Digirad Corporation Reports 2012 Second Quarter and Six-Month Financial ResultsPositive Trends in Service Revenue and Margins Continue; Share Buyback Accelerates in Q2
POWAY, CA -- (Marketwire - July 26, 2012) - Digirad Corporation (NASDAQ: DRAD) today reported 2012 second quarter revenue of $12.7 million, 2012 six-month revenue of $25.7 million and an ending cash and available-for-sale securities balance of $28.5 million. The net use of cash in the second quarter included $0.5 million for the repurchase of Digirad common stock under the corporate share buyback program, at June 30, 2012.
Digirad CEO Todd Clyde commented, "Progress and growth in the services side of the business for Digirad Imaging Solutions (DIS) continued during the second quarter as that group generated positive cash flow and continued its sequential revenue growth. Demand for our cameras remained stable and the sales funnel continues to be active though sequential revenues in the Product side of the business were down. On the services side, new physician groups are signing up for DIS days as reimbursement has stabilized and the positive clinical and economic drivers continue to motivate existing and new customers to add days of service and to get better utilization of the days they have under contract."
Clyde continued, "Our commercial activities and R&D efforts continue as we explore new ways to drive growth in our Product business -- both in the clinic and hospital settings. In addition, our newly completed Board restructuring has the organization more focused on delivering value to shareholders. To reiterate our goals for 2012, we expect to generate positive cash flow from our DIS business and are focused on increasing sales of both our cardiac and ergo cameras. Management and the Board's newly formed Strategic Advisory Committee continue to explore various strategic options, including examining where our core solid state camera technologies can be applied with greater success in the marketplace."
