“We are pleased with our fourth quarter performance and sustained profitability throughout the second half of the year as well as generating positive cash flow in the face of macroeconomic challenges. Our confidence as we enter 2010 is supported by two quarters of sequential revenue growth, the strongest balance sheet in iCAD’s history, a highly competitive and broader product line, and prospects of a strengthening economy. We believe iCAD is well-positioned to capitalize on the continuing growth resulting from the transition from film-based to digital technology in the mammography market, and in the ongoing need for more advanced image analysis and workflow solutions to improve the diagnosis and treatment paradigms for leading cancers,” commented Ken Ferry, president and CEO of iCAD.
“iCAD hosted a number of important meetings focused on CAD and other advanced image analysis solutions for the early detection of cancer at this year’s annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA). The RSNA was a very successful event for iCAD as we showcased our technologies and held educational initiatives on incorporating image analysis and workflow improvements into hospitals and free-standing imaging centers. Our oversubscribed symposium highlighted how quantitative image analysis and MRI play an integral role in prostate cancer programs including pre-biopsy guidance, treatment planning, active surveillance and therapy response monitoring.
“We remain encouraged by the significant opportunities for CAD to enhance prostate cancer early detection and treatment. Toward that end, we were delighted to partner with AdMeTech, a non-profit organization with a mission to end prostate cancer as a patient care crisis and socio-economic problem, and with a goal to advance research, education and public awareness to improve the diagnostic paradigm for prostate care. A significant step towards achieving this goal is to secure MRI as a standard of care in diagnosis for the patients who undergo approximately 1.2 million prostate biopsies each year in the U.S.,” concluded Ferry.
Fourth Quarter Results
Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2009 was $8.1 million, a decrease of 13% compared with $9.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2008. This reflects a 12% decline in revenue from the Company’s digital and MRI CAD products to $5.6 million from $6.3 million in the prior year, as purchases of capital equipment by U.S. hospitals remained soft comparatively and were somewhat offset by purchases of the Company’s newer MRI CAD products. International revenue increased 42% to $948,000 from $669,000 in the fourth quarter of 2008.

Total film-based revenue for the fourth quarter of 2009 declined to $1.2 million from $2.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2008. The decline in film based revenue can also be attributed to the softer demand for digital mammography as the majority of film based revenue is derived from sales of the TotalLook MammoAdvantage, a digitizing and comparative reading solution that is sold to further optimize workflow in a digital mammography environment.
Service and supply revenue increased 59% to $1.3 million from $798,000 in the prior year, primarily due to growth in service contract revenue as digital CAD and TotalLook MammoAdvantage systems continue to transition from warranty to service contracts, underscoring the growth in the Company’s installed product base.
The Company maintained a record gross margin of 84.8% for the fourth quarter of 2009 compared with 83.7% in the prior-year fourth quarter, primarily due to optimized pricing and cost management. Fourth quarter 2009 operating expenses decreased to $6.6 million from $7.5 million or 12% reported in the fourth quarter of 2008, due primarily to reduced clinical trial expense associated with the completion of the Company’s colon CAD reader study, marketing and trade show expenses, compensation related expense, travel expenses and depreciation and amortization expenses, offset by increased professional fees. For the fourth quarter of 2009 the Company posted net income, including stock-based compensation expense of $499,000, of $317,000 or $0.01 per diluted share, compared with net income, including stock-based compensation expense of $508,000, of $321,000 or $0.01 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2008.

As a result, we believe iCAD is well-positioned to benefit from improving market conditions.”
2010 Financial Guidance
While iCAD management is becoming increasingly optimistic about the Company’s prospects in 2010, due to the economic environment and associated uncertainty in the healthcare markets iCAD serves, the Company has made a decision to defer providing financial guidance at this time. This decision will be reviewed mid-year and iCAD will provide an update at that time.
