Cadus Corporation Reports First Quarter 2011 Results

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - May 16, 2011) - Cadus Corporation (OTCBB: KDUS) announced today financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2011.

Revenues for the first quarter of 2011 were $0, compared to $100,000 for the same period in 2010. Net loss for the first quarter of 2011 increased to $153,883, compared to a net loss of $71,969 for the same period in 2010. The increase in net loss can be principally attributed to the cessation of the annual maintenance fee from OSI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. after the final $100,000 annual maintenance fee payment in 2010, offset by a decrease in general and administrative expenses. Basic net loss per share for the first quarter of 2011 was $0.01, compared to basic net loss per share for the first quarter of 2010 of $0.01.

As of March 31, 2011, Cadus had 13,144,040 shares outstanding.
