First Quarter Fiscal 2010 vs. First Quarter Fiscal 2009 Financial Results
Revenue was $2.7 million, a decrease of $.4 million compared to $3.1 million for the first quarter of 2009. The decrease in revenue for the first quarter of 2010 was due to a decrease of $.4 million in medical device products sales to $2.1 million. Reduced sales of the Company's Lysonix(TM) Ultrasonic Assisted Liposuction, SonaStarA Ultrasonic Surgical Aspirator and AutosonixA Cutting and Coagulating System were partially offset by an increase in sales of the SonicOneA Wound Debridement System and Bone Scalpel(TM).
Net loss from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2010 was $1.2 million, or $.17 per share, compared to income from continuing operations of $108,000, or $.02 per share, for the first quarter of 2009. During the first fiscal quarter 2010, the Company sold all of its issued and outstanding share capital of Labcaire for an aggregate consideration consisting of (i) a cash payment of $3.6 million, (ii) a promissory note in the amount of $1 million payable over 4 years and (iii) commissions on certain Labcaire sales and licenses made through December 13, 2013 not to exceed $1 million in the aggregate. The Company reported a net loss for the first quarter of 2010, including the income from discontinued operations of $448,000, or $.06 per share of $776,000, or $.11 per share compared to net income of $320,000, or $.05 per share, for the first quarter of 2009.
At September 30, 2009, the Company had approximately $5.7 million in cash as compared to $3.4 million in cash as of June 30, 2009.
Commenting on Misonix's financial and operating results, Michael A. McManus, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Our first quarter results showed the continuing effect of the difficult global economic conditions as both Misonix and its partners experienced slower sales. We believe our new product launches and new direct and indirect sales force organization will be successful in growing sales going forward. Our sales force enables us to better control both our sales and margin while also building the Misonix brand as a world leader in Ultrasonic surgical devices.
"Both the Bone Scalpel(TM) for spinal surgery and the SonicOne for wound cleansing and debridement are developing good traction in the market place. We believe the initiatives being implemented with our distribution partners will result in stronger growth for our products in both the cosmetic surgery and neuro surgery markets.
"The transactions we successfully completed over the past few months have created a more focused surgical company, with a stronger balance sheet. These steps, combined with the establishment of a new direct sales force and broad based international distribution, will be key contributors to our future growth."
