SAN DIEGO, CA July 30, 2013 (MarketWired) – Quidel Corporation (NASDAQ: QDEL), a provider of rapid diagnostic testing solutions, cellular-based virology assays and molecular diagnostic systems, announced today financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2013.

• | Total revenues were $29.7 million from $30.9 million in the second quarter of 2012. |
• | Reported GAAP EPS of $(0.05) per share compared to GAAP EPS of $(0.09) per share in the second quarter of 2012. |
• | Received 510(k) clearance from the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Sofia Strep A FIA for use on the Sofia Analyzer. |
• | Completed the acquisition of BioHelix Corporation. |

Second Quarter 2013 Results
Total revenues for the second quarter of 2013 were $29.7 million as compared to $30.9 million in the second quarter of 2012. The decrease in revenues was primarily driven by lower sales of infectious disease products in the quarter, relative to the second quarter of 2012.
Net loss for the second quarter of 2013 was $1.8 million, or $(0.05) per share, compared to net loss of $3.1 million, or $(0.09) per share, for the second quarter of 2012. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding amortization of intangibles, stock compensation expense and the reversal of a reserve for tax contingencies, net loss for the second quarter of 2013 was $1.9 million, or $(0.06) per share, compared to net income of $0.2 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, for the same period in 2012.
“Revenues in the second quarter were relatively flat year-over-year. Gains in new product sales were offset by a lower prevalence of Group A Strep than we saw last April, and the timing of shipments to our U.S. distribution partners. During the quarter, we did achieve a number of significant regulatory and commercial milestones that will build the foundation for future revenue growth as we continue to work toward our 2015 revenue objectives,” said Douglas Bryant, president and CEO of Quidel Corporation. “We are seeing good traction on our recent commercial launch of AmpliVue, our handheld molecular product, and anticipate that our Sofia Group A Strep assay will be the next catalyst to drive Sofia placements in the near term.”
Six Months Ended June 30, 2013
Total revenues were $91.7 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, compared to $68.8 million for the same period in 2012. For the six-month period in 2013, net income was $10.6 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, compared to net loss of $3.1 million, or $(0.09) per share, for the same six-month period in 2012. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding amortization of intangibles, stock compensation expense and certain non-recurring tax items, net income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $14.7 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, compared to net income of $4.0 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, for the first six months in 2012.
