On January 13, 2016, Natural Health Trends Corp. (the Company) issued a press release announcing it strongly refutes false allegations made against it by U.S. and Chinese parties that appear to be working in concert with the goals of improperly influencing the market for the Company's stock and damaging the Company's reputation, brand value and business in China.

In addition, the Company's Board of Directors has authorized an increase in its previously announced stock repurchase program from $15 million to $70 million, $10 million of which has already been completed. The Company will seek to expeditiously pursue the repurchase program, consistent with applicable U.S. securities laws and prudent management of the Company's resources. The press release is attached hereto as exhibit 99.1.
