First Quarter 2005 Results |
|
For the first quarter of 2005, total revenues were $775,000, which represented a decrease of $212,000 from revenues of $987,000 in 2004. Product sales of $505,000 in 2005 decreased $350,000, or 41%, compared to 2004 while licensing and royalty revenues of $270,000 in 2005 increased $138,000 or 105% compared to 2004. The difference in product sales vs. royalty revenues related to a change in business with Estee Lauder in accordance with the new license agreement. The decrease in product sales was offset by increased sales of existing and new products to Genesis, Interwood Marketing and Albrian International Corporation. |
|
Cost of sales increased by $64,000, or 18%, in 2005 as compared to 2004. As a percentage of product sales, cost of sales increased from 41% in 2004 to 82% in 2005. The increase in the costs of sales is a result of products being sold with a lower gross margin and a $92,000 expense related to the metal finishing line that was also included for this quarter. |
|
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $118,000, or 28%, from $429,000 in 2004 to $311,000 in 2005. These expenses were 40% of revenues for 2005 compared to 43% in 2004. The decrease is primarily due to a reduction of salaries and travel and entertainment expenditures in 2005. |
|
Product development and research expenses increased by $22,000 in 2005, or 10%, compared to 2004. There are many new projects being undertaken by the research and development department as a result of new agreements signed in 2004. |
|
Interest income amounted to $3,000 in 2005 compared to interest income of $9,000 in 2004. The decrease in interest income was a direct result of the decrease in our cash balance. |
|
The Company reported a net loss attributable to common stock of $183,000, or $(.02) per share in 2005, compared to net income attributable to common stock of $3,000, or $(.00) per share in 2004. |
"The Company's cost cutting initiatives that began last year have resulted in a minimal loss. The anticipated revenue reduction is attributed to the removal of the exclusivity agreement with our largest customer. This action is allowing the Company to offer our technology to a wide range of new customers in the United States, Europe and Asia, and should result in sustained revenue increases by the end of the year. We will give a more detailed report on today's 10:00 AM conference call and at our Annual Shareholder meeting on Monday, May 23, 2005", stated Frank Gerardi, Chairman, |
