(OTCBB: AUXO), a provider of Document Image Management services for Healthcare facilities, reported today financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. The Company's total revenues for the first quarter of 2006 were $2.0 million compared with $784,000 for the first quarter of 2005. The Company had a net loss of $1.2 million for the first quarter of 2006 compared to a net loss of $0.6 million in the first quarter of 2005. Basic and fully diluted loss per share for the first quarter of 2006 was $0.07 compared with basic and fully diluted loss per share of $0.04 for the first quarter of 2005. On January 1, 2006, the Company implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.123R (SFAS 123R), "Share-Based Payment," which requires the Company to recognize an expense for stock-based compensation, including stock options, and record their fair value as compensation expense in the income statement.

As a result of SFAS 123R, the Company's net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 includes $207,000 of additional compensation expenses. For comparability purposes, excluding the effect of SFAS 123R, the loss per share would have been $0.06 in the first quarter of 2006.
