, 2025; heavy dependence on a few products and single-source suppliers; intense competition in direct selling; and significant regulatory, political, data-privacy and trade risks tied to operations in China and Hong Kong, where evolving direct-selling, data and cyber-security laws and U.S.–China trade tensions could materially affect sales and profitability.
Natural Health Trends Corp’s president and director Chris Tahjiun Sharng filed a beneficial ownership report showing he controls 443,323 shares of common stock, representing 5.2% of the company’s outstanding shares.
His stake crossed the five percent threshold after the company repurchased 2,935,227 shares of common stock on February 17, 2016 from two Broady family trusts, which reduced shares outstanding to 8,577,848. Sharng has sole voting and dispositive power over these shares, holds them for general investment purposes, and may increase or decrease his holdings over time. He reports no transactions in the past 60 days.
Natural Health Trends Corp. entered a negotiated agreement to repurchase 2,935,227 shares of its common stock from the George K. Broady 2012 Irrevocable Trust and the Eleanor Jane Broady 2012 Irrevocable Trust. These shares represented about 25.5% of its outstanding stock and were bought for $2.00 per share, or roughly $5.9 million, funded entirely from existing cash.
The transaction was reviewed and approved by a special board committee and executed under the company’s previously authorized $70.0 million share repurchase program. After the repurchase, Natural Health Trends will have 8,577,848 shares outstanding and expects to have approximately $16.0 million remaining available for future repurchases under the program, inclusive of estimated income tax. Based on the current dividend rate, the reduced share count is expected to lower annual dividend requirements by about $1.2 million.

Natural Health Trends Corp. (NHTC) – Q2 2025 10-Q key takeaways
- Soft top-line: Q2 net sales fell 6% YoY to $9.8 m and H1 sales slipped 4% to $20.6 m, driven by weaker Hong Kong/China demand (83% of revenue).
- Margins resilient: Q2 gross margin held at 73.9% (vs. 74.2% LY) but higher opex kept the company in an $0.3 m operating loss. Net income was a token $15 k (EPS $0.00) vs. $173 k (EPS $0.02) LY.
- Cash drain: H1 operating cash outflow widened to $5.2 m; combined cash & marketable securities dropped to $34.2 m from $43.9 m at YE-24, largely due to $4.6 m in dividends and working-capital uses.
- Balance sheet still debt-free: Total assets $45.2 m, liabilities $16.3 m; equity down to $28.9 m after dividends. Inventories down 15% YTD to $2.8 m as management right-sizes stock.
- Dividend maintained: Paid $0.20 per share in Q1 & Q2; another $0.20 declared 7/28/25 payable 8/22/25. Annualized yield ≈9% at recent prices.
- Concentration & tariff risk: 93% of sales generated outside Americas; 83% routed through HK to China. New U.S./China tariffs, HK political shifts and lack of PRC direct-selling license highlighted as material uncertainties.
Overall: NHTC remains marginally profitable with strong gross margins and no debt, but sustained revenue erosion, negative cash flow and heavy dividend payouts pressure liquidity and heighten execution risk in its key Chinese corridor.
