RBC Life Sciences Reports Third Quarter Results
Irving, Texas, November 9, 2011 - RBC Life Sciences, Inc. (OTCQB: RBCL), a provider of proprietary nutritional supplements, wound care and pain management products, today reported an increase in consolidated net sales of 15% for the third quarter of 2011. Net sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 were $7.1 million compared to net sales of $6.1 million for the same quarter in 2010. For the third quarter of 2011, the Company also reported a net loss of $290,000, or $0.01 per share, compared to net earnings of $133,000, or $0.01 per share, for the same quarter last year. Net sales were $21.1 million and $20.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, while the net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $129,000, or $0.01 per share, compared to net earnings of $517,000, or $0.02 per share the comparable period in 2010.
“Net sales in our Associate network channel have been very positive this year growing 54% during the first nine months of 2011. We continue to see strong sales results for our new product, Stem-KineTM, and new Associate growth in excess of 100%,” said RBC Life Sciences President and CEO, Clinton H. Howard. “The net loss in the third quarter resulted mainly from investments we made in a new branch office in Taiwan, which opened October 1, 2011, a Company-sponsored leadership event for the top achievers in our Associate network and expansion of our Medical Products sales force."
Stem-Kine is a dietary supplement that has been shown in published human clinical studies to nutritionally enable bone marrow and other stem cell-producing tissues to increase their production of stem cells, which form the natural repair and renewal system of the body. The Company distributes Stem-Kine under an exclusive license agreement that covers the U.S. and 41 other countries.
