NATURAL HEALTH TRENDS ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER REVENUE ESTIMATE
 
DALLAS, TX, April 13, 2012 -- Natural Health Trends Corp. (OTCQB: NHTC) announced today that its estimated revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 was $9.1 million, a 75% increase over the comparable period a year ago.  The Company also estimates that its deferred revenue, consisting of unshipped product and unamortized enrollment fees, at March 31, 2012 was $1.3 million, compared to $967,000 at December 31, 2011.  In the first quarter of 2011, revenue was $5.2 million, with deferred revenue of $1.6 million at March 31, 2011 and $1.0 million at December 31, 2010.  The increase year-on-year was largely due to the Hong Kong market.
