BioSyent Inc. Releases 2009 First Quarter Financial Results

MISSISSAUGA, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - May 29, 2009) - BioSyent Inc. (“BioSyent”) (TSX VENTURE: RX) today released a summary of its 2009 first quarter financial results.

Total Sales in the three months ending March 31, 2009 were $107,052, down from $287,997 in the first quarter of 2008. The first quarter was impacted by general recessionary conditions in the economy, higher than normal customer inventories of Protect-It® and cold weather in the Canadian prairie region which is a natural deterrent to stored grain infestation.

Gross Margins decreased from 60.2% in the first quarter of 2008, to 39.6% in the first quarter of 2009 primarily due to the selling mix of lower margin products. Management expects that greater sales of higher margin products in the second quarter will see margins improve to more historic levels.

The Company incurred a loss of ($168,197) in the first quarter of 2009 compared to a loss of ($74,067) in the first quarter of 2008.

Total negative cash flow for the first quarter 2009 was ($185,625) versus a negative cash flow of ($247,203) in the prior year period.
