In the first quarter of 2011 the company reported more than $254,000 in product sales. This level of sales in the first quarter is a company record and is the second consecutive quarter with sales greater than $250,000. It represents a 49% increase over the same period in 2010. The company's rapid growth has continued into the new fiscal year.
The company clarified its sales of the largest single product line Trappsol® HPB. This product line consists of several individual products representing different grades of material. One of the Trappsol® HPB products is a high purity, narrow specification product called Trappsol® Cyclo. Trappsol® Cyclo has received Orphan Drug designation from the U.S. FDA and is used in the experimental treatment of children for Nieman Pick Type C disease. While Trappsol® Cyclo is an important and growing product for the company, its sales in the first quarter were $19,000 as compared to $139,000 for all other Trappsol® HPB products.
Sales of Aquaplex® products continued to grow and showed a large increase due to the receipt of a large order from a large Aquaplex® customer.
The quarterly operating loss fell 95% over the same period in 2010 as the company continued its progress toward overall profitability.
