"The STRATA business has been in its current form for about a year. We now have a good sense of what has been working well with the XTRAC business, where the challenges lie, and what actions we need to take to address them," stated Frank McCaney, President and Chief Executive Officer. "I believe that gives us the opportunity to focus on growing the core business through technology enhancements, improved treatment protocols for patients and new marketing initiatives. Importantly, we believe that dermatology office practices are undergoing significant changes, and we plan to take an approach that helps dermatologists and their practices be more efficient, more successful and to better manage the business aspects of their offices."
"Going forward, one of the priorities of our strategic plan for STRATA will be to expand our product offerings," continued Mr. McCaney. "The Company already has significant resources in a dedicated dermatology sales organization, a Field Service force, and Field Clinical Specialists as well as a Call Center for Patient Recruitment and a Reimbursement Hotline. I will be working with our senior management to evaluate these resources and to determine if any further improvements need to be made. Together, I believe our current capabilties are important assets in the dermatology space that can and should be leveraged. Overall, I believe we have the talent, innovation and the infrastructure to enhance our value proposition to our customers and ultimately the value to our shareholders."
